The proposed map is consistent with the General Plan. The North Sycamore Specific Plan was developed to implement the City's General Plan for the North Sycamore Area. The Sycamore Specific Plan has been found to be consistent with the General Plan policies including development outside 100-year flood zone areas, development on stable soils, construction (future) of semi-custom housing stock, and densities consistent with surrounding properties. Furthermore, the City Council has found that the PUD development plan is consistent with the General Plan and the proposed subdivision application is consistent with the approved PUD development plan. The proposed project will not alter any issue that would change its compatibility with the General Plan. 2. The site is physically suitable for this type of development and density. Although the construction of the proposed project will involve site grading and alteration of the existing topography, this would be achieved within City standards. The results of the geologic/soil study submitted in conjunction with the original PUD application indicate that the site is suitable for residential development. In addition, additional review and inspection is required as part of the construction of the residential units to ensure that there are no unforeseen impacts.
