RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2015/328 terminating and abandoning a portion of an offer of dedication of a Landscape Maintenance Easement (LME) over a portion of Assessor's Parcel Number 222-620-039, along Lilac Ridge Road in San Ramon, Dougherty Valley area. (Project No. 0651-WL72RP, Permit SD06-09134)

DIRECT the Real Estate Division of the Public Works Department to record a certified copy of the Resolution in the office of the County Clerk-Recorder.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Applicant Fees.

BACKGROUND:

The applicant, Shapell Homes, a Division of Shapell Industries, Inc., has requested the termination of a portion of the offer of dedication of a LME filed July 29, 2013, on Subdivision 06-9134. It has been determined that a portion of the offered area is not required and will not be used for the purpose for which it was dedicated.

In September of 2006, an Addendum to the 1992 Environmental Impact Report (State Clearing House [SCH] No. 91053014) and the 1996 Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 96013003) was prepared by the Community Development Department to consider the environmental effects of the proposed amendment to the Dougherty Valley Specific plan relating to the Gale Ranch Middle School relocation. It has been determined that terminating and abandoning a portion of the offer of dedication will not have a significant effect on the environment.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Contra Costa County may be responsible for the maintenance of an easement that is not required for the purpose for which it was dedicated.
