Item No. 1 PC: 11-7-91 RA-923 (MS-90-79) Page 4 STAFF ANALYSIS TRAFFIC/CIRCULATION: The Department of Public Works' requirement for frontage improvements on the private right-of-way is consistent with actions taken on similar subdivisions and would allow for possible future use of the right- of-way as a public roadway. As part of the discretionary Condition of Approval, the Department of Public Works required the construction of the frontage improvements to be deferred. In its response to the referral of the Revisions of Approved Actions application, the Department of Public Works stated that the requirement for frontage improvements on the private right-of-way may be deleted from the adopted Conditions of Approval. Public Works feels that the right-of-way is not likely to be needed in the future for a public roadway because of the following facts: (1) the limited number of homes tes that will be served by the private right-of-way(see Condition of Approval No. 1(d)), (2)the right- of-way is not located on either a section or quarter-section line, and (3) the right-of-way cannot be provided with secondary access to a publicly maintained roadway. Condition of Approval No. 2(b) (attached) reflects the Department of Public Works' revision to the original Conditions of Approval. With the removal of the requirement for future public street improvements on the private right-of-way, its improvements will be to the standards of the Clements Rural County Fire District (see 'Conditions of Approval'). The actual improvements will be installed prior to the issuance of residential building permits, as stated in the 'Conditions of Approval for RA-923' on Page 5 of this staff report. The deletion of the requirement for frontage improvements along the private right-of-way does not affect the requirement for frontage improvements on McIntire Road. The Conditions of Approval continue to require the deferment of the actual improvements by the execution of a Deferred Frontage Improvement Agreement by the property owner. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Initial Study prepared for this project did not identify any significant, adverse environmental impacts. On the basis of that review, a Negative Declaration was prepared. The Initial Study that was prepared for the Minor Subdivision application (MS-90-79) on November 27, 1990, indicated that, although the subdivision had the potential to result in significant environmental impacts, the mitigation measures that were incorporated into the project would prevent the occurrence of such impacts. On the basis of that analysis, a Negative Declaration was prepared by staff and approved by the Planning Commission, along with a Mitigation Monitoring Program, on February 21, 1991. Staff's analysis of the Revisions of Approved Actions application indicated that no additional adverse environmental impacts beyond those identified by the Initial Study for the Minor Subdivision application would occur as a result of the approval of this application.
