MiG 7.A. - Page 193 City of Redwood City EIR Addendum October 8,2012 Page 3-30 (TDM) program. Due to various identified physical constraints (e.g., right-of-way limitations) and other feasibility factors (some mitigations were considered beyond the scope of a single development project), full mitigation of the roadway system operational impacts listed above to less-than-significant levels was determined in the 2003 EIR to be infeasible; therefore, the project traffic impacts listed above (Impacts 7-1 through 7-6) were determined to be significant and unavoidable. Traffic generated by the current Pete's Harbor project plus the One Marina project "project condition"' would not result in any of the significant impacts identified above (Impacts 7-1 through 7-6) for the 2003 EIR "project condition." All of these 2003 EIR-identified "project condition" impacts would be reduced to a less-than-significant level under the current "project condition." Conclusion. Mitigations 7-1 through 7-6 are no longer required. All these impacts would be less-than-significant. Impacts 7-7 through 7-10 Analysis: Project Impacts on Transit Accessibility, Pedestrian Accessibility, Bicycle Accessibility, and Emergency Access. The 2003 EIR also identified significant impacts resulting from the 2003 project on the following: ■ Transit accessibility (Impact 7-7); ■ Pedestrian accessibility (Impact 7-8); ■ Bicycle accessibility (Impact 7-9); and ■ Project emergency access (Impact 7-10). In order to reduce the above identified impacts to less-than-significant levels, the 2003 EIR recommended incorporation into the project of a bus turnaround (for Impact 7-7), adequate pedestrian sidewalks and paths (for Impact 7-8), and adequate bicycle facilities (for Impact 7-9), and the extension of Blomquist Street over Redwood Creek to the East Bayshore Road/Bair Island Road intersection, which was partially funded at the time (for Impact 7-10). Conclusion. Mitigations 7-7 through 7-9 are no longer required because either: (1) the One Marina project currently under construction will implement the mitigations as applicable to its property (Mitigations 7-7 through 7-9), and (2) the current Pete's Harbor project has incorporated the applicable components into its plans (Mitigations 7-8 and 7-9). Mitigation 7-10 is no longer required for emergency access because combined development of Pete's Harbor and One Marina would total 642 new dwelling units, which is under the conservative threshold of 750 new units. However, the Blomquist Street Extension is assumed to be completed under the Cumulative Conditions (year 2020) traffic scenario and, therefore, was included in the 2003 EIR cumulative traffic impact analysis as well as the cumulative traffic evaluation in this Addendum. 'The "project condition" is defined as roadway system operational conditions under Background Conditions (i.e., existing traffic plus traffic from recently approved or currently under-construction new developments) plus traffic from the proposed project. The 2003 EIR "project condition" included the proposed Marina Shores Village development of both the Pete's Harbor and Peninsula Marina properties. T.•1106951Addenduml3(10695-01).doc
