Resolution No. PC -2009-11 Page Three burrowing owls should they be found on the site. Pretreatment of urban storm water runoff has been incorporated into the project's design. Best management practices have been required to minimize construction impacts. Although 39 trees would be removed as part of the subdivision improvements, they are older orchard trees past their prime. Therefore, this finding can be made. 6. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. The proposed project meets all applicable City standards pertaining to public health, safety, and welfare (e.g., adequate public utilities and services, road design and traffic safety, fire hazards, geologic hazards, flood hazards, etc.). All public safety measures are addressed through the design and Conditions of Approval for the PUD and Tentative Subdivision Map. The streets, gated entry, and emergency vehicle access (EVA) connections of the proposed development are satisfactory and can be negotiated by fire and other emergency vehicles. The homes would be equipped with automatic residential fire sprinklers and would be required to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code, Fire Code, other applicable City codes, and State of California energy and accessibility requirements. The site is free from any toxic or hazardous materials. No earthquake, landslide, flooding, or other natural hazards exist at this site at a level deemed "unacceptable" in the General Plan. Therefore, this finding can be made. 7. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements does not conflict with easements for access through, or use of, the property. No easements exist. The Tentative Map establishes the easements shown on the PUD development plan or required in the PUD Conditions of Approval. Therefore, this finding can be made. 8. The restriction approving a tentative subdivision map on land covered by a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act) is not applicable. The site is not covered by such a contract. Therefore, this finding can be made. 9. The discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision would not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). No violation currently exists at the wastewater treatment plant. Capacity is available for this subdivision. The project would not discharge any waste other than domestic sewage. Urban stormwater runoff is required to meet the City's RWQCB permit requirements for urban development. Therefore, this finding can be made.
