March 21, 2023
Planning & Zoning Permit No. 20-580-06 (Ordinance Amendment) Joe Pearson II, Planning Manager
Maureen Tamuri, Interim Community Development Director
669
• On January 19, 2023, the Commission recommended approval of the Ordinance to permit Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the City to City Council with various recommended amendments. • The request before the City Council only sets the minimum and maximum standards.
• Future development proposals would require a Special Use Permit and Development Agreement.
• Staff continues to recommend the approval of the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards as presented and recommended to the Commission, with the exception of reducing the number of potential billboards.

Executive Summary
2 670
Project Description
• A request to allow for amendments to Article IX. Advertising Signs of the Oxnard City Code to permit Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards on parcels designated as commercial, industrial, or public facilities within 400 feet of the U.S. 101 right-of-way within the City of Oxnard.
3 671
Background - Exclusive Negotiation Agreements (ENA)
4 • On June 18, 2019, the City Council approved and authorized the Mayor to execute Exclusive Negotiation Agreements (ENAs) with Clear Channel Outdoor, LLC and another with Outfront Foster Interstate, LLC -- both for potential digital billboard sites.
• Under the terms of the ENAs, both companies were given the exclusive right to negotiate with the City for an initial six-month period, and two additional six-month terms if the projects were being diligently pursued by the parties. • On June 7, 2022, the City Council determined that significant enough progress had been made to amend the ENAs, to grant another 6 months (until June 2023), as well as provided the City Manager with authority to extend the ENAs for two additional six-month terms if the projects are being diligently pursued by the parties. 672
Background - Existing Billboard Regulations
5 • The City currently allows for billboards in the form of Off-site advertising signs throughout the City in General Commercial (C-2), Commercial Manufacturing (C-M), Limited Manufacturing (M-L), Light Manufacturing (M-1), and Heavy Manufacturing (M-2) zones pursuant to OCC 16-608.
• In addition to the existing off-site advertising signs the City has previously allowed two digital signs at the Collection and the Oxnard Auto Center. These are NOT billboards. These signs are generally limited to the display of businesses located with the Collection or the Oxnard Auto Center. They were both permitted under their respective Specific Plans.
673
Proposed Ordinance
6 ● Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards may only be erected on City of Oxnard owned property or Right of Way, in any non-residential zones located within four hundred (400) feet of the freeway and no more than four (4) are allowed within the City. The original proposal included a allowance of 5, however this was reduced to 4 consistent with the ENAs.
● No Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard may be placed at a distance of less than 100 feet from the property line of any residentially zoned parcel. ● The maximum height of any Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard shall not exceed fifty-five (55) feet as measured from the pavement level of US Highway 101 to the bottom of the digital display.
● The maximum size of each Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard face display area shall be Fourteen (14) feet in height and forty-eight (48) feet in width. Each billboard shall be separated from every other billboard by at least 2,000 feet. 674
Proposed Ordinance (Cont.)
7 ● Each Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard must be oriented primarily for viewing from the adjacent freeway.
● All Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations concerning brightness, including, without limitation, California Building and Professions Code Section 5403(g) and California Vehicle Code Section 21466.5, as well as the Highway Beautification Act of 1965 (23 United States Code Section 131), the Outdoor Advertising Act (California Business and Professions Code Section 5200 et seq.), and the Oxnard City Code.
● A Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard may show a series of still images, each displayed for at least eight (8) seconds. The still images may not move or present the appearance of motion and may not use flashing or blinking lights or any other means not providing constant illumination. Transition or blank screen time between one still image and the next may not exceed one (1) second.
675
Proposed Ordinance (Cont.)
8 ● Before a Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard may be installed within the City, the applicant must first obtain a Special Use Permit (SUP) and enter into a statutory Development Agreement
● In approving a Development Agreement for any Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard, the City Council must find that the Development Agreement will confer substantial public benefit to the City and to the general public. 676
Environmental Review
• An environmental consultant, under the supervision of Planning Division staff, prepared IS/MND which evaluated potential environmental impacts of the proposed Project. The IS/MND was prepared pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
• City prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND):
a. MND review period for 30 days (30 days required)
b. City received four comment letters
c. Comments and responses included in MND
d. Changes made to Draft MND for Final MND based on comments • Final IS/MND includes a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program:
a. Details process to implement required mitigation measures b. After implementation of conditions and mitigation measures, all potentially significant impacts reduced to less than significant levels 9 677
Environmental Review
• Final IS/MND identified the following:
• Class 2 impacts (potentially significant by mitigable, mitigation required) • Aesthetics
• Air Quality
• Biological Resources
• Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
• Noise
• All other impact area were identified as Class 3 (less than significant) • Staff determined that there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment.
10678
January 19, 2023 Planning Commission
• At the hearing Staff’s recommendation was that the Commission recommend approval of the project requests as presented to the City Council. • The Commission made a motion recommending approval with a series of modifications to the Ordinance. These recommended modifications include:

