Discussion On December 4, 1992, the applicant applied for Minor Modification No. 1 to these Industrial Planned Development Permits requesting that Condition No. 42 be removed from the Conditions of Approval. Condition No. 42 states: 42. Prior to the issuance of a zoning clearance, a Surety Performance Bond in the amount of $10,000 shall be filed and accepted by the Director of Community Development. The Director of Community Development, may, through a public hearing to be heard before the City Council recommend that any or all of the funds in the Performance Bond be forfeited for noncompliance of the Conditions of Approval or for some other just cause.

WOZNIAK Mayor Mayor Pro Tem Councilmember Councilmember Councilmember This condition shall automatically be superseded by a related resolution or ordinance regarding condition compliance for entitlement approvals adopted by the City Council. The applicant indicates that the imposition of this Condition for an indeterminate time is costly and makes it more difficult to sell or lease buildings. Also, the City Code Enforcement Officer has the ability to file a law suit to the extent there is any violation of City codes or Conditions of Approval. Staff Analysis At the time this Condition of Approval was placed on commercial and industrial projects, the City needed the applicant to provide a financial security as an incentive to adhere to the conditions of approval. At the time this condition was first imposed on discretionary projects, Code Enforcement did not have the authority to issue citations. If the applicant failed to adhere to the Conditions of Approval, the bond could be forfeited by City Council for noncompliance of the Conditions of Approval or some other just cause. Since the imposition of this Condition, Code Enforcement has obtained to ability to cite property owners for violations of the Municipal Code or noncompliance with Conditions of Approval of Discretionary projects such as IPD's, CPD's and RPD's; however, Zoning Enforcement activities cost the City money that is typically not reimbursed by the applicant. Therefore, staff is of the opinion it is necessary to require the applicant to submit a Performance Bond to ensure compliance of the Conditions of Approval, but that this requirement should be for a specified period of time such as was imposed on General Optics (IPD 89 -2 Minor Modification No. 1). Therefore, staff intends to impose the following change to Condition No. 42: 42. Prior to the issuance of a zoning clearance, a Surety Performance Bond in the amount of $10,000 shall be filed and accepted by the Director of Community Development. The Director of Community Development, may, through a public hearing to be heard before the City Council recommend that any or all of the funds in the Performance Bond be forfeited for noncompliance of the Conditions of Approval or for some other i u s t cause. -th-*i.� ; nt€::> hAll.. b.<.. n .;::.fwd:h....a..;t�.....:1'; >a This condition shall automatically be superseded by a related resolution or ordinance regarding condition compliance for entitlement approvals adopted by the City Council. PP12:08:92 /5:67pmh: \MZNMODI.CC 2 The Director of Community Development has reviewed the proposed Minor Modification and plans to Conditionally approve it. Pursuant to Resolution No. 88 -523, the Director has the authority to approve Minor Modifications. This matter is being presented to the City Council as a courtesy. In the event the City Council wishes to appeal the Director's decision, it may do so. Should the City Council desire to appeal, it should set a public hearing date. The next available meeting date would be the regular meeting of November 18, 1992. If the City Council takes no action, the Director's decision stands.
