^C WHEREAS, mitigation of various physical impacts have been identified and
incorporated into the approval conditions for Tentative Tract 26148, thereby requirlng that
monitoring of those mitigation measures be undertaken to assure compliance with them; and
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony
and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said City Council did find
the following facts to justify the approval of said extension of time:
1. That Tentative Tract 26148, as conditionally approved, is generally consistent with the
goals, policies and intent of the * Quinta General Plan for land use density, unit type,
circulation requirements, SR 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 east
central 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 26148 may cause substantial environmental
damage or injury to the wildlife habitat of the Coachella valley Fringe-Toed Liaard, but
mitigation measures in the form of fees for a new habitat area wrn 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 26148 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 arc substantially equivalent to those previously
acquired by the public.
6. That the proposed Tentative Tract 26148, as conditioned, provides for adequate
maintenance of the landscape buffer areas.
7. That the proposed Tentative Tract 26148, as conditioned, provides storm water retention,
park facilities, and noise mitigation.
8. 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
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:
