A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA,
CERTIFYING FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT REPORT EA -084 ADOPTING A
S T A T E M E N T OF O V E R R I D I N G
CONSIDERATIONS, APPROVING AND
ADOPTING AN AMENDMENT TO THE LAND
USE ELEMENT AND AN AMENDMENT TO THE
CIRCULATION ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL
PLAN, AND APPROVING TENTATIVE PARCEL
MAP NO. 17158 (SUBDIVISION 85 -5)
WITH CONDITIONS FOR AN OFFICE
PROJECT AT 2301 -2381 ROSECRANS
AVENUE AND 810 -820 S. DOUGLAS STREET
WITHIN SAID CITY.
WHEREAS, an application has been received from
Continental Development Corporation for General Plan
Amendments, Precise Plan 85 -3 and Subdivision 85 -5
(Tentative Parcel Map 17158) in order to permit a
proposed 1,100,000 sq. ft. development for general
office and research and development uses with required
parking for 3,667 vehicles, on a 14.7 -acre M -2 (Heavy
Manufacturing) zoned site at 2301 -2381 Rosecrans and
810 -820 South Douglas Street, a legal description of
which is on file in the Planning Department; and
WHEREAS, Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) EA -084
for said application has been prepared in compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA");
and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of
El Segundo, after a public hearing duly held on the
Draft EIR and the proposed project, has adopted its
Resolution No. 2150, recommending to the City Council
the certification of the Environmental Impact Report,
adoption of a statement of overriding considerations as
46 required under the California Environmental Quality Act,
1
approval and adoption of General Plan Amendments,
approval of Tentative Parcel Map No. 17158 (Subdivision
85 -5), with conditions; and approval of Precise Plan
No. 85 -5 with conditions; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a duly noticed public
hearing on July 15, 1986, in the time, form and manner
prescribed by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of
E1 Segundo, California, does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council hereby certifies that the
Final Environmental Impact Report ( "EIR") has been
completed in compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA "), and that the Final
EIR was presented to the City Council, and the City
Council reviewed and considered the information
contained in the Final EIR prior to approving the
General Plan Amendments, Precise Plan and the Parcel
Map.
SECTION 2. The Final EIR identifies potential
significant adverse environmental impacts in the areas
of traffic, circulation and pedestrian safety, air
quality, public services, zoning and General Plan
consistency, light and glare and cumulative impacts on
traffic, air quality, noise, public services, utilities
and energy consumption. Changes, alterations or project
features are incorporated into the project which will
completely or partially mitigate potential impacts, as
outlined in the below conditions and mitigation
measures. There are no significant impacts on fish,
wildlife or their habitat.
2
3
SECTION 3. The project traffic and related air quality
impacts will not be mitigated to an insignificant level
even with inclusion of the identified feasible
mitigation measures. The City Council hereby finds that
the unavoidable adverse risks are outweighed by the
project benefits which include fulfillment of long -term
social and economic goals to replace and upgrade heavy
!,
industry and obsolete buildings; providing high - quality
planned developments with upgraded landscaping,
underground utilities, open space, pedestrian plazas and
quality design at a major entrance to the City in
furtherance of land use and aesthetic goals; providing
construction and long -term employment opportunities;
contributing to improvement of the traffic circulation
system; and contributing to a logical extension of the
type of land use and development existing and planned in
the project vicinity.
3
SECTION 4. The Final EIR identifies project
alternatives which would reduce environmental effects;
however, the City Council hereby finds that these are
infeasible for economic, social and other
considerations. The "no project" alternative would not
implement the long -term land use and aesthetic
objectives of replacing heavy industry and obsolete
!,
buildings with clean, light, well - planned development,
and would result in lost construction and permanent
employment opportunities. The "development under
existing zoning" alternative would result in increased
heavy industrial development with impacts on stationary
noise, air quality and aesthetics. The alternative
would not achieve long -term objectives for replacing
heavy industrial uses with clean, light, technically-
oriented land uses and would not be consistent with
surrounding development and planned land use. The
3
0
"lower intensity office development" alternative would
not provide the necessary economic basis to permit
funding and construction of significant traffic
mitigation improvements which are necessary for local
and regional benefit even in the absence of the project.
The necessary capital improvements in the project
vicinity exceed $5 million in cost and cannot be
supported in the absence of redevelopment. The project
will contribute a significant share to the funding of
the Douglas Street extension which is a recommended
regional improvement in the Circulation Element.
SECTION 5. Two major capital projects could improve
traffic circulation, but the City Council hereby finds
implementation is not within the jurisdiction of the
City of El Segundo. The light rail transit line planned
adjacent to the site is the responsibility of the County
Transportation Commission. Reconstruction of the
Rosecrans /Aviation bridge will involve multi -
jurisdictional agreements and cooperation of the
affected railroad.
0 SECTION 6. The Final EIR identifies the construction of
a Douglas Street extension as a mitigation measure for
traffic circulation and air quality impacts. The City
Council hereby finds that there are certain economic and
other considerations which make infeasible a requirement
that Douglas Street be constructed prior to issuance of
building permits for project Phases I, II and III -A;
however, construction will be required prior to
Phase III -B. Construction of the extension is
anticipated to cost $3 -5 million and requires
coordination of the City, the Public Utilities
Commission, and the affected railroad. For this reason,
construction will take several years to complete and
4
time frames cannot be reasonably assured. These factors
would make the project financing infeasible and would in
effect constitute a project denial, if required prior to
issuance of building permits. The project will,
however, be required to contribute substantial funding
toward construction of the Douglas Street extension and
other regional transportation improvements, and to
implement trip reduction measures as part of a project
transportation systems management plan.
SECTION 7. The proposed map, design and improvements of
the Subdivision are consistent with the General Plan as
amended and with Precise Plan 85 -3. The proposed land
uses, design standards and improvements are consistent
with long -term General Plan objectives for replacing
heavy industry with clean, quiet, well - planned high
development.
SECTION 8.
The site is physically suitable for the
proposed type and density of development. The site is
level and is not located in an area of unstable
topography, flood hazards, or fault rupture study zone.
SECTION 9. The design of the Subdivision and
improvements are not likely to cause serious public
health problems. The project is required to be
connected to the County Sanitation District sanitary
sewer system and will be directed to the District's
Carson sewage treatment plant, which has sufficient
capacity to serve the project waste water flow.
SECTION 10. The Subdivision will not affect any public
easements for access through or use of property within
the Subdivision.
5
SECTION 11. The design of the subdivision provides, to
the extent feasible, for future passive natural heating
or cooling opportunities by including provision of
southern exposure along Rosecrans Avenue.
SECTION 12. In view of the above facts and findings,
the City Council hereby approves and adopts an amendment
to the Land Use Element of the General Plan from Heavy
Industry designation to Commercial Manufacturing
designation; and approves and adopts an amendment to the
Circulation Element to include the proposed development
10 in the land use projections and traffic analyses.
SECTION 13. The City Council hereby approves Tentative
Parcel Map No. 17158 (Subdivision 85 -5) subject to the
