Findings and Statements Required by the California Environmental Quality Act Harbor View Project PAGE 6 OF 48 ESA / 170951 Final Environmental Impact Report October 2022 ATTY/RESO.0085/PC RESO RECOMMENDING CEQA – EXHIBIT A REV: 11-02-2022 VR open spaces are located approximately 0.5 miles in the Downtown planning area and in the Southeast planning area. Nearby waterways range from approximately 700 and 1,200. Solar energy collectors are also approximately 700 feet from the Project site. Overall, no continuous shadow would be cast on these aforementioned facilities for a duration that would substantially impair their use, if at all. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. (DEIR, pp. 4-1.18 to 4.1-20; FEIR, p. 2-11) Impact AES-1.CU: The Project, in combination with cumulative development in the Project vicinity and citywide, would not result in significant cumulative impacts to aesthetics. Findings Regarding Impact AES-1.CU: Few cumulative developments that could combine with the Revised Project to result in a cumulative adverse effect to scenic views/vistas, character, lighting and glare, or shadow. Also, all cumulative projects in the city and vicinity of the Revised Project site have or will be analyzed and, if necessary, mitigated for potential aesthetics impacts, in addition to required compliance with standards and regulations in the General Plan, Zoning Code, or applicable specific or precise plan. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. (DEIR, pp. 4.1-20 to 4.1-22; FEIR, p. 2-11.) 4.2 Air Quality Impact AIR-2: Construction activities associated with the Project would generate toxic air contaminants (TACs), including diesel particulate matter (DPM), but would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations (Criterion d). (Less than Significant) Findings Regarding Impact AIR-2: Sensitive receptors assessed under this impact were the inmates of the Maple Street Correctional Center located near the Revised Project site. Maximum cancer risk, the maximum chronic health risk index and the estimated PM2.5 concentrations were all substantially below applicable thresholds. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. (DEIR, pp. 4.2-22 to 4.2-23; FEIR, p. 2-11) Impact AIR-3: The Project would not create objectionable odors that would affect a substantial number of people during construction Findings Regarding Impact AIR-3: Construction-related odors of the Revised Project would be temporary and would not persist upon Project completion. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. (DEIR, p. 4.2-22; FEIR, p. 2-11.) Impact AIR-4: The Project would not conflict with, or obstruct implementation of the 2017 Clean Air Plan Findings Regarding Impact AIR-4: The Revised Project would not disrupt or hinder implementation of control measures identified in the CAP because it includes several characteristics that will help reduce single occupant vehicle trips generated — including those identified as secondary mitigation measures to address significant traffic impacts, vehicle miles travelled (VMT) and associated emissions. (Table 4.2-5 in the DEIR). Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. (DEIR, pp. 4.2-23 to 4.2-26; FEIR, p. 2-11.)
