2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable general and specific plans, and the local coastal program.
3. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development;
4. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development;

6. That the design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems;
7. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements of record, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision, or that the map provides alternate easements, for access or for use, and that these will be substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public.
8. That the design of the new subdivision or type of improvements will not result in nor facilitate the creation of development sites within primary habitat areas.
B. The planning commission may, in addition to other causes therefore, recommend disapproval of a tentative map because of flood, inundation, geologic or slide hazards and may require protective improvements to be constructed, as a condition of approval of the map. (Ord. 2007-08 § 4 (Exh. A (part)), 2007) (Ord. No. 2009-04, § 4(Exh. A), 9-1-2009)

The city council shall determine whether or not the proposed tentative map meets the requirements of this and any other applicable ordinances, including the local coastal program, and shall thereafter approve, conditionally approve or deny said tentative map. (Ord. 2007-08 § 4 (Exh. A (part)), 2007) (Ord. No. 2009-04, § 4(Exh. A), 9-1-2009)
Following city council action, notice of the city’s action shall be provided pursuant to the administrative procedures for coastal development permits (see page 15 of the local coastal program implementation plan). (Ord. No. 2009-04, § 4(Exh. A), 9-1-2009)
