MEETING DATE: 12/01/2020 ITEM NO: 7
DATE: November 24, 2020
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Approving the Parcel Map for 15630 Los Gatos-Almaden
Road and Accepting Dedications
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) approving the Parcel Map for 15630 Los Gatos-Almaden
Road and accepting dedications.
BACKGROUND:
On April 2, 2019, the Development Review Committee considered a proposed subdivision at
15630 Los Gatos-Almaden Road, received public comment, and approved Architecture and Site
Applications S-18-035 and S-18-036 and Subdivision Application M-18-006 with conditions.
The developer, DBI Construction, has filed the Parcel Map (Attachment 2) to subdivide and
create two new parcels, which identifies dedications for a street right-of-way to the Town and
public service easements. The acceptance of the dedications will allow for the subdivision.
DISCUSSION:
The parcel map subdivides the existing parcel into two parcels for the construction of two new
single-family residences. The developer has provided all necessary maps and drawings. The
developer is required to provide the required contracts, bonds, and liability insurance to
guarantee the construction of all improvements. The developer has paid the appropriate fees
to fully comply with the previously imposed development conditions and Town ordinances.
