<br /> plans and specifications or the completion of construction shall
<br /> also be extended for delays, arising as a result of war or
<br /> insurrection, riots, casualtles, ~loods, earthquakes, adverse
<br /> weather conditions, labor strikes, boycotts, lockouts, shortages
<br /> in material or equipment, acts or omissions of the City, acts or
<br /> omissions of third parties who are not parties to this Agreement,
<br /> or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Developer.
<br />
<br /> 12. Subsequent Environmental Review. In exercising its
<br />legislative discretion to enter into this Agreement and to commit
<br />the City to the completion of the Project(s), the City has
<br />reviewed and considered the potential adverse environmental
<br />impacts related to all aspects of the contemplated Project(s),
<br />including, without limitation, the potential demands the
<br />Project(s) will make On local and regional streets, highways,
<br />water capacity and water lines, sewer capacity and sewer lines,
<br />flood and storm drain systems, and energy conservation, traffic,
<br />pedestrian safety, shadowing, noise and air quality impacts,
<br />public health and safety, impacts on school facilities, cultural
<br />resources, geotechnical impacts, and visual aesthetics. The City
<br />has further reviewed and considered from a variety of perspec-
<br />tives, and has analyzed pursuant to a variety of assumptions, the
<br />projected future regional and cumulative area-wide environmental
<br />demands that will compete with the Project(s) for available
<br />capacities and cumulatively add to potential adverse impacts. In
<br />so doing, the City has considered among other things, the
<br />possibilities that:
<br />
<br /> (i) Federal, local, regional and state plans, if any,
<br />for provision of new infrastructure systems or expansion of
<br />existing infrastructure systems may be delayed, modified or
<br />abandoned;
<br />
<br /> (ii) The types, ntensltles, and amount of future
<br />regional development may exceed or otherwise be different
<br />from that currently being planned by the City and other
<br />local agencies; and
<br />
<br /> (iii) Regional and Project(s) generated demands on
<br />infrastructure and utility improvements to be constructed as
<br />a part of the Project(s) may exceed in either the short run
<br />or the long run the allocated capacities for such demands.
<br />
<br /> After assessing these and other potential adverse
<br />environmental impacts associated with the development of the
<br />Property, the City has imposed the mitigation measures set forth
<br />in paragraph 9, above, and in the EIR to the fullest extent the
<br />City considers feasible and necessary. The City has determined
<br />that the public benefits of the Project(s) override any potential
<br />adverse environmental impacts which may arise during the develop-
<br />ment period; therefore, the City agrees, consistent with
<br />California Public Resources Code Section 21166, that no
<br />subsequent or supplemental environmental impact report shall be
<br />required by the City for subsequent approvals except as otherwise
<br />required by Section 21166.
