ME
Planning Commission Minutes - April 26, 1994
Hans Grunt Yes.
Commissioner Torliatt - Can you point out the Urban Limit Line? Range of densities
should be emphasized, focus should not be on upper densities.
Commissioner vonRaesfeld - How will the RESA site be accessed?
Planning Director Pamela Tuft - Clarified access through Prince Park.
Tux Tuxhorn - Mr. Wilkinson has no problems with this amendment - original Assessment
District showed four lots.
Commis Torliatt Concerns with density at Urban Limit Line.
Commissioner vonRaesfeld - Have these units been through SPARC?
Pamela Tuft - These units are the same as existing phases.
Commissioner vonRaesfeld These units have front entry garages; rear entry units could be
utilized because of 100 -foot lots; encouraged discussion with developer at staff level to add
more variety with garage entries (at least recess garages).
Commissioner_ Thompson - Because of noise (since ballpark will be behind the units),
garages would work very nicely in rear.
Commissioner Parkerson - Agreed with other Commissioners regarding garage mixture.

Environmental Findings
Based upon the Initial Study and comments received, potential impacts could be
avoided or reduced to a level of insignificance by mitigation measures attached as
conditions of approval. There is; no substantial evidence that the project, as
mitigated, would have a significant effect on the'environment.
2. The project does not have potential to affect wildlife resources as defined in the
Fish and Game code, either individually or cumulatively and is exempt from Fish
and Game filing fees.
Mitigation Measures (Note: the following mitigations shall be applicable to the Parcel Map
and subsequent development):
1. To mitigate the incremental demand for City services, the project proponent shall
pay a Community Facilities Development Fee. Said fee shall be calculated at time
of building permit issuance, and due and payable prior to issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy.
