WHEREAS, the South San Francisco Planning Commission held duly noticed public
hearings on March 18, 1999, July 1, 1999 and July 15, 1999 and recommended denial of the
above requested actions; and
WHEREAS, the South San Francisco City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on
August 11, 1999 to consider the above requested actions.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco that, based upon all evidence in the record, including but not limited to the Staff
Report for the August 11, 1999 City Council meeting for the above requested actions, the City
Council hereby finds as follows:
The project, including the parcel map and the design improvements, is consistent with
the provisions of the provisions of the General Plan which support residential
development. Specifically, the project is consistent with the Housing element, which
supports the provision of additional market-rate and affordable housing. The
proposed density of 13.3 units per acre for the 0.30 acres to be developed is well
within the overall density of 15 units per acre allowed in the Medium Density land
use category proposed for the project site.
o
The requested exceptions to the general development standards for lot/size
dimensions and side yard setbacks are appropriate based on the following:
The resulting project will be a well designed neighborhood, with setbacks
and usable open space, meeting the general intent of the proposed
residential land use designation and zoning. Usable rear yards will be
provided on all lots, and subject to the conditions of approval.
The proposed "landscape enhancements" to the site adjacent to the comer
of Hillside Boulevard and North Spruce Avenue will benefit the
surrounding neighborhood and overall community.
3. The project site is physically suited for the proposed type and density of development.
The City Council reviewed the plans for the project and concluded that the construction
of four townhome units is appropriate for site because, as designed, it provides a
reasonable design and land use solution for a constrained site with adjacent commercial
and community uses.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco that the City Council hereby approves GPA -99-011, PUD- 99-011 and PM 99-011.
I hereby certify that the foregoing is a true copy of the resolution adopted by the City Council of
