WHEREAS, should the residential development be exercised, the CalTrans Residual Parcel
open space would contribute to meeting that project's park dedication requirement; and

transferee parcel to construct park improvements on -site. Eight (8) of these units are derived
from the CalTrans Residual Parcel on the easterly side of Superior Avenue, in consideration
