NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning :ommission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: (A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. (B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission recommends APPROVAL of SDP 85-13, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: 1) The project is consistent with the City's General Plan since the proposed density of 12.5 du's/acre is within the density range of 10-20 du's/acre specified for the site as indicated on the Land Use Element of the General Plan. I/// 4 1 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 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 pro- posed. The project is consistent with all City public facility pol- icies and ordinances since: a) b) C d 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. The Carlsbad School District has written a letter, dated August 23, 1985, stating that school facilities will be available to this project. All necessary public improvements have .been provided or will be required as conditions of approval . The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriate condition to pay a public faciIities 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. e) Assurances have been given that adequate sewer for the project will be provided by the City of Carlsbad. The proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since surrounding properties are designated for residential development on the General Plan. This project will not cause any significant environmental impacts and a Negative Declaration has been issued by the Land Use Planning Manager on October 19, 1985 and recommended for approval by the Planning Commission on November 13, 1985. This project requires the construction of the improvements or facilities listed in the conditions of approval or the payment of fees in lieu of construction. This project creates a direct need for the improvements or facilities for the reasons stated in the staff report. If the improvements or facilities are not provided, the project will create an unmitigated burden on existing improvements and facilities. Further, the improvements and facilities are necessary to provide safe, adequate and appropriate service to future residents of the project consistent with City goals, policies and plans.
