Attachment 3 - Final Environmental Impact Report_Redacted.Reduced.pdf — Chula Vista City Council, November 18, 2025 (part 3 of 3)

Hazards and Hazardous Materials
As described in Section 5.8, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, construction and operation of the project is not anticipated to create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials. In addition, because soil contamination would be remediated to San Deigo RWQCB and San Diego Department of Environmental Health and Quality standards prior to project construction, minor grading and trenching would not encounter contaminated soil that c ould result in a significant hazard to on -site construction personnel or the environment. Further, with compliance with the Construction General Permit and MS4 Permit, project construction would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environm ent through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment. Lastly, the project would not result in potentially hazardous conditions to nearby schools; result in safety hazards or exce ssive noise for people working or residing near an airport; result in interference with an adopted emergency response or evacuation plan; or result in the exposure of people or structures to wildfires. 10 - ALTERNATIVES

Under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative, development would occur in Planning Area B -1 and B-2 and potential use or storage of hazardous materials during construction and operation would occur similar to the proposed project. However, with compliance with the Construction General Permit and MS4 Permit, construction of this alternative would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset or accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment, similar to the proposed project . This alternative would occur on the same project site, so the same less -than-significant impacts would result as it relates to soil remediation, proximity to a school, conflicts with an emergency response or evacuation plan, and risk of wildfires. Therefore, impacts would be similar under this alternative compared to the proposed project.

Hydrology and Water Quality
As described in Section 5.9, Hydrology and Water Quality, through implementation of the requirements outlined in the CGP, construction-related impacts to surface water and groundwater would be minimized and impacts would be less than significant. With incorporation of water quality BMPs and project design features, the project would not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or ground water quality. The project would not substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin. The proposed storm drain system would be sufficient to satisfy Chula Vista criteria in the post-development condition (Appendix I1) and would not result in erosive scour and associated siltation of San Diego Bay. In addition, the project would not increase the rate of surface runoff; would not exceed the capacity of stormwater drainage systems; would not impede or redirect flood flows; is not located in a flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zone; and would not interfere with implementation of water quality control plans or sustainable groundwater management plans.

Under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative, development would occur in Planning Areas B-1 and B-2, and the existing industrial building would remain in operation in Planning Area A. New stormwater infrastructure would be installed and temporary water diversion and sediment capture devices would be used during construction.

Similar to the proposed project, engineered stormwater infrastructure would be created to ensure runoff is not polluted and ensure runoff would not exceed the capacity of existing infrastructure. The storm drain system under this alternative would be required to satisfy Chula Vista criteria in the post -development condition and would not result in erosive scour and associated siltation of San Diego Bay. Potential impacts to hydrology and water quality would be similar when compared to the proposed project.

Land Use
As described in Section 5.10, Land Use and Planning, the proposed project would not result in a significant environmental impact due to division of an established community, a conflict with any land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect. Impacts would be less than significant.

Under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B -2 Alternative, development in Planning Areas B -1 and B-2 would still occur in compliance with the Specific Plan (Appendix B), although no hotel use would be allowed, or would be constructed. Regardless of the exclusion of the hotel, development would not conflict with a land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect. A hotel arguably serves the policies of the Coastal Act better by allowing more p eople to visit the area near the Bay; however, s imilar to the proposed project, land use impacts would be less than significant. 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-24
Noise
As described in Section 5.11, Noise, short-term construction noise is predicted to be well below the FTA guidance of 80 dBA L eq over an 8 -hour period, and therefore is less than significant. Traffic related to construction activities would not result in a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. Potential impacts at existing off-site noise-sensitive land uses along roadway segments and project- generated changes to future traffic noise would be less than significant. Noise generated by Planning Areas A, B-1, and B-2 are expected to be below the City’s 50 dBA L eq nighttime threshold for multi-family residential land uses.

Note that the multi -family residential land use threshold is applied to this analysis due to an absence of City thresholds for hotel land uses. Therefore, impacts associated with stationary operations noise would be less than significant. Lastly, because the predicted vibration level at 70 feet is less than this guidance limit of 0.2 to 0.3 ips PPV and because there are no residential structures adjacent to the project, the risk of vibration damage to nearby structures is considered less than significant.

