Item No. 2. M . City Council Staff Report December 14, 2005 TPM 30581 Time Extension PRIOR ACTIONS TAKEN ON THE PROJECT On September 18, 2002, the City Council approved TPM 30581. On March 2, 2005, the City Council approved a one-year time extension from September 18, 2004 to September 18, 2005 for TPM 30581. On November 23, 2005, the Planning Commission voted 6-0 (1 absent) to recommend that the City Council approve a one-year time extension from September 18, 2005 to September 18, 2006 for Tentative Parcel Map 30581 (TPM 30681). BACKGROUND AND SETTING The applicant submitted a request for time extension of TPM 30581 on August 29, 2005, prior to the expiration date of the map on September 18, 2005. Section 66452.6(e) of the Subdivision Map Act states that, "...Prior to the expiration of an approved or conditionally approved tentative map, upon an application by subdivider to extend that map, the map shall automatically be extended for 60 days or until the application for the extension is approved, conditionally approved, or denied, whichever occurs first..." The project site consists of one lot and is designed IND (Industrial) on the General Plan and zoned PD-158 with an underlying zoning classification of M-1-P (Planned Research and Development zone). The parcel map creates two new parcels. Parcel 1 will be 2.72 acres in size and will have the existing Stroke Activity Center located on it. This parcel meets all Zoning Ordinance requirements and the existing Stroke Activity Center building will comply with all property development standards, including setbacks. The small masonry storage structure located on the northwest corner of Parcel 1 will be demolished as it was constructed on the future property line being created by this proposal. The structure will need to be removed prior to approval of the final map. Parcel 2 will be 2.02 acres in size and is vacant. Parcel 2 also complies with all zoning requirements.

The applicant is requesting the time extension in order to allow additional time to continue working with staff towards the completion of the final map process. There are no specific findings for extension of the map. In reviewing the request, staff considered if the following circumstances have changed such that the map's approval might need reconsideration: 1. The project's overall plan and lot configuration, 2. The uses and development of the surrounding area, and 3. The applicable policies of the General Plan, zoning ordinance and other regulations. No significant changes have occurred in these factors to warrant reconsideration of the map's approval and staff recommends approval of the extension request. Further, no new conditions are recommended to be added and no existing conditions are recommended for revision or amendment. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15315 (Minor Land Divisions) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, whereby this project meets the conditions for a Minor Land Division as follows: a) The parcel is located in an urbanized area zoned for industrial use; b) The subdivision consists of dividing one parcel into two parcels; c) The subdivision is consistent with the General Plan and zoning; d) No variances or exceptions are required for the subdivision; e) All services and access to the proposed parcels are available; f) The parcel was not involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years; and g) The parcel does not have an average slope greater than 20 percent.
