6.1.F. - Page 1 <br />REPORT <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the City Manager <br />August 27, 2018 <br />SUBJECT <br />Parcel Map for 114 Hazel Avenue <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />By motion, approve the Parcel Map for lot merger at 114 Hazel Avenue. <br />BACKGROUND <br />The 114 Hazel Avenue site consists of seven separate parcels owned by one owner, <br />Sparkfactor Design Inc. The seven parcels and previously vacated portions of Hazel <br />Avenue and Madrone Street are occupied today by an approximately 10,000 square <br />feet one-story commercial office building that crosses multiple parcel lines. Although <br />previous applications to the City between 1980 and 1984 had proposed to merge the <br />seven parcels and vacated streets into one parcel, no parcel map was ever filed and the <br />site remained unmerged as several individual parcels covered by one building. In 1981 <br />the City vacated portions of Hazel Avenue and Madrone Street, and Sparkfactor <br />Design, Inc. has provided documentation that they own the fee interest in these areas <br />today. <br />The City's Subdivision Committee, consisting of one member of the Planning <br />Commission and two designated staff members, is the advisory agency designated to <br />approve tentative parcel maps. The tentative parcel map for 114 Hazel Avenue was not <br />associated with nor did it require any further discretionary approvals from the City, and <br />therefore the Subdivision Committee was the only advisory agency required to act on <br />the tentative parcel map. On May 31, 2017, the Subdivision Committee approved the <br />Tentative Parcel Map for the lot merger. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The Parcel Map includes the merger of the seven existing parcels and previously <br />vacated portions of Hazel Avenue and Madrone Street into one parcel, and the <br />
