Based on these terms, staff has determined the Pre-Annexation and Development Agreement would provide substantial public benefits, including open space preservation, transportation and infrastructure improvements, and financial contributions toward public facilities.

Accordingly, staff finds that the agreement would result in a balanced exchange of benefits and recommends that the Planning Commission forward a recommendation of approval to the City Council. The City Council must ultimately determine if the agreement is consistent with the General Plan, and staff finds this finding can be made based on the analysis above.
