Subject:Tract No. 28214, Revision to Conditions of Approval No. 67 and 69 Relating
to Improvements at Lake Street and the Alberhill Ranch Road and Nichols
Road Intersection
Recommendation
Approve revisions to Conditions of Approval No. 67 and 69 to state as follows:
67. a) Lake Street ultimate half width improvements between Alberhill Ranch Road and Nichols
Road shall be completed prior to the 75th Building Permit, except for part b) of this condition.

Background
On January 13, 2004, the City Council certified Addendum No. 2 to the Alberhill Ranch Specific
Plan EIR and approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTTM) No. 28214 allowing the subdivision
of approximately 163 acres into 913 single family residential lots, one (1) multi-family residential
lot, and six (6) public and institutional lots. The expiration of VTTM No. 28214 was extended
through a series of automatic and discretionary extensions, the most recent of which was a three-
year extension of time granted by the City Council on December 8, 2020.
On November 9, 2021, the City Council approved Final Map No. 28214-9 and on November 21,
2021, Tract Map No. 28214-9 was filed with the County Recorder thereby subdividing the
approximately 134-acre site into 344 residential lots and 55 lettered lots with streets dedicated to
the public for street and utility purposes.
Pulte Group – TR 28214-9 COA deferral
Page 2 of 2
On April 18, 2023, the Planning Commission approved Residential Resign Review No. 2022-06
for Pulte Group (Pulte) the design and construction of 344 single-family detached residential units,
preliminary plotting, conceptual landscaping, conceptual wall and fence plan, and related
improvements in Tract No. 28214-9. Grading permits have been issued the project is currently
under construction.
Discussion
Pulte has been working to improve Lake Street and Nichols Road to satisfy their offsite conditions
of approval. Currently, the conditions of approval require the developer to complete improvements
for Lake Street and Nichols Road prior to the issuance of the 50th building permit as shown below:
67. Lake Street ultimate half-width improvements between Alberhill Ranch Road and
Nichols Road shall be completed prior to the 50th building permit.
69. Nichols Road and Alberhill Ranch Road ultimate intersection improvements shall be
completed prior to the 50th building permit.
On October 12, 2023, Pulte submitted a letter requesting deferrals to Conditions of Approval 67
and 69 (Attachment 1). Pulte has been working closely with Southern California Edison (SCE) to
progress both the Lake Street pole relocation as well as the Nichols Road electric final design.
However, the pole relocation work won’t be completed before the end of 2024. City staff has been
working very closely with the developer on line of sight issues. There are also other easements
that are necessary to acquire in order to place SCE equipment along Nichols which has impacted
Pulte’s schedule. Staff is recommending Conditions of Approval 67 and 69 be revised as follows:
67. a) Lake Street ultimate half width improvements between Alberhill Ranch Road and
Nichols Road shall be completed prior to the 75th Building Permit, except for part b) of this
condition. b) Power poles along Lake Street that may be in conflict with ultimate roadway
widening shall be relocated by the 200th Building Permit.
69. Ultimate intersection improvements at Nichols Road and Alberhill Ranch Road, including
the signalization shall be completed prior to the 125th Building permit.
Fiscal Impact
No direct additional fiscal impact.
