WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said City
Council did make the following findings to justify the certification of said Amended
Environmental Assessment:
1. The design of Tentative Tract 26718 will not cause adverse environmental
impacts to cultural resources or from noise impacts as these resources have
been investigated, and mitigation measures included in the Conditions of
Approval that will reduce the impacts to a level less than significant.
2. Proposed Tentative Tract 26718 is not likely to cause public health problems as
the project has been reviewed by the Fire Department and the Building & Safety
Department for those specific issues.
3. The design of Tentative Tract 2671 8 will not conflict with existing public
easements, as the project has been designed around, and with consideration for,
these easements.

La Quinta, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and constitutes the findings of
the City Council in this case;
