This Resolution and its findings are made based upon the testimony and evidence presented to the Council at its February 15, 2005 hearing including, without limitation, the staff report submitted by the Planning and Building Safety Department SECTION 2 Factual Findings The City Council finds that the following facts exist A The approximately 110 -acre irregularly shaped subject property is located in the southern portion of the City of El Segundo The site is comprised of 13 separate parcels of varying sizes, ranging from 1 8 acres to 29 2 acres The entire subject property is roughly bounded by Hughes Way to the north, Douglas Street to the east, Rosecrans Avenue to the south, and Sepulveda Boulevard to the west B The majority of the site was historically devoted to industrial chemical manufacturing facilities Honeywell International, Inc and General Chemical, and their predecessors in interest, had operational facilities on the site until 2003 At that time the facilities were closed and demolished for resale and reuse Remediation activities for on -site soil contamination has also commenced on the Honeywell International property. -2- C A 7 -acre portion of the site along Rosecrans Avenue is currently used by Air Products Inc for the production of industrial gases Air Products also owns an 8 9 -acre vacant parcel of land in the interior of the project site D Other current uses of the project site include a lumber yard operated by Learned Lumber on land leased from the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) at the east end of the project site Foundation remains from a brass foundry building are located in the north east end of the project site on a portion of an 11 -acre property owned by H Kramer & Company Additionally, the elevated Metro Green Line light rail traverses the property in a north -south alignment near the east end of the project site E The proposed redesignation and rezoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would change the General Plan land use designation of approximately 85 8 gross acres of the 110 -acre subject property to a new Commercial Center designation and rezone the area to a new Commercial Center (C -4) Zone F As applied to the whole of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, the proposed Commercial Center land use designation and C -4 zoning would permit up to 850,000 square feet of commercial shopping center development within approximately 85 8 -acre site The proposed FAR for the Commercial Center land use designation is 02751. G The existing lumber distribution use (Learned Lumber) that is presently located within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would also retain its current Light Industrial (M -1) zoning classification The land on which the lumber yard sits is expected to be reconfigured in the future to accommodate the realignment of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks It is anticipated that the size of the lumber yard will remain comparable to today H As part of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning the Air Products facility may also relocate to a new smaller facility on the portion of the project site that will remain zoned Heavy Industrial (M -2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project anticipates possible expansion of an existing recreational vehicle (RV) storage facility located on H Kramer & Company property within the boundaries of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project area J The applicants are not requesting entitlements for 66 7 gross acres that are part of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, but not included with the proposed Plaza El Segundo development The Program DEIR -3- identifies the additional environmental evaluation required for developing those 66.7 acres K The proposed Plaza El Segundo would be constructed on approximately 43 3 gross acres within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and would implement the new C -4 zoning on that portion of the site The proposed Plaza El Segundo would be located on approximately 37 3 gross acres located north of the Union Pacific Railroad tracks and approximately 4 7 gross acres located immediately at the northeast corner of Sepulveda Boulevard and Rosecrans Avenue L The proposed Plaza El Segundo project is a shopping center of up to 425,000 square feet The shopping center would contain large retail stores, specialty retail, and other uses which could include a spa, and a variety of sit -down restaurants and limited fast food restaurants The types of retail tenant categories could include a Whole Foods grocery store, home improvement, department store, electronics and appliances, home furnishings, pet supply, books, soft goods and sporting goods M The proposed shopping center would consist of several one- and two - story buildings with a maximum height of 65 feet. All development within the proposed Plaza El Segundo would conform to the C-4 development standards N The proposed FAR for this development would be 0 2756 1 based on 425,000 square feet of development on 38 1 net acres The proposed subdivision of the Plaza El Segundo site would include 20 parcels These parcels would range from 0.5 to 5 5 acres in size. As a result, FARs on individual parcels may range from approximately 0 00 1 to 0 49 1 O. Under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, the standards of the proposed C -4 zone would be modified to limit the mix of land uses permitted within the 70.8 net acre portion of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that would be redesignated in the General Plan for Commercial Center use and rezoned to Commercial Center (C-4) in order to reduce total traffic generation from the Site Total permitted square footage within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would remain the same (850,000 total square feet), but the mix of uses would be limited to the following 590,000 square feet of shopping center, 185,000 square feet of large scale retail, 50,000 square feet of grocery store, 10,000 square feet of fast food restaurants, and 15,000 square feet of sit -down restaurants Total traffic generation under this alternative would be reduced by approximately 11 7% in the p m peak hour and approximately 8 8% on a daily basis All other components of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, including the construction of new roadways, relocation of -4- railroad rights -of -way, and stormwater retention basin would remain the same as the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning under this alternative P Under the Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, the Plaza El Segundo Development site boundaries and total proposed square footage would remain the same (425,000 square feet), but the mix of uses within the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be modified to result in an approximately 17% reduction in p m peak hour traffic generation and an approximately 13% reduction in daily traffic generation The mix of uses that would be contained within the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development under the Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would include 165,000 square feet of shopping center, 185,000 square feet of large scale retail, a 50,000 square -foot grocery store, 10,000 square feet of fast food restaurants, and 15,000 square feet of sit -down restaurants The proposed land uses and density would be within the requirements of the proposed C -4 zone All other components of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, including the construction of new roadways (Park Place east of Sepulveda Boulevard and Allied Way within the Plaza El Segundo Development site) and storm water retention basin would remain the same as the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development under this alternative Q The proposed C -4 Zone would provide for the transfer of density rights within the development area to insure that the overall density of the site is consistent with the C-4 Zoning Any donor parcels for FAR purposes will have covenants recorded stating the maximum FAR permitted on the parcel R The full bwldout of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning includes an extension of Park Place (a four -lane east -west street) from its current terminus at Nash Street that would connect to Sepulveda Boulevard The roadway extension would include a signalized intersection at Sepulveda Boulevard south of Hughes Way The roadway would also include a grade separation structure to allow the roadway to pass beneath the Union Pacific Railroad and realigned Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad tracks that bisect the project site S Primary ingress and egress to the proposed Plaza El Segundo would be provided from Sepulveda Boulevard via a new traffic signal halfway between Hughes Way and Rosecrans Avenue The eastern leg of this intersection will be served by the new east -west Park Place roadway extension, constructed to El Segundo roadway standards consistent with the adopted Circulation Element T A second new roadway extension would be constructed to roadway standards consistent with the Circulation Element of the City's General -5- Plan in a north -south alignment to connect the new segment of Park Place to Hughes Way via Allied Way, which presently terminates at the northern boundary of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site U The Plaza El Segundo portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is proposed to be constructed as one phase Construction is expected to commence in 2005 and to be completed in 2007 V An interim on -site stormwater retention pond would be constructed within the proposed Plaza El Segundo site to retain storm water runoff Portions of an existing 42 -inch reclaimed water line that crosses the site from north to south approximately 5 to 7 feet below the existing ground surface may be relocated The proposed Plaza El Segundo would connect into the existing water and sewer lines W Parking for the Plaza El Segundo portion of the Sepulveda/ Rosecrans Site Rezoning is proposed to be located in surface parking lots that will surround the proposed shopping center buildings Based on a total of 425,000 square feet, including 400,000 square feet of commercial /retail space and 25,000 square feet of restaurant floor area in the Plaza El Segundo development as described in the Environmental Impact Report, 1,363 parking spaces are required The developer proposes to provide 2,164 parking spaces, which exceeds the City's parking requirements SECTION 3 Environmental Assessment The City Council makes the following environmental findings A The Draft EIR was completed in compliance with CEQA, Guidelines § 15090 A Program /Project Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) was prepared for this protect pursuant to the requirements of CEQA A Notice of Preparation of the Draft EIR was prepared and circulated for public review from November 26, 2003 to December 26, 2003 A Revised Notice of Preparation was also prepared and circulated for public review from March 25, 2004 to April 30, 2004. The public review and comment period for the Draft EIR began on October 5, 2004 and ended on November 19, 2004 A Notice of Completion was filed with the State Clearinghouse on October 5, 2004, B The City received twenty -two comment letters on the DEIR from public agencies, groups and individuals, C A Final Environmental Impact Report ( "FEIR ") was prepared, which includes the DEIR, comments regarding the DEIR and written responses to such comments, a summary of changes to the DEIR, and all technical appendices, M D The FEIR for the proposed Project, entitled 'Report Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Final Environmental Impact Report", prepared by Christopher A Joseph and Associates under contract to the City and under the supervision of the City Planning and Building Safety Department on January 7, 2005 (State Clearinghouse No 2003121037), is incorporated by reference; E The City, acting as lead agency, has reviewed and edited as necessary the Draft EIR and the Final EIR to reflect its own independent judgment to the extent of its ability, including reliance on City technical personnel from other departments as well as professional consultants retained by the City in order to provide technical advice an assistance in evaluating environmental impacts associated with the Project, F Pursuant to Public Resources Code § 210821(c)(3), the City Council independently reviewed and analyzed the FEIR Based upon that review and analysis, and recommendations made by the City's Planning Agency as set forth in Planning Commission Resolution No 2575, the City Council finds the FEIR is an accurate and complete statement of the potential environmental impacts resulting from the Project The FEIR reflects the City's independent judgment as lead agency, G Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15091, any changes or alterations required for the Project, or incorporated into the Project, which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect are identified for the FEIR Any potential changes or alterations that may be made to the proposed mitigation measures are addressed and analyzed in the FEIR, H The DEIR and FEIR were made available for public review and comment in the time and manner prescribed by CEQA, The FEIR generally concluded that, with mitigation, the Project would not have a significant, adverse effect on the environment Those mitigation measures are desirable and feasible, J The FEIR also identified three project- related environmental impacts that cannot be mitigated i Traffic impacts at several intersections, u Operational and temporary construction related air quality impacts, and ui Temporary construction related noise impacts 7- K The FEIR also identified three cumulative environmental impacts that cannot be mitigated. i Solid waste impacts, n Population and housing impacts, and ui Regional traffic impacts L Based upon a review of all relevant matters in the record, the City Council finds that the proposed construction of planned roadway and intersection improvements will improve the overall circulation system of the City and reduce long -term air quality impacts Therefore, the temporary construction impacts are offset by the long -term benefits, M In accordance with § 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines, the record on which the City Council's findings are based is located at the Planning and Building Safety Department, City of El Segundo, 350 Main Street, El Segundo, California 90245 The custodian of records is the Director of Planning and Budding Safety, N There is no evidence that the project will have the potential for an adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat on which the wildlife depends, because the project is in a built -out urban environment, O The City reviewed the FEIR for the project and considered the public record on the project, including, without limitation, the following 1 Staff reports prepared by the Planning and Budding Safety Department and the DEIR and FEIR prepared by Christopher A Joseph & Associates for the City, 2 Staff presentations at public hearings and meetings, 3 All applicable regulations and codes; 4 Public comments, both written and oral, received and /or submitted at or prior to the public hearings and meetings, supporting or opposing the proposed project, and, 5 All related documents received and /or submitted at or before the public hearings, P Because of the facts identified in this Resolution, specifically the creation of significant unavoidable environmental impacts as described above, the FEIR found that a Statement of Overriding Considerations would be 12 required in order for the project to be approved SECTION 4 General Plan The proposed project conforms with the City's General Plan as follows A The General Plan contains a number of relevant Goals, Objectives, and Policies in the Economic Development Element The goal of Objective ED1 -1 is building "support and cooperation among the City of El Segundo and its businesses and residential communities for the mutual benefits derived from the maintenance and expansion of El Segundo's economic base " The benefits of the development will be shared and supported by all constituencies in the City The development will provide significant fiscal benefit to the City by generating additional business license and sales tax revenue for the City's General Fund B According to Policy ED1 -1.2, long -run efforts for economic development should focus on "diversification of El Segundo's economic base in order to meet quality of life goals " The project will add to the diversification of the economic base in the City by providing for a new larger format retail uses that do not currently exist in the City Therefore, these uses will meet quality of life goals by benefiting the residential and business communities with more diverse retail uses not currently available in the City. C Objective ED1 -2 also directs diversification of the economic base "on targeted industries that meet the City's criteria for job creation, growth potential, fiscal impact and fit with local resources." The City's Economic Development Advisory Council (EDAC) prepared a list of targeted industries, which was approved by the City Council These industries are eligible for certain financial incentives because they meet the criteria described in Objective ED1 -2 The retail and restaurant uses would be on the list of targeted industries that the City is recruiting in order to meet its diversification efforts Therefore, the proposed project does meet the diversification criteria established in the General Plan, by the EDAC, and the City Council D Due to the City's tax structure, a significant portion of the fiscal benefit derived from most proposed development would be attributed to the number of employees in a new development The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is proposed to generate approximately 1,904 full time jobs in El Segundo when fully developed Of these, approximately 952 jobs would be more immediately generated by the development of the Plaza El Segundo portion of the development Currently there is virtually no permanent employment on the Plaza El Segundo site and limited employment on the Air Products and Learned Lumber sites Therefore, the project meets the job creation Objective (ED1 -2) in the General Plan M E Policies ED1 -2 1 and ED1 -2 2, both seek to promote land uses, which improve the City's retail and commercial tax base The stated purpose of the Commercial Center Land Use Designation is to provide for retail and other commercial services which provide a fiscal benefit to the City The Fiscal Impact Analysis for the Plaza El Segundo development concluded that the project could generate an estimated annual net fiscal benefit (project revenue versus City costs) ranging from approximately $1,082,049 to $1,611,424 in the first year operation rising to a range of $1,307,922 to $1,958,987 in the eighth year of operation F The proposed project meets the City's policy of seeking balance between enhanced economic development and available resources and infrastructure capacity (Policies ED1 -2.3 and LU7 -1 2). As adequate resources are currently available within the City to serve the proposed project or will be developed as part of the project, as supported by the Draft EIR, a substantial new commitment of resources or infrastructure is not required The project also proposes several roadway improvements to ensure that the project would not overburden the existing roadway infrastructure Based on this, the proposed project is consistent with Policy ED1 -2 3 G Implementation of the proposed project will meet relevant goals and policies with regard to the Land Use Element The project will help the tax base through the development of new commercial uses without adversely affecting the viability of downtown (Goal LU4). The types of products and services expected to be provided for the most part are not already available in El Segundo The Plaza El Segundo portion of the development is likely to include electronics goods, a department store, home furnishings, pet supplies and other merchandise in stores which due to their size will be able to provide a different range of products than the smaller stores in downtown H Objective LU4 -1 encourages high quality retail facilities in proximity to major employment centers The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is immediately adjacent to the 2,000,000 square -foot Continental Park office development, the 2,000,000 square -foot Raytheon campus and other office buildings along the Rosecrans Avenue commercial corridor The proposed project will provide additional services to these employment centers The project will be conditioned to require maintenance and permanent upkeep on all the landscaping developed in conjunction with the project as required by Policy LU4 -1 1 J Any development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be required to meet all health and safety and environmental regulations and -10- would be built to meet all current seismic safety standards, as overseen by the City of El Segundo's Building Safety Division. The appropriate regulatory agencies, including the Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) would be required to approve remediation of the existing soil and water contamination on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (Policy LU4 -1 2 and Policy LU4 -1 4) K The redesignation and rezoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would allow for the productive reuse of an area that was previously and is currently utilized, on a limited basis, for chemical manufacturing and industrial uses Any proposed development would comply with all the zoning regulations and development standards for the C-4 Zone (Policy LU4 -2 1) L Although the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is not located within a quarter -mile of a Green Line Station, two are located within relatively close proximity The Douglas /Rosecrans Station is located approximately 0 4 miles east and El Segundo /Nash Station is located approximately 0 5 miles north (Policy LU4-4 4) which will help encourage transit ridership to the project M. The redesignation and rezoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would allow for the development for a blighted former industrial /chemical use area into a new shopping /retail opportunity for the surrounding area This redevelopment would occur through the combined efforts of the City of El Segundo and private applicants and would conform to the new C -4 development standards (Objective LU5 -3) N The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is only partially served by water and sewer lines Additional facilities will be installed as development is approved on a project by project basis (Policy LU7 -1 2) O As development on the site is approved, stormwater retention basin(s) would be required to contain the stormwater runoff The size of these basin(s) would depend on the size of the individual developments and would be determined through completing a hydrology study (Policy LU7 - 1 4) P All new on -site utilities required for development(s) on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site will be placed underground with the construction of the individual project (Policy LU7 -2 3) Q Landscaping, in compliance with the development standards for the Commercial Center (C -4) Zone, would be required for any development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (Policy 7 -2 5) -11- R The proposed protect will be required to have strategic safety plans and a fire life safety plan in place (Policy LU 7 -1 1 and Policy LU 7-12) All on- site utilities will be placed underground (Policy LU7 -2.3) S The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning will include the construction of two new roadways that are included in the 2004 Circulation Element update Master Plan of Streets The extension of Park Place and Allied Way will be built to the standards contained in the General Plan (Policy C1 -1 2, Policy C1 -1 4, and Policy C1 -1 11) T Access to development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be provided from Sepulveda Boulevard and Rosecrans Avenue Additional access will be provided from Allied Way and potentially from a road connecting Sepulveda Boulevard with Nash Street via Park Place This would allow emergency vehicle access to the site from all four sides of the subject property (Policy C1 -1 10) U Any new roadway links proposed for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be constructed in accordance with the City of El Segundo roadway standards (Policy C1 -1 10 and Policy C1 -1 11) V The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning will include the widening of Sepulveda Boulevard on the east side of the street to provide acceleration and deceleration lanes to serve the project The developer will dedicate property for the lane widening (Policy C1 -1 14). W The Traffic Study for the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development was conducted in June 2004 This traffic study analyzed the potential traffic related impacts associated with the full buildout of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site under the new C -4 Zone and recommended mitigation measures as required by Policy C1 -1 14 X The names of Park Place and Allied Way will be retained for the extensions of the two streets ensuring uniformity of street naming on a continuous roadway link (Policy C1- 1.18). Y Future development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would include landscaping, internal walkways and other amenities (e g , pedestrian benches, gathering places, etc) which would facilitate pedestrian movements and ensure that any future uses were accessible and visitor friendly (Policy C2 -1.3) Z Future development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would incorporate sidewalks along project boundaries and any new roadways (Policy C2 -1 4) -12- AA The Plaza El Segundo development will have sidewalks around the perimeter and other internal pedestrian walkways with linkages to surrounding properties and public transit stops (Policies C2 -1 3, C2 -1 6, and C2 -3 3) BB While future development projects on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, other than the Plaza El Segundo Development, are currently unknown, most projects of this type provide on -site amenities such as internal bicycle lanes or pathways that lead to the adjacent roadway system, bicycle racks or lockers that are distributed throughout the site and on -site shower facilities and clothes lockers for employees It is therefore, assumed that future developments on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would provide these types of amenities (Policy C2-22) The Plaza El Segundo development will be required to provide bicycle racks and /or bicycle lockers that are distributed throughout the site CC The proposed project will adhere to any applicable regulations regarding preferential parking areas or promotion of ride share (Policy C2 -5 1) The proposed project will provide sufficient on -site parking and loading (Policy C3 -2 1 and C1 -3 2) as required by the El Segundo Municipal Code DD Parking would be provided on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site in accordance with the City of El Segundo's parking requirements for the Commercial Center (C-4) Zone (Policy C3 -2 1) EE Policy C3 -1.1 requires all project- related transportation impacts to be mitigated, where feasible, by the developer The traffic impact study identified a number of intersections in the City that would require mitigation and identified mitigation measures to address the traffic impacts However, because two of the proposed mitigation measures are infeasible due to right -of -way constraints, not all traffic impacts can be mitigated to an insignificant level. In order for the City Council to approve the project with significant impacts, the City Council must adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations finding that there are positive aspects of the project, that when taken as a whole, outweigh the unavoidable negative environmental impacts FF Implementation of the proposed project will meet the policies of the City's Open Space and Recreation Element as the Development Agreement includes a contribution by the developer to the City to assist the City in developing and improving the recreational aquatics facilities in the City This would help potentially expand the recreational opportunities for residents and employees in the City (Goal OS1, Objective OS1 -1, and Objective OS1 -3) -13- GG The construction of plumbing to accommodate the use of reclaimed water for irrigation systems, when available, and the application of the City's Water Conservation in Landscape regulations (Title 10- Chapter 2 of the ESMC), as required by mitigation measures M 2 -4, M2 5, M2 6, M 2 -10, M2 -13, and M2 -16 and Condition of Approval No 8, would be consistent with and further Policies CN2 -5, CN2 -7, CN2 -12. HH All development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, including the Plaza El Segundo development, would be required to include a comprehensive and coherent design for the development, including landscaping and amenities, in order to improve the existing aesthetic appearance of the site (Policy CN2 -7) II All development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, including the Plaza El Segundo development, would be required to include facilities capable of holding stormwater runoff resulting from the development Additionally, reclaimed water would be used to the extent possible in the irrigation of the landscaping (Policy CN2 -11) JJ All development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be required to utilize reclaimed water for landscaping to the extent feasible (Policy CN2 -12) KK The project would provide a comprehensive and coordinated design of the entire project site, including landscape amenities to substantially improve the aesthetic appearance of the site and the surrounding area as encouraged by Policy CN5 -6 LL The project has identified and is currently under Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) orders to remediate sod and ground water contamination as contemplated by Goal CN3 and Policy CN3 -2 to protect groundwater from contamination MM The implementation of transportation demand management programs, as required by Mitigation Measure L -8 (bike, ndeshare matching, and transit options), and as required by Chapters 15 -16 and 15 -17 of the El Segundo Municipal Code will demonstrate compliance with air quality objectives to encourage alternative commuting strategies (AQ1 -1), reduce vehicle trips (AQ3 -1 1, AQ3 -1 2), and promote non - motorized transportation (AQ4 -1 1) NN Approximately $250,000 in Traffic Impact Mitigation Fees based upon current applicable fees (and potentially additional fees if the City amends its current Traffic Mitigation Fees) and over $5,000,000 in costs for off -site traffic mitigation measures must be paid to the City to offset development -14- impacts (AQ5 -12) related to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development project 00 The protect will implement a number of traffic improvements, as required by mitigation measures L -1, L -3, L -4, L -5, L -7, L -8, L -9, L -10, L -11, L -13, L -15, L -17, L -18 and L -19 which will improve traffic flow (Policy AQ 7 -1 1, AQ 7 -2 1) PP Mitigation measure M 5 -1 provides that the proposed project will incorporate energy conservation devices (i e , motion - sensitive light activation switches, etc ) consistent with City (Policy AQ12 -1 2) QQ.

