TDM monitoring requirements will ensure compliance and updates to identify replacement and/or additional feasible TDM measures as necessary to meet trip reduction targets. The City may impose penalties to ensure compliance if reporting demonstrates non-compliance. 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 182 through 192 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. 7. Transportation and Traffic Impacts TRN-C: The Project would not result in a cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant transportation impact. Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Measure TRN-2.1 will be implemented for the Project as provided in the MMRP. Findings Regarding Impact TRN-C. The Planning Commission hereby finds that incorporating the requirements of Mitigation Measure TRN-2.1 into the Project would sufficiently reduce Impact TRN-C 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., parking cash outs, carshare/bikeshare memberships and/or subsidies, transit subsidies, etc.). TDM monitoring requirements will ensure compliance and updates to identify replacement and/or additional feasible TDM measures as necessary to meet trip reduction targets. The City may impose penalties to ensure compliance if reporting demonstrates non-compliance. 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 182 through 192 of the DEIR, which includes a full statement of the impact and applicable mitigation measures and is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety. C. Findings Regarding Project Alternatives Through the environmental review process, the City identified the following potential Project alternatives for consideration: Residential Development Only Alternative A residential development only would eliminate the commercial use, and just provide housing. This alternative would assume additional residential development would occur in the southeastern portion of the site where commercial uses are currently proposed. The location of the residential building cannot change due to the Mixed-Use Waterfront designation of the parcel adjacent to the water which allows for residential development within the project site. This alternative would eliminate Impact TRN-2. The mitigation measures required to bring Impact AIR-2, Impact BIO-1, and Impact BIO-2 to a less than significant level would still be required. Therefore, a residential development only alternative was considered but rejected.
