The General <br /> <br />Plan has separated Commercial and Residential uses to <br /> <br /> <br />the greatest extent possible to minimize adverse <br /> <br />effects such as exposure to unacceptable noise levels. <br /> <br />Although these noise levels could be mitigated to some <br /> <br />extent the limited benefits outlined in Chapter 6 of <br /> <br />the Final EIR to be achieved by this alternative do not <br /> <br /> <br />justify the loss in economic value brought about by the <br /> <br /> <br />reduced scope of the Project. <br /> <br />3. THE OPEN CREEK ALTERNATIVE. <br /> <br /> <br />The Open Creek Alternative would result in <br /> <br /> <br />preserving and restoring the portion of Redwood Creek <br /> <br />which runs through the site, but the constraints of the <br /> <br />site would result in four two-story buildings instead <br /> <br /> <br />of the four one-story and two two-story buildings that <br /> <br /> <br />would be constructed under the proposed project. While <br /> <br /> <br />this alternative contains the same square footage as <br /> <br />the proposed project, it would not be an economically <br /> <br /> <br />viable alternative. This alternative contains almost <br /> <br /> <br />three times as much second story space as the proposed <br /> <br /> <br />project (approximately 57,276 square feet of second <br /> <br />story space compared with 21,012 square feet of second <br /> <br /> <br />story space under the proposed project).
