CC Resolution 2008-065RESOLUTION NO. 2008-065
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, GRANTING
CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF A FINAL MAP AND
SUBDIVISION APPROVEMENT AGREEMENT FOR
PARCEL MAP NO. 35900, DAVID CHAPMAN
INVESTMENTS, LLC, AND AUTHORIZING A TIME
EXTENSION FOR SATISFACTORY COMPLETION
OF THE CONDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS TO
VALIDATE THE APPROVAL
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;
and
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.
