OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment project is comprised of approximately 724- acres and involves the following Accessor' s Parcel Numbers 192- 020- 61, - 62, - 63, - 64, - 06, - 07, - 08, - 09, - 65, - 66, - 38, - 22, - 48, - 52, - 19, - 18, - 68, - 69, - 16, - 36, - 70, - 14, - 11, - 02, and - 03.

BACKGROUND:

The Central Lathrop Specific Plan was approved by the City Council on November 9, 2004 ( Resolution No. 04- 1779). The project included certification of an Environmental Impact Report ( EIR) ( SCH# 2003072132), for the CLSP, adoption of the Specific Plan document, General Plan Land Use Map amendments, Zoning Map, and text amendments to the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC). The CLSP is separated into two ( 2) major phases of development. Phase 1 is generally located south of Dos Reis Road and includes Lathrop High School, development of a regional park adjacent to Lathrop High School), residential and commercial uses. Phase 2 is located north of Dos Reis Road and previously included development of residential and commercial uses, parks, and school sites ( K- 8). The City Council recently adopted the comprehensive Lathrop General Plan Update ( adopted on September 19, 2022) and the CLSP area north of Dos Reis Road was modified from residential and commercial land use designations to Limited Industrial.

A Rezone ( map) to the properties in the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment area is being processed by the City via the Zoning Consistency Update Project. The proposed Amendment to the CLSP for Phase 2 would further bring the Specific Plan into consistency with the Lathrop General Plan and would allow development of Limited Industrial uses pursuant to the LMC and the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document.

ANALYSIS:

As noted above, the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP) was originally approved in 2004. The proposed CLSP Phase 2 Amendment includes updates and modifications for Phase 2 of CLSP only. The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment does not change the entitlements for Phase 1 of the CLSP and is a stand- alone document intended to implement the design and development standards and concepts for Phase 2. The primary goals of the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment are designed to achieve the following:

Establish a comprehensive land use plan that will guide development of the approximately 724- acre CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Area.

Update the City' s long- term vision for the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Area in accordance with the recently adopted Lathrop General Plan, by incorporating refinements designed to reflect evolving innovation in land use planning concepts.
589
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 4
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
Establish a regional industrial development area adjacent to the I- 5 freeway that makes use of the visibility and prime freeway access provided by the Roth Road and I- 5 Interchange.

Maximize passive recreational opportunities through the creation of a comprehensive linear park and open space system located adjacent to and providing access to the San Joaquin River.

Generate positive fiscal benefits for the City resulting from the regional industrial development.

Increase employment and shopping opportunities for City residents.

Provide job generating land uses in close proximity to residential uses in order to minimize home- to- work vehicular trip lengths, automobile usage and related air quality impacts.

Provide an integrated, efficient, and safe circulation system for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit and vehicles.

Provide roadway improvements and land use planning that will tie together with existing development.

Establish a logical phasing plan that assures that each phase of development will include all necessary public improvements required to meet City standards.

Add value to the existing and future City of Lathrop community and contribute to the establishment of a strong local economic base through job creation and the economic stimulus that comes from the multi- million- dollar investment required to develop the CLSP and the disposable income of the people who live and work in the plan area.

Implement the development program envisioned for the CLSP on property that the Lathrop General Plan designates for Limited Industrial uses.

To the extent feasible, incorporate future project designs that minimize environmental impacts.

Provide a logical and orderly extension of the City of Lathrop that is compatible with and complements existing and planned land uses within other portions of the City.

CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 5
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
Satisfy the City policies, regulations and expectations as defined in the Lathrop General Plan and Municipal Code.

Provide services and infrastructure that meet or exceed City standards and that do not diminish services to existing residents of the City.

Enrich the relationship between the City and the San Joaquin River by incorporating the river' s edge as a critical component of the CLSP Parks and open space program.

The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment is organized as follows: Introduction, Land Use, Circulation and Transportation, Natural Resources Management, Community Services and Facilities, Utilities and Drainage Infrastructure, Design Guidelines, Implementation, and Financing.

OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
The following are the proposed land uses within the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Project.

Limited Industrial
The Limited Industrial use applies to most of the plan area. It is anticipated that uses such as warehousing and manufacturing that do not require a high degree of visibility and truck dependence, will be located in areas of the plan area that minimize the potential for air quality and noise impacts to sensitive receptors. The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Plan Area is envisioned to accommodate a wide range of job generating uses, including business parks, clean light industrial, research and development R& D); science, technology, engineering, and math ( STEM); tech/ biotech manufacturing; high- tech services that incorporate some combination of assembly; warehousing, and/ or sales; hospitals, labs and other health care- related uses, and distribution centers.

OAen Space
The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment designates Open Space uses along the San Joaquin River and this designation spans the length of the western edge of the plan area.

The area is designated to provide an open space corridor consistent with the Lathrop General Plan. The open space corridor is intended as a local community wide facility with the possibility of regional linkage via multi- use trail. For example, the open space corridor will connect to developing and existing segments to the south within the CLSP Phase 1 area and the Mossdale Village developments.

Park
The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment retains the Dos Reis County Park designation, a County park within the City limits adjacent to the San Joaquin River.

Landscape Buffer along Dos Reis Road
The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment includes provisions for a landscape buffer along the north side of Dos Reis Road with two ( 2) different design themes. At locations where existing or proposed land uses on the south side of Dos Reis Road include sensitive receptors, the landscape buffer includes a 30- foot- wide landscape corridor within the public right- of- way including 22' of landscaping and an 8' paved sidewalk as well as an additional buffer on the adjacent private development parcels. At locations on Dos Reis Road where Commercial use is proposed to the south, the landscape buffer shall include a 26- foot-wide landscape corridor within the public right-of-way including 18 feet of landscaping and an 8 foot paved sidewalk as well as an additional buffer on the adjacent private development parcels. An 8' high solid wall is also required within the landscape buffer area. Additional buffers on the adjacent private development parcels in both scenarios shall be determined during the Site Plan Review process for each specific development process. The following exhibit illustrates the location of the suggested landscape buffers. 593

CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 9
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
Code Text Amendment
The proposed Code Text Amendment includes language and provisions specific to the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Project and would modify Chapter 17. 62, Central Lathrop Zoning Districts of the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC) to establish an " IL- CL", Limited Industrial Zoning District with development standards. Specifically, the Code Text Amendment would add Article 6, IL- CL: Limited Industrial Zoning Districts to Chapter

17. 62. The IL- CL district is intended to provide industrial employment opportunities for residents of the city and region. The IL designation accommodates a wide range of job- generating uses, including business parks; clean light industrial; research and development ( R& D); science, technology, engineering, and math ( STEM); tech/ biotech manufacturing, and/ or sales, hospitals and other health care- related uses, warehouses and distribution centers.

General Plan Consistencv
The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment would implement General Plan Implementation Measure LU- 5. f which requires the City to update the CLSP. Specifically, General Plan Implementation Measure LU- 5. f states the following:

Update the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP) to accomplish the following objectives:
a. Bring the Specific Plan' s land use map into consistency with the General Plan Land Use Map ( Figure LU- 1)
b. Establish a circulation network that keeps future truck trips as far from existing and planned sensitive receptors as feasible; this includes, but not limited to, the following requirements, which shall be incorporated into the Specific Plan:
i. Trucks shall be prohibited on Dos Reis Road west and east of Golden Valley Parkway, on Golden Valley Parkway south of Dos Reis Road to Lathrop Road, and on Lathrop Road east of Golden Valley Parkway to Interstate 5 southbound off- ramp.
ii. Future truck dependent development projects shall be prohibited from providing driveway access points off Dos Reis Road, west of Golden Valley Parkway, other than emergency vehicle access ( EVA). iii. Truck traffic within the Limited Industrial Area of the Central Lathrop Specific Plan shall be limited to De Lima Road, and any future roadways north of Dos Reis Road, to connect to Manthey, Roth Road, and Interstate 5.
c. Establish site design standards for new industrial projects. 595
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 10
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
d. Identify financing and cost- recovery methods to fund roadway and infrastructure improvements.
e. Circulation design standards that promote safe transportation routes that limit impacts to developed areas to the south, and connectivity enhancements to provide better connectivity to I- 5.
f. Infrastructure improvements to improve roadway operations. g. Opportunities to provide employee- serving amenities onsite, such as parks and plazas, outdoor seating areas, fitness facilities, and daycare centers as a means to reduce vehicle trips, while supporting air quality, public health, and sustainability goals.
h. Include provisions that all development projects proposed north of Dos Reis Road and south of De Lima Road be required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit CUP), which shall be subject to discretionary review by the City Council.

Based on Staff' s review, the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment is consistent with the requirements of Implementation Action LU- 5. f. Chapter Three of the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document describes the proposed circulation system and transportation included in the plan area, including a Truck Route Plan that prohibits trucks on Dos Reis Road west and east of Golden Valley Parkway, on Golden Valley Parkway south of Dos Reis Road to Lathrop Road, and on Lathrop Road east of Golden Valley Parkway to Interstate 5 southbound off- ramp. Chapter Three also describes the Circulation Design standards and connectivity enhancements. Chapter Seven of the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document describes the Design Guidelines and Principles for new industrial projects as well as opportunities for employee- serving amenities.

In addition to fulfilling Implementation Measure LU. 5f above, the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment is consistent with the Goals, Policies and Implementation Measures listed in Table 1. 3 in the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document ( starting on Page 1- 8). The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment

3. Zoning Consistencx
The proposed Code Text Amendment would add language and provisions specific to the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Project and would modify Chapter 17. 62, Central Lathrop Zoning Districts to establish an IL- CL, Limited Industrial Zoning District including development standards.
596
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 11
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
The proposed CLSP Phase 2 Amendment document and amendments to the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC) will provide the necessary regulations and provisions to implement the Specific Plan and review proposed projects within the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment area.

Findinas
Chapter Eight, Implementation, of the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP) provides guidance on interpretation and amendment of the Specific Plan. Specifically, the CLSP states the following:

Amendments to the Specific Plan, including the Design Guidelines, may be proposed by a developer or property owner or initiated by the City, and shall be processed in accordance with City ordinances and subject to the requirements and limitations of any applicable development agreement. All amendments shall be presented in a public hearing before City Council action on that proposal. Generally, the process for amending the Specific Plan is similar to that for amending the City's General Plan, with the difference that there is no limitation on the number of Specific Plan amendments that may be approved in any one year.

In this regard, the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment is a Staff- initiated amendment to the CLSP that would implement the Lathrop General Plan. As noted above, Implementation Measure LU- 5. f requires the City to amend the CLSP to be consistent with the General Plan. The amendment is being processed similar to that of a General Plan Amendment in that the proposed CLSP Phase 2 Amendment will be presented to the Planning Commission and City Council via Public Hearings.

Public Notice
A Notice of Public Hearing was advertised in the Manteca Bulletin on September 27, 2023. Staff also mailed the public hearing notice to notify property owners located within a 300- foot radius from the project site boundary. In addition, the Public Notice was emailed to the City' s Public Hearing subscribers and interested parties and posted at three ( 3) locations accessible to the public and the City website.

