Quinta General Plan and the standards of the Municipal Land Division
Ordinance.
That the subject site is physically suitable for the proposed land division.
That Tentative Tract 26139, as conditioned, is consistent with the approval
and conditions of Tract 21643, of which the subject tract is a part.
The improvements to be required for the development of Tentative Tract 26139
will insure that adequate access, circulation, and public utilities are provided
for the health, safety, and welfare of its residents.
5. That the impacts associated with development of Tentative Tract 26139 can be
mitigated through the approval conditions imposed upon it, as well as through
adherence to those conditions of the PGA West Specific Plan which are
