BACKGROUND
In 2008, the City’s Planning Commission approved an “A” level Master Site Approval and Tentative Tract Map No. 16420 to subdivide 522 acres of land generally located south of Pine Avenue, west of Hellman Avenue, and north and east of Chino Corona Road for what is known as the South of Pine area in The Preserve. The purpose of the original Master Site Approval was to establish large parcels, and phase major backbone street systems for both future residential and non-residential development within the master plan area.
On February 23, 2022, the City’s Planning Commission conditionally approved a Development Modification to the Master Site Approval and Tentative Tract Map No. 16420. The modification removed the phased development concept originally approved, divided the larger land area into smaller lots to be reconveyed for development, and established improvement areas for future development. It is important to note that the Developer modification also incorporated conditions of approval for improvements along Pine Avenue for associated developments within the larger project area to help facilitate needed improvements to the area.
Subsequently, on September 19, 2022, the City’s Planning Commission approved Master Site Approval PL21-0045 and Tentative Tract Map No. 20446 to create 114 numbered lots and 7 lettered lots to accommodate 114 single-family homes (known as “Block 3”). This project is generally located on the north side of Chino Corona Road between Main Street and Legacy Park Street as shown in Exhibit A. Tract Map No. 16420 (as amended) will dedicate and require surety for portions of offsite improvements within the Tentative Tract Map No. 20446 area. Furthermore, Tentative Tract Map No. 20446 is intended to be recorded in two phases. Each phase may be recorded independently of the other.
As a result, the City Council approved Chino Preserve Development Corporation’s Final Tract Map No.16420-5 on November 23, 2023, to subdivide 24.91 acres within Block 3 as shown in Exhibit B. The developer is currently requesting that the City approve the Final Maps for Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446-1 to subdivide the previously approved Tract Map No. 16420-5 for the future development of a 10.78-acre subdivision consisting of 55 single-family residential units (Tract Map No. 20446) and a 10.53-acre subdivision consisting of 59 single-family residential units (Tract Map No 20446-1). These subdivisions are in the Low-Density Residential land use designation area of The Preserve within Block 3, as shown on Exhibit C and C-1.
The Engineering Conditions of Approval (COA) for Block 3 require public improvements including, but not limited to curb, gutter, sidewalk, streetlights, asphalt concrete pavement, median/parkway landscape, sewer, water, recycled water and drainage improvements. To guarantee the completion of these public improvements, the developer is required to enter into a Subdivision Improvement Agreement and obtain the necessary securities for the improvements.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The requirements made at the time of tentative map approval have been met by the execution of the Subdivision Improvement Agreements for Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446-1 and by posting the necessary securities to guarantee the construction of public improvements conditioned for Block 3. The City Attorney reviewed and approved the Subdivision Improvement Agreements and respective securities, which are attached as Exhibit D and D-1. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council approve Final Tract Map Nos. 20446 and 20446-1.
