Section 8-94.4 states the approval of a Conditional Use Permit may be
valid only for a specified term, and may be made contingent upon the
acceptance and observance of specified conditions, including but not limited
to the following matters:
a) substantial conformity to approved plans and drawings;
b) limitations on time of day for the conduct of specified activities;
c) time period within which the approval shall be exercised and the proposed
use brought into existence, failing which, the approval shall lapse and be
void;
d) guarantees as to compliance with the terms of the approval, including the
posting of bond;

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Categorically exempt, Class 4.
NOTIFICATION:
Public Notice of the August 4, 1986, hearing was published
in The Herald, mailed to adjacent property owners, and
posted in public buildings
ANALYSIS:
The Applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a
Directional Tract Sign for the Bordeaux Estates. This request is in
compliance with a Condition of Approval for PA 86-056 Bordeaux Estates Tract
Sign (approved July 7, 1986), which required the Applicant to remove the sign
at Rolling Hills Drive or apply for a Conditional Use Permit. The 24 sq. ft.
sign, identifying the name of the subdivision and directions for reaching it,
currently exists at the southwest corner of Silvergate Drive and Rolling Hills
Drive without benefit of approval. The Applicant is now seeking approval of
the sign at its present location. The lot is currently undeveloped and is the
site of the Kaufman & Broad Multi-Family project. The proposed sign is
consistent with the City Zoning Ordinance in all aspects (size, height,
location and sign content).
It has come to Staff's attention that to date Bordeaux Estates has two
signs within the City erected without prior City approval (a directional tract
sign located on San Ramon Road north of Amador Valley Boulevard and a banner
sign located near their model homes complex). A Condition of Approval is
included in the draft Resolution requiring removal of these signs and any
other Bordeaux Estates signs which do not have City approval.
