Access to the lots will be provided through a private drive aisle off Banyan Street; and e. The overall project scope includes Tentative Tract Map SUBTT20853. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above-referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Council hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The tentative tract map is consistent with the General Plan and Development Code. The project site is being subdivided to facilitate the development of one hundred seventy- seven (177) single-family residences that comply with the proposed amendments being considered simultaneously to the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan (EHNCP) and are consistent with the Traditional Neighborhood General Plan land use designation. b. The site is physically suitable for the proposed subdivision. The proposed tentative tract map will subdivide four (4) existing, unimproved parcels into one hundred and seventy-seven (177) numbered lots and nine (9) lettered lots for the development of one hundred and seventy-seven (177) single-family units. The building types and general size and layout of the lots are consistent with the proposed amendments being considered simultaneously to the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan. C. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat. The scope of the project is the subdivision of four(4) unimproved parcels into one hundred and seventy-seven (177) single- family lots. The project site is surrounded by residential development and is in keeping with the proposed amendments being considered simultaneously to the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan. Additionally, the City has prepared an addendum to the Certified Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) (SCH #201711102) prepared for the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan. The proposed amendments do not substantially increase Resolution No. 2026-001 — Page 2 of 5 the severity of effects relative to the topics analyzed in the FEIR, nor would the amendments require new mitigation measures or alternatives; and d. The tentative parcel map is not likely to cause serious public health problems. The scope of the project is the subdivision of four (4) unimproved parcels into one hundred seventy-seven (177) residential lots.A CEQA Certified Final Environmental Impact Report(FEIR) (SCH #201711102) was prepared for the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan, which determined the impacts the project would have on the environment in relation to biological resources, traffic, noise, air quality, or water. An addendum to the FEIR has been prepared showing that no new information of significance has become available nor have any substantial changes occurred to the circumstances since the certification of the FEIR, thus the proposed amendments will not have a significant effect on the environment; and e. The design of the tentative tract map will not conflict with any easement acquired by the public at large, now of record,for access through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision. The subject subdivision does not conflict with existing public rights of way or existing easement. 4. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA")(Pub. Resources Code, § 21000 et seq.) and CEQA Guidelines, the City Council considered the Addendum and the previously certified EHNCP Environmental Impact Report(EIR) (SCH#2017111002) adopted by the City Council in 2019. Consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, the City Council finds and determines that an Addendum to the EIR is the appropriate environmental document to analyze the Project because: a. Some changes or additions to the EIR are necessary, but none of the conditions described in State CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. b. There are no substantial changes proposed by the Project that will require major revisions of the previously adopted EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; C. No substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken that will require major revisions of the previously adopted EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; and d. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the IS/EIR was adopted showing that: (a) the changes proposed with the Project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR; (b) there are significant effects previously examined that will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR; (c) there are mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the City declines to adopt the mitigation measures or alternative; or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the City declines to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
