or existence of certain easements; and
WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, investigation, and study made
by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered
at said hearing, does find snd determine the foilowing facts:
1. The majority of the southeriy half of the study area is presently being
developed as an industrial subdivision. A parcel map and street improvement plans have been
approved showing a street alignment in the approximate location shown Eor Portion A of the
street on the exhibits. The parcel adjacent ta Portion C of the illustrated street is pro-
posed to be developed in the very near future as an industrial subdivision with ~ street
alignment in the appr~ximate locaCion shown. Develapmenc plans for the parcel ad~acent to
Portion B are unknown.
2. Examination of the scudy area and traffic projeckions conducted by the City
Traffic Engineer, based on future industrial uses, indicated a vital need for a street
connecting La Palma Avenue to Micaloma Avenue through the study area; and the primary reason
For arriving at this conclusion is the need to reli.eve as much as possible the congestion
oi arterial highway intersections.
3. IIased on the acreage and projected land uselnvolved, the Tr.a£fic Engineer
indicated that the traffic volume on a new street oetween La Palma and Miraloma Avenues
would reach between 4,500 to 5,000 trips per day; and, further, that "the provisions of e
street thrQUgh this area wou'id enable an interreiation between the industria'1 tracts and
would bal&nce the traffic loads between La Ralma an~ Miraloma Avenues. The connection
would reduce the distance traveled to serve borh areas; would eliminate long, undesirable
cul-de-ssc streets. Where possible, it is desirable. to preclude the need to travel on
arterial streets to serve adjacent parcels."
4. That the Planning Commission considered three (3) separate plaiis or
exhibits, known eS "Exhibit A:', "Exhibit B" elid ~~EXhibit C.~~
5. That "Exhibit C" was determined Co be the best plan as it related to the
layout of the parcels within the Study Area.

7. That the City Engineer and the PuUlic Works Director ir.dicated; based on the
need to relieve the ttaffic congestion in the Study Area and also based on the needs of the
property owners invoived, the street width shown on said "Exhibit C" should be modified from
98-foot width to 64-foot width, and that it would not be unreosonable for the City to instai:.
