7- ., - liB CONCLUSIONS AND ULTIMATE FINDINGS Based upon the foregoing, the consideration of all public testimony, a comprehensive review of the DEIR and the FEIR (collectively, the "EIR"), and substantial evidence in the Administrative Record, the City Council finds and determines, that: (1) The EIR has adequately addressed all the issues raised in the appeal; (2) The proposed project, located in the CBR district of downtown, would be exempt'from the Interim Urgency Ordinance because a Development Agreement (DA) and Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) would be required as part of the project approval process; (3) The Interim Urgency Ordinance does not constitute new information of significance that would warrant further environmental analysis; (4) The EIR adequately considers a housing land-use on the Project site and analyzes a potential mixed-use project with a housing component in Alternative 2; (5) The EIR adequately analyzes the parking needs generated by the project using a professionally accepted model of Shared Parking; and (6) The EIR adequately analyzes cumulative traffic impacts (to 2020) using a methodology that incorporates, not only local, but regional impacts as well. Based upon the above findings and determinations, the appeal of the Planning Commission's Certification of the FEIR for the Downtown Retail-Cinema Project shall be deemed denied in accordance with the provisions of this document.
