permitted uses, and Development Standards which will be compatible with existing and proposed
residential, business, and public uses in the immediate vicinity; and

commit to the availability of public services prior to the issuance of building permits as required by the
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan policies and mitigation measures; and
8. The Planned Development Rezone and accompanying Site Developmen! Review, will
create an attractive, efficient, and safe environment; and
