With respect to Case No. PUD -130, the City Council makes the following findings and determinations with respect to each of the considerations for a PUD Development Plan as required by Section 18.68.110 of the PMC: 1. Whether the plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: The Project, as conditioned, meets applicable City standards concerning public health, safety, and welfare. The Project includes installation of all required infrastructure and utilities to serve the development, as well as roadway and traffic improvements along Dublin Canyon Road, including a new signalized intersection to enhance safety and access. The design incorporates emergency vehicle access, fire protection measures including defensible space and fuel management zones, and compliance with applicable Building and Fire Codes. Stormwater runoff would be managed through on-site drainage facilities and water quality treatment measures consistent with City and regional requirements. Construction impacts would be minimized through standard conditions of approval, including construction hour limitations and dust control measures. While the Project would result in significant and unavoidable vehicle miles traveled (VMT) impacts, these impacts are typical of residential development in similar locations and are outweighed by the Project's public benefits, including housing production, open space preservation, and public access improvements.
