City Place Sky Lofts Flnal Environmental Impact Report U-2 Any pre-existing underground utilities at the site shall be located prior to construction and abandoned or removed in accordance with state and local codes and regulations. Any utility trenches shall be backfilled under the observation and testing of the resident engineer or inspector. U-3 The applicant shall pay its fair share of necessary telephone improvements including a main conduit structure to bring lines into the project site. Coordination with AT&T and/or Time Warner during the development stage would facilitate service connection. 5.0 MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM When making Findings, CEQA requires that a lead agency must adopt a reporting or monitoring program for the changes to the project that it has adopted or made a condition of project approval in order to ensure compliance during project implementation. The MMRP for the City Place Sky Lofts project, accompanying the Final EIR, is designed to serve this purpose for the mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR. The MMRP requires the City to monitor mitigation measures designed to reduce or eliminate significant adverse project impacts, as well as those mitigation measures designed to reduce environmental impacts that are less than significant. The MMRP includes all mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR and has been designed to ensure compliance during implementation of the project. The City finds that the impacts of the project have been mitigated to the extent feasible by the mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR and the MMRP. The City adopts the MMRP for the City Place Sky Lofts project. The MMRP designates responsibility and the anticipated timing for the implementation of mitigation measures and conditions within the jurisdiction of the City of Santa Ana. That MMRP is hereby adopted and its implementation is made a condition of approval of the City Place Sky Lofts project. The City approves and will implement all the mitigation measures in the Final EIR. 6.0 ALTERNATIVES An EIR prepared pursuant to CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines must describe and comparatively evaluate a range of alternatives to the proposed project (Section 15126.6 of the CEQA Guidelines). Analysis of every possible alternative or options or combination of options would overburden the EIR with an unnecessary amount of detail that would be redundant and complex and would, as a result, fail to provide meaningful information for the City to consider in its review of the project. To develop alternatives that are analyzed in the EIR, a list of potential alternatives was prepared. For this analysis, the project alternatives were evaluated to determine the extent to which they meet the basic project objectives, while avoiding or substantially lessening any significant adverse impacts of the proposed project. The City of Santa Ana selected the alternatives discussed below for a variety of reasons. The goal for evaluating alternatives was to identify ways to mitigate or avoid the significant adverse impacts of the proposed project.
