services and access to the proposed parcels to local standards are available, the parcel was not
involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years, and the parcel does not have
an average slope greater than 20 percent. Tentative Parcel Map No. 38753 is a subdivision of a
1.26-acre parcel into two (2) parcels that are 0.79 acres and 0.47 acres. The subject site is zoned
Neighborhood Commercial (C-1) and is located in a location that meets the definition of an
urbanized area as set forth in Section 21071(a)(2) of the Public Resources Code. The project is
consistent with the General and zoning and does not require a variance or an exception. All
necessary services and access to the property is available. The parcel was not involved in a
division of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years. The parcel was created in 1980 (Parcel 1
of PM 15591). The parcel is relatively flat and does not have an average slope greater than 20
percent.
