WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered said application at a duly advertised public hearing held on October 6, 2008, and October 20, 2008, and by Resolution recommended approval of the requested modification; and WHEREAS, the City Council considered said application at a public hearing held on November 18, 2008, 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 No. 2008-31 M1 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 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 that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on November 18, 2008, for the Modification of the Conditions of Approval of Tentative Subdivision Map 2007-15 S to waive the requirement to underground existing utilities, Condition Number 21, support the following findings: 1. The waiver of undergrounding existing utilities will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or be detrimental to the use of other properties in the vicinity as the area is already developed, existing utility poles are prevalent in the surrounding area, the existing utilities on site have been relocated underground, and the removal of the four poles bordering the property may result in installation of additional poles in the area, thereby undergrounding along the property boundaries would not result in a substantial improvement of utilities in the area. Resolution No. 2008 — 263 December 16, 2008 Page 2 2. The waiver to underground existing utilities would not result in decreased property valuation as there is not a comprehensive plan to underground utilities within the general area and the undergrounding completed on site has served to improve the property values in the area. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore stated, said Modification of the Conditions of Approval of Tentative Subdivision Map 2007-15 to waive the requirement to underground the existing utilities at 940 East 16th Street is hereby approved, and Condition Number 21 is modified to read "All utility distribution facilities within the boundaries of the subdivision shall be placed underground." BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that all other Conditions of Approval contained within Resolution 2007-199 remain applicable to Tentative Subdivision Map 2007-15, as written and provided in Exhibit "A", and copies of this Resolution shall be transmitted forthwith to the applicant. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this Resolution be transmitted forthwith to the applicant. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution shall become effective and final on the day following the City Council meeting where the resolution is adopted. The time within which judicial review of this decision may be sought is governed by the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6. PASSED and ADOPTED this 16th day of December, 2008.
