ATTY/RESO.0114/PC RESO CERTIFYING FINAL EIR – 557 E. BAYSHORE ROAD REV: 12-09-22 VR Page 19 of 61 best management practices that include restriction of invasive planting, equipment washing, and erosional control seed mix planting as specified. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages 47 through 81 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 5. Biological Resources Impact BIO-C: The Project could result in a cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant biological resources impact. Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measures BIO-1.1 through BIO-1-20 and BIO- 2.1 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact BIO-2. The Planning Commission hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measures BIO-1.1 through BIO-1.20 & BIO -2.1 into the Project would substantially lessen the severity of Impact BIO-C, such that this potential impact would be less than significant, because these measures will require pre-activity and pre-disturbance surveys, avoidance/non-disturbance buffers, shielding/ orientation and minimization of lighting to determine the presence of Congdon’s Tarplant, bird nesting and other wildlife. Mitigation also includes worker environmental awareness programs and herbaceous cover removal prior to construction activities on site to reduce impacts to salt march harvest mouse and salt marsh wandering shrew. Bird-safe building design implementation is required to reduce bird collisions. Further mitigations include environmentally sensitive area fencing, immediate work stoppage, planting of high tide refugial habitat (following grading), and integrated invasive weed management program, prohibition of outdoor cats and off-leash dogs and food waste management Additionally, the measures will require implementation of invasive weed best management practices that include restriction of invasive planting, equipment washing, and erosional control seed mix planting as specified. This finding is based on the entire record of proceedings for the Project, including but not limited to the discussion and analysis set forth on pages 47 through 81 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 6. Transportation and Traffic Impacts TRN-2: The Project could conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.3, subdivision (b). Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measure TRN-2.1 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact TRN-2. The Planning Commission hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure TRN-2.1 into the Project would sufficiently reduce Impact TRN-2 with respect to VMT associated with the fitness center, such that these potential impacts would be less than significant, because this mitigation measure requires additional TDM measures into the proposed TDM plan sufficient to demonstrate that VMT associated with the fitness center would be reduced to 15.0 or less per employee. The TDM plan shall include financial incentives for employees and/or patrons that utilize alternative modes of transportation to travel to and from the site (i.e.,
