IMPACT BEING ADDRESSED: Indirect Impacts on Special-Status Species. The Proposed Project would result in substantial predation among special-status bird and mammal species that breed in the nearby brackish marshes and may forage, in the case of special-status birds, in the Project area. (Impact BIO-2)
Project Mitigation Measure BIO-2.1: Feral Cat Management Program. The Project Sponsor shall implement a feral cat management program, similar to the program developed in conjunction with the Peninsula Humane Society and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals for the East Campus in 2013. Prior to the program being implemented, the program developer shall coordinate with local humane societies and animal service centers to identify facilities able to take cats. The program coordinator shall coordinate with facilities receiving cats to ensure that efforts are made to attempt to reunite any inadvertently trapped pet cat with its owners.

For one week every 3 months (i.e., each quarter), three live trap cages, designed to trap domestic cats, shall be placed around the perimeter of the main Project Site in locations where feral cats are likely to prey upon native wildlife species. The traps shall be deployed and maintained by a qualified trapping professional (such as an animal management company or other trained and experienced animal or wildlife professional). The duration of traps shall be coordinated with the specified intake facility so that the facility is prepared and open to receive trapped cats.

Each trap cage shall be monitored and maintained on a daily basis during the week when traps have been set to determine whether a cat has been caught and whether the trap has
inadvertently captured a non-target species (e.g. pet cat or Implement a feral

wildlife). Traps shall not be deployed during extreme weather (e.g., heat, cold, rain). Traps shall contain water and be at least partially covered where feasible to attempt to reduce stress of trapped animals.

If a cat is caught, the qualified professional shall transport the trapped cat as soon as practicable to the local humane society or animal service center that accepts trapped cats. If an animal other than a feral cat is caught in one of the traps, such as a suspected pet cat (e.g. cat with a collar) or wildlife, it shall be released immediately at the trap location.

Because there are residences within and adjacent to the Project Site and the area where the Feral Cat Management Program will take place, efforts will be taken to ensure that residences are aware of the program to avoid inadvertent trapping and removal of pet cats. Visible signage shall be installed a week in advance of trapping and shall remain installed for the duration of trapping.

The signs will have contact information should residents have questions or concerns.

IMPACT BEING ADDRESSED: Impacts on Riparian Habitat and Other Sensitive Natural Communities. Project demolition and construction would affect riparian habitat and other sensitive natural communities. (Impact BIO-3) Project Mitigation Measure BIO-3.1: Avoid and Minimize
Impacts on Riparian Habitat and Other Sensitive Natural Communities. To the extent feasible, construction activities should avoid or minimize the removal of wetland vegetation or the placement of fill in the wetlands immediately north and northeast of the Project Site. If all direct impacts on wetlands (i.e., vegetation removal, loss, and fill) are avoided, Mitigation Measures BIO-3.2 and BIO-3.3 would not need to be
implemented. However, if any wetland vegetation needs to be removed from the wetlands, or any fill needs to be placed in the wetlands, or post-construction conditions result in vegetation loss, Mitigation Measure BIO-3.2 (and Mitigation Measure BIO-3.3 if permanent impacts would occur) shall be implemented.

Project Mitigation Measure BIO-3.2: In-Situ Restoration of Temporary Impacts. If impacts on the wetlands immediately north of the Project Site are temporary, resulting in vegetation removal or temporary fill within the wetland but no
permanent fill, then the wetland area shall be restored by the Project Sponsor following construction. The herbaceous
seasonal wetlands are likely to become recolonized easily without the need for seeding and planting as long as their existing hydrology and topography are restored following temporary impacts. There is some potential for the arroyo willow clumps in the isolated forested wetland to regrow from cut stumps. In such a case, the in-situ restoration shall involve simply protecting the area with exclusion fencing following construction to allow for regrowth of vegetation.

For temporary impacts involving removed willow root masses where in-situ restoration is still an option, a more detailed restoration plan shall be developed. The mitigation shall, at a minimum, achieve no net loss of wetland acreage (i.e.,
jurisdictional wetlands lost to fill shall be replaced through the creation or restoration of wetland habitat of the same type as the affected habitat [either forested or herbaceous seasonal] at a minimum ratio of 1:1 on an acreage basis or as otherwise required by any state or federal permitting agencies) or ecological functions and values through the restoration and enhancement of the affected wetlands to a level equal to or greater than the baseline condition of the existing wetlands.

An in-situ restoration approach could involve salvaging wetland plant material prior to construction (e.g., willow cuttings or willow clumps, in the case of the isolated forested wetland) and then replanting the material if the seasonal timing of construction is appropriate. United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and/or Regional Water Quality Control Boards (RWQCB) approvals may be required to
authorize temporary impacts on these features.

Project Mitigation Measure BIO-3.3: Provide Compensatory Mitigation. If any permanent fill or permanent loss of the isolated forested wetland or the herbaceous seasonal
wetlands occurs, the Project Sponsor shall provide new
wetland habitat of the same type (either forested or
herbaceous seasonal) to offset this impact, either through the creation, enhancement, or restoration of wetlands in an appropriate location or through the purchase of mitigation credits from a USACE- or RWQCB-approved wetland
mitigation bank. The purchase of such credits shall serve as full mitigation for impacts on these wetland features.3 If Project-specific creation, enhancement, or restoration of wetland habitat is implemented, habitat shall be restored or created at a minimum ratio of 2:1 (compensation: impact) on an acreage basis or as otherwise required by any state or federal permitting agencies. This ratio is not higher because of the relatively low quality of the wetlands on the Project Site relative to the more extensive, less fragmented wetlands elsewhere in the region, and it is not lower because of the temporal loss of wetland functions and values that would result from the lag between impacts on the wetlands and maturation of the mitigation habitat. USACE and/or RWQCB approvals may be required to authorize permanent impacts on this feature.

To the extent that compensatory mitigation is not provided by purchasing mitigation credits from a USACE- or RWQCBapproved wetland mitigation bank, then, if feasible, compensation shall be provided by creating, enhancing, or restoring wetland habitat so as to achieve the 2:1 ratio somewhere in San Mateo County or as otherwise required by any state or federal permitting agencies.

(Impact BIO-5) Project Mitigation Measure BIO-5.1: Avoidance and Preconstruction Surveys for Nesting Migratory Birds. The Project Sponsor shall implement the following measures to reduce impacts on nesting migratory birds:
• To the extent feasible, construction activities shall be scheduled to avoid the nesting season. If construction
activities are scheduled to take place outside the nesting season, all impacts on nesting birds protected under the MBTA and California Fish and Game Code will be avoided.

The nesting season for most birds in San Mateo County
extends from February 1 through August 31.
• If it is not possible to schedule construction activities between September 1 and January 31, then
preconstruction surveys for nesting birds shall be
conducted by a qualified ornithologist to ensure that no nests of migratory birds will be disturbed during Project implementation. Surveys shall be conducted no more than 7 days prior to the initiation of construction activities for each construction phase. During this survey, the
ornithologist shall inspect all trees and other potential nesting habitats (e.g., trees, shrubs, California annual grasslands, buildings) in and immediately adjacent to the impact areas for migratory bird nests.

• If an active nest is found within trees or other potential nesting habitats that would be disturbed by construction activities, a construction-free buffer zone (typically 300 feet for raptors and 100 feet for other species) will be established around the nest to ensure that species that are protected under the MBTA and California Fish and Game
Code will not be disturbed during Project implementation.

The ornithologist shall determine the extent of the buffer. • If construction activities will not be initiated until after the start of the nesting season, all potential nesting
substrates (e.g., bushes, trees, grasses, and other
vegetation) that are scheduled to be removed by the
Proposed Project may be removed prior to the start of the nesting season (i.e., prior to February 1). This would
preclude the initiation of nests in this vegetation and prevent any potential delay for the Proposed Project
because of the presence of active nests in these substrates.

Project Mitigation Measure BIO-5.2: Atrium Bird-safe Design Requirements. The Project Sponsor shall implement the
following measures to reduce impacts on migratory birds due to construction of the atrium:
• The Project Sponsor shall treat 100 percent of the glazing on the dome-shaped portions of the atrium’s façades (i.e., all areas of the north façade and all areas of the south façade above the Elevated Park) with a bird-safe glazing treatment to reduce the frequency of collisions. This

4 A material’s Threat Factor, as assigned by the American Bird Conservancy, refers to the level of danger posed to birds, based on the birds’ ability to perceive the material as an obstruction, as tested using a “tunnel” protocol (a standardized test that uses wild birds to determine the relative effectiveness of various products at deterring bird collisions). The higher the Threat Factor, the greater the risk that collisions will occur. An opaque material will have a Threat Factor of 0, and a completely transparent material will have a Threat Factor of 100. Threat Factors for many commercially available façade materials can be found at https://abcbirds.org/wp-content/ uploads/2021/01/Masterspreadsheet-1-25-2021.xlsx.

equivalent to the percent reduction in collisions that a glazing product provides. However, products with lower
Threat Factors result in fewer bird collisions.
• The Project Sponsor shall treat 100 percent of the glazing on the atrium’s east and west façades with a bird-safe
glazing treatment to reduce the frequency of collisions.

This glazing shall have a Threat Factor of 15 or less.
• Interior trees and woody shrubs shall be set back from the atrium’s east, west, and non-sloped (i.e.,
vertical/perpendicular to the ground) portions of the
south façades by at least 50 feet to reduce the potential for collisions with these facades due to the visibility of interior trees. This 50-foot distance is greater than the distance used in the project design for the north and
sloped portions of the south facades (e.g., 20-25 feet for the north façade) due to the vertical nature of the east, west, and non-sloped portion of the south façades, as
opposed to the articulated nature of the north and sloped portions of the south façades (which is expected to reduce the visibility of internal vegetation to some extent), as well as the direct line-of-sight views between interior and exterior vegetation through the east, west, and non-sloped portions of the south façades compared to the north
façade (where internal vegetation is elevated above
exterior vegetation). Interior trees and shrubs that are not visible through the east, west, and south façades may be planted closer than 50 feet to glass façades.

substantial variations in the effectiveness of bird-safe glazing, a qualified biologist will review physical samples of all glazing to be used on the atrium to confirm that the bird-safe frit will be visible to birds under various lighting conditions and expected to be effective.

• The Project Sponsor shall monitor bird collisions around the atrium for a minimum of 2 years following
construction to identify any collision “hot spots” (i.e., areas where collisions occur repeatedly). A monitoring
plan for the atrium shall be developed by a qualified
biologist and shall include focused surveys for bird
collisions from late April through May (spring migration), September through October (fall migration), and midNovember through mid-January (winter) to maximize the possibility of detecting bird collisions that might occur.

Surveys of the atrium shall be conducted daily for 3 weeks during each of these periods (i.e., 21 consecutive days during each season, for a total of 63 surveys per year). In addition, for the 2-year monitoring period, surveys of the atrium shall be conducted the day following nighttime
events during which temporary lighting exceed would
typical levels (i.e., levels specified in the International Dark-Sky Association’s defined lighting zone, LZ-2
[Moderate Ambient], from dusk until 10:00 p.m., or 30
percent below these levels from 10:00 p.m. to midnight).

The applicant can assign responsibility for tracking events and notifying the biologist when a survey is needed to a designated individual who is involved in the planning and scheduling of atrium events. The timing of the 63 seasonal surveys (e.g., morning or afternoon) shall vary on the
different days to the extent feasible; surveys conducted specifically to follow nighttime events shall be conducted in the early morning.
• At a frequency of no less than every 6 months, a qualified biologist shall review the bird collision data for the atrium in consultation with the City to determine whether any
potential hot spots are present (i.e., if collisions have occurred repeatedly at the same location). A “potential hot spot” is defined as a cluster of three or more collisions that Resolution No. XXXX

occur within one of the 3-week monitoring periods
described above at a given location on the atrium. The
“location” shall be identified by the qualified biologist as makes sense for the observed collision pattern, and may consist of a single pane of glass, an area of glass adjacent to a landscape tree or light fixture, the 8,990-square-foot vertical façade beneath the Elevated Park, the façade
adjacent to the vegetation at the Elevated Park, the
atrium’s east façade, the atrium’s west façade, or another defined area where the collision pattern is observed.
“Location” shall be defined based on observations of (1) collision patterns and (2) the architectural, lighting, and/or landscape features that contributed to the
collisions and not arbitrarily determined (e.g., by
assigning random grids). If any such potential hot spots are found, the qualified biologist shall provide an opinion as to whether the potential hot spots will affect bird
populations over the long term to the point that additional measures (e.g., light adjustments, planting of vegetation) will be needed to reduce the frequency of bird strikes at the hot spot location in order to reduce impacts to a lessthan-significant level under CEQA (i.e., whether it constitutes an actual “hotspot”). This determination shall be based on the number of birds and the species of birds that collide with the atrium over the monitoring period. In addition, a “hotspot” is automatically defined if a cluster of five or more collisions are identified at a given “location” on the atrium within one of the three-week monitoring
periods described above. If a hotspot is identified,
additional measures will be implemented at the potential hotspot location at the atrium; these may include one or more of the following options in the area of the hotspot depending on the cause of the collisions:

