d. The extension is within the time limits established by State law and local
ordinance.
e. The project was granted an initial approval period of two years. Subsequently,
the City Council adopted its Ordinance No.596,which established an approval period of five years
with no further time extensions allowed; hence,the project may be extended for up to three years.

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 Negative Declaration,
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
promulgated thereunder; that said Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore
reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission; and, further,this Commission has
reviewed and considered the information contained in said Negative Declaration with regard to the
application.
b. 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 Negative Declaration for the project, there is no evidence 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.
