PC-2022-685 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 2022-01 TO SUBDIVIDE AN APPROXIMATELY 41-ACRE LOT INTO TWO PARCELS, LOCATED AT 14370 WHITE SAGE ROAD, AND MAKING A DETERMINATION OF EXEMPTION PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, ON THE APPLICATION OF TANNER SHELTON ON BEHALF OF ENSIGN BICKFORD AEROSPACE & DEFENSE WHEREAS, on June 1, 2022, an application was filed for a Tentative Parcel Map (TPM) No. 2022-01, to subdivide an approximately 41-acre lot into two parcels, located at 14370 White Sage Road; and WHEREAS, at a duly noticed public hearing on November 22, 2022, for TPM No. 2022-01, the Planning Commission considered TPM No. 2022-01, including the agenda report and any supplements thereto and written public comments; opened the public hearing and took and considered public testimony both for and against the proposal; and WHEREAS, the Community Development Director has determined that TPM No. 2022-01 is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15315 (Class 15: Minor Land Divisions) of the CEQA Guidelines. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: The Planning Commission, based on its own independent analysis and judgment, concurs with the Community Development Director's determination that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the CEQA pursuant to Section 15315 (Class 15: Minor Land Divisions) of the CEQA Guidelines because the applicant is proposing a division of property that would result in the creation of two parcels, does not require a variance or exception, services and access to the proposed parcels would be required through any future planned development permits, the parcel was not involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous two years, and the initial parcel has an average slope of less than 20% at 10.98%. No further environmental documentation is required pursuant to CEQA. SECTION 2. TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP FINDINGS: Based upon the information set forth in the staff report(s), accompanying studies, and oral and written Ensign Bickford Aerospace & Defense Resolution No. PC-2022-685 Page 2 public testimony, the Planning Commission makes the following findings in accordance with City of Moorpark, Municipal Code Section 17.44.040: A. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the proposed map depicted in Exhibit B, including its design, is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance as proposed, and conditioned, in that the map has been designed to comply with the requirements of the City's General Plan in providing separate industrial parcels, including one for potential future development to encourage a diversity of industrial uses, and that the proposed lots comply with the applicable Municipal Code standards for lot size requirements in the limited industrial (M-2) zone. B. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the Project Site, as depicted in Exhibit B, is physically suitable for the type and intensity of development proposed in that there would be a future potential industrial development located at that site, which corresponds to the industrial zoning, but no development proposed with this subdivision on proposed Parcel 2. Additionally, proposed Parcel 1 contains an existing development that would not be altered, including access and setbacks, with the approval of this tentative parcel map. Therefore, as no development is proposed, the Project is consistent with this finding. C. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the design of the subdivision, as depicted in Exhibit B, would not conflict with easements acquired by the public at-large for access, including streets and trails, through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision because existing access easements will remain in place with the proposed tentative parcel map. D. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, as depicted in Exhibit B, are not likely to cause substantial environmental effects in that there are no proposed improvements with this subdivision and the proposed lot boundaries are zoned for industrial development. Proposed Parcel 1 includes an existing development and proposed Parcel 2 would available for future industrial development and subject to environmental review at that time depending on the proposal. E. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the design of the subdivision, as depicted in Exhibit B, is not likely to cause serious public health problems, in that adequate fire protection, water, sanitation and routine waste management exist to serve the existing development on proposed Parcel 1 and there is no development proposed on Parcel 2 that would alter existing conditions of the site. F. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, there would be no discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision, as depicted in Exhibit B, into an Ensign Bickford Aerospace & Defense Resolution No. PC-2022-685 Page 3 existing community sewer system in a manner that violates existing water quality control requirements pursuant to Water Code Section 13000 et seq in that the site on proposed Parcel 1 has already been developed, and there is no proposed development on Parcel 2. G. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, adequate water supplies exist to meet existing demands, anticipated demands from approved projects and tentative maps, and the anticipated demands of the proposed Project, as depicted in Exhibit B, in that Parcel 1 includes an existing development with existing water service that would have been analyzed previously, and that there is no proposed development on Parcel 2 with this proposed subdivision. Any future development would be subject to the California Environmental Quality Act standards at the time of review. H. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the proposed map, as depicted in Exhibit B, is consistent with regulations adopted by the State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection pursuant to Sections 4290 and 4291 of the Public Resources Code and with the requirements of the Ventura County Fire Protection District Ordinance regulating fire land life safety for new developments, in that that the development on proposed Parcel 1 is existing and there is no proposed development on Parcel 2. The Ventura County Fire Protection District has reviewed the request and does not require any conditions of approval for the proposed Tentative Parcel Map. I. As outlined in the project record, including the agenda report, the proposed map, as depicted in Exhibit B, would continue to have structural fire protection and suppression services provided by the Ventura County Fire Department.
