nM No,. 3 <br /> - 3 �r <br /> On Dr;cemb,�,r 14, 1982. the Board of Supervisors cen �{'2 R3_` <br /> t-'or 'his project. EIR-81--,7 was prepared for hi5�,, .�-Ao : �f t aid'. w;� . <br /> cF-ir-r _f .-d as adequate to cover the project ' s impact <br /> This >rt3';r c will create 32 lots, ranging in ' row 1_�? to 3 acres, <br /> Most of {-h.e lots contain about 15 aures. All the lnt s laould hay-,, <br /> i a on trontag a public road. In addition, the <br /> P <br /> r�que._,t:rian tra is for the use of the landowners. The will <br /> have to provide names for the proposed public roads., <br /> Two bx*inches of Bear Creek flow through this property- These streams <br /> si3bject the property to a definite but determined flood hazard, as the <br /> Cora.: of Engineers did not study this area by the precise irethod. It <br /> wi:-1 be difficult for the engineer to calculate the e.-tent of 100 year <br /> tloodi.ng because the stream splits into two branches upstream o—f' the <br /> site, <br /> Staff has requested a flood hazard report from the Corps of Fng:i.neerS <br /> :out, the Corps has not yet responded. The engineers ma,, h^ ural,-tae to <br /> cn�lci,Aate the 100 year flood area; they may be able to s determine safe <br /> areas because all of the proposed lots have areas at over 1301 elevation. <br /> This is 10' above the approximate flood elevation whic'1, the engineer <br /> shows on the Tentative Map. ' Rather than slow the hazard area, the Final <br /> i�lap should show the area safe for buildings. <br /> The area has rolling topography, and a variety of soils. The proposed <br /> Parcels are smaller than necessary for economic agricults.ir.a.'- Z.i,ses. <br /> The project will, therefore, remove 532 acres of farmland from product_-01n. <br /> The decision-making body will have to weigh this against the creation <br /> of 32 residential building sites. <br /> Groundwater is available and the lots are large enough to provide <br /> adequate leach fields for septic tanks. When the Board of Supervisors <br /> approved the Environmental Impact* Report for U-81-5, it found five <br /> environmental impacts to be significant and adopted the attached <br /> Statement of Overriding Considerations. <br /> FINDINGS <br /> ' 3 <br /> A. The project is consistent with the General Plan. <br /> I <br /> The Board of Supervisors determined ghat GA-10 zoning is consistent <br /> with the General Plan in this area. <br /> B. The project 's adverse effects on the environment are justified by <br /> overriding considerations as detailed above. <br /> } <br /> i <br /> w <br /> w <br />
