Whereas, Jim Adam, 29921 Camino Capistrano, San Juan Capistrano, CA
92675 (the "Applicant"), has requested approval of Tentative Tract Map 17842 (15-001),
Hidden Creek Estates to create eight(8) lots for the development of single-family detached
homes on an existing 2.5 acre parcel, located at 29921 Camino Capistrano,along the west
side of Camino Capistrano and north of Junipero Serra Road, which is General Plan-
designated of 2.2 Medium Low Density and classified as RS-10,000 on the Official Zoning
Map (the "Project"); and,
Whereas, Abdu H. Adam and Jim Adam are the owners of real property
located at 29921 Camino Capistrano (APN: 121-050-01); and,
Whereas, the proposed project has been processed pursuant to Section

Whereas, the City's Environmental Administrator has determined that the
project is Categorically Exempt (Section 15332; Class 32 "In-Fill Development Projects")
from further review. The project is consistent with Section 15332 because the project will
subdivide a parcel that is less than five (5) acres, does not include habitat, endangered,
rare or threatened species, will not result in significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality, and the site is adequately served by all required utilities and public
services. In addition,the project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation
and Zoning designation and regulations; and,
Whereas,the City Council has considered the Environmental Administrator's
determination pursuant to Section 15074 of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA); and,
Whereas, the Planning Commission conducted a duly-noticed public hearing
on June 23, 2015, pursuant to Title 9, Land Use Code, Section 9-2.302 and City Council
Policy 5 to consider public testimony on the proposed project and has considered all
relevant public comments. After considering public testimony and careful study, the

4, 2015, pursuant to Title 9, Land Use Code, Section 9-2.302 and City Council Policy 5 to
consider public testimony on the proposed project and has considered all relevant public
comments.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, as follows:
SECTION 1. The above recitations are true and correct and adopted as the
findings of the City Council.
SECTION 2. The City Council exercises its independent judgment and finds
that the Project, as conditioned hereby, is categorically exempt from environmental review
under the CEQA, Section 15332, Class 32 (In-fill Development Projects).
SECTION 3. With regard to Tentative Tract Map (TTM) 17842, the City
Council does hereby make the following findings as established by Section 9-4.223 of Title
9, Land Use Code of the City of San Juan Capistrano:
1. The proposed use is consistent with the maps and policies of the General Plan and
any applicable specific plan or comprehensive development plan, specifically the
Land Use Element because the project proposes residential use and a density
consistent with that Element; the Circulation Element because frontage
improvements will be consistent with Camino Capistrano's "secondary arterial"
designation; the Cultural Resources Element because the site has been assessed
and a portion of Old State Route 101 will be preserved;,and the Noise Element
because site mitigation and building siting will provide exterior areas with less than
65 dBA (CNEL), subject to the recommended conditions of approval.
2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the
General Plan and any applicable specific plan or comprehensive development plan
because the design of frontage improvements and the private street are consistent
with the Circulation Element; and the subdivision design is consistent with
Community Design Goal 2, which provides, "Preserve the historic character of the
community'; specifically Policy 2.1,which provides, "Encourage development which
complements the City's traditional, historic character through site design,
•"diahitecture, and landscaping." The project will preserve a portion of Old State
Route 101.
3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development because the site
topography, geologic characteristics, and soil conditions do not impose constraints
to residential use, and because the site directly fronts and has access to Camino
Capistrano, a designated secondary arterial.
4. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development because the
site topography, geologic characteristics, and soils conditions do not impose
constraints to the density and the site is served by public water, public sewer, and
other necessary public services (i.e. electricity, natural gas, and telephone).
5. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat because the existing site has been graded for development of
residential units and does not provide habitat for State or Federally-protected wildlife
species.
6. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with
easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property
within the proposed subdivision because no planned public infrastructure will
traverse the project site.
SECTION 4. The City Council hereby approves of Tentative Tract Map(TTM)
17842 subject to the conditions of approval which are attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and
incorporated herein.
SECTION 5. PROTEST OF FEES, DEDICATIONS, RESERVATIONS OR
OTHER EXACTIONS.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 66020, the applicant may protest the
imposition of fees, dedications, reservations or other exactions imposed on this
development project by taking the necessary steps and following the procedures
established by Sections 66020 through 66022 of the California Government Code.
SECTION 6. The City Council hereby directs staff to prepare, execute and
file with the Orange County Clerk a Notice of Exemption within five (5)working days of the
`r approval of this Resolution.
SECTION 7. The documents and materials associated with this Resolution
that constitute the record of proceedings on which these findings are based are located at
San Juan Capistrano City Hall, 32400 Paseo Adelanto , San Juan Capistrano, California
92675. The Development Services Director is the custodian of the record of proceedings.
