35 Policy TE 2.3: Diversion of Automobile Trips to Alternative Modes. The City encourages investment in alternative modes of travel that will make those modes more competitive with auto travel in terms of convenience, accessibility, costs, and safety. These may include, but are not limited to, improvements in the bus transit system, the bikeway system, pedestrian circulation system, and potentially commuter rail services, if the region should determine to pursue this option.

Consistent. The proposed project would include installation of 10 bicycle parking spaces. The project site is accessible by bicycle, and the nearest transit stops are located approximately 0.6 -mile northwest, thereby providing employees with multiple alternatives to driving for transportation to and from the project site.

Policy TE 4.1: General Level of Service Standard. A traffic LOS standard C shall apply citywide to major arterials, minor arterials, and collector roadways and signalized and unsign alized intersections, except as provided in TE 4.2. The standard shall apply to daily traffic volumes and both AM and PM peak hours for intersections, and to average daily traffic volumes (ADT) for roadway segments.

Consistent. The Hollister Avenue/Kellogg Avenue intersection is forecast to operate at LOS D under cumulative plus project conditions during the PM peak hour. However, the project is required to implement a project-specific Deficiency Plan, which would be incorporated into the project as a Condition of Approval. In addition to implementation of the Deficiency Plan, the project applicant would also be required to pay all applicable development impact fees, including fees under the Goleta Transportation Improvement Program, which funds roadways imp rovements. Improvements to the Hollister Avenue/Kellogg Avenue intersection would be funded through the Goleta Transportation Improvement Program, and such improvements would improve the LOS at this intersection to at or above LOS C. Therefore, this project is consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 4.3: Deficiency Correction Plans . When the LOS for any intersection or arterial link at planned capacity falls below base year standards which are expressed in Table 7-1, the City shall require a Deficiency Plan to be prepared prior to approving any development that would further lower the LOS. The Deficiency Plan shall consider alternative transportation improvements, including alternative modes. Any improvements established in the adopted Deficienc y Plan may be provided as mitigation by new development or included in the impact fee system.

The Deficiency Plan shall be prepared by the City or at the City’s direction within 90 days of publication of a City-approved traffic report indicating degradation of service below base year standards which are expressed in Table 7-1.

Consistent. The Hollister Avenue/Kellogg Avenue intersection is forecast to operate at LOS D under cumulative plus project conditions during the PM peak hour. However, the project applicant would implement a project -specific Deficiency Plan, which would be incorporated into the project as a Condition of Approval. Additionally, the project applicant would be required to pay all applicable development impact fees, including 206

37 Policy TE 9.4: Parking within Commercial and Industrial Areas. The following standards shall apply to parking within nonresidential areas:
a. An adequate number and appropriate type of parking spaces shall be provided on site for new development or changes of use in commercial, business parks, and other industrial areas.
b. Supplemental satellite parking facilities are encouraged for large employe rs to prevent spillover parking into neighboring areas.
c. In determining the adequacy of proposed parking for new or substantially modified development, the City may consider proximity to transit facilities and the provisions of a TMP where it is demonstrated that the plan’s measures will sufficiently reduce the demand for onsite parking.
d. Conditions of approval for large nonresidential projects may include a requirement to prepare a TMP that includes monitoring of parking lot utilization and measures that will be implemented if the event that the supply of onsite parking spaces is inadequate.
e. Provision of large amounts of excess parking is discouraged, except that surplus landscaped areas may be identified and reserved for future expansion of parking areas if warranted by future conditions.
f. Compact parking spaces and 90 -degree parking stalls are discouraged in parking lots serving high -turnover uses, such as (but not limited to) retail commercial centers.

Consistent. The proposed project would include parki ng which would meet the required parking spaces provided in Article II of Chapter 35, Goleta Municipal Code, Coastal Zoning Ordinance . The project site is located in proximity to existing transit facilities and would not provide large amounts of excess par king consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 9.5: Design standards applicable to retail, commercial, business parks, and parking lots are set forth in the Visual and Historic Resources Element Subpolicies VH 4.5, 4.7, and 4.11.

Consistent. The proposed parking lot will include landscaping and pole-mounted LED lighting that would include semi -cutoff fixtures designed in accordance with City standards. The DRB provided conceptual comments regarding the landscaping that will be implemented into the final de sign. For these reasons, the project is consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 10.4: Pedestrian Facilities in New Development. Proposals for new development or substantial alterations of existing development shall be required to include pedestrian linkage s and standard frontage improvements. These improvements may include construction of sidewalks and other pedestrian paths, provision of benches, public art, informational signage, appropriate landscaping, and lighting.

38 interconnect with adjacent areas. Dedications of public access easements shall be required where appropriate.

Consistent. The proposed project would include construction of a sidewalk to provide pedestrian access between the project site and South Kellogg Avenue, would be landscaped appropriately, and would include adequate exterior lighting consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 11.4: Facilities in New Development. Bicycle facilities such as lockers, secure enclosed parking, and lighting shall be incorporated into the design of all new developments to encourage bicycle travel and facilitate and encourage bicycle commuting. Showers and changing rooms shou ld be incorporated into the design of all new developments where feasible. Transportation improvements necessitated by new development should provide onsite connections to existing and proposed bikeways.

Consistent. The proposed project would include the i nstallation of 10 bicycle parking spaces and the proposed industrial building would be adequately lit on the exterior. The project would provide an onsite connection to existing bikeways, as the access road for the project site connects to existing Class III bicycle lanes on South Kellogg Avenue.

Policy TE 13.1: Traffic Studies for Development Proposals. Future development in Goleta will cause added burdens on the transportation system. Traffic analyses and reports shall be required for development proposals which the City Engineer and Planning Director determine may have effects on the local street system , including but not limited to possible degradation of service levels, potential creation of safety hazards, potential adverse effects on local neighborhood streets, or other substantial transportation concerns. When required by the City, traffic studies shall be performed by a qualified transportation engineer under a contract with the City.

The costs of the traffic study, including costs of City staff time, shall be the responsibility of the project applicant.

Consistent. The Project included a traffic study performed by a qualified transportation engineer. The traffic study was reviewed and approved by the City Engineer or Designee and the costs associated with the review of the study has been borne by the applicant. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 13.3: Maintenance of LOS Standards. New development shall only be allowed when and where such development can be adequately (as defined by the LOS standards in Policy TE 4) served by existing and/or planned transportation facilities.

Consistent. The Hollister Avenue/Kellogg Avenue intersection is forecast to operate at LOS D under cumulative plus project conditions during the PM peak hour. However, the project applicant would implement a project -specific Deficiency Plan, which has been required as a Condition of Approval. Additionally, the project applicant would be 209

Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

39 required to pay all applicable development impact fees, including fees under the Goleta Transportation Improvement Program, which funds roadways i mprovements.

Improvements to the Hollister Avenue/Kellogg Avenue intersection established within this Deficiency Plan would be included in the impact fee system. Therefore, this project is consistent with this policy.

Policy TE 14.1: Traffic Impact Fees. The City shall adopt a citywide traffic impact fee in accordance with the requirements of Assembly Bill1600 to fund transportation improvements to mitigate the traffic impacts of new development. The impact fee study shall identify and be based on the esti mated costs of construction of all transportation system improvements needed to ensure adequate levels of service system wide. Each new development project shall be charged a fee that represents its proportionate share of potential need for and impacts on the facilities included in the fee system. The impact fee system may incorporate improvements made and fees collected by the City since its incorporation in 2002.

Consistent. The project applicant would be required to pay all applicable development impact fees, including fees under the Goleta Transportation Improvement Program, which funds roadways improvements.

7. Public Facilities Element:

Policy PF 3.4: Fire Safety in New Development. Fire safety standards, including ingress and egress, and road access, shall be met, where applicable, in new development within the city.

Consistent. The proposed project would be constructed in accordance with the requirements of the California Fire Code, which are implemented to minimize the potential for fire to occur. Additionally, the proposed project would be constructed in accordance with the Santa Barbara County Fire Department’s (SBCFD) development standards, which include requirements for egress on private driveways, fire hydrant spacing and flow rates, automatic fire sprinkler systems, and automatic alarm systems (SBCFD 2022). Adherence to State and local regulations would ensure project construction and operation would not expose people or structures to significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires. For these reasons, the project is consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 3.8: Impact Fee for Police Facilities. The City shall continue to require a development impact fee to provide revenue to assist with funding capital facilities for police services.

40 Policy PF 3.9: Safety Considerations in New Development. All proposals for new or substantially remodeled development shall be reviewed for potential demand for and impacts on safety and demand for police services. The desig n of streets and buildings should reinforce secure, safe, and crime -free environments.

Safety and crime reduction or prevention, as well as ease of policing, shall be a consideration in the siting and design of all new development within the city.

Consistent. As discussed in the Sywest Final EIR Section 4.12, Public Services, the project would not result in a substantial impact to safety or demand for police services given the nature and design of the facility. The design of the project has been with on- site safety of employees and visitors in mind through building access placement, lighting, and landscaping features.

Policy PF 4.1: Water Facilities and Services. Specific criteria, standards, and procedures, including Goleta Water District standards, shall apply to the project for water facilities and services.

Consistent. The Sywest Final EIR evaluated water service for the project. The Preliminary Water Service Determination completed by the Goleta Water District determined the project site has adequate historic water credits for its forecasted demand associated with the Project. As a condition of approval, the Project will be required to obtain a Can and Will Serve Letter from the Goleta Water District prior to project completion. For these reas ons, the Project can be found consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 4.2: Sewer Facilities and Services. Specific criteria, standards, and procedures, including Goleta Sanitary District standards, shall apply to Project sewer facilities and services.

Consistent. The Sywest Fina l EIR evaluated sewer service capacity for the Project and found adequate capacity for the forecasted demand associated with the Project.

As a condition of approval, the project will be required to obtain a Sewer Connection Permit. For these reasons, the Project can be found consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 5.7 : School Impact Fees. Where school districts have adopted development impact fees to help finance provision of facilities, the City shall provide information regarding these impact fees to developers and builders. The City shall not issue a building permit for any development subject to such fees without documentation from the applicable district that its fees have been paid. The developer or builder shall be responsible for providing documentation to the City that school impact fees have been paid.

Consistent. As discussed in the Sywest Final EIR Section 4.12, Public Services, the proposed project would be required to pay state -mandated developer fees to fund the construction of school facilities to accommodate students generated by the new employee opportunity. However, the anticipated number of employees expected to be 211

GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

41 created that would be new to the area by the new warehouse building is minimal which in term would have a minimal impact on the local schools. This project will be consistent with this policy. .

Policy PF 6.1: Referral of Development Applications. The City shall continue to circulate development applications to local utility providers for their review and comment and to ensure that they can and will provide service to individual developments.

Consistent. The Project has been circulated to all relevant local utility providers and all comments received have been incorporated into the Project’s conditions of approval. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 6.2: Undergrounding of Overhead Utilities. The City shall encourage the undergrounding of electrical power lines and other overhead utilities to the greatest extent practical.

Consistent. Underground utilities from an existing power pole are proposed under the access driveway. Other utility hardware for transformers will be screened from public view by landscaping and walled enclosures. For these reasons, the project is consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 9.3: Responsibilities of Developers. Construction permits shall not be granted until the developer provides for the installation and/or financing of needed public facilities. If adequate facilities are currently unavailable and public funds are not committed to provide such facilities, the bu rden shall be on the developer to arrange appropriate financing or provide such facilities in order to develop.

Developers shall provide or pay for the costs of generating technical information as to the impacts the proposed development will have on public facilities and services.

The City shall require new development to finance the facilities needed to support the development wherever a direct connection or nexus of benefit or impact can be demonstrated.

Consistent. As discussed in the Sywest Final EIR Section 4.12, Public Services, the project applicant would be required to pay development impact fees which would provide funding for fire protection, parks, schools, and libraries etc.

Policy PF 9.7: Essential Services for New Development. Development shall be allowed only when and where all essential utility services are adequate in accord with the service standards of their providers and only when and where such development can be adequately served by essential utilities without reducing levels of service below the level of service guidelines elsewhere. 212
Attachment 2, Exhibit B
GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

42 Consistent. The Sywest Final EIR evaluated the capacity for all essential utility services and found that the Project would not exceed available capacity. For this reason, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy PF 10.2 Development Impact Fees. The City shall adopt and maintain a development impact fee program that requires new development to pay a proportionate share of the costs of new or upgraded capital facilities attributable to new development. Impact fee programs for capital facilities shall i nclude sufficient funding for all of the following:
a. Design and engineering.
b. Environmental compliance and permitting.
c. Land acquisition and/or right-of-way acquisition.
d. Site preparation, including grading and installation of utilities, drainage, and other necessary infrastructure.
e. Construction of the public facility.
f. Parking, landscaping, and street trees, where applicable. g. Necessary off -site improvements, such as sidewalks, extensions of utilities, and others as applicable.
h. The impact fee program shall be reviewed regularly to ensure that sufficient funding will be available to construct all required facilities.

Consistent. See discussion for Policy PF 9.3. The project applicant would be required to pay all applicable development impact fees.

8. Noise Element:

Policy NE 1.1: Land Use Compatibility Standards. The City shall use the standards and criteria of Table 9 -2 to establish compatibility of land use and noise exposure. The City shall require appropriate mitigation, if feasible, or prohibit development that would subject proposed or existing land uses to noise levels that exceed acceptable levels as indicated in this table. Proposals for new development that would cause standards to be exceeded shall only be approved if the project would provide a substantial benefit to the City (including but not limited to provision of affordable housing units or as part of a redevelopment project), and if adequate mitigation measures are employed to reduce interior noise levels to acceptable levels.

Consistent. Short-term construction of the project would temporarily increase local noise levels that may exceed Goleta’s construction noise standard of 65 A -weighted decibels; however, the project would include mitigation that would ensure noise levels do not exceed 65 dBA at nearby sensitive receptors. As discussed in the Sywest Final EIR under Impact NOI -1 in Section 4.11, Noise, mitigation would include temporary noise barrier installation as needed , construction signage, and outfitting trucks with “smart alarms” th at would reduce noise when operating in reverse. Further, noise 213
Attachment 2, Exhibit B
GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

43 generating construction activities above 65 dBA, are limited to occur Monday – Friday between the hours of 8 am -5 pm and not on State designated holidays.

Policy NE 1. 4: Acoustical Studies. An acoustical study that includes field measurement of noise levels may be required for any proposed project that would:
a) locate a potentially intrusive noise source near an existing sensitive receptor, or b) locate a noise-sensitive land use near an ex isting known or potentially intrusive noise source such as a freeway, arterial roadway, railroad, industrial facility, or airport traffic pattern. Acoustical studies should identify noise sources, magnitudes, and potential noise mitigation measures and des cribe existing and future noise exposure. The acoustical study shall be funded by the applicant and conducted by a qualified person or firm that is experienced in the fields of environmental noise assessment and architectural acoustics. The determination o f applicability of this requirement shall be made by the Planning and Environmental Services Department by applying the standards and criteria of Table 9-2.

Consistent. The Sywest Final EIR included a full acoustical analysis of the Project. It found that project construction would be consistent with this policy with implementation of sound attenuation mitigation measures, including the requirement for a Construction Noise Control Plan that will specify the noise reduction measures to be implemented during project construction to ensure noise levels do not exceed 65 dBA at nearby sensitive receptors at the Rancho Goleta mobile home community to the east.

Operational noise levels from loading bay activities and HVAC equipment would be well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 1.5: Acceptable Noise Levels. New construction and substantial alterations of existing construction shall include appropriate noise insulation measures (such as insulation, glazing, and other sound attenuation measures) so that such construction or renovations comply with state and building code standards for allowable interior noise levels. The intent of this policy is to require improved soundproofing for both noise receivers and sources.

Consistent. Operational noise levels from loading bay activities and HVAC equipment would be well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. Further, modern building construction generally provides an exterior -to- interior noise level reduction of 20 to 35 dBA with closed windows. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 3.3: Consultation with the ALUC, ALUC Sta ff, and City of Santa Barbara Staff. The City of Goleta shall continue to monitor and comment on airport- related projects and development proposed for the area surrounding the airport that is under the jurisdiction of the City of Santa Barbara. The City of Goleta shall consult with the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC)) when required by the ALUCP. City 214
Attachment 2, Exhibit B
GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

44 of Goleta staff may also consult with the ALUC, ALUC staff, and the Santa Barbara Airport Department for development projects within the Airport Influence Area.

Consistent. The City engaged with SBCAG staff, in their capacity as the ALUC staff, in August 2023. ALUC staff determined that the project would not be required to undergo ALUC review as the previous zoning ordinance and General Plan were found consistent with the 1993 Santa Barbara County ALUP and the project does not include any legislative amendments request.

Policy NE 5.1: New, Expanded, or Upgraded Stationary Noise Sources. The City shall require proposals for new stationary sources or expansions or alterations of use for an existing stationary source to include appropriate noise mitigation measures. Retrofits and facility upgrades under the permitting jurisdiction of the City should ensure that noise levels are reduced, particularly for sources that impact adjacent sensitive receivers.

Consistent. Operational noise levels from loading bay activities and HVAC equipment would be well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. As such, no mitigation measures are necessary for stationary noise sources. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 5.2: Equipment Maintenance. The City shall require that new and existing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment and other commercial/industrial equipment be adequately maintained in proper working order so that noise levels emitted by such equipment remain minimal. The City shall also require noise shieldin g or insulation for such equipment if operation of the equipment results in objectionable noise levels at adjacent properties.

Consistent. Operational noise levels for HVAC equipment would be well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. Rooftop HVAC equipment will be located behind a parapet screen wall , further reducing noise levels. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 5.4: Noise Barriers for Industrial/Commercial Sources. Absorptive types of noise barriers or walls should be used to reduce noise levels generated by industrial and certain heavy commercial uses. To be considered effective, the noise barrier should provide at least a 5-dBA-CNEL noise reduction.

Consistent. The Sywest Final EIR included a full acoustical analysis of the Project. It found that project construction would be consistent with this policy with implementation of sound attenuation mitigation measures, including the requirement for a Construction Noise Control Plan that will specify the noise reduction measures to be implemented during project construction to ensure noise levels do not exceed 65 dBA at nearby sensitive receptors at the Rancho Goleta mobile home community to the east.

Operational noise levels from loading bay activities and HVAC equipment would be 215
Attachment 2, Exhibit B
GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

45 well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 5.5: Limits on Truck Del iveries and Other Activities. The City shall consider requiring commercial and industrial uses that abut residential zones to restrict the hours of truck deliveries and trash pickups to minimize disruption to nearby residences, where practicable. Such restrictions may be imposed by incorporation of conditions of approval for new discretionary planning permits, or on a citywide basis through preparation and adoption of a Noise Ordinance. Limitations on hours for trash pickups should be considered during negotiation of new or renewed franchise agreements with trash haulers.

Consistent. Operational noise levels from loading bay activities would be well below the City’s 65 dBA CNEL standard, and below the existing ambient noise levels. For these reasons, the Project is consistent with this policy.

Policy NE 6.4: Restrictions on Construction Hours. The City shall require, as a condition of approval for any land use permit or other planning permit, restrictions on construction hours. Noise-generating construction activities for projects near or adjacent to residential buildings and neighborhoods or other sensitive receptors shall be limited to Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Construction in nonresidential areas away from sensitive receivers shall be limited to Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Construction shall generally not be allowed on weekends and state holidays. Exceptions to these restrictions may be made in extenuating circumstances (in the event of an emergency, for example) on a case by case basis at the discretion of the Director of Planning and Environmental Services. All construction sites subject to such restrictions shall post the allowed hours of operation near the entrance to the site, so that workers on site are aware of this limitation. City staff shall closely monitor compliance with restrictions on construction hours, and shall promptly investigate and respond to all noncompliance complaints.

Consistent. Project construction would occur Monday to Friday from 8:00 am t o 5:00 pm as required by the City.

9. HOUSING ELEMENT
Policy HE 2.2: Linkage of Housing and Jobs. To encourage adequate housing opportunities that meet the needs of the local workforce, the City will continue to require new non-residential development and proposed expansion or intensification of existing non -residential development to contribute to providing affordable housing within the City. The requirement can be met through the payment of affordable housing impact fees adopted by the City. Alternatives to satisfy this requirement may, at the discretion of the City, include providing housing on site, 216
Attachment 2, Exhibit B
GP/CLUP Consistency Analysis
Sywest Industrial Warehouse Project

46 housing assistance as part of employee benefit packages, or other alternatives of similar value.

Consistent. As an industrial project located in close proximity to the end of the commercial runway of the Santa Barbara Airport and given the flood plain issues associated with the site, no housing is proposed on the site. Project conditions will require paym ent of all Development Impact fees, including the Affordable Housing impact fee . The Affordable Housing in lieu (HIL) fee is a fair -share contribution to providing affordable housing within the City. The applicant will have the option of proposing an alternative to the payment of the HIL as outlined Policy HE 2.2. For this reason, the Project is consistent with this policy.

