EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Bonadelle Homes, Inc., on behalf of BN 5312, L.P., has filed Rezone Application No. R-07-65, Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5901/UGM pertaining to approximately 19.34 net acres (20.05 gross acres) of property located on the west side of North Locan Avenue between East Ashlan and East Shields Avenues. Rezone Application No. R-07-65 proposes to reclassify the subject site from the R-1/UGM (Single Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district to the R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district. The subject property is planned for medium density residential land uses. If approved, Rezone Application No. R-07-65 will facilitate development of a 158-lot, single family residential public street planned development with modified property development standards as proposed by Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5901/UGM. According to the land use consistency table adopted with the 2025 Fresno General Plan (and applied within all community plans), the medium density residential planned land use designation allows 4.99-10.37 dwelling units per acre. Overall, the proposed subdivision density is 8.17 dwelling units per acre, which may be found to be consistent with the medium density residential planned land use designation pursuant to Section 12-403-B-2-a(2) of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC). The subject rezone applications would bring the subject property into conformance with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan. The requested rezone application is supported by staff, the District 4 Advisory Corrimittee and the City of Fresno Planning Commission. REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL Rezone Application No. R-07-65 December 18, 2007 Page 2 KEY OBJECTIVE BALANCE Council action regarding this proposed land use application optimizes the three Key Objectives of Customer Satisfaction, Employee Satisfaction, and Financial Management. Affirmative action by the Council will result in timely deliverance of the review and processing of the application as is reasonably expected by the applicant/customer. Prudent financial management is demonstrated by the expeditious completion of this land use application inasmuch as the applicant/customer has paid to -the city a fee for the processing of this application and that fee is, in turn, funding the operations of the Planning and Development Department. Employee satisfaction is derived from the fact that the professional and technical staff, who have reviewed and made a recommendation on this land use application, have done so in a thorough and professional manner, thereby enhancing the sense of accomplishment in the completion of the application process.

PLANNING At 'the regular meeting held November 14, 2007, the Planning COMMISSION Commission recommended that the City Council approve Rezone RECOMMENDATION Application No. R-07-65. BORDERING PROPERTY INFORMATION Planned Land Use Existing Zoning Existing Land Use S-L/UGM North Commercial /Office (Storage/Limited Mini Storage Vacant (County/ pending Facility/Urban Growth Management) annexation) R-1/UGM Vacant/Tract 5312 Recorded South Medium Density (Single Family Residential/Urban 2007 Residential Growth Management) AE-20, Fresno County Rural Residential /Agricultural East Southeast Growth Area (Exclusive 20-Acre Agricultural, (County) Fresno Count R-1/EA/UGM West Medium Density (Single Family Vacant/Tract 5237 Recorded Residential Residential/Expressway Area 2005 Overlay/Urban Growth Management) , ENVIRONMENTAL FINDING The initial study prepared for Environmental Assessment No. R-07-65/C-07-270/T-5901 considered potential environmental impacts associated with the subject rezone, conditional use permit and vesting tentative tract map applications in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. This process included the distribution of requests for comment from other responsible or affected agencies and interested organizations. The study indicates that the project, if approved, would conform to the land use designation and land use policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and is fully within the scope of MEIR No. 10130 as provided by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as codified in the Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 21157.1(d) and the CEQA Guidelines Section 15177(c). It has been further determined that all applicable mitigation measures of MEIR No. 10130 have been applied to the project to assure REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL Rezone Application No. R-07-65 December 18, 2007 Page 4 that the project will not cause significant adverse cumulative impacts, growth inducing impacts and irreversible significant effects beyond those identified by MEIR No. 10130 and as provided by CEQA Section 15178(a). Therefore, staff has issued a finding that the project proposal is in conformance to the 2025 Fresno General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR No. 10130) dated October 16, 2007, which incorporates an MEIR Mitigation Monitoring Checklist. This environmental finding was properly published on October 16, 2007, with no comments received to date. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS Bonadelle Homes, Inc., on behalf of BN 5312, L.P., has filed Rezone Application No. R-07-65, Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5901/UGM pertaining to approximately 19.34 net acres (20.05 gross acres) of property located on the west side of North Locan Avenue between East Ashlan and East Shields Avenues. Rezone Application No. R-07-65 proposes to reclassify the subject site from the R-1/UGM (Single Family Residential/Urban Growth Managemeno zone district to the R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district. The subject property is planned for medium density residential land uses. Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5901/UGM propose to subdivide the subject property for a 158-lot, single family residential public street planned development with modified property development standards; and, install related facilities and infrastructure. According to the land use consistency table adopted with the 2025 Fresno General Plan (and applied within all community plans), the medium density residential planned land use designation allows 4.99-10.37 dwelling units per acre. Overall, the proposed subdivision density is 8.17 dwelling f,.. f units per acre, which may be found to be consistent with the medium density residential planned land use designation pursuant to Section 12-403-B-2-a(2) of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC). In accordance with Section 12-403-B-2 of the FMC, a proposed change of zone district that does not meet the criteria of the Zone District Consistency Table (Section 12-403-B-1 of the FMC) may be determined consistent with the corresponding land use designated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan, or an applicable community, specific, or redevelopment plan subject to the submittal and approval of a "development plan." Exhibit "A" of Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270 dated September 12, 2007 serves as a "development plan" for the proposed R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) which, according to the Zone District Consistency Table of the FMC, is consistent with the Medium-High Density Residential planned land use designation. The development plan illustrates that the proposed project is consistent with the planned density criteria (4.99-10.37 dwelling units per acre) for the medium density residential planned land use designation; and, that the proposed project is consistent with City plans, policies and property development standards which are essential to protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the community and improving the project and its relationship to the neighborhood and environment. The subject property is within the boundaries of, and is consistent with, the 2025 Fresno General Plan and McLane Community Plan. The subject property is currently vacant. The Fresno Irrigation District's Gow No. 99 Canal also traverses the subject property along its eastern boundary in a north/south directional orientation. Properties to the east of the subject property have been used historically for agricultural purposes and have been developed with residences at rural and low densities. Approximately 20 acres of land located to the south of the subject property has been approved for medium density residential development through Tentative Tract Map No. 5312 in 2004 (95-lot single family residential development). Approximately 80 acres located to the west of the subject property (southeast corner of the intersection of North Temperance and East Dakota Avenues) has been approved for medium-low REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL Rezone Application No. R-07-65 December 18, 2007 Page 5 density residential development through Tentative Tract Map No. 5237 in 2004 (393-lot single family residential development). Property to the north of the subject property and south of the Gould No. 97 Canal remains vacant but was approved for 428,375 sq. ft. of self-storage facilities with caretaker's residence and covered carports for RV and vehicle storage (Derrel's Mini Storage) in 2005. Land Use Plans and Policies The 2025 Fresno General Plan and McLane Community Plan designate the project site for medium density (4.99-10.37 dwelling units/acre) residential planned land uses. The proposed R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family Residential) zone district is consistent with the medium density residential planned land use designation pursuant to Section 12-403-B-2-a(2) of the FMC. The 158-lot, single family residential public street planned development proposed by Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. T-5901/UGM-is compatible with the applicable community and general plan goals, policies, and implementation measures intended to provide for the efficient uses of natural resources and public facilities; the construction of adequate public improvements by the development which generates the demand for these facilities; and, the implementation of a functional land use pattern consistent with the population and economic growth projections of the 2025 Fresno General Plan. Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System Traffic Capacity The Public Works Department Traffic Division has reviewed the proposed rezone application and related development proposals for the subject property and has determined that the streets relating to the site will be able to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated. Furthermore, the Public Works Department staff has concluded that this project will not have significant adverse impacts upon the city's circulation system and that any impacts are mitigable through the city's standard process and requirements for projects that abut major streets. State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 6, Office of Intergovernmental Relations has reviewed the rezone, conditional use permit and vesting tentative tract map applications. Caltrans comments and recommendations are included within its attached memorandum dated October 15, 2007. Caltrans has indicated that this development will have a minimal impact on State Facilities but recommends that transit alternative be considered for the project. Fresno City Planning Commission This rezone application and associated conditional use permit and tract map were considered by the Fresno City Planning Commission at its regular meeting held on November 14, 2007. At the Planning Commission hearing, the commission took action to recommend approval of the environmental finding of Environmental Assessment No. R-07-65/C-07-270/T-5901 dated October 16, 2007 that the project proposal conforms to the provisions of the 2025 Fresno General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR No. 10130); and Rezone Application No. R-07-65, which proposes to reclassify the subject property from the R-1/UGM (Single Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district to the R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district. REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL Rezone Application No. R-07-65 December 18,2007 Page 6 CONCLUSION The appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with respect to its consistency with goals and policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan; its compatibility with surrounding existing or proposed uses; and its avoidance or mitigation of potentially significant adverse environmental impacts. These factors have been evaluated as described above and by the accompanying environmental assessment. Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that Rezone Application No. R-07-65 is appropriate for the project site. Therefore, staff recommends that the Fresno City Council approve the subject rezone application and associated environmental finding.

