The Subdivider has paid all fees now due to satisfy the conditions of approval of the Tentative Map. The City Attorney's office has approved all documents as to form. 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. BACKGROUND The Fresno City Planning Corrlmission on March 4, 2009 adopted Resolution No. 12932 approving Vesting Tentative Map No. 5951/UGM 1-lot condominium subdivision for a 88-unit senior citizen housing development on 4.38 acres at 20.09 dwelling units per acre. Attached is the Fresno City Planning Commission report which provides the project details, staff analysis, environmental findings and consistency findings for Vesting Tentative Map No. 5951/UGM with the 2025 General Plan and the Bullard Community Plan to comply with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act. ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL MAP OF TRACT No. 5951 March 1, 2012 Page 2 of 2 The approval of Vesting Tentative Map No. 5951/UGM on March 4, 2009 established the initial expiration date of such approval to March 4, 2011 which falls within the period July 15, 2009 to January 1, 2012 to qualify for an additional 24-months extension pursuant to SMA Section 66452.22. Accordingly the expiration date of the approval of the tentative map is extended 24-months to March 4, 2013. Additionally, the State of California on July 13, 2011 approved Assembly Bill No. 208 to provide for a 24-month extension of the expiration date of eligible approved tentative maps. As an eligible approved tentative map, the expiration date of the approval of the tentative map has been extended 24-months to March 4, 2015. The Subdivider has satisfied all other conditions of approval and has paid the miscellaneous and development irripact fees due as a condition of approval for the Final Map in the amount of$200.00. The Subdivider has elected to satisfy the maintenance requirements for the landscaping and irrigation systems within the landscape easements and all other required improvements by a homeowner's association in lieu of annexation into the City's Community Facilities District. FISCAL IMPACT There will be no impact to the City's General Fund. Affirmative action 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 Development and Resource Management Department.

The subject property is located within the boundaries of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Bullard Community Plan, which designate the subject property for Medium Density Residential (4.99-10.37 dwelling units/acre) planned land uses. Pursuant to Table 2 (Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Section 12-403-B-1 (Zone District Consistency Table) of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC), the existing R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district is consistent with the Medium Density Residential planned land use designation. However, the existing density of this project (20.09 dwelling units per acre) does not conform to the Medium Density Residential planned land use, which allows 4.99-10.37 units per acre. While the project density exceeds the density allowances of the Medium Density Residential planned land use designation, Conditional Use Permit No. C-06-003 (in accordance with Section 12-304-B-13 of the Fresno Municipal Code and California Government Code Sections 65915 through 65917) authorized a density bonus for the senior citizen housing development on the subject property. The proposed project is well under the density allowed for "Housing for Senior Citizens" pursuant to Section 12-304-B-13 of the Fresno Municipal Code. As the subject property has been developed utilizing density bonus provisions for senior citizen housing developments, all of the dwelling units on the subject property are required to be reserved for "senior citizens" regardless of whether rented or owned by occupants. If approved, the one common lot condominium "airspace" subdivision proposed by Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM will only facilitate individual ownership of respective dwelling units, which exist on the subject property; and establish, or provide for, jointly owned areas and facilities on the subject property. REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04, 2009 Page 2 Therefore, Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM may be determined to be consistent with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Bullard Community Plan, pursuant to Section 12-403-B-2 of the FMC. The proposed project is supported by staff and the District 2 Plan Implementation Committee.

