WHEREAS, Tentative Parcel Map No. 7977 has been filed, which would allow
for the division of a 1.33 acre lot into three (3) parcels, being a division of
Lot 4 of recorded Tract 26414 located on Forrestal Drive; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed this matter at a public
meeting on December 13, 1977, at which time all interested parties were given an
opportunity to be heard and to present evidence.

DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

each with a minimum area of at least 13,000 square feet is consistent with the
General Plan and Development Code.
Section 2: That the proposed use of the lots is for single family dwellings
and associated uses, which is compatible with the objectives, policies, and general
land use specified in the General Plan.
Section 3: That the site is physically suitable to accommodate Tentative
Parcel Map No. 7977 in terms of design and density, and will not result in substantial
environmental damage, based on compliance with the City's Development Code and General
Plan, and consideration of information contained in the project's negative declaration
for Environmental Assessment No. 318.
Section 4: That the creation of three (3) single family lots and potential
improvements will not be materially detrimental to property values, jeopardize, en-
danger, or otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or general
welfare of personsor properties in the surrounding area, nor will it adversely affect
the peace, health, safety or general welfare of the area since Conditions of approval
require site improvements and dedications.
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
public utility rights of way and/or easements within the parcel map.

declaration was granted in compliance with City and State Environmental Impact Report
guidelines and that the Commission has reviewed and considered the contents of the

the approval of this parcel map will not have a significant adverse environmental
impact because potential impacts are mitigated as discussed in the initial study.