The existing capacity must be preserved as part of site development. Additionally, site development may not interfere with the ability to operate and maintain the canal or pipeline. 7. The Federal Clean Water Act and the State General Permits for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction and Industrial Activities (State General Permits) require developers of construction projects disturbing one or more acres, and discharges associated with industrial activity not otherwise exempt from National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting, to implement controls to reduce pollutants, prohibit the discharge of waters other than storm water to the municipal storm drain system, and meet water quality standards. These requirements apply both to pollutants generated during construction, and to those which may be generated by operations at the development after construction. O ■ a• State General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activities, approved August 1999, (modified December 2002.) A State General Construction Permit is required for all clearing, grading, and disturbances to the ground that result in soil disturbance of at least one acre (or less than one acre if part of a larger common plan of development or sale). Permittees are required to: submit a Notice of Intent to be covered and must pay a permit fee to the State Water Resources O Control Board (State Board), develop and implement a storm water pollution prevention plan, eliminate non-storm water discharges, conduct routine site inspections, train employees in permit compliance, and complete an annual certification of compliance. b.

The street should be located somewhere in the vicinity of lots 10, 11, 12,41,42,or 43. The street is necessary to convey storm water to the inlet located on Garland Avenue from two directions, as shown on Exhibit No. 1, rather than allowing all of the surface runoff to enter the inlet from the west side of Tract 5901. The bi-directional flow is necessary as to not overflow the gutter capacity at the northeast corner of Garland and Hornet Avenues during storm events. An option to the placement of a street to the south would be a non-Master Plan pipe extension and inlets into Robinson Avenue, as shown on Exhibit No. 1. The District's existing Master Plan drainage system is designed to serve medium density residential uses and the existing Master Plan storm drainage facilities do not have capacity to serve the proposed medium-high density land use. The developer shall be required to mitigate the impacts of the increased runoff from the proposed medium-high density land use to a rate that would be expected if developed to medium density residential. The developer may either make improvements to the existing pipeline system to provide additional capacity or may use some type of permanent peak reducing facility in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the existing system. Implementation of the mitigation measures may be deferred until the time of development. Should the developer choose to construct a permanent peak-reducing facility, such a system would be required to reduce runoff from a ten-year storm produced by a commercial density development, to a two-year discharge, which would be produced by the property if developed medium density residential. Contact the District as early as possible to review the proposed mitigation process. Refer to letter for Rezone 2007-065 for further information.

The District has reviewed the land use changes proposed through the subject Rezone 2007-065. The District's system cannot accommodate the proposed rezone in this drainage area. The District's existing Master Plan drainage system is designed for medium density residential land use and the existing Master Plan storm drainage facilities do not have the capacity to serve the proposed medium-high density residential land use. The developer will be required to mitigate the impacts of the increased runoff from the proposed medium-high density residential land use to a rate that would be expected if developed to a medium density residential land use. The developer may either make improvements to the existing pipeline system to provide additional capacity or may use some type of permanent peak reducing facility in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the existing system.

