SUBJECT: FINAL APPROVAL OF PARCEL MAP NO. 33375 – THE PROJECT SITE IS LOCATED AT THE SOUTHERLY TERMINUS OF COPPERFIELD AVENUE AND WESTERLY OF HAWARDEN DRIVE ISSUE:
Adoption of the Resolution of Acceptance for final approval of Parcel Map No. 33375, and acceptance of the agreement and sureties for faithful performance, construction of improvements, and the labor and material bond in accordance with Section 18.220.020 of the Riverside Municipal Code.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council:
Adopt the Resolution of Acceptance for final approval of Parcel Map No. 33375; and Accept the agreement and sureties for the installation and faithful performance of improvements, and the labor and material bond in accordance with the improvement plans for the development of Parcel Map No. 33375.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the development process to subdivide a parcel into four or fewer parcels in the R-1-13,000 – Single Family Residential Zone, a tentative parcel map (map) is required to be approved by the Planning Commission. Once a map is tentatively approved, subsequent map finalization and recordation requires staff to determine if the conditions of approval (conditions) have been satisfied. Recordation of the map requires City Council approval if dedications are to be accepted by the City Clerk.
The subject property consists of two parcels located at the southerly terminus of Copperfield Avenue and westerly of Hawarden Drive, in Ward 3. Parcel Map No. 33375 is a proposal by Uttampar, Inc., to subdivide 1.6 vacant acres into four single family residential parcels. On July 7, 2005, the City Planning Commission approved Parcel Map No. 33375 (Planning case P05-0360), subject to the completion of conditions (Attachment 6).
DISCUSSION:
Staff has determined that the developer has satisfied the conditions required for final map approval and recommends the final map be approved pursuant to Section 18.090.060(C) of the Riverside Municipal Code. However, if the City Council determines sufficient/significant map conditions have not been fulfilled, they may deny approval of the map with a finding identifying the incomplete conditions.
The Community & Economic Development Director concurs with the recommendations noted above.
