� � � w V the EIR side of the line, otherwise referred to as the "Affected Area," and parcels east of 3726 are on the No �IR side of the line. Recently, the property owner of 3730 Laurel Way (a vacant lot), has made staff aware of a need for clarification between the Staff Report from December 18, 2000 and the associated Resolution. Both documents describe the location of the EIR — No EIR line, but use different references. Staff has met with the property owner and there was a subsequent exchange of written correspondence befinreen the property owner and the City, which is provided in Attachment 1. The property owner believes that his property, which is located immediately west of 3726 Laurel Way and is thus in the "Affected Area," should not be subject to the EIR requirement since there is paving (which is significantly substandard) in front of his property as well as the presence of a water and sewer line in the street. 3730 Laurel Way is located on the EIR side of the line as indicated in the map below, since this property is west of the transition point established by the location of the "Last House."

The determination that the Last House would specify the location af the line is based on the following considerations which include significant geologic concerns that have been observed in the Affected Area: ■ Soil creepage and several subsurFace water seepage zones must be evaluated comprehensively. ■ Roadway cracking possibly indicating downslope movement must be further investigated and understood. ■ Pooled water on the roadway and other evidence of groundwater seepage also requires additional study. ■ Landslide risk due to the above noted geologic factors and the steep terrain within the context of the seismically active Bay Area must be fully assessed. ■ Surface drainage and soil stability needs to be assessed for existing and future development as a whole.