Project Mitigation Measure BIO-5.3: Lighting Design
Requirements. The Project Sponsor shall prepare a lighting design plan that incorporates and implements the following measures to reduce lighting impacts on migratory birds. Prior to implementation of the lighting design plan, a qualified biologist shall review the final lighting design plan to confirm that the required measures are incorporated:
• To the maximum extent feasible, up-lighting (i.e., lighting that projects upward above the fixture) shall be avoided in the Project design. All lighting shall be fully shielded to prevent illumination from shining upward above the
fixture. If up-lighting cannot be avoided in the Project design, up-lights shall be shielded and/or directed such that no luminance projects above/beyond the objects at
which they are directed (e.g., trees and buildings) and no light shines directly into the eyes of a bird flying above the object. If the objects themselves can be used to shield the lights from the sky beyond, no substantial adverse effects on migrating birds are anticipated.
• All lighting shall be fully shielded to prevent it from shining outward and toward Bay habitats to the north. No light trespass shall be permitted more than 80 feet
beyond the Project Site’s northern property line (i.e., beyond the Dumbarton Rail Corridor).
• With respect to exterior lighting in the northern portion of the Project Site (i.e., areas north of Main Street and Office Buildings 03 and 05 surrounding the hotel, Town Square
retail pavilion, Office Building 04, event building, and North Garage), and with respect to interior portions of the atrium, exterior lighting shall be minimized (i.e., outdoor lumens shall be reduced by at least 30 percent, consistent with recommendations from the International Dark-Sky

IMPACT BEING ADDRESSED: Cumulative Geology and Soil Impacts. Cumulative development would result in a less than significant cumulative impact to geology, soils, and seismicity, and thus the Proposed Project would not be a cumulatively considerable contributor to any significant cumulative impact to geology, soils, and seismicity. Cumulative development would result in a less-than-significant cumulative impact with mitigation to paleontological resources and the Proposed Project would not be a cumulatively considerable contributor to any significant cumulative impact.

IMPACT BEING ADDRESSED: Water Quality. The Proposed Project could violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface water or groundwater quality. (Impact HY-1) Project Mitigation Measure HY-1.1: Implement Construction Dewatering Treatment (if necessary). If dewatering is needed to complete the Proposed Project, and if water from dewatering is discharged to a storm drain or surface water body, dewatering treatment may be necessary if groundwater exceeding water quality standards is encountered during excavation. Because there is potential for groundwater to be contaminated with VOCs or fuel products at the Project Site, the Project Sponsor would be required to comply with the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Board’s VOC and Fuel General Permit (Order No. R2-2018-0050) if groundwater exceeding water quality standards is

If dewatering requires discharges to the storm drain system or other water bodies, the water shall be pumped to a tank and tested using grab samples and sent to a certified laboratory for analysis. If it is found that the water does not meet water quality standards, it shall be treated as necessary prior to discharge so that all applicable water quality objectives (as noted in Table

3.11-2) are met or it shall be hauled offsite instead for treatment and disposed of at an appropriate waste treatment facility that is permitted to receive such water. The water treatment methods selected shall remove contaminants in the groundwater to meet discharge permit requirements while achieving local and state requirements, subject to approval by the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Board. Methods may include retaining
dewatering effluent until particulate matter has settled before discharging it or using infiltration areas, filtration techniques, or other means. The contractor shall perform routine inspections of the construction area to verify that water quality control measures are properly implemented and maintained, observe the water (i.e., check for discoloration or an oily sheen), and perform other sampling and reporting activities prior to discharge. The final selection of water quality control measures shall be submitted in a report to the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Board for approval prior to construction. If the results from the groundwater laboratory do not meet water quality standards and the identified water treatment measures cannot ensure that treatment meets all standards for receiving water quality, then the water shall be hauled offsite instead for treatment and disposal at an appropriate waste treatment facility that is permitted to receive such water.

o Tree root balls from trees removed within the Core
boundary that have roots extending within an area 24
inches from the culturally affected soil layer shall be left in place. Stumps may be ground flat with the existing
grade.
o Clearing of surface vegetation within the Core boundary shall be performed through hand grubbing.
o Ground surface preparation prior to fill placement
within the Core boundary shall use relatively light
equipment (3,000 to 5,000 pounds), such as a walkbehind roller, to densify the six-inch-thick protection material. The use of relatively light equipment reduces potential for densification below the buffer zone.
o A layer of geogrid reinforcement shall be placed over the prepared ground surface within the Core boundary.

