council rnake a determination on the negative declaration. She explainedthat Pfanning Commission recommended the negative declaration to councilafter determining that items cited by cene Satrap's letter--on behalf ofthe Russian Church of All- Saints--were adequately addressed by the
negative declaration. The parcel- is now vacant and is adjacent to the
Russian Church which is clearly visible across it for northbound traffic
on E1 camino Rea1. The proposed projeet fronts on Fairfield; the El,
Camino side will be fenced and the Fairfield side will be fenced in
stairstep fashion. The project is before the Planning Commission because
it requires a condominium permit and side yard setback variance for afive foot side yard.
Staff put forward a negative declaration because the project does not
exceed code height; the number of units is consistent with zoning; it
is consistent \"rith the general plani traffic orientation is towardFairfield; and parking and design codes are met. The project is not
expected to have an extraordinary effect on the adjacent church or
school.

INTRODUCTION
IMPROVEMENTS
OF ORDINANCE L22B - AMENDING DEVELOPMENT FEES FOR ROAD
Director of Public Works reviewed his memorandum of June 30 in which
he recommended introduction of an ordinance raising existing Bayfront
Development Fees. He explained that council adopted an ordinance in
1979 which provided that developments contributing to traffic problems
along the Bayfront would pay a fee for roadway improvements. Eees were
based on peak hour trip generated in accordance with the Drachman Report
and were to provide for 40 percent of the then estimated $2 million cost.
Since that time, inflation and added improvements have raised the estim-
ated cost to $4 miIlion. Additionally, council directed staff to revise
the 40 percent developer amount to 60 percent at the June 2, l9B2 study
meeting.
This ordinance will raise the amount contributed by developers to 60
percent; will provide for annual updating of fees; and for payment of
fees at the time of final framing inspection.
Councilman Crosby inquired whether city will be able to collect more
from developments that have already paid fees. Director of Pub1ic
Works replied that this would take a special district and considerable
work.

like or the way some people would like the trees trimmed. The city's
priority is safety to the trees.
