Second Ave. for public use DATE: October 3, 2017 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Jason Kruckeberg, Assistant City Manager/Development Services Director Philip A. Wray, Deputy Director of Development Services/City Engineer By: Jennifer Nishida, Assistant Engineer SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 7182 ACCEPTING A DEDICATION OF CERTAIN PROPERTY AT 615 SOUTH SECOND AVENUE (12-FOOT WIDTH DEDICATION ALONG PROPERTY FRONTAGE AS PART OF PARCEL MAP 71991) FOR PUBLIC USE Recommendation: Adopt SUMMARY On May 9, 2017, the Arcadia Planning Commission approved Parcel Map 71991 subject to conditions of approval. The parcel map is for a proposed four-unit residential condominium development at 615 South Second Avenue. The map shows a 12-foot wide dedication along the property frontage, which will be used for street and sidewalk purposes. Parcel Map 71991 is now ready for approval, and the dedication is offered on the Map. In consideration of the developer’s offer of dedication, it is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 7182 accepting the dedication as set forth in Parcel Map 71991. BACKGROUND The Arcadia Planning Commission approved Parcel Map No. 71991 with a condition requiring the developer to replace the existing sidewalk and construct new sidewalk along the property frontage, as well as construct a driveway approach and ramp to allow for the future widening of Second Avenue. In addition to constructing all public improvements, the developer was conditioned to dedicate a 12-foot wide strip along Second Avenue to the City for street and sidewalk purposes. Resolution No. 7182 (615 South Second Avenue) October 3, 2017 Page 2 of 2 DISCUSSION The developer has submitted the final parcel map to the City for approval offering the dedication, and has met all conditions of approval for the tentative map. Parcel maps do not require City Council approval in accordance with Section 9105.01.060 Table 5-1. However, since this Parcel Map includes an offer of dedication, the City Council must either accept or reject the offer before the map can be approved. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS The proposed dedication is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15301(c) because the action consists of a legal transfer of ownership, which will result in negligible or no expansion of use. FISCAL IMPACT There will be no fiscal impact incurred by the City as a direct result of this action. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 7182 accepting a dedication of certain property at 615 South Second Avenue (12-Foot width dedication along property frontage as part of Parcel Map 71991) for public use. Attachment: Resolution No. 7182
