PURPOSE:

Staff is requesting City Council approval of Final Tract Map No. 54177. 

BACKGROUND:

The property covered on Final Tract Map No. 54177 is a one-lot subdivision totaling 7,587 square feet and is located at 574 E. Palm Avenue. The property is in the R-4 Multiple Family Medium Density Residential Zone (location map is attached). The property is  owned by Garnik Keshishian.

ANALYSIS:

The existing property was a one story, two-unit building with a detached garage. The proposed development consists of constructing a three story, six unit condominium complex with 13 subterranean parking spaces. Final Tract Map No. 54177 finalizes the conversion of the existing property 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. 54177:

1. The tentative tract map was conditionally approved by the Community Development Director on March 31, 2003 pursuant to Burbank Municipal Code Section 27-323 (Director�s Decision on Tentative Map).

2. The Final Tract Map contains 6 condominium units at 574 E. Palm Avenue, which is located in the R-4 Multiple Family Medium Density Residential zone.

3. Conditions of approval for Tentative Tract Map No. 54177, with the exception of number 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 (see attached TTM No. 54177 Conditions of Approval).   

4. The Public Works Engineering Division has cleared all conditions for the approval of Final Tract Map No. 54177. 

5. This project is statutorily exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15268(b)(3) relating to approval of final subdivision maps.

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. 54177 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.
