CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS: The City Council may grant a conditional use permit as it was applied for or in modified form. On the basis of the application and the evidence submitted, the city finds that the proposed use at the Property is or will be: 1. Consistent with the community management plan; The intent for the proposed grading is residential in nature, is consistent with the permitted uses for the Property, and is compliant with the zoning code and comprehensive plan. 2. Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; The proposed grading is residential in nature which is consistent with the permitted uses for the Property. 3.
