FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
OF THE TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP
roposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan and applicable specific
p ', because the project is in compliance with all required density and zoning
requirements, provides additional home ownership opportunities consistent with the
General Plan and Housing Element, and meets all requirements of the Subdivision
Ordinance (NCMC Title 17), including minimum lot size and dimension. There are no
specific plans in the area.
2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, because the 1.7-acre
property can accommodate the requested number of units within the limits for density and
lot coverage 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 17 units per acre, is less than
the 23 units per acre allowed in the Medium -Density Multi -Unit Residential (RM-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 lik

9. esign of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive and natural

climate, topography, property configuration and other design and improvement
requirements without requiring reduction in allowable density or lot coverage, because the
landscape plan submitted as part of the proposal provides in excess of the required
common open space area for such developments. All new construction proposed will be in
compliance with the California Building Code, which takes such factors in to consideration.
