The Tentative Tract Map and its improvement and design, are consistent with the General Plan in that its street design and lots are in conformance with applicable goals, policies, and will provide adequate infrastructure and public utilities. 2. The design of the subdivision and its proposed improvements are not likely to create environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure wildlife or their habitat because the site does not contain significant biological resources. 3. The design of the subdivision and subsequent improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems because the construction of 94 residential units will not have considerable ,cumulative impacts. The project is consistent with the General Plan, and the potential impacts associated with General Plan build out. 4. The design of the subdivision and the proposed types of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of the property within the subdivision in that none presently exist and access is provided within the project and to the adjacent public street (Monroe Street). NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La Quinta, California, as follows: SECTION 1. That the above recitations are true and constitute the findings of the City_ . Council in this case; SECTION 2.
