reference.
Section 2. Findin.qs The City Council, in approving Planning Application No. 99-0451
(General Plan Amendment) hereby makes the following findings:
The amendment is compatible with existing and surrounding uses, as the site is
adjacent to similarly designated Highway/Tourist Commercial properties developed
as a hotel and a restaurant. In addition, the site is adjacent to 1-15 and high density
residential.
The amendment will not have an adverse effect on the community and is consistent
with the goals and policies of the adopted General Plan. In fact, the amendment is
necessary because of a mapping error when the General Plan Land Use Map was
prepared.
The amendments are compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the
community.

this project to determine if the proposed changes would result in any environmental impacts
beyond those impacts identified in the Final Environmental Impact Report for the City General

in impacts beyond those originally anticipated for the City General Plan. As a result, the City
Council determines that the potential impacts of this change was adequately addressed by the
Final Environmental Impact Report for the City General Plan and that no further environmental
analysis is required.
