be consistent with MHCSD adopted plans and programs (e.g., MHCSD Design Manual and MHCSD Roadway Landscape Plans). 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. This finding can be made because the sites are physically suitable to accommodate the proposed residential and open space uses.This analysis is based on the improvements proposed; the assessment of the hydrology and water quality of the site. 4. The sites are physically suitable for the proposed density of development. This finding can be made because the area proposed for development is adequate in size to accommodate the density of development,.consistent with the Master Plan (as amended for the project)Specific Plan III and Development Title, as amended. 5. Neither the design of the subdivision nor any proposed improvements is 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,would be required to comply with applicable Federal and State laws for the protection of fish or wildlife or their habitat(e.g.,Section 401 of the Clean Water Act; Section 404 of the Clean Water Act; Federal and State Endangered Species Acts),and because the applicants would participate in the San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP). The proposed subdivision would also be subject to the Mountain House community monitoring and mitigation monitoring programs. 6. The design of the subdivision and the types of improvements are not likely to cause significant public health problems. This finding can be made because the design of the subdivisions, as conditioned, would either have no impact or less than significant impact on the health of future residents(as is more fully described in Section 4.9 of the Specific Plan III EIR). A sound wall along De Anza Boulevard is included to reduce the impact of traffic on adjacent residences. The habitable areas of residential dwellings are required to be set back a minimum of 25 feet from the PG&E Rio Oso-Tesla power line easement. Finally, conditions are attached that require interim buffers from any on-going agricultural operations. x 7. The design of the subdivision and the types of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. This finding can be made because there are no existing public easements acquired by the public at large that will be negatively affected by the subdivision. Public access to the linear park,which includes land within the 230 kV PG&E transmission line easement,would be provided via connections to the linear park's multi-use trail located on the west side of De Anza Boulevard (the terminus of the linear park),the southeastern side of Hydrangea Glen(the local residential street bordering the proposed development on the north),the north and south sides of Teixeira Avenue, and the east side of Prosperity Street. (Note: Any improvements built within the 230 kV PG&E transmission line easement would need to be approved by PG&E.) Other public access easements have been incorporated into the design of the proposed 30