PLANNING COMMISSION:

On September 13, 2023, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed CLSP Phase 2 Amendment and Code Text Amendment. 597
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 12
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
After review and consideration of all information provided, and after taking and considering all public testimony, the Planning Commission voted unanimously ( 4- 0) to adopt Resolution No. 23- 12, recommending the City Council find the project exempt from further environmental review pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183 and approve the Central Lathrop Specific Plan Phase 2 Amendment comprised of approximately 724- acres and a Municipal Code Text Amendment to Chapter 17. 62, Central Lathrop Zoning Districts of the Lathrop Municipal Code. The Planning Commission Resolution is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment 6.

CEQA REVIEW:

If the above qualifications are met, as stated in Section 15183( b), " a public agency shall limit its examination of environmental effects to those which the agency determines, in an initial study or other analysis:

1. Are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located;

2. Were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the zoning action, general plan or community plan with which the project is consistent;

3. Are potentially significant off- site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the general plan, community plan or zoning action; or

4. Are previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new information which was not known at the time the EIR was certified, are determined to have a more severe impact than discussed in the prior EIR.

A detailed Environmental Checklist, dated August 2023, prepared by De Novo Planning Group was prepared to analyze the proposed Central Lathrop Specific Plan CLSP) Phase 2 Amendment and associated Code Text Amendment. 598
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 13
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
CLSP PHASE 2 AMENDMENT AND CODE TEXT AMENDMENT
Additionally, the Environmental Checklist analyzed two ( 2) other distinct, yet closely related actions being contemplated by the City: the City' s Zoning Consistency Project which includes amendments to the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC) and the City' s Zoning Map and the Ashley Furniture Project ( Site Plan Review No. SPR- 23- 09 and Conditional Use Permit No. CUP- 23- 08). As a result of the newly adopted General Plan, the City is initiating an update to the Municipal Code to bring the code and Zoning Map into consistency with the General Plan, and updating the Phase 2 portion of the CLSP into consistency with the General Plan. The City also received development applications for the Ashley Furniture Project within the boundaries of the CLSP Phase 2 area.

As explained in the Environmental Checklist in detail, the proposed projects are consistent with the City' s General Plan, for which an EIR was prepared and certified, and there are no site- specific or cumulative impacts associated with the proposed projects that have not been fully addressed in a previous environmental document, or that cannot be reduced to a less than significant level through the application of uniformly applied development policies and/ or standards. The findings in the Environm ntal Checklist demonstrate that no additional environmental analysis/ review is required CEQA prior to approval of the proposed projects.

The Environmental Checklist is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment 5.

RECOMMENDATION:

17. 62, Central Lathrop Zoning Districts to add Article 6, IL- CL, Limited Industrial Zoning Districts and modify Section 17. 62. 120 B of the Lathrop Municipal Code.

FISCAL IMPACT:

All application processing fees and costs are charged to the applicant. The request has no fiscal impact to the City.

Additionally, the 2004 Central Lathrop Specific Plan, as amended by the proposed Phase 2 Amendment is consistent with the General Plan Update goals related to achieving visual and functional quality of new development because it requires the provision of open space within the planning area and the provision of landscape buffers between the Phase 2 area and sensitive receptors.

7. The 2004 Central Lathrop Specific Plan, as modified by the proposed related Amendments, is consistent with the goals, policies, general land uses and implementation measures of the General Plan because it will promote orderly development of the plan through flexible phasing which is tied to the provisions of supporting infrastructure capacity in the construction of off- site infrastructure improvements.

BACKGROU N D:

The existing Ashley Furniture Outlet and Distribution Warehouse facility is located within the Crossroads Industrial area at 18290 S. Harlan Road ( APN: 198- 130- 39), just north of the Home Depot Distribution Center. The 525, 000 sq. ft. sq. ft. concrete tilt- up building was constructed in 2018 and includes a 50, 000 sq. ft. retail outlet and distribution warehouse.

The Ashley Furniture Outlet and Warehouse serves as an Ashley Homestore and Outlet and distribution center. The facility will serve Northern California and adjacent States with regional offices and a call center. The applicant informed staff that Ashley Furniture' s business operation has outgrown its existing facility on S. Harlan Road, and it is expected that the facility will be unable to accommodate the future operations anticipated for the company. As such, the proposed project will support the expansion needs of the company. Upon completion of the proposed project and relocation of the company to the new site, it is anticipated that subject to market conditions, the S. Harlan Road site will be completely vacated and listed for lease or sale.

The proposed project is located within the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP) Phase 2 area. The CLSP was approved by the City Council on November 9, 2004. The project included certification of the Environmental Impact Report ( EIR) ( SCH# 2003072132), for the CLSP, adoption of the Specific Plan document, General Plan Land Use Map amendments, Zoning Map, and text amendments to the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC). The CLSP is separated into two ( 2) major phases of development. Phase 1 is generally located south of Dos Reis Road and includes a High School, development of a regional park ( adjacent to the High School), residential and commercial uses. Phase 2 is located north of Dos Reis Road and previously included development of residential and commercial uses, parks, and school sites ( K8).

The Lathrop General Plan Update in 2022 ( adopted by City Council on September 19, 2022) modified the Phase 2 area ( north of Dos Reis Road to the City limit boundary) of the CLSP from Residential and Commercial Land Use Designations to Limited Industrial. As a result of the newly adopted General Plan, the City is also initiating an update to the Lathrop Municipal Code and Zoning Map to bring both into consistency with the General Plan. An Amendment to the CLSP for Phase 2 is being processed by the City concurrently with the proposed Ashley Furniture Project. The Amendment would update the Specific Plan to provide development standards and design guidelines for the development of limited industrial uses to be consistent with the intent of the recently assigned Limited Industrial General Plan Land Use Designation.

As such, all aspects of the proposed project have been reviewed in relationship to the Central Lathrop Specific Plan Phase 2 design criteria illustrated in Chapter 7, Design Guidelines" of the Specific Plan Amendment.

ANALYSIS:

Site Plan Review
As stated above, the proposed project includes the construction of a new 1, 486, 607 sq. ft. concrete tilt- up building on an 89. 82- acre site located at the northwest corner of Dos Reis Road and Manthey Road. The building will include the following uses:

Architecture
The proposed building is designed as a concrete tilt- up structure with colored wall accents and glass treatments near the outlet/ showroom entrance and employee entrances. The elevation facing S. Manthey Road and Interstate 5 ( I- 5) will convey a high- quality office/ retail appearance while maintaining key functions, including customer pick- up area along the southeast elevation. The appearance is achieved with glazing to indicate an office appearance and clerestory windows along the upper potions of the fa ade. The building also includes accent shading features, variations in parapet height and colors. Collectively, these provide for enhanced visual interest and varied building massing, to create distinctive points of entry for users. 733

Traffic Impact Anal sis Results
The intersection level of service analysis for Baseline plus Project Conditions results in three ( 3) intersections operating at unacceptable service levels during the a. m. and p. m. peak hour. It is important to note that the following intersection already operates at unacceptable level of service without the addition of project traffic:

Lathrop Road/ I- 5 Northbound Ramps degrades to LOS F in the p. m. peak hour, with an increase in average delay of 19. 1 seconds.

The following two ( 2) intersections would degrade from acceptable to unacceptable level of service with the addition of project traffic:

Lathrop Road- Spartan Way/ I- 5 Southbound Ramps would degrade from LOS D to LOS E in the a. m. and p. m. peak hour, a substantial degradation. 740
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 13
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
Spartan Way/ Golden Valley Parkway intersection would degrade from LOS C to LOS E in the a. m. peak hour and LOS D to LOS F in the p. m. peak hour, a substantial degradation.

To improve the traffic flow for the three ( 3) above noted intersections, the Traffic Impact Analysis recommends the following improvements:

A separate right- turn lane added to the Lathrop Road/ I- 5 Northbound off- ramp as well as signal timing to improve the intersection operation to LOS C in the a. m. and p. m. peak hours. The new lane should provide at least 400 ft. of vehicle storage.

For the Lathrop Road/ I- 5 Southbound off-ramp, adjusting the signal timing of the existing traffic lights will improve the intersection operate to LOS D in the a. m. and p. m. peak hour. Widening is not necessary for the Baseline plus Project Conditions at the southbound off- ramp.

For Spartan Way/ Golden Valley parkway, the TIA recommends making adjustments to the lane geometry ( number of turn lanes, through lanes, and right- turn lanes) to improve the efficiency of the intersection.

These improvements have been incorporated into the proposed project' s Conditions of Approval. The TIA is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment 10.

Utilities
Potable water will be supplied to the proposed project by the City of Lathrop via connection to an existing 12" water line in Golden Valley Parkway, south of Dos Reis Road. The CLSP Phase 2 Amendment states that water supply to the plan area will be provided from the City' s existing groundwater wells and potable surface water from the South County Surface Water Supply Program ( SCSWSP) by the South San Joaquin Irrigation District ( SSJID).

Wastewater generated by the project will be treated by the City' s Consolidated Treatment Facility ( CTF) along Christopher Way, southeast of the project site. The project will connect to an existing 24" sanitary sewer line in Golden Valley parkway, south of Dos Reis Road. As part of the project' s Conditions of Approval, the applicant is required to secure sufficient sewer treatment capacity, including treatment at the City' s CTF.

Per the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment, stormwater runoff from the plan area is designed to discharge into the San Joaquin River through an existing outfall located near the southwest corner of the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment Plan Area at the end of Dos Reis Road and the existing outfall within the Phase 1 area.

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
Where applicable, Conditions of Approval have been incorporated to the proposed project to address the following improvements: perimeter wall treatment, on- site lighting, screening of exterior building equipment ( e. g., mechanical equipment, A/ C, etc.), screening of commercial truck and trailer storage, and landscape buffer requirements and treatment.

General Plan
The project site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of LI, Limited Industrial.

The intent of the IL land use designation is to, accommodate a wide range of jobsgenerating uses, including business parks; clean light industrial; research and development ( R& D); science, technology, engineering, and math ( STEM); tech/ biotech manufacturing; high- tech services that incorporate some combination of assembly, warehousing, and/ or sales, hospitals and other health care- related uses, warehouses and distribution centers."
The Ashley Furniture Project has been reviewed by Staff for consistency with the General Plan and finds that the proposed project is consistent with the following General Plan Policies and Implementation Actions ( consistency statements are in italics):

LU- 5. 1 Require new development to be compatible and complementary to existing development. Where appropriate and feasible, promote connections between neighborhoods and services and facilities.

As noted above, the subject property has a General Plan Land Use Designation of LI, Limited Industrial and will be located within the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP) Phase 2 Amendment area IL, Limited Industrial Zoning District. The proposed project would improve and extend Golden Valley Parkway and construct a roundabout at the intersection of Dos Reis Road and Golden Valley Parkway which would provide connection to the CLSP Phase 1 area for passenger vehicles. The proposed use is compatible with the IL, Limited Industrial Zoning District and the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment.

LU- 5. 4 In industrial areas located within 1, 000 feet of existing or planned sensitive receptors, promote industrial uses that are environmentally sustainable with limited potential to create nuisances such as noise and odors.

An Environmental Noise Assessment, prepared by Saxelby Acoustics and a Health Risk Assessment ( HRA), prepared by De Novo Planning Group were prepared to analyze the noise and health risks impacts associated with the proposed project, respectively.
744
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 17
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ASHLEY FURNITURE PRO7ECT
As noted in the Environmental Noise Assessment, the City' s General Plan limits stationary noise increases to 3 dBA, or the City' s noise standards (daytime ( 7: 00 am to 10: 00 pm) maximum of 55 d8A and nighttime ( 10: 00 pm to 7: 00 am) maximum of 45 d8A). The average ambient noise level during nighttime hours at the closest sensitive receptors to the southwest is 54 d8A Leq. At the sensitive receptors to the southwest, a project- generated noise level of 51 dBA Leq would result in a total noise level of 54 d8A Leq, resulting in a 3d8A increase. Therefore, the nighttime noise level standard applicable to the proposed project is 51 d8A LeQ.

The primary noise source associated with operation of the proposed project is truck and automobile circulation and loading docks. Single family residential land uses are located to the north, west, and south of the project, Lathrop High School is located to the west of the project, and Interstate 5 is located directly east of the project.

Saxelby Acoustics conducted noise measurements at the existing Ashley Facility located on 5. Harlan Road. Measurements were conducted in the loading dock area during a weekday peak hour of use. Activities during the peak hour include truck arrival/ departures, truck idling, truck backing, air 6rake release, passenger vehicle trips to and from docks, and operation of forklifts. Loading dock activity was found to generate continuous average noise levels of approximately 57 d8A Leq at the edge of the truck maneuvering lanes, approximately 120 feet from the fa ade of the building at the center of the loading area. Saxelby Acoustics took these measurements and utilized SoundPLAN to predict noise levels for the proposed project.

The proposed project is predicted to generate noise levels up to 45 d8A Leq at the nearest residences to the southwest and 39 dBA LeQ at the residences to the northeast, resulting in a maximum increase of 0. 9 d8A at nearby residences. This complies with the adjusted nighttime noise level standard of 51 d8A Leq and limit of 3 d8A increase. Therefore, the Environmental Noise Assessment did not recommend any additional noise control measures to achieve compliance with the City's noise level standards.

Although not specifically required to achieve noise level standards, the proposed project includes an 8- foot tall solid wall along the southern property line and a portion of the northern property as required by the Lathrop Municipal Code when an industrial use is adjacent to a residential use and for screening purposes along Dos Reis Road.

This will assist in reducing noise exposure from the operation of the Ashley Furniture project. Additionally, the project is required to adhere to California Air Resources Board ( CARB) rules and regulations for use of diesel fueled fleets, including limiting the idling time for heavy trucks to five ( 5) minutes.

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
The HRA was prepared to evaluate whether or not the estimated construction and operational toxic air contaminant ( TAC) emissions generated from the proposed project will cause significant impacts to the local air resources in the project area, in particular, sensitive receptors such as residences located in proximity to the project.

The results of the risk analysis indicate that cancer risks vary depending on the exposure scenario ( residential or worker) and on location. Locations nearest the project site have the greatest exposure and the associated risks are considerably lower as distance from the project site increases. None of the exposure levels at any of the nearby sensitive receptors exceed any of the thresholds of significance established by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District ( SJVAPCD) for residents or workers. This finding applies to both cancer risks and non- cancer chronic long term exposure to diesel particulate matter ( DPM).

LU- 5. 5 Ensure that industrial development projects, including warehouse, distribution, Iogistics, and fulfillment projects, mitigate adverse impacts including health risks and nuisances) to nearby residential land uses and other existing and planned sensitive receptors.

As noted above, a Health Risk Assessment, prepared by De Novo Planning Group has been prepared as part of the Environmental Checklist. The HRA findings are described above. The HRA concluded that the project would not exceed any of the applicable thresholds of significance related to toxic air contaminants and health risks.

LU- 5a Through the development review process, screen development proposals for land use and transportation network compatibility with existing surrounding or abutting development or neighborhoods.

As noted above, a Traffic Impact Analysis ( TIA) was prepared for the proposed project by TJKM Transportation Consultants to evaluate the impacts of the transportation infrastructure due to the addition of traffic from the proposed project. The report also evaluates project site access and on- site circulation for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians. The proposed project includes a dedicated truck driveway located at the northeastern portion of the project site with full access to S. Manthey Road.

This driveway is approximately 488- feet in length and provides double- stacking for trucks entering the site and a single lane exiting the site. As required by the City' s General Plan, trucks are prohibited from utilizing Golden Valley Parkway, Dos Reis Road west of Golden Valley Parkway, Spartan Way, and Lathrop Road. As such, trucks entering and exiting the site will utilize Roth Road and S. Manthey Road. 746

LU- 5. b Through the development review process, analyze land use compatibility and require adequate buffers and/ or architectural enhancements to protect sensitive receptors from intrusion of development activities that may cause unwanted nuisances and health risks.

The proposed project includes a landscape buffer and screening along Dos Reis Road.

The buffer includes a 43 feet of on- site landscaping in addition to the 30 feet of landscaping within the public right- of-way adjacent to Dos Reis Road. Landscaping will include a mixture of deciduous shade trees and large evergreen trees for the purpose of screening.

LU- 5. c When industrial projects, including warehouse projects, fulfillment centers, and other projects that may generate high volumes of truck trips and/ or air quality emissions are proposed within 1, 000 feet of existing or planned residential sues or other sensitive receptors, the City shall require the preparation of a Health Risk Assessment ( HRA) that meets the standards established by the OfFice of Environmental Hazard Assessment ( OEHHA), and the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District ( SJVAPCD). Projects shall not be approved until it can be demonstrated that the project would not result in an exceedance of the established threshold of significance for public health risks at nearby sensitive receptors.

As noted above, an HRA, prepared by De Novo Planning Group, has been prepared as part of the Initial Study Checklist. The HRA was prepared in accordance with the standards established by OEHHA and SJVAPCD. The HRA findings are presented above.

