EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Subdivider, UCP Meadowood III, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, by UCP, LLC, a
Delaware Limited Liability Company, its Sole Member (James E. Jimison, Division President, Central
Valley Division), has filed for approval, the Final Map of Tract No. 5341, Phase 1 of Vesting Tentative
Map No. 5341, for a 161-lot single-family residential subdivision with one outlot for park purposes and
one outlot for pedestrian, bicycle, landscaping and recreational purposes, located on the south side
of East Clinton Avenue between North Locan Avenue and North Temperance Avenue on 40.64
acres.
BACKGROUND
The Fresno City Planning Commission on May 16, 2007 adopted Resolution No. 12686 approving
Vesting Tentative Map No. 5341 (Tentative Map) for a 264-lot single-family residential subdivision on
58 net acres at an overall density of 4.5 dwelling units per acre. The Development and Resource
Management Department on December 18, 2015 approved revisions to Vesting Tentative Map No.
5341 reducing the number of lots to 161 with one outlot for park, pedestrian, bicycle, landscaping and
recreational purposes and one outlot for a future Clovis Unified School District campus. The
Tentative Map was approved consistent with the Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community
Plan to comply with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act. The approval of Vesting Tentative
Map No. 5341 will expire on May 16, 2018. The Final Map is technically correct and conforms to the
approved Tentative Map, the Subdivision Map Act and the Fresno Municipal Code. The provisions of
Section 66474.1 of the Subdivision Map Act require a final map that is in substantial compliance with
the approved tentative map to be approved by the City Council.
The Subdivider has satisfied all other conditions of approval by executing the Subdivision Agreement
for Tract No. 5341, submitted securities in the total amount of $8,494,000.00 to guarantee the
completion and acceptance of the public improvements and $4,247,000.00 for a payment security
and has paid the miscellaneous and development impact fees due as a condition of approval for the
Final Map in the amount of $454,028.89. Covenants have been executed to defer eligible
development impact fees totaling $307,555.64 to the time of issuance of building permit and final
occupancy of each unit and for annual CFD-11 assessment notification, maintenance of landscape
improvements for certain lots, for irrevocable offer of dedication for North Hornet Avenue, for
deferring payment of the Fowler interim fee surety to the time of occupancy and for
acknowledgement of right-to-farm law. The City Attorney's Office has approved all documents as to
form and the Risk Management Division has approved all security bonds and insurance certificates.
Addendum to Subdivision Agreement for Acquisitions of Street Easements. The conditions of
approval of the Tentative Map imposed the requirement to improve six parcels along East Clinton
Avenue. The Subdivider has been unable to acquire and/or facilitate the dedication of such
easements to the City prior to the date the Final Maps are approved by Council. To satisfy such
easement requirements, the Subdivider has executed the Subdivision Agreement with an addendum
that provides for the City to negotiate and/or exercise its power of eminent domain, to acquire the
necessary rights-of-way easements and requires the Subdivider to post an initial deposit in the
amount of $250,000.00 for the estimated acquisitions and legal costs. In accordance with the
addendum for right-of-way acquisition, the City will be proceeding with the acquisition process and
scheduling a separate council agenda item to appropriate the necessary funds, after Council's
approval of the Final Map.

MAINTENANCE DISTRICT: A condition of approval of the Tentative Map is to maintain all
landscaping, trees, irrigation systems and ground level infrastructure located within the street rights-
of-way, landscape easements and Outlots A and B which are officially dedicated for public use. Such
facilities include, without limitation, concrete curbs and gutters, valley gutters, entrance median curbs
and hardscaping, curb ramps and sidewalks, street name signage, street lighting, local street paving,
Outlots A and B amenities and hardscaping, such as benches, picnic tables, trash receptacles,
BBQs, hot coal bins, and concrete walks and pads, and the traffic circle and islands at the
intersection of Locan and Clinton within the Final Map in accordance with the adopted standards of
the City. The traffic circle and islands are not required to be constructed at this time but are included
in the maintenance district to ensure proper maintenance when constructed in the future. The
Subdivider has satisfied the maintenance requirement by annexing the subdivision into the City's
Community Facilities District No. 11 (CFD-11) on June 9, 2016.
The Subdivider has executed the covenant for Maintenance of Certain Improvements and as a
condition of the Subdivision Agreement, is required to provide every prospective purchaser of each
lot of the subdivision the "Notice of Special Tax", in accordance with the provision of Section 53341.5
of the California Government Code. The maximum annual assessment is $718.79 per lot with an
annual 3% adjustment plus the increase, if any, in the construction cost index for the San Francisco
Region.
ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15268(b)(3), approval of final subdivision maps is a ministerial
action and is exempt from the requirements of CEQA.
LOCAL PREFERENCE
Local preference was not considered because this resolution does not include a bid or award of a
construction or services contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Final Map is located in Council District 4. There will be no impact to the City's General Fund.
Approval by the Council will result in timely deliverance of the review and processing of the Final Map
as is reasonably expected by the Subdivider. Prudent financial management is demonstrated by the
expeditious completion of this Final Map inasmuch as the Subdivider has paid the City a fee for the
processing of this Final Map and that fee is, in turn, funding the respective operations of the Public
Works Department.
