DUARTE ROAD CEQA: Exempt Recommendation: Approve SUMMARY Tentative tract maps and final maps are required for all subdivisions of condominium units. In accordance with Arcadia Development Code Section 9105.05.050, the City Council shall approve a final map if it conforms to all the requirements of the subdivision regulations of the Development Code and the Subdivision Map Act. Tentative Tract Map No. TTM 20-05 (83240) was conditionally approved by the Planning Commission on March 23, 2021, to develop a 13-unit multi-family residential condominium subdivision at 901 W. Duarte Road. The proposed Final Map conforms to the Development Code and Subdivision Map Act. It is recommended that the City Council approve Final Tract Map No. 83240, along with a Categorical Exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), for a 13-unit multi-family residential condominium subdivision at 901 W. Duarte Road. BACKGROUND According to Development Code Section 9105.03.110, tentative tract maps are valid for 24 months after the effective date. The original expiration date was April 3, 2023, but a one-year extension was subsequently approved, which extended the map to April 3, 2024. The extension was granted due to delays in processing the Final Tract Map by the property owner, although construction was diligently being pursued on the project. The Applicant received approval from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works for the map on April 18, 2023.
