Findings:

That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal
Program and all applicable policies in that the proposed dwelling unit is replacing an
existing residence; no agricultural activities, sensitive environmental 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 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.
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 run off,
pollutants and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation are 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.
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 (1)(1) and 15303(a)
(single-family residence iv 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 not located in the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone, according to Map X
of the Land Use Plan, certified September 1990 and, therefore, is not subject to the
provisions of the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.202 of the Zoning
Ordinance).
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 of 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 recreation 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. Specifically,
