Puerto Los Caballeros, LLC, is required to install approximately 3,200 linear feet of 6-inch waterline extension to provide adequate water service to the proposed commercial development of 39.75 acres. Per UDC Section 8.1 Puerto Los Caballeros, LLC is obligated to construct waterline public improvements. Mr. Green presented an aerial view of the subject property to show the location and the boundary of the River Acres Water District. River Acres Water System, the utility provider, has authorized service to the property. River Acres Water System will approve plans for construction and inspect and accept the public improvements. Approved construction drawings must be provided by owner for review and acceptance by the City’s Development Services Engineer. Since the subject property is being served by River Acres Water System, and the City will not be accepting the infrastructure, the owner requests deferment of the public improvements without a financial security. Staff confirmed that the subject property is not in the Certificate of Convenience and Necessity. Staff recommends approval of the proposed Deferment Agreement as the requirements are in compliance with the UDC Section 8.1. The approval of the Deferment Agreement is expressly conditioned upon the Owners’ compliance with the following requirements: a.Public improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the River Acre Water System engineering standards in effect at the time of construction and in accordance with the construction drawings. Detailed construction drawings must be provided by the Owner for review by the City’s Development Services Engineer. b.No building permit for vertical structures shall be issued for all or any portion of the real property that is subject of the Plat until the Deferred Improvements are constructed, installed in working order, and accepted by the River Acres Water System in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.

After Commissioner comments/questions concluded, Chairman Villarreal opened the public hearing. Richard Bell at 10014 Compton Road addressed the Commission to state his opposition.

The applicant, Victor Nazari at 4105 Rayado Creek, addressed the Commission in support of his request. He stated the proposed development will add value to the area as the homes to be built will be high-end and fit the aesthetics of the nieghborhood. With no one else coming forward the public hearing was closed. A motion to approve Staff’s recommendation for item “9” was made by Chairman Villarreal and seconded by Vice Chairman Crull. The motion passed with Commissioner Schroeder voting “no”. Director's ReportVII.
