cost of mitigating impacts on existing facilities, infrastructure and the environment. 2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan, the Master Plan, any applicable Specific Plan and any applicable Special Purpose Plan. Fj This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that the design or improvements of the proposed subdivision,as shown on the Tentative Map, meets the requirements of the General Plan, Master Plan,and Specific Plan III. The design of the proposed subdivision provides additional housing opportunities for future residents. It meets the residential density requirements of adopted plans. It incorporates a coordinated system of auto, pedestrian,and bicycle facilities that provide efficient access within the project I and to commercial and public destinations(e.g., K-8 school,commercial sites). It t creates a distinctive and livable residential environment within the project. Concerning design,all landscape, hardscape and street elements within the proposed subdivision will be designed and constructed in accordance with the adopted community approvals regarding specific themes and material variation. 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that the site is physically suitable to accommodate the uses proposed. This analysis is based on the improvements proposed; the assessment of the hydrology and ' water quality of the site;and the required remediation/correction of identified hazardous materials on the site. F, 4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development. F, • This finding can be made since the analysis conducted by CDD has found that the area proposed for development is adequate in size to accommodate the Fi density of development proposed, consistent with the Master Plan and Specific Plan Ill. F! 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 k be required to comply with applicable Federal and State laws for the protection of 1 fish or wildlife or their habitat, and because the applicant will comply with the San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJCMSCP). In addition,the developer will be required to prepare a Wetland Mitigation/Replacement Plan(Wetland Plan)and a Riparian Habitat Mitigation Plan (Habitat Plan) to offset the proposed elimination of the riparian habitat and wetland on the project site. The Wetland Plan would be subject to a number of provisions, including the requirement that the lost wetland be replaced with 1.5 acres of new wetland or, if a wetland delineation report is prepared,be replaced at a minimum ratio of 1.1. If feasible,replacement wetland would occur within the Mountain House Creek Restoration Plan; if not feasible,replacement wetland would occur elsewhere in San Joaquin County.The Habitat Plan would indicate sites that are to be developed or preserved to serve as offset for loss of riparian habitat as a result of the proposed project. To the extent practical,replacement sites would be located in San Joaquin County and would assist in the I 5
