Is the plan compatible with previously developed properties in the <br /> vicinity and the natural, topographic features of the site? <br /> The project site and surrounding land is currently vacant.

Over 100 trees to soften the appearance of the site <br /> b. A weir, which is a secondary safety drain for the basin <br /> c. On-street parking, sufficient to accommodate the proposed uses <br /> based on staffs experience <br /> d. The tennis court lighting fixtures which are downward facing and <br /> shielded <br /> e. The tennis court lighting levels reduced to approximately 40 foot <br /> candles <br /> f. No truck deliveries, parking lot sweeping, or leaf blowing between <br /> the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. <br /> The site is predominately flat and approximately 350 feet in elevation at all <br /> points. Soil removed to construct the basin will be used as fill on the Staples <br /> Ranch sites. <br /> PUD Findings PUD-80 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br />
