documents, have together served as an adequate and appropriate evidentiary basis for the findings and actions set forth in this Resolution. Section 2. CEQA: The Planning Commission finds that the Project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning), as further explained in the CEQA Memorandum, because: a. The Planning Commission has reviewed and analyzed information in the entire record and has considered such information, including the written and oral comments received at the public hearing, prior to acting upon or approving the Project. b. Based on substantial evidence in the record, the proposed Project is within the scope of the previously approved General Plan and is adequately described in the General Plan EIR for purposes of CEQA. The mitigation measures and Statement of Overriding Considerations associated with certification of the General Plan EIR address the environmental effects of the Project. Accordingly, with the approval of this Project, all applicable mitigation measures and the Statement of Overriding Considerations are hereby reconfirmed and readopted. c. As set forth in CEQA Guidelines section 15183, subdivisions (a) and (b), the proposed Project is consistent with the Redwood City General Plan, which establishes development density consistent with the proposed development density associated with the Project. Further, there are no environmental effects which are peculiar to the project or its site, nor are there any new significant effects that were not already identified and analyzed in the certified EIR, nor are there any potentially significant off- site impacts or cumulative impacts that were not already identified and analyzed in the certified EIR, nor is there any new information which was not known at the time of the certification of the EIR that identifies any significant effects which will have a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the certified EIR. Further, as set forth in subdivision (d) of CEQA Guidelines section 15183, the proposed Project is consistent with the General Plan, and an EIR was prepared for the General Plan. For these reasons, no further environmental review is required pursuant to CEQA. d. Pursuant to Guidelines section 15091(e), the documents and other materials that constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission has based its decision are located in and may be obtained from, the Office of the City Clerk at 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City California. The City Clerk is the custodian of records for all matters before the City. Page 3 of 26 ATTY/RESO.0098/PC RESO 910 WOODSIDE ROAD REV: 10-09-19 PR
