01/24/2011 Exhibit B increase represents a potentially significant cumulative impact, because implementing Mitigation Measure 9 -2 would conflict with the City's PED policies, and because the improvements required by this mitigation measure are not within the City's jurisdiction, this mitigation measure is deemed infeasible, and this impact is deemed to be significant and unavoidable. (ii) Remaining Impacts. Because there are no feasible mitigation measures available to mitigate the significant impact identified above, this impact is considered significant and unavoidable. (iii) Overriding Considerations. The environmental, social, economic and other benefits of the DPP override the significant adverse impacts of the DPP relating to the cumulative traffic impacts described above, as set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations below. Impact 9 -12: Cumulative Impact on Main Street/Woodside Road Westbound Ramps Intersection. Under Cumulative With Project Conditions during both the AM and PM peak hour, this intersection would continue to operate at an unacceptable LOS F. The additional project traffic would cause the critical delay to increase by more than five (5) seconds, plus the peak hour signal warrant. a) Potential Impact. The impact identified above is described and discussed on pages 9 -58 to 9 -64 of the DEIR. b) Findings. Based on the FEIR and the entire record before the City, the City Council finds that: (i) Mitigation Measures. Mitigation of this project impact could be achieved by Mitigation Measure 9 -3 as discussed under Impact 9 -3, above. However, as noted above, the improvements proposed by Mitigation Measure 9 -3 are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of Caltrans, and can and should be adopted by Caltrans. Because implementation of this mitigation measure is outside of the City's jurisdiction, it is deemed infeasible and therefore this impact is deemed to be significant and unavoidable. (ii) Remaining Impacts. Because there are no feasible mitigation measures available to mitigate the significant impact identified above, this impact is considered significant and unavoidable. (iii) Overriding Considerations. The environmental, social, economic and other benefits of the DPP override the significant adverse impacts of the DPP relating to the cumulative traffic impacts described above, as set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations below.
