File Number: 21-435 mitigation measures or alternative. Planning staff has reviewed the proposed project and analyzed it based upon Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines. Pursuant to CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines, the City of San Leandro completed an Addendum (Exhibit A to the Resolution) to the San Leandro 2035 General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The Addendum includes an analysis of the proposed project, based on Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines, and whether the environmental effects from the proposed project would be any different from those disclosed in the Certified EIR. The Addendum concluded that the proposed project would not result in any new significant impacts or substantially increase the severity of any significant impacts identified in the Certified EIR. No new information of substantial importance was identified, and no new mitigation measures would be necessary to reduce significant impacts. Applicable mitigation measures from the Certified EIR will be included as conditions of approval when future projects are processed for planning approvals. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND PUBLIC HEARING DRAFT The draft CAP was presented to Planning Commission on June 3, 2021 and was recommended for conditional approval with Planning Commission recommendations based on comments made during the June 3rd meeting. The recommendations were made 5-1-1, with one Commissioner absent. The Planning Commission recommended that the City Council adopt the 2021 CAP with consideration of Planning Commission comments as outlined below. Chair Boldt ·Make action language more mandatory, include the CAP update to 5 years, time frames and benchmarks for actions ·Equity components are essential. Include mandatory contractor pre-qualifications for projects Commissioner Breslin ·Make action language mandatory and more implementable with a road map ·Commit to Reach Code with mandatory EV parking and solar on new buildings, to be implemented a year from now Vice Chair Pon ·Include concrete transportation actions, such as more bike lanes ·Make action language mandatory ·Give electric bikes/mopeds for people turning in old combustion engine vehicles ·The 2021 CAP did not provide a plan to achieve the 80% reduction in GHG emissions. The elephant in the room was Transportation (60%). To get to 80%, I asked you approximately how much would we need to reduce the Transportation (ICE) source? You guesstimate 2/3rds. My request was to lay out a plan that our City should implement to reach that 2/3rds reduction. If funding wasn't now available to implement, the Council should find that money. The other ideas mentioned were part of the Plan. If there isn't a plan to achieve that 80%, then exclude that 2050 objective from the plan.
