National City that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at the public
hearing held on August 17, 2004, and continued to the meetings of September 21,
2004, and October 5, 2004, support the following findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since there
is adequate area on the 10,500 square foot lot for a second house with
sufficient yard area and required off-street parking.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate
in width and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic generated
by the proposed use, since the proposed house will add only several
Average Daily Trips to the local residential roads in the area, and since
roads were intended to handle the type of traffic generated by the proposal.

abutting properties, since the proposed house has been designed to be
compatible with both the existing house on the property and nearby
development, and since the new house is similar to existing development in
the area.
