Environmental Impact Report was certified and Mitigation Measures and a Mitigation

implements the Downtown Specific Plan, which is a further refinement of the goals
and objectives of the General Plan.

proposed project and all required improvements can be provided on site, and the
project would comply with the applicable development standards or has been
granted the appropriate exemptions.

proposed project and all required improvements can be provided on site, and the
project would comply with the applicable development standards or has been
granted the appropriate exemptions.
5. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat, since the site is was previously developed and is located in a
completely urbanized area.
6. The design of the subdivision and the proposed/required improvements are not
likely to cause serious public health problems, since all necessary public services,
facilities, infrastructure, and utilities will be provided.

conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of
the property within the proposed subdivision, or such easements will be provided or
relocated as required.

66474.6.
9. 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.
10. 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.
