CONSENSUS: It was determined by Mayor Buchan that it was the consensus of the Council to establish June 28th and 29th as budget study session dates and reserve July 8th as a third date if necessary. ,:,' MEMO 3/23/93 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6.B. Councilman Greenalch reported on the C/CAG meeting he attended on March 11, 1993: (704-04) 1) C/CAG prepared a report on the federally mandated National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) for storm water discharges accelerated by the state of California's requirements, designed to remove pollutants in storm drains. Fiscal Year 1993/94 will cost the cities and the county $365,000 but 1994/95 will cost $2 to $3 million. C/CAG proposes assessing $1.50 per parcel (Redwood City has 18,865 parcels) and using the current Flood Control District (which has authority to raise revenues) to administer the program. Cities are responsible for their share, but can choose other fund raising means if they want. Severe fines and prison terms will result for non-payment. (1204-03) 2) CICAG heard Mr. Jay White of San Carlos Airport Pilots Association present the same report presented earlier this evening on the Hastings Condominiums by Woodson Development at 300 Redwood Shores Parkway, and made the following recommendations: a) Redwood City should require an navigation" easement be granted to San Mateo County as a condition of approval; or b) If the City did not require an navigation" easement, then at least it should require the developer to include appropriate language in the project's CC&R's that would properly warn owners of aircraft noise issues and other nuisances. An avigation easement would fully waive the right of legal action due to the effects on the property caused by the operation of the aircraft at San Carlos Airport. REPORT: Senior Planner Tom Passanisi, March 22, 1993, with history of planning process for Hastings Condominiums beginning in September, 1991. (203-09) Councilman Greenalch advised that the Redwood City General Plan had not been submitted to the Airport Land Use Committee for a ruling stating the General Plan was in conformance with the Airport Land Use Plan for the County of San Mateo, but that fact was not necessarily ad rem to the issue at hand. Councilman Greenalch described General Plan Amendment approval by Council in October, 1991 of the subject property, but advised the amendment was not submitted to the ALUC at that time as it should have been, and had it been submitted it would have been ruled as in conformance. As the project went through the approval process the Redwood City Planning Department and the San Mateo County Planning Department made two proposals to deal with the noise issue: 1) grant an avigation easement, or 2) include language in the CC&R's. The owner of the parcel agreed to change the CC&R's but not approve an avigation easement, and staff proceeded thinking the CC&R option was acceptable to all the interested parties. On March 4th, the matter was brought before the ALUC and a strong case was made that language in the the CC&R's was Regular Meeting Minutes MINUTE BOOK NO. 51 March 22, 1993 Page 6 Page No. 349 - -,.. ,.. ,-.
