3. The site is physically suitable for the density of the development. <br />The site is physically suitable for the density of the development. The proposed <br />subdivision is designated in the General Plan land use map as Very Low Density <br />Residential, which allows a maximum density of up to 2.7 dwelling units per gross <br />acre. The project site's topography within the developable portion is not <br />significantly sloped, the design of the subdivision will generally follow the grade <br />of the site and will not require excessive grading to yield the number of lots <br />proposed. Both the General Plan and the applicable zoning of the property allow <br />development with this density. In addition, the Planned Residential Development <br />Ordinance allows a maximum density for property in the R-E, Estate Residential <br />district to not exceed 3 dwelling units per net acre. As indicated in the analysis in <br />this staff report, the project proposes a density of 3 dwelling units per net acre, and <br />the project site is physically suitable for the density of development. <br />4. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to cause <br />substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or <br />wildlife. <br />The design of the subdivision and proposed improvements is not likely to cause <br />substantial environmental damage or injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The <br />developable portions of the site do not contain any biological resources including <br />fish or wildlife, and based on the Initial Study that has been prepared for the project, <br />there are no environmental factors that cannot be mitigated to a level of less than <br />significant. <br />S. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious <br />public health problems. <br />The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements are not likely to cause <br />serious public health problems. The proposed project would accommodate a single- <br />family residential subdivision, and is not likely to cause any serious public health <br />problems as the project is designed with improvements that meets all City and State <br />building and fire codes, no offensive emissions or odors will be associated with the <br />development, and the ambient noise will not affect residential properties because <br />all noise will be mitigated to a level of less than significant. <br />The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with <br />easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property <br />within the proposed subdivision. <br />The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with <br />easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property <br />within the proposed subdivision. The project will improve pedestrian access in the <br />immediate vicinity by constructing a public sidewalk on Texas Street and on the <br />interior streets. The project will also construct an extension of the Santa Ana River <br />4 <br />I:\Resolutions\Res 8500-8599\8516 TUC Redland Texas St LLC .docx-ms <br />
