A. The site design, including structure location, size, height, setbacks, massing,
scale, architectural style and colors, and landscaping is consistent with the
provisions of the City's General Plan, the Carlsberg Specific Plan, and Title 17 of
the Municipal Code in that all applicable standards of these plans and regulations
would be met by the proposed development and the design of the industrial /office
buildings are consistent with the Architectural Design Guidelines as outlined in
the Amended Carlsberg Specific Plan.
B. The site design would not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of the
neighboring properties or uses as the proposed uses are compatible with
surrounding land uses and the circulation system provides for logical
connections. The project also is a substantial distance from any existing
residential development.
C. The proposed uses are compatible with the existing and permitted uses in the
surrounding area as they share a similar zoning and the proposed development
is consistent with criteria specified in the Amended Carlsberg Specific Plan and
development requirements for office, retail, and industrial developments in
applicable City Codes.
