16. PUBLIC HEARING
A. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPEAL NO. 23001: MINOR
CHANGE NO. 1 TO TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 37211 (TTM37211M1), A REQUEST TO MODIFY CONDITION NO. 3.15 REGARDING ELECTRICAL
LINE UNDERGROUNDING ALONG PACIFIC AVENUE AND DETERMINE
THAT NO FURTHER CEQA REVIEW IS REQUIRED PURSUANT TO CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15162(a); LOCATION: SOUTHEAST CORNER OF CANAL STREET AND OPAL STREET (APNS: 177 -130-007 & 177 -142- 018); (APPLICANT: SEQUANATA PARTNERS, LP)
Roberto Gonzales, Senior Planner , presented the staff report. Mr. Gonzalez provided an overview of the project and the minor change request, which relates to the waiver of the undergrounding of the electrical lines due to the substantial amount of work and costs. Mr. Gonzalez reported that s hortly after the Planning
-11-
Commission denied the applicant’s request for the minor change, the applicant submitted an a ppeal to the City Council. Since this time, staff developed an undergounding alternative which would allow Pole 1 and Pole 2 to remain on the site, however, Pole 1.5 would be installed undergound. In addition, the utility lines between poles 1 and 2 (240 linear square feet) must be installed undergound. This prevents the more expensive work of undergrounding across SR 60. Mr. Gonzalez noted that there is one caveat to the plan which requires approval of Southern California Edison.
Further discussion followed.
Mayor Chris Barajas opened the public hearing.
Paul Onofer, representing Sequanata Partners ( applicant), spoke in support of staff’s recommendation. He offered to answer any questions.
There being no further comments, the public hearing was closed.
Mayor Chris Barajas commended the developer for funding a very expensive sound wall which will benefit not only the new residents, but the existing residents as well.
The project was also conditioned to include a new sewer line if the existing residents choose to switch from septic to sewer.
Council Member Armando Carmona stated that he would vote no on the appeal, as he is opposed to lessening conditions for developers. He commended the Planning Commission for sustaining conditions that improve the quality of life for the community.
A motion was made by Council Member Brian Berkson, seconded by Council Member Leslie Altamirano , to approve the appeal to the Planning Commission decision and proceed with t he implementation of the alternative remedy proposed by the staff. This alternative entails the specific requirement of undergrounding utilities exclusively along the frontage of the property. As a result, staff will prepare a drafted resolution for the Ci ty Council's consideration at the upcoming regular meeting.
