Ordinance No. 2308 <br />Page 10 of 12 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Sustainability Program 2.6 (“Require design features in new development <br />and redevelopment areas to encourage transit, bicycle, and pedestrian <br />access, such as connections between activity centers and residential areas, <br />and road design that accommodates transit vehicles, where feasible”) in <br />that it will include a Class 1 trail extension between the Project site and <br />Mohr Avenue to facilitate transit, bicycle, and pedestrian access. <br /> <br />2. Land Use Policy 25 (“Annex urbanized pockets of unincorporated <br />land adjacent to the city limits in areas where landowners are willing to <br />accept City services and development standards”) as it will annex a portion <br />of unincorporated land immediately adjacent to city limits where the <br />applicant is willing to accept City services and comply with City development <br />standards, as reflected in the requested PUD for the Project. <br /> <br />3. Land Use Policy 23 (“Maintain a permanent Urban Growth Boundary [UGB] <br />beyond which urban development shall not be permitted”) as the Project <br />site is within the City’s UGB. <br /> <br />B. The findings for denial of a tentative map set forth in Government Code § <br />66474 cannot be made with respect to the proposed tentative map. <br /> <br />The proposed tentative map for Tract 8423 is not inconsistent with the General <br />Plan, as set forth in finding 4(A) above, and no Specific Plan applies to it. Moreover, <br />the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is not inconsistent with <br />applicable general and specific plans, as set forth in finding 4(A) above. The <br />Project site is not physically unsuitable for the type of development proposed, as <br />analyzed in the Addendum prepared for the Project. The Project site is likewise not <br />physically unsuitable for the proposed density of development (6.3 dwelling units <br />per acre), as the proposed General Plan land use designation allows development <br />of 2-8 dwelling units per acre. As analyzed in the EIR and the subsequent <br />Addendum, the design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements are not <br />likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably <br />injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. Similarly, the design of the subdivision and <br />type of improvements (single-family homes) are not likely to cause serious public <br />health problems. Finally, the design of the proposed subdivision and the type of <br />improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for <br />access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision, as no such <br />easements are located on the Project site. <br /> <br />C. The discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into an existing <br />community sewer system would not result in violation of existing <br />requirements prescribed by a California regional water quality control board <br />pursuant to Division 7 (commencing with Section 13000) of the Water Code. <br /> <br />Page 31 of 344