Geogrid shall consist of a triaxial grid (e.g., TX140 or approved equivalent). A second layer of geogrid shall be placed to reinforce the engineered fill approximately 24 inches above the base geogrid layer. Geogrid shall be
installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s
specifications. After placement of the geogrid, there shall be no soil disturbance in the Core below the top layer of geogrid.
o Once the six-inch-thick protection layer has been

o To protect the culturally affected soil in the Core,
construction and other transitory vehicle traffic (with the exception of the equipment necessary to place and
compact the engineered fill) shall not be permitted
over the Core until after engineered fill placement is
complete to provide a buffer between mound material
and concentrated vehicle loads. Once fill placement is
complete, the culturally affected soil will be protected, but construction vehicles and construction equipment

WHEREAS, after notice having been lawfully given, a public hearing was scheduled and held before the City Council on _______________, 2022, to review and consider the Project, including the “A” Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the main Project Site, whereat all persons interested therein might appear and be heard; and
ATTACHMENT D Page G-2.159
WHEREAS, the City Council, having fully reviewed, considered, and evaluated all the testimony and evidence submitted in this matter, voted affirmatively to approve the “A” Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the main Project Site.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council finds the foregoing recitals are true and correct, and they are hereby incorporated by reference into this Resolution.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Menlo Park hereby approves the “A” Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the main Project Site subject to conditions (Exhibit A), and subject to final approval of the rezoning for the Project. This approval is pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act and City of Menlo Park Municipal Code Section 15.20.050:

1. The proposed “A” Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the main Project Site is technically correct and in compliance with all applicable State regulations, City General Plan, Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances, and the State Subdivision Map Act.

2. The proposed “A” Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for the main Project Site, including the contemplated design and improvements, is consistent with applicable General Plan goals and policies, in particular the goals for the Bayfront Area set forth in the General Plan Update (“ConnectMenlo”). The Project is consistent with the land use designations described in the General Plan and would be consistent with City General Plan policies as well as City Zoning Ordinance requirements for master-planned projects at the proposed density and for the types of use.

3. The Project Site is physically suitable for the proposed master-planned development, including the proposed density of development, and the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The Project is consistent with the density and uses for the site set forth in the General Plan. The Project Site is in a heavily urbanized area of the City currently occupied by developed/landscaped areas that include various urban uses and does not include any aquatic habitat. The Project would not cause substantial environmental damage to the already disturbed Project Site and would not substantially injure the limited wildlife that access the site or their habitat.

4. The design of the subdivision or types of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health or safety problems. The Project would comply with General Plan goals and policies, City Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances, and other applicable regulations designed to prevent serious health or safety problems.

5. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements does not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision because alternate easements for access or use will be provided that are substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public.

6. The Project is not subject to flood and inundation hazards and is not located within a slide area. The Project Site is located within the 100-year flood hazard zone. However, the contemplated Project design and improvements will be elevated so as to mitigate flood hazards, and the Project would comply with applicable requirements designed to mitigate flood hazards and address future sea level rise.

SEVERABILITY
If any term, provision, or portion of these findings or the application of these findings to a particular situation is held by a court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these findings, or their application to other actions related to the Project, shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by the City.

APPROVING A CONDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR THE WILLOW

VILLAGE MASTER PLAN PROJECT
The City Council of the City of Menlo Park does ordain as follows:

SECTION 1.

The City Council of the City of Menlo Park hereby finds and declares as follows:

A. The City received an application requesting to redevelop an approximately 59-acre industrial site (the “main Project Site”) plus three parcels (within two sites) west of Willow Road (the “Hamilton Parcels” and collectively, with the main Project Site, the “Project Site”) as a mixeduse development consisting of up to 1.6 million square feet of office and accessory uses (a maximum of 1,250,000 square feet for office uses and the balance for accessory uses), up to 1,730 multifamily dwelling units, up to 200,000 square feet of retail uses, an up to 193- room hotel, and associated open space and infrastructure (the “Project”).

