DATE: January 28, 2002
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: John B. Bahorski, City Manager
FROM: Douglas A. Danes, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF FINAL TRACT MAP # 16306 - CENTEX
HOMES DEVELOPMENT
SUMMARY OF REOUEST:
It is requested that the City Council find that Tract Map 16306 is in substantial
compliance with the previously approved tentative tract map, approve Tract Map 16306
as presented, and instruct the City Engineer and City Clerk to execute said Tract Map as
required.
BACKGROUND:
On December 5, 2001, a tentative map of the proposed subdivision was approved subject to
Subdivision Laws, City Municipal Code, and to the requirements and conditions contained
in Seal Beach Planning Commission Resolution No. 01-46. The approved tentative tract
map (Tentative Tract Map 16306) established the residential development for the
subdivision of the property into three (3) residential lots, along with three (3) landscape
parcels to be maintained by the Home Owners Association and one (1) twenty (20) foot
wide parcel along the Seal Beach Boulevard frontage for landscaping purposes to be deeded
to the City of Seal Beach but maintained by the Home Owners Association. The property is
located along Seal Beach Boulevard, between the Bixby Old Ranch Town Center and
Rossmoor Center Way/Plymouth Drive.
Approval of the Final Tract Map will formally create the subject lots and parcels, and will
allow the lots to be sold in accordance with the terms and conditions of Tract Map 16306.
In accordance with the Subdivision Map Act, the subdivider has been conditioned to
construct water lines, sewer lines, drainage system, and street frontage improvements
including curb, gutter, sidewak street trees, pavement, and underground utilities. The
subdivider has agreed to these conditions and has provided improvement plans for the
construction of these improvements. Most of the improvements required have already been
installed or are in the process of being installed as part of the previously approved and
adjacent Tract No. 15797 improvements with the exception of landscaping.
The subdivider has provided the City with a letter agreeing to construct the required
landscaping and agreeing that the landscaping will be maintained by the Home Owners
Agenda Item
Association. In order to secure the establishment of the Home Owners Association and the
maintenance of landscaping by the Home Owners Association the "Codes, Covenants, and
Restrictions" for the previous and adjacent Centex Homes Tract 15797 "Codes, Covenants,
and Restrictions" will be amended to incorporate this Tract 16306 Home Owners
Association and landscape maintenance requirements, and other requirements, together into
one overall set of "Codes, Covenants, and Restrictions" for both tracts. The amended
"Codes, Covenants, and Restrictions" will be recorded and will run with the land. Therefore
a formal subdivision agreement is not need for this subdivision.
The Final Tract Map has been reviewed and approved by the County of Orange Public
Facilities & Resources Department for compliance with all required Subdivision Map Act
requirements and by the City Engineer and Director of Development Services for
compliance with all conditions of approval of the Centex Homes Development and
Tentative Tract Map 16306, and it is appropriate for the City Council to approve Tract Map
16306 as presented.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact. All costs will be paid or reimbursed by the developer. Appropriate
plan check and building permit fees will be charged as costs are incurred.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
Find that Tract Map 16306 is in substantial compliance with the previously
approved tentative tract map, approve Tract Map 16306 as presented, and instruct
the City Engineer and City Clerk to execute said Tract Map as required.
NOTED AND APPROVED:
