A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING TENTATIVE
TRACT NO. 33358
WHEREAS, Tentative Tract No. 33358 has been filed, which would create
twenty (20) home sites, for attached multiple family dwelling units, and one
(1) 2.32 acre common area from an existing 3.38 acre parcel;
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has held hearings on this matter and
has recommended approval, subject to Conditional Use Permit No. 25 and stated
conditions; and
WHEREAS, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the City's
Development Code, a public hearing was held on Nov. 15 and Dec. 20 , 1977,
at which time all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and
to present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
does hereby find, determine and resolve as follows:
Section 1: That the creation of twenty-one (21) lots and related im-
provements is consistent with the Development Code and General Plan.
Section 2: The proposed use of the lots is for multiple family dwel-
lings and common open space and recreational facilities, which is compatible
with the objectives, policies, general land use, and programs specified in the
General Plan.
Section 3: That the subject property is physically suitable to accommo-
date Tentative Tract No. 33358 in terms of design and density and will not re-
sult in substantial environmental damage, based on compliance with the City's
Development Code and General Plan, and consideration of information contained in
the Final Environmental Impact Report.
Section 4: That the creation of twenty (20) multiple family lots and
commonly owned lot and associated improvements 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 physical improvements, dedications, and
maintenance agreements are required.
Section 5: That the division and development of the property will not
unreasonably interfere with the free and complete exercise of the public entity
and/or public utility rights of way and/or easements within the tract.
Section 6: Dedications required by local ordinance are shown on the
tentative map and/or set forth in the conditions attached hereto as Exhibit "A".
11/ Section 7: That the City Council does hereby certify that the Final
Environmental Impact Report has been completed in compliance with the C.E.Q.A.
and State guidelines and that the Council has reviewed and considered the con-
tents of the report in reaching its decision. The Council further finds that
the approval of this Tentative Tract Map will not have a significant adverse
environmental impact, because grading has been minimized, drainage is adequately
planned for, and other issues mitigated as discussed in the Final Environmental
Impact Report.
Section 8: For the foregoing reasons, the City Council of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes hereby grants approval of Tentative Tract Map No. 33358,
subject to the attached conditions marked Exhibit "A", which are necessary to
protect the public health, safety and general welfare in the area.
