CC Resolution 1998-091^ U RESOLUTION NO.99-91
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF LA QUINTA GRANTING
CONDITIONAL FINAL MAP APPROVAL OF PARCEL 29905, 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 66455(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, the City Council of La Quinta does hereby find, determine, order and
resolve as follows:
Section 1. The final map for Parcel 28805 is conditionally approved provided the
subdivider submits all required items on or before September 17, 1 998.

subdivider has completed the following requirements to the City Engineer's satisfaction.
