WHEREAS, the South San Francisco Planning Commission held duly noticed public hearings on March 7, 2002 and April 4, 2002; and, WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after hearing testimony and reviewing evidence related to the proposed General Plan Amendment, recommended that the City Council approve General Plan Amendment 01-006 by a 6-1 vote; and, WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of South San Francisco held a duly noticed public hearing on April 24, 2002, to hear testimony and review written materials that analyze the effect of the proposed General Plan Amendment; and, WHEREAS, the City Council has independently reviewed the General Plan, as adopted and amended on October 13, 1999, the East of 101 Area Plan and other written materials including staff reports and the minutes of the March 7, 2002 and April 4, 2002 public hearings of the Planning Commission; and, WHEREAS, based on the testimony and materials received at the April 24, 2002, duly noticed public hearing, the City Council hereby makes the following findings in support of the request for approval of a General Plan Amendment to modify policy 4.2-I-2, and amend the Land Use Diagram to delete the proposed East Grand Avenue Extension to Point San Bruno Boulevard: An Environmental Impact Report was prepared for the project which fully analyzed potential environmental impacts. The EIR finds that deletion of the proposed roadway extension would not have a significant impact on the environment so long as an emergency access road to the northeast coruer of the Project site is provided where it may be connected to Point San Bruno Boulevard and the Genentech research and development campus, as identified in the project plans. o Deletion of the public roadway, in favor of an emergency access road would allow the project to be developed as a more unified campus, in support of General Plan Policy 3.5-G-3 and East of 101 Area Plan Policy LU-16, by retaining a smaller appropriate scale to the circulation system while consistent with the needs of the area. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council hereby approves GP-01-006 as outlined in Exhibit A. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption. I hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was regularly introduced and adopted by the City Council of the City of South San Francisco at a regular meeting held on the 24th day of April 2002 by the following vote: AYES: Councilmembers Raymond L.
