favor of the public for access, ingress and egress of Fire, Police and other emergency
vehicles and personnel established over the vacated portion of Adams Street within
Tentative Parcel Map No. 33367 and the public utility easements over the vacated portion
of Adams Street and Avenue 52 within Tentative Parcel Map No. 33367; and,
WHEREAS, State Government Code Section 65402 requires that prior to
public easements and public utility easements being vacated by the City Council, the
Planning Commission make a finding that the proposed vacation of easement for public
access, ingress and egress of Fire, Police and other emergency vehicles and personnel and
the proposed vacation of public utility easements within Tentative Parcel Map No. 33367
is consistent with the City's General Plan; and,
WHEREAS, said Planning Commission did make the following Mandatory
Finding confirming that the proposed public utility easement vacation is consistent with
the City's General Plan:
1. The proposed public access, ingress and egress and the utility easement vacation
will have no environmental effects that adversely impact the human population,
either directly or indirectly, because the street segment is currently unused by the
public and inaccessible to vehicles; and secondly, the act of vacating the easement
for public access, ingress and egress for Fire, Police and other emergency vehicles
and personnel and the vacating of the public utility easements will have no physical
environmental effect.
2. The public utility easement vacation will not impact public utility agencies, provided
easements are granted for the continued maintenance and operation of relocated
public utilities.
