6.4...No Reasonable Accommodation or Mitigation Considered When a land-use action disproportionately affects a protected class, public agencies must explore reasonable accommodations or mitigation to avoid discriminatory effect. Examples may include buffers, noise controls, restricted hours, alternative site configuration, or operational limitations. No such accommodations were evaluated, offered, or considered. The project was approved without any measures to reduce or prevent disproportionate harm to the senior and disability- affected residents living at the Trust property. The approval of the project did not account for the presence of senior and disability-affected residents whose rights are protected under the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, Section 504, and California Government Code §11135. The resulting intensification of institutional activity imposes disproportionate adverse impacts on a protected population, without evaluation, accommodation, or mitigation. This failure to consider and safeguard the rights of protected residents constitutes an independent and sufficient basis to vacate and remand the approval so that required disability and fair-housing considerations may be properly addressed 18 City Council 18 — 34 2/3/2026