Public Resources Code § 21081 and CEQA Guidelines § 15091 require the City, before approving a project, to identify significant impacts of the protect and, if significant impacts are identified, make one or more of three allowable findings based upon substantial evidence in the record for each significant impact A The first allowable finding is that "changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the Project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR" (CEQA Guidelines § 15091(a)(1)) B The second allowable finding is that "such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency" (CEQA Guidelines § 15091(a)(2)) C The third allowable finding is that "specific economic, social, or other considerations make unfeasible the mitigation measures or Project alternatives identified in the Final EIR" (CEQA Guidelines § 15091(a)(3)) II. FINDINGS REGARDING THE POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OF THE PROJECT. A. Potential Impacts Found to be Insignificant by the Initial Study. The Initial Study identified the following environmental effects as not potentially significant Accordingly, the City Council finds that the Initial Study, the FEIR, and the record of proceedings for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative Development project with respect to the areas listed below 1 Agricultural Resources 2 Mineral Resources B Although the Initial Study identified the following environmental effects as potentially significant, the City Council finds that the Initial Study, the FEIR, and the record of proceedings in this matter do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Project with respect to the areas listed below for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative 1 Aesthetics a) Facts /Effects (1) Scenic Vista The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site was previously developed with a variety of industrial and chemical manufacturing uses, which are currently in various stages of demolition and site remediation Two industrial uses (Air Products and Learned Lumber) are currently active within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site An industrial gas production facility and RV storage area would be permitted under the proposed C -4 zoning, as would continuation of the existing lumber distribution facility use in its current location (2) Scenic Vista The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is located in an urbanized area, with no prominent natural visual features or other attributes that would qualify the site or project vicinity as scenic Buildings in the vicinity of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site range in height from one story to approximately ten stories In addition, there are no scenic highways or corridors in the protect area Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza Del Segundo Protect would not result in a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista (3) Scenic Resources While the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site does contain areas of vegetation, it does not contain any scenic resources such as trees, rock outcroppings, or historic buildings that could be affected by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza Del Segundo Protect Additionally, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is not located within a State or County designated scenic highway The closest highways to the protect site are California Highway No 1 (Sepulveda Boulevard), the Century Freeway (1 -105), and the San Diego Freeway (1 -405), none of which are designated as scenic highways in the vicinity of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza Del Segundo Protect would not substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway (4) Shade /Shadow There are no sensitive uses (e g , residences) immediately adjacent to the project site Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza Del 2 Segundo Project would not result in any significant shade /shadow impacts b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning or Plaza El Segundo Development C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project with respect to Aesthetics 2 Air Quality a) Facts /Effects (1) Objectionable Odors Construction and operation activities associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development are not likely to produce objectionable odors Most objectionable odors are typically associated with industrial projects involving the use of chemicals, solvents, petroleum products, and other strong smelling elements used in manufacturing processes, as well as sewage treatment facilities and landfills These types of uses would not be allowed under the new Commercial (C-4) zoning and the proposed Plaza Eel Segundo does not include any of these types of uses (2) Objectionable Odors An industrial gas production facility would be permitted within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site under the proposed C -4 zoning, as would continuation of the existing lumber distribution facility use in its current location However, these uses do not generate objectionable odors, While the previous uses on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site included chemical manufacturing processes, remediation of conditions resulting from these processes would not generate odors (3) Objectionable Odors The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would include a variety of fast food and sit -down type restaurants which may produce odors as a result of cooking processes However, these odors would be minimized through the various permitting processes required for restaurants No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Project b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR

uses that could directly increase the population within the City of El Segundo and increase existing demands for public schools However, the potential indirect population increase from the new jobs created by the protect may increase existing demands for public schools The protect site is located in the Wiseburn Elementary School District and the Centinela Valley School District It is anticipated that full development (850,000 square feet) of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would generate approximately 25 students (see Table 1) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would account for 12 of the 25 students As seen in Table 1 of the Revised Initial Study, very few students would be generated by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development The number of students generated would constitute a less than significant impact on the schools Payment of required school impact fees to the Wiseburn and Centmela Valley School Districts would ensure that there are no impacts to public schools from the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development (2) Libraries The City of El Segundo has one main library located at 111 W Manposa Avenue No residential uses are proposed as part of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza Ell Segundo Development would not result in a direct increase in library use as a result of new city residents A slight increase in use may occur as a result of new jobs, but the increase is anticipated to be less than significant and no new or expanded library facilities would be required Additionally, developers within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be required to pay a City library service mitigation fee of $0 03 per square foot of development Impacts would be less than significant b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FOR and

Development with respect to public services Recreation a) Facts /Effects (1) Parks No residential uses would be permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Therefore, no increase in the City's permanent population would be anticipated and no direct impacts to parks and recreation facilities would occur The proposed new General Plan designation and rezoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would result in increased employment of approximately 1,904 persons This increase in employment could result in an indirect increase in demand for recreation and parks services A potential indirect impact to parks and recreation may occur as a result of employees of the protect utilizing existing facilities However, employees typically do not enjoy long periods of time during work hours to make use of park or recreational facilities (1) Parks Many of the employees from the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and Plaza El Segundo Development are likely to be residents of El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, and other nearby communities that currently make use of the area parks and recreational facilities Therefore, the increase in employment as a result of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would not generate sufficient demand to result in the need for new or physically altered facilities or cause substantial physical deterioration of existing facilities to occur or be accelerated Impacts to recreation facilities associated with the proposed Sepulveda/Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would be less than significant b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to recreation Transportation and Circulation a) Facts /Effects 12 (1) Air Traffic Patterns Due to the nature and scope of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development, implementation of the project would not have the potential to result in a change in air traffic patterns at LAX or any other airport in the area No impact is anticipated (2) Emergency Access With full development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be accessible from Sepulveda Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue, Park Place, and Allied Way The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be accessible to emergency vehicles from Sepulveda Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue and Allied Way This would provide emergency access to the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site from all directions The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would be required to comply with all applicable Fire Department and Public Works Department regulations regarding emergency access and evacuation With adherence to City regulations, impacts would be less than significant b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to transportation and circulation 14 Utilities and Service Systems a) Facts /Effects (1) Wastewater Treatment Wastewater generated by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would be of similar quality to that generated by other commercial projects, for which wastewater is treated by standard (primary, secondary, and tertiary) treatment processes Improvements associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would comply with all applicable wastewater treatment requirements of the Regional Water Quality Control Board The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would not dispose of industrial wastes into the wastewater system 13 (2) Solid Waste Regulations Disposal of solid waste generated by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development construction and operation phases will be subject to the requirements of applicable federal, state, and local statutes and regulations as enforced by the City of El Segundo Budding Safety Division Impacts related to solid waste disposal would be less than significant b) Mitigation (1) No mitigation measures are required to reduce impacts below a level of significance for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development C) Findinq (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to utilities and service systems A The City Council finds that although the following environmental effects were identified as potentially significant in the FEIR, changes or alterations within the responsibility and jurisdiction of other public agencies and not the City have been adopted by such other agencies or can and should be adopted by such other agency to avoid or lessen the potential significant environmental effects listed below to a level of insignificance 1 Aesthetics a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) As a result of new construction at the previous low density, and now largely vacant, Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would be visible from multiple locations Views of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would likely be available from more off -site locations than at present as existing fencing and landscaping would be removed Existing off -site trees and vegetation would screen some public views of the project from these locations The increased visibility of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site from these locations would not be a significant impact because the surrounding area is already urbanized, and future development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would comply with the development standards of the City of El Segundo to provide a consistent design and landscaping that would present a pleasing visual appearance 14 (2) The height and mass of any commercial development proposed on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be consistent with surrounding commercial, industrial and office uses The appearance of retail development would represent a noticeable improvement over existing remnant industrial facilities Impacts associated with the change in visual character that could be associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be less than significant (3) A greater number of view lines through the site would be opened up as a result of removing fencing and landscaping along the boundary of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, although some of these view lines could be blocked by future buildings This effect would be less than significant because no views of scenic resources would be affected (4) The Proposed Circulation Element Update Draft EIR requires analysis of potential impacts related to increased night lighting for later projects that would implement the proposed Circulation Element Update Improvements to the Sepulveda Boulevard /Rosecrans Avenue intersection that would be required in order to address potential traffic impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would constitute a project that implements the Circulation Element Update policies Based upon the analysis below, construction of this component of the proposed Circulation Element Update would not result in new effects related to night lighting that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Circulation Element Update (5) Increased on -site lighting associated with the permitted uses would increase on -site lighting levels substantially from the currently low levels of light emitted from the project area Additionally, enhanced street lighting could be provided in conjunction with potential improvements to the Sepulveda /Rosecrans intersection The resulting lighting levels would be consistent with existing ambient light levels on Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard and would be less than significant In addition, the impacts of increased street lighting at the Sepulveda /Rosecrans intersection would be minimal compared to the effects of increased lighting of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site The closest sensitive receptors are separated from the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site by Sepulveda Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue, and commercial developments along Rosecrans Avenue These intervening uses would block light generated by development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and therefore, impacts to sensitive receptors from lighting would be less than significant (6) Development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site to the levels allowed under the new Commercial Center (C -4) zoning would substantially increase the amount of reflective materials located on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site from the current levels However, the resulting levels of glare 15 would be consistent with the existing levels currently found on Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard In addition, use of non - reflective materials in the construction of any proposed developments would ensure that these glare impacts would be less than significant Potential glare impacts to sensitive receptors would be less than significant for the same reasons identified above Plaza El Segundo Development (7) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be visible from multiple locations The increased visibility of the Plaza El Segundo Development would not be a significant impact because the surrounding area is already urbanized, and proposed development would consist of an attractive shopping center with a consistent design and landscaping that would present a pleasing visual appearance The height and mass of proposed development would be consistent with surrounding commercial, industrial and office uses The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be visually compatible with the office and retail buildings located along Hughes Way and Rosecrans Avenue The appearance of the proposed shopping center development would represent a noticeable improvement over existing remnant industrial facilities Impacts associated with the change in visual character of the area as a result of development of Plaza El Segundo would be less than significant (8) The development of the low intensity Plaza El Segundo Site has the potential to substantially alter the nighttime lighting characteristics of the Plaza El Segundo site and vicinity Due to the high ambient level of night lighting that presently exists in the areas surrounding the Plaza El Segundo site, and the distance of the sensitive receptors from the Plaza El Segundo site, night - lighting impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be less than significant (9) Development of the Plaza El Segundo Development would substantially increase the amount of reflective materials located on the Plaza El Segundo Site from the current levels However, the resulting levels of glare would be consistent with the existing levels currently found on Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard and would be less than significant with the use of non - reflective materials in the construction of the Plaza El Segundo Development b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda / Rosecrans Site Rezoning 16 (1) Expansive areas of highly reflective materials, such as mirrored glass, must not be permitted Non - reflective building materials must be used to the maximum extent possible to reduce potential glare impacts (B -1) (2) Lighting must be designed to minimize off -site glare (B -2) Plaza El Segundo (3) Expansive areas of highly reflective materials, such as mirrored glass, must not be permitted Non - reflective building materials must be used to the maximum extent possible to reduce potential glare impacts (B -3) (4) Lighting must be designed to minimize off -site glare (B-4) d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Project with respect to Aesthetics (2) Changes or incorporated into the Plaza El Segundo substantially lessen identified in the FEIR Air Quality a) Facts /Effects alterations have been required in, or Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Development project which avoid or the significant environmental effect as Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) Maximum daily emissions from a typical construction project associated with the Proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning will not exceed SCAQMD's daily thresholds for Sox (2) Between 2007 and 2012, emissions from construction activity may occur simultaneously with operational emissions associated with the proposed Plaza El Segundo Combined emissions would not exceed the SCAQMD's thresholds for SOx Impacts associated with SOx emissions would be below the significance threshold and less than significant (3) State and federal 1 -hour and 8 -hour CO standards would not be exceeded under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and CO levels would be well below the more stringent state standards Thus, impacts with respect to CO concentrations would be less than significant (4) The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be consistent with the 2003 AQMP 17 Plaza El Segundo (5) Maximum daily emissions associated with the construction of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development will not exceed SCAQMD's daily thresholds for CO, NOx, and PM10 Therefore, emissions of these pollutants would fall below the significance thresholds (6) Impacts associated with CO concentrations in 2012 under the full build out of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be less than significant The number of vehicles at the analyzed intersections in 2007 would be less than those occurring during 2012 Therefore, the State and federal 1 -hour and 8 -hour CO standards would not be exceeded as a result of traffic generated by the proposed Plaza El Segundo Thus, impacts with respect to CO hotspots would be less than significant (7) The proposed Plaza El Segundo would also be consistent with the 2003 AQMP b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) Prior to implementation of specific development protects, impacts associated with construction emissions must be examined in light of this Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration This examination must provide quantified estimates of construction emissions based upon the specific site, schedule, and construction equipment utilization characteristics of the proposed development and compare the estimated emissions to the SCAQMD thresholds for construction emissions

effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to Air Quality (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (3) With Respect to Mitigation Measures C -2, C -3, C -4, C -5, C -6, C -7, C -8, C -9, C -10, C -11, C -12, C -13, C -14, C -15, C -16, C- 17, C -18, C -19, C -20, C -21, C -22, and C -23, changes or alteration are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency (4) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) Biological Resources a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) A small, human - induced marsh was identified at the northwest corner of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Subsequent investigation indicated that 030 acres of wetlands falling under the jurisdiction of the LARWQCB may be present in this area Construction activities occurring within a wetland habitat, or loss of wetland habitat could represent a substantial 22 adverse effect on a riparian habitat or sensitive natural community Thus, impacts on wetlands resulting from development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be potentially significant, subject to the findings of protect- specific subsequent environmental analysis described under Subsequent Environmental Documentation and Mitigation Measures (2) Field surveys identified a number of native and non - native wildlife species that were either observed directly or inferred to utilize the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Most of these species are common in urban areas and with the exception of the loggerhead shrike would not be considered sensitive species Impacts to other wildlife species that could result from development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not represent a substantial adverse effect on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U S Fish and Wildlife Service and would therefore be less than significant (3) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site was assessed as unlikely to play any significant biogeographic role in the movement of animals through the region Thus activity associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would not have the potential to interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites No impacts related to wildlife corridors and habitat linkages would result from potential development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (4) No sensitive plant species were identified on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site during field surveys Therefore, development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not impact sensitive plant species No endangered mammal, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish or invertebrate species were detected on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Therefore, development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not impact endangered animal species (5) One threatened bird species, two bird species of special concern, and one bird species covered by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act were either detected on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site or could potentially use the site, based on known distributions of species white - tailed kite, loggerhead shrike, Belding's savannah sparrow, and burrowing owl The Belding's savannah sparrow is listed as a State Threatened species The white - tailed kite and loggerhead shrike are both listed as California Species of Special Concern The burrowing owl has no formal protected status at this time, as both the state and federal governments have declined to list the species as threatened or endangered, but burrowing owl nests are covered by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act Development activities associated with the 23 Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would have the potential to result in the impacts to these species from Grading activities on -site will generate noise, which is considered detrimental to wildlife utilization of remnant habitat areas over the construction life of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The impact, however, is temporal in nature and would be less than significant as long as no endangered or threatened organisms are present on -site during the construction activity Construction personnel have the potential to be destructive to all forms of plant and animal life Small mammals and reptiles are particularly subject to disturbance from harassment, capture, or destruction Such activities that affect the four sensitive species listed above could have a substantial adverse effect on a species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species and would be significant Grading and construction activities within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site could negatively affect increasingly rare organisms, including those identified above These activities could have a substantial adverse effect on a species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species and would be significant (6) Although the general biological assessment of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site identified the potential for vernal pools to occur within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, a follow -on investigation ruled out this possibility Development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would therefore not affect this sensitive natural community and no impacts related to vernal pools would occur Plaza El Segundo (7) The analysis provided regarding potential jurisdictional wetlands and sensitive species within the Plaza El Segundo Development site is in accordance with the mitigation measures for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning that require site - specific evaluation of potential wetlands impacts (8) Based upon the assessment of potential jurisdictional wetlands within the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site, approximately 0 30 acres of wetlands under the jurisdiction of the LARWQCB may exist within the site No waters of the U S or waters of the State are present on the proposed Plaza El Segundo site Therefore, construction of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would not impact any ACOE or CFDG jurisdictional wetland areas, but could potentially affect approximately 0 30 acres of LARWQCB jurisdictional wetlands Construction activities occurring within a wetland habitat, or loss of wetland habitat could represent a substantial adverse effect on a riparian 24 habitat or sensitive natural community Thus, impacts on wetlands resulting from potential future development of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be significant (9) The four sensitive bird species detected on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site or that could potentially use the site could also occur on the proposed Plaza El Segundo site Development activities associated with the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would have the potential to result in the following impacts to these species • Grading activities on -site will generate noise, which is considered detrimental to wildlife utilization of remnant habitat areas over the construction life of the Plaza El Segundo The impact, however, is temporal in nature and would be less than significant as long as no endangered or threatened organisms are present on -site • Construction personnel have the potential to be destructive to all forms of plant and animal life Such activities that affect the three sensitive species listed above could have a substantial adverse effect on a species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species and would be significant • Grading and construction activities within the proposed Plaza El Segundo site could negatively affect increasingly rare organisms, including white tailed kite, loggerhead shrike, Belding's savannah sparrow, and burrowing owl These activities could have a substantial adverse effect on a species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species and would be significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for any proposed development project that includes the northwest corner of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that has been identified as potentially containing 0 30 acres of jurisdictional wetlands area under the jurisdiction of LARWQCB Impacts to any jurisdictional wetlands that may exist in this area must be examined, at the time the development project is proposed, in light of the Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following (1) A site specific analysis must be conducted to determine whether the design of the proposed development project would impact any of the 0 30 acres identified as potential jurisdictional wetlands This analysis must be completed prior to the start of construction activities for any proposed development within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site If jurisdictional wetlands 25 would be affected by the development project, measures must be identified to reduce impacts to less than significant levels (D -1) Subsequent environmental documentation must also be prepared for any proposed development project within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site to determine the presence /absence of sensitive species, This information must be examined, at the time the development project is proposed, in light of the Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following (2) Site specific analysis of potential effects to four sensitive bird species (white tailed kite, loggerhead shrike, burrowing owl and Belding's savannah sparrow) must be conducted prior to the start of construction activities for any proposed development within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site If any of these sensitive species would be affected by the proposed development, measures must be identified to reduce impacts to these species to less than significant levels, including, but not limited to, on -site monitoring by a qualified biologist during grading and /or construction activities (D -2) C) Mitigation (1) A site specific analysis must be conducted to determine whether the design of any proposed development project within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning site would impact any of the 0 30 acres identified as potential jurisdictional wetlands This analysis must be completed prior to the start of construction activities for any proposed development within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site If jurisdictional wetlands would be affected by the development project, measures must be identified to reduce impacts to less than significant levels (D -1) (2) Site specific analysis of potential effects to four sensitive bird species (white tailed kite, loggerhead shrike, burrowing owl and Belding's savannah sparrow) must be conducted prior to the start of construction activities for any proposed development within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning

limited to, on -site monitoring by a qualified biologist during grading and /or construction activities (D -2) (3) All construction personnel must receive copies of all pertinent mitigation measures to reduce impacts to general biological resources and must be instructed on avoiding adverse impacts to birds encountered on -site (D -3) (4) Prior to site remediation or construction grading on parts of the Site where burrowing owls may occur, a qualified biologist must be retained to conduct surveys for burrowing owl to determine if it is resident on -site Surveys must be conducted no more than 30 days prior to commencement of such activities If burrowing owls are determined to be resident, a qualified biologist must oversee site remediation and demolition activities in and around any semi- natural areas which could be occupied by burrowing owls Proposed mitigation measures must be presented to the California Department of Fish and Game and /or U S Fish and Wildlife Service for approval to avoid directly harming the owl if it is present on -site during these activities (D -4) Plaza EI Segundo The following mitigation measures must be required for the Plaza El Segundo Development (5) All construction personnel must receive copies of all pertinent mitigation measures to reduce impacts to general biological resources and must be instructed on avoiding adverse impacts to birds encountered on -site (D -5) (6) Prior to site remediation or construction grading on parts of the Site where burrowing owls may occur, a qualified biologist must be retained to conduct surveys for burrowing owl to determine if it is resident on -site Surveys must be conducted no more than 30 days prior to commencement of such activities If burrowing owls are determined to be resident, a qualified biologist must oversee site remediation and demolition activities in and around any semi- natural areas which could be occupied by burrowing owls Proposed mitigation measures must be presented to the California Department of Fish and Game and /or U S Fish and Wildlife Service for approval to avoid directly harming the owl if it is present on -site during these activities (D -6) (7) Prior to issuance of building permits, evidence must be provided to the City of El Segundo that all necessary approvals for any wetland dredge /fill contemplated by such permit have been obtained from the Regional Water Quality Control Board — Los Angeles Region, or equivalent documentation, or a waiver stating that no permit is presently required pursuant to the regulations of that agency If required, conditions for permit approvals by RWQCB must include, but may not be limited to the following • Mitigation of any unavoidable impacts to wetland values and functions to the satisfaction of the permitting agency • Incorporation of buffers to the wetland areas • On -site treatment of runoff to improve water quality 27 Compliance with best management practices during construction (D -7) d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to Biological Resources (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (3) With Respect to Mitigation Measures D -1, D -2, D -4, D -6, and D -7, changes or alteration are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency (4) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) 4 Geology and Sods a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) No evidence of faulting was observed during the field investigation and no active faults cross the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site or are located in the immediate site vicinity The City of El Segundo does not contain any Alqust -Paolo Earthquake Fault Zones Based on the available geologic data, active or potentially active faults with the potential for surface fault rupture are not known to be located directly beneath or projecting toward the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Therefore, development of Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not expose people to significant impacts related to surface fault rupture (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is located within the Southern California region that is known for its seismic activity Additionally, the location of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site relative to known active or potentially active faults indicates that it could be subjected to significant ground shaking Compliance with the State of California Building Code, with its local amendments, would ensure that potential seismic and ground shaking impacts would be less than significant i (3) According to the State of California Seismic Hazards Map, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is not located in an area at risk for liquefaction Therefore, development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not expose people to significant liquefaction impacts (4) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is not within an area identified as having a potential for slope instability Additionally, the site is not located within an area identified as having a potential for seismic slope instability There are no known landslides near the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, nor is the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site located in the path of any known or potential landslides. Therefore, the development of Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not result in or expose people to significant impacts related to slope stability (5) No subsidence associated with fluid withdrawal, peat oxidation, or hydrocompaction has occurred in the City of El Segundo Therefore, development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not result in or expose people to significant impacts related to subsidence (6) The City of El Segundo is not within an area of known expansive sods Therefore, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not result in or expose people to significant impacts related to expansive soils (7) The Proposed Circulation Element Update Draft EIR requires analysis of potential impacts related to expansive soils for later projects that would implement the proposed Circulation Element Update The proposed connection of Park Place between Sepulveda Boulevard and Nash Street and connection of Park Place to Hughes Way via Allied Way through the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would constitute a project that implements the Circulation Element Update policies Based upon the analysis above, construction of this component of the proposed Circulation Element Update would not result in new effects related to expansive sods that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Circulation Element Update (8) The City of El Segundo is within an oil field and there are documented producing wells located near the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Due to the presence of oil and natural gas wells near the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, there is a potential for methane to be present in the sod Impacts associated with methane levels on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be potentially significant, subject to the findings of project- specific environmental analysis described under Subsequent Environmental Documentation and Mitigation Measures (9) Removal of contaminated soils that may occur on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be separate activity 29 which will be accomplished prior to grading activities For a discussion of soil contamination on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans site and its removal, see Section IV G of this EIR (10) Earth movement activities in and around the unlined depressions could result in an increase of impervious surfaces at the site and expose soils to potential wind -borne erosion Therefore, the potential for erosion as a result of the development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be significant Plaza El Segundo (11) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would not expose people or structures to potentially adverse effects or otherwise result in significant impacts with respect to surface fault rupture, seismicity and ground shaking, liquefaction and seismic settlement, slope stability, subsidence, expansive sods, landform alteration, budding foundations, or grading Impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be less than significant with respect to these issues (12) The City of El Segundo is within an oil field and there are documented producing wells located near Plaza El Segundo A methane study was conducted to determine the presence or absence of methane on the Plaza El Segundo site This study meets the requirement for subsequent environmental documentation for development on the proposed Plaza El Segundo Site Seventeen methane samples and one duplicate sample were collected from nine locations on the Plaza El Segundo site on January 5, 2004 Methane was detected during the sampling, however, it was not detected at levels that require further analysis or sampling. Therefore, impacts associated with methane would be less than significant on the Plaza El Segundo site (13) Unlined natural depressions could result in an increase of impervious surfaces at the site and expose soils to the effects of wind -borne erosion Therefore, the potential for erosion at the site as a result of the development of Plaza El Segundo would be significant There is also potential for erosion to occur during the grading process during periods of heavy precipitation The development of Plaza El Segundo would result in potentially significant impacts related to erosion b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for any proposed development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site to determine the presence or absence of methane The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following Ell A methane study must be conducted to determine the levels at which methane is or is not present in the area of any proposed development If methane is determined to be present at or above the levels which require action, then the report shall include recommendations and mitigation measures which shall be followed (E -1) C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonm (1) A methane study must be conducted to determine the levels at which methane is or is not present in the area of any proposed development If methane is determined to be present at or above the levels which require action, then the report must include recommendations and mitigation measures which must be followed (E -1) (2) All soil disturbance and travel on unpaved surfaces must be suspended if winds exceed 25 miles per hour (E -2) Plaza El Segundo (3) All soil disturbance and travel on unpaved surfaces must be suspended if winds exceed 25 miles per hour (E -3) d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Project with respect to geology and soils (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (3) With Respect to Mitigation Measures E -2 and E -3, changes or alteration are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency (4) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) 5 Hydrology and Water Quality a) Facts /Effects 31 Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonm (1) The Proposed Circulation Element Update Draft EIR requires analysis of potential impacts related to drainage and storm drain systems for later projects that would implement the proposed Circulation Element Update The proposed connection of Park Place between Sepulveda Boulevard and Nash Street and connection of Park Place to Hughes Way via Allied Way through the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would constitute a project that implements the Circulation Element Update policies The analysis provided below includes the master drainage plan and storm drain and detainment system designed required by the Proposed Circulation Element Update Draft EIR Based upon the analysis provided below, construction of this component of the proposed Circulation Element Update would not result in new effects related to drainage that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Circulation Element Update (2) The hydrology calculations demonstrate that the entire Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site can be protected from flooding through the use of on -site storm drains in conjunction with an on -site retention basin without increasing discharge rates from the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site At full bwldout the total 50 -year flow discharging into the retention basin is 117 cubic feet per second (cfs) with a total retention volume of 4 acre -feet or 175,000 cubic feet With the construction of the retention basin and the mitigation measures below, the development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site at full buddout would not result in significant impacts related to hydrology (3) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is not located in a 100 or 500 year floodplain Therefore, the future development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not result in or expose people or property to significant impacts related to flooding (4) The development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site does not involve deep excavations that have the potential to intercept existing Aquifers, nor would it involve additions (with the exception of normal water percolation from rainfall /landscape irrigation) or withdrawals of groundwater Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not result in significant impacts related to groundwater (5) Since the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning involves clearing, grading, and the excavation of 5 or more acres, a General Construction Activity Storm Water Permit must be obtained from the SWRCB prior to the start of construction The NPDES requires that a NOI be filed with the SWRCB By filing an NOI, the developer agrees to the conditions outlined in the General Permit One of the conditions of the General Permit is the development and the implementation of a SWPPP The SWPPP identifies which structural and nonstructural BMPs will be 32 implemented, such as sandbag barriers, temporary desalting basins near inlets, gravel driveways, dust controls, employee training, and general good housekeeping practices With the implementation of the required BMPs and the mitigation measures listed below, short-term impacts on water quality from construction materials, site grading, and equipment maintenance would be less than significant (6) If not properly designed and constructed, the proposed development could increase the rate of urban pollutant introduction into storm water system As required by the SUSMP, detailed plans for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site's compliance with the SUSMP will be submitted to the City as part of the development plan approval process prior to issuance of budding and grading permits With compliance with the SUSMP requirements, the project's operational impacts on storm water quality will be less than significant Plaza El Segundo (7) Runoff from the Plaza El Segundo site would drain across the Plaza El Segundo Site to the proposed retention basin located in the eastern portion of the Plaza El Segundo site The total 50- year flow discharging into the retention basin from the portion of the Plaza El Segundo site located north of the railroad tracks is anticipated to be 57 cfs The total volume of the retention basin is 8 09 acre -feet or 352,000 cubic feet for the Plaza El Segundo site The total 50 -year flow discharging from the portion of the Plaza El Segundo site located south of the railroad tracks is 11 cfs Since this does not represent an increase in runoff from the existing condition, no detention is required for this area With the construction of the retention basin and the mitigation measures below, development of Plaza El Segundo would not result in significant impacts related to hydrology (8) Plaza El Segundo is not located in a 100 or 500 year floodplam Therefore, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would not result in or expose people or property to significant impacts related to flooding (9) The development of the Plaza El Segundo site does not involve deep excavations that have the potential to intercept existing Aquifers, nor would it involve direct additions or withdrawals of groundwater Therefore, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would not result in significant impacts related to groundwater With the implementation of the required BMPs, and the mitigation measures listed below short-term impacts on water quality from construction materials, site grading, and equipment maintenance would be less than significant (10) If not properly designed and constructed, the proposed development on Plaza El Segundo could increase the rate of urban pollutant introduction into storm water system In 33 compliance with the SUSMP requirements, the proposed development on Plaza El Segundo will provide for the treatment/filtration of on -site storm water runoff before it enters the public storm water conveyance system Applicable BMPs will also be selected from those approved sources identified in the Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan for Los Angeles County and Cities in Los Angeles County Additionally, a preventive maintenance program, including regular street and parking lot sweeping with equipment designed for removal of such compounds, should be provided to reduce the potential water quality impact to a less- than - significant level As noted above, the Plaza El Segundo site will provide structural or treatment control BMPs designed to mitigate storm water runoff With compliance with the SUSMP requirements, the project's operational impacts on storm water quality will be less than significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonin (1) The applicant must prepare hydrology studies for each specific development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site. Such studies shall be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and any other applicable agency (F -1) (2) The applicant must prepare runoff studies for each specific development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site so that the runoff from one specific project area would not flow onto another specific project area without the owners consent Such studies must be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and any other applicable agency (F -2) (3) The applicant must prepare a master drainage plan for each specific development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site. This plan must include detailed hydrology /hydraulic calculations and drainage improvements, showing quantitatively how the project will eliminate the potential for downstream flooding due to increased storm water runoff. These plans will also identify the proposed BMPs to be implemented in compliance with the requirements of the Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan and the ESMC Such plans must be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (F -3) (4) The applicant must design, for each specific development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, a conveyance and detainment system to meet the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works limits on the storm drains that would convey the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site's discharge (F-4) 34 (5) The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development must comply with City of El Segundo Ordinance No 1347 and No 1348, which establishes storm water and urban pollution controls (F -5) (6) The protect owner /developer of a specific development (e g , Plaza El Segundo) on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans site must maintain all structural or treatment control BMPs for the life of the project (F -6) Plaza El Segundo The following mitigation measures have been identified as pertaining specifically to the Plaza El Segundo Development (7) The applicant must prepare a hydrology study for the Plaza El Segundo Site The study must be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and any other applicable agencies (F -7) (8) The applicant must prepare a runoff study for the Plaza El Segundo Site so that the runoff does not flow onto another area without the owners consent The study must be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and the any other applicable agencies (F -8) (9) The applicant must prepare a master drainage plan for the Plaza El Segundo Site This plan must include detailed hydrology /hydraulic calculations and drainage improvements, showing quantitatively how the protect will eliminate the potential for downstream flooding due to increased storm water runoff These plans will also identify the proposed BMPs to be implemented in compliance with the requirements of the Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan and the ESMC. Such plans must be reviewed and approved by the City of El Segundo and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (F -9) (10) The applicant must design a conveyance and detainment system to meet the City of El Segundo's and Los Angeles County Department of Public Works limits on the storm drains that would convey the Plaza El Segundo Site's discharge (F -10) (11) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development must comply with City of El Segundo Ordinance No 1347 and No 1348, which establishes storm water and urban pollution controls (F -11) (12) The protect owner /developer must maintain all structural or treatment control BMPs for the life of the Plaza El Segundo Development (F -12) d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence 35 identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to hydrology and water quality (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (3) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) Hazards and Hazardous Materials a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The parcels that comprise the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site are known to contain sod and groundwater contamination due to past activities However, at this time, the extent and type of contamination for all the parcels is not known Without this information, based upon previous activities that have taken place on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, conditions of site contamination would have the potential to expose workers and visitors to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site to soil and groundwater contamination levels that are above established remediation thresholds and expose workers and visitors to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site to cancer and /or non cancer risks that exceed health risk thresholds Thus impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning related to sod and groundwater contamination would be significant (2) Asbestos and lead surveys have not been conducted for any of the structures that exist on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site with the exception of the Honeywell International Inc parcels However, it is assumed that these structures contain asbestos containing material and lead due to the age of the facilities Thus demolition and development activities on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would have the potential to expose workers to hazards associated with asbestos and lead Impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be significant with respect to asbestos and lead Plaza El Segundo (3) Upon completion of interim remediation of the protect site, potential health risk impacts to individuals from site contamination 36 would be less than significant with respect to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Implementation of additional measures to address soil gas and groundwater contamination would not affect the risks associated with construction and operation of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development since the workers, employees and patrons of the proposed Plaza El Segundo would not be exposed to chemicals that would be remediated through these processes (4) After removal of the asbestos containing materials from the various facilities, the facilities on the Plaza El Segundo site were demolished There are no structures or asbestos containing materials presently located on proposed Plaza El Segundo site Therefore, impacts to individuals or the environment from asbestos fibers would be less than significant Lead -based paint surveys revealed no significant results b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Seoulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonin Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for any proposed development project within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Conditions related to sod and groundwater contamination must be examined for the proposed development site, at the time the development project is proposed, in light of the Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following (1) A full characterization of all the parcels that comprise that protect site must be undertaken The City must require that this process be initiated by requiring the project applicant to conduct a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) or equivalent investigation and analysis for the specific project site that would be occupied by the proposed development The Phase I ESA or equivalent document must be prepared by a licensed professional (Registered Environmental Assessor or equivalent) and submitted to the City for review (G -1) (2) If indicated by the initial investigation, the City must require the preparation of subsequent Phase 11 investigation(s) and submission to the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board and /or other appropriate agency The project applicant must provide to the City copies of all materials submitted to the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G -2) (3) Remediation of any environmental conditions identified in the Phase I and Phase II site assessments or investigations must be accomplished to the standards established and agreed upon by the appropriate regulatory agency(ies) for the contemplated development, prior to the issuance of grading or building permits 37 for the protect The protect applicant must provide to the City copies of any materials received from the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G -3) (4) If the future development protect would include any part of Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that currently contains structures, an asbestos and lead survey must be conducted to determine the presence or absence of these substances Removal of these substances shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations (G-4) C) Mitigation: Further mitigation measures for site specific protects would be identified by the Mitigation Measures described below Before development is allowed on any part of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, the part of the site proposed for development would need to be remediated to the standards required for commercial development by LARWQCB (1) A full characterization of all the parcels that comprise a specific protect site must be undertaken The City must require that this process be initiated by requiring the protect applicant to conduct a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) or equivalent investigation and analysis for the specific protect site that would be occupied by the proposed development The Phase I ESA or equivalent document must be prepared by a licensed professional (Registered Environmental Assessor or equivalent) and submitted to the City for review (G -1) (2) If indicated by the initial investigation, the City must require the preparation of subsequent Phase II investigation(s) and submission to the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board and /or other appropriate agency The protect applicant must provide to the City copies of all materials submitted to the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G -2) (3) Remediation of any environmental conditions identified in the Phase I and Phase II site assessments or investigations must be accomplished to the standards established and agreed upon by of the appropriate regulatory agency(ies) for the contemplated development, prior to the issuance of grading or budding permits for the protect The protect applicant must provide to the City copies of any materials received from the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G -3) (4) If the future development protect would include any part of Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that currently contains structures, an asbestos and lead survey must be conducted to determine the presence or absence of these substances Removal of these substances must be conducted in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations (G -4) KE 7 Ul Plaza El Segundo (5) Remedial investigations, health risk assessments for the contemplated development and final soils remedial action plans for the Plaza El Segundo portion of the project site must be completed and approved to the standards established and agreed upon by the LARWQCB prior to the start of any protect activities The protect applicant must provide to the City copies of any materials received from the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G-5) (6) Remediation of shallow sod of the Plaza El Segundo Development portion of the protect site must be accomplished to the standards for commercial development established and agreed upon in conjunction with the LARWQCB and a shallow soil closure letter must be issued by the LARWQCB prior to issuance of grading permits for construction of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The project applicant must provide to the City copies of any materials received from the LARWQCB or any other regulatory agency (G -6) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to hazards and hazardous materials (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FOR (3) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) Land Use a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The rezoning of a 708 net acre portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site from Heavy and Light Industrial to Commercial Center would allow for the development of commercial and retail uses Any future development on the site would be required to meet the zoning and development standards associated with the C -4 designation Compatibility with the surrounding land uses would be ensured through compliance with these development standards The existing uses (e g , 39 lumberyard, Air products facility, and RV storage) would continue to operate and would be consistent with the M -1 and M -2 zones Therefore, no land use compatibility issues are anticipated as a result of future development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be consistent with the applicable adopted plans and policies, including the El Segundo General Plan and SCAG's RCPG Future development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be consistent with both the General Plan and the RCPG Therefore, no land use impacts are associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (3) Public comments on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning contend that the proposed protect would provide retail sales and services that could compete with downtown El Segundo business and that the impacts of increased competition could result in urban blight and decay in the downtown commercial area of El Segundo (4) As discussed in Response to Comment No 10 -2 in the FEIR, due to the size of stores that would be included in the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, a different range of products would be provided, compared to the smaller stores in Downtown, which are more focused on the local residential market As such, proposed development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not be anticipated to adversely affect businesses presently located in downtown El Segundo such that any potentially significant blight or decay, or other significant physical environmental impacts would ensue as a result of the protect Plaza El Segundo (5) The Plaza El Segundo Development would include a mix of large retail stores, specialty retail and other uses including a fitness center /spa, and fast food and sit -down restaurants The shopping center would replace the former chemical manufacturing and industrial uses that had previously occupied the Plaza El Segundo site and would be compatible with the surrounding commercial, industrial, public facilities, and open space uses The proposed development would conform to the development standards of the new Commercial Center (C-4) Zone (6) None of the adjacent uses are considered sensitive and the placement of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development adjacent to them would not interfere with the daily operation of these uses The closest residential use, located in the City of Manhattan Beach approximately a quarter mile southwest of the intersection of Sepulveda Boulevard and Rosecrans Avenue In addition, the proposed development would be landscaped in accordance with the development standards established for the EE Commercial Center, C-4, Zone, which would work to create a buffer between the proposed development and the adjacent land uses Impacts related to land use compatibility resulting from the development of Plaza El Segundo would be less than significant (7) Additional information regarding noise impacts to the surrounding area during construction and operation (vehicular) can be found in Section IV I Traffic impacts associated with the operation of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development are discussed in Section IV L These analyses show that with implementation of the identified mitigation measures, the project would not result in significant, short-term or long -term, land use compatibility impacts (8) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would not conflict with any of the applicable policies of the El Segundo General Plan and would work to implement a number of those policies A General Plan Amendment is proposed to change the land use designation from Heavy Industrial to Commercial Center The explanations provided under the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning discussion (see Table IV H -1 of the Draft EIR) are applicable to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development with the following exceptions • Policy 3 03 The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development is anticipated to provide approximately 952 lobs to the local economy (9) Overall, the proposed development of the Plaza El Segundo Development would be consistent with applicable City and regional planning policies (10) Public comments on the Plaza El Segundo Development contend that the Plaza El Segundo Development would provide retail sales and services that could compete with downtown El Segundo business and that the impacts of increased competition could result in urban blight and decay in the downtown commercial area of El Segundo (11) As indicated in Response to Comment No. 10 -3 in the FEIR, the Draft Development Agreement for the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development establishes restrictions on the size and types of uses allowed on the project site. Since the types of uses proposed for the project site would not be available in downtown El Segundo and vice versa, it is not anticipated that the stores on the project site would adversely affect businesses located in downtown El Segundo Additionally, the goods and services to be provided by the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would not compete with the stores and business of Downtown El Segundo due to the size and nature of the businesses Consequently, the 41 development of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would not lead to a downward spiral of vacancies, deterioration, or blight in the downtown El Segundo commercial district b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required c) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) Because no significant impacts related to land use have been identified, no mitigation measures are required Plaza El Segundo (2) Because no significant impacts related to land use have been identified, no mitigation measures are required d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to land use (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FOR Noise a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Operational Noise (1) The incremental increase in noise from traffic is expected to be less than 1 dB(A) at both sensitive receptor locations Thus, traffic- related operational noise impacts for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning are anticipated to be less than significant All other sensitive receptors in the area would experience lower increases in noise levels as a result of vehicular traffic because the analyzed roadways represent the highest levels of project- related traffic The potential increase in noise levels would not be audible at these locations and thus the impact would be less than significant 42 (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would have the potential to generate noise from day -to -day activities During project operation, it is anticipated that the primary sources of noise occurring with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be loading dock and parking lot activity All these activities will be similar and consistent with activities occurring at the immediately adjacent non - residential uses These activities would be within ambient noise levels and thus would not change the existing noise environment As such, impacts related to parking lot and loading dock noise would be less than significant Plaza El Segundo Operational Noise (3) Noise increases associated with the Plaza El Segundo Development traffic generation would not be perceptible along any of the modeled roadways in the vicinity of the project, where sensitive receptors are located Therefore, impacts from traffic associated with the Plaza El Segundo Development would be less than significant (4) During project operation, it is anticipated that the primary sources of noise occurring with the Plaza El Segundo site would be loading dock and parking lot activity All these activities will be similar and consistent with activities occurring at the immediately adjacent non - residential uses These activities would be within ambient noise levels and thus would not change the existing noise environment As such, impacts related to parking lot and loading dock noise would be less than significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for development projects proposed to be constructed on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans site, The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following (1) A project - specific construction noise analysis must be prepared that calculates, based on project - specific parameters and identification of the site - specific sensitive receptors that could be affected by construction activities, the noise levels that would be experienced at sensitive receptors located adjacent to that site If noise levels resulting from construction activity would result in temporary construction noise levels that exceed 65 dBA at a sensitive receptor, or cause an incremental increase of 5 dBA over the existing ambient sound level, it the existing ambient sound level at the sensitive receptor location is 65 dBA or more, then the study must identify feasible mitigation measures to be applied to that project from the list of mitigation measures provided below (1 -1) 43 C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The following mitigation measures are required to minimize construction related noise impacts associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) A project- specific construction noise analysis must be prepared that calculates, based on project - specific parameters and identification of the site - specific sensitive receptors that could be affected by construction activities, the noise levels that would be experienced at sensitive receptors located adjacent to that site If noise levels resulting from construction activity would result in temporary construction noise levels that exceed 65 dBA at a sensitive receptor, or cause an incremental increase of 5 dBA over the existing ambient sound level, if the existing ambient sound level at the sensitive receptor location is 65 dBA or more, then the study must identify feasible mitigation measures to be applied to that project from the list of mitigation measures provided below • Construction contracts must specify that all construction equipment shall be equipped with mufflers and other applicable noise attenuation devices • During construction phases, the contractor must store and maintain equipment as far as possible from the adjacent receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site • As stated in the City of El Segundo Municipal Code, construction must be restricted to the hours of 7 00 a m to 6 p m Monday through Saturday, and prohibited at anytime on Sunday or a Federal holiday • Temporary plywood noise barriers must be constructed along the northern and eastern property lines of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site during construction, which must be high enough to block the line -of -sight between the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east (1 -1) Plaza El Segundo The follow mitigation measures are required to minimize construction related noise impacts associated with the Plaza El Segundo Development (2) Construction contracts must specify that all construction equipment must be equipped with mufflers and other applicable noise attenuation devices (1 -2) 44 (3) During construction phases, the contractor must store and maintain equipment as far as possible from the adjacent receptor property locations to the north and east of the Plaza El Segundo site (1 -3) (4) As stated in the City of El Segundo Municipal Code, construction must be restricted to the hours of 7 00 a m to 6 p m Monday through Saturday, and prohibited at anytime on Sunday or a Federal holiday (1-4) (5) Temporary plywood noise barriers must be constructed along the 4 5 acre portion of the Plaza El Segundo site south of the UPRR tracks during construction, which must be high enough to block the line -of -sight (a minimum of 8 feet above existing grade) between the Plaza El Segundo site and receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east (1 -5) d) Finding (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to noise (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR 9 Population, Housino, and Employment a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) Construction of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development would result in increased employment opportunities in the construction field, which could potentially result in increased permanent population and demand for housing in the vicinity of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site However, the employment patterns of construction workers in Southern California are such that it is not likely that they would relocate their households as a consequence of the construction employment associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development (2) Operation of the development permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would provide employment for approximately 1,904 persons by protect completion in the year 2012 Employment resulting from the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be 45 consistent with SCAG protections for the City of El Segundo and the South Bay Cities Subregion through 2015 Therefore, impacts associated the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning related to employment would be less than significant (3) The City of El Segundo is a jobs rich city, with far more employment opportunities than the available housing stock can accommodate From the SCAG data presented in Section IV J it can be seen that the vast majority of employees in the City of El Segundo commute to work from other communities, and will continue to do so in the future While the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is expected to generate approximately 1,904 new lobs, for several reasons, it is not expected to generate a demand for 1,904 housing units It is reasonable to expect, therefore, that many of the new employees will be drawn from the local labor force in the City of El Segundo and surrounding communities (4) It is expected that the maximum housing demand generated by the project could be accommodated by the existing housing stock within the average 9 7 -mile commute distance from the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, without generating demand for new housing construction Therefore, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would result in less than significant impacts related to housing Plaza El Segundo (5) Operation of the proposed Plaza El Segundo would provide employment for approximately 952 persons The Plaza El Segundo's estimated employee generation would account for approximately 6 8 percent of SCAG's forecasted total employment growth for the City of El Segundo during this period Employment resulting from the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be consistent with SCAG projections for the City of El Segundo and the South Bay Cities Subregion through 2010 Therefore, the Plaza El Segundo would result in a less than significant impact regarding employment (6) The additional housing demand associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be accommodated by existing housing supply in the South Bay Cities Subregion and surrounding cities to the north and northeast of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, The proposed Plaza El Segundo would implement the proposed C -4 zoning on a portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Thus the proposed Plaza El Segundo would not pose additional issues related to increased employment and housing demand The proposed Plaza El Segundo would result in less than significant impacts related to housing b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required 46 C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) As no significant impacts on population, housing and employment associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo would occur, no mitigation measures are required There are no available mitigation measures to address the incremental contribution of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo to the significant cumulative impact related to population growth and housing demand Plaza El Segundo (2) As no significant impacts on population, housing and employment associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo would occur, no mitigation measures are required There are no available mitigation measures to address the incremental contribution of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo to the significant cumulative impact related to population growth and housing demand d) Findinci (1) No significant impacts were identified and no mitigation measures were required No impact is anticipated to employment or population growth as a result of implementing the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development (2) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to population, housing, and employment (3) Changes or incorporated into the Plaza El Segundo substantially lessen identified in the FEIR 10 Public Services — Fire Protection a) Facts /Effects alterations have been required in, or Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Development project which avoid or the significant environmental effect as Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning 47 (1) Emergency access to the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be provided at several driveways along Sepulveda Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue and from Allied Way Internal fire access roadways would be provided throughout the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Emergency response times are not anticipated to be significantly impacted by project traffic, as the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site is located less than one mile southwest of ESFD Station No 2 and within two miles of the proposed relocation site for Station No 2 Additional City streets and public fire hydrants would be provided on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site The provision of street continuation through the site is proposed as part of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Protect, which would improve access to the southern edge of the City Water flow and fire hydrants would be provided in accordance with ESFD Regulations, and installation of automatic fire sprinklers and a complete life- safety alarm system within each building shall be undertaken in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Fire Code to further preclude the need for additional fire protection The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would not require new or physically altered fire protection facilities in order to maintain acceptable fire service ratios, response times, or other performance standards and would have a less than significant impact on fire protection services (2) A Fire Service Mitigation Fee of $0 14 per gross square foot is required and would be provided by future development within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site in order to address fire service impacts The Fire Service Mitigation Fee is set by the City at a level which adequately reflects the impacts on fire services caused by new development Plaza El Segundo (3) Because the full development permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would not significantly impact fire protections services, the proposed Plaza El Segundo would also result in less than significant impacts on fire protection services (4) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be responsible for paying the Fire Service Mitigation Fee of $0 14 per gross square foot set forth in the El Segundo Municipal Code. The Fire Service Mitigation Fee is set by the City at a level which adequately reflects the impacts on fire services caused by new development b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required 4B C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Although impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be less than significant with respect to fire protection facilities, the City of El Segundo imposes the following standard conditions of project approval to offset protect impacts (1) The applicant must pay the

