WHEREAS, the Planning and Development Director has determined
that the proposed amendment is exempt from CEQA; and,
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said
Planning Commission did find the following facts to justify recommendation for
approval of said amendment request:
Approval of Tentative Tract 24507, Amendment #1, will not have any adverse
effect on the environment, as the original design has not been altered, and
therefore, the initial determination that Tentative Tract 24507 will not have any
significant impact on the environment, remains valid.
That the approval process for Annexation #5 has delayed implementation of
Tentative Tract 24507, as conditionally approved, and the proposed amendment
is justified in order to compensate for that delay.
That the proposed Tentative Tract 24507, Amendment #1, as conditionally
approved, is consistent with the goals, policies, and intent of the La Quinta
General Plan for land use density, circulation requirements, zoning district
development standards, and design requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance
and the La Quinta Municipal Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of
the City of La Quinta, California as follows:
That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings of
the Commission in this case;
That it does hereby recommend confirmation of the Planning and Development
Director's determination relative to the environmental concerns for this
amendment request.
That it does hereby recommend approval to the City Council of the subject
Tentative Tract Map 24507, Amendment #1 for the reasons set forth in this
Resolution and subject to the attached conditions.
