Sphere of Influence beyond the current line Ms. Michelotti indicated her question was regarding the Wildland Overlay District that goes beyond the existing Sphere of Influence. Mr. Swift explained where the Sphere of Influence is currently located. The area Ms. Michelotti was questioning is the "planning area". It is not an area that the City is planning for, as it is outside our Sphere and the Urban Growth Boundary line and is not intended to be developed. We are not changing our Sphere of Influence at all. The law allows a city to include in its General Plan any area that it feels is important for its planning purposes. KUki PrOl~rl;y_ on Foothill Road Ms. Michelotti indicated she had concerns regarding designating this property rural density on the lower part. She was felt it was possible the city could be opening itself for litigation. She wanted to leave it low density. She requested that the Kuki property be voted on separately. She did not feel the Council would be setting any high expectations by doing that. She wants the property to remain designated as it was. The geotechnical work will determine what happens there and she did not feel it was appropriate to change the designation. She wanted to be on record as opposing this. Mr. Pieo felt separating the property would invite legal action. Freda Collins, 367 West Angela Street, indicated she had owned the property for a long time and the zoning has been changed three times. There are 231 acres and they only want to develop 33 acres. First they were allowed 35 units, then reduced it to 20, now the city says only 8 units will be allowed. That is not fair. There will not be a big impact on traffic or the environment. She wants the property left as it is. It was moved by Ms. Michelotti, seconded by Ms. Mohr, to vote on the Kuki property separately from the other Foothill Road properties. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Dennis, Michelotti, and Mohr NOES: Councilmember Pico and Mayor Tarver ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Urban Growth Boundary_ Ms. Michelotti wanted the General Plan to include wording that says "and will be reviewed at subsequent comprehensive General Plan reviews" and then continue with the motion as previously voted on. She wanted people to know that when the General Plan is reviewed, the Urban Growth Boundary will be considered for validation or change. If this goes to a vote 07/09/96 -43-
