<br />CWM:djm ll/06/89 (098/#25) <br />CWM:djm ./29/89R <br /> <br />consists of leaving the Redevelopment Plan as <br /> <br />currently adopted and leaving the Amendment Area in <br /> <br />its blighted condition. <br /> <br />While <br /> <br />any <br /> <br />significant <br /> <br />adverse effect identified in the Final EIR would be <br /> <br />eliminated by this Alternative, <br /> <br />the overriding <br /> <br />considerations of achievement of the goals of the <br /> <br />General Plan, the rehabilitation and replacement of <br /> <br />housing for low-and moderate-income families, job <br /> <br />creation and community beautification outweigh the <br /> <br />adverse effects set forth in the Final EIR. <br /> <br />This <br /> <br />alternative is, therefore, infeasible and undesirable <br /> <br />because it would also preclude attainment of the <br /> <br />express objectives of the Community Redevelopment <br /> <br />Law. <br /> <br />The avoidance of limited negative effects is <br /> <br />not justified by the loss of the specifically <br /> <br />identified beneficial impacts on the environment to <br /> <br />be realized as a result of the Project, as the Final <br /> <br />EIR recognizes in Chapter Six. <br /> <br />2. The Limited Power Of Eminent Domain Alternative. <br /> <br />Under this alternative, the power of eminent domain <br /> <br />would be limited to 36 of the estimated 400 dwelling <br /> <br />units located in non-residentially zoned portions of <br /> <br />the Amendment Area. <br /> <br />This alternative is infeasible <br /> <br />and should not be adopted for two reasons: <br /> <br />a. The power of eminent domain is critical to <br /> <br />the accomplishment of almost all of the <br /> <br />objectives of the Community Redevelopment Law <br /> <br />20 <br /> <br />11190 <br />
