IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN LEANDRO RESOLUTION NO. 2007 - RESOLUTION APPROVING FINDINGS FOR VESTING TENTATIVE MAP TRACT 7917 PLN2007-00036 15101 WASHINGTON AVENUE ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 80H-1515-008-02 Findings The City Council of the City of San Leandro finds that the proposed map, together with the provisions for its design and improvements, are as follows: A. The proposed map will be consistent with the General Plan in that it provides for a high density residential use project within a site that has been designated in the General Plan as High Density Residential. In addition, goals of the Housing Element are fulfilled as the project will provide four for-sale affordable homes. The City Engineer has determined that Tentative Map 7917 is consistent with the City's Subdivision Ordinance. B. The design and improvements of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the General Plan in that it includes an orderly division of parcels which are adequately served by streets and with drainage for the mixed-use development. C. The site is physically suitable for residential development in that it is relatively flat, and there are no known problems regarding cultural, historical or scenic aspects. D. The proposed density of development of approximately one dwelling unit per 2,160 square feet (20units/acre) will be compatible with adjacent existing high-density multi-family development to the south and low density residential development to the west. E. The design of the subdivision or proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. F. Several agencies, including Alameda Flood Public Works have been involved in reviewing the development project and have determined, with implementation of adopted mitigation measures (approved with project), no significant impacts are anticipated. G. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. A multi-family residential use project of this size will not involve significant amounts of hazardous materials or products.
