However, there would not be a significant effect in this case, because appropriate mitigation measures were made a part of the Conditions of Approval for Specific Plan 2000-048, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact will be filed; and WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments of all interested persons wanting to be heard, said City Council did make the following mandatory findings of approval for said Specific Plan 2000-048: Finding Number 1 - Consistency with General Plan/Zoning Code I. The proposed Specific Plan is consistent with the goals and policies of the La Quinta General Plan, and the Land Use Map for the General Plan, as amended, and supports the development of a mix of low density residential of less than four units per acre, as conditioned. Resolution No. 2000-152 Specific Plan 2000-048 November 21, 2000 Page 2 Il. The proposed Specific Plan is compatible with the City's zoning ordinance in that it provides standards for the proposed land use, and implements requirements for Site Development Permits, as stipulated. Finding Number 2 - Compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act A Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact has been prepared by the Community Development Department as required by the California Environmental Quality Act statutes. The assessment concludes that the project will not significantly affect the environment, provided Mitigation Monitoring is completed (EA 2000-401). In this case, project mitigation includes berming and noise reduction measures, archaeological monitoring, and on -site water retention. Finding Number 3 - Site Design The project, as conditioned, is compatible with the City's standards and existing surrounding development. Conditions of approval have been included to ensure compliance with the City's standards. Each component of the proposed Specific Plan will be required to submit Site Development Permit applications prior to development of the site. Finding Number 4 - Site Improvements The extension of all public services, as required, will provide for the logical expansion of services in the City. II. All improvements within and adjacent to the proposed project will be constructed to meet City standards and be compatible with surrounding development. III. The Specific Plan, as conditioned, will not pose a hazard to the public health, welfare or safety.
