A. ADVERSE AFFECTS. The property adjacent to the area included in the plan shall not be adversely affected by encroaching buildings, retention ponds or other drainage paths, vehicular circulation routes, location of refuse collection points, or the proximity of the entry of the new development on the public roadway.
B. ZONING. The plan must be consistent with the intent and purposes of The City of Findlay Zoning Ordinance to promote public health, safety, and general welfare.
