events are proposed as part of the park's programming, then noise modeling would characterize the existing noise environment and estimate potential impacts. The ambient noise data will be used to evaluate whether the proposed development is consistent with the land use compatibility guidelines in Redwood City General Plan prepared in 2010. The appropriate approach to characterizing ambient noise will be determined when the environmental review work is initiated and after consultation with Redwood City. Recreation: This project increases the availability of recreation in the downtown environment that would benefit nearby residents. Though not typical of CEQA, these benefits could be characterized to offset temporary construction impacts on the same residents. CEQA requires that the analysis of recreation impacts examine whether construction of new facilities and trails can impact biological and physical resources. Parking and Traffic: Parking is no longer a CEQA requirement, but downtown merchants may feel dependent upon its availability. Redwood City provides a variety of parking options some of which are new since the Parking Memo was prepared. The Lot A project would affect available parking at the library. An updated response strategy for those impacts to City patrons will be needed to address the issue in public forums. Deliverables: + Incorporation of appropriate technical report findings into each CEQA IS/MND ■ The Administrative Draft IS/MND will include the approved Project Description (Task E3) and Subconsultant's initial responses to all CEQA Appendix G questions. • Word file for editing and comments. PDF file for full text and graphics review for each document. • Appendices will include approved technical reports. Subtask E.6: Prepare Public Draft IS/MND per City Staff Comments Subconsultant will address two rounds of Consultant/City comments on the Administrative Draft IS/MND. It is assumed that all Consultant/City comments will be consolidated into one set, which will aid Subconsultant in completing the document in the most timely and efficient manner. Subconsultant will submit an electronic pdf format version of the Screencheck Draft IS/MND that Consultant and City staff can review to confirm that all comments have been adequately addressed. Deliverables: • Respond to two rounds of comments for the Administrative Draft IS/MND • Single Screencheck Draft for approval of each publication Subtask E.7: Publication of the Draft IS/MND Upon approval of the Screencheck Draft IS/MND, Subconsultant will produce electronic copies for distribution plus up to ten hard copies for city staff to use during the 30 -day public review. Electronic files provided to City include the administrative record, all required notices, referenced documents and other pertinent information.
