single-family residence. The proposed project as conditioned is
consistent with the General Plan in that it will maintain the integrity
and not degrade this residential area. The proposed project, as

(Post Modern) and construction materials, which are compatible with
the eclectic architectural styles, colors, and material of other homes
within vicinity.

with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future
development, and will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards.

parcel of land surrounded by existing developed residential
development of the same proposed size and intensity. Therefore, the
proposed project will compliment the development of the
neighborhood. Additionally, Blenbury Drive adequately serves the
project site and was established to handle minimum traffic created by
this type of development.
