version of the General Plan Land Use Element, but was not the intent of the City Council to
eliminate from the updated General Plan;
WHEREAS, staff initiated an application to amend the General Plan Land Use Map to
properly denote the correct land use designations for parcels within the "Meadowview" tract as
intended when the tract was created, and as depicted in Attached Exhibit "A", and to reinsert
text related to land use compatibility into the Land Use Element as specified in Attached Exhibit
"B";

WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the Planning Commission's Hearing and after due
consideration of the testimony, the Planning Commission found that the proposal is consistent
with the previously-certified General Plan Environmental Impact Report, and recommended City
Council approval of the amended General Plan Land Use Map and Land Use Element as
described herein;
WHEREAS, the City Council has held a duly noticed publiC hearing on July 12, 2005, to

"Land Use Compatibility
Compatibility between adjacent land uses is essential to achieve a safe, efficient, and well-
organized community. The issues involved in examining the compatit i1ity of proposed projects
includes: traffic generation, access locations, noise impacts, public se/'l ice demands, site design
and visual appearance, and public safety. Land use compatibility is expected to become a greater
issue as the community builds out and commercial/employment uses locate nearer residential
areas. Residents want adequate buffering from non-residential uses in t rms of light, noise, traffic
impacts and negative visual impacts. Compatibility between reside tial projects of different
densities is also a major concern. The development of standard single amily subdivisions within
rural residential areas or adjacent to the wine country for example, c n negatively impact the
overall character of the area. Site design that involves a gradual trans tion of densities within a
project or an adequate open space buffer should be important consider, tions in future residential
projects."
