or improvements in the neighborhood, as the school site and/or adjacent streets will be designed
to accommodate anticipated traffic circulation, and all applicable regulations will be met.
The proposed use will not be contrary to the specific intent clauses or performance standards
established for the District in which it is to be located in that conditions have been applied to
ensure conformance with the applicable Specific Plan and environmental impact rrdtigation
requirements, and because the use is consistent with the character of the surrounding area.

Development Land Use and Development Plan/District Planned Development Plan.
