ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT 12184 - TOWN AND COUNTRY DEVELOPMENT Appeal of Planning Commission decision for a total residential development of 32 lot subdivision on 8.5 acres of land in the R-1 zone located on the east side of Beryl, south of Base Line - APN 208-011-49. On July 14th the Planning Commission conditionally approved Tentative Tract 12184. However, petitions were received by residents outlining ten concerns of property owners surrounding the said tract. On July 27th, Councilman Dahl formally appealed the Commission's decision, and a public hearing date was set for August 18th. In the meantime, staff had met with the developer to discuss the homeowners concerns. Councilman Dahl felt that the City and the Developer had addressed the concerns of the homeowners, and therefore, officially withdrew his appeal on Friday, August 13th. Rick Gomez, city planner, presented the staff report. Although the appeal had been withdraw, several were present to address the issue; therefore, Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing Council was: *Walter Ross, 7474 Lions Street, expressed his thanks for the change in roofing material from shake to a non-combustible material. His primary concern, however, was the block retaining wall which will be built on the eastern side of pinel, on the southern boundary of the property. On the western side of Spinel which is on the southern boundary, there was concern about the grading and what it will look like since there is a sheer cliff area which is about six feet tall. In previous years there have been numerous slides from heavy rains. He suggested that the City staff take another look at this area. Mr. Gomez responded that the concerns which have been presented will be studied in more detail after the hydrology studies have been completed. Regarding the retaining walls on the eastern side, they are a minimum of two foot varying to a maximum of eight foot in order to handle the grade transition from the proposed tract to the surrounding properties. Fences will be taken into consaideration at the time of final review. Staff shares his concerns, and these will be reviewed at the time of the final review once all the reports are in. M~r. Ross stated that they wanted all the homes constructed in one phase. To do grading in phases, he was concerned about the mud once the rains came. Mr. Gomez stated that the phasing of the project will be coordinated with the types of facilities that will have to go in to provide for the property drainage. Mr. Dahl stated that as the initiator of the appeal, he had met, along with staff, with the citizens and listened to their concerns. He also met with the developer who had agreed to meet most of the concerns that were involved. After he had received assurance from staff that everyone of the issues had been addressed, he withdrew his appeal.
