Furthermore, LAFCO would review the development applications for the project site to ensure consistency with LAFCO policies. Section 3: Recommended Findings for approval of PUD Development Plan (PUD-147) With respect to Case No. PUD-147, the Planning Commission recommends the City Council make the following findings and determinations with respect to each of the considerations for a PUD Development Plan as required by Section 18.68.110 of the PMC: 1. Whether the plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: The Project, as conditioned, meets all applicable City standards concerning public health, safety, and welfare. The Project would include the installation of all required on-site utilities with connections to municipal systems to serve the new development. With the recommended traffic improvements/mitigations, the Project will not generate volumes of traffic that cannot be accommodated by existing City streets and intersections in the area. The structures would be designed to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code, Fire Code, and other applicable City codes. Adequate access would be provided to the structures for police, fire, and other emergency response vehicles. Stormwater run -off from the site will be treated before leaving the site. Construction hour limits and dust suppression requirements would minimize construction impacts on the surrounding residents and tenants. The Project is compatible with the adjacent uses and would be consistent with the existing scale and character of the area. Therefore, it is recommended the proposed PUD development plan is in the best interests of public health, safety, and general welfare, and this finding can be made. 2. Whether the plan is consistent with the City's General Plan and any applicable specific plan: The Property’s Land Use Designation of Low-Density Residential (LDR) and Housing Element Sites Overlay (HESO) permits residential uses; thus, the Project would be consistent with the General Plan Land Use Designation. The proposed density of two dwelling units per approximate acre, plus a 20 percent density bonus as allowed under State Density Bonus Law, is consistent with the General Plan. The Project would further several General Plan Programs and Policies including: encouraging the reuse of vacant and underutilized parcels by development on an underutilized former orchard within the existing urban area; encourage the use of density bonuses in residential projects that include housing units affordable to extremely low-, very low‑, low‑, and moderate-income households and support development and maintenance of affordable senior housing and supportive services to facilitate maximum independence and the ability of seniors to remain in their homes and/or the community. The project would also be in conformance with the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance, which requires each residential and non‑residential development to which the Ordinance applies, to include its pro‑rata share of housing needs for lower- and moderate-income households. City policies strongly encouraged that the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance requirements be met by building housing affordable to Docusign Envelope ID: 3D940908-F9E6-4E95-88B1-1EA134A568D0