LU- 5. d When industrial projects, including warehouse projects, fulfillment centers, and other projects that may generate high volumes of truck trips and/ or air quality emissions are proposed within 1, 000 feet of existing or planned residential uses or other sensitive receptors, the City shall require the implementation of best management practices ( BMPs) to reduce pollution exposure to sensitive receptors, particularly diesel particulate matter ( DPM). The appropriate BMPs shall be established on a case- by- case basis, and should consider the following tools, methods, and approaches:

Creating physical, structural, and/ or vegetative buffers that adequately prevent or substantially reduce pollutant dispersal between warehouses and any areas where sensitive receptors are 747

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
Conditions of A, proval
Planning staff routed the project plans on February 14, 2023 and May 17, 2023 to the Building Division, Public Works Department, Lathrop- Manteca Fire District, Lathrop Police Department for review and to ensure compliance with applicable codes and requirements. Planning staff also routed the project plans on June 1, 2023 to various non- City agencies. The City received comments from the following agencies:

Caltrans
San Joaquin Council of Governments
San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department
San ) oaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District
South San Joaquin Irrigation District
Pacific Gas & Electric
The Caltrans letter stated that the project has the potential to significantly impact the interchange and requested that a Traffic Impact Study be submitted to Caltrans for review and comment prior to project approval.

As noted above, City staff routed the Traffic Impact Analysis, prepared by TJKM to Caltrans on July 12, 2023. The City received a letter from Caltrans on August 9, 2023 with comments on the Traffic Impact Study. The majority of the comments were associated with the technical aspects of the Traffic Impact Study, such utilizing Caltran' s Three County Travel Demand Model, trip count year, and request for an explanation why Lathrop Interchange is not being utilized by trucks. TJKM will continue to work with Caltrans to refine the Traffic Impact Study. As noted above, the applicant will be required to construct a separate right- turn lane to the Lathrop Road/ I- 5 Northbound off- ramp ( 400 ft. of vehicle storage) which will require an Encroachment Permit from Caltrans. The applicant is working with Caltran' s to address their concerns.

SJCOG provided information regarding the project' s participation in the San Joaquin County Multi- Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan ( SJMSCP) and that the project is located within the Airport Influence Zone pursuant to the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan ( ALUC). Additional review has been completed by SJCOG and the project was found to be compatible with the ALUC.

The San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department provided requirements for geotechnical drilling and process for abandonment and destruction of any wells or septic systems on the property.

ASHLEY FURNITURE PRO) ECT
San ) oaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District ( SJVAPCD) provided comments on measures to reduce air quality impacts associated with diesel vehicles and industrial projects, instructions for preparation of a Health Risk Screening/ Assessment and the District' s Rules and Regulations.

The Pacific Gas & Electric ( PGE) letter provided requirements for planting trees and shrubs along S. Manthey Road and underneath existing PG& E overhead pole line and that any planting in this area must comply with PG& E' s guide to Trees and Shrubs for Power Line- Friendly Landscaping.

As a result, staff developed a consolidated list of conditions ( Attachment 3). Staff finds that the proposed project has been properly conditioned to meet the City' s standards and requirements.

PLANNING COMMISSION:

On September 13, 2023, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed Conditional Use Permit ( CUP- 23- 08) and Site Plan Review ( SPR- 23- 09) for the Ashley Furniture Project. The Planning Commission received written correspondence from Lozeau Drury, LLP, representing LIUNA regarding the City' s environmental analysis for the Ashley Warehouse Project prepared under the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 ( the Environmental Analysis").

The comment letter incorrectly asserts that additional CEQA analysis must be completed for the Ashley Warehouse project, and the City must adopt a statement of overriding considerations.

The City relied on the exemption provisions provided under Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines. Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and corresponding State CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 allows a streamlined environmental review process for projects that are consistent with the densities established by existing zoning, community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified. The Ashley Warehouse project is consistent with the City of Lathrop General Plan land uses and development intensities designated on the project site.
753
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 26
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
As such, the appli ation of CEQA to the approval of development projects, such as the proposed Ashley Project, shall be limited to effects on the environment which are peculiar to the parcel or to the Project and which were not addressed as significant effects in the prior environmental impact report, or which substantial new information shows will be more significant than described in the prior environmental impact report. ( Pub. Res. Code § 21083. 3.) Further, an effect of a project on the environment is not considered peculiar to the parcel or the project, if uniformly applied development policies or standards have been adopted by the local agency with a finding that they will substantially mitigate that effect when applied to future projects.

State CEQA Guidelines § 15183( f).)
The lead agency must make a finding at a public hearing that any mitigation measures in the prior EIR that apply to the project' s specific effects, and that the lead agency found to be feasible, will be undertaken. ( Pub. Res. Code § 21083. 3( c); State CEQA Guidelines § 15183( e).) The City has done that here, by incorporating relevant policies, actions, standards, and other mitigating requirements as Conditions of Approval for the Ashley Warehouse project. These requirements and standards are specifically identified throughout the Environmental Analysis the City prepared for the Ashley Warehouse project. Such a finding is not required for potentially significant environmental effects that are not considered peculiar to the parcel or the project if uniformly applied development policies or standards were previously adopted by the agency with a
finding that the policies or standards would
substantially mitigate the environmental effect when applied to future projects.

State CEQA Guidelines § 15183( f).) When the agency has failed to make such a finding previously, it can do so when it approves the later project.

Often, such certified prior EIRs are Program EIRs and, in fact, the factual questions as to whether project impacts fall within the scope of the prior EIR are very similar.

