The use is also consistent with the remaining elements of the City's General Plan as the policies of those elements are consistent with, and reflected in, the Land Use Element. Accordingly, the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan. (b) The building and property at 901 - 1101 Pacific Coast Highway are adequate in size, shape, topography and location to meet the needs of the proposed use of the property.
