3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the

above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The proposed tentative parcel map is in accord with the General Plan, the
objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located.
The proposed parcel map is in conjunction with an industrial office/warehouse complex consisting of
three(3)office/warehouse buildings. The underlying General Plan designation is General Industrial.
b. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map, 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. The project site is vacant; the proposed land use is
consistent with the land use to the north and east, and the expectations of the community. The
zoning of the properties to the north and east are General Industrial (GI) District. The zoning of the
properties to the southeast is Low-Medium (LM) Residential District.
C. The proposed tentative parcel map complies with each of the applicable provisions
of the Development Code. The proposed tentative parcel map meets all standards outlined in the
Development Code and the design and development standards and policies of the Planning
Commission and the City.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all
written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application,the Planning
Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required
pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and
approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA")and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on November 10, 2010, in
connection with the City's approval of the Development Review of a twelve (12) building
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 14-18

Page 3
industrial/warehouse complex and 13 lot subdivision. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162,
no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with
subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are
proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii)substantial
changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that
indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the
project will have more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation
measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to
substantially reduce impacts.
b. The Planning Commission finds, in connection with the design review of the three
(3) industrial building and the merger of nine (9) parcels into three (3) parcels, that substantial
changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would
create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated Negative
Declaration. The new project is similar in size as the previous approval and the new updated
studies have identified only a minor change to the previous mitigation measures. This change is in
accordance with the previous Mitigation Monitoring Program, but a new mitigation measure now
requires the applicant to construct a sound wall a minimum of eight (8) feet in height along the
northwestern property line. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant
effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration, not have more severe effects
than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to
reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less-than-significant. The project is substantially the
same as the previous project with the exception of the added 323 square foot of industrial building
and the reduction of parcels and buildings from nine (9)to three (3) all the changes were included in
the Addendum analysis. The analysis concludes that the project will not have a significant increase
on traffic or a significant impact on air quality. The updated studies indicate no new significant
effects that were not previously analyzed, and the Addendum to the original environmental mitigation
monitoring program is minor.
C. Based on these findings and all evidence in the record, the Planning Commission
concurs with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required pursuant to
CEQA in connection with the City's consideration of Tentative Tract Map SUBTPM19518 and
adopts an Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts that was
adopted by the Planning Commission on November 10, 2010.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth
below and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
