THE CITY COUNCIL HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: Pursuant to CEQA, the City Council finds that the current environmental
assessment for TTM 30941 adequately addresses the general environmental
setting of the proposed Project, its significant environmental impacts, and the
mitigation measures related to each significant environmental effect for the
proposed project. The City Council further finds that with the incorporation of
proposed mitigation measures, potentially significant environmental impacts
resulting from this project will be reduced to a level of insignificance and therefore
recommends adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project.
Section 2: Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 the City Council finds that the
proposed subdivision and the provisions for its design and improvement are
compatible with the objectives, polices, and general land uses and program
provided in the City's General Plan and any applicable specific plan.
Section 3: Pursuant to Government Code Section 66474(Subdivision Map Act), the Planning
Commission finds that with the incorporation of those conditions attached in Exhibit
A:
1. The proposed Tentative Map is consistent with applicable general and specific plans.
The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan designation
' for the site is H43/30 (High Density Residential 21-30 units/acre). The applicant is
proposing 48 units and therefore, is well within the density parameters of the General Plan.
2. The design of improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan
and any applicable Specific Plan.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 the City Council finds that the proposed
subdivision and the provisions for its design and improvement are compatible with the
objectives, polices, and general land uses and program provided in the City's General Plan.
All street, drainage, and utilities improvements are subject to the standards of the General
Plan and Conditions of Approval associated with TTM 30941.
3. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development contemplated by the
proposed subdivision.
The site is proposed for forty-eight(48)two and three-bedroom condominium units on 4.65
acres of land. The proposed development is well under the maximum allowable density of
98-140 units, as permitted under the General Plan and Zoning Code. There will be no
incompatibility issues as the subject property is surrounded by a commercial use to the
west, vacant but commercially zoned land to the north, residential uses to the east, and
vacant but high density residential zoned land to the south. The applicant proposes a
medium density residential development that will be compatible with the surrounding
neighbourhood.
4. The design of the proposed subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat.
lye
All potential environmental impacts as a result of developing the subject property are fully
disclosed in the Environmental Assessment. The incorporation of the mitigation measures
as prescribed in the EA will ensure that any potentially significant impacts will be reduced
to a level of insignificance. Therefore, the design of the proposed subdivision or the
proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or
substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
5. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public
health problems.
The design of the subdivision and proposed improvements must follow the conditions of
approval including, but not limited to, the application of the Uniform Building Code Seismic
Safety Standards, and the City of Palm Springs Fugitive Dust Control Ordinance in order
to ensure public health and safety.
6. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements,
acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed
subdivision.
Baristo Road is already improved to secondary thoroughfare standards including sidewalk,
curb, and gutter. Arenas Road will be improved to extend to the project, terminate with a
cul-de-sac constructed to City standards, and include an 8-foot wide sidewalk behind the
curb.The 24-foot wide common travelways providing internal circulation for the project will '
be privately maintained.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, based upon the foregoing, the City Council hereby
orders filing of a Mitigated Negative Declaration and approves TTM 30941, subject to those
conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit A, which are to be satisfied prior to the issuance of a
