Task 3: Screencheck EIR Addendum <br />Based on our review of the materials provided to us and our understanding of CEQA and the environmental <br />issues associated with the Proposed Project, PlaceWorks will complete a screencheck version of the EIR <br />Addendum. The environmental analysis will be completed in compliance with CEQA Guidelines (Section <br />15164) and the City's adopted CEQA checklist. <br />The TZC EIR found that buildout of the TZC would result in significant and unavoidable impacts related to <br />aesthetics, air quality, cultural resources, noise, and traffic. To support analysis in the EIR Addendum, <br />PlaceWorks will do the following: <br />» Evaluate changes in impacts associated with the Proposed Project in comparison to impacts disclosed in <br />the TZC EIR <br />» Modify adopted mitigation measures to reflect site-specific impacts not adequately addressed by the <br />TZC EIR <br />» Verify that no "new or substantially more severe" significant impacts would occur under the Proposed <br />Project and confirm that preparation of a Subsequent EIR is not required. <br />The Addendum will be prepared in conformance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 and the City's CEQA <br />Procedures and will include a competed IS checklist and associated discussion that compares the Proposed <br />Project with the assumptions in TZC EIR. The Addendum will include the following contents: <br />» Introduction <br />» Environmental Setting <br />» Project Description <br />» Environmental Checklist (based on Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines) <br />» Environmental Analysis <br />» List of Preparers <br />» References <br />» Appendices <br />Please note that, unlike other CEQA documents (e.g., EIR, MND), an Addendum does not require a public <br />review period. Because of this, AB 52 Tribal Consultation is not triggered by an addendum—only by <br />documents with formal public noticing or public review, such as a negative declaration, mitigated negative <br />declaration, or EIR. <br />PlaceWorks will coordinate with the City to obtain any additional or updated information for the Proposed <br />Project, including technical reports and construction equipment and schedule information. Our staff will <br />conduct a site visit and document existing conditions with photographs. Project site plans, elevations, <br />grading plans, utility plans, and landscaping plans (as available) will also be utilized to accurately evaluate <br />project -related impacts. <br />The completed screencheck EIR Addendum will be submitted to the City for review and comment. The <br />proposal assumes three weeks for City staff to review the screencheck EIR Addendum as requested by the <br />RFP. PlaceWorks will meet with the City to discuss and resolve any major areas of concern in the <br />screencheck, clarify areas of misunderstanding, etc. For the purposes of this proposal, we assume that the <br />City will provide one compiled set of comments and one round of review of the screencheck EIR <br />Addendum. Modification to the scope of work, budget, and time frame may be necessary if additional <br />screencheck reviews are required. <br />25D-22 <br />
