FI <br /> Fjcost of mitigating impacts on existing facilities, infrastructure and the <br /> environment. <br /> 2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan, <br /> the Master Plan, any applicable Specific Plan and any applicable Special Purpose Plan. <br /> F <br /> • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that <br /> the design or improvements of the proposed subdivision,as shown on the <br /> Tentative Map, meets the requirements of the General Plan, Master Plan,and <br /> Specific Plan III. The design of the proposed subdivision provides additional <br /> housing opportunities for future residents. It meets the residential density <br /> requirements of adopted plans. It incorporates a coordinated 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 /> Fill creates a distinctive and livable residential environment within the project. <br /> Concerning design,all landscape, hardscape and street elements within the <br /> proposed subdivision will be designed and constructed in accordance with the <br /> F1 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 /> F! water quality of the site; and the required remediationicorrection of identified <br /> hazardous materials on the site. <br /> 4. 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 /> F1i 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 /> 1 I • This finding can be made because the proposed subdivision,as conditioned,will <br /> be required to comply with applicable Federal and State laws for the protection of <br /> fish or wildlife or their habitat,and because the applicant will comply with the San <br /> F1 Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan <br /> (SJCMSCP). In addition,the developer will be required to prepare a Wetland <br /> Mitigation/Replacement Plan(Wetland Plan)and a Riparian Habitat Mitigation <br /> Plan Habitat Plan to offset the proposed elimination of the riparian <br /> ( ) p phabitat 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 /> F! sites would be located in San Joaquin County and would assist in the <br /> F1 5 <br />
