Craig Henry stated that it is time to take action and indicated that the City needs to create a strategic plan with the voices from the community through a Townhall meeting. Mr. Henry then stated that the illegal street takeovers are well orchestrated through social media, therefore, law enforcement and the citizens must monitor social media to become proactive and to be solution- driven to deter and prevent this dangerous activity.

Lynn Boone stated that agenda item Number 5 (Fireworks application process) should have been addressed a long time ago.

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM (MMRP)
AND APPROVE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE (CUP) NO. 21-011, AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE (CUP) NO. 21-012 RELATING TO A REQUEST TO DEVELOP AND OPERATE A 131,028 SQUARE-

FOOT, THREE-STORY, PERSONAL SELF-STORAGE FACILITY
PROPOSED AT 3010 NORTH ALAMEDA STREET, COMPTON, IN THE

HEAVY MANUFACTURING (M-H) ZONE

SUMMARY
City Council will consider an appeal of Planning Commission’s decision to not adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) No. 950 & Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) and denial of Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Case No. 21-011 and Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Case No. 21-012, a request of Public Storage to develop and operate a 131,028 square-foot, three-story, personal self-storage facility proposed at 3010 N. Alameda St., Compton, in the Heavy Manufacturing (M-H) zone. The Zoning Code requires that new buildings in excess of 50,000 square feet and self-storage facilities obtain a conditional use permit (CUP) in accordance with Section 30-26 of the Compton Municipal Code (CMC).

BACKGROUND
On April 13, 2022, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the above-listed requests. After due consideration, the Planning Commission did not adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) No. 950 & Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) and denied Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Case No. 21-011 and Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Case No. 21-012 by the following vote: two ‘yes’ votes and two abstained.

As a result, Public Storage (the applicant) has appealed that decision to City Council.

Planning Commission appeals must be considered at a public hearing in accordance with Section 30-26 of the Compton Municipal Code.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project would redevelop a 2.11 acre (92,143 sq. ft.) site comprised of two parcels (6169- 021-032 AND 6169-021-038) which is located southeast corner of E. Weber Ave. and N.

Alameda Street. The project site has approximately 300 linear feet of street frontage along N. Alameda Street and 307 linear feet of street frontage along E. Weber Avenue. The

5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5.5. Staff Report – City Council Appeal of CUP Case No. 21-011 and CUP Case No. 21-012 and MND No. 950
July 12, 2022

subject site is currently developed with a variety of industrial and auto related uses with a total existing building area of 33,602 SF among seven older industrial buildings, which would be demolished to accommodate the proposed project.

The proposed personal self-storage facility is comprised of a 3-story, 131,028 square-foot building which includes a 940 square-foot rental office with 27 on-site parking spaces.

Access to the subject site will be from one driveway on E. Weber Avenue and one driveway on N. Alameda St. The remaining existing driveways on both streets will be removed. Parking will be provided on both the east and south sides of the proposed building for customers accessing the rental office and two loading lobbies. A security gate at each driveway will remain open during all customer access hours and closed and locked during closed hours.

The rental office will be open from 9am to 6pm seven days a week. Customers will visit the rental office to inquire about rental space, pay rent, or purchase packing supplies such as boxes or tape. One to two employees per shift will staff the facility. Based on market conditions, the office and facility hours may be revised after opening. Customers will access the new building and their storage spaces through secured lobbies, using an access code. The site, lobbies, and storage spaces will be accessible to customers from 6am to 9pm seven days a week. The proposed building will be climate-controlled, and all storage units will be accessible only from the inside of the building. Security cameras will be located inside and outside the building. The Security cameras will allow on site review from the property manager and staff, along with remote viewing capabilities for the security company that provides after hours detection and monitoring capability.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The following entitlements are required to facilitate this project:
Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21-011 – a request to develop a building in excess of 50,000 square feet in size;
Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21-012 – a request to develop and operate a personal self-storage facility; and
Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 950 – Adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

The Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process gives the City an opportunity to thoroughly evaluate each CUP request and determine if the proposed land use is compatible with the surrounding vicinity and manage/control potential negative impacts by the imposing conditions of approval on the project.

Staff Report – City Council Appeal of CUP Case No. 21-011 and CUP Case No. 21-012 and MND No. 950
July 12, 2022

This project was routed to the various City Departments, responsible utility providers/public agencies for review and comment and no objections were received. The proposed project as designed, substantially complies with zoning development standards. The proposed personal self-storage facility, is an allowed use in the M-H zone, subject to approval of a conditional use permit and would be compatible with the existing surrounding commercial, light and heavy industrial land uses. The proposed project would visually/aesthetically enhance the subject site and the surrounding area and has the potential serve as a catalyst to revitalize this older industrial area of Compton.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff makes no recommendation regarding this appeal. Pursuant to Section 30-26.5(k) of the Compton Municipal Code, the City Council shall render its decision on the appeal within thirty (30) days after conclusion of the appeal hearing and has the power to:
Affirm the decision of the Planning Commission; or
Amend the decision of the Planning Commission; or
Overturn the decision of the Planning Commission; or
If in the opinion of the Council, the matter requires further consideration, refer the matter back to the Planning Commission for further consideration (without a decision by the Council) with any recommendations the Council may desire.

A. The project applicant shall retain a Native American Monitor from or approved by the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation. The monitor shall be retained prior to the commencement of any “ground-disturbing activity” for the subject project at all project locations (i.e., both on-site and any off-site locations that are included in the project description/definition and/or required in connection with the project, such as public improvement work). “Ground-disturbing activity” shall include, but is not limited to, demolition, pavement removal, potholing, auguring, grubbing, tree removal, boring, grading, excavation, drilling, and trenching.

B. A copy of the executed monitoring agreement shall be submitted to the lead agency prior to the earlier of the commencement of any ground-disturbing activity, or the issuance of any permit necessary to commence a ground-disturbing activity.

C. The monitor will complete daily monitoring logs that will provide descriptions of the relevant ground-disturbing activities, the type of construction activities performed, locations of ground-disturbing activities, soil types, cultural-related materials, and any other facts, conditions, materials, or discoveries of significance to the Tribe.

E. Upon discovery of any TCRs, all construction activities in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall cease (i.e., not less than the surrounding 50 feet) and shall not resume until the discovered TCR has been fully assessed by the Kizh monitor and/or Kizh archaeologist.

Resolution No. _____________

30.Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains and Associated Funerary Objects (MM TCR-2):

A. Native American human remains are defined in PRC 5097.98 (d)(1) as an inhumation or cremation, and in any state of decomposition or skeletal completeness. Funerary objects, called associated grave goods in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, are also to be treated according to this statute.

B. If Native American human remains and/or grave goods discovered or recognized on the project site, then all construction activities shall immediately cease. Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 dictates that any discoveries of human skeletal material shall be immediately reported to the County Coroner and all ground- disturbing activities shall immediately halt and shall remain halted until the coroner has determined the nature of the remains. If the coroner recognizes the human remains to be those of a Native American or has reason to believe they are Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission, and Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 shall be followed.

C. Human remains and grave/burial goods shall be treated alike per California Public Resources Code section 5097.98(d)(1) and (2).

D. Construction activities may resume in other parts of the project site at a minimum of 200 feet away from discovered human remains and/or burial goods, if the Kizh determines in its sole discretion that resuming construction activities at that distance is acceptable and provides the project manager express consent of that determination (along with any other mitigation measures the Kizh monitor and/or archaeologist deems necessary). (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f).) E. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner of treatment for discovered human remains and/or burial goods. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American in origin (non-TCR) shall be curated at a public, non- profit institution with a research interest in the materials, such as the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County or the Fowler Museum, if such an institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accepts the archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical society in the area for educational purposes.

F. Any discovery of human remains/burial goods shall be kept confidential to prevent further disturbance.

31.Procedures for Burials and Funerary Remains (MM TCR-3):

A. As the Most Likely Descendant (“MLD”), the Koo-nas-gna Burial Policy shall be implemented. To the Tribe, the term “human remains” encompasses more than human bones. In ancient as well as historic times, Tribal Traditions included, but were not limited to, the preparation of the soil for burial, the burial of funerary objects with the deceased, and the ceremonial burning of human remains.

B. If the discovery of human remains includes four or more burials, the discovery location shall be treated as a cemetery and a separate treatment plan shall be created.

C. The prepared soil and cremation soils are to be treated in the same manner as bone fragments that remain intact. Associated funerary objects are objects that, as part of the death rite or ceremony of a culture, are reasonably believed to have been placed with individual human remains either at the time of death or later; other items made exclusively for burial purposes or to contain human remains can also be considered as associated funerary objects. Cremations will either be removed in bulk or by means as necessary to ensure complete recovery of all sacred materials.

D. In the case where discovered human remains cannot be fully documented and recovered on the same day, the remains will be covered with muslin cloth and a steel plate that can be moved by heavy equipment placed over the excavation opening to protect the remains. If this type of steel plate is not available, a 24-hour guard should be posted outside of working hours. The Tribe will make every effort to recommend diverting the project and keeping the remains in situ and protected.

Subject: Parking S ummary for the Public Storage facility at 3010 North Alameda Street in Compton, California
Dear Mr. Miranda:

LSA is pleased to submit this summary of parking demand for mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities.

This summary is in support of the proposed 131,028-square-foot (sf) self-storage facility (project) at 3010 North Alameda Street in Compton, California. Additionally, this summary addresses comments from the City of Compton (City) requesting the preparation of a Parking Study presented in the project’s Preliminary Review comment letter dated April 13, 2021.

CITY MUNICIPAL CODE
The City’s Municipal Code requires 1 parking space per 1,000 sf of mini-warehouse/self-storage use.

To meet the City Code, the proposed project would need to provide 131 mini-warehouse/self- storage parking spaces on site. Based on empirical data and parking studies conducted for self- storage facilities, as described below, the City’s mini-warehouse/self-storage parking requirement is excessive for this type of use. LSA has observed mini-warehouse/self-storage operations with similar operations as Public Storage facilities in Los Angeles and Orange counties as well as rates referenced from the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Parking Generation Manual, 5th Edition (2017) and has determined that the parking demand for this type of use is much lower than the City’s requirement.

SIMILAR PARKING SURVEYS
LSA analyzed parking data for six similar mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities near Compton. The mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities are in Harbor City, Inglewood, Marina del Rey, Long Beach, Orange, and Irvine. Parking data collected for Harbor City, Inglewood, and Marina del Rey include gate access data, sorted by the number of entering or exiting visitors per hour over a period of 30 days in September 2016. The overlap of vehicles on site represents the number of vehicles parked at one time. This data was previously used in the approved 1901 West El Segundo Boulevard (US Storage) Parking Study prepared by LSA on January 17, 2017, provided in Attachment A. Parking data collected for the cities of Irvine, Orange, and Long Beach include peak parking utilization at facilities between 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on the highest visited day, Saturday, October 28, 2017. This data was previously used in the approved 4880 East La Palma Avenue (Public Storage) Parking Study prepared by LSA on March 1, 2018, provided in Attachment B.

Visitor data represents the maximum number of visitors within the highest peak hour (for either weekday or weekend) and the facilities’ building size. Using these data sets, a specific parking rate for each project was derived. Table A shows the calculated parking rates of each facility. The following summarizes the building details and parking analysis for the six facilities:

The first mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (US Storage) is 59,216 sf at 24490 Frampton Avenue in Harbor City. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was eight. This represents the highest number of parked vehicles within a 1-hour period for the entire 30 days. Based on the number of visitors, the Harbor City US Storage facility has an average parking rate of 1 space per 7,402 sf. b. The second mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (US Storage) is 52,000 sf at 820 Industrial Avenue in Inglewood. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 10. Based on the number of visitors, the Inglewood US Storage facility has an average parking rate of 1 space per 5,200 sf. c. The third mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (US Storage) is 102,814 sf at 12700 Braddock Drive in Marina del Rey. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 16. Based on the number of visitors, the Marina del Rey US Storage facility has an average parking rate of 1 space per 6,426 sf. d. The fourth mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (Public Storage) is 92,000 sf at 4295 Outer Traffic Circle in Long Beach. Based on the peak (weekend) parking utilization from October 28, 2017, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 11. Based on the number of visitors, the Long Beach Public Storage facility has a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 7,667 sf. e. The fifth mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (Public Storage) is 171,000 sf at 16452 Construction Circle in Irvine. Based on peak (weekend) parking utilization from October 28, 2017, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 14. Based on the number of visitors, the Irvine Public Storage facility has a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 12,215 sf. f. The sixth mini-warehouse/self-storage facility (Public Storage) is 125,000 sf at 1040 North Main Street in Orange. Based on peak (weekend) parking utilization from October 28, 2017, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 29. Based on the number of visitors, the Orange Public Storage facility has a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 4,033 sf.

Table B is provided to illustrate the application of the calculated parking rate to the proposed project. As shown in Table B, the proposed storage facility (131,028 sf of mini-warehouse/self-storage use) in Compton would result in a requirement of 20 spaces. The project would provide a total of 27 parking spaces and therefore would provide a surplus of 7 parking spaces on site.

ITE PARKING GENERATION
Additionally, LSA used referenced rates from the ITE Parking Generation Manual, 5th Edition. Rates are derived from a compilation of multiple parking surveys across the country and calculated to generate an average parking rate for mini-warehouse/self-storage uses.

As such, the ITE Parking Generation Manual states that, for mini-warehouse/self-storage land uses, a parking rate of 0.10 spaces per 1,000 sf on weekdays and 0.09 spaces per 1,000 sf on weekends should be used. Application of these rates would require the project (a 131,028 sf Public Storage facility) to provide 13 parking spaces on weekdays and 12 parking spaces on weekends for the site.

The project would provide a total of 27 parking spaces. As such, the project would provide adequate parking supply on site based on industry standards.

CONCLUSION
Based on observations for several mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities and ITE parking rates illustrated in the ITE Parking Generation Manual, identified above, the expected peak parking demand for the mini-warehouse/self-storage use is estimated to be significantly less than the City’s municipal code requirement. As such, the information provided herein supports the parking variance request to the City.

I trust this information will be useful in your planning efforts. If you have any questions, please call me at (949) 553-0666.

Subject: Parking Summary for Compton Self-Storage a t 1901 West El Segundo Boulevard in the City of Compton, County of Los Angeles, California
Dear Mr. Kelly:

LSA is pleased to submit this summary of parking demand for mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities.

This summary is in support of the proposed 186,312-square-foot (sf) self-storage facility with approximately 1,434 units (proposed project) at 1901 West El Segundo Boulevard in the City of Compton (City), County of Los Angeles, California.

The City Municipal Code requires one parking space per 1,000 sf of mini-warehouse/self-storage use. To meet the City Code, the proposed project would need to provide 187 parking spaces on site.

Based on empirical data and parking studies conducted for self-storage facilities, as described below, the City’s parking requirement is excessive for this type of use. LSA has obtained monthly gate access data for similar US Storage facilities in Los Angeles County and has determined that the parking demand for this type of use is much lower than the City’s requirement.

1. LSA analyzed monthly gate access data for three similar US Storage facilities near the City of Compton. The US Storage facilities are located in Harbor City, Inglewood, and Marina Del Rey.

The gate access data was sorted by the number of entering or exiting visitors per hour over a period of 30 days in September 2016. The overlap of vehicles on site represents the number of vehicles parked at one time. The gate access logs are provided in Attachment A. Visitor data is shown based on two methods. The first method measures the maximum number of visitors at each site at any hour throughout the 30-day period. The second method measures the daily maximum number of visitors at each site at any given hour throughout the 30-day period and then averages the daily maximums. Table A shows the calculated parking rates using the monthly maximum and monthly average counts compared to the square footage of each facility.

The parking rates in terms of storage units are also included in Table A, however, for the purposes of this parking summary, the parking rate per square foot has been used because this rate is more conservative than the rate based on the number of units. The parking analysis for the three facilities is summarized below:
a. The first US Storage facility is 59,216 sf with 488 units at 24490 Frampton Avenue in Harbor City. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was eight. This represents the highest number of parked vehicles within a 1-hour period for the entire 30 days. The average daily maximum number of hourly visitors was five visitors. This represents the daily average of the number of parked vehicles over 30 days. Based on the number of visitors, the Harbor City US Storage facility has a

1 Measures the maximum number of visitors at the site at any given hour in the month of September 2016 (Frampton Storage: 59,216 sf / 488 units).
2 Measures the maximum number of visitors at the sit e per day at any given hour in the month of September 2016, and then takes the average for the daily maximums (Inglewood Storage: 52,000 sf / 529 units). 3 Parking rates are in terms of 1 space per XX SF/un it (Marina Del Rey Storage: 102,814 sf / 1,103 units). 4 Compton Parking Spaces calculated by dividing the parking rate by the Compton Storage square footage or number of units (Compton Storage: 186,312 sf / 1,434 units).

Max = maximum
SF = square feet/foot

minimum (average) parking rate of 1 space per 11,864 sf, and a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 7,415 sf. Applying this parking rate to the proposed storage facility in the City would result in a requirement of a minimum of 16 spaces or a maximum of 26 spaces. b. The second US Storage facility is 52,000 sf with 529 units at 820 Industrial Avenue in Inglewood. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 10. The average daily maximum number of hourly visitors was 7. Based on the number of visitors, the Inglewood US Storage facility has a minimum (average) parking rate of 1 space per 7,429 sf, and a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 5,200 sf. Applying this parking rate to the proposed storage facility in the City would result in a requirement of a minimum of 26 spaces or a maximum of 36 spaces. c. The third US Storage facility is 102,814 sf with 1,103 units at 12700 Braddock Drive in Marina Del Rey. Based on the gate access data for the month of September 2016, the maximum number of hourly visitors was 16. The average daily maximum number of hourly visitors was 9. Based on the number of visitors, the Marina Del Rey US Storage facility has a minimum (average) parking rate of 1 space per 11,424 sf, and a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 6,426 sf. Applying this parking rate to the proposed storage facility in the City would result in a requirement of a minimum of 17 spaces or a maximum of 31 spaces.

As shown in Table A, the average of all three US Storage facilities gives a minimum (average) parking rate of 1 space per 10,239 sf, and a maximum parking rate of 1 space per 6,347 sf.

Applying this parking rate to the proposed storage facility in Compton would result in a requirement of a minimum of 20 spaces or a maximum of 31 spaces.

3 2. The Trip Generation and Parking Study for Storage Facilities in the Los Angeles Area (Crain & Associates, 1987) is a thorough analysis of five different storage facilities. The five storage facilities are in the Cities of Glendale, Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Wilmington. This study was based on data collected through multiday parking lot and driveway surveys. The study is provided in Attachment B. These facilities had an average occupancy of 95 percent at the time of the surveys. According to this study, the average parking rate per available unit is 0.01 space per unit. Applying this parking rate to the proposed self-storage facility in the City (i.e., 1,434 units) would require a minimum of 15 spaces.

Based on the parking studies for mini-warehouse/self-storage facilities identified above, the peak parking demand is estimated to be significantly less than the City’s municipal code requirement. As such, the information provided herein supports the parking variance request to the City.

I trust this information will be useful in your planning efforts. If you have any questions, please call me at (949) 553-0666.

Sincerely,
LSA Associates, Inc.

Subject: 4880 East La Palma Avenue Parking Analysis
Dear Mr. Ulrich:

LSA is pleased to submit this analysis of parking for the expansion of the Public Storage location at 4880 East La Palma Avenue (project) in Anaheim. The proposed project will demolish the existing 67,939- square-foot (sf) single-story storage facility and construct a 393,040-gross-square-foot (gsf) storage facility within two climate-controlled buildings in two phases. Access to the site is provided through a driveway on the north side of the site that connects to La Palma Avenue. Figure 1 (attached) illustrates the project site plan. As shown on Figure 1, the project proposes to provide 50 passenger vehicle parking spaces and 2 truck loading spaces.

The off-street parking requirements in Anaheim are specified in Anaheim Municipal Code (AMC) Section 18.42.040. As shown in Table A, the AMC requirement for the project is 108 parking spaces.

However, the site was designed based on the knowledge that Public Storage has gained over 45 years of operation. Further, the project is constructing multilevel indoor storage rather than traditional drive-up units. This parking study will (1) investigate the parking demand for self-storage facilities based on local and nationwide data, (2) establish parking demand for multilevel indoor storage, and (3) provide the findings necessary for a parking variance.

Parking Generation – Published Survey Data
The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation , 4 th Edition, provides information based on four decades of research. Survey data is provided for Land Use 151: Mini-Warehouse, which covers self-storage facilities. The fitted curve equation has a high coefficient of variation (R 2=0.86), which

3/1/18 «P:\PUB1704\Parking Study\Parking Letter3b.docx» 2 indicates precision in the prediction of parking demand. LSA applied the ITE fitted curve equation and determined that the project’s parking demand would be 32 vehicles based on ITE data.

Parking Generation – Multilevel Indoor Public Storage Surveys In order to determine parking demand for multilevel indoor storage units, LSA had parking accumulation data collected (attached) at the following three Public Storage locations in or near Orange County:
• Irvine: 16452 Construction Circle
• Orange: 1040 North Main Street
• Long Beach: 4295 Outer Traffic Circle
The location in Irvine is located near the Tustin Legacy and West Park (Irvine) residential neighborhoods.

The facility has a three-story building with 171,000 sf of gross floor area with no drive-up units. Parking is provided in 27 spaces with no gate. Public Storage believes this facility to be the most similar to the proposed project given the type of facility and potential customer profile.

The location in Orange has a four-story building with 125,000 sf of gross floor area and drive-up units.

Eight marked parking stalls and a loading area with unmarked space for six vehicles are located near the entrance to the multi-story building and before the gate. On-street parking is also convenient to the multi-story building. In addition to surveying parking demand in the off-street parking spaces, data collection included the observation of pedestrian destinations. Parking demand for the multilevel building was isolated by subtracting vehicles from the count if the driver’s destination was observed to be the drive-up units. Similarly, vehicles were added to the count if a driver parked on street and was destined for the multilevel building.

The location in Long Beach has a four-story building with 92,000 sf of gross floor area and no drive-up units. Twelve parking spaces are provided with no gate. On-street parking is convenient to the site and the site is within walking distance of residential and non-residential land uses. As at the Orange site, parking surveys included the observation of driver destination. Parking demand for the self-storage facility was isolated by adding vehicles that parked on street for the self-storage use and subtracting vehicles that parked on site for another purpose.

Parking demand was surveyed every half hour at all three sites on a typical weekday and a non-holiday Saturday during operating hours. Table B displays the observed parking demand. At all three sites, the highest observed parking demand occurred on Saturday. Table C calculates the empirical parking rate based on the highest observed parking demand.

As Table C shows, the peak parking demand observed on the surveyed Saturday at the Orange site was much higher than those at the other two sites. On the surveyed Saturday, a total of 17 vehicles were observed parked for the multi-story building at noon. LSA performed a spot survey the following Saturday at noon and observed 9 vehicles. This would result in a rate of 0.07 spaces per 1,000 sf, which would be similar to the other two surveyed sites. However, LSA used the higher observed parking demand when calculating the average parking rate.

Table C shows that the average parking rate for the three surveyed self-storage facilities is 0.09 spaces per 1,000 sf. Applying this average parking rate to the proposed project yields a projected parking demand for 35 parking spaces.

For both the nationwide survey data of self-storage facilities and the observed local data for multilevel self-storage, the anticipated future parking demand is less than the proposed parking supply of 50 passenger vehicles and 2 truck-loading spaces.

3/1/18 «P:\PUB1704\Parking Study\Parking Letter3b.docx» 4 Phase 1
In the existing condition the site consists of single story, drive-up self-storage units. The site has nine striped parking spaces, but most customers park in front of their unit when visiting the site. At the completion of Phase 1, approximately half (36,258 sf) of the single story, drive-up self-storage units will be demolished and replaced with approximately half (196,520 sf) of the proposed multilevel self-storage space. Phase 1 will construct 24 striped parking spaces. Parking in front of the drive-up units will still be possible for the portion of the site that is not changing. Based on the parking rate calculated for multilevel self-storage, the Phase 1 multilevel building would require 18 parking spaces (196,520 sf x 0.09 spaces/1,000 sf = 17.7 spaces), which is less than the 24 parking spaces provided. Based on the AMC parking requirement for self-storage, the remaining drive-up units would require 9 parking spaces (31,681 sf x 0.27 spaces/1,000 sf = 8.6 spaces). These nine vehicles would continue to park in front of the drive-up unit being accessed.

Findings
AMC Section 18.42.110 stipulates that the following findings are necessary for the City of Anaheim (City) Planning Commission or City Council to grant a variance from the AMC parking requirements. Based on LSA’s evaluation of the project, LSA believes the following conditions exist.

That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of such spaces necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of such use.

The analysis presented in this letter identified that nationwide ITE parking rates would predict a maximum parking demand for 32 spaces and that local surveys of multilevel self-storage facilities would predict parking demand for 35 parking spaces. The project proposes parking for 50 passenger vehicles and 2 loading spaces for trucks, which would exceed the anticipated parking demand. Therefore, the project will not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of spaces necessary to accommodate all parked vehicles attributable to the project.

That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon public streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use.

Parking is not permitted on public streets in the immediate vicinity of the project. The analysis presented in this letter identified that maximum parking demand is not anticipated to exceed the parking supply.

Therefore, the project will not increase competition for parking spaces on public streets.

That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent property in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use (which property is not expressly provided as parking for such use under an agreement in compliance with subsection .030 of Section 18.42.050 [Non-Residential Uses-Shared Parking Arrangements]).

The analysis presented in this letter identified that the maximum parking demand is not anticipated to exceed the parking supply. Further, the purpose of trips to self-storage facilities is to deposit or retrieve items from storage. Parking spaces on adjacent properties are not convenient for this purpose.

Therefore, the proposed project is not anticipated to increase demand and competition for parking spaces on adjacent properties.

City of Compton 2.0-1 Alameda Street Public Storage Project Final IS/MND April 2022

2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 P ROJECT TITLE
The 3010 N. Alameda Street Public Storage Project

2.2 P ROJECT LOCATION
The project is located on 3010 N. Alameda Street, Compton, California 90222, as shown in Figure 1: Project Location.

2.3 P ROJECT DESCRIPTION
The property is approximately 92,143 square f eet and is currently developed with a variety of industrial and auto related uses with a total existing building area of 33,602 square feet among seven buildings.

Assessor parcel numbers for the property are 6169-021-032 and 6169-021-038.

The proposed Project would demolish all the existing buildings and site improvements and construct one, three-story self-storage building with associated site improvements, as shown in Figure 2: Site Plan. The proposed building would contain 131,028 square feet, including a 940 square feet rental office, and would be approximately 44 feet to the top of the roof parapet. The building’s lot coverage would be 47.4%,3 and would have a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 1.42.4 The Project site is in the MH zone which li mits building lot coverage to 50% and building height to 75 feet.

The new building would feature a contemporary architectural design composed of plaster, split face CMU, spandrel glass and storefront glass. Vertical and horizontal lines, and color and material changes would visually break up the building facades. Site improvements would include a landscaped border along the street frontage and tree islands within the parking area. This includes 18 trees for the street frontage and 10 trees in the parking area. Landscape improvements will be irrigated with an automatic irrigation system and conforms to all applicable codes and ordinances.5
Access to the site would be from a driveway on E. Weber Avenue and a driveway on N. Alameda St . The remaining existing driveways on both streets would be removed. A total of 27 parking spaces would be provided on the east and south sides of the building.

The parking study conducted for this project identified the requirement of 20 parking spaces b ased on demand for the site. The total of 27 parking spaces would provide adequate parking based on the

3 Lot Coverage: 43,676 sf / 92,143 sf = 47.4%. Conceptual Site Plan 5/10/21, accessed November 4, 2021. 4 Floor Area Ratio: 131,028 sf / 92,143 sf = 1.42. Conceptual Site Plan 5/10/21, accessed November 4, 2021. 5 Conceptual Landscape Plan 5/10/21, accessed November 4, 2021.

standards used in the parking study .6 The building would be accessible to customers from 6am to 9pm seven days a week. Customers would access the new building through secured lobbies, using an access code. The proposed building would be climate controlled, and all storage units would be accessible only from the inside of the building. The rental office would be open from 9am to 6pm seven days a week. One to two employees per shift would staff the facility.

A new six-foot tubular steel fence would surround the rental office, customer parking area and building entrances. The gates will be completely open during business hours and closed and loc ked when the facility is closed. In addition to the fencing, Exterior LED lighting would illuminate all customer areas and would provide a deterrent to unwanted afterhours activity. Exterior lighting would be shielded to prevent spilling onto any adjacent properties.

Security cameras would be located inside and outside the building. The property would be monitored by an alarm system that provides video clip verification of an intruder prior to dispatching the police. This system reduces the likelihood of false alarms by having a central station operator review and authenticate video of all triggered alarms.

2.4 APPROVAL ACTIONS
The proposed Project would require discretionary approval by the City of the following:
• Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for self-storage, Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21-011 • CUP for a project over 50,000 Square feet, Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21-012 • Variance to allow less than the code specified parking, Variance Case No. 21-002 • California Environmental Quality Act, Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 950 The Project would also be subject to building review for compliance with the latest/current government California Buildin g Code (CBC), California Green Code (CALGreen), California Mechanical Code (CMC), California Plumbing Code (CPC), California Electrical Code (CEC), Title -24, and ADA. However, these are ministerial reviews, as defined by State CEQA Guidelines Section 15268.

2.5 PROJECT CONSTRUCTION
The Project is estimated to require one year to construct, commencing with demolition of the existing uses, grading of the site, building construction, and site improvements. N o subterranean levels are proposed. However, to accommodate the proposed mat foundation and utility connections , soil disturbance would extend to within seven to ten feet below grade.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION

4.1 SUMMARY
Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines, 9 an IS is a preliminary environmental analysis that is used by the lead agency as a basis for determining whether an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), a Mitigated Negative Declaration, or a Negative Declaration is required for a project. The State CEQA Guidelines require that an IS contain a project description; a location map; a description of the environmental setting; an identification of environmental effects by checklist or other similar form; an explanation of environmental effects; a discussion of mitigation for potentially significant environmental effects; an evaluation of the project’s consistency with existing, applicable land use controls; and the names of persons who prepared the study. In addition, the IS includes additional environmental requirements in compliance with federal environmental laws.

4.2 ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED
The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages.

The Project has been identified to have a "Potentially Significant Impact" on Tribal Cultural Resources and as such Mitigation Measures are included in this Initial Study.

Aesthetics Agriculture and
Forestry Air Quality
Biological Resources Cultural Resources Energy
Geology/Soils Greenhouse Gas
Emissions Hazards & Hazardous Materials
Hydrology/Water Quality Land Use/Planning Mineral Resources Noise Population/Housing Public Services
Recreation Transportation/Traffic Tribal Cultural Resources Utilities/Service Systems Wildfire Mandatory Findings of Significance

9 California Code of Regulations, tit. 14, sec. 15063.

4.0 Environmental Checklist
City of Compton 4.0-2 Alameda Street Public Storage Project Final IS/MND April 2022
On the basis of this initial evaluation:

I find that the proposed Project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and is eligible for a Categorical Exemption.

I find that the proposed Project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.

I find that although the proposed Project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or ag reed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.

I find that the proposed Project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.

I find that the proposed Project MAY have a “potentially significant impact” or “potentially significant unless mitigated” impact on the environment, but at least one effect (1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and (2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.

I find that although the proposed Project could have a significant effect on the environment, because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed Project, nothing further is required.

4.3 MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM
A Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) has been prepared in compliance with the requirements of CEQA, Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, and Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code requires a Lead Agency to adopt a “reporting or monitoring program for the changes made to the project or conditions of project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment.” Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines describes additional criteria for an MMP.

Significant impacts, and therefore mitigation, is identified in this Initial Study for Tribal Cultural Resources.

No significant impacts, and thus no mitigation, was identified for the Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forestry Resources, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Energy, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Mineral Resources, Noise, Population and Housing, Public Services, Recreation, Transportation, Wildfires, and Utilities and Service Systems.

The MMP is subject to approval by the City of Compton as part of the approval process of the Project. The Project shall be implemented in substantial conformance with the mitigation measures contained in this MMP. No changes will be permitted unless the MMP continues to satisfy the requirements of CEQA, as determined by the Lead Agency.

As shown on the fo llowing pages, each required mitigation measure for the Project is listed with accompanying listing of: Implementation Action, Responsible Party, Monitoring, and Implementation.

MM-TCR-1: Retain a Native American Monitor Prior to Commencement of Ground- Disturbing Activities
A. The project applicant/lead agency shall retain a Native American Monitor from or approved by the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation. The monitor shall be retained prior to the commencement of any “ground- disturbing activity” for the subjec t project at all project locations (i.e., both on -site and any off -site locations that are included in the project description/definition and/or required in connection with the project, such as public improvement work). “Ground- disturbing activity” shall i
nclude, but is not limited to, demolition, pavement
removal, potholing, auguring, grubbing, tree removal, boring, grading, excavation, drilling, and trenching.

B. A copy of the executed monitoring agreement shall be submitted to the lead agency prior to the earlier of the commencement of any ground-disturbing activity, or the issuance of any permit necessary to commence a ground-disturbing activity.

C. The monitor will complete daily monitoring logs that will provide descriptions of the relevant ground -di
sturbing activities, the type of construction activities performed, locations of ground- disturbing activities, soil types, cultural -related materials, and any other facts, conditions, materials, or discoveries of significance to the Tribe. Monitor logs will identify and describe any discovered TCRs, including but not limited to, Native American cultural and historical artifacts, remains, places of significance, etc., (collectively, tribal cultural resources, or “TCR”), as well as any discovered Native Ameri
can (ancestral) human remains and burial goods. Copies
of monitor logs will be provided to the project applicant/lead agency upon written request to the Tribe.

D. On-site tribal monitoring shall conclude upon the latter of the following (1) written confirmation to the Kizh from a designated point of contact for the project applicant/lead agency that all ground- disturbing activities and phases that may involve ground-disturbing activities on the project site or in connection with the project are complete; or (2) a determination and written notification by the Kizh to the project applicant/lead agency that no future, planned construction activity and/or development/construction phase at the project site possesses the potential to impact Kizh TCRs.

E. Upon discovery of any TCRs, all construction activities in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall cease (i.e., not less than the surrounding 50 feet) and shall not resume until the discovered TCR has been fully assessed by the Kizh monitor Prior to and

and/or Kizh archaeologist. The Kizh will recover and retain all discovered TCRs in the form and/or manner the Tribe deems appropriate, in the Tribe’s sole discretion, and for any purpose the Tribe deems appropriate, including for educational, cultural and/or historic purposes.

MM TCR-2: Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains and Associated Funerary Objects
A. Native American human remains are defined in PRC 5097.98 (d)(1) as an inhumation or cremation, and in any state of decomposition or skeletal completeness. Funerary objects, called associated grave goods in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, are also to be treated according to this statute.

B. If Native American human remains and/or grave goods discovered or recognized on the project site, then all construction activities shall immediately cease. Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 dictates that any discoveries of human skeletal material shall be immediately reported to the County Coroner and all ground- disturbing activities shall immediately halt and shall remain halted until the coroner has determined the nature of the remains. If the coroner recogn izes the human remains to be those of a Native American or has reason to believe they are Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission, and Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 shall be followed.

C. Human remains and grave/burial goods shall be treated alike per California Public Resources Code section 5097.98(d)(1) and (2).

D. Construction activities may resume in other parts of the project site at a minimum of 200 feet away from discovered human remains and/or burial goods, if the Kizh determines in its sole discretion that resuming construction activities at that distance is acceptable and provides the project manager express consent of that determination (along with any other mitigation measures the Kizh monitor and/or archaeologist deems necessary). (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f).) E. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner of treatment for discovered human remains and/or burial goods. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American in origin (non-TCR) shall be curated at a public, non-profit institution with a research interest in the materials, such as the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County or the Fowler Museum, if such an institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accepts the archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical society in the area for educational purposes.

F. Any discovery of human remains/burial goods shall be kept confidential to prevent further disturbance.

MM TCR-3: Procedures for Burials and Funerary Remains:

A. As the Most Likely Descendant (“MLD”), the Koo -nas-gna Burial Policy shall be implemented. To the Tribe, the term “human remains” encompasses more than human bones. In ancient as well as historic times, Tribal Traditions included, but were not limited to, the preparation of the soil for burial, the burial of funerary objects with the deceased, and the ceremonial burning of human remains.

B. If the discovery of human remains includes four or more burials, the discovery location shall be treated as a cemete ry and a separate treatment plan shall be created.

C. The prepared soil and cremation soils are to be treated in the same manner as bone fragments that remain intact. Associated funerary objects are objects that, as part of the death rite or ceremony of a culture, are reasonably believed to have been placed with individual human remains either at the time of death or later; other items made exclusively for burial purposes or to contain human remains can also be considered as associated funerary objects. C remations will either be removed in bulk or by means as necessary to ensure complete recovery of all sacred materials.

D. In the case where discovered human remains cannot be fully documented and recovered on the same day, the remains will be covered wit h muslin cloth and a steel plate that can be moved by heavy equipment placed over the excavation opening to protect the remains. If this type of steel plate is not available, a 24-hour guard should be posted outside of working hours. The Tribe will make every effort to recommend diverting the project and keeping the remains in situ and protected.

If the project cannot be diverted, it may be determined that burials will be removed.

E. In the event preservation in place is not possible despite good faith ef forts by the project applicant/developer and/or landowner, before ground-disturbing activities may resume on the project site, the landowner shall arrange a designated site location within the footprint of the project for the respectful reburial of the human remains and/or ceremonial objects.

F. Each occurrence of human remains and associated funerary objects will be stored using opaque cloth bags. All human remains, funerary objects, sacred objects and objects of cultural patrimony will be removed to a s ecure container on site if Prior to and

The site of reburial/repatriation shall be on the project site but at a location agreed upon between the Tribe and the landowner at a site to be protected in perpetuity. There shall be no publicity regarding any cultural materials recovered.

G. The Tribe will work closely with the project’s qualified archaeologist to ensure that the excavation is treated carefully, ethically and respectfully. If data recovery is approved by the Tribe, documentation shall be prepared and shall include (at a minimum) detailed descriptive notes and sketches. All data recovery data recovery-related forms of documentation shall be approved in advance by the Tribe. If any data recovery is performed, once complete, a final report shall be submitted to the Tribe and the NAHC.

Discussion
a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? No Impact. The City, including the Project site, is relatively flat. As such there are no expansive views from or across the Project site. The City has identified a number of roadway corridors for scenic improvement by means of design guidelines and regulations, public investment, and private incentives. This has included the addition of pedestrian features and bridge crossings on Alameda Street, including at El Segundo Boulevard approximately 600 feet south of the Project site . The Project would replace the existing buildings with a new structure bordered by landscaping, thereby enhancing the streetscape along Alameda Street. As such, the Project would not have an adverse effect on the scenic quality of Alameda Street.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a State scenic highway? No Impact. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Scenic Highway Program protects and enhances the natural scenic beauty of California’s highways and corridors through special conservation treatment.10 Caltrans defines a scenic highway as any freeway, highway, road, or other public ROW that transverses an area of exceptional scenic quality. Caltrans designates a scenic highway by evaluating how

much of the natural landscape a traveler sees and the extent that visual intrusions degrade the scenic corridor. There are no State highways and no designated scenic highways in the vicinity of the Project site.

The Project would replace the existing buildings with a new structure bordered by landscaping, thereby enhancing the streetscape along Alameda Street. As such, the Project would not h ave an adverse effect on the scenic quality of Alameda Street.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. c. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings?
No Impact. The Project site would replace the existing buildings with an architecturally cohesive building featuring landscaping along the street frontage. As such, the Project would improve the visual character and quality of the site and would not degrade the visual character or qu ality of the site and its surroundings.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare, which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?
Less Than Significant Impact. Existing light sources in the vicinity of the Project site include exterior lighting from surrounding mostly commercial and industrial uses. Vehicles on the adjacent street also have nighttime lighting. The Project would have exterior light sources on the structure for security. Chapter 30-

19.5 of the CMC contains lighting standards for new development. Compliance with this Municipal Code would ensure that the new light sources created by the Project would not create glare or adversely affect the surrounding uses. Consequently, the Project would not create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required.

Discussion
a. Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to nonagricultural use?
No Impact. Compton is primarily an urban environment with no agricultural land under commercial cultivation. However, there are two areas of the City adjacent to Greenleaf Avenue that are zoned as residential agricultural. These areas are approximately 4 and 2 miles from the Project site , respectively.

The state of California Department of Conservation classifies the Project site and its surrounding areas as “urban and built-up land.”11 Consequently, the Project would not convert farmland to a non-agricultural use. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required.

Final IS/MND April 2022
b. Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract?
No Impact. The Williamson Act (Cal. Govt. Code, §51200 et seq.) allows county governments to enter into contracts with private landowners who agree to restrict parcels of land to agricultural uses or uses compatible with agriculture for at least ten years. In return, landowners receive property tax assessments that are much lower than normal because they are based upon income derived from farming and open space uses as opposed to full market value of the property. Although, as noted above, there are two areas of the City zoned for residential agriculture, there are no ded icated agriculture use currently within the City and no Williamson Act contracts. Consequently, the Project would not conflict with an agricultural use or Williamson Act contract. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. c. Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning of, forest land (as defined in Public Resources Code section 12220(g)), timberland (as defined by Public Resources Code section 4526), or timberland zoned Timberland Production (as defined by Government Code section 51104(g))?
No Impact. The City, inclusive of the Project site, is developed with urban land uses. There are no forest, timberlands or forest zoning in the City. 12 Consequently, the Project would not conflict with zonin g for forest land. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. d. Result in the loss of forestland or conversion of forestland to non-forest use?
No Impact. As discussed in Section 5.2.c of this IS, above, the City, inclusive of the Project site, is developed with urban land uses. There are no forest, timberlands or forest zoning in the City. Consequently, the Project would not result in the loss or conversion of forest land. No impact would occur.

AIR QUALITY – Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project:

increase of any criteria pollutant for which

d. Result in other emissions (such as those
leading to odors) adversely affecting a
substantial number of people?
Discussion
The conclusions of this section are based on the findings of the Air Quality Study that is included as Appendix A to this IS.
a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? Less Than Significant Impact. The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) adopted an updated air quality management plan (AQMP) in March 2017. 13 The Final 2016 AQMP was prepared to comply with the federal and State Clean Air Acts and amendm ents; accommodate growth; reduce pollutants in the Basin; meet federal and State air quality standards; and minimize the fiscal impact of pollution control measures on the local economy. It builds on approaches in the previous AQMP to achieve attainment of the federal ozone air quality standard. These planning efforts have substantially decreased exposure to unhealthy levels of pollutants, even while substantial population growth has occurred within the Basin. Projects that are considered to be consistent with the AQMP would not interfere with attainment because this growth is included in the projections utilized in the formulation of the AQMP .

Therefore, projects, uses, and activities that are consistent with the applicable assumption used in the development of the AQMP would not jeopardize attainment of the air quality levels identified in the AQMP , even if they exceed the SCAQMD’s recommended daily emissions thresholds.

SCAG has the responsibility for preparing and approving the portions of the AQMP relating to regional demographic projections and integrated regional land use, housing, employment, and transportation programs, measures, and strategies. With respect to the determination of consistency with AQMP growth assumptions, the projections in the AQMP for achieving air quality goals are based on assumptions in SCAG’s 2016–2040 RTP/SCS regarding population, housing, and growth trends. With regard to air quality planning, SCAG has prepared and adopted the 2020 –2045 RTP/SCS, 14 which includes a Sustainable
Communities Strategy that addresses regional development and growth forecasts. Determining whether or not a project exceeds SCAG’s growth forecasts involves the evaluation of the following: (1) consistency with applicable population, housing, and employ ment growth projections; (2) project mitigation measures; and (3) appropriate incorporation of AQMP land use planning strategies.

A project is consistent with the AQMP , in part, if it is consistent with the population, housing, and employment assumptions that were used in the development of the AQMP . The 2020 –2045 RTP/SCS provides socioeconomic forecast projections of regional population growth. These growth forecasts are based on local plans and policies applicable to the specific area. The proposed Proje ct does not result in population and housing growth that would cause growth in the City to exceed the SCAG forecast because the proposed Project does not include the development of residential uses.

Additionally, the Basin is currently designated as nonattainment at the federal level for ozone and PM2.5; and at the State level for ozone, PM10, and PM2.5. SCAQMD developed regional emissions thresholds to determine whether a project would contribute to air pollutant violations. If a project exceeds the regional air pollutant thresholds, then it would significantly contribute to air quality violations in the Basin. As discussed further in Table 5.3-1 below, temporary emissions associated with construction of the proposed Project would exceed not SCAQMD thresho lds for regional emissions. As such, the proposed Project is consistent with the growth assumptions in the regional air plan and would not contribute to air quality violations in the Basin. Impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. b. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is nonattainment under an applicable federal or State ambient air quality standard?
Less Than Significant Impact. A significant impact could occur if the proposed Project would add a considerable cumulative contribution to Federal or State nonattainment pollutants. The Basin is currently

in State nonattainment for O3, PM10, and PM2.5. 15 In regard to determining the significance of the proposed Project contribution, the SCAQMD neither recommends quantified analyses of construction and/or operational emissions from multiple related projects nor provides methodologies or thresholds of significance to be used to assess the cumulative emissions generated by multiple cumulative projects.

Instead, the SCAQMD recommends that a project’s potential contribution to cumulative impacts be assessed utilizing the same significance criteria as those for project -specific impacts. Furthermore, SCAQMD states that “projects that do not exceed the project -specific thresholds are generally not considered to be cumulatively significant.”
16 Therefore, if a project generates less than significant construction or operational emissions, then the project would not generate a cumulatively considerable increase in emissions for those pollutants for which the Basin is in nonattainment.

It is important to note, emissions presented in Table 5.3-1 do not include regulatory compliance measures such as construction equipment controls (Tier 3 emissions standards with Level 3 DPF) or control efficiency of PM10 (dus t control measures) to provide a worst -case scenario analysis. Based on the modeling, construction of the Project would not exceed regional VOC, NOx, CO, SOx, PM10, and PM2.5 concentration thresholds. All criteria air pollutants would be below SCAQMD const ruction thresholds. Construction of the Project would not generate any significant environmental impacts associated with air quality compliance.

The results presented in Table 5.3 -2: Maximum Operational Emissions are compared to the SCAQMD - established operational significance thresholds. As shown in Table 5.3-2, the operational emissions would

SCAQMD has stated that if an individual project generates less than significant construction or operational emissions, then the project would not generate a cumulatively considerable increase in emissions for those pollutants. The Project would not generate construction or operational emissions that exceed the SCAQMD’s recommended regional thresholds of significance and therefore the Project would not generate a cumulatively considerable increase. As such, the Project would result in less than significant impacts.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. c. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? Less than Significant Impact. The local significance thresholds are based on the SCAQMD’s Final Localized Significance Threshold (LST) Methodology (LST Methodology) 17 guidance document for short -duration construction activities. The SCAQMD recommends the evaluation of localized air quality impacts to sensitive receptors in the immediate vicinity of the Project site because of construction activities . The results of the LST analysis are provided in Table 5.3-3: Localized Construction and Operational Emissions.

These estimates assume the maximum area that would be disturbed during construction on any given day during Project buildout. It is important to note, emissions presented in Table 5.3 -3 do not include regulatory compliance measures such as construction equipment controls (Tier 3 emissions standards with

d. Result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people?
Less than Significant Impact. As shown in Table 5.3-3, the construction of the Project would result in emissions below the localized significance thresholds. Mandatory compliance with SCAQMD Rule 1113 would limit the number of VOCs in architectural coatings and solvents. According to SCAQMD, while almost any source may emit objectionable odors, some land uses are more likely to produce odors because of their operation. Land uses more likely to produce odors include agriculture, chemical plants, composting operations, dairies, fiberglass molding manufacturing, landfills, refineries, rendering plants, rail yards, and wastewater treatment plants. The Project does not contain any active manufacturing activities and would

not convert current agricultural land to residential land uses. Therefore, objectionable odors would not be emitted by the proposed uses.

Any unforeseen odors generated by the Project will be controlled in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 402.

Rule 402 prohibits the discharge of air contaminants that harm, endanger, or annoy individuals or the public; endanger the comfort, health or safety of individuals or the public; or cause injury or damage to business or property.

Failure to comply with Rule 402 could subject the offending facility to possible fines and/or operational limitations in an approved odor control or odor abatement plan. Impacts would be less than significant.

a. Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? No Impact. “Special Animals” or “special status species” is a broad term used to refer to all the animal taxa tracked by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (CDFW) California Natural Diversity Database

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-14 Alameda Street Compton Project

(CNDDB), regardless of their legal or protection status. 19 Special-status species include those listed as endangered or threatened under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) or California En dangered Species Act (CESA), species otherwise given certain designations by the CDFW, and plant species listed as rare by the California Native Plant Society (CNPS).

The City is largely urbanized. Natural resources within the City include the Compton Creek, which is located about 5 miles south of the Project site. Compton Creek has a soft-bottom portion with a wetland habitat.

Vegetation in the creek wetland includes cattails and aquatic grasses. Animal life includes killdeer, red - winged blackbirds and great blue heron. Special interest/sensitive animal species identified as potentially occurring in the creek area is the Pacific pocket mouse (Perognathus longimembris pacificus). The special interest/sensitive plant species identified as potentially occurrin g in the area includes the southern tarplant (Centromadia parryi ssp. australis), the Coulte's goldfields (Lasthenia glabrata ssp. coulteri), the Parish's brittlescale (Atriplex parishii), the coastal dunes milk-vetch (Astragalus tener var. titi), the Brand's phacelia (Phacelia stellaris); the spreading navarretia (Navarretia fossalis), the prostrate navarretia (Navarretia prostrata), and the California orcutt grass (Orcuttia californica). No rare or endangered plant species are known to currently exist in the City.

The Project site is disturbed and covered with paving and no landscaping. Surrounding areas are fully urbanized, and as noted above, there are no species identified as endangered, candidate within the City, and special interest and sensitive spec ies are located away from the site in the Compton Creek area.

Consequently, no impact would occur to any sensitive species designated by the resources agencies as a result of Project implementation.
b. Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or US Fish and Wildlife Service?
No Impact. Riparian habitats line the banks of rivers, streams, creeks, and ponds and consist of a variety of vegetation types. These habitats preserve water quality by filtering sediment and some pollutants from runoff before it enters the water body, protect stream banks from erosion, provide food and habitat for fish and wildlife, and preserve open space and aesthetic values.

As mentioned, the Project site is disturbed and developed with several structures. Surrounding areas are fully urbanized. No riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community are kno wn to occur on the site or surrounding area. The one natural habitat area identified in the General Plan is Compton Creek located

about 5 miles south of the Project site.20 Consequently, Project implementation would not result in any impacts to riparian or other sensitive natural community. No impact would occur. c. Have a substantial adverse effect on State or federally protected wetlands (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means? No Impact. There are three key agencies that regulate activities within inland streams, wetlands, and riparian areas in California. The Corps Regulatory Branch regulates discharge of dredge or fill materials into “waters of the United States” pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act. Of the State agencies, the CDFW regulates alterations to streambed and bank under Fish and Wildlife Code Sections 1600 et seq., and the Regional Board regulates discharges into surface waters pursuant to Section 401 of the CWA and the California Porter -Cologne Water Quality Control Act.

Wetlands are defined under the federal Clean Water Act as land that is flooded or saturated by surface water or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that normally does support, a prevalence of vegetation adapted to life in saturated soils. Wetlands include areas such as swamps, marshes, streams, lakes, and bogs. According to the USFWS National Wetlands Mapper5, there no wetlands within the vicinity of the Project site. As discussed above, the one identified wetland in the City is Compton Creek located 5 miles south of the Project site. Consequently, the Project would not cause a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites?
Less than Significant Impact. Habitat linkages provide connections between larger habitat areas that are separated by development. Wildlife corridors are similar to linkages but provide specific opportunities for animals to disperse or migrate between areas. A corridor can be defined as a linear landscape feature of sufficient width to allow animal movement between two comparatively undisturbed habitat fragments.

Adequate cover is essential for a corridor to function as a wildlife movement area. It is possible for a habitat corridor to be adequate for one species yet still inadequate for others. Wildlife corridors are features that allow for the dispersal, seasonal migration, breeding, and foraging of a variety of wildlife species.

Additionally, open space can provide a buffer against both human disturbance and natural fluctuations in resources.

