C. An appeal of the decision of the Downey Planning Commission was filed on December 3, 1999 by Frank A. Weiser on behalf of Mr. Arvin Pakekh, who is both the owner and operator of the Days Inn Stonewood motel, located at 11102 Lakewood Boulevard, Downey, California. D. The City Council held a duly - noticed public hearing on January 11, 2000, and, after fully considering all oral and written testimony and facts and opinions offered at the aforesaid public hearing adopted Resolution No. 0113denying the appeal and approving Tentative Parcel Map No. 25643. SECTION 2. Having considered all of the oral and written evidence presented to it as said public hearing, the City Council further finds, determines and declares that: A. Tentative Parcel Map No. 25643 is consistent with the General Plan and furthers its objectives and policies. Approval of the proposed map involves assembling a lot that is more in conformance with the provisions of the Lakewood/Firestone Specific Plan No. 91 -2 and the specific plan is consistent the Project Site's General Commercial General Plan category, per Sections 65454 and 65455 of the California Government Code. B. The design and improvements of the tentative map are consistent with General Plan and furthers its objectives and policies. The consolidated property is designated General Commercial, according to the General Plan's Land Use Chapter and the site's intended shape will implement the Chapter's land use parameters, since its area will be more than adequate Resolution No. 6 318 Tentative Parcel Map 25643 Page 2 in size to accommodate the proposed improvements that are planned for the site. 1 C. The Project Site is physically suitable for the proposed subdivision and planned development since no geologic hazards are known to exist onsite. Further, infrastructure, fire protection and water supply improvements are readily available and will be provided to prepare the site for the planned development. D. The Project Site is physically suitable for the planned development, since the project petitioner proposes to assemble a lot of sufficient size with appropriate infrastructure improvements to support the types of uses that the Lakewood/Firestone specific plan normally permits. E. The design of the proposed subdivision and its proposed improvements will not cause public health problems since the proposed map will bring the site doser into conformance to the minimum area requirement of the Lakewood /Firestone Specific Plan and furthers its objectives and policies. F. The proposed subdivision's design and improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems, since the consolidated lot is of sufficient size and the planned improvements are not of the type to create public health problems. Further, a mitigated negative declaration has been prepared, which indicates that by implementing the environmental document's recommended mitigation measures, which the project applicant has agreed to do, project implementation will not create any significant adverse effects. G. The design of the proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use the property within the proposed subdivision, since such easements have been noted on the tentative map or made a condition of approval. H. In taking this action, the City Council has considered the effects of the decision on housing needs of the region in which the City is located and balanced those needs against the pubic service needs of city residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. The design of the lot and configuration of this subdivision provides for passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities, since the proposed lot is large enough to permit orientation of buildings to take advantage of such opportunities. J. The conditions imposed on the Subject Property by this action as described in Exhibit A, are necessary to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the community and enable the City Council to make the findings set forth in this section. The conditions are fair and reasonable for the accomplishment of these purposes.

This requirement ensures that environmental impacts found to be significant will be mitigated. The reporting or monitoring program must be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation (Public Resources Code Section 21081.6). In compliance with Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, the attached MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING CHECKLIST, has been prepared for the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Restaurant Project at 9066 Firestone Boulevard, This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Checklist is intended to provide verification that all applicable Conditions of Approval relative to significant environmental impacts are monitored and reported. Monitoring will include: 1) verification that each mitigation measure has been implemented; 2) recordation of the actions taken to implement each mitigation; and 3) retention of records in the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Restaurant project file. his Mitigation Monitoring Program delineates responsibilities for monitoring the project, but also allows he City of Downey flexibility and discretion in determining how best to monitor implementation. Monitoring procedures will vary according to the type of mitigation measure. Adequate monitoring consists of demonstrating that monitoring procedures took place and that mitigation measures were implemented. Reporting consists of establishing a record that a mitigation measure is being implemented, and generally involves the following steps: • The City of Downey distributes reporting forms to the appropriate agencies or City departments or employs the City's existing reporting process for verification of compliance. • Responsible entities verify compliance by signing the monitoring and reporting form and/or documenting compliance using their own internal procedures when monitoring is triggered. • Responsible parties provide the City of Downey with verification that monitoring has been conducted and ensure, as applicable, that mitigation measures have been implemented. Minor changes to the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, if required, would be made in accordance with CEQA and would be permitted after further review and approval by the City of Downey. Such changes could include reassignment of monitoring and reporting responsibilities and/or program redesign to snake any appropriate improvements. No change will be permitted unless the Mitigation monitoring and Reporting Program continues to satisfy the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 1081',6 o C V a C c.!.
