<br />Mitigation Measure D.2: The Project sponsor and the City of Redwood <br />City shall work with Caltrans to lengthen the westbound left-turn pocket and <br />install advance warning signs at the \/eterans Boulevardl\Noodside Road <br />intersection. The Project sponsor would pay its fair share of the cost of this <br />measure. <br /> <br />Finding D.2: Impact D.2 would be Significant and Unavoidable because it <br />is not certain that Mitigation Measure D.2 is feasible (Le., because the City of <br />Redwood City, as Lead Agency, could not implement the improvement without <br />Caltrans' approval. This improvement is in another agency's jurisdiction.) <br /> <br />Overriding Consideration D.2: The environmental, economic, social and <br />other benefits of the Project override the significant impact described above, as <br />more fully stated in the Statement of Overriding Considerations in Section 2 of <br />the Resolution. <br /> <br />Impact D.4: The Project would increase the traffic volume-to-capacity <br />ratios on area freeways. (Significant) <br /> <br />Mitigation Measure D.4: The Project sponsor would implement <br />Mitigation Measure D.1 (a more aggressive Transportation Demand <br />Management program). The Project sponsor would be fully responsible for this <br />measure. <br /> <br />Finding D.4: Impact D.4 is Significant and Unavoidable because the City <br />of Redwood City can not implement freeway improvements. The freeways are in <br />Caltrans (another agency's) jurisdiction. Also, freeway widening is generally <br />considered beyond the scope of a single development project and is, therefore, <br />considered infeasible <br /> <br />Overriding Consideration D.4: The environmental, economic, social and <br />other benefits of the Project override the significant impact described above, as <br />more fully stated in the Statement of Overriding Considerations in Section 2 of <br />the Resolution. <br /> <br />B. <br /> <br />NOISE. <br /> <br />Impact F.2: Pile driving associated with Project construction would result <br />in adverse short term noise effects. (Significant) <br /> <br />Mitigation Measure F.2a: To reduce the potential for noise impacts from <br />pile driving, alternate methods of driving shall be used, if feasible. <br /> <br />Mitigation Measure F .2b: Establish a process for responding to and <br />tracking complaints pertaining to construction noise that includes the following <br />components: <br /> <br />2 <br />U:\ProjectslAbbott Labs\Planning Commission - EIR and Entitlements\Statement of Overriding ConsiderationslAbbott - Statement of <br />Overriding Considertions.doc <br />
