RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
APPROVING A TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FOR A MIXED -USE
CONDOMINIUM PROJECT TO BE LOCATED AT 341 EAST 30' STREET
(CASE FILE NO. 2016-23 S; APN: 562-190-32)
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a Tentative
Subdivision Map for a Mixed -Use Condominium Project to be located at 341 East 30TH Street at
a duly advertised public hearing held on June 6, 2017, at which time the City Council considered
evidence; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report
provided for Case File No. 2016-23 S, which is maintained by the City and incorporated herein
by reference; along with any other evidence presented 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, that the evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on June
6, 2017, support the following findings:
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP
1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable specific
plans, because the project is in compliance with all required density and floor area
maximums; provides additional home and business ownership opportunities, consistent
with the General Plan and Housing Element, and meets all requirements of the
Subdivision Ordinance (Title 17 of the National City Municipal Code), including minimum
lot size and dimension.
2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, because the 12,500
square -foot lot can accommodate the requested number of units within the limits for density
and floor area established by the General Plan and Land Use Code.
3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, because the
proposed multi -family residential development, at a density of 41 units per acre, is less than
the 48 units per acre allowed in the Minor Mixed -Use Corridor (MXC-1) zone, and the
proposed infill development increases the available housing units in the City.
4. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or
their habitat, because there is no natural habitat in the area or bodies of water present on -
site. In addition, the property is surrounded by urban development and is currently
developed with a residential use.
Resolution No. 2017 — 94
June 6, 2017

5. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements are not likely to
cause serious public health problems, because the property is currently developed and
surrounded by existing residential developments. In addition, the land use and zoning
designations allow for the density requested, which was analyzed as part of the
environmental document associated with the most recent land use update.
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, because no such easements would be affected by the proposed
development.
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, because the project is
required to install and/or upgrade to current requirements for sewage disposal by the
Conditions of Approval of this permit.
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, because the
project will provide eleven new homeownership opportunities, which is consistent with and
encouraged by the City's Housing Element.
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, because the
existing property is already developed and the site is surrounded by existing residential
development. All new construction proposed in the future will be in compliance with the
California Building Code, which takes such factors in to consideration.
10. That the proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act, because staff has determined the proposed use to be
categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 32 Section 15332 (In -
Fill Development Projects), for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to
approval of this Tentative Subdivision Map.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for Tentative Subdivision Map is
approved subject to the following conditions:
