03/27/2007 Mitigation 10-6. Implement mitigation measures identified in chapter 9 (Transportation and Circulation) of this EIR to reduce project-related traffic impacts on local roads to less-than-significant levels. In addition, require City review and approval of proposed emergency access provisions prior to approval of individual development projects in the Precise Plan area. Require individual projects to comply with all applicable City of Redwood City road design and emergency access standards. The City may consider other alternatives to these requirements if it determines that such alternatives are feasible and such access will not jeopardize emergency response. Finding: Even if the City Council decides not to implement the mitigation measures identified in chapter 9 of this EIR to reduce project-related traffic impacts on local roads to less-than-significant levels, the implementation of the other measures set forth in Mitigation 10-6 would reduce impacts on emergency access and response to ales-than-significant level. V. NOISE A. Noise and Vibration Impacts Impact 11-1: Precise Plan-Facilitated Demolition and Construction Period Noise. Demolition and construction activities facilitated by the Downtown Precise Plan could temporarily elevate noise levels at nearby residential and commercial receptors during individual, site-specific project construction periods. Noise levels at 50 feet from the demolition or construction equipment source could reach approximately 105 dBA, resulting in intermittent interference with typical existing residential and business activities, and exceeding the land use/noise level compatibility limits established in the Redwood City Strategic General Plan Noise Element. This possibility represents a potentially significant intermittent and short-term noise impact. Mitigation 11-1. Reduce Precise Plan implementation related individual project demolition- and construction-period noise impacts on nearby residences by incorporating conditions in project demolition and construction contract agreements that stipulate the following conventional construction-period noise abatement measures: • Construction Plan. Prepare a detailed construction plan identifying the schedule for major noise-generating construction activities. The construction plan shall identify a procedure for coordination with nearby noise-sensitive facilities so that construction activities and the event schedule can be scheduled to minimize noise disturbance. • Construction Scheduling. Ensure that noise-generating construction activity is limited to between the hours of 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM, Monday through Friday, Atty/Reso/Reso.1683 25 14769 030707 Muff #613