As discussed above, the Project site is surrounded by urban land uses and does not contain ide ntified native or sensitive species, riparian or sensitive habitats or wetlands. There are no trees on the site, as such the site is unlikely to provide suitable habitat, including nesting habitat, for migratory birds under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and under Section 3513 et. seq. of the CDFW Code.6 The site is mostly paved and does not provide the large dirt fields that support burrowing owls. Consequently, Project impacts regarding substantial interference with the movement of a species would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. e. Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as tree preservation policy or ordinance? No Impact. There is no existing ve getation on the Project site . Neither the General Plan nor Municipal Code contain policies identifying or protecting specified tree species. Consequently, the Project would not conflict with a policy that protects biological resources such as a tree preservation policy. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. f. Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plan?
No Impact. The City does not have any adopted Habitat Conservation Plans, Natural Community Conservation Plans or other conservation plans within its corporate boundaries. Consequently, the Project would not conflict with provi sions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan or Natural Community Conservation Plan. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

Discussion
a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in section 15064.5?
Less than Significant Impact. State CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(a) defines a “historical resource” as a resource that meets one or more of the following criteria:
• Listed in, or eligible for listing in, the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) • Listed in a local register of historical resources (as defined at Cal. Public Res. Code § 5020.1(k)) • Identified as significant in a historical resource survey meeting the requirements of § 5024.1(g) of the Cal. Public Res. Code
• Determined to be a historical resource by a project's lead agency (Cal. Code Regs. tit. 14(3), § 15064.5(a))
A “historical resource” under CEQA, as defined by California Public Resources Code (PRC) Part 5020.1(j) is any object, building, site, area, place, record, or manuscript that is historically or archaeologically significant, or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educatio nal, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California. Guidelines for CEQA further define a “historical resource” as any resource listed in or determined eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, included in a lo cal register of historical resources, or determined to be historically significant by the Lead Agency. Additionally, a resource would be automatically listed in the California Register if it is listed in the National Register of Historic Places or formally determined eligible by an agency for listing in the National Register.

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-18 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
The eligibility criteria for the California Register are similar to those of the National Register of Historic Places (National Register), and a resource that meets one of more of the eligibility criteria of the National Register will be eligible for the California Register. Criteria for Designation:
• Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history or the cultural heritage of California or the U.S. • Associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history. • Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values. • Has yielded or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California, or the nation.

Compton has a long history of settlement and contains many historic resources including the Heritage House, which was built in 1869 and is a State Historic Landmark; the First United Method Church, the second oldest protestant church in Southern California; the 100-years-old Angeles Abbey Cemetery; and the Woodlawn Cemetery, a Los Angeles County Historic Landmark. However, no historic resources are located on or adjacent to the Project site . As such, the Project would not result in a change to the significance of a historical resource.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to section 15064.5?
Less than Significant Impact/with Mitigation Incorporated. Defined by §15064.5 of the State CEQA Guidelines, “unique archaeological resources” are an archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria:

1. Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information.

2. Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type.

3. Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person.

4. Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information.

5. Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type.

6. Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person.

The Project site contains existing commercial and industrial uses and was therefore previously graded and built on. The Project would only require minimal grading and excavation for a mat foundation and utility connections. There are no known archeological finds associated with the site and no former use of the site that is associated with an important event or person. As such, the probability of unearthing unique archeological resources is considered low, and impacts would be less than significant. c. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries?
Less than Significant Impact. The Project site contains existing commercial and industrial uses and was therefore previously graded and built on. The Project would only require minimal grading and excavation for a mat foundation and utility connections. There are no known burial locations on or adjace nt to the Project site. As such, the probability of unearthing human remains is very low. If human remains are encountered during construction, State Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coro ner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. 21 The County Coroner must be notified of the find immediately. If the remains are determined to be prehistoric, the Coroner will notify the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), which will determine and notify a Most Likely Descendant (MLD). With the permission of the landowner or his/her authorized representative, the MLD may inspect the site of the discovery. The MLD shall complete the inspection within 48 hours of notification by the NAHC. Therefore, potential impacts to human remains would be less than significant.

a. Result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources, during project construction or operation?
Less than Significant Impact. The following analysis estimates the Project’s electricity, natural gas, and transportation fuel usage and evaluates whether the proposed Project would result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy. In accordance with Appendix F of the State CEQA Guidelines, the analysis includes relevant information to address the energy implications of the Project.

The Project would comply with Title 24, Part 6 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR), also known as Building Energy Efficiency Standards, which regulates the design of building shells and building components. The Title 24 standards are updated periodically to allow for consideration and possible incorporation of new energy efficiency technologies and methods. The CEC adopted the 2019 Building Energy Efficiency Standards (2019 Building Standards), effective January 1, 2020. 22 In addition to the CEC’s efforts, in 2008, the California Building Standards Commission adopted the nation’s first green building standards. The California Green Building Standards Code (Part 11 of Title 24), commonly referred to as CALGreen, establishes voluntary and mandatory standards pertaining to the planning and design of sustainable site development, energy efficiency, wat er conservation, material conservation, and interior air quality. CALGreen is periodically amended; the most recent 2019 standards became effective on January 1, 2020 and would apply to the Project.

Construction
During construction, energy would be directly consumed on a limited basis to power lights, and electronic equipment, and indirectly for the conveyance of water used for dust control during grading. As discussed below, construction activities, including the construction of new buildings, typically do not involve the

consumption of natural gas. Construction would also consume energy in the form of petroleum- based fuels associated with the use of off -road construction vehicles and equipment within the Project site, construction worker travel, haul trips, and delivery trips.

As shown in Table 5.6-1: Summary of Energy Use During Construction and additionally discussed below, a total of approximately 294 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, 37,509 gallons of diesel fuel, and 6,773 gallons of gasoline is estimated to be consumed during construction of the Project.

a Off-road construction equipment encompasses construction equipment on the Project site (e.g., excavators, cranes, forklifts, etc.). b On-road construction equipment encompasses construction worker trips, haul trips, and delivery trips.

Electricity
During construction, electricity would be consumed to supply and convey water for dust control and, on a limited basis, may be used to power lighting, electronic equipment, and other construction activities necessitating electrical power. Electricity would be supplied to the Project site by Southern California Edison (SCE) and would be obtained from existing substations and electrical lines in and around the Project site.

As shown in Table 5.6 -1 above, a total of approximately 294 kWh of electri city is anticipated to be consumed during construction. The electricity demand at any given time would vary throughout the construction period based on the construction activities being performed and would cease upon completion of construction. When not in use, electric equipment would be powered off so as to avoid unnecessary energy consumption.

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-22 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
Due to the relatively short duration of the construction process, and the fact that the extent of electricity consumption is inherent to construction projects of this size and nature, electricity consumption impacts would not be considered excessive or substantial with respect to regional supplies. The energy demands during construction would be typical of construction projects of this size and construction of the proposed Project would not result in the wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of electricity resources.

Accordingly, electricity demands during construction would be less than significant.

Natural Gas
Construction activities do not typically involve the consumption of natural gas as construction equipment and staging rely heavily on electricity and transportation fuels. Accordingly, natural gas would likely not be needed to support construction activiti es; thus, there would be little to no demand generated by construction. As a result, the Project would not result in inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of natural gas during construction. Accordingly, natural gas demands during construction would be l ess than significant.

Transportation Energy
Construction of the Project would consume energy in the form of petroleum-based fuels associated with use of off-road construction vehicles and equipment on the Project site, construction worker travel to and from the Project site , and delivery and haul truck trips (e.g., for deliveries of construction supplies and materials).

The petroleum-based fuel use summary provided in Table 5.6-1 represents the amount of transportation energy that could potentially be consu med during construction based on a conservative set of assumptions. As shown, on - and off -road vehicles would consume an estimated 44, 282 gallons of petroleum ( 37,509 gallons of diesel and 6,773 gallons of gasoline fuel) throughout the Project’s construction period. For purposes of comparison, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecasts a national oil supply of 20.3 1 million barrels (mb) per day in 202 3, which is when the project would be constructed.23 This equates to approximately 7,413 mb per year or 311,304 million gallons (mg) per year.

Construction of the Project would account for less than 0.01 percent of the projected annual oil supply in 2023.

Due to the relatively short duration of the construction process, and the fact that the extent of fuel consumption is inherent to construction projects of this size and nature, fuel consumption impacts would not be considered excessive or substantial with respect to regional fuel supplies. The energy demands during construction would be typi cal of construction projects of this size and would not necessitate

additional energy facilities or distribution infrastructure. The Project will also comply with Sections 2485 in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, which requires the idling of all diesel-fueled, commercial vehicles be limited to five minutes at any location. As a result, the Project would not result in inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of transportation resources during construction. Accordingly, transportation resource demands during construction would be less than significant.

Operation
During operation of the Project, energy would be consumed for multiple purposes associated with the Project, including, but not limited to, heating/ventilating/air conditioning (HVAC); re frigeration; lighting; and the use of electronics, equipment, and machinery. Energy would also be consumed during operation of the Project in the form of water usage, solid waste disposal, and vehicle trips, among others. As shown in Table 5.6-2: Summary of Annual Energy Use During Operation, the Project’s net energy demand would be approximately 389,868 kWh of electricity per year, and 28,008 gallons of transportation fuel per year.

Moreover, the Project would not utilize natural gas.

Electricity
As shown in Table 5.6-2, buildout of the Project would result in a projected on -site net demand for electricity, totaling 389,868 kWh (0.4 GWh) per year. SCE estimates that electricity consumption within its planning area will be approximately 105,000 GWh annually by 2024, when the Project would be fully built out.24 The proposed Project would account for less than 0.01 percent of the 2024 annual consumption in SCE’s planning area. As such, the Project would account for a negligible portion of the projec ted annual consumption in SCE’s planning area.

Natural Gas
Natural gas service would be provided to the Project site by Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas).

However, the Project would not utilize natural gas for any operational activities.

Transportation Energy
As shown in Table 5.6-2 above, buildout of the Project is projected to generate a net demand of 28,009 gallons of transportation fuel. For purposes of comparison, the EIA forecasts a national oil supply of 20.2 mb/d in 2024, which is the opening year for the proposed Project.25 This equates to approximately 7,377 mb/y or 309,834 mg/y.26 Operation of the proposed Project would account for less than 0.01 percent of

Based on the analysis presented above and the calculations provided in Appendix B, the proposed Project would not result in the wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy and thus would not generate significant impacts with regard to energy use and consumption.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. b. Conflict with or obstruct a State or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency?
Less than Significant Impact. The Project is committed to meeting the requirements of the CALGreen Code by incorporating strategies such as low -flow toilets, low -flow faucets and other energy and resource conservation measures. The Project would comply with applicable energy, water, and waste eff iciency measures specified in the Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards and CALGreen standards. As such, the Project would not conflict with energy efficiency plans. Impacts would be less than significant.

Discussion
The conclusions of this section are based on the f indings of the Geotechnical Feasibility Study that is included as an Appendix C to this IS.
a. Would the project directly or indirectly cause potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving:
i. Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42.

Less than Significant Impact. The City is within the seismically active Southern California region. As discussed in the General Plan Public Safety Element, major faults in the region include the Whittier/Elsinore, Norwalk, Newport/Inglewood, Santa Monica, Sierra Madre, Palos Verdes, and San Andreas faults. The Newport – Inglewood Fault Zone is the only active fault zone that lies within the City.

The fault zone is runs through the southwest corner of Compton, and at its closest is 2 miles southwest of the Project site. There are no designated Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zones found within th e City. The Project site is not located within an area for which the California Geologic Survey has published an Alquist- Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone report. As such, the potential for fault rupture through the site is considered to be low. Consequently, Project impacts related to rupture of a known earthquake fault as delineated on the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Map would not be significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. ii. Strong seismic ground shaking?
Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, the site is situated in a seismically active area and near several seismically active faults that could generate ground shaking in Compton. T he Puente Hills and Newport Inglewood Connected faults are the closest know n active faults and are located approximately

2.93 and 3.06 miles from the site, respectively. As required by the CBC, geotechnical and soils studies are required prior to Project grading. Project construction must then comply with the requirements of the approved geotechnical report and CBC. Compliance with these measures would mitigate potential adverse impacts from strong seismic ground shaking. Consequently, Project impacts related to rupture of a known earthquake fault would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

City of Compton 5.0-27 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
iii. Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction? Less than Significant Impact. The seismically induced ground failure risk in Compton is liquefaction.

Liquefaction occurs when areas that have loose, fine-grained, sandy soils are disturbed by high-intensity ground shaking, which allows the shallow groundwater to rise to the surface and mix with the soil. When this happens, structures often sink or become severely damaged as the land they are built on becomes soft and unstable. Liquefaction hazards are often found in areas where ground water depth is 40 feet or less.
27 Historical high ground water in Compton ranges from twenty feet west of the Compton Creek, to eight feet near Compton College north to the boundaries of the City. Compton’s soil is part of alluvial fan deposits in the region which form when a fast -flowing stream flattens, slows, and spreads out. Because historical ground-water levels in the City are within 40 feet of the surface where there is the presence of loose, sandy soils, these deposits are susceptible to liquefaction. The site is located within a liquefaction hazard zone. In addition, the depth to historic high groundwater is reported to be approximately 8 feet below grade. Based on the results of the liquefaction analysis (assumed high water of 8 feet), it was estimated that ground settlement resulting from the design -level earthquake would be about 1.94 inches. Project construction must comply with the requirements of the approved geotechnical report and CBC. The Project is designed with a mat foundation system, which would alleviate any adverse ef fects from soil subsidence or liquefaction and reduce potential adverse impacts.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. iv. Landslides?
Less than Significant Impact. Landslides are the downslope movement of geologic materials that occur when the underlying geological support on a hillside can no longer maintain the load of material above it, causing a slope failure. The term landslide also commonly refers to a falling, sliding, or flowing mass of soil, rocks, water, and debris that may include mudslides and debris flows. T he risks associated with landslides occur when buildings or structures are placed on slopes.

