Body
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Final Map of Tract No. 6015.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Subdivider, FFDA Properties, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company, (Darius Assemi, Vice-President), has filed for approval, the Final Map of Tract No. 6015, for a 1-lot subdivision for condominium purposes, located on the easterly side of Broadway between Calaveras and San Joaquin Streets on 1.29 net acres.
BACKGROUND
The Fresno City Planning Commission on May 1, 2013 adopted Resolution No. 13212 approving Vesting Tentative Map No. 6015 (Tentative Map) for a 1-lot subdivision for condominium purposes 1.29 net acres at an overall density of 54.26 units per acre. The Fresno City Planning Commission on May 1, 2013 adopted Resolution No. 13210 approving Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-11-163 authorizing the construction of eight fiveplex buildings, three-stories in height, with a total of 40 residential units and adopted Resolution No. 13211 approving Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-12-002 authorizing the construction of six fiveplex buildings, three-stories in height, with a total of 30 residential units. The Tentative Map was approved consistent with the 2025 General Plan, the Central Area Community Plan, the Fulton/Lowell Specific Plan and the Fulton Redevelopment Plan to comply with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act. The approval of Vesting Tentative Map No. 6015 will expire on May 1, 2017. The Final Map is technically correct and conforms to the approved Tentative Map, the Subdivision Map Act and the Fresno Municipal Code. 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.
The Subdivider has satisfied all other conditions of approval and has paid the miscellaneous and development impact fees due as a condition of approval for the Final Map in the amount of $200.00. A Covenant has been executed to defer the formulation of the condominium plan, DCC&R and Homeowner's Association. The City Attorney's Office has approved all documents as to form.
ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15268(b)(3), approval of final subdivision maps is a ministerial action and is exempt from the requirements of CEQA.
LOCAL PREFERENCE
Local preference was not considered because this ordinance does not include a bid or award of a construction or services contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Final Map is located in Council District 3. There will be no impact to the City's General Fund. Approval 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 Public Works Department.
