Body
ANALYSIS:
Tentative Tract Map (TTM) 36541 is a three-phase subdivision of approximately 311 acres into 237 single-family residential lots, originally approved by the City Council on May 1, 2013. The project is located on the south side of Green River Road, beyond Calle Del Oro, and west of Paseo Grande, in the Sierra Bella Specific Plan (SP04-001), as shown on Exhibit “A.”
TTM 36541 qualified for a legislative extension approved by the State, which extended its expiration to May 1, 2017. CalAtlantic Group Inc., the owner of TTM 36541, is now requesting a discretionary one-year extension of time, as shown on Exhibit “B,” which is allowed per the Subdivision Map Act and Title 16 of the Corona Municipal Code.
At the request of the owner, Condition of Approval numbers 67 through 81, and 99 through 101 were modified. Condition of Approval numbers 67 through 81 were modified to reflect the availability of the Zone 5 waterline to serve the project. This waterline was recently extended to Green River Road at Paseo Grande as part the Foothill Parkway Extension Project. Condition of Approval numbers 99 through 101 were modified to require the developer to annex into Community Facilities District (CFD) 2016-1 (Public Services), and CFD 2016-3 (Maintenance Services) or form an individual maintenance CFD in lieu of annexation into Landscape Maintenance District 84-2 Zone 10 and Lighting Maintenance District 2003-1. These CFDs were not in existence at the time of original entitlement, and annexation into these CFDs is consistent with other currently entitled residential projects in the City of Corona.
These modified conditions of approval will read as follows:
Condition numbers 67 through 69, 72 through 74, and 81 will be deleted.
