CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/ZONE CHANGE NO. 18-0278
PUBLIC WORKS
Prior to the City's approval of any construction plans associated with any development
project, subdivision, or minor land division within the GPA/ZC area, the developer must
submit the following for review and approval by the City Engineer:
a. Fully executed dedication for S. Union Avenue to arterial standards for the full
frontage of the GPA/ZC area, unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer.
Dedications must include sufficient widths for expanded intersections and additional
areas for landscaping as directed by the City Engineer.
b. Comprehensive drainage study of the entire drainage area. The City will allow no
more than one sump per 80 acres. The sump should be located so that it may be
available to serve adjacent areas as they develop. The developer may establish a
planned drainage area or provide some other method for the construction of the
ultimate drainage facilities satisfactory to the City Engineer.
c. Sewer study, which will assure that appropriate sewer service will be provided to the
entirety of the GPA/ZC area. The GPA/ZC area is already within the Panama Union
Planned Sewer Area. The developer will be responsible for payment of applicable
fees for the PSA. The developer will be responsible for the extension of the sewer line
to serve the GPA/ZC area. This sewer line may need to be sized to serve a much
larger area than the project area as directed by the City Engineer. The developer
may also form a planned sewer area to provide a mechanism for the reimbursement
of oversizing costs to the developer. The sewer study must provide evidence the
existing sewer system will not be impacted by the increased development intensity
proposed for the GPA/ZC. If the existing sewer system cannot accommodate the
increased development intensity, then additional sewer main extensions may be
required to serve the proposed GPA/ZC.
For orderly development
2. Prior to the recording of any final map or issuance of any certificates of occupancy for
development within the GPA/ZC area, whichever is earlier, the developer must (a)
construct all infrastructure, both public and private, within the boundary of the GPA/ZC
area, including, but not limited to, any and all boundary streets to the centerline of the
street as required by the City Engineer and (b) construct, and acquire any necessary right-
of-way to construct, any off-site infrastructure required to support development of the
GPA/ZC as determined by the City Engineer. Phasing of the construction of the required
infrastructure may be allowed by the City Engineer. Per City Council Resolution 035-13,
any development within the GPA/ZC area must comply with the City's "complete streets"
policy. The developer shall construct road widening, curb, gutter, and sidewalk
improvements along the east side of Union Avenue over the Arvin -Edison Canal to the
existing improvements on the north side of the said canal.

not limited to, the adopted regional traffic impact fee, local mitigation fees, any major
bridge and thoroughfare district fees, and any planned sewer and drainage area fees.
For orderly development
