City Manager Nealis provided an overview of the status of this project and reported that staff
is working with the applicant and the County of Los Angeles regarding the "dip" in the
proposed lot line for Lot Number 3 that had been addressed at the previous public hearing.
He indicated that staff is attempting to negate the necessity for this lot line configuration to the
satisfaction of the County, the applicant and the City Council. The lot line proposed for
reconfiguration, if approved, would eliminate the necessity for a modification in this case as
well as ensure that a north/south equestrian trail would remain within an easement. Mayor
Pernell requested that staff continue to pursue this option. This instruction was concurred by
members of the City Council in attendance.
Councilmembers in attendance viewed the proposed roadway design, lot designs and grading
plan for the project. In discussing grading, Councilmembers directed that the applicant be
permitted to revise the grading plan to minimize grading by allowing the balanced cut and fill
ratio to be established on a per Subdivision project, rather than per lot basis.
Following review of subject property, Councilmember Lay requested that the applicant
consider not raising proposed Pad Number 2 by approximately 2-1/2 feet and consider using
excess soil from proposed Lot Number 1 for soil needed for proposed Lot Number 3. The net
result would be a reduction in grading and a reduction in cut for a roadway as it accesses
proposed Lot Number 3. The applicant concurred with t�is suggestion and agreed to work
with staff in this regard.
Following discussion, members of the City Council continued this public hearing to the
regular City Council meeting to be held at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, November 13, 2000 at 2
Portuguese Bend Road,Rolling Hills.
