SAN LEANDRO SHORELINE DEVELOPMENT DRAFT EIR <br />CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES <br />application and performed under the supervision of the certified arborist, and prohibition on <br />parking or storing of vehicles and other construction equipment within the protected area. <br />■ Where avoidance of a regulated tree is not feasible, replacement tree plantings shall be provided <br />prior to site plan approval as part of the final landscape plan. <br />Significance After Mitigation: Less than significant. <br />As discussed under Impact BIO -1, the Project could also result in adverse impacts on the monarch <br />butterfly colony if appropriate avoidance measures aren't implemented in accordance with Section 4-1- <br />1000, Interference with Monarch Butterflies Prohibited, of the Municipal Code. The proposed South Golf <br />Course residential component of the Project includes new townhomes located adjacent to the row of blue <br />gum eucalyptus and pines to the west of the monarch butterfly roosting area, and these trees most likely <br />provide important wind buffering functions, and could provide nectaring and resting locations for <br />individual butterflies. Without property controls and management, proposed construction and/or <br />vegetation management activities by future residents could adversely affect these trees and result in <br />indirect adverse effects on the butterfly colony, which would be in conflict with the provisions in the <br />Municipal Code. This would be considered a significant impact. <br />Impact 1310-513: Proposed development would result in removal of trees regulated under City Ordinance, <br />and interfere with Section 4-1-1000, Interference with Monarch Butterflies Prohibited, of the Municipal <br />Code. <br />Mitigation Measure BIO -5B: Implement Mitigation Measure BIO -1A to ensure protection of trees <br />supporting Monarch Butterfly colony. <br />Significance After Mitigation: Less than significant. <br />BI0-6 The Project would not conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat <br />Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other <br />approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plan. <br />The Project would not conflict with any adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community <br />Conservation Plan, or other approved conservation plan. No such plans have been adopted encompassing <br />the Project vicinity, and no impacts are anticipated. <br />Applicable Regulations: <br />■ None. <br />Significance Before Mitigation: No impact. <br />4.3.4 CUMULATIVE IMPACT DISCUSSION <br />BI0-7 The Project, in combination with past, present and reasonably <br />foreseeable projects, would result in less than significant cumulative <br />impacts with respect to biological resources. <br />4.3-22 DecEMBER 2014 <br />