District Reference No: 200701485 Dear Ms. Zuniga: The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (District) has reviewed the project referenced above and offers the following comments: The San Joaquin Valley Air Basin is currently designated as serious non-attainment for Ozone and non-attainment (no classification) for PM2.5. On October 30, 2006, the US EPA found that the San Joaquin Valley had attained the PM10 standard. The US EPA based its determination upon monitoring data demonstrating that the ambient air quality had met the requirements for attainment. The US EPA's finding does not change the District's classification as a serious PM10 non-attainment to attainment area. However, re-designation from serious non-attainment to attainment requires additional documentation and will occur at some future date. Findings of Significance This project would contribute to the overall decline in air quality due to construction activities in preparation of the site, and ongoing traffic and other operational emissions. Based on the information provided, the District expects that the project would not exceed the District's Thresholds of Significance for ozone precursors of 10 tons per year of reactive organic gases (ROG) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). However, the increase in emissions from this project,. and others like it, cumulatively .reduce the a-ir quality in the Seyed Sadredin Executive Director/Air Pollution Control Officer Northern Region Central Region(Main Office) Southern Region 4800 Enterprise Way 1990 E.Gettysburg Avenue 2700 M Street,Suite 275 Modesto,CA 95356-8718 Fresno,CA 93726-0244 Bakersfield,CA 93301-2373 Tel:(2091557-6400 FAX:(209)557-6475 Tel:(559►230-6000 FAX:1559)230-6061 Tel:(661)326-6900 FAX.(661)326-6985 www.valleyair.org Ms. Zuniga Page 2 of 3 T-5901, R-07-65, and C-07-270 San Joaquin Valley. A concerted effort should be made to reduce project-related emissions as outlined below: Applicable District Rules Based on the information provided, the proposed project will be subject to the District rules identified below. These rules have been adopted by the District to reduce emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. This project may be subject to additional District Rules not enumerated below. To identify additional rules or regulations that apply to this project, or for further information, the applicant is strongly encouraged to contact the District's Small Business Assistance Office at (559) 230-5888. Current District rules can be found at www.valle\/air.org/rules/1 ruleslist.htm. Regulation VIII (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions) Rules 8011-8081 are designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated by human activity, including construction and demolition activities, road construction, bulk materials storage, paved and unpaved roads, carryout and track out, landfill operations, etc. The District's compliance assistance bulletin for construction sites can be found at www.valleyair.org/busind/comply/PM10/Req VIII CAB.pdf. If a residential project is 10 or more acres in area or the project will include moving, depositing, or relocating more than 2,500 cubic yards per day of bulk materials on at least three days, a Dust Control Plan must be submitted as specified in Section 6.3.1 of Rule 8021 . Construction activities shall not commence until the District has approved the Dust Control Plan. A template of the District's Dust Control Plan is available at www.vallevair.org/busind/comply/PM10/forms/DCP-Form.doc Rule 4102 (Nuisance) This rule applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air contaminants or other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the project creates a public nuisance, it could be in violation and be subject to District enforcement action. Rule 4601 (Architectural Coatings) This rule limits volatile organic compounds from architectural coatings by specifying architectural coatings storage, clean up and labeling requirements and applies to any person who supplies, sells, offers for saie, applies, or solicits the application of any architectural coating. Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance Operations) If asphalt paving will be used, then paving operations of this project will be subject to Rule 4641. This rule applies to the manufacture and use of cutback asphalt, slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt for paving and maintenance operations. Rule 4901 (Wood Burning Fireplaces and Wood Burning Heaters) This rule limits PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from residential development. Construction plans for residential developments may be affected by section 5.3, specifically: Ms. Zuniga Page 3 of 3 T-5901, R-07-65, and C-07-270 5.3.1 — No person shall install a wood burning fireplace in a new residential development with a density greater than two (2) dwelling units per acre. 5.3.2 — No person shall install more than two (2) EPA Phase II Certified wood burning heaters per acre in any new residential development with a density equal to or greater than three (3) dwelling units per acre. 5.3.3 — No person shall install more than one (1) wood burning fireplace or wood burning heater per dwelling unit in any new residential development with a density equal to or less than two (2) dwelling units per acre. More information about Rule 4901 can be found on our website at www.valleVair.org. For compliance assistance, please contact Mr. Wayne Clarke, Air Quality Compliance Manager, at (559) 230-5968. Rule 9510 (Indirect Source Review) This rule was adopted to reduce the impacts of growth in emissions from all new development in the San joaquin Valley. Rule 9510 requires applicants subject to the rule to provide information that enables the District to quantify construction, area and operational PM10 and NOx emissions, and potentially mitigate a portion of those emissions. Rule 9510 requires construction exhaust emissions to be reduced by 20 percent for NOx and 45 percent for PM10 and operational emissions to be reduced by 33.3% for NOx and 50% for PM10 when compared to the statewide fleet average. The rule is applicable to any residential development project, which, upon full buildout is 50 dwelling units or more. An application must be filed with the District no later than concurrent with application with a local agency for the final discretionary approval. For more information and instruction, please contact the District's ISR staff by phone at (559) 230-6000 or by email at ISRCa�valleyair.org. District staff is available to meet with you and/or the applicant to further discuss the regulatory requirements that are associated with this project.