As to reliance on a Program EIR, later activities are examined to determine whether an additional environmental document must be prepared. ( State CEQA Guidelines § 15168( c).) As the commenter notes, if a later activity would result in environmental effects that were not examined in the Program EIR, the agency must prepare an initial study to determine whether an EIR or negative declaration is required to address those effects. ( Id.) However, as is the case here, if a later activity would not have any effects that were not examined in the Program EIR ( including any new or more severe impacts), the agency can approve the activity as being within the scope of the project covered by the Program EIR, and no new environmental document would be required. ( Id.)
754
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 27
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
Factors that an agency may consider in determining whether a later activity is within the scope of a Program EIR include " consistency of the later activity with the type of allowable land use, overall planned density and building intensity, geographic area analyzed for environmental impacts, and covered infrastructure as described in the program EIR." ( State CEQA Guidelines § 15168( c).) An agency must incorporate feasible mitigation measures and alternatives developed in the Program EIR into later activities in the program. ( Id.) ' Where the later activities involve site specific operations, the agency should use a written checklist or similar device to document the evaluation of the site and the activity to determine whether the environmental effects of the operation were within the scope of the program EIR." ( Id.) The City' s Environmental Analysis complies with both Section 15183 and Section 15168 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The commenter claims that an EIR is required for the Project. While the applicability of the exemption provided by State CEQA Guidelines 15183 does not turn on whether the City completes some form of preliminary review, here the City did use an environmental checklist which identifies whether or not each CEQA Appendix G environmental checklist question, and its corresponding impacts, were adequately addressed in the Lathrop General Plan EIR, if there is a significant impact due to new information, or if the Project would result in a significant impact peculiar to the Project site that was not adequately addressed in the General Plan EIR. The Environmental Analysis identifies the applicable City of Lathrop development standards and policies that would apply to the proposed Project during both the construction and operational phases, identifies applicable state- level standards and requirements, and explains how the application of these uniformly applied standards and policies would ensure that no peculiar or site- specific environmental impacts would occur.

The commenter states that potential impacts to biological resources were not properly analyzed in the General Plan EIR or the Environmental Analysis. As demonstrated in the Environmental Analysis, all potential impacts related to biological resources specific to the project site were analyzed in detail, and it was determined that no significant or site- specific impacts would occur. With respect the valley elderberry longhorn beetle, the Environmental Analysis and the supporting Biological Resources Analysis Report ( Attachment A of the Environmental Analysis) specifically address potential impacts to this federally- protected species, and uniformly applied standards and procedures are identified in order to ensure that no impacts to this species occur. As described on page 49 of the Environmental Analysis, an elderberry shrub ( Sambucus sp.) was identified along the western fence line of the warehouse site. Elderberry is the host plant of the Valley elderberry longhorn beetle ( VELB) Desmocerus californicus dimorphus). If the plant can be maintained on the warehouse site, then a 20 foot setback buffer will need to be established around it' s dripline. If the plant cannot be maintained on the warehouse site, then VELB exit hole surveys will need to be conducted as outlined in the USFWS protocol ( USFWS 2017). 755
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 28
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
Whether or not exit holes are identified will determine the required mitigation measures necessary under the SJMSCP ( SJCOG 2000). As further noted on page 52 of the Environmental Analysis, a series of requirements have been imposed on the project to reduce any potential impacts to this species. These requirements comply with guidelines established by the USFWS and the SJMSCP and have been made conditions of approval for the project. The implementation of these measures and requirements would ensure that no significant impacts occur to this resource. As such, the project would not result in any impacts related to this environmental topic that are peculiar or site specific.

With respect to potential impacts to Swainson' s Hawk, as noted on page 51 of the Environmental Analysis, no nesting hawks are located on the project site. While the conversion of the site to developed uses would convert potential foraging habitat, this conversion of foraging habitat is specifically contemplated under the SJMSCP, in which the project is required to participate via the payment of fees. According to Chapter 1 of the SJMSCP, its key purpose is to provide a strategy for balancing the need to conserve open space and the need to convert open space to non- open space uses, while protecting the region' s agricultural economy; preserving landowner property rights; providing for the long- term management of plant, fish and wildlife species, especially those that are currently listed, or may be listed in the future, under the Federal Endangered Species Act ( ESA) or the California Endangered Species Act CESA); providing and maintaining multiple use Open Spaces which contribute to the quality of life of the residents of San Joaquin County; and, accommodating a growing population while minimizing costs to project proponents and society at large." In addition, the goals and principles of the SJMSCP include the following:

Provide a County- wide strategy for balancing the need to conserve open space and the need to convert open space to non- open space uses, while protecting the region' s agricultural economy.

Preserve landowner property rights.

Provide for the long- term management of plant, fish, and wildlife species, especially those that are currently listed, or may be listed in the future, under the ESA or the CESA.

Provide and maintain multiple- use open spaces, which contribute to the quality of life of the residents of San Joaquin County.

Accommodate a growing population while minimizing costs to project proponents and society at large.
756
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 29
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ASHLEY FURNITURE PRO] ECT
In addition to providing compensation for conversion of open space to non- open space uses, which affect plant and animal species covered by the S) MSCP, the SJMSCP also provides some compensation to offset impacts of open space conversions on non- wildlife related resources such as recreation, agriculture, scenic values and other beneficial open space uses. Specifically, the SJMSCP compensates for conversions of open space to urban development and the expansion of existing urban boundaries, among other activities, for public and private activities throughout the County and within Escalon, Lathrop, Lodi, Manteca, Ripon, Stockton, and Tracy.

The commenter further asserts, without providing any supporting evidence, that traffic induced by the proposed project would lead to collisions with wildlife. Traffic volumes generated by the proposed project are consistent with the cumulative traffic volumes throughout the project vicinity and larger Lathrop General Plan Planning Area, which were the subject of detailed analysis in the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR included a cumulative analysis of potential impacts to biological resources associated with General Plan buildout. There is nothing peculiar about the project site that indicates the potential for site- specific impacts to wildlife.

