RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION
(APN: 206-020-061 - ZIMMERMAN)
WHEREAS, Kurt Zimmerman (Owner) and DK Associates (Applicant) have requested
approval of a Major Subdivision application to subdivide an 11.40 +/- acre property into five single
family residential parcels; and
WHEREAS, the subject site is located at 30 Hidden Hills Place and is further identified as
Assessor's Parcel Number 206-020-061; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Danville Subdivision Ordinance require approval of a Major
Subdivision prior to the recordation of the Final Map; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did review the project at a noticed public hearing on
March 28, 2000; and
WHEREAS, a Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance has been
prepared for the project indicating that, as amended through project revisions or recommended
conditions of approval, no significant environmental impacts are expected to be associated with
the project; and
WHEREAS, the public notice of this action was given in all respects as required by law; and
WHEREAS, a staff report was submitted recommending that the Planning Commission approve
the request; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and consider all reports, recommendations, and
testimony submitted in writing and presented at the hearing; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the Town of Danville approves Major
Subdivision request SD 8219 per the conditions contained herein, and makes the following
findings in support of this action:
1. The proposed subdivision is in substantial conformance with the goals and policies of the
Danville 2010 General Plan.
,
The proposed subdivision is substantially in conformance with the development standards
contained within the Lawrence/Leema Road Specific Plan.
,
The design of the proposed subdivision is in substantial conformante with the applicable
zoning regulations.
,
The design of the subdivision and the type of associated improvements will not likely
cause serious public health problems because water and sanitary facilities services will be
available to the four new parcels.
The density of the subdivision is physically suitable for the proposed density of
development.
,
The design of the proposed subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or subsequently injure fish or wildlife or their habitat
since this property is in an area where residential development has previously occurred.
,
The design of the proposed subdivision and proposed improvements will not conflict with
easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within
the proposed subdivision.

Existing overhead utility lines along this developments Lawrence Road frontage
shall be undergrounded at the expense of the developer.
The applicant shall be responsible for the construction of a private storm drainage
facility, or improvements to existing storm drain facilities on the Hidden Hills
