Previous Mitigated Negative Declaration:
On April 13, 2021, the City Council considered and adopted a previous Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) along with a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for Tentative Map 2019-002 and related Planned Unit Development Permit 2019-001.
The extension of time does not change the scope of the project from its initial approval. Therefore, the Time Extension request does not require further environmental analysis under CEQA.
For the Time Extension to Tentative Map 2019-002:
Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 31-313.2, The City Planner, Planning Commission, and/or City Council, as applicable, may approve a request for an extension if it finds that the map is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning. The City may impose only those conditions of approval that were imposed for the initial map approval, unless the developer consents to the imposition of additional conditions.
The original approval on April 13, 2021, found that the tentative map is consistent with both the General Plan and the Zoning Code. To date, there are no substantial changes to the General Plan or the Zoning Code applicable to the project. No additional conditions of approval to Tentative Map 2019-002 are required. All remaining terms, requirements, and conditions of the tentative map remain in full force and effect. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 31-313, the City may only approve an extension of up to 36-months from the original 24-month approval date of a Tentative Map. Because Tentative Map 2019-002 was approved on April 13, 2021, with a 24-month expiration date and two previous one (1) year time extensions were approved on April 10, 2023, and April 12, 2024, only one additional Time Extension to April 13, 2026, may be approved by the City.
PASSED AND APPROVED this 12th day of August 2025 by the following vote:
AYES:
NOES:
ABSENT:
ABSTAIN:
APPROVED
