FINDINGS OF FACT FINDINGS OF FACT fceqa) The Environmental Review Section of the Planning Department issued on 04/26/06, the proposed project Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ENV MND. The Advisory Agency certifies that Mitigated Negative Declaration No. ENV MND, reflects the independent judgment of the lead agency, and determined this project, when mitigated, would not have a significant effect upon the environment. The Department found that potential impacts could result from: Aesthetics (landscaping, light); Air Quality (construction, operational); Biology (tree removal); Geology (Seismic, construction); Public Services (fire, schools); Recreation (parks); Hydrology/Water Quality; The Advisory Agency, to mitigate the above impacts, required Condition Nos. 7g, 10,11, and 12, as conditions of approval for the Parcel Map and determined the project would not have a significant impact upon the environment. Other identified potential impacts not mitigated by these conditions are subject to existing City ordinances (Sewer Ordinance, Grading Ordinance, Flood Plain Management Specific Plan, Xeriscape Ordinance, Stormwater Ordinance, etc.) Which are specifically intended to mitigate such impacts on all projects.

14 PAGE 10 FINDINGS OF FACT (SUBDIVISION MAP ACT) (a) THE REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS ARE NECESSARY FOR REASONS OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY AND ARE A NECESSARY PREREQUISITE TO THE ORDERLY DEVELOPMENT OF THE SURROUNDING AREA AND NEIGHBORHOOD. The proposed project is consistent with the surrounding lot widths, lot areas, densities and single-family residential uses. The adjacent properties are also improved with developments of equivalent or greater density. The proposed development is immediately adjacent on two sides to public streets, which will allow for ample access and setbacks such that residential surrounding uses will not be negatively impacted. (b) PROPOSED MAP IS CONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE GENERAL AND SPECIFIC PLANS. The adopted Chatsworth-Porter Ranch Community Plan designates the subject property for Very Low I Residential density with corresponding zones of RA-1. The 1.12 acre property is zoned RA-1. The adopted Plan zone allows for the proposed subdivision. The proposed map conforms to the policies of the Residential Land Use section of the Chatsworth-Porter Ranch Community Plan. (c) THE DESIGN AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION ARE CONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE GENERAL AND SPECIFIC PLANS. The subject property is a sloping, rectangular-shaped, interior, parcel of land with a frontage of 76 feet on the east side of Baden Avenue and a 54-foot frontage at the end of Kentland Avenue. Surrounding properties are one-story, single-family dwellings in the RA-1 zone. (d) THE SITE IS PHYSICALLY SUITABLE FOR THE PROPOSED TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT. There is one existing single family home on the property. The newly created parcel will allow for an additional single family home to be built. The surrounding properties are all single family homes, thus the new development is physically suitable. The project is an appropriate existing development that is consistent with the abutting single-family residential homes and the RA-1 Zone and the

15 PAGE 11 Very Low I Residential density land use designation in the Chatsworth-Porter Ranch Community Plan. The site is relatively level and is not located in a slope stability study area, high erosion hazard area, or a fault-rupture study zone. (e) THE SITE IS PHYSICALLY SUITABLE FOR THE PROPOSED DENSITY OF DEVELOPMENT. The surrounding properties are all single family homes in the RA-1 Zone and the Very Low I Residential density land use designation in the Chatsworth-Porter Ranch Community Plan. Therefore the density of the subdivision is generally consistent with the RA-1 zone and with that of adjoining single family residential developments. The site is currently built with a single family dwelling and is abutting single family homes. The project is an appropriate development that is consistent with the surrounding uses, the RA-1 zones and the Very Low I Residential density land use designations in the Chatsworth-Porter Ranch Community Plan. The RA-1 zone permits. The project proposes RA-1. Therefore the density of the subdivision is generally consistent with RA-1 zones and with that of adjoining single and multi family residential developments. (f) THE DESIGN OF THE SUBDIVISION AND THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS ARE NOT LIKELY TO CAUSE SUBSTANTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE OR SUBSTANTIALLY AND AVOIDABLY INJURE FISH OR WILDLIFE OR THEIR HABITAT. The Initial Study prepared for the project identifies potential adverse impact on fish or wildlife resources as far as earth, air, water, plant life and animal life are concerned. However, measures are required as part of this approval which shall mitigate the above mentioned impacts to a less than significant level. Furthermore, the project site is presently developed with a residential structure and does not provide a natural habitat for either fish or wildlife. (9) THE DESIGN OF THE SUBDIVISION AND THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS ARE NOT LIKELY TO CAUSE SERIOUS PUBLIC HEALTH PROBLEMS. There are no apparent health problems that might be caused by the design of the proposed subdivision. The Bureau of Engineering has conditioned that sanitary sewer is required for all parcels. This development will be connected to the City of

16 AA PM LA PAGE 12 Los Angeles sewer system, and the sewage will be directed to an LA Treatment Plant, which has been upgraded to meet Statewide ocean discharge standards. (h) THE DESIGN OF THE SUBDIVISION AND THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS WILL NOT CONFLICT WITH EASEMENTS ACQUIRED BY THE PUBLIC AT LARGE FOR ACCESS THROUGH OR USE OF PROPERTY WITHIN THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION. No such easements are known to exist. However, needed public access for roads and utilities will be acquired by the City prior to recordation of the proposed Parcel Map. THE FOLLOWING NOTES ARE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES AND ARE NOT CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL OF THIS PARCEL MAP: Satisfactory arrangements shall be made with the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, Power System, to pay for removal, relocation, replacement or adjustment of power facilities due to this development. The subdivider must make arrangements for the underground installation of all new utility lines in conformance with Section 17.05N of the Los Angeles Municipal Code. As part of the construction of your project, you may wish to make arrangements, with the Telecommunications Bureau, located at 200 N. Main Street Room 1255, regarding the cable television franchise holder for this area, or by calling (213) The above action shall become effective upon the decision date noted at the top of this letter unless an appeal has been submitted to the North Valley Area Planning Commission within 15 calendar days of the decision date.
