Consideration by the City Council in a Public Hearing for certification of an amended Final Environmental Impact Report and approval of several City permits (listed below) to allow for development of a 77-acre vacant property located at 4790 Las Virgenes Road, at the Agoura Road intersection. The proposed project includes: (1) 180 condominium/townhouse housing units, with eighteen units (10%) restricted to be affordable to very low income families, within fifteen 3-story buildings; (2) a 5,867 square-foot, commercial retail center within two 1-story buildings; (3) a 0.36 acre community green space (park); (4) two storm water detention/debris basins; (5) a public trail dedication; and (6) dedication of 66.0 acres (86% of the site) as permanent open space. Development of this project would require remedial grading to stabilize a landslide hazard area on the southern portion of the site. Requested permits include: Vesting Tentative Tract Map (for land division and condominium purposes), Development Plan, Conditional Use Permit, Site Plan Review, Oak Tree Permit, and Scenic Corridor Permit. The project site is zoned as follows: 10 acres zoned Planned Development (PD), 6 acres zoned Residential-Multifamily (RMF (20), and 61 acres zoned Open Space-Development Restricted (OS-DR), all within the Scenic Corridor (-SC) overlay zone. The City Council will consider the project as proposed along with the recommendation by the Planning Commission (approved on a 3-2 vote) for the City Council to approve a modified project alternative that reduces the total residential unit count to 135 units and reconfigures the residential structures in a way that further reduces the visual impact of the project from the Scenic Corridor (Las Virgenes Road). The City Council retains the power to approve, disapprove, or conditionally approve the project or a modification thereto
