BACKGROUND The Final Tract Map for Tract No. 60922-01, an exhibit of which is attached hereto, has been reviewed by staff and found to be in substantial conformance with the principles and standards required by the Unified Development Code and State Subdivision Map Act. Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 060922 for the Skyline Ranch project was originally approved by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on December 7, 2010, as a part of County Project No. 04- 075-(5). On March 20, 2018, the Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend the prezone of the Plum Canyon Annexation (including the Skyline Ranch project) to the City Council. At the April 24, 2018, City Council meeting, the City Council authorized the City Manager to file the annexation application with the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) and conducted the first reading of the prezone ordinance for the annexation area, including the Skyline Ranch project. The second reading of the prezone ordinance was conducted on May 8, 2018. Staff anticipates the completion of the Plum Canyon Annexation by December 1, 2018. The Final Tract Map consists of a subdivision of 475.85 acres into 263 residential lots and allows for 234 single family residential lots, 1 residential lot comprised of 73 condominium units, a school, a park, 13 open space lots and various utility service lots. The subject property is located northwest of Sierra Highway at Adon Avenue and is primarily located in the unincorporated area of the County of Los Angeles. Approximately 1.13 acres, located adjacent to Sierra Highway, is located within the City of Santa Clarita. This 1.13 acres consists of two open space lots and a portion of Skyline Ranch Road. Pursuant to Section 66474.1 of the Subdivision Map Act, a legislative body shall not deny approval of a final or parcel map if it was previously approved as a tentative map for the proposed subdivision and if it finds the final or parcel map is in substantial compliance with the previously approved tentative map. The County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works has reviewed and approved the map for mathematical accuracy, survey analysis, title information, and for compliance with the Subdivision Map Act and the Conditions of Approval. The portion of the Final Tract Map within the City of Santa Clarita was reviewed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer and the City Surveyor and found to be in substantial conformance with the previously approved tentative tract map. The Conditions of Approval established by the County of Los Angeles were also met and fees have been and/or will be paid as indicated on the attached Fact Sheet. Therefore, the Final Tract Map is ready for City Council approval and acceptance of the dedications shown thereon. Page 2 Packet Pg. 188 10 The Final Tract Map for Tract No. 60922-01 is scheduled to be presented to the County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors on July 31, 2018. ALTERNATIVE ACTION Staff has not identified alternative actions that would conform to requirements set forth in the Subdivision Map Act.
