b. The design or improvements of the Tentative Parcel Map 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

from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA
Guidelines. The project qualifies under as a Class 15 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines
