As described in the CEQA Guidelines, different types of EIRs are used for varying situations and intended uses. Given the permitting and development actions that are related both geographically and as logical parts in the chain of contemplated actions for implementation, this Draft EIR has been prepared as a Project EIR, pursuant to Section 15161 of the CEQA Guidelines. As a Project EIR, the environmental analysis will focus primarily on the changes in the environment that would result from the development of The San Leandro Shoreline Development Project. This Project EIR will examine the specific short-term impacts (construction) and long-term impacts (operation) that would occur as a result of Project approval by the City of San Leandro City Council. 1.2 SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT As a part of a public/private partnership, the City of San Leandro and Cal Coast Companies LLC propose to redevelop the 52-acre site land area (owned by the City) and 23-acre water area (owned by the City), which encompasses the San Leandro Marina and surrounding properties, with residential, commercial, and public recreational uses. Implementation of the Project would involve the removal of many of the structures on the site including the existing El Torito restaurant building, the Mulford Branch Library building, and the San Leandro Yacht Club building.
