That the proposed use will comply with the provisions of this code; including any specific condition required for the proposed use, in the district, in which it would be located. The RS(PD) Single Family Planned Development Overlay District designation allows for a Planned Development application. The project complies with the provisions of the Zoning Code because the Planned Development project complies with the intent and purpose of the underlying land use and development provisions required under the RS Residential Single-Family zoning code. The project meets the overall community density and land use goals. The Planned Development project appropriately accommodates the unit density and setbacks by providing a project that incorporates high quality urban design while maximizing the amount of housing in the area. The Planned Development allows for the creation of a small lot single family development which would otherwise not be achievable. The project contributes to the City’s market rate and affordable housing needs by providing 18 residential dwelling units and does not contribute to a net loss of housing units. 4. That the proposed use will not create adverse impacts on traffic or create demands exceeding the capacity of public services and facilities, which cannot be mitigated.
