d. This amendment promotes the goals and objectives of the Land Use
Element; and
e. This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to
the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the
environment nor the surrounding properties.
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. That the subject property is suitable for the uses permitted in the
proposed district in terms of access, size, and compatibility with existing land
use in the surrounding area; and
b. That the proposed amendment would not have significant impacts on
the environment nor the surrounding properties; and
c. That the proposed amendment is in conformance with the General
Plan.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed 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 recommends adoption of 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. That, based upon the changes and alterations which have been
incorporated into the proposed project, no significant adverse environmental
effects will occur.
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 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 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.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2,
3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby recommends approval of Industrial Area
Specific Plan Amendment No. 95-01.
