Staff has reviewed the proposal and finds that Tentative Tract Map No. 32170 is

B. The tentative map does not divide land which is subject to a contract entered
into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, or the land is subject to a Land
Conservation Act contract but the resulting parcels following division of the land will not be too
small to sustain their agricultural use;
The proposed land division is not land designated for conservation or agricultural use.
C. The site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of development
proposed by the tentative map;
The project consists of a Tract Map for condominium purposes on property designated
for residential uses, which is consistent with the General Plan and Harveston Specific
Plan. The proposed tentative tract map conforms with a separate Development Plan for
residential condominium units which has not yet been approved by the Planning
Commission. The Development Plan must be approved prior to recordation of the final
map thereby ensuring that the site is suitable for the type and proposed density of the
development.
D. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, with conditions
of approval, are not likely to cause significant environmental damage or substantially and
avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat;
An Environmental Impact Report has been previously prepared and adopted in
association with the Harveston Specific Plan. The project has been conditioned to
implement applicable mitigation measures identified in the EIR.
E. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely to
cause serious public health problems;
The project has been reviewed and commented on by the Fire Safety Department, the
Public Works Department and the Building and Safety Department. As a result, the
project will be conditioned to address their concerns. Further, provisions are made in
the General Plan and the Development Code to ensure that the public health, safety
and welfare are safeguarded. The project is consistent with these documents.
F. The design of the subdivision provides for future passive or natural heating or
cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible;
The proposed tentative tract map has been designed to provide for future passive or
natural heating and cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible,
because the construction plans will comply with all applicable building codes and State
energy guidelines.
G. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with
easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the
proposed subdivision, or the design of the alternate easements which are substantially
equivalent to those previously acquired by the public will be provided;
All required rights-of-way and easements have been provided on the Tentative Map.
The City has reviewed these easements and has found no potential conflicts.