The commenter asserts that the Environmental Analysis does not address potential energy impacts peculiar to the proposed Ashley Warehouse facility. However, the commenter provides no supporting evidence that the project would result in a wasteful or inefficient use of energy. As noted in the Environmental Analysis, on page 66, the proposed project would be in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and local regulations regulating energy usage. Project- related electricity use results in indirect emissions, due to electricity generation activities occurring at offsite power plant locations. For the warehouse project, electrical power will be supplied by PG& E. PG& E is in the process of implementing the Statewide Renewable Portfolio Standard ( RPS) to increase the proportion of renewable energy ( e. g. solar and wind) within its energy portfolio. Additionally, energy- saving regulations, including the latest State Title 24 building energy efficiency standards (" part 6"), would be applicable to the proposed project. Other Statewide measures, including those intended to improve the energy efficiency of the statewide passenger and heavy- duty truck vehicle fleet ( e. g. the Pavley Bill and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard), would improve vehicle fuel economies, thereby conserving gasoline and diesel fuel. These energy savings would continue to accrue over time. As a result, the proposed warehouse project would not result in any significant adverse impacts related to project energy requirements, energy use inefficiencies, and/ or the energy intensiveness of materials by amount and fuel type for each stage of the project including construction, operations, maintenance, and/ or removal. PG& E, the electricity and natural gas provider to the site, maintains sufficient capacity to serve the proposed project. The proposed warehouse project would comply with all adopted energy standards, including those adopted by the City of Lathrop, and would not result in significant adverse impacts on energy resources. 757
CITY MANAGERS REPORT PAGE 30
OCTOBER 9, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING

ASHLEY FURNITURE PROJECT
For these reasons, the proposed warehouse would not be expected cause an inefficient, wasteful, or unnecessary use of energy resources nor cause a significant impact on any of the threshold as described by Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines.

The proposed warehouse project is consistent with the adopted vision and uses identified within the General Plan, and would not result in any new or increased energy- related impacts beyond those that were already addressed in the General Plan EIR.

The commenter expresses skepticism over the results of the project- specific and states that CaIEEMod input files should be made available. These files are available to the public.

As described in detail above, contrary to the commenter' s assertions, as evaluated in the City' s Environmental Analysis, there are no significant impacts associated with the proposed project that would be different from, or exceed the level of severity of any significant impacts identified in the General Plan EIR. As such, there is no need for the City to prepare further environmental review or adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the proposed Ashley Warehouse project.

12. After review and consideration of all information provided, and after taking and considering all public testimony, the Planning Commission voted unanimously ( 4- 0) to adopt Resolution No. 23- 13, recommending the City Council find the project exempt from further environmental review pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183 and approve the Conditional Use Permit ( CUP- 23- 08) and Site Plan Review ( SPR- 23- 09) for the proposed Ashley Furniture Project. The Planning Commission Resolution is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment 11.

CEQA REVIEW:

California Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183 allows for a streamlined environmental review process for projects which are consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an Environmental Impact Report ( EIR) was certified, except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project- specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site.

If the above qualifications are met, as stated in Section 15183( b), " a public agency shall limit its examination of environmental effects to those which the agency determines, in an initial study or other analysis:

1. Are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located;

2. Were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the zoning action, general plan or community plan with which the project is consistent;

3. Are potentially significant off- site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the general plan, community plan or zoning action; or

A detailed environmental analysis, prepared in the form of an Environmental Checklist with supporting technical analysis, has been prepared by De Novo Planning Group, to provide analysis of three distinct, yet closely related actions being contemplated by the City. These include an update to the Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC) and Zoning Map ( Zoning Consistency Update), and update to the Phase 2 ( CLSP Phase 2 Amendment) and the proposed Ashley Furniture Project.

The three ( 3) projects are being implemented as a result of the City' s comprehensive General Plan update, which was adopted on September 19, 2022. The General Plan Update provides a framework for future growth and projects the development reasonably expected during the build- out of the City. The Lathrop General Plan Update EIR analyzed the environmental impacts associated with adoption and implementation of the General Plan. All three of the actions analyzed in the Environmental Checklist are consistent with the General Plan, and were analyzed and accounted for in the General Plan EIR.

The Environmental Analysis includes a discussion and analysis of any peculiar or sitespecific environmental impacts associated with adoption of the Municipal Code and Zoning Map Update, adoption of the CLSP Phase 2 Amendment, and construction and operation of the proposed Ashley Furniture Project.

The Environmental Analysis identifies whether or not each CEQA Appendix G environmental checklist question, and its corresponding impacts, were adequately addressed in the 2022 Lathrop General Plan EIR, if there is a significant impact due to new information, or if the project would result in a significant impact peculiar to the project site that was not adequately addressed in the General Plan EIR. The Environmental Analysis identifies the applicable City of Lathrop development standards and policies that would apply to the proposed project during both the construction and operational phases, identifies applicable minimization measures from the General Plan EIR that must be implemented, identifies applicable state- level standards and policies that would ensure that no peculiar or site- specific environmental impacts would occur.

The Environmental Analysis concluded that the proposed project is consistent with the land uses and development intensities assigned to the project site by the General Plan. Impacts from buildout of the General Plan including cumulative impacts associated with development and buildout of the CLSP Phase 2 plan area and the Ashley Furniture Project, as proposed, were fully addressed in the General Plan EIR State Clearinghouse No. 2021100139), and implementation of the proposed project would not result in any new or altered impacts beyond those addressed in the General Plan EIR.

All project requirements identified in the Environmental Checklist are incorporated in project Consolidated Conditions of Approval ( Attachment 3). The Environmental Checklist is attached to this Staff Report as Attachment 10.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Planning Commission and staff recommend that the City Council consider all information provided and submitted, take and consider all public testimony and, if determined to be appropriate, adopt a Resolution to Find the Project Exempt from Further Environmental Review Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083. 3 and California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183 and Adopt a Resolution to Approve a Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review for the Ashley Furniture Project.
