DISCUSSION
On June 3, 2015, the Planning Commission adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration and
approved Tentative Tract Map No. 73340 and a Site Plan Review to allow KB Homes to
construct a 117-unit townhome development. The 6.65-acre project site is generally located on
the east side of Paramount Blvd between 5th St. and 7th St. It is within the Downtown Downey
Specific Plan and has a General Plan Land Use Designation of Mixed Use.
The final map consists of 117 numbered lots (one for each unit) and three lettered lots (for the
common areas). Municipal Code Section 9924 requires that the Planning Commission and City
Council approve the final map prior to it being recorded. Both the Public Works Department and
Planning Division have reviewed the final map and have determined that the map complies with
the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act, the City’s Municipal Code, and the project
approvals.
Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission adopt a minute action, thereby
recommending the City Council approve Final Parcel Map 73340.