Development protect which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR Public Services — Police Protection a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonln (1) The additional commercial uses on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that would be permitted under the proposed C -4 zone could potentially generate an increase in the number of service calls Responses to thefts, vehicle burglaries, damage to vehicles, traffic- related incidents, and crimes against persons are anticipated to result from an increase in traffic on adjacent streets and an increase in transient occupancy (2) ESPD has not identified any need for new or altered facilities that would be required to serve development permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Therefore, impacts to police services associated with development of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be less than significant In addition, development permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be required to pay the required Police Service Mitigation Fee, which has been set by the City at a level which reflects the impacts on police services caused by new development Plaza El Segundo (3) Because the full development permitted under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning would not significantly impact police services, the proposed Plaza El Segundo would also result in less than significant impacts on police services The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would incorporate a security plan into the protect design, to include visible budding addresses, limited entrances and exits, low profile landscaping, adequate lighting, and provisions for security personnel The security plan would work to reduce crime and thus reduce police service calls and need for new or physically altered police facilities Additionally, as stated above, payment of the Police Service Mitigation Fee, which has been set by the City at a level which reflects the impacts on police services caused by new development, would also be required b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Although impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be less than significant with respect to police

which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR. 12 Transportation and Traffic a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda/Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would significantly impact 13 intersections during the a m peak hour, p m peak hour or Saturday mid -day peak hour (or combinations of the above) (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is estimated to contribute approximately 240 trips in the southbound direction on the San Diego Freeway between the 1 -105 interchange and El Segundo Boulevard During the afternoon peak hour, this number of trips would cause the D/C ratio to increase by 0 02, with a resulting LOS of F(0), which would constitute a significant impact at this location The remaining freeway segments would not be significantly impacted by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Plaza El Segundo (3) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would significantly impact a total of seven intersections during the a m 53 peak hour, p m peak hour or Saturday mid -day peak hour (or combinations of the above) (4) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development is estimated to contribute approximately 162 trips in the southbound direction on the San Diego Freeway between the 1 -105 interchange and El Segundo Boulevard During the afternoon peak hour, this number of trips would cause the D/C ratio to increase by 0 01, with a resulting LOS of F(0), which would be a less than significant impact at this location The remaining freeway segments would not be significantly impacted by the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonm The following mitigation measures are required to reduce traffic impacts from the full implementation of the proposed C-4 zone under the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Physical Roadway Improvements (1) El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard Convert the existing eastbound right -turn only lane to a shared through /right -turn lane There exists three receiving lanes on the east leg of the intersection In addition, modify the raised center median to convert the westbound shared through left -turn lane to a dedicated second left turn lane and additional through lane (L- 1) (2) El Segundo Boulevard and Aviation Boulevard Not required for Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative (3) Park Place and Nash Street Provide a new traffic signal at this location Widen and restripe the eastbound and westbound directions to provide one left -turn lane, one through lane, and one right -turn only lane (L -3) (4) Park Place and Douglas Street Provide a new traffic signal at this location (L-4) (5) Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard On the westbound approach of Rosecrans Avenue dedicate additional right -of -way on the north side of Rosecrans Avenue to provide a free flow right -turn lane and third left -turn lane Sepulveda Boulevard south of Rosecrans Avenue may need to be widened to accommodate the third left -turn lane, depending on the specific design of this lane This widening could take place within the 54 existing Sepulveda Boulevard right -of -way Widen the east side of Sepulveda Boulevard along the project frontage to provide the acceptance lane for the free westbound right -turn lane This additional lane on Sepulveda should be improved to the new Park Place connection where a right turn lane will be provided This intersection's jurisdiction is shared with Manhattan Beach and Caltrans Coordination and concurrence of these agencies for implementation of these improvements would be required (L -5) (6) Rosecrans Avenue and Continental Way Not required for Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative (7) Rosecrans Avenue and Douglas Street On the westbound approach, widen the north side of Rosecrans Avenue to provide a dedicated westbound right -turn lane This intersection's jurisdiction is shared with Manhattan Beach Coordination and concurrence of this agency for implementation of this improvement would be required This improvement is included as part of the current Rosecrans /Aviation Widening (discussed under "Future Highway System Improvements ") but will be guaranteed by the project (L -7) Site Trip Reductions (8) Project applicants must promote rideshare programs (bikes, rideshare matching and transit options) as required by the City of El Segundo Transportation Demand Management Program (TDM) In addition to the traditional TDM program, project applicants must promote access to the Commute View System which is being implemented by the City to provide information on congested routes to provide additional trip reduction measures The Commute View System is an advanced traveler information system which provides real time travel time information, incident information, and general traffic conditions through a variety of devices such as the cable, internet, cell phone and wireless PDA This will provide commuters the ability to make informed decisions regarding the route, time of travel and mode of transportation Project applicants must include or share in a transit connection system to promote use of the existing Metro Green Line service, remote employee lot during seasonal peaks and local circulator service Based upon estimate usage patterns and trial studies, an approximately three percent reduction in trips to and from the site during peak periods is anticipated with these enhancements (L -8) Intelligent Transportation Systems Connections/Upgrades (9) The South Bay area will be enhanced with an area -wide signal system upgrade prior to project completion in 2012 This system is already funded and will be implemented with or without the proposed project The improvement will provide for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) which provide real time adjustment to signal timing based upon current conditions thereby increasing capacity along major corridors ITS system enhancements are 55 currently being tested and evaluated which provide further enhanced capacity These enhancements provide advanced communication upgrades to the users of the roadway systems Items include Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS) and Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS) ATIS provides commuters with information to make route and time of day decisions The enhanced ATIS system that would be included within the South Bay ITS system will enable private sector partners to disseminate freeway and arterial traffic information to the public via paid subscription services ATMS manages the traffic system on surrounding streets Applicants for development projects within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site must provide for connectivity to the systems described above Project applicants must provide access to information disseminated by the ATIS system to patrons and employees by including at least one television monitor or equivalent equipment that is compatible with and connected to the ATIS system and that displays current commuter information from the ATIS system during all hours that the development is open for business. The monitor or equivalent equipment shall be placed in a centralized location within the development, shall be specifically identified on directory maps of the facility, shall be specifically and clearly identified as the location for obtaining current travel information and shall be identified elsewhere throughout the development with signage that directs patrons to the location Project applicants must also facilitate dissemination of information provided by the ATIS system to project employees by working with project tenants to offer fully or partially subsidized monthly subscriptions to employees (currently estimated at full cost of $5.00 per month per user) Project applicants (or successors in interest) must provide any new project tenant with information regarding subscription programs available to employees and costs thereof and shall encourage tenants to provide subsidized monthly subscriptions to their employees However, because there is no guarantee that subscription subsidies will be provided by future tenants of developments within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, no additional credit for these subscriptions can be taken except for the enhancements provided by the South Bay ITS system as presently designed (7 %, see discussion under "Future Highway System Improvements" above) (L -9) Local Street - Freeway Inter -Ties (10) This mitigation measure is applicable to buldout of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site beyond the Plaza El Segundo Project Development Applicants for development projects within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (excluding the Plaza El Segundo Project) shall fund or construct upgrades and enhancements to the El Segundo and /or South Bay ITS systems, and /or the Caltrans ITS system that singly or in combination cause an increase of 3% in the capacity of the street 56 system served by these ITS systems The 3% increase shall be measured from the calculated capacity of the system based upon existing lane configurations, plus a 10% increase on street in the City of El Segundo, and 7% increase on streets outside the City of El Segundo to reflect the El Segundo and South Bay ITS systems, respectively The upgrades /enhancements shall be selected from the following menu and approved by the relevant jurisdictional agency expansion of the fiber optic communication system, expansion of wireless communication components, provision of software components, supplemental advance system detectors, changeable message signs, closed circuit television cameras, or any other reasonably feasible upgrade or enhancement approved by the relevant jurisdictional agency The applicant shall participate in any applicable fair share fee mitigation program that will otherwise fund the foregoing upgrades /enhancements and shall receive credit for all fair share payments (L -10) Project parking/egress information system for key access/egress corridors (11) Project applicants must provide parking /egress information systems in the manner of Changeable Message Signs (CMS) along key access /egress corridors of Sepulveda Boulevard, Rosecrans Avenue, and Park Place Currently, Los Angeles County is installing CMS on major streets in the South Bay area and locations for additional CMS would be identified in coordination with Los Angeles County A centrally located kiosk system must be included in project design that can disseminate roadway conditions along the major routes This information would be utilized by the employee or patron to determine the least congested access /egress route to /from the project, thereby minimizing delay on the roadway systems Based upon recent studies in the South Bay area under trial conditions, implementation of this measure is anticipated to improve capacity at the site adjacent intersections by three percent, along major corridors of Rosecrans Avenue, Sepulveda Boulevard, and El Segundo Boulevard by two percent, and the balance of the study intersections by one percent (L -11) Plaza El Segundo From the list of mitigation measures required to address the complete implementation of the C-4 zone on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, the following specific mitigation measures must be required to address the traffic impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Physical Roadway improvements (12) El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard — Convert the existing eastbound nght -turn only lane to a shared through /right -turn lane There exists three receiving lanes on the east leg of the intersection In addition, modify the raised center 57 median to convert the westbound shared through left -turn lane to a dedicated second left turn lane and additional through lane (L- 13) (13) El Segundo Boulevard and Aviation Boulevard — Not required for Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative (14) Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard — On the westbound

will be provided This intersection's jurisdiction is shared with Manhattan Beach and Caltrans Coordination and concurrence of these agencies for implementation of these improvements would be required (L -15) (15) Rosecrans Avenue and Continental Way-- Not required for Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation, Site Trip Reductions (16) The project applicant must promote rideshare programs (bikes, rideshare matching, and transit options) as required by the City of El Segundo Transportation Demand Management Program (TDM) In addition to the traditional TDM program and to provide additional trip reduction measures, the project applicant must promote access to the Commuter View System which is being implemented by the City to provide information on congested routes The project applicant must provide a transit connection system that may be shared with other nearby retail projects to promote rise of the existing Metro Green Line service, remote employee lot during seasonal peaks and local circulator service Based upon typical usage patterns, an approximately three percent reduction in trips to and from the site during peak periods is anticipated with these enhancements (L -17) Intelligent Transportation System Connections/Upgrades (17) The South Bay area will be enhanced with an area -wide signal system upgrade prior to project completion in 2012 This system is already funded and will be implemented with or without the proposed project The improvement will provide for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) which provide real time adjustment to signal timing based upon current conditions thereby increasing capacity along major corridors ITS system enhancements are currently being tested and evaluated which provide further enhanced capacity These

subscriptions can be taken except for the enhancements provided by the South Bay ITS system as presently designed (7 %, see discussion under "Future Highway System Improvements" above) (L -18) d) Findings (1) Implementation of the mitigation measures would reduce traffic- related impacts from Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to less than significant levels with the exception of El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard during the p m peak hour and Rosecrans Avenue and Aviation Boulevard for the Saturday mid -day peak hour (2) In addition, improvements at three intersections require coordination and concurrence of Caltrans and /or other agencies for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning In the event that the concurrence of other jurisdictions cannot be obtained, impacts at these intersections would be significant and unavoidable (3) Implementation of the mitigation measures would reduce traffic- related impacts from the Plaza El Segundo Development to less than significant levels with the exception of the intersection of El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard (4) In addition, improvements at two intersections require coordination and concurrence of Caltrans and /or other agencies for the Plaza El Segundo Development In the event that the concurrence of other jurisdictions cannot be obtained, impacts at these intersections would be significant and unavoidable (5) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to transportation and traffic (6) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (7) If mitigation is not adopted by the other junsdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) 13 Utilities - Sewer a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The estimated sewage generation associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be 242,750 gpd Sewage generation would be associated with the proposed Plaza El Segundo uses and additional development up to the levels permitted under the proposed C -4 zone Continuation of the existing lumber yard in its current location would not result in any net change in sewage generation from this use The production process associated with the industrial gas production facility permitted under the proposed C-4 zone does not generate sewage Expansion of the existing RV storage facility onto the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not involve generation of sewage As such, these facilities would not require additional infrastructure or generate demand for sewage conveyance and treatment (2) As there is no sewer infrastructure directly serving the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, a significant impact to sewage service would be created unless it is mitigated by the M addition of sewer infrastructure directly serving the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (3) Additionally, a large portion of the site is not located within County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County jurisdiction, and would therefore need to be annexed into County Sanitation District 5 prior to project approval Upon annexation, local sewer infrastructure would carry sewage to County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County infrastructure and ultimately to the JWPCP According to the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, sewer service will be provided up to the levels legally permitted Because JWPCP has sufficient treatment capacity to accommodate the sewage flows associated with the existing development, there would be no impacts associated with sewage treatment Once the necessary infrastructure is established in conjunction with development that occurs within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site in accordance with the proposed C -4 zone, there would be a less than significant impact on sewer capacity and treatment services Plaza El Segundo (4) The analysis regarding sewer service and infrastructure within the Plaza El Segundo Development site is in accordance with the mitigation measure for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning that requires project specific evaluation of potential sewer impacts and no further analysis beyond that set forth in the following mitigation measures is required The analysis demonstrates that this component of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not result in new effects related to sewer service and infrastructure that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (5) The proposed Plaza El Segundo would generate an estimated 104,625 gpd of sewage As there is no sewer infrastructure directly serving the Plaza El Segundo site, the proposed Plaza El Segundo would include the construction of sewer infrastructure providing sufficient capacity to handle sewage flows that would be generated by the proposed Plaza El Segundo According to the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, sewer service will be provided up to the levels legally permitted Because JWPCP has sufficient treatment capacity to accommodate the sewage flows associated with the existing development, there would be no impacts associated with sewage capacity or treatment Once the necessary infrastructure is constructed, there would be a less than significant impact on sewer capacity and treatment services b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning 61 Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for development projects proposed to be constructed on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site This information must be examined, at the time the development project is proposed, in light of the Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration The subsequent environmental documentation must include the following (1) An analysis of sewer service to the