In addition to all applicable provisions of the Goleta Municipal Code (“GMC”), Sywest Development (“Applicant” or “Permittee” or “Owner”) agrees to the following conditions for the City’s approval of Case No. 17-121-DP (“Project Conditions”). The terms Applicant/Permittee/Owner in these conditions will be referred to as Permittee.

Unless the contrary is stated or clearly appears from the context, the construction of words and phrases used in these Project Conditions use the definitions set forth in the GMC. For purposes of these Project Conditions, the term “Director” refers to the Planning and Environmental Review Director, or designee.

1. AUTHORIZATION
a. The Development Plan , Alternative 2, allows the construction of a 70,594 -square- foot industrial warehouse and associated improvements. The project includes the installation of 106,520 square feet of landscaping, 92 parking spaces, and 8 loading zones. The project involves the demolition of a freestanding movie screen, concessions stand, projector building, two drive -through ticket booths, one walk -in ticket booth, and an agricultural storage box storing flattened cardboard boxes .

Development of the project would require approximately 600 cubic yards (CY) of soil cut and approximately 39,200 CY of soil fill. Alternative 2 would include demolition of the same existing drive-in theater structures and has identical total building area statistics as the originally proposed project . However, the lay out and shape of the industrial building would be reconfigured and the location on the project site would be shifted to the northwest and southwest in order to avoid development within the San Jose Creek 100 -foot SPA buffer to the extent feasible. Alternative 2 has a n additional 45,581 square feet of landscaping, nine fewer parking spaces, two additional loading zones, and 1,200 CY more fill than the originally proposed project.

During operation, the project shall not include any cold storage type uses. b. Approval of the Development Plan will expire five (5) years after approval, unless before the expiration, substantial physical construction has been completed on the Development Plan, or a time extension has been applied for by the Permittee. The decision-maker with jurisdiction over the project may, upon good cause shown, grant a time extension as specified by City regulations. If the Permittee requests a Time Extension, the project may be revised to include updated language to standard conditions and/or may include revised/additional conditions which reflect changed circumstances or additional identified project impacts. Any new fees imposed, and existing fees will be those in effect at the time of the extension request. 222

Project Description:

The City of Goleta has chosen to approve an alternative design from the one originally approved called “Alternative 2: 100 -Foot Streamside Protection Area Setbac k” (“Alternative 2”) which has fewer impacts than the original project . The components of Alternative 2 include:
 Demolition of the existing drive -in theater, including the freestanding movie screen, concessions stand, pr ojector building, two drive -through ticket booths, one walk -in ticket booth, and an agricultural box, and removal of one of the dewatering wells.  Construction of a 70,594 square foot industrial warehouse building with 60,939 square feet of landscaping, 101 parking spaces, six loading zones, and 10 bicycle parking spaces. The maximum building height would be 35 feet measured from the finished grade with the site being raised 4 -6 feet to elevate the finished floor of the building out of the floodplain. The industrial warehouse building could be divided into up to four sections and would be available for use by up to four tenants.  Observation of the 100’ Streamside Protection Area buffer from San Jose Creek  Access to and from the project site would continue to be provided from South Kellogg Avenue via an existing access road that runs along the northeast project boundary.

The east curb of the existing driveway would be widened in order to provide an adequate maneuvering area for delivery trucks to enter and exit the project site.  Stormwater runoff from the majority of the project site would be directed to a detention basin constructed at the southern border of the development area with a new 18 -inch outfall to be constructed in the existing San Jose Creek concrete channel wall. Stormwater runoff from the northeastern portion of the project site would be directed to a vegetated drainage swale located along the eastern side of the entry driveway prior to discharge to the existing storm drain o utlet located 271

NOTICE OF DETERMINATION (NOD)

2 approximately 115 feet south of the intersection of South Kellogg Avenue and the entry driveway.
 The project site is within a mapped 100 -year floodplain. Between 4 to 6 feet of fill would be used to elevate the proposed building above the 10 0-year floodplain elevation. Development of the proposed project would require approximately 600 cubic yards (CY) of soil cut and approximately 38,000 CY of soil fill.

This is to advise that the City Council of the City of Goleta has approved the above-described project on July 15, 2025 , and has made the following determinations regarding the above- described project:

1. The project will have a significant effect on the environment.
