Findings Regarding Impact CR -5. The City Council hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure CR -5 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact CR -5, such that this potential impact would be less than significant, because this measure requires (a) training of construction crews to identify cultural resources, (b) halting all work if tribal remains or cultural resources are encountered during construction, (c) specific steps be taken to protect and preserve such remains or significant cultural resources, (d) notification of the Native American Heritage Commission, and (e) proper treatment and disposition of any Native American remains with appropriate dignity. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on page 4.4-12 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 12. Geology, Soils & Seismicity Impact GS -3: Project development could cause ground settlement due to dewatering. Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measure GS -3 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact GS -3. The City Council hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure GS -3 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact GS -3, such that this potential impact would be less than significant, because this measure requires the Project geotechnical engineer to implement a settlement monitoring program to address any potential settlement problems anticipated from the groundwater table drawdown and/or any observed settlement due to dewatering or excavation activities. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages 4.5-11 through 4.5-12 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 13. Noise Impact NO -1: The project would not cause exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the City's General Plan or Municipal Code, or applicable standards of other agencies. However, due to the long duration of construction activities, Mitigation Measure NO -1 is recommended to reduce potential noise impacts. Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measure NO -1 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact NO -1. The City Council hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure NO -1 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact NO -1, such that this potential impact would be less than significant, because this measure requires the Project to incorporate numerous noise -reducing practices into the construction contract agreement documents to be implemented by the construction contractor during the entire construction phase of the project, including the requirements to: (a) prepare a Construction Noise Control Plan; (b) limit the hours of construction; (c) notify all neighbors of the project site of planned construction activities; (d) post signs with contact information for persons with concerns ATTY/RESO.0036/PC RESO CERTIFYING THE EIR — SOBRATO REV: 04-29-19 PR Page 20 of 29
