The project is consistent with the City's General Plan. 2. A Mitigated Negative Declaration which addressed the environmental impacts associated with this project was adopted by the City Council on July 28, 1998 and this document determined that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are not considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the Mitigation Monitoring Program. Specifically, police services is an area which has been identified as an area which will be affected by annexation. After mitigation measures are incorporated, impacts to police services will be considered less than significant. 3. The project will not result in an impact to endangered, threatened or rare species or their habitats, or to wildlife dispersal or migration corridors. The project site has been previously disturbed and rough graded in the past, and street improvements installed on site. There are none of the standard indicators (obligate species) that might suggest that there are wetlands on site. The site does not serve as a migration corridor. A DeMinimus impact finding can be made for this project. 4. The proposed annexation area is entirely within the City of Temecula's Sphere of Influence and is contiguous to the City's corporate boundary. The area is substantially surrounded by the City's existing corporate boundary. 5. The territory within the proposed annexation area is within a substantially developed area which is continuing to develop. The proposed annexation area is not prime agricultural land (as defined by Section 56064 of the Government Code), and is designated for urban growth by the City of Temecula's General Plan. R:resos 2000-20 2 6. The project is being proposed on behalf of certain residents within the subject territory in order that the City may provide community services to the residents of said territory in a more responsive and efficient manner. 7. The project will have a positive fiscal impact on the City budget. 8. The project is consistent with the goals, policies, and implementation programs contained in the General Plan. 9. Said findings are supported by the Staff Report analysis, maps, exhibits, attachments and environmental documents associated with this application and herein incorporated by reference. Section 5. Environmental Compliance. A Mitigated Negative Declaration which addressed the environmental impacts associated with this project was adopted by the City Council, and this document indicated that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the Mitigation Monitoring Program were added to the project, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration, therefore, was granted.
