Resolution No. PC-2002-55 <br />Page 2 <br />grading and alteration of existing topography. The results of the <br />geologic/soil study submitted in conjunction with the original PUD <br />development plan indicated that the overall site is suitable for the <br />development types covered by this subdivision. No significant, existing <br />drainage courses would be altered. Existing trees to be removed deemed <br />to be unavoidable with the PUD development plan would be mitigated in <br />accordance with the requirements set forth by the Final Environmental <br />Impact Report approved by the City Council for the Happy Valley <br />Specific Plan and with the PUD development plan approval. <br />3. The design of the subdivision and improvements covered by the <br />proposed vesting tentative subdivision map will not cause <br />substantial environmental damage and avoidably injure fish and/or <br />wildlife or their habitat. <br />The geotechnical status of the slope stability along the west side of the <br />proposed public street was reviewed and peer-reviewed by geotechnical <br />consultants, the determination being made that the proposed street is on <br />stable land. Identified mitigation measures were incorporated into the <br />project design to achieve stable slope banks and site grading. Grading has <br />been designed to reflect existing topographic conditions, minimize <br />impacts on adjoining properties, and to be consistent with the <br />requirements and geotechnical report recommendations. A stormwater <br />detention basin would provide a settling azea by which suspended solids <br />from the stonnwater runoff would be removed, thereby clarifying the <br />stormwater before it enters azea creeks and ultimately the San Francisco <br />Bay. Adequate access is provided to all structures for police, fire, and <br />other emergency vehicles. Development is kept away from <br />environmentally sensitive azeas. <br />4. The design of the proposed subdivision is not likely to cause <br />serious public health problems. <br />The proposed project, including the recommended conditions of approval, <br />meets all applicable City standazds pertaining to public health, safety, and <br />welfaze, e.g., vehicle access, geologic hazards, and flood hazards. All <br />public safety measures are addressed through the design and conditions of <br />approval for the tentative subdivision map. <br />5. The design of the subdivision or its related improvements will not <br />conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access <br />through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. <br />Public road connections would be provided to the adjoining Wentworth <br />property (949-013-003) to the east, and emergency vehicle access <br />connections would be provided to the Municipal Golf Course. <br />
