Landscape Maintenance District: A condition of approval of the Tentative Map is to install and maintain the landscaping and irrigation system in the landscape easements along South Armstrong and East Hamilton Avenues for this tract. The Subdivider has elected to satisfy the maintenance requirement by annexing the subdivision into the City's Community Facility District No. 2 (CFD-2). This condition will be satisfied with the anticipated annexation of this subdivision into CFD-2 which the Council is scheduled to act on July 18, 2006 prior to the Council acting on this final map item.
