7.A. - Page 48 Redwood City Chapter 4.Environmental Impact Analysis b. Conflict with any applicable land use plan,policy,or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project(including,but not limited to,a general plan,specific plan,local coastal program,or zoning ordinance)adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? No New Impact.The project site is located in the City of Redwood City and is subject to the Redwood City General Plan and other related Redwood City planning documents.According to the Redwood City General Plan Land Use Map,the project site is designated as Commercial-Regional. The Commercial-Regional land use designation allows the development of general retail, commercial services,restaurants,lodging,vehicle sales and service,commercial recreation, professional offices,medical and financial institutions,and other similar business activities. According to the Redwood City Official Zoning Map,the project site is zoned as IR.As stated in Article 17 of the Redwood City Zoning Code,it is the purpose of the IR zoning district"to promote viable industrial areas by providing a district for the location of selected industries,wholesale establishments,specified retail establishments,and heavy commercial uses which can congregate together..." Permitted uses within the IR zoning district include research facilities,manufacturing, assembly,repair operations,and warehouses. Fueling centers are permitted in the IR zone subject to approval of a UP.A UP was approved in 2007 for the 12-station fueling center.The proposed modifications would require a modification to the existing UP to allow for a 20-station fueling center. The proposed modifications would be a continuation of an existing use and do not involve any new land uses.The proposed modifications are permitted under the aforementioned land use designation and within the IR zoning designation with approval of a UP.Therefore,the proposed modifications would not conflict with Redwood City General Plan policies and the zoning designation of the project site. No new impact would occur. c. Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? No New Impact.The project site consists of a fueling center on an existing parking lot within a fully developed urban area.There are no existing or proposed HCPs or NCCPs within the vicinity of the project area.As a result,no new impacts related to HCPs and NCCPs would occur.
