C I T Y O F S A N L E A N D R O SAN LEANDRO GENERAL PLAN UPDATE AND HR EXHIBIT A: SCOPE OF WORK AND COSTS As with other Planning Commission meetings, each meeting will be publicly noticed and advertised to an email list of interested parties. Time on each agenda will be dedicated to public comment. Draft materials (e.g., narrative and/or potential policies)will be provided to the Commission (and posted to the websitc) the week prior to the meeting,providing time for advance review. As appropriate, this task will include briefings to the City Council and other City commissions. 5.2 Revisions to the Land Use Map This will be a collaborative task conducted jointly by Barry Miller, The Planning Center I DC&E, and Planning Department staff. General Plan Land Use categories will be reviewed. Changes to existing categories and density/ intensity ranges will be made if needed. Designations will then be assigned to the Map based on existing land use,existing zoning,and adopted planning initiatives. It is expected that minimal changes to the currently adopted General Plan Map will be made through this process. Barry Miller worked with City staff recently (m 2011) to update the Land Use Map to incorporate the TOD Plan, the Kaiser Hospital amendment, and other policy changes and recent developments. While some changes may be required to reflect the Shoreline Development Master Plan,the designations on the current General Plan\lap are not expected to change substantially. There may be minor edits to reflect land use changes since 2011 and map changes which are consistent with existing initiatives or programs. Definitions of General Plan categories also may be edited. Minimizing map changes will reduce the scope and cost of the EIR and keep the dialogue focused on the resolution of existing planning issues (such as traffic,economic diversification, and community character). Once the updated map is prepared, Barry Miller will prepare the land use data inputs needed for traffic modeling. This task typically requires an estimate of the number of households and jobs to be added to subareas (traffic analysis zones) • within the city. Citywide forecasts from ABAG will be used to establish parameters for this process. The projections will cover land within the city and also land outside the city but within the SOI and Planning Area. 5.3 Qualified GHG Emissions Reduction Strategy(OPTIONAL TASK) The City of San Leandro adopted a Climate Action Plan (CAP) in 2009. Subsequently, both the State and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District have adopted criteria clarifying what a CAP must include in order to be considered a "qualified" plan for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as well as incentives for communities that do adopt a "qualified" plan.
