PURPOSE

Staff is requesting City Council approval of Final Tract Map No. 54024. 

BACKGROUND

The property covered on Final Tract Map No. 54024 is a one-lot subdivision totaling 7,630 square feet located at 621 E. Olive Avenue.  The property is in the R-4 Residential Multiple Medium Density zone (location map is attached).  The property is owned by Vaheh Shirinian.

ANALYSIS

The property originally contained a 2,102 square foot single family dwelling.  On September 10, 2001, the property owner requested City approval to convert the lot into a six unit apartment building with a subterranean parking garage.  Tentative Tract Map No. 54024, approved by the Community Development Director on December 9, 2002, converted the six-unit building to condominiums.  Final Tract Map No. 54024 finalizes the conversion of the existing properties to the condominium subdivision. 

All conditions of approval and all requirements of the State Subdivision Map Act have been met.  The following is a summary of information pertinent to the approval of Final Tract Map No. 54024:

1. The tentative tract map was conditionally approved by the Community Development Director on December 9, 2002, pursuant to Burbank Municipal Code Section 27-323 (Director�s Decision on Tentative Map). 

2. The Final Tract Map contains 6 condominium units at 621 E. Olive Avenue, which is located in the R-4 Residential Multiple Medium Density zone. 

3. The Public Works Engineering Division has cleared all Conditions of Approvals for the tentative tract map for purposes of Final Tract Map No. 54024 approval. 

4. This project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15301(K). This Class 1 Categorical Exemption applies to the division of multifamily structures into interest ownership. 

5. Conditions of approval, Tentative Tract Map No. 54024, with the exceptions of numbers 3, have been cleared by the Planning Division for purposes of Final Map approval.  Condition No. 3 will be satisfied when the applicant submits two recorded copies of the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions to the Planning Division.   

6. According to the State Subdivision Map Act, chapter 3, article 4, section 66458, and the provisions of Chapter 27 of the Burbank Municipal Code, the City Council must approve Final Tract Map No. 54024 if it conforms to all the requirements.  If such conformity does not exist, the Council must disapprove the map at the meeting it receives the map, or at its next regular meeting.  If the City Council has not authorized an extension to allow more time to disapprove the map, and the map conforms to all requirements, the map shall be deemed approved by operation of law.