interceptors with a minimum 30 minute retention period to ensure these contaminants do not block the sewerage system (M- 1 18) d) Findings (1) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to sewer facilities (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR (3) If mitigation is not adopted by the other jurisdiction(s), the impact would remain significant and unavoidable and the City Council this includes the impact within the ambit of the Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOO) Utilities - Water, a) Facts /effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The estimated water consumption associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be 291,300 gpd Continuation of the existing lumber yard in its current location would not result in any net change in water consumption from this use The production process associated with the industrial gas production facility permitted under the proposed C-4 zone does not use water Expansion of the existing RV storage facility onto the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not involve additional water consumption As such, these facilities would not require additional infrastructure or generate demand for water supply or infrastructure Given the anticipated land uses at the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning and Site, and the water consumption rate of 291,300 gpd, impacts to water supply would be less than significant (2) As minimal water distribution infrastructure exists on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, provision of water supply infrastructure would be included in development permitted under the proposed C-4 zone Additional water infrastructure would be 64 required to serve future development within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Additionally, because new infrastructure is required to adequately serve the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, temporary disruptions may occur, lasting up to four hours at a time, during construction of new infrastructure and subsequent connection As the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development requires the expansion of existing water infrastructure, a significant impact to water service would occur (3) A water needs assessment determined that the City of El Segundo has sufficient water supplies to supply to proposed project Plaza El Seoundo (4) The analysis provided below regarding water service and infrastructure within the Plaza El Segundo Development site is in accordance with the measures for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning that require protect specific evaluation of potential water service impacts and no further analysis of this issue is required beyond that set forth in the following paragraphs, would be required for the Plaza El Segundo Development The analysis demonstrates that this component of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not result in new effects related to water service and infrastructure that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (5) The proposed Plaza El Segundo would consume an estimated 125,550 gpd of water The Department of Public Works has sufficient water to supply the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development's estimated demands at the site Impacts to water supply would therefore be less than signfcant (6) As minimal water distribution infrastructure exists on the Plaza El Segundo site, provision of required infrastructure would be included as part of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Additionally, because new infrastructure is required to adequately serve the Plaza El Segundo site, temporary disruptions may occur, lasting up to four hours at a time, during construction of new infrastructure and subsequent connection As the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development requires the expansion of existing water infrastructure, a significant impact to water service would occur (7) Development of the proposed Plaza El Segundo would implement the proposed C-4 zoning on a portion of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and would be within the parameters used to develop the water supply assessment for the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning I& al C) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Subsequent environmental documentation shall be prepared for development projects

which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR 15 Utilities — Solid Waste a) Facts /effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The existing structures on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site have been or are in the process of being demolished Approximately 75 percent of the solid waste generated during construction as a result of the Rezoning has been recycled and salvaged Through the remainder of construction such solid waste would continue to be recycled and M salvaged at this rate Materials not recycled would be disposed of at local landfills The amount of solid waste generated by the construction of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project would not be significant as it would not create a need for new facilities, systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional solid waste disposal facilities (2) The estimated solid waste generation associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be approximately 4,250 pounds per day Continuation of the existing lumber yard in its current location would not result in any net change in solid waste generation The production process associated with the industrial gas production facility permitted under the proposed C-4 zone does not generate solid waste Expansion of the existing RV storage facility onto the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not involve additional solid waste generation As such, these facilities would not generate demand for solid waste disposal facilities (3) Although existing landfills in Los Angeles County are near capacity, potential landfill expansion could accommodate the protected growth for the region The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be required to comply with the City's SSRP, which the City has implemented as a means of achieving the goals and requirements of AB 939 Therefore, long term operational impacts to landfills and solid waste service would be less than significant Plaza El Segundo (4) With the recycling of most of the solid waste generated by the construction phase of the Plaza El Segundo, short-term construction impacts to landfills and solid waste service would be less than significant (5) The development at Plaza El Segundo would generate approximately 2,125 pounds of solid waste per day Solid waste generated on -site would be disposed in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local regulations related to solid waste The Plaza El Segundo site would be required to comply with the City's SSRP, which the City has implemented as a means of achieving the goals and requirements of AB 939 Therefore, long term operational impacts to landfills and solid waste service would be less than significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning .• d) Development of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project must comply with all applicable City, County, and State requirements regulating solid waste disposal Cumulative impact is the responsibility of local, regional, and state agencies and

feasible, the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect must incorporate the use of recycled materials in building materials, furnishing operations and building maintenance (M 3 -1) (2) The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect must recycle all construction debris in a practical, available, and accessible manner, to the maximum extent feasible, during the demolition and construction phases (M 3 -2) (3) The design of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect must allocate space for a recycling collection area for use by both on -site employees and visitors, the design of which will adhere to siting requirements in the City's recycling ordinance The design of the collection area will facilitate source separation and collection of additional materials that may be designated as recyclable by the City in the future (M 3 -3) Plaza El Segundo (4) Where economically feasible, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development must incorporate the use

consumption associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be approximately 82,166 cf per day Continuation of the existing lumber yard in its current location would not result in any net change in natural gas consumption The production process associated with the industrial gas production facility would utilize less natural gas than the existing Air Products facility located within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, Expansion of the existing RV storage facility onto the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not involve additional natural gas consumption As such, these facilities would not generate additional demand on natural gas supplies and infrastructure According to the Southern California Gas Company, the demand for natural gas of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning can be accommodated by the existing natural gas supply available and infrastructure in the project area Therefore, natural gas impacts from the development of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be less than significant Plaza El Segundo (2) The estimated natural gas consumption by the Plaza El Segundo is approximately 41,083

Site Rezoning would be approximately 39,321 kilowatt hours (kwh) per day Continuation of the existing lumber yard in its current location would not result in any net change in electricity consumption The production process associated with the industrial gas production facility would utilize less electricity than the existing Air Products facility located within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Expansion of the existing RV storage facility onto the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would not involve additional electricity consumption As such, these facilities would not generate additional demand on electricity supplies and infrastructure SCE has indicated that they can accommodate the electricity demands of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo protect Therefore, impacts related to electricity would be less than significant Plaza El Segundo (2) The estimated electricity consumption by the Plaza El Segundo is approximately

/Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to electricity (2) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the FEIR Cultural Resources a) Facts /effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The Proposed Circulation Element Update Draft EIR requires analysis of potential impacts related to cultural resources for later projects that would implement the proposed Circulation Element Update The proposed connection of Park Place between Sepulveda Boulevard and Nash Street and connection of Park Place to Hughes Way via Allied Way through the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would constitute a project that implements the Circulation Element Update policies, The analysis provided below meets the requirement for a records search to be conducted prior to development of Circulation Element facilities within the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Based upon the analysis, construction of this component of the proposed Circulation Element Update would not result in new effects related 74 to cultural resources that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Circulation Element Update (2) As no known archaeological resources are known to exist on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, no impacts to archaeological resources are anticipated as a result of future developments It is not anticipated that any developments on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would encounter archaeological resources during construction activities (3) No paleontological resources are known to exist on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Therefore, no impacts to paleontological resources are anticipated as a result of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect (4) One historic resource has been identified on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site This resource has been identified as the brass foundry foundation located on the H Kramer portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site Future development on the H Kramer portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site could significantly impact this resource Further evaluation is necessary to determine whether this resource is eligible for listing on the California or National Registers Plaza El Seoundo (5) The records search provided above is in accordance with the mitigation measures for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning that requires site specific evaluation of potential cultural resources issues and no further analysis of this is beyond that set forth in the preceding section would be required for the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The analysis demonstrates that construction of this component of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not result in new effects related to cultural resources that were not examined in the Program EIR for the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (6) As no known archaeological resources are known to exist on the Plaza El Segundo Site, no impacts to archaeological resources are anticipated Therefore, it is not anticipated that any archaeological resources would be encountered during construction activities associated with the Plaza El Segundo (7) No paleontological resources are known to exist on the Plaza El Segundo Site Therefore, no impacts to paleontological resources are anticipated as a result of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development (8) No historic resources have been identified on the Plaza El Segundo Site All structures associated with the former industrial uses have been demolished and the Plaza El Segundo site is 75 currently undergoing sod characterization Therefore, the Plaza El Segundo Development would not impact any historic resources and no mitigation measures are required b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation_ Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Subsequent

totally avoided or reduced to a level of insignificance if the Protect is implemented Air Quality a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Construction Emissions (1) Maximum daily emissions from a typical construction project associated with the Proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning will exceed SCAQMD's daily thresholds for CO, ROG, NOx, and PM10 Therefore, emissions of these pollutants would result in significant short -term impacts (2) Between 2007 and 2012, emissions from construction activity may occur simultaneously with operational emissions 77 associated with the proposed Plaza El Segundo Combined emissions would exceed the SCAQMD's thresholds for CO, ROG, NOx and PM10, which would constitute a significant impact Operational Emissions (3) Operation of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning in the buddout year of 2012 is anticipated to result in emissions that exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds for four of the five criteria pollutants CO, PM10, ROG, and NOx. Thus, a significant impact related to these four criteria pollutants would occur Plaza El Segundo Construction Emissions (4) Maximum daily emissions associated with the construction of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development will exceed SCAQMD's daily thresholds for ROG and NOx Therefore, emissions of these pollutants would result in significant short-term impacts Operational Emissions (5) Operation of the proposed Plaza El Segundo is anticipated to result in emissions that exceed SCAQMD significance thresholds for four of the five criteria pollutants CO, PM10, ROG, and NOx Thus, a significant impact related to these four criteria pollutants is anticipated b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) Prior to implementation of specific development projects, impacts associated with construction emissions must be examined in light of this Program EIR to determine whether a new Initial Study would be required to be prepared leading to either an EIR or Negative Declaration This examination must provide quantified estimates of construction emissions based upon the specific site, schedule, and construction equipment utilization characteristics of the proposed development and compare the estimated emissions to the SCAQMD thresholds for construction emissions The analysis must incorporate the mitigation measures identified below as appropriate, along with any other mitigation measures identified by the project- specific analysis (C- 1) C) Mitigation.

