Community Plan Exemption Checklist City of Santa Ana Gary Avenue Business Park Project EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS This Community Plan Exemption Checklist provides an analysis of potential environmental impacts resulting from the Project. Following the format of CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Checklist, environmental effects are evaluated to determine if the Project would result in a potentially significant impact triggering additional review under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15183. • Items checked "Peculiar Impact that is not Substantially Mitigated" indicates that the Project could result in a peculiar impact, including a physical change that belongs exclusively or especially to the project or that is a distinctive characteristic of the project or the project site and that peculiar impact is not substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. (State CEQA Guidelines Section 151 83(b)(1 )(f)) • Items checked "Impact not Analyzed as Significant Effect in GPU EIR" indicates that the project could result in a significant effect that was not analyzed as significant in the GPU EIR. Such a project impact is not significant if it can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(b)(2),(c),(f)) • Items checked "Potentially Significant Offsite or Cumulative Impact Not Discussed in GPU EIR" indicates the project could result in a significant offsite or cumulative impact that was not discussed in the GPU EIR. Such an offsite or cumulative project impact is not significant if it can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. (State CEQA Guidelines Section 151 83(b)(3),(c),(f)) • Items checked "Adverse Impact More Severe Based on Substantial New Information" indicates that there is new information that leads to a determination that a project impact is more severe than discussed in the GPU EIR. Such an impact is not more severe if it can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(b)(4),(c),(f)). • Items checked "No New Impact" indicates that potential impacts from the project have been adequately analyzed in the GPU EIR. A project does not qualify for a Community Plan Exemption if it is determined that it would result in one or more of the following: 1) a peculiar impact that was not identified as a significant impact under the GPU EIR, 2) a significant impact was not analyzed as significant in the GPU EIR, 3) a potentially significant offsite impact or cumulative impact not discussed in the GPU EIR, or 4) a more severe impact due to substantial new information that was not known at the time the GPU EIR was certified. However, if a project having any of the foregoing impacts can be substantially mitigated through the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. Uniformly applied development policies or standards that are applicable to the proposed project are included within this analysis. A summary of the City's analysis of each potential environmental effect is provided in the checklist below for each CEQA subject area. 27
