SAN LEANDRO SHORELINE DEVELOPMENT DRAFT EIR <br />CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />CULTURAL RESOURCES <br />4.4.3 IMPACT DISCUSSION <br />This section analyzes potential project -specific and cumulative impacts to cultural resources. <br />CULT -1 The Project would cause a substantial adverse change in the <br />significance of a local historical resource as defined in CEQA Guidelines <br />Section 15064.5. <br />As mentioned previously, there are no structures in the Project site listed on the National Register of <br />Historic Places; however, as mentioned above, there are two structures within the city that are listed on <br />the National Register, though both are located at a distance from the Project site where it is unlikely that <br />any impacts are expected to occur to the structures. As stated above, the Casa Peralta is approximately <br />2.4 miles northeast of the Project site in the central part of the city, and the Alta Mira is approximately 2.6 <br />miles northeast of the Project site. <br />Buildout of the project would result in the removal of the harbormaster's office, two sets of public <br />restrooms, two existing restaurants, and a foundation from a third building. These buildings were <br />constructed in the 1960s or later and are not architecturally distinctive and would unlikely meet the <br />eligibility criteria for inclusion on the California Register. Given that there are no structures on the Project <br />site listed on the National Register, and the structures on the Project site do not appear to meet the <br />eligibility criteria for inclusion on the California Register, a less -than -significant impact would occur. <br />As described above, the Project site contains three monuments that are not directly related to events that <br />occurred within the Project site, and do not mark specific locations within the Project site. These <br />monuments include the following: <br />• A mosaic depicting the oyster beds associated with CHL #824. <br />• A plaque commemorating the dedication of the San Leandro channel as the Jack D. Maltester <br />Channel. <br />• A Lost Boats Memorial placed in memory of USS Argonaut and the USS Grampus. <br />Construction of the Project may require demolition or relocation of the monuments depending upon their <br />location. Although the three monuments that are not directly related to events that occurred within the <br />Project site, each was placed in honor of historically -important events and are considered locally <br />important historic resources. Demolition or relocation of the monuments would result is a significant <br />impact. <br />Impact CULT -1: The Project would adversely affect locally important on-site monuments. <br />Mitigation Measure CULT -1: Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the Project Applicant shall <br />preserve or relocate the mosaic depicting the oyster beds associated with CHL #824, the plaque <br />commemorating the dedication of the San Leandro channel as the Jack D. Maltester Channel, and the <br />Lost Boats Memorial placed in memory of USS Argonaut and the USS Grampus. Following consultation <br />between the City and Project Applicant with the Office of Historic Preservation regarding the CHL <br />#824 and the United States Submarine Veterans of World War II regarding the Lost Ships Memorial, <br />the City of San Leandro shall provide input regarding the Jack D. Maltester Channel plaque. If <br />P LACE WORKS 4.4-9 <br />
