SUBJECT: REQUIRED FINDINGS AND CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF TENTATIVE
PARCEL MAP NO. 2006-37, DATED NOVEMBER 20, 2006, FOR
PROPERTY LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF SOUTH ARTHUR AVENUE
BETWEEN WEST FLORENCE AVENUE AND WEST GEARY STREET
(APN: 477-134-01 & 12)
BACKGROUND
Tentative Parcel Map No. 2006-37, filed by the Muir Consulting, Inc., on behalf of Axel Gomez,
and accepted for processing on November 20, 2006, proposes to subdivide approximately 0.71
acres of property into four parcels located on the east side of South Arthur Avenue between
West Florence Avenue and West Geary Street. The subject site is located within the jurisdiction
of the Edison Community Plan, Southwest Fresno General Neighborhood Renewal Area Project
(GNRA) Redevelopment Plan, Fresno-Chandler Downtown Airport Master and Environs
Specific Plan and the 2025 Fresno General Plan. The Edison Community Plan, GNRA
Redevelopment Plan and the 2025 Fresno General Plan designate the site for medium density
residential planned land uses. The Fresno-Chandler Downtown Airport Master and Environs
Specific Plan defers designated planned land uses to the underlying community and general
plans. However, the Fresno-Chandler Downtown Airport Master and Environs Specific Plan
regulates uses and restricts the height of structures within its plan area. Pursuant to Table 2
(Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan the
recently adopted R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district is consistent with the planned
land use designation of medium density residential.
The parcel map proposes to create four parcels which meet the property development
standards of the R-1 zone district as identified in Section 12-211.5 of the Fresno Municipal
Code. The subject site is developed with single family residences and related accessory
structures. The engineer has noted on the parcel map that all structures on the subject site will
be removed. The proposed subdivision will allow for the future development of four new single
family residences on newly created parcels. Access to the subject site is via West North
Avenue which is identified as a local street. Each parcel will be required to dedicate and
construct curb, gutter and will be required to underground all overhead utilities. Staff has
reviewed the proposed design and improvements of Tentative Parcel Map No. 2006-37 and has
determined that the map is consistent with adopted policies as described below.

REQUIRED FINDINGS
The initial study prepared for Environmental Assessment No. TPM No. 2006-37 considered
potential environmental impacts associated with the tentative parcel map. The environmental
assessment resulted in a Class 15 Categorical Exemption (Section 15315/Minor Land Division
of the California Environmental Quality Act), was filed on February 12, 2007 with the County
Clerk. Staff determined that a Class 15 Categorical Exemption was appropriate given that the
proposed project is located within the R-1 zone district, which is consistent with the general plan
land use designation of medium density residential planned land uses; the division consists of
dividing land into four or fewer parcels; no variances or exceptions are required; all services and
access to the proposed parcel is to local standards; the division of land is not involved in a
division of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years; and the parcels do not have an average
slope greater than 20 percent.
STATE SUBDIVISION MAP ACT(SMA)
The SMA (California Government Code Section §66410 et. seq.) requires that a proposed
parcel map not be approved unless the map, together with its design and improvements is
found to be consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan (Finding No. 1
below). State law further provides that the proposed parcel map be denied approval if any one
of the Findings Nos. 2-5, below, is made in the negative.
1. The proposed parcel map, together with its design and improvements is consistent with
the 2025 Fresno General Plan, Edison Community Plan and Southwest Fresno General
Neighborhood Renewal Area Project Redevelopment Plan designate the site for medium
density residential planned land uses which is consistent with the R-1 zone district.
2. The site is physically suitable for the proposed development because of the flat terrain of
the site and adequate access and drainage on and off the site. The Fresno Metropolitan
Flood Control District will require that the drainage from the site be diverted to the future
Master Plan Facilities.
3. The proposed parcel map design and improvements are not likely to cause substantial
and considerable damage to the natural environment, including fish, wildlife, or their
habitat, because of the urbanized nature of the area in which the site is located.
4. The proposed parcel map design and improvements are not likely to cause serious
public health and safety problems, because the conditions of approval have shown and
will insure that the subdivision conforms with City health and safety standards.
5. The proposed parcel map design will not conflict with pubic easements within or through
the site because conditions of approval will assure noninterference with any existing or
proposed public easements.

