ATTY/RESO.0031/CC RESO CEQA GUIDELINES (901 EL CAMINO REAL) REV: 04-22-25 VR Page 5 of 6 a. The CEQA Consistency Checklist was prepared in accordance with all legal requirements. b. The City Council has reviewed and analyzed the CEQA Consistency Checklist and other information in the entire Record and has considered the information contained therein, including the written and oral comments received at the public hearing on the Project, prior to acting upon or approving the Project. c. Based on substantial evidence in the record, the proposed Project is adequately analyzed and addressed in the previously certified DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR for the purposes of CEQA. The Statement of Overriding Considerations and MMRPs associated with the certification of the DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR address the environmental effects of the Project. Accordingly, with the approval of this Project, all applicable mitigation measures and the Statement of Overriding Considerations are hereby reconfirmed and readopted. d. As indicated in the CEQA Consistency Checklist, 1) the DTPP applies form based code which regulates land development to achieve specific urban form and it does not restrict development density through dwellings units per acre or floor area ratio; 2) the Project is consistent with the DTPP design regulations because the proposed building fits within the allowable development envelope; and, 3) the DTPP Plan-Wide Amendments program SEIR analyzed the increase in maximum development cap resulting in part from redevelopment of 901 El Camino Real; and e. As set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, Subdivisions (a), (b), and (d), for the reasons stated in the Record, the proposed Project is consistent with the General Plan and Downtown Precise Plan which provides the necessary development standards to accommodate the proposed development density. Further, as discussed in the CEQA Consistency Checklist, there are no environmental effects which are peculiar to the Project or its site, nor are there any new significant effects that were not already identified and analyzed in the certified DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR, nor are there any potentially significant off-site impacts or cumulative impacts that were not already identified and analyzed in the certified DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR, nor is there substantial new information which was not known at the time of the certification of the DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR that identifies any significant effects which will have a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the certified DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR. The feasible mitigation measures specified in the DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR have been included in the Project’s Conditions of Approval. f. As set forth in CEQA Guidelines Sections 15168, 15162, and 15163, the proposed Project will not result in any new or more significant environmental effects or require new mitigation measures beyond those identified in the DTPP EIR and DTPP SEIR MMRPs. No new environmental document is required. As a result, pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083.3 and CEQA Guidelines
