I
Mr . Engen, Commun. Devel . Dir . , gave staff report and responded
to questions from Council .
Public Comment
Mike Yeomans, co-applicant , spoke in support of this proposal .
He indicated it is an alternative to simply developing the six
existing lots and was designed with the desire to be environmen-
tally sensitive to both the community and Chalk Mtn. He noted
the willingness to dedicate most of the 6.3 ac . to the City as an
open space easement , or the property in fee, whichever the Coun-
cil desires. He urged that Council adopt the condition which
allows for bonding prior to recordation of the map , feeling the
City should require this to assure orderly completion of the
project .
David Foote, Sedes Landscape Architects, reviewed the areas of
I
grading , temporary/permanent revegetation and landscape stan-
dards.

John McNeil , resident , spoke in favor of requiring a dedication
in fee (as opposed to easement) for the property. He noted the
absence of contour lines on the exhibit map , feeling it is dif-
ficult to make a good evaluation of the project .

postpone a decision to allow for further review of the planned
development concept , CC&Rs and landscape plans.