Staff, based on its own analysis, has determined that the parcel map, subject to the
recommended conditions of approval, otherwise complies with the design and property
development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and local Parcel Map Ordinance and
recommends the approval of the parcel map.
DIRECTOR DETERMINATION
1. Based upon the above analysis, the Planning and Development Department Director
finds that Tentative Parcel Map No. 2006-37 dated November 20, 2006, is consistent
with the applicable plans and policies of the City of Fresno.
2. The Planning and Development Department Director hereby grants approval of
Tentative Parcel Map No. 2006-31 subject to the conditions of approval dated May J
2007.

6. The subject site contains a portion of a canal or pipeline that is used to manage
recharge, storm water, and/or flood flows. The existing capacity must be preserved
as part of site development. Additionally, site development may not interfere with
the ability to operate and maintain the canal or pipeline.
7. The Federal Clean Water Act and the State General Permits for Storm Water Discharges
Associated with Construction and Industrial Activities (State General Permits)require
developers of construction projects disturbing one or more acres, and discharges associated with
industrial activity not otherwise exempt from National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permitting, to implement controls to reduce pollutants, prohibit the discharge of waters
other than storm water to the municipal storm drain system, and meet water quality standards.
These requirements apply both to pollutants generated during construction, and to those which O
may be generated by operations at the development after construction.
■
a• State General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction
Activities, approved August 1999, (modified December 2002.) A State General
Construction Permit is required for all clearing, grading, and disturbances to the
ground that result in soil disturbance of at least one acre (or less than one acre if part of O
a larger common plan of development or sale). Permittees are required to: submit a O
Notice of Intent to be covered and must pay a permit fee to the State Water Resources
Control Board(State Board), develop and implement a storm water pollution
prevention plan, eliminate non-storm water discharges, conduct routine site ,
inspections, train employees in permit compliance, and complete an annual O
certification of compliance.
b. State General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Industrial Activities,
April, 1997 (available at the District Office.) A State General Industrial Permit is
required for specific types of industries described in the NPDES regulations or by
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. The following categories of industries
are generally required to secure an industrial permit: manufacturing; trucking;
recycling; and waste and hazardous waste management. Specific exemptions exist for
manufacturing activities which occur entirely indoors. Permittees are required to:
submit a Notice of Intent to be covered and must pay a permit fee to the State Water
Resources Control Board, develop and implement a storm water pollution prevention
plan, eliminate non-storm water discharges, conduct routine site inspections, train
employees in permit compliance, sample storm water runoff and test it for pollutant
indicators, and annually submit a report to the State Board.

C. The proposed development is encouraged to select and implement storm water quality
controls recommended in the Fresno-Clovis Storm Water Quality Management
Construction and Post-Construction Guidelines (available at the District Office) to
meet the requirements of the State General Permits, eliminate the potential for non-
storm water to enter the municipal storm drain system, and where possible minimize
contact with materials which may contaminate storm water runoff.
8. A requirement of the District may be appealed by filing a written notice of appeal with the
Secretary of the District within ten days of the date of this Notice of Requirements.
9. The District reserves the right to modify, reduce or add to these requirements, or revise fees, as
necessary to accommodate changes made in the proposed development by the developer or
requirements made by other agencies.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS
EXHIBIT NO. 2
The following paragraphs only apply towards development of the individual parcels and are not
conditions for the recording of the map.
In an effort to improve storm water runoff quality, outdoor storage areas shall be
constructed and maintained such that material which generates contaminants will not
be conveyed by runoff into the storm drain system.
The District encourages, but does not require that roof drains from non-residential
development be constructed such that they are directed onto and through a
landscaped grassy Swale area to filter out pollutants from roof runoff.
Runoff from areas where industrial activities, product, or merchandise come into
contact with and may contaminate storm water must be directed through landscaped
areas or otherwise treated before discharging it off-site or into a storm drain. Roofs
covering such areas are recommended. Cleaning of such areas by sweeping instead
of washing is to be required unless such wash water can be directed to the sanitary
sewer system. Storm drains receiving untreated runoff from such areas that directly
connect to the District's system will not be permitted. Loading docks, depressed
areas, and areas servicing or fueling vehicles are specifically subject to these
requirements. The District's policy governing said industrial site NPDES program
requirements are available. Contract the District's Environmental Department for
further information regarding these policies related to industrial site requirements.
