At this time we cannot predict with great certainty whether MCWD approval will result in changes that impact the plat layout, but it seems likely that such changes would be relatively minor. General Development Plan Approval with Conditions The Concept Plan Approval resolution stated that General Development Plan approval, including preliminary plat approval, would not be granted until MCWD permits are in hand. Council has the option of adopting the General Development Plan & Preliminary Plat Approval resolution subject to conditions. The most important conditions to include from staffs perspective are: 1.If MCWD approvals result in revisions to the site plan and preliminary plat, the changes arc subject to review by the Council and the Council has the option to not accept the changes. 2.A firm commitment is needed from the developer regarding the payment of the various development fees based on the amounts or formulas as defined in Council’s approval of staff recommendation December 9. 3.A firm commitment is needed from the developer regarding payment of a contribution toward the City’s affordable housing program in lieu ofproviding affordable units within the project. 4.If for whatever reason (such as other agency requirements, inability to obtain other required approvals, developer-driven revisions for any reason, etc.) there arc significant revisions to the site plan, the amenities or any other aspects of the approved plan that staff finds to be not in keeping with the City approved plans, the City Council rcscr\ cs the • 'ght to further review and accept or reject those changes. Council should specificallyrevicwpageI4ofthe Resolution, whiche.stablishesconditions that must be met before final plat approval and/or before the rezoning will occur, and which provide the City the ability to approve or reject future changes to the plans as approved at this time. The developer has indicated he is willing to sign a waiver of any vested rights he may have accrued by obtaining preliminary plat approval, to give the City an additional level of comfort with granting the approvals requested based on plans that may need minor revisions prior to rezoning and final plat approval. i
