That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES SDP 91-4, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. The proposed development is properly related to the site, surroundings, and environmental setting, consistent with the various elements of the general plan, not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the area, and not detrimental to the site, surroundings, or traffic circulation because the proposed development does not affect the existing Site Development Plan and provides adequate off-street parking, landscaping, circulation, and loading area. The site for the intended development is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposal because the proposed project complies with all applicable ordinances regarding site development standards while keeping with the existing constraints of the site. All yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the proposed development to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be provided and maintained as the site design is compatible with neighboring developments and all existing and proposed landscaped areas are conditioned to be provided and to remain intact. The street system serving the proposed development is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed development as the site is served by fully improved, local streets capable of accommodating the 42 average daily trips generated by the proposal. The Planning Commission has, by inclusion of an appropriate condition to this project, ensured building permits will not be issued for the project unless the City Engineer determines that sewer service is available, and building cannot occur within the project unless sewer service remains available, and the Planning Commission is satisfied that the requirements of the Public Facilities Element of the General Plan have been met insofar as they apply to sewer service for this project. Park-in-lieu fees are required as a condition of approval. The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriate condition to pay a public facilities fee. Performance of that contract and payment of the fee will enable this body to find that public facilities will be available concurrent with need as required by the General Plan. This project is consistent with the City's Growth Management Ordinance as it has been conditioned to comply with any requirement approved as part of the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 5.
