Veterans Memorial Senior Center/YMCA Project 6 Addendum #2 City of Redwood City November 2025 The original project included a total of 222 off-street vehicle parking spaces in the surface parking lot areas to the northwest and southwest of the new YMCA building. Without the Valota Road driveway under the modified project, the surface parking areas would be reconfigured and the overall number of off-street parking spaces available in the surface parking lot would be reduced to 180. To provide additional parking that could be used by visitors to the site, the modified project would add a total of 28 on-street parking stalls on Madison Avenue, nine of which would be parallel parking stalls within the existing right-of-way along the YMCA frontage, and 19 of which would be angled parking stalls within the existing right-of-way along the VMSC frontage. In addition, the modified project would include the restriping of three surface parking areas in the vicinity in Red Morton Park: 1) the surface parking lot adjacent to the Community Activities Building (adding 16 parking stalls), 2) the surface parking lot accessed via Myrtle Street (adding six parking stalls), and 3) the Red Morton parking lot (adding six parking stalls). With the restriping of these three surface parking lots, an additional 28 spaces would be added to the overall parking inventory. See Figure 3.1-1 below for a comparison between the original project and the modified project. 3.1.3 Construction Activities As discussed under Section 2.2 above, the original project assumed that Phase 2 of the project would require excavation and the removal of approximately 1,365 cubic yards of soil during construction activities. Based on updated calculations, the modified project would require the excavation and off haul of approximately 10,000 cubic yards of soil, which would be an increase of approximately 8,635 cubic yards compared to what was analyzed in the original project. Other details such as the proposed diesel-powered equipment and overall duration of construction activities would be similar to what was assumed for the original project. 3.1.4 Off-Site Utility Improvements As discussed in in Section 4.7 below, the 2019 EIR noted that cumulative projects (including the original project) may be required to replace older sanitary sewer lines to reduce rainfall infiltration and reduce the cumulative peak wet weather flow in the utility system. Consistent with this finding, the modified project would make a monetary fair-share contribution to: a) the design and construction of upgrades to the existing sanitary sewer main from the project’s point of connection to King Street, and b) identified improvements in the Redwood City 2023 Sanitary Sewer Capacity Master Plan (i.e., C12, C13, and C3) as a Condition of Approval. All sewer improvements would be installed by the City prior to completion of Phase 2.1 1 These utility improvements would only involve replacement and upsizing of existing sewer pipes in the same location. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301, 15302, and 15303, the City has found installation of these improvements is exempt from further CEQA review because it would involve minor changes to existing facilities with little expansion of use, replacement and reconstruction of existing facilities in the same location for the same purpose, and construction of limited small sewage facilities to serve the project. Accordingly, this Addendum does not discuss potential impacts of these improvements further, and a Notice of Exemption for these improvements will be filed as appropriate. (See, e.g., McCann v. City of San Diego, 70 Cal.App.5th 51 [finding that the city properly determined undergrounding projects to be exempt from CEQA prior to approving final design].)
