Waive Second Reading and Adopt by Title Only an Ordinance Regulating the Operation of Food Trucks, and Further Finding the Ordinance is Exempt from Environmental Review under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). (Kristine Mollenkopf)
SUBMITTED BY:

Item Number 7.C

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council waive second reading and adopt an Ordinance regulating the operation of food trucks, and further finding the Ordinance is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”).

BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION:

On July 22, 2025, the City Council held a public hearing, waived first reading, and with minor revision, introduced by title only an Ordinance adding Lincoln Municipal Code Chapter 5.25 regarding the operating of food trucks, and finding the Ordinance was exempt from CEQA.

A minor change was requested to (1) extend the allowable hours of operation from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight), rather than 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.; and (2) allow for unlimited vending during that timeframe, limited only to one continuous vending service every three days per vendor per location, rather than merely 6 hours of vending within a 72-hour period.

That revision was incorporated into Section 5.25.050(P).

This second reading is necessary to enact the Ordinance.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will need to update its Master Fee Schedule to include a fee for a Mobile Food Truck Permit.

Section 3. Severability. If any section, sub-section, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such a decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the Ordinance.

SUBJECT:

Waive First Reading and Introduce by Title only an Ordinance Establishing a Development Agreement between the City of Lincoln and Stardust 80, A California Limited Partnership in Association with the Stardust project, and further finding the Ordinance is Exempt from further Environmental Review under the California Environmental Quality Act. (Mikaela Noble) SUBMITTED BY:

DATE:

Item Number 8.A

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, consider the information contained in the staff report as well as the testimony of the public, and take the following actions:
1 .

Determine that an Addendum to the Village 1 Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (SCH #2010102018) for the Stardust project was previously adopted by the City Council, and therefore, no additional environmental review is required; 2 .

Consider waiving first reading and adopting by title only an Ordinance establishing a Development Agreement between the City of Lincoln and Stardust 80, A California Limited Partnership for the development of approximately 78 acres within the Village 1 Specific Plan Area.

BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION:

The Stardust project is located within the Village 1 Specific Plan. The subject property is approximately 78 acres and is zoned Village Low Density Residential (VLDR), Village Open Space (VOS) and Village Parks and Recreation (VPR). In July 2024, City Council approved the Large Lot Tentative Subdivision Map and Small Lot Tentative Subdivision Map for the Stardust project for the development of 302 VLDR units. An Addendum to the Village 1 Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was adopted as part of the project application (Attachment 1). At that time, the Development Agreement between the City of Lincoln (City) and Stardust 80, A California Limited Partnership (Owner) was still in process and was not brought forward with the project’s other entitlements.

STAFF REPORT
124
The Village 1 Specific Plan requires adoption of a Development Agreement, which delineates the obligation of the project proponent and the City with respect to the project. This requirement was also included in the Stardust project conditions of approval (Condition #4):

The ability to proceed under any approvals, entitlements, or authorizations granted by this action are contingent upon a Development Agreement being executed with the City of Lincoln, as per requirements of the approved Village-1 Specific Plan, and the Infrastructure & Public Facilities Financing Plan, which incorporates changes associated with this tentative map for the Applicant. Such Development Agreement shall be executed prior to City Council approval of any Final Map and may establish obligations to be completed prior to approval of any Final Map.

The Stardust Development Agreement vests the right to proceed with the development of the project in accordance with the approved project entitlements, including the Specific Plan and General Development Plan, and adopted EIR mitigation measures, and sets out obligations of both the City and the developer. It also specifies the public infrastructure (e.g., water lines, parks, drainage) that the project must construct, finance and maintain, either directly or through payments of fees. The City agrees to provide credits and/or reimbursements to the developer for the actual costs incurred to design and/or construct the required improvements.

The Development Agreement also lays out the obligations of the developer, including, but not limited to:

Payment of fees and exactions listed in the Development Agreement; Construction and/or financing of public infrastructure improvements necessary to serve the project, as set forth in the Village 1 Infrastructure Financing Plan; Construct a 12-18” water transmission main along the frontage the project site and connecting to McBean Park Drive;
Dedicate to the City all rights to groundwater underlying the project site, if such dedication is also required by the City of other major developers or subdividers; Design the drainage system for the project in accordance with the Village 1 Master Drainage report;
Provide neighborhood and regional parks at the population ratios. This requirement can be met through payment of applicable park fees;
Comply with local, State and federal regulatory requirements for open space preservation and maintenance and habitat and wetland mitigation, including a financing mechanism;
Construct trails shown on the Small Lot Tentative Subdivision Map; Mitigate for impacts on oak tree resources and Swainson’s Hawk foraging habitat as required by the EIR. This obligation can be met through payment of fees through the Placer County Habitat Conservation Plan, if available;
Agree to establish one or more Community Facility Districts (CFDs) to finance for funding of public infrastructure. Developer shall be solely responsible for a shortfall if the costs of applicable public improvements exceed the proceeds from the CFD; 125
Provide funding through a financing district and/or special tax for maintenance of existing and new public facilities needed by the project as identified in the IFP. Alternatively, the HOA may perform any of the maintenance obligations that would otherwise be including within a financing district, subject to the City’s satisfaction; Provide a funding mechanism for public services needed by the project where the costs would fall short of the amounts identified in the tax sharing agreement between the City and County;
For interim public safety costs, provide either a one-time payment per building permit or an alternative financing mechanism to fund the shortfall in revenue prior to sale of homes; and
Pay prevailing wages for construction of public improvements, consistent with State law.

The timing of development is in the developer’s sole and absolute discretion. If there are conflicts between the Development Agreement, Specific Plan, General Development Plan, and/or project conditions of approval, the Development Agreement controls. In addition, the project is required to comply with future City-enacted rules, regulations, ordinances, laws and policies, unless doing so would conflict with or reduce the Developer’s vested development rights. The provisions of the Development Agreement run with the property, so they continue to be in force even if the property ownership is transferred. The term of the Development Agreement is 20 years after the effective date. The Final Development Agreement must be adopted by Ordinance by the City Council.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

No further environmental analysis is required because the Addendum to the Village 1 Specific Plan EIR (SCH #2010102018) was previously approved and adopted by the City Council was intended to be used in connection with each of the entitlements and subsequent approvals needed for the project consistent with other CEQA policies and requirements applicable to tiered EIRs, and the action is further exempted by CEQA Guidelines Sections 15182 (Projects Pursuant to a Specific Plan) and 15183 (Projects Consistent with Zoning).

LEVINE ACT COMPLIANCE:

The applicant submitted a Levine Act Statement to the City and cited no contributions to a City elected or appointed officer totaling more than $500 within the reporting period.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Although the City will carry forward a liability, Developers will comply with any outstanding assessment district or community facilities district annexation requirements outlined in the 126
Development Agreement and project’s Conditions of Approval which serve to offset the cost of services being provided by the City.

STARDUST PROJECT IN VILLAGE 1
CE

QA ADDENDUM

INTRODUCTION
The Stardust project is located within the Village 1 Specific Plan. The Village 1 Specific Plan (Specific Plan) provides direction for development of 1,832 acres of land within the City of Lincoln1. The Specific Plan identifies land use designations and zoning for the plan area, the circulation system, utilities systems, parks and open space, and other planning considerations. In addition, the Specific Plan includes a wide range of goals and policies, design guidelines and development standards that will guide development within Village 1.

T
he City certified an Environmental Impact Report for the Village 1 Specific Plan EIR (SCH No. 2010102018), adopted the Mitigation Monitoring Program, and approved the Specific Plan on November 27, 2012. In 2013, revisions to the Specific Plan and an addendum to address changes to the Oak Tree Lane connection to Sierra College Boulevard and provision of an additional elementary school site were adopted. In 2015, 1,712 acres of the Village 1 Specific Plan were annexed to the City. Approximately 120 acres of the adopted Specific Plan were not included in that annexation due to opposition of the property owners. In March 2020, the Specific Plan was revised, and rezoning was adopted for a portion of the plan area known as Turkey Creek Estates, which occupies 248 acres on the eastern side of the plan area, north of SR 193. The amendments reduced the amount of land designated Village Country Estates (VCE) within the northern portion of the Turkey Creek Estates project, and increased the amount of Village Low Density Residential (VLDR) acreage. This resulted in a reduction of 128 VCE units and a corresponding increase of 128 VLDR units. Parks acreage was also reduced slightly, and there was an increase in the amount of open space. The total amount of developable acreage within the Specific Plan was unchanged. In September 2023, the City Council approved another amendment to the Village 1 Specific Plan, realigning Oak Tree Lane and making minor modifications to the land use plan. As a result, the total number of residential units was reduced to 5,610 from 5,639.

T
he Stardust project is proposed for Planning Areas (PA) 21, 49, and 68, portions of Planning Areas 23 and 51 and a landscape corridor (LSC). The Stardust project (project) would make minor changes to the boundaries of the land use designations within the project site.

T
he California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15163 state that a lead agency or responsible agency may prepare a Supplement to an EIR if any of the conditions described in Section 15162 for a Subsequent EIR are present, and if only minor additions or changes to the previous EIR are necessary to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the project in the changed situation. The following are conditions contained in the CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 that would apply to the preparation of a Subsequent EIR:

1. S
ubstantial changes are proposed in the project which would require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;

2. S
ubstantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken, which would require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant effects or a substantial increas e

2 been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as co mplete or the negative declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:

a) The project would have new or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;

b) Significant effects previously examined would be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;

c) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the proposed proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measures or alternative; or

d) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adapt the mitigation measure or alternative.

This addendum evaluates whether the Stardust project is fully and adequately addressed by the Village 1 Specific Plan EIR, as most recently modified and certified. For the reasons discussed below, the proposed Stardust project would not result in new significant environmental impacts or substantially increase the severity of environmental impacts identified in the Village 1 EIR. In several instances, impacts would be increased very slightly due to the reduction in open space acreage within the project site. However, this change would not substantially increase any impacts identified in the EIR. The discussion in this Addendum focuses on impacts that were found to be significant, with or without mitigation, in the Village 1 EIR and/or for which the proposed Stardust project would result in a substantial change in the severity of an impact (either reducing or increasing the severity).

ROJECT OVERVIEW
The Stardust project provides for residential development, parks/recreation facilities and open space on approximately 77.74 acres located within the Village 1 Specific Plan (Specific Plan) area within the City of Lincoln.

Project Location
The project site is located in the City of Lincoln south of State Route (SR) 193/McBean Park Drive (see Figure 1) within the Village 1 Specific Plan ( see Figure 2). The current parcel address is 200 Stardust Lane, Lincoln, CA 95648 (Assessor’s Parcel Number 021- 274-040-000). The project is bounded by Stardust Lane to the east, and vacant Village 1 parcels to the south and west and State Route 193/McBean Park Drive to the north. The proposed project would be developed on both the east and west side of the future Oak Tree Lane extension. The north branch of Ingram Slough traverses the project site , and flows from the southeast to the north, and easterly as it crosses the future Oak Tree Lane alignment north of the project site.

Proposed Project Components
A total of 302 VLDR units are proposed for 51.61 acres, resulting in a density of 5.85 units per acre, consistent with the maximum allowed 5.9 units per acre for the VLDR designation. The proposed project also includes a 2.08 acre park and recreation center, and approximately 19.9 acres of open space. The layout of the proposed project is shown in Figure 3.

The proposed recreational facility would be located near one of the project entrances, east of the Oak Tree Lane extension. Final design of the building and surrounding amenities has yet to be determined; however, outdoor amenities such as a pool, pickleball courts, bocce ball courts and a pet park are Exhibit 5A

3 anticipated. Outdoor areas would have LED lighting. The recreational center would connect to the network of trails and walkways within the project site, which would ultimately connect with the trails planned throughout the Village 1 plan area.

T
he Stardust project would develop Planning Areas (PA) 21, 49, and 68, portions of Planning Areas 23 and 51 and a landscape corridor (LSC). Under the adopted Specific Plan, PAs 21 and 23 are designated and zoned Village Lower Density Residential (VLDR). This zone allows for 3.0 to 5.9 residential units per acre. PAs 49 and 51 are designated and zoned Village Open Space (VOS). PA 68 is designated and zoned Village Parks and Recreation.

T
he proposed project would develop the project site with land uses and densities that are consistent with the adopted Specific Plan. The acreage for each use would vary slightly from the adopted Specific Plan, as shown in Table 1 and Figure 4. In addition, parcel boundaries would be modified slightly, including the boundaries for the VOS parcels. As a result, there would be a slight reduction in the amount of open space provided—0.13 acres, or less than one percent of total open space within the project site, and less than 0.03 percent of open space within Village 1 as a whole. At the same time, the acreage for Village Parks and Recreation (VPR) would increase by 1.08 acres, more than double the amount provided for in the adopted Specific Plan.

*Under the proposed project, this includes a 0.2-acre lift station and a 0.066-acre public utility easement.

T
he applicant has also provided an alternative layout with the lift station located outside the project area.

Under that alternative, the number of residential units and open space acreage would be unchanged. As shown in Table 2, there would be slight alterations in the VLDR, landscape corridor and the rights-of-way acreages. Because the unit count and open space acreages would be unchanged, and the 0.2 acre lift station would occur offsite, but within the Village 1 Specific Plan area, the environmental effects of these two layouts would be the same.

T
he 302 residences would be single or two story, with two car garages. Floor plans would range in size from 1,800 to 3,500 square feet.

C
irculation
Access to the project site would be provided by the extension of Oak Tree Lane north to SR 193/McBean Park Drive. Because the proposed project is anticipated to be constructed prior to completion of the Oak Tree Lane extension, the project would be responsible for constructing the portion of Oak Tree Lane from the southern boundary of the project site to SR 193/McBean Park Drive. This section of Oak Tree Lane is planned to have single travel lanes in each direction, with bike/NEV lanes and separated sidewalks on each side.

The culvert is anticipated to be 5 feet by 12 feet, subject to final design and approval.

U
tilities
Water, sewer and drainage services will be provided by the City of Lincoln. Under the Village 1 Specific Plan, major water, sewer and dry utility lines will be placed within the Oak Tree Lane right -of-way, connecting to lines in SR 193/McBean Park Drive. The proposed project would install these lines in the portion of Oak Tree Lane constructed within the project site and to the north to the connection with SR 193/McBean Park Drive. In addition, the proposed project would install a water line between the southern project boundary and the terminus of the existing eastern portion of Oak Tree Lane. This line would provide redundancy prior to completion of the entire Oak Tree Lane extension. The Village 1 EIR anticipated that utility lines would be placed in the entire Oak Tree Lane extension; installing the water line in advance of other development in Village 1 and/or completion of the entire Oak Tree Lane extension would not alter the impacts identified in the EIR.

A
sewer lift station is proposed to be installed on the east side of Oak Tree Lane, immediately south of the northern project boundary. It is possible that the City would approve a lift station elsewhere in Village 1 that could serve the Stardust project. An alternative lotting and street configuration is provided in that case.

T
wo Low Impact Development (LID) detention basins would be constructed within the northwestern open space area to collect and treat project stormwater runoff.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Aesthetics and Visual Quality
The Village 1 EIR found that changes in the visual character of the plan area would be a significant and unavoidable impact due to the conversion of open views of agricultural land and oak woodlands to an urban and suburban development (Impact 4.1-2). The proposed Stardust project would not substantially alter the visual impacts of the Specific Plan. The project site is not visible from any roadways other than Stardust Lane. The proposed project would alter existing v iews from Stardust Lane by converting the existing grazing land to urban uses. As required by the Village 1 General Development Plan, building heights in the VLDR zone are limited to two stories or 36 feet. The primary Exhibit 5A
133
The Stardust Project Addendum
J une 2024
5 views from Stardust Lane would be of fencing and a landscape corridor that would be located adjacent to the road. Roofs and second stories may also be visible, and a small view of the project development would be possible from the EVA connection. The Specific Plan provided for single- family homes backing up to Stardust Lane, and the project development must comply with the design standards of the Specific Plan, so the visual character of the proposed project would be consistent with the Specific Plan and Village 1 EIR conclusions.

Impacts Associated with Ground Disturbance
The project proposes a very slight decrease in the amount of land designated open space within the project site—a reduction of 0.13 acres or approximately 0.65 percent. While this would increase the amount of ground disturbance within the project site itself, the amount of Village Open Space acreage within Village 1 as a whole would not be reduced, due to changes in other projects. The 2023 amendment to the Specific Plan increased the amount of Village Open Space by approximately 28 acres, which more than offsets the slight reduction in this project. Furthermore, as discussed in more detail below, the proposed project would comply with mitigation measures and regulations that would reduce the impacts associated with ground disturbance.

A
griculture
The project site is currently used for grazing. The site is designated “Farmland of Local Importance” on the Important Farmland map 2, which is not considered Important Farmland, and is not under a Williamson Act contract. Therefore, development of the project site would not result in the substantial loss of agricultural resources (Impacts 4.2-1 and 4.2-2).

B
iological Resources
Similar to the Village 1 plan area as a whole, most of the Stardust project site consists of non-native annual grassland. Other habitat includes oak savannah in the southwestern portion, with an overstory of blue, live and Valley oaks, riparian, wetlands and other waters. A tributary to Ingram Slough flows through the project area, and the eastern portion of the project site drains directly into Ingram Slough.

Wetlands and other waters include riparian wetland, seasonal swale, seasonal wetland, ditch, oxbow, side channel and perennial drainage. A total of 2.885 acres of wetlands have been mapped within the project site, with an additional 0.648 feet/2,776 feet of other water features. There are no sensitive habitats (e.g., vernal pools) or critical habitat for steelhead or vernal pool fairy shrimp. There are two clusters of elderberry shrubs with a total of four shrubs that were observed onsite in the north-central portion of the project site, near natural drainages. During 2023 surveys, two active egr et/heron rookeries were also observed onsite within grey pine trees. The rookeries are located along the northern and southern project boundaries.
3 A
wetland delineation was verified by the US Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) in 20164. Due to the age of that the delineation, a subsequent delineation has been submitted to the Corps and verification of that map is pending.

T
he project site provides potential habitat for a number of special -status species. Big-scale balsam root, a special-status plant, could occur within annual grasslands and oak savannah. Ahart’s dwarf rush and dwarf downingia could occur within seasonal wetlands. The annual grassland and oak savannah also provide potential foraging habitat for the following special -status bird species -- burrowing owl, grasshopper sparrow, and Swainson’s hawk. Nesting habitat is also present in the project site for these species, and for osprey and white- tailed kite. In addition, a perennial drainage provides potential habitat for western pond turtle. Onsite riparian areas provide potential habitat for California black rail and tricolored blackbird. The elderberry shrubs could provide habitat for Valley 2 City of Lincoln, Draft Environmental Impact for the Village 1 Specific Plan, May 2012, Figure 4.2-1. 3 Shannon Karvonen, Project Manager V/Project Director, Stantec, Stardust Biological Preliminary Resources Summary, February 26, 2024.

ith the exception of the areas in designated Village Open Space, the Stardust project would replace the natural habitats with residential development, streets, recreational uses and associated facilities.

As a result, there would be a loss of wetlands and wetland species (Impacts 4.1-1, 4.4-2, 4.4-15 and

4.4-17 of the EIR), the potential loss of two special-status plant species habitat (Impact 4.4-3), potential loss of western pond turtle and/or degradation of its habitat (Impact 4.4-4), the loss of oak woodlands (Impact 4.4-14) and potential disturbance for nesting habitat for several bird species and foraging habitat for Swainson’s hawk, (Impacts 4.4- 5 through 4.4- 8, 4.4-10 and 4.4- 16). T he Village 1 EIR anticipated development of this area, so the loss of biological resources would not result in new or substantially more sever e impacts on biological resources. In addition, the mitigation measures identified in Section 4.4, Biological Resources, of the EIR, which must be implemented by the Stardust project, would reduce impacts on biological resources to a less-than-significant level. These measures include rare plant, western pond turtle, vernal pool crustacean and nesting bird surveys prior to initiation of ground disturbance, ensuring no net loss of wetland resources (which can be achieved through the US Army Corps of Engineers 404 permit), and compensation for loss of oak woodlands.

I
n lieu of implementing the biological resources mitigation measures, the Stardust applicant could opt to pay fees to the Placer County Conservation Plan (PCCP) for those species and habitats covered by the PCCP . The PCCP is a regional, comprehensive program intended to protect, enhance, and restore natural resources in western Placer County, while streamlining permitting for urban development. The PCCP includes three program components:
• T
he Western Placer County Habitat Conservation Plan and Natural Community Conservation Plan (Plan), a joint habitat conservation plan and natural community conservation plan (HCP/NCCP) that would protect fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats and fulfill the requirements of the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA), and the California Natural Community Conservation Planning Act (NCCPA). • The Western Placer County Aquatic Resources Program (CARP) that would protect streams, wetlands, and other water resources and fulfill the requirements of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and analogous state laws and regulations.
• The Western Placer County In- Lieu Fee Program (ILF Program) that fulfills compensatory mitigation requirements under Section 404 of the CWA.
6 T
he PCCP encompasses approximately 270,000 acres in western Placer County, including the City of Lincoln. It addresses a wide range of habitat and species, including several species each of fish, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. Most of the special-status species that could occur within the project site are covered by the PCCP , including burrowing owl, Swainson’s hawk, western pond turtle, California black rail, tricolored blackbird, vernal pool crustaceans, and Valley elderberry longhorn beetle.
7 The PCCP is also designed to provide for conservation of land scapes and natural communities through establishment of a reserve system, stream protection measures, and wetland conservation with no net loss of wetland values or function. For example, the loss of oak woodlands and/or wetlands could be mitigated through payment of the PCCP fee, which would be used to preserve and/or enhance areas with these habitats.

I
n 2020, the City of Lincoln adopted the Placer County Conservation Plan (PCCP) and made findings 5 Shannon Karvonen, Project Manager V/Project Director, Stantec, Stardust Biological Preliminary Resources Summary, Table 4, February 26, 2024.

7 that the PCCP EIS/EIR adequately addressed the environmental impacts of the PCCP, including the environmental effects of future development, such as Village 1. Therefore, projects that would affect species or habitats covered by the PCCP could mitigate their impacts either by implementing mitigation measures identified during that project’s CEQA process or paying the PCCP fee. For those habitats or species that are not covered by the PCCP, a project would need to implement the applicable CEQA mitigation. In the case of the Stardust p roject, three plant species could be affected (big-scale balsamroot, Ahart’s dwarf rush and dwarf downingia)8 and the PCCP does not address these plants.

Therefore, the project would still need to implement Mitigation Measure 4.4- 3, which addresses rare plant species. Mitigation Measures 4.4-12, which addresses the design of culverts on Ingram Slough, and 4.4-13, which addresses ambient light affecting wildlife, would also need to be implemented even if the applicant paid the PCCP fee.

C
ultural and Paleontological Resources
At the time that the Village 1 EIR was prepared, only portions of the plan area had been surveyed for cultural resources. Mitigation Measures 4.5-1 and 4.5-2 require that surveys for historically significant and archaeological resources be conducted for those areas that had not been previous ly surveyed.

In addition, for those resources that had been previously identified, they should be evaluated for eligibility for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NHRP) and California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR).

A
s required by Mitigation Measures 4.5- 1 and 4.5 -2, in 2019, an evaluation of cultural resources located within the project site was prep ared by Stantec , including a records search and a field verification visit. The entire site was subject to the pedestrian survey, with the exception of a 1.1-acre site due to a drainage and dense vegetation.9 In addition, prior surveys had been conducted for the portion of the Oak Tree Lane extension that would be constructed north of the project site. 10 Resources that were identified in surveys would be preserved as specified in consultation with tribal representatives, consistent with Mitigation Measure 4.5- 2, which addresses tribal consultation and treatment of identified cultural resources.

M
itigation Measure 4.5-2, as revised in September 2023, outlines the process for consultation with California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Village 1 plan area, and that requested notification pursuant to AB 52. The City notified the United Auburn Indian Community (UAIC) of the proposed Stardust project, and the known cultural resources that exist on the project site. Representatives of the UAIC participated in site visits on March 29 and April 16, 2024.

The UAIC subsequently made several recommendations regarding the treatment of certain onsite features, which the applicant agreed to. Agreement with the tribe regarding treatment of tribal cultural resources was reached, and consultation was closed on June 4, 2024.

C
onstruction of the Stardust project would avoid some but not all identified cultural resources. For any site that qualifies as a historical resource or unique archaeological resource, Mitigation Measure

4.5-2 requires that standard professional procedures be implemented in consultation with thos e traditionally and culturally associated with the project site. The standard professional procedures include, but are not limited to, avoidance, protection, written and photographic documentation, or other measures identified in California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 and/or by the tribe. In addition, the Stardust wetland permit will go through the federal Section 106 process, which requires consultation with tribal representatives, and a plan for addressing onsite cultural resources.

The Stardust project would increase the area subject to disturbance by approximately 0.13 acres, so 8 Shannon Karvonen, Project Manager V/Project Director, Stantec, Stardust Biological Preliminary Resources Summary, Table 4, February 26, 2024.

8 the potential to disturb undiscovered archaeological resources and/or paleontological resources would be slightly increased. For areas that would be disturbed, Mitigation Measures 4.5-2 through 4.5-5 would ensure that the resources are protected from harm , evaluated, and handled by qualified professionals.

H
azardous Materials
The EIR identified several potential impacts due to potential contamination, including exposure to soil or groundwater contamination due to past agricultural and other uses (Impacts 4.7-2 and 4.7-4), and/or lead-based paint and asbestos in structures to be demolished (Impact 4.7-3). Mitigation Measure 4.7- 2 requires that a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) be prepared prior to approval of a specific development permit, and that any recommendations of the Phase 1 ESA be implemented.

A
s required by MM 4.7-2(a), a Phase 1 ESA was prepared for the project site. 11 The Phase 1 ESA reported that the project site is vacant, and has been undeveloped since at least 1937. A portion of the project site appears to have been used for agricultural purposes from at least 1962 to 1966

12. The
authors of the Phase 1 ESA recommended that soils in the area where orchards are located be surveyed for the presence of organochlorine pesticides, copper and arsenic, which can be associated with agricultural operations. Mitigation Measure 4.7- 2(b) requires that the recommendations of the Phase 1 ESA be implemented to the satisfaction of the Placer County Department of Environmental Health. A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment was performed. Soil samples were taken and analyzed from 16 locations across the Project site. 13 Several chemicals associated with pesticides were identified, but all were at levels below applicable thresholds for residential exposure. The Phase II ESA concluded that there were no remaining environmental concerns with the site, and that no further study was needed.
14 N
o groundwater wells monitored by the Department of Water Resources were identified on the project site or within a half -mile radius 15. No underground storage tanks or other potentially hazardous features were identified within the project site. For these reasons, construction worker and project occupants would not be exposed to substantial health risks associated with existing contaminated soils.

T
he Village 1 EIR also addressed hazardous materials impacts resulting from the abandoned Titan missile base. The Stardust project site is not located on parcels that are affected by the abandoned missile base, and is therefore not subject to contamination from the base.

B
ecause the Village 1 EIR anticipated that historic uses within the plan area, including the Stardust project site, could contain contaminated soils and hazardous materials, and the Stardust project has already implemented mitigation identified in the EIR, and there are no identified contaminants that would affect human health or the environment, the Stardust project would not alter the severity of impacts related to hazardous materials.

H
ydrology and Water Quality
The amount of acreage that would be developed under the proposed project would be consistent with the Village 1 EIR assumptions. There could be a minute increase in the amount of ground disturbance and impervious surface due to the 0.13-acre reduction in open space. As a result, the proposed project could slightly increase stormwater runoff and therefore potential ly increase flood volume s requiring 11 Universal Engineering Sciences, Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment, Stardust Property, 200 Stardust Lane, Lincoln, Placer County, California, May 19, 2023.

9 storage (Impacts 4.8-1, 4.8-2, 4.8-7 and 4.8-9), as well as the potential degradation of stormwater runoff due to erosion and/or urban contaminants (Impacts 4.8-4 , 4.8-5 and 4.8-9). The increase in runoff would be relatively slight, because the reduction in developable acreage would be slight (only

0.13 acre). Furthermore, the 2023 amendment to the Specific Plan increased the amount of Village Open Space by approximately 28 acres. Therefore, there would still be more open space (and less disturbed land and impervious surface) than assumed in the Village 1 EIR. Furthermore, the mitigation measures identified in Section 4.8, Hydrology and Water Quality, would be required of the Stardust project, and would be adequate to reduce impacts related to water quality, flooding and hydrology to a less-than-significant level.

Land Use
The Stardust project would not alter the potential for land use conflicts within the plan area, because the same types and intensities of uses as provided for in the Specific Plan would be developed (Impact

4.9-1). There would not be, for example, a substantial change in the types of land uses within the project site , or the allowable residential densities and/or commercial square footage. There are agricultural uses immediately east of the project site. For the most part, lands adjacent to the project site are used for rural residential and low-intensity agriculture, such as grazing. Nonetheless, project residents could find some attributes associated with livestock to be a nuisance, such as odors and flies. The Village 1 General Development Plan requires a minimum 20-foot building setback for VLDR parcels adjacent to the agricultural lands to the east. The project also proposes a landscape corridor adjacent to Stardust Lane. The building setback, landscape corridor and Stardust Lane would provide separation between the project site and adjacent agricultural uses. Mitigation Measure 4.9- 1(b) requires homebuyers of residences adjacent to active agricultural operations to be provided information regarding the agricultural operations and potential nuisance activities, including a copy of the Placer County Right -to-Farm Ordinance. This measure would apply to VLDR parcels proposed along the eastern boundary of the plan area, and would ensure that homeowners are aware of the agricultural activities that could occur in their vicinity. This mitigation measure, in combination with the separation between the project site and adjacent agricultural uses , would ensure that the potential conflicts between project residences and adjacent rural areas would continue to be less than significant.

Noise
There are existing residences located along Stardust Lane that would be subjected to construction noise during project development. Mitigation Measure 4.10-2 would reduce impacts associated with construction activities to a less- than-significant level by limiting construction hours, locating staging areas away from residential areas, muffling construction equipment and notifying residents within 300 feet of project site when construction will occur. Because the proposed project would not alter the area being developed, this measure would continue to be adequate to address project construction.

T
he proposed project would not alter traffic generated by the Village 1, so there would be no change in future traffic noise levels (Impacts 4.10-1 and 4.10-4). As shown in Village 1 Draft EIR Table 4.10- 12, the 60 dBA Ldn contour will be approximately 206 feet from the centerline of Oak Tree Lane .

Residents within these contours could be exposed to exterior and interior noise levels that exceed City standards. Mitigation Measure 4.10-5(a) requires that one or more measures be included to reduce noise levels for residences in areas where the external noise levels would exceed 60 dBA Ldn, such as noise barriers, windows with a minimum sound rating of 32 and no exterior wall cavities. These measures would ensure that project residents would not be exposed to unacceptable traffic noise levels.

Traffic, Air Quality, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
T
raffic
Since the Specific Plan was adopted, the CEQA Guidelines have been revised to shift the analysis of traffic impacts from Level of Service (LOS) to Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). After July 1, 2020, EIRs Exhibit 5A
138
The Stardust Project Addendum
J une 2024
10 must analyze a project’s effect on VMT, and LOS can no longer be used as a standard of significance for CEQA purposes. The Village 1 Specific Plan EIR did not address VMT, because level of service was the standard of significance used to evaluate traffic impacts at that time. While changes in level of service are no longer evaluated under CEQA, the City does have General Plan policies that address LOS.

B
ecause the Stardust project would not increase the number of units within the Village 1 plan area, the project would not change the amount of traffic. Consequently, the Stardust project would not alter the conclusions of the EIR with respect to levels of service. In addition, it would not increase the number of vehicle miles traveled associated with the Specific Plan (Section 14 of the Draft EIR). In addition, as required by Mitigation Measure 4.14-7, the Stardust project would contribute its fair share toward the funding of improvements identified as mitigation.

T
he Village 1 Specific Plan EIR also analyzed the effects of the Specific Plan on transit demand (Impact 4.14-5) and pedestrian, bicycle and NEV vehicle use (Impact 4.14- 6). No changes to the provision of transit, bicycle/NEV lanes or pedestrian facilities are proposed by the Stardust project.

Bike/NEV lanes and sidewalks will be provided on the portion of Oak Tree Lane through constructed by the project; therefore, these impacts would continue to be less than significant under the proposed project.

A
ir Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The slight reduction in open space within the project site and the associated increase in the amount of acreage that could be developed could increase the amount of emissions generated during construction (Impact 4.3- 1). This increase would not be enough to substantially increase daily emissions levels. Furthermore, the Village 1 Specific Plan was amended in 2023 to include more open space than assumed in the original EIR. Therefore, the amount of construction anticipated in the EIR would be slightly more than would occur under the 2023 Specific Plan, even with the slight increase associated with the proposed project. Furthermore, project construction would comply with Mitigation Measure 4.3-1, which requires dust control and other measures to reduce air pollutant emissions during construction. Therefore, the short-term significant and unavoidable impact due to construction emissions would not be more severe than identified in the Village 1 EIR.

