Council Findings. At a duly noticed public hearing on August 20, 2018, the City Council reviewed and considered the staff reports dated July 24, 2018, and August 20, 2018, and attachments thereto, the environmental Mitigated Negative Declaration, staff and public comments, if any, and hereby finds and determines as follows:

(a) Mitigated Negative Declaration. The City Council finds and determines that the Mitigated Negative Declaration is appropriate for the proposed project, according to CEQA Guidelines section 15070, Decision to Prepare a Mitigated Declaration, wherein "…there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record that the project, as revised by incorporation of the mitigation measures, may have a significant effect on the environment…" Approval of the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment of the City of San Mateo City Council.

(b) Conformance with General Plan. The City Council finds and determines that the proposed zoning to Regional/Community Commercial is in conformance with the Regional/Community Commercial land use designation of the General Plan of the City of San Mateo, because the Regional/Community Zoning District provides hotels as a permitted use that is consistent with the permitted land use of the General Plan Regional/Community Commercial designation.
