Item No. 17. (continued out of order) There being no objection, Mayor Greenalch ordered that item 17. be considered out of order at this time. Community Development Director Pawloski presented the subject information report using slides of the exhibits in the Appendix. Aaron Hayes, property owner of Lots 16, 17 and 18 on Laurel Way, distributed photography of the property, stating he wishes to build three homes on the lots and does not believe poor soil conditions exist on his property and that he would be able to meet all Code requirements. Pat Fellowes, builder and developer for Mr. Hayes, said that he believes the Hayes lots are buildable both economically and because the lots are not as steep as others in the neighborhood. Mr. Fellowes said that all infra- structure for the lots is in place. In response to questions, Mr. Hayes said he does not believe an environmental impact report is needed and that his property is about 50,000 sq. ft. In response to question, Planning Director Patterson said that the property involved is only about 27,000 sq. ft and is subject to slope density requirements. In response to question, City Attorney Schricker said that City liability could be substantial if building permits were issued and the houses later slipped; and stated that with regard to Mr. Hayes' use of "grand fathered" lots, that the lots remain as subdivided before annexation from the County to the City so the subdivided lots are "grand fathered ", but that City zoning and slope density requirements prevail now. Violet Hayes, 719 Crescent Avenue, San Mateo, inquired as to the portion of Laurel Way which is paved and asked to be allowed to apply for a building permit. CONSENSUS: Mayor Greenalch determined it to be the consensus of Council that Council will proceed with regard to future development of Laurel Way as outlined in the Report of the Community Development Director of September 1, 1988 with staff authorized to proceed accordingly. City Manager Smith stated for the record that an environmental impact report will be expected to be a joint effort with the property owners who wish to develop property on Laurel Way.
