setback.
b. That the project is designed to be architec-
turally consistent with the abutting property to
the north.

oral and documentary, and further based on the
findings above the Precise Plan of Design No. 801,

which shall be grounds for revocation of said Precise
Plan by the Planning Commission or City Council.
