That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed use because all of the building's parking, open space and other amenities can be provided on site. That all of the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be provided and maintained; because all setbacks will be landscaped and permanent irrigation systems installed and a 6 foot high fence and security gates will be constructed. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use, because this project should generate little traffic. The project's location will afford the residents of the project easy access to community, commercial and service facilities, because this project is near the downtown area. The requested reduction in parking is acceptable at this location based upon input provided by other cities that have had similar projects successfully developed within their j ur i sd ict ion. The project is consistent with all City public facility pol- icies and ordinances since: a) All necessary public improvements have been provided or will be required as conditions of approval. b) 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. c) School facilities will not be impacted because a condition of approval of this Resolution and of the Development and Operating Agreement will restrict the minimum age of any occupant to 25. This project will not cause any significant environmental impacts and a Negative Declaration has been issued by the Land Use Planning Manager on February 6, 1984 and approved by the Planning Commission on February 22, 1984.
