A. The information presented substantially complies with Costa Mesa
Municipal Code Section 13-29 (g)(5) in that the master plan meets the
broader goals of the General Plan, the North Costa Mesa Specific Plan, and
the Zoning Code by exhibiting excellence in design, site planning,
integration of uses and structures, and protection of the integrity of
neighboring development.
B. An initial study was prepared, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality
Act. Although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, according to the initial study and negative declaration, which
reflect the independent judgment of the City of Costa Mesa, there will not be a
significant effect on the environment because mitigation measures have been
added to the project.
C. The evidence presented in the record as a whole indicates that the project
will not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife
resources or habitat. The project will have a DeMinimis effect on fish and
wildlife, and no filing fee pursuant to Fish and Game Code Section 711.4 is
required.
D. The project is exempt from Chapter XII, Article 3 Transportation System
Management, of Title 13 of the Costa Mesa Municipal Code.
