MEMORANDUM
BY 7
TO: The Honorable City Council C/
FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development
DATE: March 18, 1992 (CC meeting of April 1, 1992)
SUBJECT: IPD 89-2 REQUEST FOR EXTENSION ON THE APPLICATION OF
GENERAL OPTICS, INC. (MINOR MODIFICATION NO. 1)
Background
On April 18, 1990, the City Council approved IPD 89-2 for a 32,650
square foot one story industrial building located in the area of
Kazuko Court and Poindexter Avenue in the City of Moorpark. The
Assessor's Parcel Number is 511-0-070-720. A letter was received
by the City from the former property owner/applicant, Marc Annotti,
on April 17, 1991 (one day prior to expiration of the permit)
formally requesting a one year extension of the permit. Condition
Number three of the permit which sets time limits regarding use
inauguration states as follows :
3. That unless the use is inaugurated (building foundation
slab in place and substantial work in progress) not later
than one year after this permit is granted, this permit
shall automatically expire on that date. The Director of
Community Development may, at his discretion, grant up to
one ( 1) additional year extension for project
inauguration if there has been no changes in the adjacent
areas and if applicant can document that he has
diligently worked towards inauguration of the project
during the initial one year period.
The letter from the applicant further indicated that the applicant
was proceeding with working drawings and that there had been no
changes in the adjacent area. Staff sent a response to Mr. Annotti
on April 17, 1991 stating that prior to making a decision on the
time extension, detailed information as to what steps have been
taken during the past year towards meeting "Prior to Issuance of
Zoning Clearance Conditions " would be needed by April 24, 1991.
A response to staff's letter of April 24, 1991 was received by the
applicant on June 4, 1991 (see attachment) indicating that during
the past year the applicant had the architects complete the
production drawings which have been sent to a structural engineer

to complete the engineering. In as much that the information
requested in order for the Director of Community Development to
grant a time extension was received after the initial one year time
frame as addressed in condition No. 3 of the Industrial Planned
Development Permit, staff requested the applicant to provide a
letter requesting that this matter be brought before the City
Council for consideration. A letter requesting that this matter be
brought before the City Council was received by the applicant on
December 5, 1991.
On January 8, 1992, an extension was approved by the City Council
to "use inaugurate" the proposed building until midnight April 18,
1992 .
Discussion
On March 13, 1992, the new owner, General Optics, Inc . , filed Minor
Modification No. 1 to Industrial Planned Development Permit No. 89-
2 requesting that Condition No. 3 be Modified to allow two (2 )
additional years for use inauguration, plus a one ( 1) year staff
authorized extension. Staff concurs that an extension of time in
order to "use inaugurate" is appropriate.
Staff suggests that the Community Development Committee consider
recommending to the City Council additional conditions that should
be placed on the Minor Modification similar to conditions that
would be placed on approved permits today. An example of possible
new conditions might be: 1) a requirement for a faithful
performance bond, 2) a condition informing the applicant that a
deposit for condition compliance review is required, and 3) a
condition informing the applicant that the Ventura County APCD will
need to review any proposed use. In addition, the Committee can
consider the length of the proposed time extension.
Staff Recommendation
Refer the matter to the Community Development Committee for a
recommendation to the City Council pertaining to: a) any new
and/or revised Conditions of Approval that should be placed on this
Minor Modification, and b) the length of the time extension in
which to "use inaugurate" Industrial Planned Development Permit No.
89-2 .
