BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
In August, 1989 the Danville Town Council and Board of Supervisors
entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to undertake a joint-
jurisdiction General Plan and project review for a 148-acre site
(known as the Del Chase property) straddling the boundary of the
County and the Town in the Alamo area. The Plan review was
initiated at the request of the property owner, New West Federal
Savings & Loan/American Real Estate Group. One purpose of the MOA
was to allow both jurisdictions to play decision-making roles in
the development review and to allow "for simultaneous and
independent processing of the application between the two
jurisdictions with coordinated, consistent findings and conditions
of approval. "
A project was submitted by New West which was the subject of an
Environmental Impact Report and which was reviewed by the San Ramon
Valley Regional Planning Commission and Danville Planning.
Commission. In November 1992 the two Commissions voted to
recommend approval of the project for a maximum of 58 units based
on a site plan which had been prepared by staff.

2 .
In December, 1992 the Board of Supervisors voted to support the
recommendation of the two Planning Commissions but with certain
modifications. Some of the major modifications were as follows:
1. In appearing before the Board, the applicant volunteered a
contribution of $1, 000 per (unincorporated) lot to the County
Homeless Shelter Improvement Trust Fund. In consideration of
this contribution, the Board increased the number of approved
residential lots by one to a maximum of 59 .
2 . The Board approved an alternative site plan proposed by the
applicant similar to one which had been rejected by the two
Commissions.
3 . Consistent with current County fee rates, the Board reduced
the park dedication fee contribution from the augmented rate
recommended by the two Commissions.
Finally, the Board directed staff to report back on the Danville
Town Council's review of the Alamo Springs project when that body
had had an opportunity to consider the project.
Danville Town Council Action
The Danville Town Council considered this project in January and
February, 1993 . The Town Council approved the project, but
Danville's action more closely resembles the approval of the two
Planning Commissions. The Town Council approved the site plan
recommended by the two Planning Commissions (i.e. , maximum of 58
lots) . The Council action provided for the same (augmented) park
dedication fee rate recommended by the two Commissions. The
Council approval action was also made contingent on the County
modifying its approval to be consistent with the Town of Danville's
action.
New Prosect Submittal
On February 17 , 1993 , New West filed a new application (File #2006-
93) with the Community Development Department to amend the Board's
December approval of the Alamo Springs Final Development Plan and
Vesting Tentative Map. The new application is seeking to amend the
County's approval to make it consistent with the project action of
the Town of Danville.
The applicant has indicated to staff that even though they are
consenting to a scale-back of the project that they still intend to
honor their previous commitment to contribute to the Homeless
Shelter Improvement Trust.
The new application is expected to be scheduled in the near future
for noticed public hearing before the Zoning Administrator.