outweigh this significant unavoidable impact Noise a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Construction Noise (1) The non - residential receptor property locations located at the closest northern (FedEx facility) and eastern (Pacific Theatre) edges of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be significantly impacted due to an increase in ambient noise levels at these locations of 26 0 and 14 0 decibels, respectively (2) In addition, construction activity on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would cause the ambient noise levels at the Oak Avenue residential locations to exceed 65 dBA As such, construction noise impacts associated with the 83 proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be significant Plaza El Segundo Construction Noise (3) Ambient noise levels will not increase at the Oak Avenue location as a result of construction noise sources from the Plaza El Segundo site This analysis reflects the greater distance between the Oak Avenue residential and the main part of the Plaza El Segundo Development site However, when construction activities are taking place on the 4 7 acre portion of the Plaza El Segundo Development site located immediately northeast of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans intersection, the effects would be the same as for construction activities occurring under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and a significant impact related to construction noise would occur (4) Construction activities on the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would impact the receptor locations located to the north and east of the Plaza El Segundo site, due to their proximity Specifically, ambient noise levels at these locations will experience temporary and occasional increases of 13 to 19 decibels (13 decibels at the Pacific Theatre and 19 decibels at the FedEx facility) Impacts to these receptor locations would be significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Subsequent environmental documentation must be prepared for development projects proposed to be constructed on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans site The subsequent environmental documentation must address the following (1) A project- specific construction noise analysis must be prepared that calculates, based on project- specific parameters and identification of the site - specific sensitive receptors that could be affected by construction activities, the noise levels that would be experienced at sensitive receptors located adjacent to that site If noise levels resulting from construction activity would result in temporary construction noise levels that exceed 65 dBA at a sensitive receptor, or cause an incremental increase of 5 dBA over the existing ambient sound level, if the existing ambient sound level at the sensitive receptor location is 65 dBA or more, then the study must identify feasible mitigation measures to be applied to that project from the list of mitigation measures provided below (1 -1) C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning M The following mitigation measures are required to minimize construction related noise impacts associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) A project- specific construction noise analysis must be prepared that calculates, based on project- specific parameters and identification of the site - specific sensitive receptors that could be affected by construction activities, the noise levels that would be experienced at sensitive receptors located adjacent to that site If noise levels resulting from construction activity would result in temporary construction noise levels that exceed 65 dBA at a sensitive receptor, or cause an incremental increase of 5 dBA over the existing ambient sound level, if the existing ambient sound level at the sensitive receptor location is 65 dBA or more, then the study must identify feasible mitigation measures to be applied to that project from the list of mitigation measures provided below • Construction contracts must specify that all construction equipment shall be equipped with mufflers and other applicable noise attenuation devices • During construction phases, the contractor must store and maintain equipment as far as possible from the adjacent receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site • As stated in the City of El Segundo Municipal Code, construction must be restricted to the hours of 7 00 a m to 6 p m Monday through Saturday, and prohibited at anytime on Sunday or a Federal holiday • Temporary plywood noise barriers must be constructed along the northern and eastern property lines of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site during construction, which must be high enough to block the line -of -sight between the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east (1 -1) Plaza El Seoundo The follow mitigation measures are required to minimize construction related noise impacts associated with the Plaza El Segundo Development, (2) Construction contracts must specify that all construction equipment must be equipped with mufflers and other applicable noise attenuation devices (1 -2) (3) During construction phases, the contractor must store and maintain equipment as far as possible from the adjacent receptor property locations to the north and east of the Plaza El Segundo site (1 -3) (4) As stated in the City of El Segundo Municipal Code, construction must be restricted to the hours of 7 00 a m to 6 p m Monday through Saturday, and prohibited at anytime on Sunday or a Federal holiday (1 -4) (5) Temporary plywood noise barriers must be constructed along the 4 5 acre portion of the Plaza El Segundo site south of the UPRR tracks during construction, which must be high enough to block the line -of -sight (a minimum of 8 feet above existing grade) between the Plaza El Segundo site and receptor property locations to the southwest, north and east (1 -5) d) Finding Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezornn (1) Temporary construction noise impacts at the FedEx and Pacific Theatres locations would be significant and unavoidable even with the implementation of all feasible mitigation measures Plaza El Segundo (2) Temporary construction noise impacts at the FedEx facility would be significant and unavoidable even with the implementation of all feasible mitigation measures (3) The City finds that incorporation of such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of the City The City finds that although the temporary construction related noise impacts will remain significant and unavoidable, no feasible mitigation measures are available to avoid or lessen the impact below a level of significance The Project benefits set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations outweigh this significant unavoidable impact Transportation and Circulation a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would significantly impact two intersections during the p m peak hour or Saturday mid -day peak hour These intersections are Sepulveda Boulevard/El Segundo Boulevard in the p m peak hour and Rosecrans Avenue /Aviation Boulevard in the Saturday mid -day peak period (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is estimated to contribute approximately 240 trips in the southbound direction on the San Diego Freeway between the 1 -105 interchange and El M Segundo Boulevard During the afternoon peak hour, this number of trips would cause the D/C ratio to increase by 0 02, with a resulting LOS of F(0), which would constitute a significant impact at this location (3) Significant impacts were identified for the southbound 1- 405 between the 1 -105 Interchange and El Segundo Boulevard for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The nearest arterial CMP monitoring stations are located at the intersections of Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard and El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard These intersections would be significantly impacted by the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning with respect to the CMP would be significant Plaza El Segundo (4) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would significantly and unavoidably impact one intersection during p m peak hour (Sepulveda Boulevard/El Segundo Boulevard) (5) The proposed Plaza El Segundo Development is estimated to contribute approximately 162 trips in the southbound direction on the San Diego Freeway between the 1 -105 interchange and El Segundo Boulevard During the afternoon peak hour, this number of trips would cause the D/C ratio to increase by 0 01, with a resulting LOS of F(0), which would be a less than significant impact at this location (6) The nearest arterial CMP monitoring stations are located at the intersections of Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard and El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard These intersections would be significantly impacted by the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development with respect to the CMP would be significant b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required. C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard Convert the existing eastbound right -turn only lane to a shared through /right -turn lane There exists three receiving lanes on the east leg of the intersection In addition, modify the raised center median to convert the westbound shared through left -turn lane to a dedicated second left turn lane and additional through lane (L- 1) 87 Plaza El Segundo From the list of mitigation measures required to address the complete implementation of the C -4 zone on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, the following specific mitigation measures must be required to address the traffic impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development (2) El Segundo Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard — Convert the existing eastbound right -turn only lane to a shared through /right -turn lane There exists three receiving lanes on the east leg of the intersection In addition, modify the raised center median to convert the westbound shared through left -turn lane to a dedicated second left turn lane and additional through lane (L- 13) d) Finding Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) Because no additional mitigation measures are available, impacts would be significant and unavoidable at the two intersections where the City's level of service standard would be exceeded (2) The two intersections that would exceed the City's level of service threshold, even after implementation of all feasible intersection improvements, are Sepulveda Blvd /El Segundo Blvd Aviation Blvd /Rosecrans Ave (3) There is no mechanism available for providing fair share contributions to mitigate freeway impacts Therefore impacts to one freeway segment (southbound San Diego Freeway between the 1 -105 interchange and El Segundo Boulevard) would be significant and unavoidable (4) In addition, improvements at three intersections require coordination and concurrence of Caltrans and /or other agencies In the event that the concurrence of other jurisdictions cannot be obtained, impacts at these intersections would be significant and unavoidable Plaza El Seaundo (5) Because no additional mitigation measures are available, impacts would be significant and unavoidable at one intersection where the City's level of service standard would be exceeded (6) The intersection that would exceed the City's level of service threshold, even after implementation of all feasible intersection improvements, are M Sepulveda Blvd /El Segundo Blvd (7) In addition, improvements at two intersections require coordination and concurrence of Caltrans and /or other agencies In the event that the concurrence of other jurisdictions cannot be obtained, impacts at these intersections would be significant and unavoidable (8) The City finds that incorporation of such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of the City The City finds that although the transportation and circulation impact will remain significant and unavoidable, no feasible mitigation measures are available to avoid or lessen the impact below a level of significance The Project benefits set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations outweigh this significant unavoidable impact E. Insignificant Cumulative Impacts. The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings in this matter do not identify or contain substantial evidence which identifies significant adverse cumulative environmental effects associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative in conjunction with the related Projects identified in Section III B of the DEIR (collectively, the 'Related Projects ") with respect to the areas listed below 1 Aesthetics 2 Air Quality 3 Agricultural Resources 4 Biological Resources 5 Cultural Resources 6 Geology and Sods 7 Hydrology and Water Quality 8 Hazards and Hazardous Materials 9 Land Use 10 Mineral Resources 11 Noise 12 Public Services 13 Recreation 14 Utilities 99 a) Sewer b) Water c) Natural Gas d) Electricity F. The City Council finds that although the following cumulative environmental effects were identified as potentially significant in the FEIR for the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, changes or alterations within the responsibility and jurisdiction of other public agencies and the City have been adopted by such other agencies or can and should be adopted by such other agency to avoid or lessen the potential significant environmental effects listed below to a level of insignificance 1 Transportation and Circulation a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonin (1) Traffic resulting from the 52 related projects could contribute to potential future deterioration at the study intersections This cumulative analysis was based on a worst -case set of assumptions where all of the related projects were constructed and built to the intensity currently envisioned In addition, none of the traffic enhancements which may be associated with the 52 related projects were included in the analysis It is likely that traffic conditions would be better than noted in the EIR analysis (2) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would contribute to a potentially significant cumulative impact at nine intersections located wholly or partly within the City of El Segundo (3) The cumulative effects identified are anticipated to occur with or without the project with the exception of the impact at the Park Place and Nash Street, Park Place and Douglas Street, and Rosecrans Avenue and Douglas Street intersections These impacts are reduced to a level of insignificance with traffic improvements proposed with the exception of p m peak hour period at Rosecrans Avenue and Douglas Street This is a worst - case analysis which does not include specific improvement measures which may be required of the cumulative projects, therefore, conditions are anticipated to be better than stated in the Draft EIR 11 Plaza El Segundo (4) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would contribute to a significant cumulative impact at seven intersections located wholly or partly within the City of El Segundo (5) The cumulative effects identified are anticipated to occur with or without the protect with the exception of the impact at the Rosecrans Avenue and Douglas Street intersection (p m peak hour) and the Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard intersection during the Saturday mid -day peak These impacts are reduced to a level of insignificance with traffic improvements proposed by the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect with the exception of the p m peak period at Rosecrans Avenue and Douglas Street This is a worst case analysis which does not include specific improvement measures which may be required of the cumulative protects, therefore, conditions are anticipated to be better than noted However, the incremental effect of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, in connection with the effects of past, present and probable future projects would be cumulatively considerable at seven intersections located wholly or partly within the City of El Segundo b) Subsequent Environmental Documentation (1) No subsequent environmental documentation is required C) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezonin (1) In order to assist in addressing future cumulative traffic deterioration, the City of El Segundo through its Traffic Congestion Mitigation Fee Ordinance will require the developer of a specific protect to make a "fair share" contribution for programmed roadway improvements In addition, project implementation of the signal system enhancements described above will benefit the entire system and reduce cumulative impacts along the roadway corridors (L -12) Plaza El Segundo (2) In order to assist in addressing future cumulative traffic deterioration, the protect applicant must comply with the City of El Segundo Traffic Congestion Mitigation Fee Ordinance and make a "fair share" contribution for programmed roadway improvements In addition, protect implementation of the signal system enhancements described above will benefit the entire system and reduce cumulative impacts along the roadway corridors (L -19) d) Finding Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning 91 (1) Payment of the El Segundo Traffic Mitigation Fee would reduce impacts related to cumulative traffic growth at intersections that are wholly or partly within the City of El Segundo to less than significant Plaza El Segundo (2) Payment of the El Segundo Traffic Mitigation Fee would reduce impacts related to cumulative traffic growth at intersections that are wholly or partly within the City of El Segundo to less than significant (3) The City Council finds that the FEIR and the record of proceedings do not identify or contain substantial evidence identifying a significant cumulative contribution to any significant unavoidable environmental effects of the Protect with respect to Transportation and Traffic. G. Significant Unavoidable Cumulative Impacts. The City Council finds that in response to each impact identified below, changes or alterations have been required or incorporated into the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, which lessen the significant adverse environmental impact However, these impacts cannot be totally avoided or reduced to a level of insignificance if the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative are implemented The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative contribution to these impacts would be cumulatively considerable under CEQA Population. Housing, and Employment a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo (1) A review of the related protects listed in Table III -1 of the Draft EIR, confirms the protections for slow housing growth in the region, only 10,628 new housing units are currently proposed In addition, approximately 62,646 jobs would be created by the same list of cumulative projects (see Table IV J -3 of the EIR) (2) Based on the substantial disparity between projected subregional job growth and housing construction, there will be a significant cumulative impact on population growth and housing demand b) Mitigation Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning F, (1) There are no available mitigation measures to address the incremental contribution of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to the significant cumulative impact related to population growth and housing demand Plaza El Segundo (2) There are no available mitigation measures to address the incremental contribution of the proposed Plaza El Segundo to the significant cumulative impact related to population growth and housing demand C) Finding (1) The City Council finds that although mitigation can be incorporated into the Protect to reduce the severity of the Protect - specific population growth and housing demand impacts, no feasible mitigation measures exist to address significant and unavoidable cumulative population and growth and housing demand impacts The Protect benefits set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations outweigh these significant unavoidable impacts 2 Transportation and Traffic a) Facts /Effects Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (1) The impacts of cumulative traffic growth were incorporated into the traffic modeling for the Protect (2) There is no mechanism available for providing fair share contributions to improvements that would mitigate cumulative traffic impacts at six intersections located wholly outside the City of El Segundo Therefore, cumulative traffic impacts would be significant and unavoidable at the following intersections (although such impacts would exist with or without the protect) • Rosecrans Avenue and Hindry Avenue, p m peak hour • Rosecrans Avenue and 1-405 SB Off -Ramp, a m and p m peak hour • Marine Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour • Marine Avenue and Aviation Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour • Manhattan Beach Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour 93 Manhattan Beach Boulevard and Aviation Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour (3) No sub - regional traffic impact fee has been established or proposed for "fair- share" contributions to regional transportation improvements that might reduce the severity of cumulative traffic impacts Plaza El Segundo (4) There is no mechanism available for providing fair share contributions to improvements that would mitigate cumulative traffic impacts at six intersections located wholly outside the City of El Segundo Therefore, cumulative traffic impacts would be significant and unavoidable at the following intersections • Rosecrans Avenue and Hindry Avenue, p m peak hour • Rosecrans Avenue and 1 -405 SB Off -Ramp, a m and p m peak hour • Marine Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour • Marine Avenue and Aviation Boulevard, a m, and p m peak hour • Manhattan Beach Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour • Manhattan Beach Boulevard and Aviation Boulevard, a m and p m peak hour b) Finding (1) The City Council finds that although mitigation can be incorporated into the Project to reduce the severity of the Project- specific traffic impact, no feasible mitigation measures exist to address significant and unavoidable cumulative traffic impacts outside the City of El Segundo The Protect benefits set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations outweigh these significant unavoidable cumulative impacts 3 Solid Waste a) Fact/Effects (1) Implementation of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning in conjunction with the various related projects identified in Section III B of the Draft EIR as well as cumulative growth in the County of Los Angeles would further increase demand on landfill capacity Additional capacity to accommodate the cumulative disposal needs of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and related protects is the responsibility of local, county, 94 and state solid waste management agencies and may become available as these agencies develop solutions to meet the future disposal needs at a regional level (e g , expanding existing landfills, transporting waste to other landfills, converting waste to energy, recycling and waste reduction) (2) Similar to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, the related projects would be subject to the source reduction and recycling requirements established by the local jurisdiction in accordance with AB 939 (1 e , divert 50 percent of the solid waste generated from landfills through waste reduction, recycling and composting) As with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, future projects would be required to participate in recycling programs, thus reducing the amount of solid waste to be disposed of at the landfills described above (3) However, because the precise solutions to meeting the need for landfill capacity are not known and are the responsibility of other agencies, the incremental contribution of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, in conjunction with the contributions of related projects, would be cumulatively considerable b) Finding (1) The City Council finds that while mitigation is not needed to reduce Project- specific solid waste impacts, no feasible mitigation measures exist to address significant and unavoidable cumulative impacts caused by solid waste generation The Project benefits set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations outweigh these significant unavoidable impacts H. Project Alternatives. 1 Alternatives Eliminated From Further Consideration Various alternatives to the Proposed Action were considered and dismissed without further study because they faded to accomplish the objectives of the Project or were otherwise not feasible CEQA Guidelines § 15126 6(c) requires EIRs to identify any alternatives that were considered by the lead agency but were rejected as infeasible during the scoping process, and briefly explain the reasons underlying the lead agency's determination Alternatives involving residential development were dismissed as being infeasible for two reasons First, it may not be possible to remediate the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site to the levels required in order to develop residential uses In the event that it is possible, it is likely cost prohibitive Second, the City of El Segundo does not permit residential developments east of Sepulveda Boulevard because the City cannot adequately support residential developments in this area with City services 95 Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning a) No Protect Alternative (1) Description Under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning No Project Alternative, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would remain under its current Industrial General Plan designation and zoning classifications Reasonably foreseeable activities that would occur within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site under the No Protect Alternative include 1) characterization and remediation activities that are currently ongoing on a portion of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would continue under the oversight of the cognizant regulatory agencies, 2) existing operative uses within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site (Air Products, Learned Lumber) would remain in their current locations, and 3) no new development would occur on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site No new development is anticipated because, other than the existing operating uses, there is no known interest in development of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, other than the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning No Protect Alternative therefore assumes the continuation of existing conditions on the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site as well as development of the related protects described in Section III B (Related Protects) of the EIR (2) Comparison to Protect Under the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning No Protect Alternative, no additional traffic would be generated The existing uses on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would remain in their present locations and there would be no change in current operations Traffic generated by these uses would remain unchanged Aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, geology and soils (except soil erosion impacts), hydrology, land use, noise, population, housing and employment, public service, transportation and traffic, utilities, and cultural resources impacts would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and less than significant Hazards and hazardous materials impacts of the No Protect alternative would be greater than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning because only a portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be characterized and remediated (3) Findings The City Council rejects this alternative because it does not meet the objectives of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of El Segundo This alternative would not facilitate the productive reuse of a former industrial site This alternative would not provide improve traffic circulation by providing major road improvements that would provide significant overriding benefits to the community, This alternative would not provide for employment opportunities or generate significant local revenues through business license fees, property taxes and sales taxes b) Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative (1) Description Under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, the standards of the proposed C-4 zone would be modified to limit the mix of land uses permitted within the 70 8 net acre portion of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site that would be redesignated in the General Plan for Commercial Center use and rezoned to Commercial Center (C-4) in order to reduce total traffic generation from the Site Total permitted square footage within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would remain the same (850,000 total square feet), but the mix of uses would be limited to the following 590,000 square feet of shopping center, 185,000 square feet of large scale retail, 50,000 square feet of grocery store, 10,000 square feet of fast food restaurants, and 15,000 square feet of sit -down restaurants Total traffic generation under this alternative would be reduced by approximately 11 7% in the p m peak hour and approximately 8 8% on a daily basis All other components of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, including the construction of new roadways, relocation of railroad rights -of -way, and stormwater retention basin would remain the same as the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning under this alternative (2) Comparison to Project Under this alternative, it is estimated that the development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would generate a total of approximately 25,859 daily trips, 1,033 trips in the a m peak hour, 2,346 trips during the p m peak hour, and 3,379 trips during the Saturday mid -day peak period Of the 25 study intersections analyzed, it is anticipated that the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would significantly impact 13 intersections during the a m peak hour, p m peak hour, or Saturday mid -day peak, or combinations thereof (see Table VI -1 of the Draft EIR) The same number of impacted intersections and the same specific intersections as identified would be impacted under the alternative as under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning protect Therefore, traffic impacts associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would be the same as those associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and would be significant and unavoidable Air quality would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and less than significant, but would remain significant and unavoidable Utility impacts related to sewer, water and electricity would be slightly less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The project- related utility impacts would remain less than significant Aesthetics, biological resources, geology and sods, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology, land use, noise, population, housing and employment, public services, utilities (solid waste and natural gas), and cultural resources impacts would be the same as than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The short-term noise and traffic impacts would be significant and unavoidable (3) Findings 97 The City Council adopts this alternative because it meets the protect objectives of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of El Segundo described in Chapter II (Page II -14) of the Final EIR while reducing the traffic impacts by a significant amount (117% in the p m peak period and 8 8 % of daily trips) C) Alternative Land Use Alternative (1) Description Under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Alternate Land Use Alternative, the existing zoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be modified to allow development of proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site with industrial uses at a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 0 42 1 This would result in the development of approximately 1,548,000 square feet of industrial park within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site and represents a reduction in the development density permitted under the existing zoning of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site The current zoning would allow a 0 6 FAR (2,211,142 square feet of industrial uses) Roadway extensions through the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be provided, although likely in a different configuration than under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Storm water detention facilities would be provided that would be sufficient to handle storm water runoff generated under this alternative and railroad rights -of -way would be relocated as necessary (2) Comparison to Protect Under the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Alternate Land Use Alternative, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be