B. Amendment of the City zoning map is necessary to modify the circulation plan with regard to the locations for new street connections to the surrounding roadway network as well as the locations of public rights-of-way and paseos and the inclusion of multi-use pathways within the main Project Site as shown in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

C. Rezoning of the main Project Site as shown in Exhibit A is necessary to add a conditional development (“X”) combining district, thereby allowing special regulations and conditions to be added at the main Project Site (combined with the base O-B and R-MU-B regulations) as part of the proposed Project.

D. The Project is eligible for a Conditional Development Permit under Menlo Park Municipal Code section 16.82.055(1) in that the main Project Site is more than one acre and is not located in the SP-ECR/D district.

E. Approving the Conditional Development Permit is necessary to authorize development of the Project on the main Project Site, including variants of the Project, including to authorize certain modifications to the requirements of the O and R-MU zoning districts for the Project in accordance with Municipal Code Section 16.82.050, authorize a master planned project in accordance with Municipal Code Sections 16.43.055 and 16.45.55, authorize bonus level development and require the provision of community amenities in accordance with Municipal Code Sections 16.43.060 through .070 and 16.45.60 through 70, approve uses identified in the Conditional Development Permit in accordance with Menlo Park Municipal Code sections 16.43.020 through .040, 16.45.020 through .040, and 16.78.030, approve waivers to Bird Friendly Design requirements pursuant to Municipal Code Sections 16.43.140(6) and

16.45.130(6), approve transportation demand management plans in accordance with Municipal Code Sections 16.43.100 and 16.45.90, establish a procedure for future consideration and approval of a Master Sign Program to establish signage standards and guidelines, and approve an exception to the unbundled parking requirement pursuant to Municipal Code Section 16.45.080(1).

F. The proposed amendment to the City zoning map and rezoning of the main Project Site, as shown in Exhibit A, as well as the approval of the Conditional Development Permit, would promote a mixed-use live/work/play environment through the inclusion of multifamily housing, including affordable residential units, along with office, retail, hotel and recreational uses at the density and intensity envisioned in the ConnectMenlo General Plan (“General Plan”).

ATTACHMENT F Page G-2.179
G. The proposed amendment of the City zoning map and rezoning of the main Project Site, as shown in Exhibit A, as well as the Conditional Development Permit are consistent with the General Plan, including the land use designations for the main Project Site.

SECTION 2.

An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the Project and certified by the City Council on _______________, 2022 (SCH# 2019090428), in accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines. Findings and a statement of overriding considerations were adopted by the City Council on _______________, 2022, by Resolution No. ______, and are incorporated herein by this reference. The analysis in the Project EIR tiered from the ConnectMenlo Final EIR, as appropriate and as further described in each environmental topic section in the EIR.

SECTION 3.

The Planning Commission of the City of Menlo Park (the “Planning Commission”) held a duly noticed public hearing on October 24, 2022 and continued to November 3, 2022, to review and consider the Project, including the proposed amendment to the zoning map and the rezoning of the main Project Site, as shown on Exhibit A, and the Conditional Development Permit, whereat all interested persons had the opportunity to appear and comment.

The Planning Commission, having fully reviewed, considered, and evaluated all the testimony and evidence submitted in this matter, voted affirmatively to recommend to the City Council of the City of Menlo Park (the “City Council”) to approve the Project with recommended modifications, including the proposed amendment to the zoning map and the rezoning of the main Project Site, as shown on Exhibit A, as well as the Conditional Development Permit. In considering the Project, the Planning Commission considered and gave due regard to the nature and condition of all adjacent uses and structures and the impact of the Project thereon, and in relation to the effect upon the immediate neighborhood and the City. In accordance with Municipal Code Sections 16.82.030, 16.78.020, and 16.82.440, the Planning Commission found that approval of the Conditional Development Permit, including all uses permitted therein, would be consistent with the ConnectMenlo General Plan and would not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the Project, would not be unreasonably incompatible with uses permitted in surrounding areas, and would not be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. The diesel emergency generators would meet the requirements of all reviewing and permitting agencies. The expanded construction hours include requirements to limit noise generating activities outside of the typical construction hours unless determined by the Building and Planning Divisions that an exception for specific activities is necessary (e.g. offsite evening/night work or other on-site activities that cannot occur during the typical construction hours). The Planning Commission further found that the public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of licenses to sell alcohol contemplated by the Conditional Development Permit and that the outdoor seating contemplated by the Conditional Development Permit would maintain unimpeded pedestrian access on the public right-of-way.

SECTION 5.

