APPLICANT: PARADISE KNOLL PARTNERSHIP/WILIFRIDO C. NAVAL. CASE FILE NOS. S-1999-1/IS-1999-1 WHEREAS, application was made for approval of a tentative subdivision map for the division of one parcel into eleven at the southeast corner of 9"' Street and Paradise Drive on property generally described as: All that portion of Lot 13 of Hills of Paradise, in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of California, according to map thereof no. 1860, recorded in the office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, September 23, 1925, lying northerly of a line drawn parallel and distance northerly 145.00 feet, measured at right angles from the southerly line of said lot 13. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, considered said application and proposed Negative Declaration No. IS-1999-1 at public hearings held on August 16 and September 20, 1999, and by Resolution recommended conditional approval of the application; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered said application and proposed Negative Declaration No. IS-1999-1 at a public hearing held on October 12, 1999, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and, WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report prepared for Case File Nos. S-1999-1 and IS-1999-1 which is maintained by the City, and incorporated herein by reference; and, WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State and City law; and, WHEREAS, the action recited herein is found to be essential for the preservation of public health, safety and general welfare. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National City, California, that it hereby approves the tentative subdivision map to divide one parcel into eleven parcels based on the following findings: CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 Resolution No. 99-171 Page 2 1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable specific plans, since the map provides for the widening of 9th Street as required by Specific Plan-10- 76, and the map provides for the development of eleven single -family -homes in a single- family zone which will provide opportunities for home ownership. In addition, proposed lot sizes conform with the 5,000 square foot minimum called for by the combined General Plan/Zoning designation. 2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since the proposed grading will accommodate building pads and yard areas for 1,600 square -foot homes. 3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since split-level building sites and larger than standard lots will provide useable yard areas on the lots affected by larger slopes. 4. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, since no unique environmental resources exist on the site. 5. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems, since all necessary public services will be provided. 6. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision, since no such easements are located on the site. 7. The discharge of sewerage waste from the subdivision into the City of National City sewer system will not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Quality Control Board pursuant to Division 7 (commencing with Section 13000) of the Water Code, as specified by Government Code Section 66474.6. 8. The subdivision has been considered by the City Council with regard to its effect on the housing needs of the region, and these needs are balanced by the public service needs of the residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. 9. The design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive and natural heating and cooling opportunities in the subdivision, based on consideration of local climate, topography, property configuration and other design and improvement requirements without requiring reduction in allowable density or lot coverage. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 Resolution No. 99-171 Page 3 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council has considered the proposed Negative Declaration No. IS-1999-1, together with any comments received during the public review process, and finds on the basis of the Initial Study and any comments received that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment, approves the proposed Negative Declaration, and authorizes the filing of a Notice of Determination.
