Impact VIS-2. Proposed development would introduce new sources of light and glare into the neighborhood. New sources of nighttime lighting associated with residential development would be introduced, although nighttime character of the area, which is generally diminished by surrounding urban development, would not change greatly from the existing condition. However, lighting fixtures, if not properly designed, would potentially be incompatible with surrounding development. Lighting from the church would occur from exterior building fixtures and security lighting in the parking lot. Lighting from the church facility could include lit features, particularly associated with the bell tower and main church building. Lighting could be characterized as a stark contrast to adjacent development, given its size and scale. The visual prominence of bell tower also heightens the potential for glare impacts. Use of highly £mished or reflective materials would result in glare impacts that could affect the site as seen from adjacent residential and transit corridor areas. Mitigation Measures for Impact VI$-2. VIS-2 Residential project design shall include a lighting plan to specify that exterior lighting at the perimeter of the site shall be directed downward onto the project site and where appropriate, include features (e.g., hoods or parapet walls) to minimize light spill-over onto adjacent parcels. Findings for Impact VIS-2. The City finds that the above-identified changes or alteratiom would reduce the impact identified as VIS-2 to less than significant levels and are herby incorporated into the project. No additional mitigation measures are necessary with the implementation of Mitigation Measure VIS-2. 4.2 Impacts Determined to be Significant and Unavoidable Air O~ality Impact AIR-1. Site preparation and construction activities would generate emissions of NOx that exceed SCAQMD thresholds. Mitigation Measures for Impact AIR-I. AQ-1 The project developer(s) shall develop and implement a construction management plan, as approved by the City of Santa Ana, which includes the following measures recommended by the SCAQMD, or equivalently effective measures approved by the City of Santa Ana: 24
