Section
3. The

property
that
is
the
subject
of
the
Embassy
Suites
Hotel
Addition :
PD-
38 Overlay
District
is
defined
as (
APN:
002-
200-
001
and
002-
141-
002)
as
shown
on
Exhibit "
B",
attached
hereto
and
incorporated
herein
by
reference.
The
City
Council
hereby
finds
that
the
adoption
of
this
ordinance,
approving
the
Embassy
Suites
Addition :
PD-
38 Overlay
District,
is
consistent
with
the
City'
s
General
Plan
and
the
findings
contained
in
NMC
Section
17. 66.
080
and
Section
17. 42.
050.
The
City
Council
hereby
finds
that:
1 .
The
proposed
planned
development
amendment
is
consistent
with
the
principles
of
the
General
Plan.
The
proposed
Planned
Development
Overlay
is
consistent
with
the
principles
of
the
General
Plan,
since
it
locates
an
appropriate
land
use
within
the
boundaries
and
urban
limits
of
the
City
of
Napa,
which
land
use
is
complementary
to
the
mix
of
uses
within
the
city
and
is
appropriate
to
its
surroundings,
and,
further
that
the
proposed
Planned
Development
Overlay
is
consistent
with
the
General
Plan
as
the
proposed
transient
use
of
the
Embassy
Suites
Hotel
Addition
is
consistent
with
the
Tourist
Commercial
Designation.
2. The
public
health,
safety
and
general
welfare
are
served
by
the
adoption
of
the
proposed
amendment.
The
public
health,
safety
and
general
welfare
is
served
by
the
Planned
Development
Overlay,
since
conditions
and
restrictions
included
within
the
Planned
Development
Overlay
provide
clear
and
appropriate
protections
of
the
public'
s
health
and
safety,
and
the
project'
s
design,
which
is
intended
to
preserve
natural
and
scenic
resources,
will
further
the
public
welfare.
3. The
development
is
superior
overall
to
a
similar
project
designed
to
meet
the
standards
of
this
Title
and
of
the
underlying
district
in
which
it
is
located.
The
hotel
addition
provides
a
design
that
is
unique
and
contains
a
combination
of
quality
forms
and
materials.
The
inclusion
of
the
rooftop
wading
pool
adds
to
the
amenities
that
are
anticipated
from
a
resort
style
hotel.
This
feature
is
similar
to
the
rooftop
pool
and
supporting
services
found
at
the
Archer
Hotel
in
the
Downtown.

4. Any
variations
from
the
standards
of
the
Zoning
Ordinance
and
the
district
in
which
the
development
is
located
are
justified
by
the
high
quality
design
of
the
proposed
development
when
taken
together
as
a
whole.
The
increased
height
which
only
applies
to
less
than
400
square
feet
of
space
on
the
rooftop
represents
a
small
fraction
of
the
overall
building.
This
small
variation
is
justified
given
the
high
quality
architectural
design
of
the
building
as
well
as
the
inclusion
of
a "
living
wall."
The
portion
of
the
building
that
exceeds
the
maximum
height
will
be
wrapped
with
a
foliage "
green"
skin
which
will
soften
the
rooftop
appurtenances.
5. Each
phase (
if
any)
of
the
development,
as
well
as
the
development
as
a
whole,
can
exist
as
an
independent
unit
capable
of
creating
an
environment
of
sustained
desirability
and
stability.
The
hotel
addition
is
a
stand-
alone
building
that
will
be
constructed
in
one
phase.
It
could
operate
solely,
even
if
the
main
hotel
was
not
directly
adjacent
on
the
same
site.
6. The
proposed
development
is
planned
in
coordination
and
compatible
with
the
existing
and
planned
uses
in
the
surrounding
area.
The
hotel
addition
has
been
designed
to
coordinate
with
the
existing
hotel
which
has
been
in
existence
at
this
site
for
more
than
30 years.
The
addition
will
be
as
compatible
with
the
California
Boulevard
neighborhood
as
the
existing
hotel
has
been.
7. The
proposed
structures
and/
or
uses
are
consistent
with
the
General
Plan
and
any
applicable
specific
plan
or
other
adopted
plan.
The
property
is
located
within
the
TC-
484,
Tourist
Commercial
General
Plan
designation
which
provides
for
tourist
oriented
commercial
retail
and
services
such
as
destination-
resort
hotels,
motels,
and
their
recreational
amenities
such
as
spas
and
conference
centers.
The
hotel
addition
as
well
as
the
existing
use
of
the
site
as
a
hotel,
conference
center
and
restaurant
providing
lodging,
spa
services
and
conference
facilities
are
consistent
with
the
Tourist
Commercial
General
Plan
designation.
8. Any
conditions
stipulated
as
necessary
in
the
public
interest
have
been
imposed.
The
project
plans
and
associated
application
submittal
materials
have
been
reviewed
by
the
responsible
City
departments
and
agencies.
All
Department/
Division'
s
responses
have
been
included
in
the
recommended
Conditions
of
Approval.
All
applicable
project
conditions
have
been
incorporated
in
the
recommended
Conditions
of
Approval
for
the
project.
9. The
proposed
structures
and
or
uses
will
not
be
detrimental
to
the
public
health,
safety
and
welfare
of
the
community.
