This meeting will be used to confirm the project schedule, work elements, and development assumptions, as well as confirm the data to be provided by the project team and necessary timing of that data relative to the overall schedule. The kick-off meeting will include DJP&A's historic consultant. • Noticing DJP&A will prepare the Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the project, and file the NOP with the State Clearinghouse. The City will send the NOP to all other applicable parties and agencies. The City will prepare all other notices including the Notice of Availability, Notice of Completion, and Notice of Determination. During the NOP circulation period, DJP&A will attend a scoping meeting for the project. DJP&A will assist City staff to facilitate the meeting and will present the EIR process at the meeting. • Preparation of the Administrative Draft EIR DJP&A will prepare an Administrative Draft EIR (ADEIR). The ADEIR will include a preface/introduction, a summary, a description of the project and environmental setting, an in-depth discussion of potential significant impacts, identification of proposed and recommended mitigation measures, a discussion of cumulative impacts, project alternatives, and all other required discussions as described below. EIR Summary: A summary of the EIR will be prepared which will include a brief description of the proposed project. The summary will be prepared in tabular form and will identify the impacts of the project (including cumulative impacts) and proposed mitigation measures. The summary will also list the alternatives discussed and will address any known areas of public controversy. Project Description:Based on information provided to DJP&A by the City, the EIR will provide a detailed description of the proposed project, including the physical characteristics (grading and drainage, setbacks, lot layout, percentage of site coverage, maximum building height, landscaping/hardscape, circulation, etc.) of the development. This section will include a list of the project objectives, necessary discretionary actions, and decision-making agencies. Maps and graphics will be provided to illustrate the text. Consistency with Plans and Policies:This section will discuss the proposed project's consistency with applicable land use controls, including local, regional, and statewide plans and policies. Particular attention will be given to inconsistencies, if any are identified, and the likelihood that such inconsistencies might result in significant adverse environmental effects. Environmental Setting, Impacts and Mitigation Measures:In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15125, the EIR will clearly describe the baseline environmental setting of the project site and surrounding area based on conditions that exist at the time the NOP is released. For identified impacts, all feasible mitigation measures will be identified. Graphics will include, but are not limited to, regional ATTY/AGR/2016.258/DAVID J.POWERS&ASSOCIATES, INC.