Under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative, development would still occur in Planning Areas B-1 and B -2, and the existing industrial building would remain in operation in Planning Area A. There would be an increase in noise associated with construction and operation because new land uses would be built and in operation. It is also assumed that predicted vibration level at 70 feet would be less than this guidance limit of 0.2 to 0.3 ips PPV and because there are no residential structures adjacent to the site, the risk of vibration damage to nearby structures under this alternative is considered less than significant. Regardless of the exclusion of the hotel, impacts related to noise would be similar under this alternative when compared to the proposed project.

Population and Housing
As described in Section 5.12, Population and Housing, once operational, the estimated 1,000 jobs that would result from the proposed project would result in some amount of population growth within the City due to new employment opportunities; however, this population growth would not be considered unplanned because the proposed project would restore what was previously a major job center for the City of Chula Vista. No existing residential uses occupy the project site as the site was previously developed with industrial buildings, which have since been demolished.

The proposed project does not include the construction of any residential units and would not displace existing housing or people or necessitate the construction of replacement housing elsewhere.

Similar to the proposed project, no housing would be developed under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative and no housing would be displaced. An increase in employment and/or restoration of previous employment opportunities would also be provided under this alternative. Impacts were determined to be less than significant under the proposed project, and impacts would be similar under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative.

Public Services
As described in Section 5.13, Public Services, the project would not substantially increase the demand of fire protection services requiring the construction of new or expanded fire protection facilities or facilitate the need for additional firefighters a nd equipment. The City’s PFDIF would help cover the cost of new or expanding public facilities within the City, including fire and police facilities. The proposed project would be subject to payment of the PFDIF fees at the rate in effect at the time build ing permits are issued. Payment of the PFDIF would be necessary to ensure that the project contributes its fair share of the cost of fire police facilities and equipment needed to 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-25
adequately accommodate increasing demand within the City. In addition, the project site is located within existing CFDs for CVESD and SUHSD, which impose a special tax on property owners to finance both school districts. Any development of new school facilities resulting from these CFDs would be undertaken by the school district at that time. Pursuant to Education Code Section 17620(a)(1), the governing board can authorize the levy of a fee, charge, dedication, or other requirements against any construction within school district boundaries, and with the school district’s collection of Statutory and Alternative fees developers can fully mitigate any impacts. Lastly, because the project is considered a commercial development, payment of PFDIF for libraries is not required.

Recreation
As described in Section 5.14, Recreation, per CVMC Section 17.10.120, the proposed project would not be required to pay park development fees because there are no proposed residences within the project. Therefore, because the proposed project does not include a new residential population and would not increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated. Impacts would be less than significant.

Transportation
As described in Section 5.15, Transportation, the proposed project would not conflict with existing or proposed bicycle, pedestrian, or transit facilities in its vicinity. In addition, the proposed project (A, B1 , and B2) is located in census tract 12600. The SANDAG average VMT per employee is 18.90 and the threshold of 85 percent would be

Under the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative development would still occur in Planning Areas B-1 and B-2 consistent with land use and zoning designations as outlined in the Specific Plan (Appendix B) and the industrial building in Planning Area A would remain in operation. By excluding the hotel, a reduction in approximately 1,400 average daily trips would occur, which would be a substantial reduction in cars to the surrounding roadway network. However, traffic impacts under CEQA are based on VMT and the average VMT per employee of this tract 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-26
is 15.91, which is below the regional average VMT per employee of 18.90 as well as below the VMT per employee threshold (i.e., 85 percent of the reginal mean) of 16.06. Therefore, it can be concluded that similar to the proposed project, this alternative is in a VMT efficient area for all employee uses. B ecause this alternative would meet the VMT screening criteria, a more detailed VMT analysis would not be required, and can be presumed to result in a less-than-significant VMT impact. Thus, when compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative would result in similar VMT impacts.

