131 The project will be required to provide parking area security patrols, but only at such time a parking spaces are actually striped and available for public use on the west side of retail building 3 north of the building storefront. Such patrols will be required only during the hours from sundown until one-half hour after the stores close. Six months at, er implementation and annually thereafter, this mitigation measure will be reviewed by the Santa Ana Police Department for possible modifications based upon observations by the property owner and review of Police Department ~ncident reports. LIGHT AND GLARE Significant Effect The project will significantly increase the mount of light and glare generated from the site due to parking lot lighting, advertising signs, security and safety lighting alon8 the rear (north side) of the retail buildings. Depending upon the intensity and amount of shielding of project lighting, residents adjacent to and north of the site could experience a significant increase in illumination and lighting from tlie site. The project will generate additional glare associated with automobiles and building windows. Glare from the project is not anticipated to significantly impact residents adjacent to the site because the existing block wall along the project boundary will interrupt glare extending to the residences. Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect identified in the Final EIR. Facts in Support of the Findin_~ The potential impacts with nighttime lighting on the site, especially security lighting along the northwest, north and northeast sides of retail buildings 1, 2 and 3 could impact those residents adjacent to the project site. The incorporation of the following mitigation measures will reduce the potential light and glare impacts to a level of insignificance: The site plan shall be reviewed by the City Planning and Building Agency and the Police Department for potential light impacts to those residential units adjacent to and northwest, north and northeast of the site. All project lighting shall comply with the City of Santa Aha Security Ordinance. Lighting in close proximity to the light sensitive residential uses adjacent to the site shall be directed on-site and shielded from extending directly off-site. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the project developer shall prepare a point by point computerized photometric study showing the light trespass into the adjacent residential neighborhood. The purpose of this study is to ensure that offsite light impacts 15
