intu 8 lots.
(b) Applicant is proposing to subdivide the property in accordance
with the CUlTent provisions of the Subdivision Map Act, the Seal Beach Generall'lan, and
the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Seal Beach.
(c) The proposed project is eonsi~tent with tJle Land Use Element of
the City of Seal Beach General Plan. The adopted "Land Use Element" map was revised
by City Couneil Resolution No. 4672 on December 14, 1998 relative to thc subject
project. This Illap indicates the subject property to be located in a medium density
residcntialland use classification.
I-

of the City of Seal Beach, which indicates the subject property is wned Residential
Medium Density, RMD, and is in conformance with thc Land Use Element uf the
Gcnerall'lan. The approved "Zoning" map was revised by City Council Ordinance No.

(c) Tcntative Tract Map 15832 will create the requested land
subdivision. A summary of the proposcd land subdivision is provided below:
1
IJ 8 lots, with a minimum lot size of 2,635 square feet, and a maximum lot size of
3,029 square feet (minimum lot size of 2,500 square feet permitted in the Residential
Medium Density (RMD) Zone), with the following parcel breakdown:
IJ Parcel 1- 2,749 square feet, 27.18 fcet offiuntage
IJ Parccl2 - 2,961 square feet, 29.00 feet of frontage

IJ Parcel 6 - 2,635 squarc feet, 26.00 feet of frontage
IJ Parcel 7 - 2,934 square fect, 29.00 feet of frontage
IJ Parcel 8 - 3,029 square feet, 30.00 feet of frontage.
(1) Subsequent to the adoption of Negative Declaration 98-3,
groundwater contamination originating from an adjoining property has caused groundwater
contamination on the subject property. The Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control
Board ("Santa Ana RWQCB") has been supervising and monitoring the appropriate on-site
and off-sitc remediation activities and plans. On September 19, 2000, the Santa Ana
RWQCB issued a letter indicating no fulther investigation or remediation is required for
Lots #1 through #7 of Tract Map 15832, and that minor contamination is restricted to Lot #8
of Tract Map 15832. The City has prepared, and the City Council has reviewed, an
"Addendum to Negative Declaration 98-3" that sets forth these minor additions to Negative
Declaration 98-3.
I
(g) As conditioned, new construction activities cannot occur on Lot #8
of the subject tentative tract map, including grading, until an additional clearance letter is
received by the City of Seal Beach pertaining to Lot 8, still under the review and authority
ofthe Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Section 6. Based upon substantial evidence in the record of the
hearing, including the facts stated in ~ 5 of this resolution, and in the environmental
documentation prepared in conjunction with this project, and pursuant to ~~ 28-2600 and
28-2602 of the City's Code, the City Council hereby finds:
I. Tentative Tract Map 15832 is consistent with the General Plan in that the map would
allow thc subdivision of existing property in accordance with the provisions of the
General Plan for future medium density residential land uses in accordance with the
present General Plan Land Use Elcment designation of "Medium Density
Residential".
2. Tentative Tract Map 15832 is consistent with the Land Use E;lement of the City of
Seal Beach General Plan. The adopted "Land Use Element" map was revised by City
Council Resolution No. 4672 on December 14, 1998 relative to the subject project.
This map indicates the subject property to be located in a medium density residential
land use classification.
I
3. Tentative Tract Map No. 15832 conforms with all requirements of Government Code ~~
66473, 66473.5, 66474 and 66474.6.
4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed land subdivision, exceeding the
minimum lot size standards of the City for the "Residential Medium Density" zone
and future development will be consistent with the development standards of the
Residential Medium Density Zone. Negative Declaration 98-3 evaluated the potential
development of the subject area with a maximum of 9 single-family residences, and
Resolution Number!/JJLo
detennined that all significant project impacts of this project were reduced to a level
less than significant.
5. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development and is
consistent with the development standards of the Residential Medium Density (RMD)
Zone.
6. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage.
The City Council adopted Negative Declaration 98-3 on December 14, 1998. Negative
Declaration 98-3 evaluated the environmental impacts of the necessary General Plan
Amendments and Zone Change to allow construction of 8 single family homes that
would be constructed upon approval of the requested Tract Map. In adopting Negative
Declaration 98-3, the City Council found in Section 6(b) of City Council Resolution No.
4671 that "There is no substantial evidence in the record, which would support a fair
argument that approval of the applieations, with requircd mitigation measures, might
have a significant environmental impact". Additionally, the City has prcpared an
"Addendum to Negative Declaration 98-3" setting forth minor additions to Negative
Declaration 98-3 consisting of the subsequent discovery of groundwater
contamination on the subject property (originating from an adjoining property) that
has been remediated to the satisfaction of the Santa Ana Rcgional Water Quality
Control Board. As conditioned, the project approval will have no substantial adverse
impacts upon groundwater.
I
7. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause scrious public health problems
because all necessary utilities and services are available to serve the project.
8. The design of the subdivision will not connict with casements acquired by the public
at large for access through, or use of, property within the proposed subdivision
because all easements will be adequately preserved, maintained and/or abandoned
with new easements created.
I
9. The discharge of water from the subdivision into the existing community sewer
system will not violate existing requirements prescribed by the local regional water
quality control board.
10. Pursuant to Section 15074 of tile CEQA Guidelines, a Negative Declaration has
previously becn adopted by the City Council regarding the implementing General
Plan Amendments and Zone Changes necessary for this land subdivision request to be
considered. Additionally, the City has prepared an "Addendum to Negative
Dcclaration 98-3" sclling forth minor additions to Negativc Declaration 98-3
consisting of the subsequcnt discovery of growldwater contamination on the subject
propcrty (originating from an adjoining property) that has been remediated to the
satisfaction of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board. This subdivision
is within the scope of Negative Declaration 98-3, as supplemented by its Addendum,
which together adequately dcscribc the gencral environmental setting of the project,
its environmental impacts, and detennine that all significant projcct impacts of this
project are reduced to a level less than significant. Thcrefore, no additional
environmental documentation beyond the Addendum to Negative Declaration 98-3 is
necded. As conditioned, the project approval will have no substantial adverse impacts
upon groundwater.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of
Seal Beach does hereby approve adopt the Addcndum to Negative Declaration 98-3, and
Tentative Tract Map 15832, subject to the attached conditions shown as "Exhibit A".
