The project site is currently occupied by a concrete manufacturing facility, and is located <br />within a heavy industrial area. Given the developed nature of the site and the industrialized nature of <br />the project area, the existing facility does not currently divide an established community. In addition, <br />none of the proposed aesthetic, drainage, water quality, and safety improvements would result in a <br />' division of an established community. Thus, no impacts would occur in this regard. <br />Mitigation Measures: No mitigation is required. <br />b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction <br />over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal <br />' program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an <br />environmental effect? <br />' Less Than Si_anifrcant Impact.
