of a Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance and approval of the Preliminary
Development Plan - Rezoning request PUD 97-01 per the conditions contained herein; and
makes the following findings in support of this action:

and, be it further
RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the Town of Danville recommends the
approval of the Final Development Plan - Major Subdivision request SD 8047 per the
conditions contained herein; and makes the following findings in support of this action:
The proposed subdivision is in substantial conformance with the goals and policies of
the General Plan.
The design of the proposed subdivision is in substantial conformance with the
applicable zoning regulations.
The design of the subdivision and the type of associated improvements will not likely
cause serious public health problems because water and sanitary facilities services will
be available to the 13 new parcels.
The density of the subdivision is physically suitable for the proposed density of
development.
The design of the proposed subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or subsequently injure fish or wildlife or their
habitat since this property is in an area where residential development has previously
occurred.
PAGE 2 OF RESOLUTION NO. 97-24
The design of the proposed subdivision and proposed improvements will not conflict
with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property
within the proposed subdivision.
