The original lot is currently being subdivided into three <br />parcels with existing residences located on Parcels A and C.

Additionally, San Mateo <br />County Fire/California Department of Forestry has determined that a fire hydrant is <br />required in the immediate area to mitigate an existing public safety hazard. The need <br />for the new hydrant qualifies as an exceptional or extraordinary condition and will <br />require water service from the City.

Property owner has already applied for a Construction Permit with <br />the City to replace the watermain. <br />LAFCo requires City Council approval by resolution when a request is made to extend <br />water service outside the City's jurisdictional boundaries. Staff recommends that the <br />City request LAFCa approval for extension of water service outside jurisdictional <br />boundaries pursuant to Government Code Section 56133. The proposed water service <br />extension will provide water connection and service to Parcel B of a newly subdivided <br />lot located at 445 West Maple Way, Woodside (APN 068-100-210}. Service extension <br />includes installation of a new fire hydrant. Service extension is subject to the following <br />conditions and fees: <br />1.
