Impact 8-1: Air Quality (Temporary Construction-Related) Impacts; <br /> 2. Impact 8-2: Operational Emissions Increases; and <br /> C. Historic Resources (Ampex sign, Warnecke plaza and fountains and 425 <br /> Broadway building) Impacts: <br /> 1. Impact 14-1: Historic Resources (Project and Cumulative) Impacts <br /> WHEREAS, the DEIR's Cultural and Historical Resources Chapter analysis <br /> (Impact/Mitigation 14-1) determined that three separate resources related to the Ampex <br /> campus, the Ampex sign, Warnecke plaza and fountain and 425 Broadway building, are <br /> not listed on the National or State Historic Registers or on any historical resource survey <br /> but that they could be determined to have local historic significance even though they <br /> are not currently on a local historical listing. Based on this potential, the EIR analysis <br /> determined that the removal of the three resources could represent potentially <br /> significant unavoidable project and cumulative impacts; and <br /> WHEREAS, CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(a)(4) allows a lead agency to <br /> determine that a resource is a historic resource despite the fact that the resource is not <br /> listed in the California Register of Historical Resources, a local register of historical <br /> resources, or a historical resources survey; and <br /> WHEREAS, on February 9, 2012, the Historic Resources Advisory Committee <br /> (HRAC) held a meeting and made recommendations to the Planning Commission <br /> including recommendations regarding contact with the Ampex campus architect and <br /> regarding the treatment of the three separate resources related to the Ampex campus: <br /> the Ampex sign, Warnecke plaza and fountain and 425 Broadway building; and <br /> WHEREAS, on February 21, 2012, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed <br /> public hearing and received public testimony on the DEIR. The City received a number <br /> of letters and emails from the public, responsible agencies, and interested parties and <br /> recommendations from the HRAC, as noted above, during and after the DEIR public <br /> review period; and <br /> WHEREAS, on April 12, 2012, the HRAC provided an update regarding contact <br /> with the Ampex campus architect and clarification of their prior recommendation to the <br /> Planning Commission that the Ampex sign, Warnecke fountain and plaza, and the 425 <br /> Broadway building are historic resources of aesthetic, educational, cultural, and <br /> ATTY/RES0.2901/STANFORD EIR CERTIFICATION <br /> REV:08-29-13 VR <br /> Page 4 of 56 <br />
