Furthermore, there have been no substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which these minor modifications would be undertaken that would require major revisions of the Adopted Mitigation Negative Declaration due to new or substantially increased significant environmental effects, and there has been no discovery of new information of substantial importance that would trigger or require major revisions to the Mitigated Negative Declaration due to new or substantially increased significant environmental effects. WHEREAS, the adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration adequately identifies all environmental effects and adequate mitigation measures for the proposed modifications to the previously approved project. Therefore, no subsequent or supplemental Mitigated Negative Declaration is required prior to approval of the proposed project. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to this application: a. That the proposed subdivision map is consistent with the City of Cupertino General Plan. The subject property is consistent with the General Plan since the property is permitted to have up to 35 dwelling units an acre and the project qualifies for a density bonus. The proposed development is consistent with the intent of the policies of the General Plan for a high density mixed-use development on this site. b. That the design and improvements of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the General Plan. The off-site improvements are consistent with the City's General Plan policies related to pedestrian and bicycle safety etc. by improving Stevens Creek Boulevard, minimizing curb- cuts, and requiring an urban canopy within the public right-of-way. The project is also consistent with the General Plan's design requirements, since the project qualifies for waivers for height, side setback, and common open space. EXHIBIT TM c. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development contemplated under the approved subdivision. The proposed tentative map is compatible with the adjoining land uses and no physical constraints are present that would conflict with anticipated land use development. There are no topographical anomalies that differentiate this property from adjacent properties. The site is located on the valley floor, as well as not listed within any environmentally sensitive zone. d. That the site is physically suitable for the intensity of development contemplated under the approved subdivision. The subject property is physically suitable in size and shape in conformance to development standards and is appropriately configured to accommodate a multi-unit mixed-used development. e. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their habitat. The design of the subdivision and proposed improvements are not likely to substantially injure fish and wildlife or their habitat because the property is a developed site and located in an urbanized area where residential land use is allowed. f. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements associated therewith are not likely to cause serious public health problems. The proposed subdivision design and improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems. The proposed development is consistent with the intent of the policies of the General Plan for a high density mixed-use development on this site, and the on-site and off-site improvements improve neighborhood walkability through improved sidewalk construction with size-appropriate driveway cuts and street and private trees planting. g. That the design of the subdivision and its associated improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. No easement or right-of-way exists currently that would be impeded or conflict with the proposed subdivision. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That after careful consideration of maps, facts, exhibits, testimony and other evidence submitted in this matter and the MND Addendum, subject to the conditions which are enumerated in this Resolution beginning on PAGE 4 thereof, and those contained in all other Resolutions approved for this Project EXHIBIT TM The application for a Vesting Tentative Map, Application No. TM-2022-003, is hereby approved, and that the subconclusions upon which the findings and conditions specified in this Resolution are based are contained in the Public Hearing record concerning Application No. TM-2022-003 as set forth in the Minutes of the City Council Meeting of December 6, 2022 Meeting, and are incorporated by reference as though fully set forth herein.
