EIR No. 2018-01, DA No. 2018-01, GPA No. 2018-06, <br />AA No. 2018-10 2525 North Main Street <br />February 5, 2019 <br />Page 21 <br />Assessment, Sewer Analysis and Hydrology Report were prepared for the project. As proposed <br />the project would result in a less than significant impact to utilities and services. <br />Noise <br />Section 4.8 of the Draft EIR analyzed noise impacts related to construction operations and <br />operational noise from HVAC equipment, parking facilities, trash removal and use of the outdoor <br />open space. Based on the SAMC noise standards the project would not general noise levels that <br />would exceed noise standards. To mitigate construction noise two mitigation measures are <br />proposed, one to require a 50 -foot buffer along the east property line for large mobile construction <br />equipment and installation of a temporary noise barrier such as vinyl acoustic curtains or quilted <br />blankets attached to the east property line wall or temporary fence posts. <br />Privacy <br />Privacy concerns regarding windows on the east elevation and visibility from the rooftop amenity <br />deck into backyards or homes were raised. A rendering of eastern views from the rooftop has been <br />provided, views of the single-family dwellings are out of the line of sight from the amenity deck as <br />it is located closer to Main Street. In addition, staff has included a requirement within the Specific <br />Development for clerestory or opaque windows along the building wall that is at the 40 -foot setback. <br />Project Changes <br />Since the initial project submittal, the applicant has made changes to the project to address both <br />staff's and the public's comments. Changes made include: <br />1. Reduced the number of units from 517 to 496. <br />2. Removed access on Edgewood Road to reduce the potential for cut -through traffic into the <br />Park Santiago neighborhood. <br />3. Reduced the height of the building along the east side from 5 -stories (78 feet) to 2 -stories <br />(25 feet). <br />4. Revised the architectural style. <br />Staff is recommending additional modifications to the project based on previously constructed and <br />approved multi -family development projects in the City, planning and design principles, the <br />character of the nearby residential neighborhood, and the community's concerns. The proposed <br />changes are listed in the Development Agreement and include: <br />1. Number of units: Further reduce the number units from 496 to 476 units (81 dwelling units <br />per acre). <br />75E-21 <br />