1. Allow for billboard up to 500 feet from the freeway instead of 400 feet.

2. Decrease the maximum number of billboards from 5 to 3.

3. Increase the separation between the billboards from 2,000 feet to 2,500 feet.

4. Increase the setback from residentially zoned properties from 100 feet to 250 feet*.

5. Increase the minimum display time from 8 seconds to to 12 seconds. *This causes the two proposed SUPs (separate agenda items) to be infeasible as they are 130 feet and 160 feet from residential.
11679
Planning Commission Concerns
12 The primary Planning Commission concerns and reasons for the requested modifications were related to:
● Lighting Impacts on Residential Properties
● Traffic Safety
● Visual Impacts
680
Lighting Impacts on Residential Properties
13 ● City Staff and the City’s CEQA consultant prepared the MND, which analyzed lighting impact on any residential properties. The analysis contained in the MND found that, subject to the proposed Ordinance and required mitigation measures, there would not be a significant lighting impact.
● The billboards are oriented towards the freeway and include directionally oriented louvers to direct the lighting, therefore lighting impacts on other surrounding properties are limited.
● Based on the worst case scenario the lighting studies for billboards prepared consistent with the proposed Ordinance and Mitigation Measures the maximum illumination in the direction of a residential zoned property is 0.2 footcandles at approximately 100 feet. ● The proposed 100 foot setback is consistent with the City previous approval of the Collection electronic sign which is approximately 110 feet away from residentially zoned property.
681
Billboard Lighting Example
14682
Traffic Safety
15 ● Any billboards developed under the proposed Ordinance are required to comply with all applicable laws and regulations concerning brightness, including, without limitation, California Building and Professions Code Section 5403(g) and California Vehicle Code Section 21466.5.
● The California Department of Transportation “regulates the placement of outdoor advertising (ODA) displays visible from California highways. Caltrans performs regular reviews of freeways and highways identified on the National Highway System to enforce outdoor advertising requirements under the Federal Highway Beautification Act and the State's Outdoor Advertising Act.”
● Caltrans submitted a comment letter during the public review period for the MND, and did not raise any concerns regarding the proposed Ordinance, as long as the individual signs obtained the appropriate local and state permits. 683
Visual Impacts
16 ● The U.S. Highway 101 corridor, which is generally characterized by urban or high density development, other similar large scale signage such as the existing auto center, Collection, Esplanade signs, and freeway signs.
● Aesthetic impacts, including impacts on views were analyzed as part of the environmental analysis. The analysis determined that with the limit on the number of signs, the already increased separation requirement, and the commercial nature of the existing corridor, the proposed Ordinance would not have a significant visual impact. ● While the proposed Ordinance would allow for up to four billboards, each billboard would be subject to approval by both the Planning Commission and City Council, and require they enter into a Development Agreement with the City. As a result both the Planning Commission and City Council have full discretion over the allowance of future billboards.

BACKGROUND
689
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Project includes a request for a Special Use Permit, Development Agreement, and Specific Plan Amendment to allow for the installation and operation of an electronic billboard on an approximately 0.25 acre undeveloped site located between the U.S. 101 and RiverPark Boulevard approximately 850 feet north of Vineyard Avenue in the northern portion of the City of Oxnard (“Project”).

The Special Use Permit allows for the development of an electronic billboard that would include a digital display of advertisements of various businesses, activities, services or products. The top of the billboard would be approximately 60 feet in height above the ground, and the dimensions of the electronic billboard sign would be 14.5 feet in height and 48.5 feet in width. The electronic billboard would have a two-sided light-emitting diode (LED) digital display that would have dimensions of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width. The Special Use Permit will also include minor landscape improvements within the adjacent Caltrans right of way. These will include the removal of the existing eucalyptus trees and the planting of alternatives, subject to Caltrans approval. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment would amend the RiverPark Specific Plan to allow for Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the RiverPark Specific Plan.