As shown in the LMA, the project would be fully responsible for signalizing the Bay Boulevard and G Street and Project Driveway and H Street intersections and retiming the signals at the I -5 Northbound Ramps and E Street, Bay Boulevard and H Street, I-5 Northbound Ramps and H Street, and I-5 Northbound and Southbound Ramps and J Street intersections. The Project would contribute its fair share towards the construction of a traffic signal or roundabout at the Bay Boulevard and F Street. The Project would contribute its fair share towards the construction of a traffic signal at the J Street and L Street intersections with Bay Boulevard. All proposed improvements would achieve LOS D or better conditions during both peak periods except for the roundabout at Bay Boulevard and F Street. The improvements identified in the LMA are recommendations and the final improvement plan and project funding responsibility will be defined and documented in a separate Rohr/Wohl Specific Plan Transportation Conditions of Approval memo.

The Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B -2 Alternative would result in a reduction in 1,400 daily trips associated with the hotel, but another, less intensive land use, consistent with the Specific Plan, would be built instead .

Therefore, traffic trips would be reduced when compared to the proposed project. For example, if a 100,000 square- foot warehouse was built instead of a hotel, average daily trips would be reduced by 900 trips (5 trips/ksf for warehouse uses). Therefore, implementation of this alternative would still introduce uses that would generate daily trips, albeit to a lesser degree. With a substantial reduction in trips realized, there would likely be less improvements and fair share payments required. Traffic implications would not be avoided under this alternative, but they would be reduced.

Utilities and Service Systems
As described in Section 5.16, Utilities and Service Systems, the proposed project would have adequate water, wastewater, stormwater, and telecommunication infrastructure. The project would be required to comply with all local and state regulations regardin g solid waste and the surrounding landfills would have capacity to serve the project. Impacts would be less than significant.

10.4.4 Exclusion of All Planning Area B-2 Alternative
Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 entirely would have reduced construction and operational impacts compared to the proposed project in the near -term. However, B -2 would remain vacant, zoned General Industrial, and future development could still occur in Planning Area B-2, albeit would not be required to adhere to the design guidelines outlined in the Specific Plan. This alternative would reduce near-term traffic impacts because average daily trips 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-27
would be reduced by 5,000 trips. There would also be a reduction in near-term construction emissions and noise; however, development would still likely occur in Planning Area B -2 at a later date, consistent with the underlying zoning and land use. Therefore, it’s unlikely that emissions and noise would be reduced in the long-term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced under this alternative when compared to the proposed project.

Aesthetics
As described in Section 5.1, Aesthetics, from both the Marina Parkway/H Street intersection and the northerly segment of Marina Parkway, the project site is not within westerly oriented views toward San Diego Bay, and therefore, implementation of the Speci fic Plan and construction and operation of potential future commercial, industrial, technology, and business park development in Planning Areas A, B -1, and B -2 would not result in blockage or substantial interruption of existing available views to San Diego Bay from Marina Parkway. The project site is not readily visible from a state scenic highway and proposed development would not remove or substantially alter scenic resources, including trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings. The project would not conflict with aesthetics-related policies of the General Plan. Because implementation of the Rohr Wohl Specific Plan and future development on the project site would be consistent with identified aesthetics -related policies of the Chula Vista General Plan, potential conflicts with existing regulations governing scenic quality are not anticipated, and impacts would be less than significant. In addition, exterior lighting installed on the project site to support operations would not adversely affect nighttime views in the area, and the project would not result in substantial glare that would adversely affect daytime views in the area.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, Planning Area B-1 would still be developed with allowed uses as specified in the Specific Plan (Appendix B) and the existing warehouse in Planning Area A would remain in its current condition and in ope ration. As with the proposed project, development in Planning Areas B -1 would complement the surrounding developments currently underway and would active the waterfront with compatible uses on site. Planning Area B-2 would remain a vacant, graded, and future development would not be required to adhere to the design guidelines as outlined in the Specific Plan (Appendix B). Leaving Planning Area B -2 vacant, while all other surrounding parcels in the bayfront are being developed with compatible uses, would likely result in a greater impact to the aesthetics of the area.

Air Quality
As described in Section 5.2, Air Quality, the proposed project fosters a development pattern that promotes orderly growth by developing on a site with previous industrial uses. As such, the project would not contribute to substantial population and employment growth and associated VMT that was not anticipated for the project site in the existing General Plan. Giving the previous uses that existed on the project site, the anticipated growth in employment and population would be within regional growth forecas ts. Implementation of the proposed project would not conflict with or obstruct the implementation of the RAQS and/or applicable portions of the SIP. Daily construction emissions for the project would exceed the SCAQMD’s significance thresholds for VOC, primarily from painting emissions .

Therefore, the project would have a potentially significant impact related to emissions of criteria air pollutant emissions during construction and mitigation is required to reduce the impact. Mitigation Measure AQ-1 (MM AQ-1) would require the use of super compliant VOC paint, which is 10 mg of VOC per liter. The net daily operational emissions for the project would not exceed the SCAQMD’s thresholds for any criteria air pollutant. Therefore, the project would result in a less-than-significant impact related to emissions of criteria air pollutant emissions during operation.

The construction HRA determined that DPM emissions from construction of the project would result in a Maximum Individual Cancer Risk of 20 in 1 million and a Chronic Hazard Index of 0.011. The Chronic Hazard Index would be 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-28
below the 1.0 significance threshold; however, the project would exceed the cancer risk threshold of 10 in a million and would be potentially significant without mitigation (MM-AQ-2 and MM-AQ-4). The operational HRA determined that DPM emissions from opera tion of the project would result in a Maximum Individual Cancer Risk of 205 in 1 million and a Chronic Hazard Index of 0.055. The Chronic Hazard Index would be below the 1.0 significance threshold; however, the project would exceed the cancer risk threshold of 10 in a million and would be potentially significant without mitigation (MM -AQ-4, MM -AQ-5, and MM -AQ-6). All impacts would be reduced to less than significant with mitigation.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, air pollutant emissions associated with construction, would be reduced, because no development would occur in Planning Area B-2. This alternative would not avoid significant but mitigable emissions related to exposure from construction emissions, because construction air pollutant emissions would still result from the development of Planning Area B -1. Emissions from traffic trips would be reduced when compared to the proposed project due to the reduction in daily trips; however, similar to the proposed project, implementation of this alternative would still introduce uses on Planning Area B -1 that would generate operational air pollutant emissions. In addition, although nothing would be built under this alternative in Planning Area B -2, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning.

Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, would have reduced air quality i mpacts in the near -term and similar air quality impacts in the long -term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced.

Biological Resources
As described in Section 5.3, Biological Resources, The entire project site consists of Tier IV habitats. Tier IV habitats are not considered significant and do not require mitigation. Special -status plant species were not documented within the study area and do not have a moderate or high potential to occur. Two documented special-status wildlife species were found within the study area, American peregrine falcon and osprey. This species has a low potential to nest on site. However, prior to mitigation, imp acts would be potentially significant. MM -BIO-1 would be implemented to reduce impacts to a less -than-significant level. Osprey have a moderate potential for nesting on the site; therefore, impacts would be potentially significant prior to mitigation (MM-BIO-2).

The study area has the potential to support nests that would be protected under the MBTA and/or the California Fish and Game Code Section 3503, under which it is unlawful to “take, possess, or needlessly destroy” avian nests or eggs. Thus, if additional vegetation clearing or grading happens during the breeding season, impacts would be potentially significant and mitigation (MM -BIO-3) would be required. The area is not known to support roosting colonies of special-status bats; therefore, construction is not anticipated to substantially affect either species (pallid bat and western mastiff bat) . Nonetheless, prior to mitigation (MM -BIO-4 and MM -BIO-5) impacts would be potentially significant.

In addition, compliance with regional and local laws, regulations, and policies, would ensure that indirect impacts would be less than significant; the proposed project would result in no impact to riparian habitats or other sensitive natural communities; the project site does not support areas that could be considered jurisdictional by USACE, RWQCB, the California Coastal Commission, or CDFW; the project does not propose any new barriers, such as new development or fencing, that would prevent wildlife move ment; and the proposed project would abide by all local policies and ordinances protecting biological resources in the City of Chula Vista. However, in order to ensure the project’s compliance with the MSCP Subarea Plan, mitigation (MM -BIO-6, MSCP Subarea Plan Consistency and Adjacency) would be required. Prior to mitigation impacts would be potentially significant. 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-29
The Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative would require some additional ground -disturbing activities in Planning Area B-1, but no additional ground-disturbing activities would occur in Planning Area B-2. This alternative could still result in potential direct and/or indirect impacts to nesting birds. This alternative would still require implementation of mitigation measures, similar to the proposed project. Therefore, as development would still occur under this alternative, compared to the proposed project, this alternative would result in similar impacts to biological resources and mitigation would be required.

Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
As described in Section 5.4, Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources, the potential for intact cultural deposits to exist within native soils to the depths of proposed ground disturbance is unknown. In the event that unanticipated cultural resources are encountered during project implementation, impacts could be p otentially significant, and mitigation measures (MM-CUL-1) would be required. The results of the records search did not identify the presence of any previously recorded archaeological sites within t he project site. However, prior to mitigation impacts would be potentially significant. While the potential to encounter human remains is low, in the event that human remains are uncovered, impacts would also be potentially significant (MM-CUL-1). On May 3, 2024, the City sent notification letters pursuant to AB 52 and SB 18 to tribes who are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the area of the project. To date, one response from the San Pasqual Tribe was received on May 30, 2024. In respons e to the ir request, the City provided the project-specific Cultural Resources Report. The City reached out to the Tribe on July 17, 2024, via e-mail to conduct a formal consultation, and no response has been reciprocated. Consultation with Native American tribes is ongoing. Mitigation would still be required to reduce impacts to less than significant.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative minimal additional ground -disturbing activities would be required and it would be limited to Planning Area B -1. As such, this alternative could still result in potential direct and/or indirect significant impacts to cultural or tribal cultural resources. This alternative would require implementation of MM-CUL-1 as proposed for the project. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, this alternative would result in similar impacts to cultural and tribal cultural resources.

Energy
As described in Section 5.5, Energy, construction and operational consumption of electricity, natural gas, and petroleum would not be considered inefficient, wasteful, or otherwise unnecessary and impacts would be less than significant. In addition, the project would not conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency.

The Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative would reduce the amount of energy consumption required during construction because construction would only occur on Planning Area B-1. This Alternative would still consume additional energy during operation because development would occur in Planning Area B-1 and the warehouse on Planning Area A would remain in operation as it currently is. In addition, although nothing would be built under this alternative, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, would have reduced energy impacts in the near- term and similar energy impacts in the long-term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced.

Geology and Soils
As described in Section 5.6, Geology and Soils, impacts associated with landslides, seismic ground shaking, expansive soils and erosion would be less than significant. However, development of the proposed project would 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-30
require excavations for building foundations and utilities, and any excavations into the potentially fossil -bearing strata within the Bay Point and San Diego Formations could result in potentially significant impacts to paleontological resources, and mitigation measure MM-GEO-1 would be required. Impacts would be reduced to less than significant.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative minimal additional ground -disturbing activities would be required for Planning Area B-1, but no additional ground disturbance would occur in Planning Area B -2. However, paleontological resources would have the potential to be disturbed under this alternative and implementation of MM-GEO-1 would still be required. Therefore, when compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative would have similar impacts to the proposed project.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions
As described in Section 5.7, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, the project’s significance is based on its potential to conflict with the applicable plans adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions, including the City’s CAP, the 2022 Scoping Plan, the 2017 S coping Plan, AB 32 Regulations, SANDAG’s RTP/SCS and the City’s General Plan.

