That the proposed development is in conformance with the Mello 11 segment of the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the site is designated for single-family residential developments and the development is a single-family house on a previously developed lot; no agricultural activities, sensitive resources, geological instability, flood hazard or coastal access opportunities exist onsite and the development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or public right-of-way nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.03 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the City’s Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP), and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation is located on the subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the property is not located adjacent to the shore. Therefore, the project will not interfere with the public’s right to physical access to the sea and the site is not suited for water-oriented recreation activities. That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15303 (single-family residence in an urbanized area) of the state CEQA Guidelines. In making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. 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 PC RES0 NO. 5488 -2- 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 project will be installed to serve new development prior to or concurrent with need.
