^#B 5,
1. That Tentative Tract 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 requirements, R- 1 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 suitable for the proposed land division.
3. That the design of Tentative Tract 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 25363 will not conffict 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 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 time extension, 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, BE 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;
2. That it does hereby confirm and recertify the conclusion of Environmental Assessment
9O*l57 relative to the environmental concerns of this tentative tract;
3. That it does hereby approve the subject time extension for Tentative Tract 25363 for the
reasons set forth in this Resolution and subject to the attached conditions.