Section 15301 (Class 1/Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines exempts from the provisions of CEQA, projects involving negligible or nor expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination; including but not limited to, division of existing multiple family or single-family residences into common-interest ownership. Section 15315 (Class 15/Minor Land Divisions) of the CEQA Guidelines exempts from the provisions of CEQA, the division of property in urbanized areas zoned for residential use into four or fewer parcels when the division is in conformance with the General Plan and zoning, no variances or exceptions are required, all services and access to the proposed parcels to local standards are available, the parcel REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04, 2009 Page 4 was not involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous two years, and the parcel does not have an average slope greater than 20 percent. BACKGROUND/ ANALYSIS Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM has been filed by Regal Development Group on behalf of Westwood Bluffs, LLC., property owner, and pertains to approximately 4.38 acres of property located on the north side of West Herndon Avenue between North Warren and North West Avenues. Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM proposes a one-lot subdivision of the subject property for condominium purposes. The subject property is developed with an 88-unit multiple family residential planned development for senior citizens in accordance with Conditional Use Permit No. C-06-003 (approved February 27, 2006). Conditional Use Permit No. C-06-003 was approved for the senior housing development as a revised exhibit to Conditional Use Permit No. C-02-034 (approved July 29, 2002), which originally authorized a mixed use development incorporating the subject senior housing development as well as approximately 27,200 square feet of commercial space and approximately 18,500 square feet of office space on approximately 10 acres of land. The overall density of the existing senior citizen housing development is approximately 20.09 dwelling units per acre. The subject property is currently zoned under the R-1/EA/UGM/cz (Single Family ResidentiaUExpressway Area Overlay/Urban Growth Management/with conditions of zoning) zone district classification. The subject property is located within the boundaries of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Bullard Community Plan, which designate the subject property for Medium Density Residential (4.99-10.37 dwelling units/acre) planned land uses. Pursuant to Table 2 (Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Section 12-403-B-1 (Zone District Consistency Table) of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC), the existing R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district is consistent with the Medium Density Residential planned land use designation. However, the existing density of this project (20.09 dwelling units per acre) does not conform to the Medium Density Residential planned land use, which allows 4.99-10.37 units per acre. While the project density exceeds the density allowances of the Medium Density Residential planned land use designation, Conditional Use Permit No. C-06-003 (in accordance with Section 12-304-B-13 of the Fresno Municipal Code and California Government Code Sections 65915 through 65917) authorized a density bonus for the senior citizen housing development on the subject property. The proposed project is well under the density allowed for "Housing for Senior Citizens" pursuant to Section 12-304-B-13 of the Fresno Municipal Code. As the subject property has been developed utilizing density bonus provisions for senior citizen housing developments, all of the dwelling units on the subject property are required to be reserved for "senior citizens" regardless of whether rented or owned by occupants. For the purposes of defining a "senior citizen" the Fresno Municipal Code refers to Section 51.3(b) of the California Civil Code, which states that a "qualifying resident" or "senior citizen" means a person 62 years of age or older, or 55 years of age or older in a senior citizen housing development. The only exceptions to the definition of a "senior citizen" under the California Civil Code are those made for "qualifying residents", which may be: a spouse, cohabitant, or person providing primary physical or economic support to the senor citizen who are of 45 years of age or older; or, a disabled person who is a dependent child or grandchild of the senior citizen. REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04,2009 Page 5 If approved, the one common lot condominium "airspace" subdivision proposed by Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM will only facilitate individual ownership of respective dwelling units, which exist on the subject property; and establish, or provide for, jointly owned areas and facilities on the subject property. The City of Fresno and Regal Development Group have been prudently entertaining complaints received from neighboring property owners respective to interface issues that have arisen between the subject property and adjacent residences. Of particular concern is the height of the solid masonry boundary wall located on the north and west property lines of the subject property. Due to the grading of the subject property, which occurred prior to its development in order to address on-site drainage issues, a grade differential now exists between the subject property and adjacent single family residential properties. This grade differential creates a privacy issue for neighboring residents in that the solid masonry wall along the north and west property lines of the subject site is no longer of a height which provides for sufficient or appropriate privacy screening for the rear yards and residences of neighboring residential properties. On February 24, 2009 a neighborhood meeting was held involving representatives of the subject property, neighboring residents, and City staff. At the neighborhood meeting it was generally agreed that the most appropriate course of action for mitigating the interface issues between the subject property and adjacent