3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by County staff has found that the site is physically suitable to accommodate;ne residential,commercial,industrial, and institutional land uses proposed. This analysis is based on the improvements proposed(i.e.,storm drainage facilities;interim storm protection facilities;interim discharge facilities;relocation,removal,or abandonmentof canals,ditches,and water conveyance pipelines;reuse of existing pipelines);the assessmentof hazards within or in proximity to the site(i.e., pipelines,abandoned gas wells,etc.)and the required compliance with all recommendations of the Condor Environmental site assessment submitted with the proposed project;the assessmentof the geology and soils of the site (i.e.,the Geotechnical Engineering Study for Neighborhood"F'); the assessmentof the hydrology and water quality of the site and the required implementation of conditions HYDRO-1, HYDRO-3, HYDRO-6,and HYDRO-8 of the Mountain House Neighborhood "F"Project Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration,SCH#90020776; the lack of potential,significant impact to biological resources within the site(i.e.,the absence of important nesting or denning activity on or in the immediate vicinity of the site reported during recent surveys;the absence of special status plant populations or essential habitat for special status animal species reported during recent surveys;the absence of jurisdictional wetlands;the expectation that developmentof the site would not interfere substantially with the movement of wildlife or impede the use of any native wildlife nursery areas);and the mitigation measures that will be implemented to reduce potentially significant impacts to less than significant levels(i.e.participation in the SJMSCP[or, alternatively,the HMP]; TIMF, TDM, CMP participation).See the detailed consistency findings for the General Plan, Master Plan,Specific Plan I, and the Neighborhood"F"Special Purpose Plan in Appendices 1 through 4. Refer also to the Supplemental Findings attached to the staff report. 4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development. • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by County staff has found that the site is relatively flat, regularly shared,and adequate in size to accommodate the density of development proposed consistent with the Master Plan, Specific Plan I, and the Special Purpose Plan for Neighborhood"F."See the detailed consistency findings for the General Plan, Master Plan, Specific Plan I, and the Neighborhood"F"Special Purpose Plan in Appendices 1 through 4. Refer also to the Supplemental Findings attached to the staff report. 5. Neither the design of the subdivision nor any proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. • This finding can be made because the proposed subdivision,as conditioned,will be required to comply with the laws of U.S. Fish and Wildlife and/or the State of California Department of Fish and Game,and the SJMSVP(or,alternatively,the HMP). The proposed subdivision will also be subject to the MasterPlan and Specific Plan I Mitigation Monitoring Program and to the Mountain House Neighborhood"F"Project Mitigation Monitoring Plan(see Appendix 7 and Appendix 6). Refer also to the Supplemental Findings attached to the staff report. 6. The design of the subdivision or type of improvement is not likely to cause significant public health problems. -28-