M
otor vehicle use is one of the major sources of both air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions.

The proposed Stardust project would not alter the total number of dwelling units or the amount of commercial development within the Village 1 plan area. Therefore, the amount of vehicle and other emissions generated would be consistent with the EIR assumptions, and the conclusions of the EIR would not change. (Impacts 4.3-2, 4.3-3, 4.3-5, 4.3-6 and 4.6-1).

Public Services and Utilities
New development within Lincoln is required to provide both preserved open space and traditional parks. The Village 1 Specific Plan includes 40% of open space (732.8 acres) which is consistent with the General Plan open space requirement. In reviewing the appropriate amount of park land within a development project, the City considers the amount of parkland anticipated in the Village 1 Specific Plan, the General Plan park standards, and the unique characteristics of the individual project.

T
he City of Lincoln General Plan establishes a standard of 3 acres of Neighborhood Park, 3 acres of open space and 3 acres of citywide parks per 1,000 residents within any project that is approved subject to a Development Agreement, which is required for this project. The Village 1 Specific Plan adjusted the requirement for neighborhood parks to 2.43 acres per 1,000 residents, due to the large amount of open space provided within Village 1. 16 16 Frayji Design Group, Inc., Village 1 Infrastructure and Facilities Financing Plan (Financing Plan), Volume 2, Infrastructure and Phasing Plan, April 9, 2016, page 32 and Appendix 26.

Exhibit 5A
139
The Stardust Project Addendum
J une 2024
11 The Village 1 Specific Plan establishes the household population (number of persons expected per household) for various residential densities. The assumed household population of low density residential development is approximately 3.6 persons per household17. Given the project proposes a maximum of 302 homes, it is assumed that the Stardust project will have approximately 1,087 residents at build out. Therefore, the Stardust project would be required to provide for 3.3 acres of open space, 3.3 acres of regional park and 2.64 acres of neighborhood park.

T
he project’s obligation for 3.3 acres of open space would be fully met through the preservation of approximately 20 acres of open space on site.

T
he project’s 5.9-acre obligation for neighborhood/community parks would be met through the development of a up to 2 acres of park/recreation facility onsite, and the payment of park fees, based on the credit received for onsite acreage. As required by Mitigation Measure 4.12- 7, these fees would off-set the cost of constructing the neighborhood/community parks planned within the Village 1 plan area, which could include developing the remainder of the lake front in the western portion of the Specific Plan area, other recreational amenities that are adjacent to the Stardust project site, or other park sites.

T
he EIR found that the impacts on o ther public services would be less than significant, which would continue to be the case under the proposed Stardust project.

B
ecause the Stardust project would not alter the total number of residential units or commercial square footage within the Village 1 plan area, and would install infrastructure needed to serve both the project and future Village 1 development, there would be no change in demand for water supply, and generation of wastewater, energy and solid waste (Impacts 4.13-1 through 4.13-12).

CONCLUSION
As indicated in the above analysis, the proposed Stardust project would not result in a new significant impact or an impact that is substantially more severe than what was identified in the Village 1 Specific Plan EIR, and no revisions to the EIR, including mitigation measures, are necessary to address the impacts of the project. Therefore, the proposed Stardust project would not result in any conditions identified in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, and a subsequent or supplemental EIR is not required.

Mitigation Monitoring Program

INTRODUCTION
This section provides the Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) for the Stardust project, pursuant to Section 21081.6 of the California Public Resources Code, which requires public agencies to "adopt a reporting and monitoring program for the changes made to the project or conditions of project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment." A MMP is required for the proposed project because the EIR identified significant adverse impacts, and mitigation measures have been identified to reduce those impacts to less-than-significant levels.

This MMP includes all of the mitigation measures from the Village 1 Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and MMP that are applicable to the Stardust project.

The numbering of the impacts and mitigation measures follows the numbering sequence found in the Village 1 Specific Plan MMP.

Adoption of the MMP shall occur prior to, or concurrently with, adoption of the proposed project for which the program has been developed.

PURPOSE OF THE MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM
The purpose of the MMP is to:
 E
nsure that mitigation measures are implemented;
 P
rovide feedback to agency staff and decision makers about the effectiveness of mitigation m
easures;
 P
rovide learning opportunities for improving mitigation measures on future projects; and  I
dentify the need for enforcement action before irreversible environmental damage occurs.

T
he components of the MMP are addressed briefly below.

I
mpacts: In order to provide context for the mitigation measures and monitoring program, all impacts for which mitigation is required are listed.

M
itigation Measures: The mitigation measures are taken verbatim from the Village 1 MMP.

R
esponsible Entity : This column identifies the entity that will undertake the required action.

Generally, the contractor is named for actions occurring during grading or construction. On- site inspections will be done by City staff.

T
iming/Milestone: Each action must take place during or prior to some part of project development or approval. The timing of actions generally falls into one of the categories shown in the table below.

Exhibit 5B
