Clara Lane tentative map extension dispute (Parcel Map 9455)
Subdivider Rakesh Jain says his three-lot Clara Lane project is fully financed and ready, but staff says the 2007 tentative map expires October 26 and no further extension is legal. A neighbor urged denial, asking for updated environmental review.

Staff offered to connect him with vector control and get him answers on timing.
