Amendment No. 2004 -05, Zone Change No. 2004 -04, and RPD
No. 2004 -06
DISCUSSION:
For several years, the City has had two ad hoc committees that
periodically meet with two ad hoc committees consisting of two
Moorpark Unified School District (District) Board members on a
variety of matters. These two ad hoc committees are:
1. Casey Road Site and City Participation in Advance Planning
of School Facilities (Mayor Hunter and Mayor Pro Tem
Harper); and
2. City /MUSD Facilities and Programs (Mayor Pro Tem Harper and
Councilmember Millhouse)
The Casey Road Site Ad Hoc Committee has met numerous times with
District representatives as well as with Essex /Colmer. The
discussions with the Essex /Colmer representatives included
potential development plans as well as several points that would
be included in a Development Agreement for the proposed project.

over two years and recently partnered with Essex to complete the
purchase.
To continue the progress on the proposed development and avoid
any potential Brown Act concerns, it is recommended that Mayor
Hunter and Mayor Pro Tem Harper be appointed to an ad hoc
committee to negotiate a Development Agreement with Essex /Colmer
for the proposed project. Tentative schedules indicate the
proposed project and Development Agreement could be considered by
the Council in September 2005.
In addition, when the list of City Council assignments is next
updated, reference to the Casey Road Site will be deleted from
the title of the ad hoc committee referenced in the first
paragraph of this report.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Appoint Mayor Hunter and Mayor Pro Tem Harper as the Ad Hoc
Committee for the Essex /Colmer Development Agreement.
