The plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: The EIR for the project has analyzed in detail the potential effects of developing the project site. Although the EIR identified a number of issues as potentially significant adverse impacts, the EIR recommends mitigation measures which would reduce the impacts to an acceptable or less than significant level. 2. The plan is consistent with the City'S General Plan: As discussed previously, the plan as proposed is consistent with General Plan policies concerning the establishment of residential land use designations. These policies include compatibility with adjacent uses, preservation of environmentally sensitive areas, minimizing impacts on adjacent streets, and minimizing potential impacts to environmentally hazardous areas. While the plan is not consistent with the existing General Plan, it would be consistent with the city council initiated amendment to Low Density Residential land use designation. II . I . .
