Recommendations <br /> Action <br /> It is recommended that the Planning Commission: <br /> 1. Approve the Negative Declaration; and <br /> 2. Approve Major Subdivision Application No. PA-0500055 with the Findings and Conditions of <br /> Approval contained in the staff report. <br /> Findings <br /> In order to approve the proposed Major Subdivision application, the Planning Commission must make the <br /> following Findings: (Development Title Section) <br /> 1. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan; any applicable Master Plan, <br /> Specific Plan, and Special Purpose Plan, and any other applicable plan adopted by the county. <br /> ■ This finding can be made because the R/M (Residential Medium Density) General Plan <br /> designation and R-M (Residential Medium Density) zone permit the subdivision as <br /> proposed. The project complies with the General Plan density requirements for the R/M <br /> designation (6 to 10 dwelling units/gross acre). There are no applicable Master Plans, <br /> Specific Plans, or Special Purpose Plans. <br /> 2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan and <br /> any applicable Specific Plan or Special Purpose Plan. <br /> ■ This finding can be made because the design and improvements of the proposed <br /> subdivision are consistent with the standards contained in the General Plan as reflected <br /> on the tentative map. Each parcel will be served by public wastewater treatment through <br /> the City of Stockton, public water service through California Water, and public storm <br /> water drainage through Reclamation District No. 1614. <br /> 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. <br /> ■ This finding can be made because the proposed parcels all satisfy the minimum lot <br /> size and width requirements for parcels in the R-M zone. The minimum lot size in the <br /> R-M zone is 6,000 square feet. The minimum lot width is 60 feet, however, the lot width <br /> of individual lots in a Major Subdivision may be reduced to seventy percent (70%) of <br /> the minimum lot width requirement in Table 9-310.3, provided the following conditions <br /> are met: (1) The average lot width for all lots in the proposed subdivision are equal to <br /> or greater than the minimum lot width requirement; (2) Individual corner lots widths <br /> are not less than 50 feet. (Development Title Section 9-310.4) <br /> 4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development. <br /> ■ This finding can be made because the tentative map is consistent with the General Plan <br /> density of 6 to 10 dwelling units per gross acre in the R/M General Plan designation. The <br /> minimum 6,000 square foot parcels are suitable for the proposed public sewer, water <br /> and storm water drainage provisions. <br /> San Joaquin County PA-0500055\Protestant Episcopal Bishop <br /> Community Development Page 5 <br />
