57 As a standard condition of project component approval, an additional energy efficiency measure would be project component conformance with the California Water-Efficient Landscape Ordinance (AB 1881) and Model Water Efficiency Landscape Ordinance requirements for any landscape irrigation system, including dripline or other point- source and/or bubbler irrigation systems. Construction and demolition waste would be recycled as required by the City’s Construction and Demolition Debris Diversion Ordinance (C&D Ordinance) and Green Building Ordinance, in accordance with Redwood City Municipal Code Article XI – Recycling and Salvaging of Construction and Demolition Debris. In addition, although petroleum products and electricity would be used during the construction period, their use would be temporary as well as necessary to conduct development activities; therefore, their use would be neither wasteful nor inefficient. The project component would be required to comply with current building codes and standards, as amended by the City and applicable to the project component or portions thereof, including the California Building Code and California Energy Code, which mandate energy-saving and/or energy-efficient materials and practices. As indicated in the project component plans, the building would be 100 percent electric (Plan Sheet PA0.1, 2/2/24). Based on project component commitments to energy-efficient design and materials and its compliance with energy efficiency provisions in State and local plans, potential impacts of the project component related to energy use would be less than significant. The 847 Woodside project component would implement and not conflict with policies under the General Plan and DTPP as well as the regulatory framework that promote energy efficiency, nor would it result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources, as specified in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The proposed component is consistent with the analysis in the Focused GPU EIR because it would not create new impacts or increase impacts and there is no new information of substantial importance for CEQA purposes. CONCLUSION With regards to the issue area of Energy, the following findings can be made: (1) no peculiar impacts to the 847 Woodside project component or its site have been identified, (2) there are no potentially significant effects or off-site and/or cumulative impacts which were not discussed by the Focused GPU EIR, (3) no substantial new information has been identified which results in an impact which is more severe than anticipated by the Focused GPU EIR, and (4) no mitigation measures contained within the Focused GPU EIR would be required because the project component specific impacts would be less than significant. For these reasons, the energy impacts of the proposed project component would be consistent with the impacts identified in the Focused GPU EIR and this project component does not require additional environmental review under CEQA Guidelines section 15183.
