The Thayer Ranch subdivision is immediately west of the Richards Ranch subdivision, south of the future school/park site and north of Harney Lane. The subdivision locations are shown on Exhibit A. Although, the developments have separate tentative and final subdivision maps, the developer, Park Place Development, LLC, R. Thomas Development and Tokay Development, Members, is constructing the subdivisions as one project. The combined development consists of 75 single-family residential lots. Subdivision improvements include the northerly extension of Bluejay Way, the extension of wastewater and storm drain lines through adjacent parcels to the west to Stockton Street, the extension of a 12 -inch water main in Harney Lane, and the installation of street frontage improvements along the future school/park site on Bluejay Way and Culbertson Drive. In addition, street improvements and utilities are being installed in Harney Lane to serve the existing residences on the two parcels immediately west of the Thayer Ranch subdivision.

The developer has furnished the City with the improvement plans, necessary agreements, guarantees, insurance certificates and fees for the proposed subdivisions. School/Park Site Improvements In order to provide for orderly development of the future school/park site adjacent to the project, installation of underground utilities and street frontage improvements on Bluejay Way and Culbertson Drive for properties owned by the City and LUSD are included in this project. Reimbursement for the cost of the park site improvements will be made by the City in conformance with LMC §16.40, Reimbursements for Construction, when the improvements are complete. Reimbursement shall be applied as a credit against Development Impact Mitigation Fees for Park and Recreation facilities at the time of fee payment. Under the terms of a July 20, 2000, Agreement between the City and LUSD, the City shall reimburse the developer for the installation of street frontage improvements along Bluejay Way and Culbertson Drive fronting LUSD property. Reimbursement to the developer shall be in conformance with LMC §16.40, Reimbursements for Construction. LUSD shall subsequently reimburse the City for those costs plus engineering plan check and inspection fees. City staff shall provide a written invoice to LUSD for the cost of the school site improvements upon acceptance of all project improvements by the City Council. In keeping with the terms of the above-mentioned Agreement, reimbursement to the developer for the cost of the school site improvements shall be made by the City as follows: 1. Ninety percent (90%) of the cost of the improvements for the LUSD site shall be applied as a credit on the billing for the deferred Development Impact Mitigation Fees for Police, Fire, Park and Recreation and General City facilities to be paid prior to City Council acceptance of project improvements. 2. The balance of the cost of the improvements for the LUSD site (10%) shall be reimbursed to developer by the City after City Council acceptance. To provide neighborhood traffic control, staff recommends installing two-way stop controls on Schaffer Drive at Bluejay Way (Richards Ranch) and on Melby Drive at Culbertson Drive (Thayer Ranch) as shown on Exhibit B. When the school is constructed, appropriate school yellow crosswalks, legends and warning signs will be installed. Staff will monitor the traffic conditions on Bluejay Way to determine if additional traffic controls are needed. Excavation at G -Basin (Ed DeBenedetti Park) Since the developer needs a source of fill material for this project, and additional storage capacity is needed in the public storm drain system, the developer will obtain fill material by excavating said material from the existing G -Basin storm water facility. Excavation is to be to the approval of the Public Works Director or his designee. The developer will provide City staff with verifiable records of the amount of material excavated and compensate the City in the amount of $1.00 per cubic yard for the excavated material.