residential properties (in order to protect the privacy of the neighboring residents) is for the owner of the subject property to add an additional two courses of solid masonry block to the existing block wall located along 'the north and west property lines. Two courses of masonry block would provide anywhere from 20-24 inches of additional height to the existing block wall; thereby accommodating the differences in grade between properties through the provision of a wall height adequate to screen visibility. It should be noted that pursuant to Section 66427 of the Subdivision Map Act, "a map of a condominium project, a community apartment project, or of the conversion of five or more existing dwelling units to a stock cooperative project need not show the buildings or the manner in which the buildings or airspace above the property shown on the map are to be divided, nor shall the governing body have the right to refuse approval of a parcel, tentative, or final map of the project on account of the design or the location of buildings on the subject property shown on the map that are not violative of local ordinances or on account of the manner in which airspace is to be divided in conveying the condominium." Conditions of Zoning The following Conditions were established for the subject property and adjacent commercial and office zoned properties through City Council approval of Rezone Application No. R-02-006 on August 27, 2002 (Ordinance No. 2002-46): 1. The multiple family residential portion of the project shall be developed as a "Housing for the Elderly' project as defined in Section 12-105-H-14 of the Fresno Municipal Code. 2. The off-sale (per State ABC regulations) of alcoholic beverages and the sale of pornographic material shall be prohibited on the subject property. 3. Arcades shall be prohibited on the subject property. 4. The drug store and fast food restaurant (including drive-through window) shall close at no later than 10:00 p.m. These hours may be extended to 11:00 p.m. upon approval of the Director of REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04, 2009 Page 6 the Planning and Development Department and the Police Chief. The drive-through window for the drug store may be operational 24 hours a day. 5. The exterior appearance of the various buildings of the project shall be designed in a compatible manner as determined by the Planning and Development Department Director. 6. The fast food restaurant shall not contain any outdoor display area. 7. A substantial portion of the residential and office buildings of the project shall be completed prior to the development of more than fifty percent of the commercial buildings, as determined by the Planning and Development Department Director. 8. A traffic signal shall be installed on West Avenue at the proposed southerly access point to 'the subject property. The City traffic Division shall reevaluate the traffic flow at this intersection, approximately one-year from the date of the installation of the traffic signal. 9. The intersection at the proposed southerly access point to the subject property shall include a 100-foot long northbound left turn lane on West Avenue. 10.The Traffic signal at West and Herndon Avenues and the proposed signal at the southerly site access point and West Avenue shall be coordinated to optimize signal operation efficiency. 11. Lighting plans for the commercial portion of the project shall be sufficient for security purposes as determined by the Planning and Development and Police Departments. 12.A grocery store/supermarket shall not be permitted on the subject property for a period of thirty years from the date of the approval of this project. Compliance with the abovereferenced conditions of zoning on the subject property has been demonstrated through the existing development of the subject property and adjacent properties. Furthermore, as the use of the subject property is required to remain exclusively for the purposes of a senior housing development, it may be determined that the conditions of zoning for the subject property have been met with respect to the proposed subdivision of the subject property. Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System Traffic Capacity Access to the subject property is provided from North West Avenue in accordance with the planned development approved by Conditional Use Permit No. C-02-034 (approved July 29, 2002). Access has been relinquished for the frontage of the subject property along West Herndon Avenue. The 2025 Fresno General Plan Circulation Element designates North West Avenue as a collector street and West Herndon Avenue as an expressway. Right-of-way dedications have been made along the entirety of the subject property's frontage and all off-site improvements, for and along adjacent public streets, have been installed in accordance with City of Fresno requirements. The Public Works Department Transportation Planning Section has reviewed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM and has determined that the proposed subdivision will have no further effect on streets adjacent to or near the subject property beyond those which have previously been evaluated and/or mitigated respective to the existing planned development on the subject property. REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04, 2009 Page 7 The area street plans are the product of careful planning that projects traffic capacity needs based on the densities and intensities of planned land uses anticipated at build-out of the planned area. These streets will provide adequate access to, and recognize the traffic generating characteristics of, individual properties and, at the same time, afford the community an adequate and efficient circulation system. Public Resources and Services The Public Utilities Department has determined that the existing private sanitary sewer and existing onsite public water main services are sufficient to continue to serve the project. The City of Fresno Fire Department has conditioned the proposed with a requirement for recordation of a covenant for maintenance of fire sprinkler systems on the subject property. Implementation of the 2025 Fresno General Plan policies, mitigation measures of Master Environmental