The public hearing was closed.
The Board discussed the matter.
Supervisor Schroder quesioned staff as to whether this applica-
tion is consistent with the General Plan.
Karl Wandry, Community Development Department, responded that
staff had reviewed this with the wording in the General Plan and are
satisfied that this proposal is in compliance with the General Plan.
Supervisor Schroder also commented on other issues including road
overlay, the park dedication fee being set at $1670, buffering and
landscaping for the ranchette area, and credit for the park area in
the development.
Supervisor McPeak commented on the issue of development of the
area west of Camino Tassajara.
Supervisor Torlakson commented on the road benefit fee agreement,
open space and buffering, and buyer notification of adjoining land
uses.
Supervisor Schroder recommended approval of the application as
amended, allowing the 11 lots proposed for elimination by the Planning
Commission to be placed in other areas of the subdivision to recover
them as requested by the applicant, requiring the applicant/developer
to pay $1670 per lot for park dedication fees and those fees to be
dedicated to the agency providing the park service, giving credit for
the two acre park in the development, and assuring protection of the
ranchette area with appropriate fencing and landscaping.
Supervisor McPeak requested that Supervisor Torlakson' s recommen-
dation relative to buyer notification of uses be included in the
motion.

motion due to lack of addressing the road and open space issues.
