conflict with the existing conditions, covenants and restrictions (CC&Rs)
applicable to the title of the subject property.
C. The owner agrees to continually occupy either the primary dwelling unit or
the second dwelling unit.
That since the second dwelling unit has been integrated into the primary unit
which is consistent with all of the applicable development standards of the R-I

public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and
zone in which the property is located.
That the second dwelling unit is provided with an on-site parking space.
That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of the development
since the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate residential
development at the density proposed.
The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan,
the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 1 and all City public facility
policies and ordinances. The project includes elements or has been conditioned
to construct or provide funding to ensure that all facilities and improvements
regarding: sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire;
schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government
administrative facilities; and open space, related to the project will be installed to
serve new development prior to or concurrent with need.

That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses
since they are designated for residential development on the General Plan.
That this project could have a potentially significant negative cumulative
impact on the Palomar Airport Road/El Camino Real intersection. However,
this project has been conditioned to pay its fair share of the “short-term
improvements”, thereby guaranteeing implementation of a mitigation
measure that reduces the potential impact to a level of insignificance.
