#< 1. That Tentative Tract No. 25363, as conditionally
approved, is generally consistent with the goals,
policies and intent of the La Quinta General Plan
for land use density, unit type, circulation
requirernents, R-l zoning district development
standards, and design requirements of the
Subdivision Ordinance.
2. That the subject site has a rolling topography
because of the sand dunes with the southeast area
being the lowest part of the site. The proposed
circulation design and single-family lot layouts,
as conditioned, are, therefore, suitable for the
proposed land division.
3. That the design of Tentative Tract Map No. 25363
may cause substantial environmental damage or
injury to the wildlife habitat of the Coachella
Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard, but mitigation measures
in the form of fees for a new habitat area will
lessen this impact.
4. That the design of the subdivision, as
conditionally approved, will be developed with
public sewers and water, and, therefore, is not
likely to cause serious public health problems.
5. That the design of Tentative Tract Map No. 25363
will not conflict with easements acquired by the
public at large for access through the project,
since alternate easements for access and for use
have been provided that are substantially
equivalent to those previously acquired by the
public.
6. That the proposed Tentative Tract No. 25363, as
conditioned, provides storm water retention, park
facilities, and noise mitigation.
7. That general impacts from the proposed tract were
considered within the MEA prepared and adopted in
conjunction with the La Quinta General Plan.
WHEREAS, in the review of this Tentative Tract Map,
the City Council has considered the effect of the contemplated
action of the housing needs of the region for purposes of
balancing the needs against the public service needs of the
residents of the City of La Quinta and its environs with
available fiscal and environmental resources;
NOW, THEREFORE, *E IT RESOLVED by the City Council
of the City of La Quinta, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and
constitute the findings of the Council in this case;
