NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The City Council has considered the proposed General Plan Amendment, prior to approving the proposed amendment to the City's Land Use map. The City Council finds and determines that Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2007-12 is adequate and prepared in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). SECTION 2. That in accor,dance with State Planning and Zoning law and the City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the City Council makes the following findings for the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2007-14: 1. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not be: a) detrimental to the health, safety, comfort or general welfare of the persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed amendment or within the City, or b) injurious to the property or improvements in the neighborhood or within the City. a. Hydraulic analysis performed by FEMA, which incorporate updated topographic information and channel improvements, resulted in a revised delineation of the regulafory floodway area. This resulted in the subject parcels being categorized in the FEMA maps as lying within Zone X, therefore removing them from a floodway area. 1 b. FEMA defines Zone X on their Flood Insurance Map as a zone that corresponds to areas outside the 1-percenf annual chance floodplain, areas of 1-percent annual chance sheet flow flooding where average depths are /ess than 9 foot, areas of 1-percent annual chance stream flooding where the contributing drainage area is /ess than 1 square mile, or areas protected from fhe 1-percent annual chance flood by /evees. No Base Flood Elevations or depths are shown within this zone. Insurance purchase is not required in these zones. c. The proposed change would allow economic use of an otherwise non- bene~cial area thaf, according to FEMA, is no longer is considered to lie within a floodway. The proposed General Plan Amendmenf will not have a signi~cant effect on the environment. d. The General Plan Amendment does not propose any significanf change from surrounding land use designations and will not result in any significant environmental impacts as explained in Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2007-12. SECTION 3. Based upon all of the evidence presented, and the above findings, the City Council of the City of Lake Elsinore does hereby approve General Plan Amendment No. 2007-06. SECTION 4.
