cost of mitigating impacts 6n existing facilities,infrastructure and the <br /> environment: ` <br /> 2. The design or improvernent of the proposed subdivision,is-consistent-with the,General Plan, <br /> the Masker Plan;any applicable Specific Plan and any applicable Special�Purpose Plan. <br /> • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that <br /> the design or improvements of the proposed subdw�sion,ass` hown on the <br /> Tentative Map,meets the requ'jremZts'of the Genera,.Plan, Master-Plan,.and <br /> Specific Pian Ill. The design of the proposed su'bdiv'ision provides additional <br /> housing opportunities for future residents.,.It meets.the residential density <br /> requirements of adopted plans: it'incorporates a coordjnated system of auto, <br /> pedestrian,and bicycle facilities that provide efficient access within the project <br /> and to commercial and public destinations(e.g., K-8 school,`commercial sites). It <br /> creates a distinctive and livable residential environment within the;project.. <br /> Concerning design,ail landscape, hardscape and street etements.wi#hin the <br /> I proposed subdivision will be'designed and constructed:in accordance with the <br /> adopted community approvals regarding specific themes.and material variation. <br /> 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. <br /> • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that <br /> the site is physically suitable to accommodate the uses proposed. This analysis <br /> is based on the improvements proposed; the assessment of the hydrology and <br /> water quality of the site; and the required remediationicorrection of identified <br /> hazardous materials on the site. <br /> a. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development. <br /> • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that <br /> the area proposed for development is adequate in size to accommodate the <br /> density of development proposed,consistent with the Master Plan and Specific <br /> Plan ill. <br /> 5. Neither the design of the subdivision nor any proposed improvements are likely to cause <br /> substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or <br /> their habitat. <br /> • This finding can be made because the proposed subdivision,as conditioned,will <br /> be required to comply with applicable Federal and State laws€or the protection of <br /> fish or wildlife or their habitat,and because the applicant will comply with the San <br /> Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan <br /> k (SJCMSCP). In addition,the developer will be required to prepare a Wetland <br /> MitigationlReplacement Plan(Wetiand Plan)and a Riparian Habitat Mitigation <br /> Plan (Habitat Plan) to offset the proposed elimination of the riparian habitat and <br /> wetland on the project site. The Wetland Plan would be subject to a number of <br /> provisions, including the requirement that the lost wetland be replaced with 1.5 <br /> acres of new wetland or, if a wetland delineation report is prepared,be replaced <br /> at a minimum ratio of 1:1. If feasible,replacement wetland would occur within the <br /> Mountain House Creek Restoration Plan; if not feasible, replacement wetland <br /> would occur elsewhere in San Joaquin County.The Habitat Plan would indicate <br /> sites that are to be developed or preserved to serve as offset for loss of riparian <br /> habitat as a result of the proposed project. To the extent practical,replacement <br /> sites would be located in San Joaquin County and would assist in the <br /> f� <br /> I 5 <br />
