The Zoning Administrator finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the
environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to section 15315 of the CEQA Guidelines, because the division of properties zoned for
residential use into four or fewer parcels is exempt from CEQA.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO.98-238:
1. Tentative Parcel Map No. 98-238 to create two (2) 33.75-foot by 125-foot lots from three (3)
existing lots is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element designation of Medium High
Density Residential on the subject property and any other applicable provisions of the code
including lot width and size.
2. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development. The site is within a
residential area and will be eliminating an unusable lot by consolidating it with two lots, which

problems or substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat. The subject parcel is located in the middle of a highly urbanized area and

new lots from three (3) existing lots and subsequent development of two (2) single family homes
will have no adverse impacts on any fish or wildlife or their habitat.
4. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements,
acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed
subdivision unless alternative easements, for access or for use, will be provided. The property
owner will be required to dedicate 2.5 feet for alley purposes and a 15-foot radius at the corner of

current access to other properties.
