The City Council approving Planning Application No. PA96-0020 (General Plan Amendment), makes the following findings, to wit: 1. Planning Application No. PA96-0020 (General Plan Amendment), as proposed, is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community. 2. Planning Application No. PA96-0020 (General Plan Amendment) is consistent with the City's General Plan, due to the fact that the subject request is in substantial conformance with Specific Plan No. 199 - Margarita Village. 3. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The project consists of an amendment to the General Plan Land Use Plan for Planning Areas No. 38 and 40 of Specific Plan No. 199 - Margarita Village from High Density Residential to Medium Density Residential. Ultimate development of the site will be residential development in an area that is comprised of a variety of sizes of residences. 4. The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, because it does not represent a significant change to the planned land use of the area, due to the fact that the proposed land use is consistent with the overall concept of Specific Plan No. 199. 5. The changes proposed in the approved Specific Plan are minor and do not increase the impacts associated with the development or the overall intensity of the development as analyzed in Environmental Impact Report 202. The mitigation measures prepared for this Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be applied to this project. Section 3. Environmental Coml2liance, Environmental Impact Report No. 202 was prepared for Specific Plan No. 199 and was certified by the County Board of Supervisors. It has been eight (8) years since the environmental analysis was performed for this project. It is Staff's opinion that due to the limited scope of the proposed Zoning Amendment, there will be no effect on the previous analysis. According to Section 21166 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), no subsequent or supplemental environmental impact report is required for the project unless one or more of the following events occurs: substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the EIR; substantial changes occur with respect to circumstance under which the project is being undertaken which will require major revisions in the EIR; or, new information, which was not known at the time of the EIR was certified and complete becomes available. None of these situations have occuffed; therefore, no further environmental analysis is required. Section 4.
