OF RIVERSIDEO COUNCIT, MEMORANDUM HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL DATE: February 7, 1995 ITEM NO.: 34 SUBJECT: GUIDELINES FOR REVIEWING THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE'S LAKE MATHEWS COMMUNITY AND OTHER RELATED PLANS IN THE CITY'S SPHERE OF INFLUENCE Backqround: On October 18, 1994, the City Council directed the Planning Department to commence the analysis of pertinent County plans in the City's outer sphere of influence. Ultimately the County plans may be adopted by the City as the most cost effective means of satisfying the planning mandate of voter initiative Measure C. The staff subsequently prepared a proposed program to perform the work. That work program was reviewed and found acceptable by the Measure C Committee on November 17, 1994. The suggested work program is described in the attached memorandum to the Measure C Committee and primarily involves a review of existing plans and data bases rather than original research. The Measure C Committee is envisioned to play a significant role in the process. Fiscal Impact: Specific costs are difficult to estimate. As previously related to the City Council, the work will be performed in-house with the equivalent of about one-half staff year at the Senior Planner level needed to complete the project. There will be modest incidental expenses for advertising, printing, public meetings. Limited outside legal costs may be incurred as well. The work can be performed with the existing resources of the Planning and Legal Departments. Alternatives: The City Council may accept, reject or modify the proposed work program. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council concur with the recommendation of the Measure C Committee and approve the attached work program.
