Several other subdivisions have been approved in the general area as well. If those developments are built now that the real estate market has revived, city officials said Centrum Investment's project would be a logical part of the overall growth pattern. Del Sur Ranch is planned to contain schools, stores, parks and a fire station. But because the project is so far from the city's existing urban core, planning staffers recommended imposing several conditions on its development. Those include requiring fire sprinklers inside homes, unless Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. County Fire Station officials certify that firefighters could reach the area in five minutes. The present response time is 14 minutes, city officials said. The problem would be resolved if the Del Sur Ranch fire station is built, officials said. Other conditions include requiring the developers to rebuild potholed Avenue I between 35th Street West and 50th Street West. The company would be repaid in part for the expense as other developments are built whose residents would use the road. The developer would also be required to install three miles of water lines and sewer lines from the existing lines at 60th Street West and Avenue I. |
