The tract map was in addition to the existing approved land division map (LDM 89 -2, four parcels). The City Council approved the tentative tract map and the Major Modification on October 2, 1991. Condition No. 20 of the Major Modification to the Commercial Planned Development Permit states as follows: 20. 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. This condition shall automatically be superseded by a related resolution or ordinance regarding condition compliance for condition compliance for entitlement approvals as adopted by the city council. PP10:27 :9314:29pmA: \B0ND.5XN 1 The attached bond issued by American Motorists Insurance Company in the amount of $ 10,000 was received by the City for satisfaction of Condition No. 20. The City has received notification that this bond will be canceled on November 6, 1993 due for non - payment of the renewal premium. 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. 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. On March 25, 1993, as directed by the City Council, this condition for IPD Nos. 90- 10 through 13 and 91 -3 was deleted based on Code Enforcement ability to recover costs regarding enforcement actions. In accordance with the Council's action to no longer require the $10,000 bond for condition compliance, it is staff's recommendation that this performance bond be exonerated. Recommendation Exonerate the bond. PP10:27:93 14:29pmA:\B0ND.EXN
