WHEREAS, this Planning Commission, after due consideration, inspection, investigation

offered at said hearing pertaining to the request to approve Tentative Tract Map No. 18069, does

3. That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of the Proposed Project.
4. That the design of the subdivision, as shown on proposed Tentative Tract Map No.
18069, and with the conditions imposed, is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage

18069, and with the conditions imposed, or the type of improvements is not likely to cause
serious public health problems.

constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report

consideration of all evidence presented to it.

determinations, this Planning Commission does hereby approve Tentative Tract Map No. 18069,
