7.C. - Page 33 of 178 <br />The City finds that Mitigation Measure TRN-1.1 is feasible, is adopted, and will further reduce impacts associated <br />with this issue to a level of less than significant. Accordingly, the City finds that, pursuant to Public Resources Code <br />section 21081(a)(1) and State CEQA Guidelines section 15091(a)(1), changes or alterations have been required in, or <br />incorporated into, the proposed project that mitigate or avoid the potentially significant impacts of the proposed project <br />related to this issue. <br />SECTION III <br />IMPACTS THAN CANNOT BE FULLY MITIGATED TO A LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT LEVEL <br />The City Council hereby finds that, despite the incorporation of Mitigation Measures identified in the EIR <br />and in these Findings, the following environmental impacts cannot be fully mitigated to a less than significant <br />level and a Statement of Overriding Considerations is therefore included herein: <br />Impact CUL -1: The project would cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource <br />pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5. <br />Finding. The implementation of the mitigation measures MM CUL -1.1 and MM CUL -1.2 would reduce the project's <br />significant impact a historic resource, but not to a less than significant level. Significant and Unavoidable Impact <br />with Mitigation Incorporated) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project, which <br />attempt to avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effects identified in the EIR. (State CEQA <br />Guidelines, section 15091(a) (1).) However, impacts would still remain significant and unavoidable. Specific <br />economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, as identified in the EIR and elsewhere in the record, <br />make infeasible the mitigation measure or project alternatives identified in the EIR. (State CEQA Guidelines, section <br />15091(a) (3).) <br />Facts in Support of Finding: The project, with implementation of the mitigation measures MM CUL -1.1 and CUL - <br />1.2, would reduce its impact to the historic resource by documenting and commemorating the building. This <br />documentation will be completed prior to issuance of any demolition or gradingpermits and shall comply with Historic <br />American Buildings Survey (HABS) Level H and shall also comply with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for <br />Architectural and Engineering Documentation. In addition, the City will be responsible for the production and <br />placement of an interpretive display in the new VMSC/YMCA facility that describes the history and significance of the <br />senior center, using photographs, materials and drawings in addition to narrative text. The full requirements for <br />documentation and display are further outlined on pages 56 through 57 of the Draft EIR. Members of the City's <br />Historic Resources Advisory Committee (HRAC) have been invited to comment on the documentation process and <br />have also been involved in discussion regarding the creation of the interpretive display in the new VMSC/YMCA <br />facility and have provided comments on what the materials that should be included in the display from the historic <br />resource. However, as the historic resource would be demolished, the impact is considered significant and <br />unavoidable. <br />MM CUL -1.1: Prior to issuance of any demolition or grading permits, the City shall document the senior center. The <br />documentation shall be in the form of a Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) Level II and shall comply with <br />the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Architectural and Engineering Documentation. The documentation shall <br />include drawings, photographs and a narrative overview: <br />• Drawings: Existing historic drawings of the senior center, if available, shall be photographed with large -format <br />negatives or photographically reproduced on Mylar. <br />ATTY/RESO.0124/CC RESO RECOMMENDING CEQA CERTIFICATION - YMCA <br />REV: 12-12-19 IY <br />Page 16 of 44 <br />456 <br />