PG&E requests that a Public Utility Easement (PUE) be incorporated within all access easement(s) as shown on said Map. If PG&E has an existing pole line facility that serves the property and the existing pole line crosses proposed property lines (and is not covered by an existing easement), it is the property owner's responsibility to provide PG&E with adequate rights-of-way. PG&E is available to assist the property owner in making the determination if an easement will be necessary. The property owner or their agent may contact the undersigned for assistance. PG&E has determined that our records show no gas or electric transmission lines in the area. Existing gas or electric facility relocations necessitated by new street improvements (which are required as conditions of a development's final acceptance by the County of Fresno) will be at the expense of the developer. Because facility relocation's require long lead times and are not- always feasible, developers should be encouraged to consult with PG&E as early in their planning stages as possible. Expansion of distribution and transmission lines and related facilities are a necessary consequence of growth and development. In addition to adding new distribution feeders, the range of electric system improvements needed to accommodate growth may include upgrading existing substation and transmission line equipment, expanding existing substations to their ultimate buildout capacity, and building new substations and interconnecting transmission lines. Comparable upgrades or additions needed to accommodate additional load on the gas system could include facilities such as regulator stations, odorizer stations, valve lots, distribution and transmission lines. PG&E remains committed to working with the County of Fresno to provide timely, reliable and cost effective gas and electric service.

Caltrans has the following comments: Based on the TIS, this development will have a minimal impact on State facilities. The City should consider a transit alternative for this project. There is sufficient development in this general area to support transit, and early planning could make such an alternative feasible. Caltrans recommends that this project be routed to Fresno Area Express (FAX) staff for their review and comment. Please see Attachment Number 1 for other recommended transportation alternatives. If you have any questions, please call me at (559) 488-4347. Sincerely, JOANNE STRIEBICH Office of Transportation Planning District 06 Enclosure C: Mr. Scott Mozier, City of Fresno Public Works Department Mr. Bryan Jones, City of Fresno Public Works Department Ms Barbara Goodwin, Council of Fresno County Governments "Caltrans improves mobility across California" ATTACHMENT NUMBER 1 CALTRANS RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES: Ongoing development throughout the City of Fresno, including this project, will make traffic operations significantly worse by adding considerably to delay and congestion. Transit alternatives can help reduce congestion and delay and reduce overall degradation of air quality and gridlocked intersections. The City of Fresno should focus on ways to eliminate trips in addition to enhancing capacity. Transportation alternatives the City should consider include standard highway solutions along with the following: 1. Park and ride facilities on site or within the proximity of this project. 2. A study of the general accommodation and provision of mass transit in this area to provide insight on ways of increasing transit usage. 3. Exploring the potential of commuter shuttles. The shuttle could be financed through an assessment district and provide a way for individuals to utilize a park-and-ride facility or commercial area parking lot and be shuttled to various commercial/office centers within the area. Commuters who need to go further could use City of Fresno transit if the City planned for convenient connections. This may help to reduce the Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) demand seeking to use the State Highway System. 4. Providing for continuity of non-motorized transportation. 5. Exploring the potential for employer-sponsored carpools/vanpools or monthly transit passes for employees as well as including as a condition of project approval a covered transit stop as mitigation for project-related impacts to the transportation/circulation system. 6. Exploring the potential for linking the purchase of a monthly transit pass with new residential development as partial mitigation for congestion and air quality impacts, and to ensure the long term viability of public transportation.

Will Tackett 7030 North Fruit Avenue, Suite 101 Planner ill Fresno, CA 93711 October 16, 2007 Environmental Assessment Number: Project Location (including APN): EA No. R-07-65/C-07-270/T-5901 West side of North Locan Avenue between East Ashlan and East Shields Avenues. 310-270-04 05 S 06 Project Description: Bonadelle Homes, Inc., on behalf of BN 5312, L.P., has filed Rezone Application No. R-07-65, Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5901/UGM for approximately 19.34 net acres (20.05 gross acres) of property located on the west side of North Locan Avenue between East Ashlan and East Shields Avenues. Rezone Application No. R-07-65 proposes to rezone the subject property from the R-1/UGM (Single Family ResidentiaUUrban Growth Management) zone district to the R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family ResidentiaUUrban Growth Management zone district. Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-07-270 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. T-5901/UGM propose to subdivide e subject property for a 158-lot single family residential public street planned development with modified operty development standards at an overall density of 8.17 dwelling units per acre. Conformance to Master Environmental Impact Report(MEIR NO. 10130): The 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan designate the subject parcels for medium density residential planned land uses. The proposed R-2/UGM (Low Density Multiple Family ResidentiaYUrban Growth Management) zone district for the subject site may be found consistent with the medium density residential planned land use designation pursuant to Section 12-403-B-2 of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC). Development of the subject property at the proposed overall density of 8.17 dwelling units per acre is consistent with the medium density (4.99-10.37 dwelling units/acre) residential planned land use as designated by both the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan. The Planning and Development Department staff has prepared an initial study and environmental checklist and evaluated the proposed rezone, conditional use permit, and tentative tract map applications in accordance with the land use and environmental policies and provisions of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the related Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) No. 10130. The subject property may be developed at an intensity and scale that is permitted by the planned land use designation and proposed zone district classification for the site. Thus, the rezone, conditional use permit, and tentative tract map applications will not facilitate an additional intensification of uses beyond that which already exists or would be allowed by the above-noted planned land use designation. Moreover, it is not expected that the future development will adversely impact existing city service systems or the traffic circulation system that serves the subject property. These infrastructure findings have been verified by the Public Works and Public Utilities Departments. It has been further determined that all applicable mitigation measures of MEIR No. 10130 have been applied to the project necessary to assure that the project will not cause significant adverse cumulative impacts, growth inducing impacts, and irreversible significant effects beyond those identified by MEIR No. 0130 as provided by CEQA Section 15177(b)(3). Pursuant to Section 21157.1 of the California Public Resources Code (California Environmental Quality Act), it may be determined that a subsequent project, as identified in the MEIR pursuant to Section 21157(b)(2) of E200710000567 Finding of Conformity Under MEIR No. 10130 Environmental Assessment No. R-07-65/C-07-270/T-5901 Page 2 the Public Resources Code and CEQA Guidelines Section 15177, falls within the scope of a MEIR, provided that the project does not cause significant impacts on the environment that were not previously examined by the MEIR. Relative to this specific project proposal, the environmental impacts noted in the MEIR, pursuant to the 2025 Fresno General Plan land use designation, include impacts associated with the medium density residential planned land use designation specified for the subject property. Based on the initial study prepared for the subject rezone, conditional use permit, and tentative tract map applications the following findings can be made: (1) The proposed project was identified as a Subsequent Project in MEIR No. 10130 because its land use designation and permissible densities and intensities are set forth in Figure 1-1 of MEIR NO. 10130; (2) The proposed project will not generate additional significant effects not previously identified and analyzed by the MEIR (as indicated on the Environmental Assessment Checklist) for the following reasons. The City's investigation of the site and the project have revealed that there are no unique topographic, soil, or geological conditions at the site that will be impacted by this project, that there are no aspects of this project that will result in impacts to air quality, water supply or quality, plant life or animal life beyond those analyzed in the MEIR. There is no evidence that the site contains any habitat for wildlife, unique, rare, or endangered plants or animals, or historic buildings, or historic resources. The project is consistent with the 2025 Fresno General Plan planned land use designation for the subject site. As such, the MEIR's mitigation measures related to air quality, water, noise, light and glare, transportation and circulation, and urban services have been applied to this project. The Public Works Department/Traffic Engineering Division staff has reviewed the proposed traffic yield from the 156-lot single family residential planned development and the expected traffic generation (1,512 average daily trips [ADT]) will not adversely impact the existing and projected (year 2025) level of service (LOS) for North Locan Avenue (LOS of B) based on the circulation system analysis contained in MEIR No. 10130. There is no evidence that this site contains any hazardous materials, or that the project will generate or release hazardous substances beyond those already analyzed by the MEIR, or result in an adverse change in course of flow of flood waters. Finally this project will not have any visual impacts on scenic vistas or views, and will not create aesthetically offensive conditions. ; Thus, the scope of the work and impacts to the site and surrounding area were fully analyzed under the MEIR. As a result, (3) no new additional mitigation measures are required because the proposed project will not generate additional significant effects not previously identified and analyzed by the MEIR, as explained above. Therefore, the project proposal is within the scope of the MEIR as defined by Section 15177 of the CEQA Guidelines. Moreover, as lead agency for this project, the Planning and Development Department, per Section 15177 (d) of the CEQA Guidelines, has determined that all feasible mitigation measures from MEIR No. 10130 shall apply to the project proposal as noted in the attached mitigation monitoring checklist. Public notice has been provided regarding staff's finding in a manner prescribed by this section of the Guidelines and by Section 21092 of the California Public Resources Code (CEQA provisions). 10 l q ig Darrell ruv Date Planning Hager, City of Fresno Attachments: Environmental ChecklistAnitial Study for Environmental Assessment No. R-07-65/0-07-270/T-5901 Mitigation Monitoring Checklist (MEIR No. 10130) for Environmental Assessment No. R-07-65/C-07-270/T-5901 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (EA) CHECKLIST POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS EA NO.