The City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on _____________, 2022, to review and consider the Project, including the proposed amendment to the zoning map and the rezoning of the main Project Site, as shown in Exhibit A, as well as the Conditional Development Permit, whereat all interested persons had the opportunity to appear and comment.

The City Council further finds that the public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of licenses to sell alcohol contemplated by the Conditional Development Permit, and that the outdoor seating contemplated by the Conditional Development Permit would maintain unimpeded pedestrian access on the public right-of-way.

SECTION 7.

The zoning map of the City of Menlo Park is hereby amended to modify the circulation plan with regard to the locations for new street connections to the surrounding roadway network as well as the location of public rights-of-way and paseos, and the inclusion of multi-use pathways, within the main Project Site, as shown in Exhibit A.

SECTION 8.

The zoning map of the City of Menlo Park is hereby amended such that certain real properties shown in Exhibit A are rezoned to add a conditional development (“X”) combining district.

Specifically, the parcels identified in Exhibit B are rezoned to O-B-X to add an X combining district; the parcels identified in Exhibit C are rezoned to R-MU-B-X to add an X combining district. This X combining district is consistent with the General Plan, which allows the uses permitted in the combining district at the density and intensity proposed and encourages the type of live/work/play environment promoted by the X combining district in the Bayfront Area.

SECTION 9.

The Conditional Development Permit (Exhibit D) is hereby approved, authorizing development of the Project on the main Project Site. The Conditional Development Permit is consistent with the General Plan, which allows the uses permitted in the O-B-X and R-MU-B-X districts at the density and intensity proposed and encourages the type of live/work/play environment promoted by the X combining districts in the Bayfront area. Pursuant to Menlo Park Municipal Code section 16.56.030, the Conditional Development Permit establishes development regulations for the main Project Site, and the number of dwelling units, floor area ratio, and floor area limit authorized thereunder do not exceed the development regulations set forth in the O-B and RMU-B districts. The Conditional Development Permit, including all uses permitted therein, would not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the Project, would not be unreasonably incompatible with uses permitted in surrounding areas, and would not be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City SECTION 10. The Conditional Development Permit (Exhibit D) approves:

Ordinance No. XXXX

Page 3 of 70 ends

1) a master planned development that allows residential density, floor area ratio, and open space requirements at the bonus level to be calculated in the aggregate across the site but at levels which do not exceed what would be permitted if the site were developed in accordance with the O-B-X and R-MU-B-X districts, pursuant to Menlo Park Municipal Code sections 16.43.055 and 16.45.055;
2) bonus level development on the main Project Site and community amenities in accordance with the Development Agreement between City and Applicant, as well as Menlo Park Municipal Code sections 16.43.060, 16.45.060, 16.43.070, and 16.45.070; 3) all uses identified in the Conditional Development Permit in accordance with the terms thereunder and Menlo Park Municipal Code sections 16.43.020 through .040, 16.45.020 through .040, and 16.78.030;
4) waivers to Bird Safe Design requirements pursuant to Menlo Park Municipal Code sections

16.43.140(6)(H) and 16.45.130(6)(H) as provided in the Conditional Development Permit; 5) modifications to the requirements of the O-B and R-MU districts identified in the Conditional Development Permit to secure special benefits possible through comprehensive planning of large development, to allow relief from the monotony of standard development, and to permit the application of new and desirable development techniques, pursuant to Menlo Park Municipal Code section 16.82.050;
6) the transportation demand management plans identified in the Conditional Development Permit pursuant to Menlo Park Municipal Code sections 16.43.100 and 16.45.090; 7) all variants of the Project as identified in the Conditional Development Permit, including the No Willow Road Tunnel Variant, No Hamilton Avenue Realignment Variant, and Onsite Recycled Water Variant, which modify certain features or aspects of the Project based upon the election of the applicant or upon the potential action or inaction of agencies other than the City or of property owners outside the main Project Site; 8) establishment of a procedure for future consideration and approval of a Master Sign Program by the Planning Commission to establish signage standards and guidelines; and 9) an exception to the unbundled parking requirement pursuant to Municipal Code Section

16.45.080(1) for the Project’s affordable units.
10) allowance for expanded construction work hours, provided the construction activities comply with the noise limitations set forth in Chapter 8.06 (Noise) of the Municipal Code and mitigation measures Modified ConnectMenlo NOISE-1c, NOI-1.1 and NOI-1.2, unless determined by the Building and Planning Divisions that an exception for specific activities is necessary (e.g. offsite evening/night work or other on-site activities that cannot occur during the typical construction hours). Noise is allowed to exceed the City’s 85 decibel at 50 foot for any one piece of equipment requirement for construction equipment such as pile drivers, subject to compliance with Modified ConnectMenlo NOISE-1c, NOI-1.1 and NOI-1.2 in the EIR.

