Furthermore, the applicants accepted the additional modified conditions recommended by the Planning Commission.

PUBLIC NOTICE Notice of this application was sent to all property owners living within 1,000 feet of the subject property. As of the writing of this staff report, staff has received no public comment. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT An Environmental Impact Report was prepared and certified for the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) specifies that individual residential development projects that are prepared pursuant to the requirements of an adopted specific plan, for which an EIR has been prepared and certified, are exempt from additional environmental review. Therefore, no environmental document accompanies this report. CONCLUSION Staff believes that as conditioned, the proposed development will be attractive. The applicants have addressed all of the standards and guidelines of the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan for this area, including architectural and landscape design criteria, grading, and geotechnical concerns. Staff believes this development is consistent with the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan and will be an attractive addition to the Plan area. _____S~bmi~~1_b~: i ~~~~-- Donna Decker Acting Director of Planning and Community Development Fiscal Review: Approved y: i~~ , , David P.
