Board directs staff to add East Ridge Unit 1 to a public development‑agreement tracking tool and approves final map

The board approved the final map for East Ridge Village Subdivision Unit 1 and directed planning staff to include the project in a new development‑agreement tracking system that will publish community‑benefit fee collections, milestones and triggers.

Planning staff described the project as 147 residential lots and 13 lettered lots identified by a set of assessor parcel numbers. Supervisors and public commenters pressed for clarity about long‑running development commitments and whether infrastructure promises (parks, circulation improvements, fee obligations) were being fulfilled over the long time horizon of these projects.

Board direction: Planning Director supported the idea of a public web page that would list major projects, the obligations in their development agreements and annual reporting (e.g., community benefit fee collected per unit and totals to date). Supervisors asked staff to make East Ridge an early entry in the tracking system so the public can trace whether commitments are met as the project advances.

Vote and next steps: The motion to approve the final map and to add the project to the development agreement tracking tool passed 5-0. Staff said the tracker will initially include large projects (development agreements, general plan or specific plan amendments) and will be refined with board feedback.
