this project as SP and as an individual tract tonight they don't feel that it is
adequate. In item 14, Quimby regulations for the 59
units there should be 7.79 acres parkland, there is none dedicated.
If you look at the overall SP there is 72.57 acres required for Quimby and there
is only 15.4 acres proposed. This is a shortage of 57.1 acres overall.
They would prefer parkland would be set aside. This matter has been
discussed with attorneys and Bedford regarding parkland.
Ib/PCMin/080591 14
Commissioner Hoagland asked if they have made their demands known to
applicant?
Gary King responded that to his knowledge as far back as last November the
park issue was raised.
Commissioner Chiniaeff discussed reasons why this matter had not been settled
and asked why it wasn't settled before coming before the planning commission.
Chairman Hoagland opened the public hearing at 9:25.
Robert Kemble, Robert Bein, William Frost and Associates applicant
representative, Bedford Properties, stated these particular maps are part of an
overall Specific Plan, the Specific Plan does have a comprehensive recreation
and open space plan. The maps are consistent with the Sp and all they have
done is move parcels around. The maps been in the City for over a year and
the City has not asked for dedication of parkland on this map or the next two
coming up.
Commissioner Chiniaeff responded that bottom line, the three maps have a
park problem. Two residential one commercial, needs to go back to staff
to solve problem. Chairman Hoagland agreed the project needs to be
continued.
Commissioner Fahey suggested that all the matters that were of concern
should be discussed now. Mr. Kimble said Traffic Signals fees were a problem.
Chairman Hoagland closed the public hearing at 9:45.

Chairman Hoagland opened public hearing at 9:50 and made a motion to

seconded by Commissioner Blair.
Commissioner Chiniaeff requested clarification that the same problems exist.
Gary King said they are dedicating 2.2 acre park they are dedicating a
1.6 acre park in this tract, we feel that we would accept this 1.6 acres the
addition shortfall .4 acres would be the in lieu fee. Tract is not a
problem.
Robert Kemble, representing applicant. Comments remain the same as previous
project. They are disappointed, but will accepts staff continuance. Traffic
signals are also a problem.
Commissioner Fahey withdrew motion, seconded person Commissioner Blair
withdrew motion.
Doug Stewart gave corrections to Condition//77.
Robert Kemble gave two oppositions:
1. Public facilities opposition letter.
2. Requires Traffic Signal in addition to mitigation fees. //77 and condition
#48. Feel they are burdened twice.
Doug Stewart informed commission that this is a long standing discussion
8 or 9 months. Condition #48 is standard condition of approval of traffic signal
mitigation. He gave the commissioners a definition of offsite regional impact
fees: Fee are put into a pot for entire region and mitigation fees are collected.
There happens to be adjacent to this tract a regional signal that Traffic
Mitigation fees may be used for, however, other off site regional impacts are
generated by this development. All these fees are put into a pot and
administered by the City for regional signals, defined primarily as intersections
of circulation element streets. All these monies collected are used for signals
that benefit everyone. In this case the signals in condition No.77 the demand
is only generated by the approval of this project and only benefits this
development.

Commissioners, Fahey, Blair, and Hoagland, and Chiniaeff still have concerns