Landslides occur in areas of slope and are one of the hazards left behind by an earthquake . According to the Geotechnical Report, the Project site is safe against geotechnical hazards such as landslides .

Consequently, Project impacts related to landslides would not be significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

b. Would the project result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? Less than Significant Impact. Erosion is the movement of rock fragments and soil from one place to another. Precipitation, running water, waves, and wind are all agents of erosion. Significant erosion typically occurs on steep slopes where storm water and high winds can carry topsoil down hillsides.

Topsoil is generally defined as the upper, outermost layer of soil, usually the top 5–10 inches with a high concentration of organic matte r and microorganisms. The Project site was previously developed with seven structures and has no vegetation. The Project would demolish the structures and construct one self- storage facility, and cover the site with paving and landscaping. Consequently, th e potential Project impacts relative to soil erosion or loss of topsoil would not be significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. c. Would the project be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the Project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction, or collapse?
Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, much of the City, including the Project site is in an area susceptible to liquefaction. Project construction must comply with the requirements of the approved geotechnical report and CBC. Compliance with these measures would reduce pote ntial adverse impacts from potential unstable soils or liquefaction areas. Consequently, Project impacts related to unstable soils, including liquefaction or collapse liquefaction are less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. Would the project be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18 1 -B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial direct or indirect risks to life or property?
Less than Significant Impact. Expansive soils contain significant amounts of clay particles that have the ability to give up water (shrink) or take on water (swell). When these soils swell, the change in volume can exert pressures that are placed on them, and structural distress and damage to buildings could occur. Since the Project is in an area that is susceptible to liquefaction, the Project would be required to adhere to the California Building Code, which contains provisions for soil preparation to minimize hazards from soil expansion. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

e. Would the project have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater?
No Impact. Development of the proposed Project would not require the installation of a septic tank or alternative wastewater disposal system. Therefore, no impacts would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. f. Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature?
Less than Significant Impact. According to State CEQA Guidelines , projects subject to CEQA must determine whether the project would “directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource .” The Project site is located within an urbanized area of Compton and the site and surrounding area have been previously graded and developed. Any near-surface paleontological resources that may have existed at one time have likely been disturbed and/or destroyed by prior development activities. The existing condition of the site is generally flat, and the Project would be limited excavation as needed to re move structures present on the Project site and install the proposed mat foundation and utility connections .

Consequently, the Project would not destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature.

GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS – Would the project:
a. Generate greenhouse gas emissions,

environment?

b. Conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or
regulation adopted for the purpose of
reducing the emissions of greenhouse
gases?

Discussion
a. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment?
Less Than Significant Impact. Construction activity impacts are relatively short in duration, and they contribute a relatively small portion of the total lifetime greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of a project. In addition, GHG emissions -reduction measures for construction equipment are relatively limited. 28 Therefore, in its Draft Guidance Document – Interim CEQA Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Significance Thresholds, 29 the SCAQMD recommends that construction emissions be amortized over a 30-year project lifetime so that GHG reduction measures would address construction GHG emissions as part of the operational GHG reduction strategies. That method is used in this analysis.

The forecasti ng of construction -related GHG emissions requires assumptions regarding the timing of construction as the emission factors for some of the Project’s construction-related GHG emission sources decline over time. As shown in Table 5.8 -1: Construction GHG Emis sions, total construction emissions would be 376 MTCO2e. One-time, short-term emissions are converted to average annual emissions by amortizing them over the service life of the Project. Moreover, when amortized over an average 30-year Project lifetime, average annual construction emissions from the Project would be 13 MTCO2e per year.

Operation of the Project has the potential to generate GHG emissions through vehicle trips traveling to and from the Project site. In addition, emissions would result from area sources on site, such as natural gas combustion, landscaping equipment, and use of consumer products. Emissions from mobile and area sources and indirect emissions from energy and water use, wastewater, as well as waste management would occur every year after full development of the uses allowed by the Project. Operational Project emissions from area sources, energy sources, mobile sources, solid waste, and water and wastewater conveyance are shown in Table 5.8-2: Operational GHG Emissions below. As shown in Table 5.8-2, average annual net operational emissions from the proposed Project would be 287 MTCO2e per year.

In the absence of any adopted, numeric threshold, this analysis evaluates the significance of the Project’s potential GHG emissions consistent with State CEQA Guidelines section 15064.4(b)(2). As such, a significant impact would occur if the proposed Project conflicts with the applicable policies and/or regulations outlined in SCAG’s 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and the City’s General Plan. As shown under response to Question 5.8(b) , below, the Project would not conflict with any of the applicable policies and/or regulations outlined in these plans. As such, impacts related to direct and indirect emissions of greenhouse gas emissions would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: N o Mitigation Measures are required.

b. Conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases?
Less Than Significant Impact. There are no federal, State, or local quantitative adopted thresholds of significance for addressing a project’s GHG emissions. In the absence of any adopted, numeric threshold, this analysis evaluates the significance of a project by considering whether the Project conflicts with applicable regulations or requirements adopted to implement a Statewide, regional, or local plan for the reduction of mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. The following analysis describes the extent the Project complies with the regulations and policies outlined in SCAG’s 2020 -2045 RTP/SCS and the City’s General Plan.

Consistency with SCAG’s 2020-2045 RTP/SCS
The 2020 -2045 RTP/SCS identifies strategies and investments to support development in areas with a range of transportation choices to reduce GHG emissions through decreasing vehicle miles traveled (VMT).

As discussed in Section 5.17: Transportation and Traffic, the Project is only anticipated to generate 29 net additional average daily trips as compared to the existing uses. These trips would be distributed throughout the day resulting in fewer am peak-hour trips and just 1 additional pm peak-hour trip compared to existing conditions. As such, the Project would not generate substantial additional vehicle trips. The proposed use would draw customers from within the surrounding community and thus would not induce substantial regional vehicle travel. As such , the Project would not conflict with SCAG’s 2020 - 2045 RTP/SCS.

Consistency with General Plan
The City’s General Plan does not include specific goals related to GHG emissions. However, the Genera l Plan includes goals to reduce air quality emissions and consumption of energy resources which would also result in reductions in GHG emissions. As discussed previously, the Project would not generate substantial additional vehicle trips. Furthermore, the Project is committed to meeting the requirements of the CALGreen Code by incorporating strategies such as low-flow toilets, low-flow faucets and other energy and resource conservation measures. The Project would comply with applicable energy, water, and w aste efficiency measures specified in the Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards and CALGreen standards.

As such, the Project would not conflict with the City’s General Plan.

For the reasons described above, the Project would be consistent with State-applicable plans, policies, and regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions, impacts would not be considered significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

Discussion
The conclusions of this section are based on the Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment that is included as an Appendix D to this IS.
a. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? Less than Significant Impact. The Project is a proposed self -storage facility which does not routinely transport, use or d ispose of hazardous materials that could pose a hazard to the public. Furthermore, compliance with federal, State, and local laws and regulations relating to transport, storage, disposal, and sale of hazardous materials would minimize any potential for creating a significant hazard to the public.

No hazardous materials other than modest amounts of cleaning supplies and solvents used for housekeeping and janitorial purposes would routinely be transported to the Project site. It is expected that all potentially hazardous materials would be contained, stored, and used in accordance with manufacturers’ instructions and handled in compliance with applicable standards and regulations.

Therefore, the proposed Project would not create a significant hazard to the pub lic or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials and impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. b. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment?
Less than Significant Impact. A Project would normally have a significant impact from hazards and hazardous materials if: (a) the project involved a risk of accidental explosion or release of hazardous substances (including, but not limited to oil, pesticides, chemicals, or radiation); or (b) the project is involved in the creation of any health hazard or potential health hazard. The Project is a proposed self- storage facility which does not involve reasonably foreseeable use or release of hazardous materials that could pose a hazard to the public.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

Final IS/MND April 2022
c. Emit hazar dous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one -quarter mile of an existing or proposed school?
Less than Significant Impact. The Ralph J Bunche Middle School is within one-quarter mile of the Project site. However, the Project is a proposed self -storage facility which does not emit or handle acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste. Public Storage facilities, though typically classified with industrial uses for zoning purposes, are not designed to contain activities that emit exhaust, smoke, or other hazardous substances. In addition, t enants sign an agreement not to store hazardous materials, substances, or waste. As such, impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? Less than Significant Impact. The Environmental Phase I Assessment conducted for the Project site did not identify the Project site as being listed as a hazardous materials site pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5. This finding is supported by the State of California Department of Toxic Substances Envirostar website.30 Consequently, the Project would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area?
No Impact. The closest airport to the Project site is Compton/Woodley Airport which is approximately

3.4 miles southwest. The Compton/Woodley Airport is part of the Los Angeles County airport land use plan (ALUP). The Project site is located outside the area of influence and outside the runway protection zone. No impacts would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? No Impact. The Project is not within the vicinity of a private airstrip. The Project is also not a residential development and, currently, no people reside in the Project area as residents. Therefore, no impact would occur to people residing in or working in the Project area.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. g. Impair implementat ion of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
Less than Significant Impact. The Project site has multiple driveways on both Alameda and Weber. Access to the site will be from one driveway on E. Weber Avenue and one driveway on N. Alameda St. The remaining existing driveways on both streets will be removed. Only one driveway on each street will access the site, improving traffic safety by eliminating the additional existing driveways. The Project would not result in inadequate emergency access because the facilities would not alter existing roadway alignments nor does the operation take place in existing roadways. Therefore, operation -related impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? Less than Significant Impact. The Project site is neither within nor adjacent to a designated wildland area and would not, therefore, be exposed to the potential for wildland fire. The Compton Fire Department provides fire protection to the City and would respond to fire and/or emergency situations occurring in the project area, including the subject site. Consequently, the Project would not expose people or structure to a significant risk from wildland fires. Impacts would be less than significant.

Discussion
The conclusions of this section are based on the Preliminary Hydrology Report and Preliminary Low Impact Development Report that are included as an Appendix E to this IS. a. Would the project violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or groundwater quality?
Less than Significant Impact. A project would have a potentially significant impact on surface water quality if discharges associated with the project would create pollution, contamination, or nuisance as defined in

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-38 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
Section 13050 of the California Water Co de (CWC) or that cause regulatory standards to be violated, as defined in the applicable National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES_ stormwater permit or Water Quality Control Plan for the receiving body of water. A significant impact may occur if a project would discharge water which does not meet the quality standards of agencies which regulate surface water quality and water discharge into stormwater drainage systems. Significant impacts would also occur if a project does not comply with all applicable regulations with regard to surface water quality as governed by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) through its nine Regional Boards. Stormwater runoff from construction sites is regulated by the General Construction Storm Water Permit (Water Quality Order 99-08-DWQ) issued by the SWQCB. This permit applies to traditional construction projects and linear underground projects.

Construction activities would be required to comply with the General Construction Storm Water Permit and woul d ensure that activities would not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements. BMPs would be implemented prior to a storm event, including waste management (e.g., stockpile management, sanitary management, spill prevention and cont rol) and temporary sediment controls (e.g., silt fencing), to prevent prohibited discharges and to restrict sediment laden runoff.

Accordingly, construction impacts would be less than significant following these requirements. b.

Would the project substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede substantial groundwater management of the basin?

No Impact. The Project site was previously developed and is largely covered by buildi ng and paving.

Similarly, the surrounding area is largely developed. As discussed above, the Project would decrease the amount of impervious surface over existing conditions and would improve groundwater recharge conditions. Groundwater is a primary water supply for the City, followed by Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) supplies. The Project does not include installation of new groundwater wells or use of groundwater from existing wells. Therefore, development of the Project would not result in a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the groundwater table. Consequently, the Project would not substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere with groundwater recharge. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

c. Would the project substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would:
i. result in substantial erosion or siltation on or off site; No Impact. As discussed above, the Project site and surrounding area are largely developed and with mostly impervious surfaces. The existing site condition drains easterly toward a public storm drain along N. Alameda Street. The Project’s proposed stormwater collection and treatment system would adequately control the flow and quality of runoff. Consequently, no Project impacts would occur relative to substantial alteration of the existing drainage pattern of the site or area or substantial erosion.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. ii. substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or off-site;
No Impact. As discussed above, the Project proposed stormwater collection and treatment system would adequately control the flow and quality of runoff. Consequently, the Project would not increase the rate of surface runoff in a manner that would result in any flooding.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. iii. create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff;
No Impact. As discussed above, the Project would retain the site flow and filter the runoff water in compliance with the Preliminary LID Plan. Consequently, the Project would not exceed capacity of existing stormwater drainage systems or add polluted runoff.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. iv. impede or redirect flood flows?
No Impact. The Project would retain the existing northly drainage flow of the site. Post development, as discussed above, the Project would retain and filter the drainage flow and then convey primary overflow

to the existing County storm drain. Consequently, the Project would not impede or redirect flood flows or exceed capacity of existing stormwater drainage systems or add polluted runoff.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. In flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zones, would the project risk release of pollutants due to project inundation?
Less than Significant Impact. Tsunamis are large-scale sea waves produced from tectonic activities along the ocean floor. Seiches are freestanding or oscillatory waves associated with large enclosed or semi- enclosed bodies of water. The General Plan Public Safety Element further notes that the City as a whole is in areas of minimal flood risk.

