Not Addressed LTS LTS with Mitigation No No No No Documentation: Commercial Component: a. The DTPP (Appendix 1) identifies 47 historic resources and one designated historic district within the DTPP area. The DTPP program EIR (Chapter 7, Cultural and Historic Resources) concluded that there were potential impacts to these resources only for project sites located on or directly adjacent to a historic resource, or within or directly adjacent to a historic district. The EIR concluded this impact to be significant and unavoidable with mitigation. The SEIR concurred that even with Mitigation Measure 7-3 (requiring development within or adjacent to historic districts to be evaluated by a historian), and Mitigation Measures CR-1 (formerly Mitigation Measure 7-2 with clarifying amendments) which requires that, for proposed development on parcels that contain historic resources, the City make a preliminary determination as to whether any discretionary projects would have a potentially significant adverse effect on historic resources, CR-2 (formerly Mitigation Measure 7-4 with clarifying amendments) which requires that proposed development adjacent to historic resources requiring discretionary approval be reviewed by an architect or architectural historian and be conditioned to avoid any substantial adverse changes on adjacent historical resources, and NO-3 (formerly Mitigation Measure 11-3 with clarifying amendments) which imposes conditions of approval on all future projects involving demolition and construction activities in order to reduce ground-borne vibration levels, implementation of the DTPP Plan-Wide Amendments could pose significant and unavoidable impacts on historic resources. The project Commercial Component site is not adjacent or a contributor to the locally designated Main Street Historic District, nor is the project Commercial Component site itself a DTPP-identified historic resource (DTPP p. 30, Historic Resource Preservation Regulations Map; DTPP p. 156, Historic Resources Reconnaissance Survey Map.) Sequoia High School campus, which is a Historic District, located opposite the subject site across El Camino Real, in the Sequoia neighborhood, is identified as a Historic Resource to Be Preserved according to the City’s Historic Resources Reconnaissance Survey Map. Historic Resources Evaluation A historic resources evaluation was prepared for the project component site by PAST Consultants, LLC in February 2024 (Historic Evaluation for 901 El Camino Real Redevelopment, Redwood City, CA: 947 El Camino Real (APN052-351-020) and 999 El Camino Real (APN 052-351-030); February 5, 2024; the “historic resources evaluation”).This historic resources evaluation assessed the project component to determine whether the Commercial Component would have potential impacts on a historic resource. The two existing onsite buildings, one building at 947 El Camino Real and one building at 999 El Camino Real were constructed in 1966 and 1973, respectively, and, as such, are over 50 years old and must be documented, field investigated, and evaluated under federal, State of California, and City of Redwood City historic preservation criteria. The historic resources evaluation determined neither building is eligible for listing under national, State, or Redwood City historic preservation criteria (p. 2). Therefore, the two properties that constitute the project component site are not historically significant, and no ATTY/RESO.0031/CC RESO CEQA GUIDELINES (901 EL CAMINO REAL) REV: 04-22-25 VR Page 54 of 148