As demonstrated in Section 5.7, the project would not conflict with applicable GHG reduction plans and regulations, accordingly, the impact would be less than significant.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, GHG emissions associated with construction, would be reduced, because no development would occur in Planning Area B -2. GHG emissions related to construction and operation would be reduced, because development would only occur in Planning Area B -1 and Planning Area A would remain in operation. Emissions from traffic trips would be reduced when compared to the proposed project due to the reduction in daily trips associated with Planning Area B -2; however, similar to the proposed project, implementation of this alternative would still introduce uses that would generate operational GHG emissions. In addition, although nothing would be built under this alternative in Planning Area B -2, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planni ng Area B-2 Alternative, would have reduced greenhouse gas impacts in the near - term and similar greenhouse gas impacts in the long-term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, development would occur in Planning Area B-1 and potential use or storage of hazardous materials during construction and operation would occur similar to the proposed project. However, with compliance w ith the Construction General Permit and MS4 Permit, construction of this 10 - ALTERNATIVES
ROHR WOHL SPECIFIC PLAN EIR 14541
JULY 2025 10-31
alternative would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset or accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment, similar to the proposed project. This alternative would occur on the same project site, so the same less-than-significant impacts would result as it relates to soil remediation, proximity to a school, conflicts with an emergency response or evacuation plan, and risk of wildfires. Therefore, impacts would be similar under this alternative compared to the proposed project, regardless of the exclusion of development in Planning Area B-2.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, development would occur in Planning Areas B -1 and the existing industrial building would remain in operation in Planning Area A. New stormwater infrastructure would be installed and temporary water diversion and sediment capture devices would be used during construction. Similar to the proposed project, engineered stormwater infrastructure would be created to ensure runoff is not polluted and ensure runoff would not exceed the capacity of existing infras tructure. The storm drain system under this alternative would be required to satisfy Chula Vista criteria in the post-development condition and would not result in erosive scour and associated siltation of San Diego Bay. Potential impacts to hydrology and water quality would be similar when compared to the proposed project.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, development in Planning Areas B -1 would still occur in compliance with the Specific Plan (Appendix B) ; however, future development in Planning Area B -2 would not be required to adhere to the Specific Plan and would instead be subject to the existing regulations as outlined in the City’s Municipal Code. Although future development in Planning Area B -2 would likely not conflict with a land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect, it may be less cohesive or compatible due to its nonconformance with the Specific Plan. Overall, land use impacts would be less than significant similar to the proposed project.

Noise
As described in Section 5.11, Noise, short-term construction noise is predicted to be well below the FTA guidance of 80 dBA L eq over an 8 -hour period, and therefore is less than significant. Traffic related to construction activities would not result in a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. Potential impacts at existing off-site noise-sensitive land uses along roadway segments and project- generated changes to future traffic noise would be less than significant. Noise generated by Planning Areas A, B-1, and B-2 are expected to be below the City’s 50 dBA L eq nighttime threshold for multi-family residential land uses.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, development would still occur in Planning Area B-1, and the existing industrial building would remain in operation in Planning Area A. There would be an increase in noise associated with construction an d operation because new land uses would be built and in operation ; however, excluding development in Planning Area B-2 altogether would result in reduced construction noise and vibration in the near-term. However, although nothing would be built under this alternative in Planning Area B-2, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B -2 Alternative, would have reduced noise impac ts in the near - term and similar noise impacts in the long-term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced.

The proposed project does not include the construction of any residential units and would not displace existing housing or people or necessitate the construction of replacement housing elsewhere.

Similar to the proposed project, no housing would be developed under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative and no housing would be displaced. An increase in employment and/or restoration of previous employment opportunities would still be provided under this alternative due to the development in Planning Area B -1 and the continued use of Planning Area A. Impacts were determined to be less than significant under the proposed project, and impacts would be similar under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative.

Public Services
As described in Section 5.13, Public Services, the project would not substantially increase the demand of fire protection services requiring the construction of new or expanded fire protection facilities or facilitate the need for additional firefighters and equipment. The City’s PFDIF would help cover the cost of new or expanding public facilities within the City, including fire and police facilities. The proposed project would be subject to payment of the PFDIF fees at the rate in effect at the time build ing permits are issued. Payment of the PFDIF would be necessary 10 - ALTERNATIVES

to ensure that the project contributes its fair share of the cost of fire police facilities and equipment needed to adequately accommodate increasing demand within the City. In addition, the project site is located within existing CFDs for CVESD and SUHSD, which impose a special tax on property owners to finance both school districts. Any development of new school facilities resulting from these CFDs would be undertaken by the school district at that time. Pursuant to Education Code Section 17620(a)(1), the governing board can authorize the levy of a fee, charge, dedication, or other requirements against any construction within school district boundaries, and with the school district’s collection of Statutory and Alternative fees developers can fully mitigate any impacts. Lastly, because the project is considered a commercial development, payment of PFDIF for libraries is not required.