A tsunami is a tidal wave or sea wave caused by seismic activity. Compton is located inland approximately 20 miles from the Pacific Ocean and is not subject to tsunamis. A seiche involves the oscillation of a body of water in an enclosed basin, such as a reservoir, storage tank, or lake. The Whittier Narrows Dam is 19 miles upstream from the Project site and the dam’s failure would result in flood waters reaching Compton in approximately 15 hours with a depth of four feet. The Hansen Dam is 30 miles upstream from Compton, and this dam’s failure would reach Compton within twenty hours with a depth of one foot. The General Plan Public Safety Element does not identify inundation as a potential risk within the City.

As discussed above, the Project proposed stormwater collection and treatment system would adequately control the flow and quality of runoff. Consequently, the Project would not result in risk of pollutant release during flood hazard, tsunami or seiche. Impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. e. Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable groundwater management plan? Less than Significant Impact. Under the California Water Code, the State of California is divided into nine regional water quality control boards (RWQCBs), which govern the implementation and enforcement of the California Water Code and the Clean Water Act. As previously stated, the Project site is located within Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board ( LARWQCB)’s region. The LARWQCB Water Quality Control Plan: Los Angeles Region Basin Plan for the Coastal Watersheds of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties, September 11, 2014, (Basin Plan) is designed to preserve and enhance water quality and protect the beneficial uses of all regional waters. Specifically, the Basin Plan (i) designates beneficial uses for surface and ground waters, (ii) sets narrative and numerical objectives that must be attained or maintained to protect the designated beneficial uses and conform to the State's antidegradation policy, and (iii)

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis

describes implementation programs to protect all waters in the Region. In addition, the Basin Plan incorporates all applicable State and Regional Board plans and policies and other pertinent water quality policies and regulations.

Under the NPDES permit enforced by the LARWQCB, all existing and future municipal and industrial discharges to surfa ce waters within the City are subject to applicable local, State and/or federal regulations. The Project would comply with all provisions of the NPDES program and other applicable waste discharge requirements (WDRs), as enforced by the LARWQCB.

Discussion
a. Physically divide an established community?
No Impact. A significant impact may occur if the project would be sufficiently large or configured in such a way so as to create a physical barrier within an established community. A physical division of an established community is caused by an impediment to through travel or a physical barrier, such as a new freeway with limited access between neighborhoods on either side of the freeway, or major street closures. The Project would not alter the existing street network. The Project would replace existing buildings with a new building. As such no new physical barrier would be created. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Conflict with applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to, the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect?

corresponding use.

Land Use Goal 2. The City shall designate neighborhoods that will be targeted for the development of pedestrian - friendly residential and commercial districts.

The Project would create a more pedestrian friendly
streetscape through the placement of landscaping.

Land Use Goal 3. The City shall focus industrial
development in the southern, westernmost, and north-
central (Alameda Corridor) portions of the City’s planning area as identified on the Land Use Policy Map, to minimize industrial/residential land use conflicts.

The Project would replace existing industrial uses in
the Alameda Corridor in a location that is not
adjacent to any residential uses.

Land Use Goal 4. The City will continue to promote quality commercial development in the City.

The Project would be designed in accordance with
the highest quality standards of Public Storage.

Land Use Goal 5. The City will work to rehabilitate and conserve the existing neighborhoods in the City while
evaluating opportunities for new residential
development.

The P roject would replace existing commercial
industrial uses separated from existing residential
neighborhoods.

Land Use Goal 6. The City will preserve and enhance the City's historic buildings, streets, and districts.

The Project is not located near any hist oric building, street or district.

As indicated, the Project would not conflict with the land use goals of the City. As such, impacts would be less than significant.

Discussion
a. Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of future value to the region and the residents of the State? No Impact. The Project site is located in an area classified by the California Geological Survey (CGS) as Mineral Resource Zone-1 (MRZ-1). This designation indicates that there is little likelihood that significant mineral resources are present in the area (Department of Conservatio n 1982). Consequently, Project impacts relative to mineral resources will not be significant. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan, or other land use plan?
No Impact. As discussed above, there are limited mineral resources within the City. No identified mineral resources occur on or near the Project site . Consequently, the Project would not result in the loss of a locally important mineral resource recovery site.

Generation of 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?
Less than Significant. A significant impact could occur if a project were to generate excessive noise that would cause the ambient noise environment to exceed noise level standards set forth in the City’s General Plan Noise Element and the noise section of the Compton Municipal Code.

Construction
Construction of the Project would require the use of equipment with the potential to generate noise above ambient noise levels. Noise levels would vary based on the amount and type of equipment being used, and the location of each activity. Construction activities that would occur during the construction phases (demolition, building construction, architectural coating, and paving) would generate both steady -state and episodic noise that would be heard both on and off the Project site.

Noise from Project construction activities would be affected by the amount of construction equipment, the location of this equipment, the timing and duration of construction activities, and the relative distance

City of Compton 5.0-46 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
to noise -sensitive receptors. Construction activities that would occur during the construction phases would generate both steady-state and episodic noise that would be heard both on and off the Project site.

Each phase involves the use of different types of construction equipment and, therefore, has its own distinct noise characteristics. The Project would be constructed using typical construction techniques; no blasting or impact pile driving would be required.

To characterize construction-period noise levels, the average (hourly Leq) noise level associated with each construction stage was calculated based on the quantity, type, and usage factors for each type of equipment that would be used during each construction stage. These noise levels are typically associated with multiple pieces of equipment operating simultaneously.

Certain land uses are particularly sensitive to noise, including residences, schools, hospitals, rest homes, long-term medical and mental care facilities, and parks and recreation areas. The vicinity of the Project is predominantly composed of commercial and industrial uses. In this case, there are schools and residential neighborhood to the west of Alameda Stre et. F orecasts of construction noise levels from on -site construction were generated for the nearest sensitive uses to the Project site. Average noise levels during construction were determined to reach a maximum increase of 1.7 dBA above the significance threshold without implementation of noise reduction measures. This calculation does not account for the noise attenuating effect of existing physical obstructions such as buildings between the site and the receptors.

The proposed Project would implement common construction best management practices (BMP’s) such as the use of optimal muffler systems for all equipment which would reduce construction noise levels by approximately 10 dB or more. Moreover, the Project would comply with Section 7 -12.22 of the CMC by ensuring that the operation of sound-amplifying equipment would only occur between the hours of 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM on weekdays and Saturday. Compliance with the above practices would ensure construction noise levels would be below the significance threshold; thus, construction noise levels would not be considered significant.

Construction of the Project would require worker, haul, and vendor truck trips to and from the site to work on the site, export demolition debris, and deliver supplies to the site. Trucks traveling to and from the Project site would be required to travel a long a haul route approved by the City. At the maximum approximately 153 total hauling trips would take place during the demolition phase, totaling to approximately 15 haul truck trips per workday. Haul truck traffic would take the most direct route to the freeway ramp, which includes the freeway ramp.

Noise associated with construction trips were estimated using the Caltrans FHWA Traffic Noise Model based on the maximum number of worker and hauling trips in a day. Project haul truck trips which includes

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-47 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
medium- and heavy-duty trucks would generate noise levels of approximately 43.6 dBA and 50.6 dBA, respectively, measured at the nearest sensitive receptors along the haul route. As such, off -site construction noise impacts would not be considered significant.

Operation
The project would introduce various stationary noise sources, including heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, which would be located either on the roof, the side of a structure, or on the ground.

All project mechanical equipment would be required to be designed with appropriate noise -control devices—such as sound attenuators, acoustics louvers, or sound screens/parapet walls —to comply with noise-limitation requirements provided in section 7 -12.11 of the CMC , which prohibits equip ment from causing more than a 5 db increase in the ambient noise level. Therefore, operation of mechanical equipment on the project building would not exceed the city’s threshold of significance.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. b. Generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels?
Less than Significant Impact. Vibration is commonly defined as noise propagating through a solid medium such as the ground. an oscillatory motion through a solid medium in which the motion’s amplitude can be described in terms of displacement, velocity, or acceleration. Most perceptible indoor vibration is caused by sources within buildings such as the operation of mechanical equipment, the movement of people, or the slamming of doors. Typical outdoor sources of perceptible ground -borne vibration are construction equipment, steel-wheeled trains, and traffic on rough roads. If a roadway is smooth, the ground -borne vibration from traffic is barely perceptible. The type of activity associate with the operation of the Project would not generate noticeable vibration. Potential construction vibration associated with construction was forecasted based on expected equipment use.
31 Ground-borne vibration rapidly attenuates with
distance. Due to the distance of the Project from sensitive receptors, as well as intervening structures and roadways, on -site construction vibration would not result in a n exposure to significant vibration at surrounding uses.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

c. For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? No Impact. The Project site is not within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan. The closest airport to the Pr oject site is the Compton/Woodley Airport located more than 2 miles to the southwest of the Project site. Therefore, the Project is not within two miles of a public airport or public use airport that would expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels.

Consequently, no impacts associated with noise would result from the Project.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

Discussion
a. Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? No Impact. The Project includes a self-storage building with new site improvements. There is no residential development proposed as part of the Project. The self-storage building would only have 1 -2 employees per shift and would not affect the jobs/housing ratio of the City; therefore, it would not induce substantial population growth directly or indirectly.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere?
No Impact. The Project site is currently has seven buildings and miscellaneous structures which are industrial/commercial in nature with no existing residential uses on- site. It would be redeveloped into a three-story self-storage building. Consequently, the Project would not displace existing people or housing.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required.

Discussion
Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services:
a. Fire Protection?
No Impact. Fire protection and other related services are provided by the Compton Fire Department.

There are four fire stations in the City: Station Number 1 (Fire Headquarters) is located at 201 South Acacia Avenue; Station Number 2 is located at 1320 East Palmer Street; Station Number 3 is located at 1133 Rosecrans Avenue; and Station Number 4 is located at 950 West Walnut Street. Station Number 3 is located closest to the Project site, approximately 3 miles southwest.

Currently, the Compton Fire Department has 84 sworn employees and five civilian employees. Its resources include four fire stations and nine front-line emergency vehicles comprised of four fire engines, one truck, two paramedic squads, and two basic life support transport ambulances. 32 Its core services include fire and rescue emergency responses, emergency medical services, fire prevention, hazardous materials, and emergency preparedness and public education.

The Compton Fire Department sets its response time goals based on the National Fire Protection Association and national averages, which is between five and seven minutes. Currently, the Compton Fire

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-51 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
Department’s response times are slightly above national averages due to a recent decrease in staffing and increase in new housing and warehouse developments in the City.33 The Project would develop a three- story self-storage that would not increase the population of the City.

The new building would be constructed to current CBC and Fire Code standards, including the installation of fire protection systems and automatic sprinkler systems. The proposed Project will only have 1 -2 employees, unlikely causing more calls for fire services, and therefore would not result in a substantial increase in demands on fire services. Consequently, there would be no impacts relative to new or physically altered fire protection facilities due to the implementation of the Project.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Police Protection?
No Impact. Police protection services for the City are provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LACSD) under contract with the City. The local LACSD office is the Compton Station and located at 301 South Willowbrook Avenue, approximately 2 miles south of the Project site.

The Project would include a three-story self-storage and is not expected to create increased demands for police services. The proposed Project will only have 1-2 employees, unlikely causing more calls for police services. Consequently, there would be no impacts relative to new or physically altered police protection facilities.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. c. Schools?
No Impact. The Project does not include any school facilities. As mentioned, the proposed Project will only have 1-2 employees, will require very little in the way of public services, and would create no school impacts. Therefore, no impacts to school facilities would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. d. Parks?
No Impact. The Project site does not include a park or any recreational facility such as a trail.

Implementation of the Project would not impact parks within the vicinity of the Project, as construction and operation would occur within the Project site. As such, no impacts to parks would occur.

No Impact. The Project would not result in an increased use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities due to the nature of the Project. The self -storage facility would not encourage and/or change the number of visitors to nearby rec reational areas. Therefore, no impacts would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required. b. Include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical eff ect on the environment?
No Impact. The implementation of the proposed Project would not directly or indirectly result in growth in the proposed Project area, and therefore would not require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities. Upon completion, the proposed Project would provide a self-storage facility to the community. Therefore, no growth-related impacts to recreational resources would occur.

Less than Significant Impact. The City’s transportation policies include34:
• Provide a street system that meets current and future City needs and that facilitates the safe and efficient movement of people and goods throughout Compton. • Provide Compton residents and businesspeople with convenient and viable access to public transportation.
• Provide adequate, properly designed off-street parking facilities for all types of development. • Encourage bicycle and pedestrian travel as an alternative to motorized transportation.

The Project would not alter the street system or affect any public transportation or bicycle infrastructure; would improve the sidewalk with landscaping; and would provide adequate parking for the proposed use.

As such, the Project would not conflict with the City’s program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system and impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

b. Would the project conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivisions (b)?
Less than Significant Impact. In response to Senate Bill (SB) 743, the C alifornia Natural Resource Agency certified and adopted new State CEQA Guidelines in December 2018 which now identify VMT as the most appropriate metric to evaluate a project's transportation impact under CEQA (§ 15064.3). The City is still in the process of adopting criteria for evaluating VMT impacts under CEQA; including the preferred analysis methodology and thresholds of significance. Per Section 15064.3 (b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, a qualitative analysis is allowable if existing models or methods are not available to estimate the vehicle miles traveled for the particular project being considered.

