POTENTIALLY <br />ISSUES POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT LESS THAN NO <br /> SIGNIFICANT UNLESS SIGNIFICANT 11.1PACT SOURCES <br /> ISSUES A1ITIGATION I)\1PACT <br /> INCORPORATED <br />13. RECREATION. <br />a. Would the project increase the use of existing <br />neighborhood and regional parks or other X 2 <br />recreational facilities such that substantial <br />physical deterioration of the facility would <br />occur or be accelerated? <br />b. Does the project include recreational facilities <br />or require the construction or expansion of X 2 <br />recreational facilities which might have an <br />adverse hysical effect on the environment? <br />EXPLANATION: Given the lack of residential uses associated with the project, and the small amount of office development, there <br />are no antici ated im acts on existing neighborhood and re Tonal arks/facilities. <br />14. AESTHETICS. Would the ro'ect: - <br />a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic X 2 <br />vista? <br />b. Substantially damage scenic resources, <br />urcluding, but not limited to, trees, rock X 2 <br />outcroppings, and historic buildings within a <br />state scelic hi hway? <br />c. Substantially degrade the existing visual <br />character or quality of the site and its X ~ <br />sun-oundin s? <br />d. Create a new source of substantial light or <br />glare which would adversely affect day or X 2 <br />ni httime views in the area? <br />e. Create siglrificaut shadow effects on adjacent <br />buildin s? X 2 <br />EXPLANATION: The proposed project, which consists of the construction of two small two-story office buildings, totaling 9,518 <br />square feet, on a total of approximately 0.46 acres, is not anticipated to result in significant aesthetic impacts. The project site is <br />located along a major thoroughfare (Davis Street) and is also across the street from atwo-story office building. Therefore, <br />implementation of the proposed project is not anticipated to substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site <br />and its sulTOUndings. The project site is not considered scenic and therefore no impacts are anticipated. Although the project site was <br />previously developed, typical street lights and indoor lighting of the buildings would increase the amount of light emanating from <br />the project site. However, standard conditions of approval, which require that lighting be designed so that no light spills off-site, <br />would reduce this potentially significant impact to a level of insignificance. The building that will be sited nearest the northwest <br />property line (backing up to the existing residential neighborhood on Dabner Street) will have a 10-foot setback. This should <br />provide adequate privacy to the existing residence. The project has been designed ~~ith adequate setbacks such that no significant <br />shadow effects on adjacent buildings are anticipated. <br />15. CULTURAL RESOURCES.' Would the ro'ect: <br />a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the <br />siglificance of a historical resource as defined X I <br />ui section 15064.5? <br />b. Cause a substantial adverse change in the <br />significance of an archaeological resource X 1 <br />ursuant to section 15064.5? <br />c. Directly or indirectly destroy a unique <br />paleontological resource or site or unique X 1 <br />geolo is feature? <br />d. Disturb any human remains, including those <br />inten-ed outside of formal cemeteries? X I <br />1016-1052 Davis/ PLN2004-00031 -Initial Study Checklist I 1 Apri12004 <br />
