WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed this matter at public meetings

is consistent with the General Plan and Development Code of 46 acres, 22 acres,
and 19 acres,

will not be materially detrimental to property values, jeopardize, endanger or
otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or general welfare of
persons or properties in the surrounding area, nor will it adversely affect the
peace, health, safety or general welfare of the area since conditions of approval
prohibit new development in the coastal setback and in the landslide moratorium
area.

with the free and complete exercise of the public entity and public utility right
of way and/or easements within the tract.
