SAN LEANDRO SHORELINE DEVELOPMENT EIR ADDENDUM PROJECT CITY OF SAN LEANDRO Page 54 PlaceWorks located) to expand police operations services in order to reduce overcrowding and keep up with demands for services from a growing San Leandro population. Construction began in early 2019 and was completed in late 2021. The Modified Project would not increase retail or recreational opportunities above the amount included in the Approved Project. Additionally, as required by Policy CSF-1.5 of the most recent San Leandro General Plan, the SLPD would be required to review the development plans for the Modified Project to ensure that adequate levels of service can be provided. The Modified Project’s addition of approximately 16 residents (over the Approved Project’s addition of 1,329 new residents) would not result in the need for new or physically altered police protection facilities beyond those renovations completed in 2021 and thus does not constitute a new impact or a substantial increase in impacts compared to the Original Project. PUB-c. As described in the Certified EIR, California Education Code Section 17620 allows school districts to levy fees against new construction projects, which would generate students that would use district school facilities. The most current developer school impact fees are levied by the San Leandro Unified School District (SLUSD) at the rate of $4.79 per square foot for residential construction and $0.66 per square foot for commercial/industrial construction.16 Due to the additional increase of 6 residential units of the Modified Project, the developer school impact fees would be slightly greater than those required for the Approved Project. According to California Government Code Section 65995(h), the payment of statutory mitigation fees is “deemed to be full and complete mitigation of the impacts of any legislative or adjudicative act, or both, involving, but not limited to, the planning, use, or development of real property, or any change in governmental organization or reorganization…on the provision of adequate school facilities.” Since these conditions remain the same for the Modified Project, the Modified Project would result in no new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of existing impacts compared to the Original Project in terms of requiring new or modified school facilities. PUB-d. The modifications from the First Addendum, included an additional 6+ acres of park space compared to the Original Project, with an additional approximately 9 acres of publicly accessible trails, landscaped areas, access drives, and parking lots throughout the project area. As noted in Section 4.14 of this checklist, the Modified Project would add 16 additional residents, representing an increase of 1.2 percent of the total projected population and would not result in a net decrease in park space or open space areas. This incremental amount would therefore not introduce new impacts or increase impacts associated with parks services compared to the Approved Project. PUB-e. For other public services, the Approved Project includes provisions for demolishing and reconstructing the Mulford-Marina library branch, which would be approximately 2,500 square feet in size and would 16The fees are effective on June 1, 2022.
