The plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The proposed apartment development would meet City standards for street improvements and utility design. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service utilities are present in the area surrounding the development and are sufficient to serve the new apartment complex. All on-site infrastructure shall be installed by the project developer with connections to municipal systems in order to serve the site. Drive aisles, driveways, and the fourth leg of the Rosewood Drive/Owens Drive intersection will be designed and constructed to City standards. The project will not generate volumes of traffic which cannot be accommodated by existing City streets and intersections in the area. Adequate access would be provided to all structures and units for police, fire, and other emergency response vehicles. The apartments would be designed to meet the requirements of the UBC and other applicable City codes. The project also would provide affordable rental housing (13 5 units) and help the City to meet its ABAG requirements for provision of lower income housing.
