APPROVED FINAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
PLANS FOR SIXTY VACANT LOTS WITHIN THE
MONTE SERENO RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
LOCATED AT 1040 BOGERT TRAIL.
WHEREAS, Alta Verde Sereno, LLC. ("Applicant") has filed an application to amend the
Final Development Plans of PD 269, Case No. 5.0881, involving modifications to the
designs and architecture of single-family residences and front yard landscaping within
the Monte Sereno residential development located at 1040 Bogert Trail, Zone PD 269,
Section 35; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 94.03.00(G) of the Zoning Code, the Planning
Commission may approve minor architectural or site changes that do not affect the
intent of the PD; and
WHEREAS, on March 14, 2012, a public meeting on Case No. 5.0881 PD-269 Final PD
AMEND was held by the Planning Commission in accordance with applicable law; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines,
the proposed amendment has been determined to be a project subject to
environmental analysis under CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has carefully reviewed and considered all of the
evidence presented in connection with the hearing on the project, including, but not
limited to, the staff report, and all written and oral testimony presented.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines,
a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was previously adopted by the
City Council on July 30, 2003 for the residential development. Pursuant to
Section 15162 of the California Environmental Act (CEQA), the
preparation of additional environmental documentation is not necessary
because the proposed amendment will not change the circumstances
related to the project. Furthermore, the amendment will not result in any
new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects. Therefore, the proposed
amendment could not result in any new environmental impacts beyond
those already assessed in the previously adopted Mitigated Negative
Declaration.

Commission hereby approves Case No. 5.0881 PD-269 Final PD AMEND; an
