The project site is located west of Walnut Canyon Road and approximately one -half mile north of Casey Road. On September 13, 1993, the Governor signed SB -428 (Thompson) which extended by 24 months the expiration date of any tentative subdivision map for which a tentative map had been approved that had not expired on the effective date of the bill. The extension approved by SB -248 is in addition to any other extension of the expiration date provided for in the Subdivision Map Act. For VTT Map No. 4620, the effect of SB -428 is that the expiration date was automatically extended from January 9, 1994 to January 9, 1996. In addition to the extension granted under the State legislation noted above (SB 428) and pertaining provisions of the Map Act, the City Council granted an additional two year extension to the Vesting Tentative Map on December 6, 1995, which extended the PP11: 06:9511:37pmA: \6DEC95. CC 1 V ,j q e Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 4620 City Council Staff Report August 19, 1998 Page No: 2 expiration date to January 9, 1998. Subsequently, an additional time extension of one year was granted to all Tentative Tract Maps by Assembly Bill (AB 771) extending this map to January 9, 1999, a total of eight (8) years after the initial project approval. DISCUSSION: On May 21, 1998, West Pointe Homes applied for a second two year time extension to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 4620 which if granted would extend the expiration date to January 9, 2001, (10 years after initial approval). This request is being made by the applicant for the purpose of allowing time to process a proposed revised project without recording the Vesting Tentative Tract Map. On June 17, 1998, the City Council approved initiation of a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change and concurrent processing of a Tentative Tract Map, Residential Planned Development Permit, and Development Agreement for a new proposed development of up to 250 dwellings. City Council also directed consideration of alternative densities ranging from 66 to 250 dwellings. Should the Council approve the two year extension to the map, the new expiration date would be 2001. The Subdivision Map Act also allows the applicant to apply for one final extension of one (1) year which would bring the total requested extensions under the Map Act to five (5) years, which is the maximum allowed. The total period for extensions was recently extended to five years, in addition to the legislative extensions from SB428 and A3771. Should an additional one year extension be granted in the future, the expiration date for this map would be January 9, 2002, which is 11 years from the original approval date. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution No. approving a two year time extension of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 4620, to expire on January 9, 2001. Attachments: 1. Resolution 2. Letters from applicant dated May 20, and June 4, 1998, requesting a two year time extension. 3. Location Map 4.

June 04, 1998 Mr. Paul Porter City of Moorpark 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, CA 93021 RE: TRACT 4620 -TIlAE EXTENSION REQUEST Dear Mr. Porter Please accept this letter as an augment to our original Time Extension Letter dated May 20, 1998 (enclosed). The purpose of this letter is to more fully explain our request for a two-year time extension. In conjunction with our proposed revised project (66/ acre lots to 250 /10,000 SF lots) the City has agreed to process and approve an additional two-year time extension This was based on allowing us time to process our proposed revised project and not moving forward on the recordation of our current 6615acre project. The last time extension was approved on December 6' 1995 which the City granted a two-year time extension expiring on January 9, 1998. This in concert with the State AB 771, gave all TTM an additional year bringing the date of our Tract Map to January 9, 1999. The additional two-year time extension will extend the TTM to January 9, 2001. (see enclosed City of Moorpark letter dated November 21,1997). Given the above, we would respectfully request that the time extension be heard the same night as the Pre - Application request (currently scheduled for June 17,1998) so if the extension is not approved, we will have time to record the current 66 /5acre project prior it's January 1999 expiration Thank you for your consideration, please contact me at (805) 407 -3400 if you have any questions Sincerely Vince Daly Forward Planner C.
