surrounding buildings and will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. 4. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City. The proposed project will not adversely affect the general plan as the proposed residential development is a permitted use in the Urban Neighborhood land use designation. In addition, the project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan, including Goal 2 to promote land uses which enhance the City's economic and fiscal viability, Goal 3 to preserve and improve the character and integrity of existing neighborhoods, and Goal 5 to ensure that the impacts of development are mitigated. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15183 as it is subject to a previously prepared Environmental Impact Report (EIR). As part of the City's permitting process, the proposed project is required to undergo an environmental review in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In accordance with CEQA, the recommended actions have been reviewed through an Initial Study (ER No. 2016-79). The proposed project has been reviewed through previously certified Environmental Impact Report No. 2006-12. The certified Environmental Impact Report identified a series of impacts resulting from the plan. Several mitigation measures were incorporated into the Final EIR, with the applicable mitigation measures added to the conditions of approval for this project. The analysis studies several topics, including aesthetics, land use, noise, safety, transportation and traffic. Further, the EIR studies the transition of industrially zoned and/or used land for residential purposes, such as what is proposed for this project. A determination has been made that there are no new significant impacts or any project specific significant effects peculiar to this project. Therefore, in accordance with CEQA Section 15183, no additional environmental review is required as the project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning and General Plan policies for which the EIR was certified. The previously certified Transit Zoning Code project EIR and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program is the appropriate document for the actions proposed. As a result, Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2016-79 will be filed for this project. Resolution No. 2018-02 Page 3 of 7
