APPLICANT: FRANK AND LINNEA ARRINGTON. CASE FILE NO. S-2000-2 WHEREAS, application was made for approval of a tentative subdivision map for nine single-family parcels on a vacant, 61,420 square foot lot at the northwest corner of E. 16th Street and M Avenue on property generally described as: Parcel A: Parcel 2 of Parcel Map No. 15423, in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of California, filed in the Office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, October 24, 1988 as File/Page No. 88-542010 of Official Records. Parcel B: An easement for sewer purposes over, under, along and across the easterly 10.00 feet of Parcel 3 of Parcel Map No. 6919, in the City of National City, County of San Diego, State of California, filed in the Office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, February 22, 1978 as File/Page No. 78-070791 of Official Records. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, considered said application at public hearing held on September 18, 2000, and by Resolution recommended conditional approval of the application; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered said application at a public hearing held on November 28, 2000, at which time oral and documentary evidence was presented; and, WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report contained in Case File No. S-2000-2 which is maintained by the City and incorporated herein by reference; along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and, WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State law and City law; and, WHEREAS, the action hereby taken is found to be essential for the preservation of the 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 nine single-family parcels based on the following findings: Resolution No. 2000 — 161 December 12, 2000 Page Two 1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan, since the map provides for the development of nine single-family homes in a single-family residential zone; and since the General Plan encourages the opportunities for home ownership which will be created by the project. No Specific Plan has been adopted for the project area. 2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since the 1.41-acre lot can accommodate building pads for nine homes on lots at least 5,000 square feet in size. 3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since the property is in an existing residential neighborhood. 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 the project is located on a disturbed site in an urban area and 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 there will be no alterations or improvements to existing easements crossing the proposed parcels. 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 Planning Commission 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. Resolution No. 2000 —161 December 12, 2000 Page Three BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore stated, said tentative subdivision map for division of a vacant 61,420 square foot lot into nine single- family parcels at the northwest corner of E. 16th Street and M Avenue is hereby approved subject to the following conditions: 1.
