REVERSION TO ACREAGE - Block 27, Mills Estate No. 5. Trousdale Company requested that the above named property be revert- ed to acreage so new street maps can be submitted. City Attorney Karmel brought out the fact that the developer had failed to recog- nize that there is an existing contract with the City and that the street work substantially has not been done. City Attorney Karmel pointed out that bonds have already been posted for completion of street work in the area and suggested that the Company ask for an extension of time on its contract rather than have the area reverted to acreage so new plans can be prepared for acceptance. 4. TENTATIVE MAP - MILLS ESTATE AREA: Plans presented showing a dividing street between the two Cities (Millbrae and Burlingame) to be known as Divisadero Street. Commis- sioner Martin expressed disapproval of alignment of streets as pro- posed. Plans also showed provisions for a City Park consisting of approximately four and one quarter acres. Commissioners Mildred Grens and Herman Hinrichs of the Recreation Commission were present to study the plans. They requested that an ingress and egress be provided for the benefit of the smaller children, so it would not be necessary for them to have to cross through the proposed baseball diamond. Although representatives of the Park Commission had been invited to attend the meeting, none of the members were able to be present. The Secretary was requested to invite the Park Commission to be present at the next meeting on June 25th. 5. FINAL MAP - MILLS ESTATE #7. (Southwesterly from Mills No. 5) Jack Dovay, engineer for Wilsey and Ham, representing the Trousdale Company, and Ernest Viner, engineer for the Trousdale Company, pre- sented revised subdivision plans, calling for changes in street lay- outs. On questioning from the Chair, Engineer Viner explained the change in subdivision plans was caused by the necessity for rock ex- cavations. Further questioning revealed that the Trousdale Company will continue to develop all lots, but plan to discontinue home build- ing in the Mills Estate, and will allow other contractors to build under strict architectural control. Chairman Martin expressed oppos- ition to alignment of East and West Streets as proposed. The repre- sentatives of the Trousdale Company were requested to be prepared to make a presentation at the next meeting and to submit original maps. 6.
