After public hearing and careful review of the record and staff recommendations, the Planning Commission approved a Vesting Tentative Map for the above project on May 5, 1999. The action of the Planning Commission was based on its findings that the proposed subdivision will have no significant environmental impact and is in conformance with all State and local laws and regulations and applicable General Plan Elements.

The Final Map conforms to the Tentative Map. The License Division reports that the developer has agreed to pay the condominium tax. The project has been approved by the Los Angeles County Engineer’s office and certified by the City Engineer for conformance with the Tentative Map and conditions thereon, the Subdivision Map Act and local ordinances. The City Attorney's office has approved the covenants, conditions and restrictions for the Final Map as complying with the conditions of the Tentative Map and applicable laws.

According to the City Engineer, a Subdivision Improvement Agreement is not required for this project.

The recommendation presented in this report does not have a budget or fiscal impact.

It is recommended that the City Council approve the Final Map by adoption of the accompanying resolution.
