3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST <br />1388 Bancroft Avenue Project City of San Leandro <br />Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration November 2018 <br />3.0-42 <br />program for new residential development that was established by TransForm, a nonprofit transportation advocacy organization. GreenTRIP certifies projects that allow new residents to drive less while increasing multimodal mobility. The project meets the <br />GreenTRIP criteria for certification due to the following: <br />• Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT): Using a model created by CARB, the GreenTRIP analysis determined that project residents would drive 33 miles per day per <br />household, which is 34 percent less than the Bay Area regional average. <br />• Parking: The project would include parking spaces at a ratio of 1.2 spaces per unit, <br />which is less than the maximum of 1.5 parking spaces recommended by the program. <br />• Traffic Reduction Strategy: The project would provide all parking as unbundled, <br />which separates the cost of parking from rent and saves residents who do not have <br />vehicles the expense of a parking space that they would not use. <br />2. The project would incorporate sustainable features: the parking lot overhead covering <br />would include photovoltaic solar panels to provide power for electric vehicle charging <br />stations for each parking space; there would be solar panels to supply electricity for all <br />common area use; and a solar domestic hot water system. <br />Therefore, the project would not conflict with or otherwise interfere with the applicable <br />statewide, regional, and local greenhouse gas reduction plan, policy or regulations, <br />including CARB’s Climate Change Scoping Plan, Plan Bay Area 2040 (the regional RTP/SCS), the City’s General Plan, and the City’s Climate Action Plan. The impact would be less than significant.
