#<Y That Tentative Tract No. 25691, as conditionally
approved, is consistent with the goals, policies,
and intent of the La Quinta General Plan for land
use density in that the property is designated for
low density development, circulation requirements,
and the proposed R-1 zoning district development
standards, and the design requirements of the
Subdivision Ordinance.
2. That the subject site has a rolling topography due
to sand dunes, and 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. 25691 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. 25691
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. 25691, as
conditioned, provides for adequate maintenance of
the landscape buffer areas, parking area and storm
water retention and other common areas.
7. That the proposed Tentative Tract No. 25691, as
conditioned, will provide storm water retention,
park facilities, and noise mitigation as required by
the La Quinta General Plan.
8. That general impacts from the proposed tract were
considered within the MEA prepared and adopted in
conjunction with the La Quinta General Plan, and
were further considered during preparation of
Environmental Assessment No. 90-156 and its required
monitoring program to be implemented by the
Applicant.
