On July 5, 2004 a Notice of <br />Preparation (NOP) was circulated for the preparation of Draft <br />Environmental Impact Report No. 2004-01. <br /> <br />In accordance with CEQA, a draft EIR is being circulated for review and <br />comment by the public, local, regional and state agencies, and interested <br />parties on October 15, 2004 for a 45-day review period. One of the <br />purposes of the Planning Commission's actions is to obtain input from <br />interested members of the public on the DEIR submitted at this hearing. <br /> <br />The DEIR has determined that implementation of the project would result in <br />unavoidable adverse impacts to air quality and traffic. All other <br />potential impacts associated with the project were determined to be less <br />than significant or were provided with mitigation to reduce impacts to a <br />level considered less than significant. <br /> <br />The City, after the 45-day review period has ended on the draft EIR, will <br />evaluate the comments on environmental issues received from persons or <br />agencies. In accordance with CEQA, each of the publ ic agencies and <br />interested parties that comment on the draft EIR will be provided a <br />response to their comments. Within the DEIR is the Mitigation Monitoring <br />Program for the project. In addition, the Findings of Fact and Statement <br />of Overriding Considerations have been included (Exhibit 5) . <br /> <br />758-21 <br />
