Section 2: Recommended Findings for approval of PUD Development Plan (PUD-146). With respect to Case No. PUD-146, 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. 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 the 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 General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan Land Use Designations of Retail/Highway/Service Commercial Business and Professional Offices and Downtown Commercial designations permit mixed uses including mixed residential and commercial development, at the densities and intensities proposed by the project ; thus, the Project would be consistent with the General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan Land Use Designations. The project would retain as undeveloped open space the area within the Public Health and Safety Wildland Overlay and Arroyo and Open Space Arroyo designations. The proposed project is located near public transportation, within proximity to the services and amenities of the Downtown area, and in an area already developed with adequately sized infrastructure. In addition, the project would preserve the commercial square-footage utilized on-site. The project would provide housing opportunities within the downtown, as well as new/replacement active commercial uses centered on a new outdoor plaza, consistent with General Plan and Specific Plan policies that seek to promote the downtown as a vibrant mixed-use district.