Based on a trip generation analysis prepared for the Project by the firm LSA and reviewed by the City, the Project is only anticipated to generate 29 net additional average daily trips as compared to the existing uses. These trips would be distributed throughout the day resulting in fewer am peak-hour trips and just 1 additional pm peak-hour trip compared to existing conditions. As such, the Project would not generate substantial additional trips. The proposed use would draw customers from within the surrounding community and thus would not induce substantial regional vehicle travel. As such, the Project’s impact on regional VMT can be considered less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. c. Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
No Impact. The Project does not include alterations in the public right of way other than the removal of existing driveways. The proposed driveways would be designed to City standards. Therefore, no impact with respect to hazardous design features would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. Result in inadequate emergency access?
Less than Significant Impact. The Project would feature driveways on both Alameda and Weber . The proposed access would be designed to comply with existing safety regulations and would not alter existing roadway alignments. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.

In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resource Code Section 5024.1, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the r esource to a California Native American tribe.

Less than Significant Impact with Mitigation Incorporated. PRC §21080.3.1 establishes a formal process for Lead Agencies to consult with California Native American Tribes to identify potential significant impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources, as defined in PRC §21074. In compliance with the Code, the City sent notices to Native American tribes that are known to be traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Project Area and have requested to be notified of projects. The Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians (“the Tribe”) responded to the notice , and requested a consultation with the City to discuss the Project and the surrounding location in further detail. Consultation was held on December 9, 2021. The City and the Tribe reviewed the known history of the area as well as information about Tribal Cultural Resources uncovered at other locations in the area. Based on the approximate location of historic village s, trade routes and streams, the City has determined that there is potential for subsurface Tribal Cultural Resources to be unearthed during construction. Therefore, to ensure that this potential impact would be less than significant, mitigation measures have been included below.

MM-TCR-1: Retain a Native American Monitor Prior to Commencement of Ground-Disturbing Activities
A. The project applicant/lead agency shall retain a Native American Monitor from or approved by the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation. The monitor shall be retained prior to the commencement of any “ground-disturbing activity” for the subject project at all project locations (i.e., both on-site and any off-site locations that are included in the project description/definition and/or required in connection with the project, such as public improvement work). “Ground-disturbing activity” shall include, but is not limited to, demolition, pavement removal, potholing, auguring, grubbing, tree removal, boring, grading, excavation, drilling, and trenching.

B. A copy of the executed monitoring agreement shall be submitted to the lead agency prior to the earlier of the commencement of any ground -disturbing activity, or the issuance of any permit necessary to commence a ground - disturbing activity.

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-58 Alameda Street Compton Project
Final IS/MND April 2022
C. The monitor will complete daily monitoring logs that will provide descriptions of the relevant ground -disturbing activities, the type of construction activities performed, locations of ground-disturbing activities, soil types, cultural- related materials, and any othe r facts, conditions, materials, or discoveries of significance to the Tribe. Monitor logs will identify and describe any discovered TCRs, including but not limited to, Native American cultural and historical artifacts, remains, places of significance, etc. , (collectively, tribal cultural resources, or “TCR”), as well as any discovered Native American (ancestral) human remains and burial goods. Copies of monitor logs will be provided to the project applicant/lead agency upon written request to the Tribe.

D. On-site tribal monitoring shall conclude upon the latter of the following (1) written confirmation to the Kizh from a designated point of contact for the project applicant/lead agency that all ground -disturbing activities and phases that may involve ground-disturbing activities on the project site or in connection with the project are complete; or (2) a determination and written notification by the Kizh to the project applicant/lead agency that no future, planned construction activity and/or development/construction phase at the project site possesses the potential to impact Kizh TCRs.

E. Upon discovery of any TCRs, all construction activities in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall cease (i.e., not less than the surrounding 50 feet) and shall not resume until the discovered TCR has been fully assessed by the Kizh monitor and/or Kizh archaeologist. The Kizh will recover and retain all discovered TCRs in the form and/or manner the Tribe deems appropriate, in the Tribe’s sole discretion, and for an y purpose the Tribe deems appropriate, including for educational, cultural and/or historic purposes.

MM TCR-2: Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains and Associated Funerary Objects A. Native American human remains are defined in PRC 5097.98 (d)(1) as an inhumation or cremation, and in any state of decomposition or skeletal completeness. Funerary objects, called associated grave goods in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, are also to be treated according to this statute.

B. If Native American human remains and/or grave goods discovered or recognized on the project site, then all construction activities shall immediately cease.

Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 dictates that any discoveries of human skeletal material shall be immediately reported to the County Coroner and all ground-disturbing activities shall immediately halt and shall remain halted until the coroner has determined the nature of the remains. If the coroner recognizes

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-59 Alameda Street Compton Project

the human remains to be those of a Native American or has re ason to believe they are Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission, and Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 shall be followed.

C. Human remains and grave/burial goods shall be treate d alike per California Public Resources Code section 5097.98(d)(1) and (2).

D. Construction activities may resume in other parts of the project site at a minimum of 200 feet away from discovered human remains and/or burial goods, if the Kizh determines in its sole discretion that resuming construction activities at that distance is acceptable and provides the project manager express consent of that determination (along with any other mitigation measures the Kizh monitor and/or archaeologist deems necessar y). (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f).)
E. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner of treatment for discovered human remains and/or burial goods. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American in origin (non -TCR) shall be curated at a public, non-profit institution with a research interest in the materials, such as the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County or the Fowler Museum, if such an institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accept s the archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical society in the area for educational purposes.

F. Any discovery of human remains/burial goods shall be kept confidential to prevent further disturbance.

MM TCR-3: Procedures for Burials and Funerary Remains:

A. As the Most Likely Descendant (“MLD”), the Koo -nas-gna Burial Policy shall be implemented. To the Tribe, the term “human remains” encompasses more than human bones. In ancient as well as historic times, Tribal Traditions included, but were not limited to, the preparation of the soil for burial, the burial of funerary objects with the deceased, and the ceremonial burning of human remains.

B. If the discovery of human remains includes four or more burials, the disco very location shall be treated as a cemetery and a separate treatment plan shall be created.

C. The prepared soil and cremation soils are to be treated in the same manner as bone fragments that remain intact. Associated funerary objects are objects that, as part of the death rite or ceremony of a culture, are reasonably believed to

5.0 Environmental Checklist Analysis
City of Compton 5.0-60 Alameda Street Compton Project

have been placed with individual human remains either at the time of death or later; other items made exclusively for burial purposes or to contain human remains can also be co nsidered as associated funerary objects. Cremations will either be removed in bulk or by means as necessary to ensure complete recovery of all sacred materials.

D. In the case where discovered human remains cannot be fully documented and recovered on the same day, the remains will be covered with muslin cloth and a steel plate that can be moved by heavy equipment placed over the excavation opening to protect the remains. If this type of steel plate is not available, a 24 - hour guard should be posted outside of working hours. The Tribe will make every effort to recommend diverting the project and keeping the remains in situ and protected. If the project cannot be diverted, it may be determined that burials will be removed.

E. In the event preservation in place is not possible despite good faith efforts by the project applicant/developer and/or landowner, before ground -disturbing activities may resume on the project site, the landowner shall arrange a designated site location within the footprint of the proj ect for the respectful reburial of the human remains and/or ceremonial objects.

F. Each occurrence of human remains and associated funerary objects will be stored using opaque cloth bags. All human remains, funerary objects, sacred objects and objects of cultural patrimony will be removed to a secure container on site if possible. These items should be retained and reburied within six months of recovery. The site of reburial/repatriation shall be on the project site but at a location agreed upon between the Tribe and the landowner at a site to be protected in perpetuity. There shall be no publicity regarding any cultural materials recovered.

G. The Tribe will work closely with the project’s qualified archaeologist to ensure that the excavation is treated carefully, ethically and respectfully. If data recovery is approved by the Tribe, documentation shall be prepared and shall include (at a minimum) detailed descriptive notes and sketches. All data recovery data recovery-related forms of documentation shall be approved in advance by the Tribe. If any data recovery is performed, once comple te, a final report shall be submitted to the Tribe and the NAHC. The Tribe does NOT authorize any scientific study or the utilization of any invasive and/or destructive diagnostics on human remains.

Water supply to the Project site is provided by the City Water Utility Division (CWUD), which obtains its water from groundwater pumped via local municipal wells in the adjudicated Central Groundwater Basin (Central Basin), and from imported surface water contracted by the City through the MWD. The CWUD delivers water services to more than 15,000 service connections through approximately 156 miles of water mains.
35 The distribution system consists of a pipeline system, five water tanks with a total storage capacity of 12.75 million gallons, one pressure zone, and nine ground water wells.

The Project site contains several existing commercial and industrial uses , each with their own restroom and sink facilities. The Project would provide only two single occupancy restroom facilities for employees only, of which there would be at most two during each shift, and would utilize water for irrigation of landscaping. As such, redevelopment of the site with the proposed Project would not result in a net increase in water demand associated with the site. Consequentl y, there would be no potential adverse impacts on the water supplies.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. c. Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate ca pacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments?
No Impact. Wastewater collection and treatment in the City is provided by the Los Angeles County Sanitation District (LACSD). As a public agency created und er State law to manage wastewater and solid waste on a regional scale, LACSD consists of 24 independent special districts across the County of Los Angeles. Compton is located primarily in LACSD Districts No. 1 and No. 8, with small portions of the eastern and southeastern parts of the City in Districts No. 2 and No. 3. 36 The Project site contains several existing commercial and industrial uses. The Project would provide restroom facilities for employees only which there would be at most two during each shif t. As such,

redevelopment of the site with the proposed Project would not result in a net increase in wastewater generation associated with the site. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required. d. Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals?
Less than Significant Impact. Solid waste services in the City are provided through a contract with Republic Services. Solid waste and recycle loads are taken to Republic’s Compton Transfer Station for processing.

From the transfer station, waste loads are loaded into transfer trailers and hauled to and disposed of at Sunshine Canyon Landfill in Sylmar. 37 Other disposal facilities include the Southeast Resource Recovery Facility in Long Beach for recycling, and the El Sobrante Landfill in Corona and Puente Hills Landfill in Industry.

Construction of the Project would result in the generation of solid waste such as soils and demolished pavement and roadway components from the existing access road. Per CALGreen, 65 percent of construction and demolition waste must be diverted from landfills .38 As such, at least 65 percent of all construction and demolition debris from the site would be diverted. Additionally, CALGreen requires 100 percent of trees, stumps, rocks, and associated vegetation and soils resulting primarily from land clearing to be reused or recycled. Any hazardous wastes that are generated during demolition and construction activities would be managed and disposed of in compliance with all applicable federal, State, and local laws. The remaining 35 percent of construction and demolition materials that are not required to be recycled would either be disposed of or voluntarily recycled at a solid waste facility with available capacity.

Construction waste is typically disposed of at inert landfills, which are facilities that accept materials such as soil, concrete, asphalt, and other construction and demolition debris. Therefore, increases in solid waste during construction would be temporary and negligible during operation of the Project.

The Project site contains several existing commercial and industrial uses. Solid waste generated by the Project would be associated with the few employees per shift, of which there would be at most two during each shift. As such, redevelopment of the site with the proposed Project would not result in a net increase in solid waste associated with the site. Impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

e. Comply with federal, State, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste?
Less than Significant Impact. A significant impact may occur if a project would generate solid waste that was not disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations. The Project would be consistent with the applicable regulations associated with solid waste. Specifically, the Project would comply with the State’s construction and demolition requirements, which requires that projects recycle a minimum of 65 percent of all inert materials and 65 percent of all other materials. The Project would also comply with Assembly Bill (AB) 939, AB 341, AB 1826 waste diversion goals, as applicable, by providing clearly marked, source - sorted receptacles to facilitate recycling. Recycling services are part of the City’s solid waste program.

Typical services include collection of recyclables such as glass, metals and plastic. The City also provides contact information for e-waste and household hazardous waste. The Project includes a three-story self- storage facility that would continue to participate in recycling as part of the reuse collection program. The Project would not increase the City’s population and it would not affect the managemen t or reduction statutes or regulations related to solid waste programs. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No Mitigation Measures are required.

Discussion
a. Substantially impair an adopted emergency r esponse plan or emergency evacuation plan?
No Impact. The City is nearly entirely built out, and is near completely urbanized. The General Plan Public Safety does not identify a potential for wildfires in the City but does address the potential for stationary fires. Service by the Compton Fire Department and adequate water supply and flow are discussed by the General Plan as local tools to address potential fires. The Project would not alter or impede the public right of way and would not interfere with emergency response or evacuation plans. No impact would occur.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures required.
b. Due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildlife risks, and thereby expose project occupants to, pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire?
No Impact. Compton is relatively flat and urbanized. The General Plan Public Safety does not identify a potential for wildfires in the City. The Project would redevelop the site with new residential development built to current CBC and Fire Code standards. Consequently, the Project would not exacerbate wildfire risks. No impact would occur.

Requested Action/Project Description
Public Storage proposes to develop a 131,028 square-foot, three-story, personal self-storage facility proposed at 3010 N. Alameda Street, in the Heavy Manufacturing (M -H) zone, in Compton . The following entitlements are required to facilitate this project:

 Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21 -011 – a request to develop a building in excess of 50,000 square feet in size;
 Conditional Use Permit Case No. 21-012 – a request to develop and operate a personal self- storage facility; and
 Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 950 – Adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Please note, Variance Case No. 21-002 is no longer required for this project. Ordinance No. 2,342, which took effect in late January 2022, amended various sections of the Zoning Code but in particular changed the parking requ irements for self -storage faci lities. The proposed project complies with the new parking requirements, eliminating the need for a variance; further discussion will be provided in this staff report.
