LS-1999-1 WHEREAS, application was made for approval of a tentative parcel map to divide one lot into three in the 100 block of Clairmont Avenue on property generally described as: That portion of land in the northwest quarter of quarter section 105 of map no. 166, Rancho de la Nacion, by Morrill, 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 May 11, 1869, described as follows: Beginning at the northeasterly corner of map no. 4268, National Award Homes Subdivision, Unit. No. 1; thence southeasterly along the east boundary of said map to the southeast corner of lot 14 of said map no. 4268, being the true point of beginning; thence continuing southeasterly along said east boundary to the northeasterly corner of lot 13 of said subdivision map; thence southwesterly along the north line of said lot 13 to easterly line of Clairmont Avenue; thence continuing along the westerly prolongation of the north line of lot 13 to the centerline to an intersection with the westerly prolongation of the southerly line of lot 14 of said map no. 4268; thence easterly along said prolongated line to the southwesterly corner of lot 14; thence northeasterly along the south line of said lot 14 to the true point of beginning. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, considered said application and proposed Notice of Exemption at a duly advertised public hearing held on January 10, 2000, at which time the Planning Commission considered oral and documentary evidence; and, WHEREAS, at said public hearing the Planning Commission considered the staff report contained in Case File No. LS-1999-1, 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 Planning Commission of the City of National City, California, that the testimony and evidence introduced in the staff report and public hearing for said tentative parcel map support the following findings: 1. The proposed map is consistent with the National City General Plan, since the map provides for the creation of three single-family lots in a single-family residential zone which will provide opportunities for home ownership. In addition, proposed lot sizes conform with and exceed the 5,000 square foot minimum called for by the RS-2 Combined General Plan/Zoning Map designation. No specific plan has been adopted for the project area. 2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development, since the proposed grading on the relatively level lots will create building pads and yard areas for single-family residences in an area already developed for the same use. 3. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development, since each newly created parcel will measure approximately 6,600 square feet in size in compliance with the requirements of the Land Use Code and consistent with the lot sizes of the surrounding area. 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 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 no such easements are located on the site. 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. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that based on the findings hereinbefore stated, said tentative parcel map for division of one lot into three in the 100 block of Clairmont Avenue is hereby approved subject to the following conditions: 1. A drainage plan shall be submitted for review and approval by the City Engineer showing all of the proposed and existing on- and off -site improvements.
