Traffenstedt, Acting Director of Community Development DATE: January 30, 2002 (CC Meeting of 2/6/02) SUBJECT: Consider Deferring General Plan Amendment (GPA) Prescreening Application Processing for Two Applications Filed in 2001 (GPA Prescreen 2001 -02 and 2001 -03), One Application Filed in 2000 (GPA Prescreen 2000 -02), and any other Developer - Initiated GPA Prescreening Application until the November 2002 Application Filing Period BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION Two applications were filed for General Plan Amendment Prescreening in November 2001 (General Plan Amendment Prescreen No. 2001 -02; Applicant Grand Moorpark LLC and General Plan Amendment Prescreen No. 2001 -03; Applicant Bill Tanner) and one application was carried over from the prior April 2001 period (General Plan Amendment Prescreen No. 2000 -02; Applicant: DeeWayne Jones). Due to the current staffing limitation in the Community Development Department, staff is recommending the City Council direct staff to postpone processing of the three applications and any new application (not initiated by City) until the November 2002 filing period. General Plan amendment applications are not subject to application processing deadlines. General Plan amendment applications already approved for acceptance or currently in process include the following: GPA No. 93 -03 Hitch Ranch • GPA No.98 -01 SunCal Companies 000296 Honorable City Council February 6, 2002 Page 2 • GPA No.99 -03 West Pointe Homes • GPA No.99 -05 Triliad • GPA No.01 -05 North Park Village LP • GPA No.02 -01 USA Properties Fund, Inc. • GPA Prescreen No. 00 -04 LT Development (approved for acceptance of GPA application) An update to the Open Space, Conservation and Recreation Element of the General Plan was previously initiated and requires completion. In addition, staff anticipates that an amendment of the land use designation (and zoning) for the Toll Brothers project will need to be initiated this calendar year to eliminate an inconsistency created by approval of a modification to the lot lines of the subdivision. Other updating of the Land Use and Circulation Elements of the General Plan is also needed to achieve City Council goals and objectives. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Direct staff to defer processing and consideration of GPA Prescreening Applications until the November 2002 filing period. 000297
