The site is physically suitable for the type and density of the development since the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the professional office as proposed. The project is consistent with all City public facility pol- icies and ordinances since: a) b) C) The Design Review Board has, by inclusion of an appropriate condition to this project, ensured building permits will not be issued for the project unless the Citl 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. 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 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. This project will not cause any significant environmental impacts and a Negative Declaration has been issued by the Planning Director on March 14, 1987 and approved by the Design Reveiw Board on April 22, 1987. 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 reason: stated in the staff report. If the improvements or facilitie: are not provided the project will create an unmitigated burder 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. The applicant is by condition, required to pay any increase ir public facility fee, or new construction tax, or development fees, and has agreed to abide by any additional requirements established by a development management or public facility program ultimately adopted by the City of Carlsbad. This will ensure continued availability of public facilities and will mitigate any cumulative impacts created by the project..
