reference, based upon the findings as follows:
a. That the Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines

that the proposed project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife resources or the
habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in
the Negative Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information provided to the
Planning Commission during the public hearing, the Planning Commission hereby rebuts the
presumption of adverse effect as set forth in Section 753.5(c-1-d) of Title 14 of the California
Code of Regulations.

procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom
