Council Member Corbett said a message was left on her machine. Mayor Karp asked the property owner if he had contacted the neighbors and had a meeting. The property owner said he had. This being the time and place for the Public Hearing on the above matter, Bill Silva, City Engineer, said this Public Hearing was continued from the April 19, 1993, City Council Meeting. He distributed photographs of the site to the City Council . Mr. Silva said at the last meeting the City Council asked the developer and property owner to schedule a meeting with the neighbors. He said a meeting was held, and general information regarding the meeting was in the packet. He said 43 people attended the meeting. He said Mr. Walker, representing the property owner, would make a presentation and summary of the meeting. He pointed out the Negative Declaration originally prepared was not approved or disapproved by the City Council . He said several changes have since been made and additional information has been presented. He said two issues that needed to be reviewed were finding that the Negative Declaration is complete and approval of the Parcel Map and associated agreements. He presented an overhead with location of the lot and the proposed split into two parcels. Mayor Karp said the people who live above the lot were concerned that there was engineered fill on the lot, and they want to be reassured the lot would not slide. Staff said the property owner's Geotechnical Engineer could give information on this point. Council Member Faria noted the Negative Declaration was still dated December 16, 1992, and asked if something new had been done. Ken Vogeney, Assistant Engineer, said the Initial Study was done by Mr. Lu, the property owner, and staff provided additional information at a later date. He said the previous Negative Declaration was done August 19, 1992, and noted page 179 of the Agenda showed a newer version. Although the cover page still had the old date, changes were made. Council Member Perry asked where the actual building pads would be on the lots. Council Member Polvorosa asked where the driveways and the cuts to the pad would be located. Mr. Vogeney described the joint-access driveway easement. Mayor Karp said two things were under consideration: the Negative Declaration as to Environmental Impact, and a lot split. He said the property was zoned R-1, and under R-1 zoning the applicant could build one, single-family unit without approval of the City Council or any body in San Leandro, excepting the Building Department.
