QUINTA, MR. ANTHONY REED
WHEREAS, the City Council conducts only two regular meetings per month and
the time interval between these meetings occasionally creates an undUe hardship for
business enterprises and individuals seeking approval of subdivision maps; and
WHEREAS, the City Council as a matter of policy allows a subdivider to have
City staff present the map for approval consideration when the requisite items
necessary for final map approval are nearly, but not completely, finished thus yielding
to the subdivider additional production time for preparation of those items; and
WHEREAS, the subdivider has demonstrated to City staff and the City Council
that it has made sufficient progress with items required for final map approval, and it
is reasonable to expect the subdivider to satisfactorily complete the items, including
'-" City staff review time, within thirty (30) days without adversely impacting other
ongoing work commitments of City staff;
WHEREAS, Section 66458(b) of the Subdivision Map Act grants the City
COuncil broad authority to authorize time extensions regarding final map approval, or
disapproval, upon receiving it fOr consideration; and
WHEREAS, the City Council relies on professional City staff to review all
required .items for conformance with relevant requirements, and it is therefore
appropriate for the City Council to approve the final map subject to review and
confirmation of the required items by professional City staff, within a reasonable period
of time as specified by the City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La
Quinta, California, as follows'