permitted to be developed with up to 1,548,000 square feet of industrial park Under this alternative, it is estimated that the development on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning site would generate a total of approximately 10,774 daily trips, 1,300 in the a m peak hour, 1,331 trips in the p m peak hour, and 542 trips during the Saturday mid -day peak hour This is less traffic than would be produced by the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning However, an increase in the amount of truck traffic in the area is anticipated under this alternative Under this alternative, 9 intersections would still be significantly impacted during the a m peak hour, p m peak hour or Saturday mid -day peak hour, or combinations thereof (Table VI -7) This is four less significantly impacted intersections than under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Therefore, traffic impacts associated with the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Alternate Land Use Alternative would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project Air quality impacts would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, but would remain significant and unavoidable Operational noise impacts would be slightly less than the Plaza El Segundo development Public services (police protection) and utility (sewer and water) impacts would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The protect- related impacts would remain less than significant M Biological resources, geology and sods, land use, construction noise, and cultural resources would be the same as the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The short-term noise and traffic impacts would be significant and unavoidable Aesthetics, air quality (construction and operational emissions), hydrology, hazards and hazardous materials, population, housing and employment, public services (fire protection), and utility impacts (solid waste, natural gas, and electricity) would be slightly greater than the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, but would remain as insignificant impacts The sewer and water usage would increase by negligible amounts The project- related impacts would remain less than significant (3) Findings The City Council rejects this alternative because it does not meet the objectives of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of El Segundo to the same extent as the proposed project, This alternative would not provide improve traffic circulation by providing major road improvements that would provide significant overriding benefits to the community This alternative would not provide for employment opportunities or generate significant local revenues through business license fees, property taxes and sales taxes to the same extent as the proposed project d) Rezoning of Plaza El Segundo Development Site Only (1) Description Under this alternative, the City would not take action with respect to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning project, but rather would approve the General Plan Amendment and rezoning of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site to the new Commercial Center land use designation and Commercial Center (C -4) zone Uses presently located within the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, but outside the boundary of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would remain the same No new development is anticipated in this portion of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site because, other than the existing operating uses, there is no known interest in development of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, other than the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development (2) Comparison to Protect Under this alternative, impacts would be the same as identified throughout this EIR for the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The only difference from the analysis presented in this EIR would relate to land use compatibility Under the alternative, the uses adjacent to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would be industrial, rather than ultimately commercial, as would occur under the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Placing commercial and industrial land uses adjacent to one another would not result in land use conflicts and no impacts related to land use compatibility would occur Impacts of this alternative would be similar to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning with respect to land use compatibility and the same as the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development for all other impacts .. (3) Findings The City Council rejects this alternative because it does not meet the objectives of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of El Segundo to the same extent as the proposed project This alternative would not provide improve traffic circulation by providing major road improvements that would provide significant overriding benefits to the community because it would not include the extension of Park Place though to Nash Street This alternative would not provide for employment opportunities or generate significant local revenues through business license fees, property taxes and sales taxes to the same extent as the proposed project Plaza El Segundo a) No Project Alternative (1) Description Under the Plaza El Segundo No Project Alternative, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would remain under its current Industrial General Plan designations and zoning classifications Reasonably foreseeable activities that would occur within the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site under the No Project Alternative would include 1) characterization and remediation activities that are currently ongoing on a portion of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would continue under the oversight of the cognizant regulatory agencies, and 2) no new development would occur on the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site No new development is anticipated because there is no known interest in development of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site, other than the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The proposed Plaza El Segundo No Project Alternative therefore assumes the continuation of existing conditions on the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site as well as development of the related projects described in Section III B (Related Projects) of the EIR (2) Comparison to Project Under the Plaza El Segundo No Project Alternative, no additional traffic would be generated The existing uses on the Plaza El Segundo site would remain in their present locations and there would be no change in current operations Traffic generated by these uses would remain unchanged Aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, geology and soils (except sod erosion impacts), hydrology, hazards and hazardous materials, land use, noise, population, housing and employment, public services, transportation and traffic, utilities, and cultural resources impacts would be less than the proposed Plaza El Segundo site and less than significant (3) Findings The City Council rejects this alternative because it does not meet the objectives of the Plaza El Segundo Development to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of El Segundo This alternative would not facilitate the productive reuse of a former industrial site This alternative would not provide improve traffic circulation by providing major road improvements that would provide significant overriding benefits to the community This alternative would not 100 provide for employment opportunities or generate significant local revenues through business license fees, property taxes and sales taxes b) Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative (1) Description Under the Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, the Plaza El Segundo site boundaries and total proposed square footage would remain the same (425,000 square feet), but the mix of uses within the proposed Plaza El Segundo would be modified to result in an approximately 17% reduction in p m peak hour traffic generation and an approximately 13% reduction in daily traffic generation The mix of uses that would be contained within the proposed Plaza El Segundo under the Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would include 165,000 square feet of shopping center, 185,000 square feet of large scale retail, 50,000 square foot grocery store, 10,000 square feet of fast food restaurants, and 15,000 square feet of sit -down restaurants The proposed land uses and density would be within the requirements of the proposed C -4 zone All other components of the proposed Plaza El Segundo, including the construction of new roadways (Park Place east of Sepulveda and Allied Way within the Plaza El Segundo site) and storm water retention basin would remain the same as the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development under this alternative (2) Comparison to Project Under the Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative, the size of the proposed development would be the same, however, the mix of uses would be different in order to reduce the amount of traffic generated Under this alternative, it is estimated that the development on the Plaza El Segundo site would generate a total of approximately 16,645 daily trips, with 779 a m peak hour trips, 1,477 p m peak hour trips, and 2,205 Saturday mid -day peak period trips Of the 25 study intersections analyzed, it is anticipated that the Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would significantly impact six intersections during the a m peak hours, p m peak hour, Saturday mid -day peak hour, or combinations thereof (see Table VI -14) This is one less impacted intersection than would be impacted under the proposed Plaza El Segundo protect Therefore, traffic impacts associated with the Plaza El Segundo Reduced Traffic Alternative would be less than those under the proposed Plaza El Segundo project Air quality would be less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and less than significant, but would remain significant and unavoidable Operational noise impacts would be slightly less than the Plaza El Segundo development Utility impacts related to sewer, water and electricity would be slightly less than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The protect- related utility impacts would remain less than significant Aesthetics, biological resources, geology and soils, hydrology, hazards and hazardous materials, land use, construction noise, population, housing and employment, public services, and utility impacts (solid waste and natural gas), and cultural resources would be the same as than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The short-term noise and traffic impacts would be significant and unavoidable 101 (3) Findings The City Council adopts this alternative since it meets all of the protect objectives described in Chapter II (Page II -14) of the Final EIR while reducing the traffic impacts by a significant amount (17% in p m peak period and 13% of daily trips) C) Alternative Land Use Alternative (1) Description Under the Plaza El Segundo Alternate Land Use Alternative, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would be developed with industrial uses at a floor area ratio (FAR) of 0 42 1 This would result in the development of an approximately 730,000 square foot industrial park within the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site Roadway extensions through the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development site would be provided, although likely in a different configuration than under the proposed Plaza El Segundo Storm water detention facilities would be provided that would be sufficient to handle storm water runoff generated under this alternative (2) Comparison to Project Under the Plaza El Segundo Alternate Land Use Alternative, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site would be developed with up to 730,000 square feet of industrial park uses Under this alternative, it is estimated that the development would generate approximately 5,081 daily trips, 613 a m peak hour trips, 628 p m peak hour trips, and 256 Saturday mid -day peak period trips This is less traffic than would be produced under the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, although truck traffic would increase under this Alternative However, under this alternative, three intersections would be significantly impacted during the a m peak hour, p m peak hour, Saturday mid -day peak hour, or combination thereof (Table VI -21) This is four fewer than would be significantly impacted under the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Therefore, traffic impacts associated with the Plaza El Segundo Alternate Land Use Alternative would be lower than the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development Air quality impacts would be less than the proposed Plaza El Segundo development, but would remain significant and unavoidable Operational noise and public services (police), utility (sewer, water and electricity) impacts would be lower than the Plaza El Segundo development Geology and soils, land use, and cultural resources would be the same as than the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Aesthetics, air quality (short -term construction emissions), biological resources, hydrology, hazards and hazardous materials, short -term construction noise, population, housing and employment, public services (fire), utility (solid waste and natural gas) impacts would be greater than the Plaza El Segundo development, but would remain as insignificant impacts (3) Findings The City Council rejects this alternative because it does not meet the objectives of the Plaza El Segundo Development to reuse and redevelop the site to provide commercial facilities needed by the City of EI Segundo to the same extent as the 102 proposed project This alternative would not provide improve traffic circulation by providing major road improvements that would provide significant overriding benefits to the community This alternative would not provide for employment opportunities or generate significant local revenues through business license fees, property taxes and sales taxes to the same extent as the proposed project d) Rezoning of Plaza El Segundo Development Site Only (1) Description There is no equivalent alternative for the Plaza El Segundo site because this alternative would approve only the Plaza El Segundo portion of the Sepulveda Rosecrans Site Rezoning (2) Comparison to Project There is no equivalent alternative for the Plaza El Segundo site because this alternative would approve only the Plaza El Segundo portion of the Sepulveda Rosecrans Site Rezoning so no comparison is necessary (3) Findings There is no equivalent alternative for the Plaza El Segundo site because this alternative would approve only the Plaza El Segundo portion of the Sepulveda Rosecrans Site Rezoning so no findings are necessary Findings Regarding Alternatives a) Reasonable Range of Alternatives The City Council finds that that (a) the FEIR describes a reasonable range of alternatives to the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development, which could feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development and would avoid or substantially lessen any significant effects of the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development, and (b) the City Council evaluated the comparative merits of the alternatives b) Environmentally Superior Alternative CEQA Guidelines § 15126 6 requires that an analysis of alternatives to the Project identify one alternative as the environmentally superior alternative Furthermore, if the environmentally superior alternative is the "No Project' alternative, the EIR must also identify the environmentally superior alternative from among the other alternatives Sepulveda Rosecrans Site Rezoning The No Project Alternative would be environmentally superior to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, as it would avoid the significant and unavoidable impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning related to traffic, construction and operational air emissions and construction noise However, the No Project Alternative would not meet any of the objectives of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning 103 The Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would be environmentally superior to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning as it would reduce the traffic impacts of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and reduce significant and unavoidable operational air emissions compared to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, although not to less than significant levels The Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would meet most of the objectives of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The Rezoning of Plaza El Segundo Development Site Alternative would be environmentally superior to the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning as it would constitute a reduced project (425,000 total square feet) compared to the full buildout of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning (850,000 square feet) As such, impacts of this alternative would be lower with respect to all issue areas since the alternative would be smaller and would utilize less site area than would the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The Rezoning of Plaza El Segundo Development Site Alternative would not meet the objectives of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning, but would meet the objectives of the Plaza El Segundo Development Therefore, the Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would be the environmentally superior alternative because it would reduce impacts compared to the proposed Sepulveda/Rosecrans Site Rezoning and meets most of the project objectives Plaza El Segundo The No Project Alternative would be environmentally superior to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, as it would avoid the significant and unavoidable impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development related to traffic, construction and operational air emissions and construction noise However, the No Project Alternative would not meet any of the objectives of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development The Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would be environmentally superior to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development as it would reduce the traffic impacts of the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development and reduce significant and unavoidable operational air emissions compared to the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development, although not to less than significant levels The Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative would meet most of the objectives of the proposed Plaza EI Segundo Development The City Council has determined to adopt the Environmentally Superior Alternative, in substantially the same form as analyzed in the Final EIR, rather than the project as proposed 111. GROWTH- INDUCING IMPACTS OF THE PROPOSED ACTION AND SIGNIFICANT IRREVERSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES. The City Council finds on the basis of the FOR and the record of proceedings for the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative that A Growth Inducing Impacts Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The Sepulveda/Rosecrans Site Rezoning would foster economic growth by adding new employees and customers to the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site, who could, 104 in turn, patronize other local businesses and services in the area Additionally, as described in Section IV J (Population, Housing & Employment), short -term employment opportunities would be provided during the construction of developments on the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site With the full implementation of the site rezoning, the developments would provide employment for approximately 1,904 persons The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning does not include housing and therefore would not include (direct) permanent population growth Should the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning cause newly - generated employees to relocate to the City of El Segundo or the surrounding community, it is expected that the maximum (worst - case) housing demand generated by the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning could be accommodated by the existing housing stock within the average 9 7 -mile commute distance from the protect site, without generating demand for new housing construction Therefore, no significant population, housing or employment impacts would be created by the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The protect site is located within a highly developed urban setting Off -site water mains, sewer mains, storm drains, and utility infrastructure adjacent to the site would adequately service the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning Further, with mitigation, the Sepulveda/Rosecrans Site Rezoning would be adequately served by existing public services such as fire /emergency and police in the vicinity of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Rezoning Site The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not induce growth in an area that is not already developed with infrastructure to accommodate such growth Therefore, the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would not result in significant growth inducing impacts Plaza El Segundo As described in Section IV J (Population, Housing & Employment), short -term employment opportunities would be provided during the construction of the Plaza El Segundo Upon completion of the Plaza El Segundo, it would provide employment for approximately 952 persons The Plaza El Segundo Development does not include housing and therefore would not include (direct) permanent population growth Should the Plaza El Segundo Development cause newly- generated employees to relocate to the City of El Segundo or the surrounding community, it is expected that the housing demand could be accommodated by the existing housing stock within the average 9 7 -mile commute distance Therefore, no significant population, housing or employment impacts would be created by the Plaza El Segundo Development The Plaza El Segundo site is located within a highly developed urban setting Off -site water mains, sewer mains, storm drains, and utility infrastructure adjacent to the site would adequately service the Plaza El Segundo Further, with mitigation, the Plaza El Segundo Development would be adequately served by existing public services such as fire /emergency and police The Plaza El Segundo Development would not induce growth in an area that is not already developed with infrastructure to accommodate such growth Therefore, the Plaza El Segundo Development would not result in significant growth inducing impacts B Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning The type and level of construction associated with the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would consume limited, slowly renewable, and non- renewable resources Such resources would include the following construction supplies lumber and other forest products, aggregate materials used in concrete and asphalt such as sand, gravel, and stone, metals such as steel, copper, and lead; petrochemical construction materials 105 such as plastics, and water Fossil fuels such as gasoline and oil would also be consumed in the use of construction vehicles and equipment Subsequent use and maintenance of the proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would also require the long -term consumption of these nonrenewable resources at reduced levels typical for commercial development These would include energy resources such as electricity and natural gas, as well as petroleum -based fuels required for the increased number of vehicle trips to be generated by the protect The proposed Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning would add traffic to local roads, and would result in long -term increases in ambient air pollution and noise levels Potential irreversible damage from environmental accidents associated with the protect are unlikely and would be avoided by compliance with the mitigation measures proposed in this EIR as well as existing city, county, state, and federal safety regulations Plaza El Segundo Similar to that discussed above, the proposed Plaza El Segundo Development would consume limited, slowly renewable, and non - renewable resources during construction Such resources would include the following construction supplies lumber and other forest products, aggregate materials used in concrete and asphalt such as sand, gravel, and stone, metals such as steel, copper, and lead, petrochemical construction materials such as plastics, and water Fossil fuels such as gasoline and oil would also be consumed in the use of construction vehicles and equipment Subsequent use and maintenance of the proposed Plaza El Segundo would also require the long -term consumption of these nonrenewable resources These would include energy resources such as electricity and natural gas, as well as petroleum - based fuels required for the increased number of vehicle trips to be generated by the Plaza El Segundo The proposed Plaza El Segundo would add traffic to local roads, and would result in long -term increases in ambient air pollution and noise levels Potential irreversible damage from environmental accidents associated with the protect are unlikely and would be avoided by compliance with the mitigation measures proposed in this EIR as well as existing city, county, state, and federal safety regulations IV. STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS. The City Council finds on the basis of the FEIR and the record of proceedings in this matter that the unavoidable significant impacts of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative are acceptable when balanced against the benefits of the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative This determination is based on the following factors and the substantial public, social, economic, and environmental benefits flowing from the Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development Reduced Traffic Generation Alternative as identified in the FEIR and the record of proceedings in the matter Each benefit set forth below constitutes an overriding consideration warranting approval of each protect, independent of other benefits, despite each and every avoidable impact (a) Development of a property that is substantially vacant and is currently underutilized (b) The protect would facilitate the environmental remediation of existing subsurface soil and groundwater contamination on and around the property associated with the previous use of the protect site 106 (c) Re- designation and rezoning of industrial property for more productive commercial uses (d) Elimination of blighted areas and providing an attractive urban destination (e) Increasing and further stabilizing the City's tax base through development of new commercial businesses (f) Providing both short-term construction employment and long -term permanent employment (approximately 1,904 jobs for the Rosecrans/ Sepulveda Site Rezoning of which approximately 952 jobs would be associated with the Plaza El Segundo Development ) within the City of El Segundo (g) Increase in employment opportunities for the City's residents (h) The Plaza El Segundo Development will add to the diversification of the economic base in the City by providing for new larger format retail uses that do not currently exist in the City (1) The development will provide significant fiscal benefit to the City by generating additional business license and sales tax revenue for the City's General Fund �) The development will Increase City revenues through the generation of taxes that outweigh the City's cost of services (k) The Plaza El Segundo Development will generate an annual net fiscal benefit (revenues versus City expenses) that would range from approximately $1 082,049 to $1,611,424 in the first year of operation, rising to a range of approximately $1,307,922 to $1,958,987 in the eighth year of operation (1) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning is immediately adjacent to the 2,000,000 square -foot Continental Park office development, the 2,000,000 square -foot Raytheon campus, and other office buildings along the Rosecrans Avenue commercial corridor The proposed project will provide additional retail uses and services to these employment centers (m) Development of a project that is consistent with the Elements of the General Plan (n) The project would provide a comprehensive and coordinated design of the entire project site, including landscape amenities to substantially improve the aesthetic appearance of the site and the surrounding area (o) The project would reduce the maximum permitted floor area ratio on the property from 0 6 1 to 0 275 1 (p) Funding on -site and off -site Circulation Element planned improvements, including new and widened roadways, intersections, signals, medians and landscaping in the project vicinity at no cost to the City (q) The Project will include the construction of two new roadways (Park Place and Allied Way extensions) that will further the City's goal of implementing 107 the 2004 Circulation Element Master Plan of Streets and improving the circulation system in the southeast quadrant of the City (r) The Sepulveda /Rosecrans Site Rezoning will include the widening of Sepulveda Boulevard on the east side of the street to provide acceleration and deceleration lanes to serve the project and widening a portion of the north side of Rosecrans Avenue to provide a dedicated right -turn lane The developer will dedicate property for the lane widening providing a public benefit to the entire City (s) Expansion of the planned ITS network that will increase its effectiveness in relieving congestion (t) Contribution of $1,500,000 to the City aquatic related recreational uses (u) Contribution of approximately $250,000 to enhance, promote and maintain the public improvements adjacent to businesses and property owners in the Downtown Specific Plan area of El Segundo (v) Contribution of approximately $250,000 in traffic impact mitigation fees to offset the impacts of the project on public roadway infrastructure (w) Contribution of approximately $119,000 in police, fire, and library, mitigation fees to offset the impacts of the project on public services. (x) A development agreement, including all of the consideration and benefits received by the City thereunder, which provides the City with certainty respecting the development process, including but not limited to the potential uses that will be developed on the property V. RECIRCULATION. A Facts 1 The City received comments on the DEIR from members of the public and from public agencies in both written and oral form The FEIR contains written responses to all comments ( "Responses to Comments ") received on the DEIR as of December 15, 2005. Some comments were incorporated into the FEIR as factual corrections and minor changes The FEIR includes all factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR All comments and testimony received prior to and at the City Council's public hearing have been considered B Findm Pursuant to CEQA Guideline § 15088 5 and Public Resources Code § 21092 1, and based on the FEIR and the record of proceedings in for the Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development, the City Council finds that 1 Factual corrections and minor changes are set forth as additions and corrections to the DEIR, and 2 The factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR are not substantial changes in the DEIR that would deprive the public of a meaningful opportunity to comment on a substantial adverse environmental effect of the 108 Rosecrans /Sepulveda Site Rezoning and Plaza El Segundo Development, a feasible way to mitigate or avoid such an effect, or a feasible Project alternative, and 3 The factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR will not result in new significant environmental effects or substantially increase the severity of the significant effects previously disclosed in the DEIR, and 4 The factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR will not involve mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the DEIR that would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, and 5 The factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR do not render the DEIR so fundamentally inadequate and conclusory in nature that meaningful public review and comment would be precluded Thus, the City Council finds that none of the conditions set forth in CEQA Guideline § 15088 5 or Public Resources Code § 21092 1 requiring recirculation of a draft environmental impact report were met The City Council further finds that incorporation of the factual corrections and minor changes to the DEIR into the FEIR does not require that the FEIR to be recirculated for public comment VI.