Impact Report No. 10130 and the Water Resources Management Plan will provide an adequate, reliable, and sustainable water supply for the project's urban domestic and public safety consumptive purposes. The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD) has indicated that permanent drainage service is available to the subject property through existing on-site drainage facilities. California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 6, Office of Intergovernmental Relations has reviewed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM. Within its memorandum dated November 17, 2008, Caltrans indicates that it has no comments respective to the proposed tentative tract map. Tentative Tract Map Findings The Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code Section 66400 et. seq.) requires that a proposed subdivision not be approved unless the map, together with its design and improvements, is found to be consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan (Finding No. 1 below). State law further provides that the proposed subdivision map be denied if any one of the Finding Nos. 2- 5 below is made in the negative. In addition, State law requires that a subdivision be found to provide for future passive and natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision development (Finding No. 6 below). 1. The proposed subdivision map, together with its design and improvements, is consistent with the City's 2025 Fresno General Plan and Bullard Community Plan which designate the site for Medium Density residential planned land uses. Pursuant to Fresno Municipal Code Section 12- 304-6-13 the project design meets the density and zoning ordinance criteria for development in this plan designation. 2. This site is physically suitable for the proposed type and density of development, because 'the previously imposed conditions of approval ensure adequate access and drainage on and off the site. 3. The proposed subdivision design and improvement is not likely to cause substantial and considerable damage to the natural environment, including fish, wildlife or their habitat, because REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM March 04, 2009 Page S the proposed one-lot subdivision pertains to "airspace" for the purposes of a condominium project for an existing development. Furthermore, the entirety of the area in which the subject property is located has been developed with urban uses. 4. The proposed subdivision design and improvements are not likely to cause serious public health and safety problems, because the previously imposed conditions of approval have shown and will ensure that the subdivision conforms to city health and safety standards. 5. The proposed subdivision design will not conflict with public easements within or through the site, because the project design and previously imposed conditions of approval will assure noninterference with any existing or proposed public easements. 6. The design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive and natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision, because of the appropriate use and placement of landscaping plant materials and because of the orientation of the existing buildings on the subject property. The subdivision map, subject to the recommended conditions of approval, complies with the design and property development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and local Subdivision Ordinance. Based upon the plans and information submitted by the applicant and the recommended conditions of project approval, staff has determined that these findings can be made. Action by the Planning Commission regarding the vesting tentative tract map is final unless appealed in accordance with the Fresno Municipal Code, Section 12-1019. CONCLUSION/ RECOMMENDATION The appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with respect to its consistency with goals and policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan the Bullard Community Plan; its compatibility with surrounding existing or proposed uses; its avoidance or mitigation of potentially significant adverse environmental impacts; and, its compliance with the Subdivision Map Act. These factors have been evaluated as described above and by the accompanying environmental assessment. Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM is appropriate for the project site. Staff, therefore, recommends that the Planning Commission: sysr 1. APPROVE the environmental finding for Environmental Assessment No. T-58944hat the project proposal is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Sections 15301 (Class 1/Existing Facilities) and Section 15315 (Class 15/Minor Land Divisions) of 4the CEQA Guidelines. 2. APPROVE Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5951/UGM subject to compliance with the Conditions of Approval dated March 04, 2009.

FID does not object to the proposed development with the following comments: 1. FID's Bullard No. 124 pipeline traverses the subject property in an exclusive easement recorded on November 17, 1993 as Document No. 93177748, Official Records of Fresno County, and modified February 7, 1994 as Document No. 94020155, Official Records of Fresno County. 2. FID requires its easements be shown on the map with proper recording information and delineation and that FID be made a party to signing all plans which affect its easements and canal/pipeline facility and also be made a party to signing the final map. 3. In 2004 during review of Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 2004-08 FID required that the then applicant be required to replace the existing 48" diameter non-reinforced cast-in- place monolithic concrete pipe (CIP-MCP) due to it being extremely prone to cracking, subsequent leakage and no longer meeting FID standards. After an appeal by the applicant FID researched its records and found that this section of pipeline had not been a problem with leaks and maintenance in the past and the replacement requirement was waived at that time. 4. FID retains its right to excavate in its easement to facilitate any future repairs to the pipeline as provided for in Section I Document No. 93177748 recorded November 17, 1993 referenced above.
