X Strongly encourage the maintenance and upkeep of historic properties to avoid the need for costly rehabilitation and demolition. Demolition should only be allowed if the City determines that it is necessary to protect health, safety, and welfare, and that the structure has no reasonable economic use (General Plan Policy 38.09). X Recognize the potential for prehistoric and historic archaeological resources and ensure that future development takes the measures necessary to identify and preserve such resources (General Plan Policy 38.] 2).

X Adherence to Goal 40 of the General Plan which includes policies to increase public participation in the historic preservation process. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impacts Residential and commercial or retail uses that could occur under the TOO Strategy could involve storage, use and disposal of potentially hazardous materials. Due to the TOD Strategy's focus on residential, retail and commercial uses, there would be a low risk overall for large-scale industrial accidents that could endanger the surrounding community and environment. However, implementation of the plan would result in an increase in population and therefore greater usage of common and potentially hazardous household cleaners, pesticides and herbicides to maintain landscape and control pests, and a greater need for vehicle maintenance. The City of San Leandro finds that, as to the significant effect identified above: Changes have been required of and incorporated into the project. These changes would substantially lessen the significant environmental effects thereof as identified in the Final EIR. This finding is based on the fact that the City of San Leandro shall require any new development occurring under the Strategy to incorporate General Plan policies and mitigation measures, as follows: Miti2:ation for Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impacts Prior to any new development occurring within the TOO Strategy Area, the developer will provide a plan to the City of San Leandro that utilizes all or some combination of the following strategies to reduce hazards and hazardous materials impacts: 9
