The surrounding parcels to the north, south, and east are developed with single- family residential units and townhome units, the parcel to the west is a flood control channel; and c. The proposed subdivision, 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 Planning Department staff previously determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualified under the Class 32 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 — In-Fill Development Projects - because the project includes in-fill development consistent with the applicable General Plan designation and regulations. In addition, there was no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission reviewed the project and the Planning Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent judgment, concurred in staff's determination of exemption on October 8, 2014. There continues to be no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4 above, this Commission hereby grants a time extension. The new expiration date for Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18928 is October 8, 2019. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 18-73 TIME EXTENSION DRC2018-00659 —ALEX MUSTAPHA October 24, 2018 Page 3 6.
