development of regional commercial and commercial park uses north of Highway
111 to the Stormwater Channel, as conditioned.
2. The proposed Specific Plan will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and
welfare, as it has been designed to be compatible with surrounding development,
and conform with the City's standards and requirements, as conditioned.
