CC Resolution 1999-085d_[ RESOLUTION NO.99-85
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF LA QUINTA GRANTING
CONDITIONAL FINAL MAP APPROVAL OF TRACT 25389-4, 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.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of La Quinta does hereby find, determine,
order and resolve as follows:
Section 1. The final map for Tract 25389-4 is conditionally approved provided
the subdivider submits all required items on or before August 5, 1 999.
Section 2. The City Council's approval of the final map shall not be considered
valid until the City Engineer has signed the map indicating that it conforms with the
tentative map, the Subdivision Map Act and all ordinances of the City.