SECTION 11.

This ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days after the date of its adoption. Within fifteen (15) days of its adoption, the ordinance shall be posted in three (3) public places within the City of Menlo Park, and the ordinance, or a summary of the ordinance prepared by the City Attorney, shall be published in a local newspaper used to publish official notices for the City of Menlo Park prior to the effective date.

SEVERABILITY
If any term, provision, or portion of these findings or the application of these findings to a particular situation is held by a court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these findings, or their application to other actions related to the Project, shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by the City.

14. OFF SITE IMPROVEMENTS

14.1. Transportation Impact Fee (“TIF”): The current estimated total transportation impact fee based on the maximum development potential is $39,728,599.82 (subject to adjustments for the actual proposed development) ("TIF Obligation”). The Applicant shall complete off-site circulation improvements identified as the responsibility of the Project through the TIA and included in the TIF (“TIF In Lieu Improvements”) in lieu of paying the TIF. The City and Applicant shall establish the estimated cost of the TIF In Lieu Improvements prior to issuance of the first building permit. The TIF In Lieu Improvements shall reduce the TIF Obligation dollar for dollar. In the event the estimated cost of the TIF In Lieu Improvements is less than the TIF Obligation, the difference will be prorated across all buildings on the Project Site and paid at the time of building permit issuance for each building. Credit for existing buildings will be allocated by location of the new building. The TIF rates are subject to adjustment on July 1st of each year based on the ENR Construction Cost Index % for San Francisco. In the event that another development project is also obligated to construct the improvement and undertakes construction of the improvement, the Applicant would not be credited for said improvement.

14.2. Applicant shall perform, construct and complete, at the Applicant’s own expense, the transportation improvements in Sections 14.5 and 14.6, prior to issuance of the first certificate of occupancy for the Project.

14.3. To determine the estimated TIF In Lieu Improvements cost, the Applicant shall submit detailed estimates of costs, including design, engineering, and permitting costs, to the Director of Public Works or designee of said transportation improvements.

46 Pursuant to MPMC 13.26.80 the Applicant shall be entitled to credit and/or reimbursement for said transportation improvements.

14.4. Should the final expenses for the TIF In Lieu Improvements exceed the Project estimated TIF payment (determined in 14.1) the TIF Obligation would be adjusted accordingly. If the final expenses (e.g. actual cost) for the TIF In lieu Improvements included in the City’s TIF program exceed the Project’s TIF Obligation, the City and the Applicant shall enter into a reimbursement agreement, which will provide for the Applicant to be reimbursed by the City from available TIF revenues. The reimbursement of the TIF would be made, within 180 days of submittal of the actual cost documentation from the applicant, subject to review and acceptance of the cost documentation by the Public Works Director.

14.5. TIF In Lieu Improvements:

14.5.1. Willow Road and Bay Road – The TIF proposes to modify the southbound approach at this intersection to two left-turn lanes and one right-turn lane and to modify the westbound approach to add a right-turn lane. With these improvements under project conditions, the critical movement delay at the local approach would be reduced to lower than no project conditions. To ensure safe bicycle and pedestrian movements, the project would be required to construct the right turn lane, separated bikeway or other City approved bikeway and pedestrian improvements, and associated signal modifications. This improvement would address the adverse effect on the intersection due to project traffic. This improvement requires Caltrans approval. The Applicant shall construct the improvement prior to certificate of occupancy of the first building on the main Project Site. If Caltrans approval has not been obtained or the intersection improvements have not been completed prior to certificate of occupancy of the first building on the main Project Site, but the Applicant demonstrates that it has worked diligently to pursue agency approvals and completion of construction to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works or designee, the Applicant shall continue to pursue approval and construction for a period of five years from the date of issuance of the first vertical construction building permit. If the Applicant continues to work diligently to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works or designee, but has not yet obtained approval or been able to construct the improvement, then the Applicant shall be relieved of responsibility to construct the improvement and the Applicant shall submit the TIF in Lieu costs subject to any increases based on the ENR Construction Cost Index % for San Francisco.
