The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and d. The applicant conducted one neighborhood meeting to inform surrounding neighborhood residents of the proposed project and to obtain their feedback; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-118 SUBTT16454 - KB HOME GREATER LOS ANGELES, INC. August 27, 2003 Page 2 e. The project design is consistent with the Etiwanda Specific Plan, and the Basic Development Standards therein, including, but not limited to, the following goals and policies: i) Create opportunities wherein a population diverse in terms of income, age, occupation, race, ethnic background, lifestyle, values, interests, and religion may interact,exchange ideas, and realize common goals. (Project would create single-family detached homes with differing price ranges adjacent to other single-family detached homes and multiple family attached homes.) ii) Encourage opportunities to mix different, but compatible, land uses and activities. (Project would add single-family detached residences adjacent to proposed multiple family attached residences. Residential land uses are considered compatible as opposed to more intense commercial uses.) iii) Organize land uses to avoid creating nuisances among adjacent land uses. (Consistent with the City's General Plan intent for Low-Medium Residential District, this project will result in an orderly transition in density from the Medium Residential District to the northeast adjacent to the 1-15 Freeway.) 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The tentative tract is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code,and any applicable specific plans; and b. The design or improvements of the tentative tract is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans; and C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and d. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and e. The tentative tract is not likely to cause serious public health problems; and f. The design of the tentative tract 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. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines promulgated thereunder; that said Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission; and, further, this PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-118 SUBTT16454 - KB HOME GREATER LOS ANGELES, INC. August 27, 2003 Page 3 Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in said Mitigated Negative Declaration with regard to the application. b. Although the Mitigated Negative Declaration identifies certain significant environmental effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects have been reduced to an acceptable level by imposition of mitigation measures on the project which are listed below as conditions of approval. C. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 753.5(c) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, the Planning Commission finds as follows: In considering the record as a whole, the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife resources orthe habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in the Mitigated 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. 5.
