B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commissio APPROVES NASSAR RESIDENCE - CDP 03-36 based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: 1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential development and the development consists of a single-family residence on a ,081 acre lot. The development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or public rights-of-way or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone; no agricultural activities, geological instability or coastal access opportunities exist on the previously developed site; and sensitive biological resources do not exist on site. 2. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that there are no public recreation or access requirements for the property. 3. 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 (JUMP) to avoid increased urban run off, 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. 4. 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 15301 - (demolition of a single-family residence) and 15303 (construction of a 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. 5.
