Veterans Memorial Senior Center/YMCA Project 11 Addendum #2 City of Redwood City November 2025 require preparation of a lighting plan for the proposed exterior lighting, including cut sheets and a photometric site plan demonstrating that light levels would not spill off the property. This lighting plan would be submitted to the City for review concurrently with the building permit plans to ensure that new light sources from the modified project would not introduce significant glare or light effects that could affect adjacent residences. Based on this discussion, the proposed modifications would not result in any new significant impacts or more severe significant impacts than disclosed in the 2019 EIR or 2022 Addendum. Air Quality, Energy, Greenhouse Gas Emissions 4.2.1 Air Quality Construction Period Emissions The 2019 EIR concluded that construction criteria pollutant emissions would not exceed established thresholds of significance, and they would be further reduced with implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) prescribed by the Bay Area Air District (Air District).4 The 2022 Addendum concluded that the changes to the off-site traffic calming measures would not result in any new significant impacts or more significant impacts than disclosed in the 2019 EIR because the amount of construction equipment usage would decrease compared to the assumptions in the 2019 EIR.5 As discussed in Section 3.0 Proposed Modifications to the Original Project, the modified project would result in an approximately 1,353 square foot increase in building size and an increase of approximately 8,635 cubic yards of soil that would be off-hauled compared to what was analyzed in the original project. However, the overall square footage of new construction in Phase I and Phase II of the modified project would still be below the maximum of 80,000 square feet that was evaluated in the original project. Further, removal of the Valota Road driveway as part of the modified project would result in less construction activity (e.g., grading, paving, etc.) than previously assumed for the original project, as the area originally intended for the Valota Road driveway would remain undisturbed. An updated quantitative analysis was prepared for the modified project to determine whether the changes to the original project would result in new significant impacts or substantially more severe air quality impacts related to construction period emissions and health risk effects than disclosed in the 2019 EIR. The results of that updated quantitative analysis are summarized below and additional details are available in Appendix A. Table 4.2-1 below summarizes the estimated construction criteria air pollutant emissions, including reactive organic gases (ROG), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM), that would occur under the modified project in comparison to those of the original project. 4 City of Redwood City.
