1. Young America has developed 54 lots in the Carriage Court Subdivision and
just opened their models. They expect to complete the 54 homes and start
phase 2 which will have 48 lots. They are optimistic that they will
use their building permit allotment - - -but I have some doubts, based on
past experience.,
2. Condiotti would like to complete the homes for which all the lots are being
developed to be developed in Spreckels Place No. 1. They need an additional
84 permits to do so. They have sold out the first phase of the subdivision.
They are selling from a waiting list!! The pent up demand is a shame!
3. McBain has not yet broken ground.
4. Due to the late date in the year in which permits are now being taken out and
considering the buildings won't be completed until at least Sept. or Oct., the
sewerage flow (average dry weather flow) won't be affected until 1989.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the issuance of permits to Condiotti Enterprises to enable the company to
complete the homes to be developed in Spreckels Subdivision No. 1. This will entail
about 92 permits, 52 of which can be taken from the allotment to Young America Homes
which allotment will be r if Youn America Homes determines
later in the year that it really wants to take out the additional permits.