Under the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative development would still occur in Planning Area B-1 consistent with land use and zoning designations as outlined in the Specific Plan (Appendix B) and the industrial building in Planning Area A would remain in operation. Payment of the City’s PFDIF would still be required under this alternative to help cover the cost of new or expanding public facilities within the City. However, a reduced amount of resources would be required to serve development under th is alternative in the near-term when compared to the proposed project. Although nothing would be built under this alternative in Planning Area B-2, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, would have reduced impacts in the near-term and similar impacts in the long-term. Impacts would not be substantially reduced.

Impacts would be similar to the proposed project.

16.06 VMT per employee or below. The average VMT per employee of this tract is 15.91, which is below the regional average VMT per employee of 18.90 as well as below the VMT per employee threshold (i.e., 85 percent of the reginal mean) of 16.06. Therefore, it can be concluded that the proposed project is in a VMT efficient area for all employee uses.

By excluding development in Planning Area B -2 entirely, a reduction in approximately 5,000 average daily trips would occur, which would be a substantial reduction in cars to the surrounding roadway network. However, traffic impacts under CEQA ar e based on VMT and the average VMT per employee of this tract is 15.91, which is below the regional average VMT per employee of 18.90 as well as below the VMT per employee threshold (i.e., 85 percent of the reginal mean) of 16.06. Therefore, it can be concluded that similar to the proposed project, this alternative is in a VMT efficient area for all employee uses. B ecause this alternative would meet the VMT screening criteria, a more detailed VMT analysis would not be required, and can be presumed to result in a less -than-significant VMT impact. Thus, when compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative would result in the same VMT impacts.

As it relates to the reduction in trips as a result of this alternative, it can be assumed that less improvements and fair share payments would be required. However, although nothing would be built under this alternative in Planning Area B -2, development would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning.

Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning A rea B-2 Alternative, would have reduced traffic implications in the near-term and similar traffic implications in the long-term.

The Exclusion of All Planning Area B-2 Alternative would develop Planning Area B -1 consistent with land use and zoning designations as outlined in the Specific Plan (Appendix B) and the industrial building in Planning Area A would remain in operation. Additional water supply would be needed, wastewater would be generated, and solid waste would be disposed of during construction or operation under this alternative. With no development occurring in Planning Area B-2, the demand on utilities would be reduced compared to the proposed project in the near-term.

However, development in Planning Area B-2 would likely occur at some point, consistent with the underlying land use and zoning. Therefore, compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Planning Area B-2 Alternative, would have reduced impacts on utilities in the near-term, but similar operational impacts in the long-term. 10 - ALTERNATIVES

10.5 Environmentally Superior Alternative
The No Project (No Build) Alternative is the environmentally superior alternative because it would involve no changes on the project site. The project site would remain in its current condition, effectively eliminating those project impacts discussed in this EIR. In accordance with CEQA, if the environmentally superior alternative is the No Project (No Build) Alternative, the EIR must also identify an environmentally superior alternative among the other alternatives (Section 15126[e][2]). Table 10 -1 provide s a summary comparison of the significant impacts attributable to each of the alternatives relative to the proposed project.

As demonstrated in Table 10 -1, the next environmentally superior alternative would be the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative. Under this alternative development would still occur in Planning Area B -1 and the existing industrial building in Planning Area A would remain in operation; however, instead of a hotel being built in Planning Area B-2, a less intensive land use would be built instead. Implementation of this alternative would still introduce uses that would generate operational air pollutant emissions and greenhouse gas emissions, but not to the same extent that a hotel would. Compared to the proposed project, the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B-2 Alternative, would have reduced impacts, because a hotel would not be built and a less intensive development, consistent with the Specific Plan, would be built instead. In addition, exclusion of a hotel in Planning Area B-2 would, because of the unique operational characteristics of a hotel, substantially reduce operational impacts associated traffic, and utilities (water supply, wastewater service, and solid waste generation). This alternative would still meet all of the project’s objectives. For these reasons, the Exclusion of Hotel in Planning Area B -2 is considered the environmentally superior alternative.
