effective immediately and include all projects in various
phases of development, including tentative tract maps and
projects going through final engineering as of this date,
May 23, 1988; (See following text for amendment)
And, that a six-month time frame for development of
the infrastructure financing and implementation plan be
imposed.
Discussion ensued regarding the intent of the motion
being that it would pass through the City Attorney's
Office for rev iew and come back in legal form. Also,
before development can take place, a financing and an
implementation plan for the infrastructure will be
developed.
Ann Siracusa answered questions regarding the Speci-
fic Plan process accomplishing the need for having the
developer responsible for improvement costs.

Noes: Counc i I Member Estrada. Absent:
Discussion ensued regarding reconsideration of the
action taken on 19,899 square foot lots.
Council Member Reilly made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Estrada and unanimously carried, that

to read: These development standards are effective
immediately. Legal lots of record as of this date, May

Ann Siracusa defined the following as needing to be
accomplished before the General Plan can be sent to the
State of California: finalization of the map, action on
hillside management densities, action on the interim
implementation policies and adoption of a resolution
forwarding the packet to the state with a request for
exemption from the moratorium.