The proposed Development Agreement (DA) allows for the use of City property for the purpose of a Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard and among other public benefits requires payment to the City equal to thirty (30) percent of the Annual Net Revenue, with a minimum guarantee of $150,000 per year for the thirty year (30) term of the DA. This payment equates to a range of approximately $4.5M - $8.4M for the subject sign.

Pursuant to Oxnard City Code, the Commission is the decision maker for Special Use Permit, however they are a recommendation body for Specific Plan Amendment and Development Agreements.

On February 2, 2023, the Planning Commission first took action on a proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Billboard Ordinance (Ordinance). The Commission made numerous changes to the Ordinance, which made the subject SUP inconsistent with the Ordinance. At the February 2, 2023 Commission hearing, the Commission denied, and recommended Council denial, of the Subject permits.

As the final decision maker for the Specific Plan Amendment and the Development Agreement is the City Council, and to ensure that the City Council had the opportunity to review the whole of the project, all related entitlements are being presented to the City Council for their consideration. City Staff filed a request for review of the Planning Commissions denial of the Special Use Permit. While City Staff filed the request for review, the Applicant for the project is still Outfront Foster Interstate represented by Lars Skugstad (hereafter “Applicant” or “Developer”).

Staff continues to recommend approval of the Project as originally proposed by the Applicant based upon:

1. City Council authorization, approval, and continued extensions of Exclusive Negotiation Agreements (ENAs) with both Outfront Foster Interstate since 2019, which identified potential Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard locations;
With the increased separation from residential uses requested by the Planning Commission as part of the recommendation on the Ordinance, the subject Billboard location would not be allowed.

2. Compliance with State laws established by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), which is the agency responsible for regulating freeway safety;

3. Consistency with the general plan, zoning, and the environmental review, specifically the lighting impacts which does not allow an increase in illumination at any residentially zoned property by more than 0.5 footcandles, which is deemed negligible. (This is further discussed in the “Key Projects Concerns” section of this report).

In summary, at this public hearing, the City Council has the option to move forward with: (1) the approval of the Project; or (2) provide direction to deny the Project and direct City staff to return at a date certain meeting with the appropriate resolutions of denial. Should the City Council choose to take another action other than those identified, the City Council can direct staff to return at a future public hearing with revised documents incorporating the direction provided. 690
Role of the Planning Commission and City Council
Pursuant to Oxnard City Code (OCC) Section 2-95, the Commission is an advisory body which provides land use recommendations to the City Council on items such as General Plan Amendments, Specific Plans, Ordinance Amendments, and Development Agreements. Therefore while the City Council is to consider the recommendations of the Commission, the Council may take an action which is not consistent with the recommendations of the Commission.

For the benefit of the City Council, this staff report provides: 1) background of the ENA discussions and Billboards; 2) a summary of the Commission hearings; 3) summaries of the Project and associated environmental review; and 5) a discussion of key concerns raised at Planning Commission.

BACKGROUND:

ENA Discussions and Extensions
On June 18, 2019, the City Council approved and authorized the Mayor to execute an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENAs) with Outfront Foster Interstate, LLC for potential digital billboard sites. Under the terms of the ENA, Outfront Foster was given the exclusive right to negotiate with the City for an initial six-month period, and two additional sixmonth terms if the projects were being diligently pursued by Outfront Foster. The ENA is currently on the 7th Amendment which runs through June 6, 2023.

Existing Billboards and Freeway Oriented Signage
The City currently allows for billboards in the form of Off-site advertising signs throughout the City in General Commercial (C-2), Commercial Manufacturing (C-M), Limited Manufacturing (M-L), Light Manufacturing (M-1), and Heavy Manufacturing (M-2) zones pursuant to OCC 16-608. Under the proposed ordinance the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards, would be regulated separately from the Off-site advertising signs. The allowance of Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards, is much more limited, as they are only allowed within 400 feet of U.S. Highway 101 and only on City owned property.

In addition to the existing Off-site advertising signs, the City has permitted two digital signs as allowed by the RiverPark Specific Plan (The Collection) and the Rose Santa Clara Specific Plan (Oxnard Auto Center). These signs are not defined as Off-site advertising signs and generally limited to the display of businesses located within the Collection or the Oxnard Auto Center. They were both permitted under their respective Specific Plans; therefore, no additional digital signage would be allowed without changes to the Specific Plans. Also, the Collection sign is approximately 110 feet away from the closest residential zoned property.

Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance ( PZ 20-580-06) Prior to consideration of the subject request, Council must take action on amendments to Article IX. Advertising Signs of the Oxnard City Code to permit Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards. A separate staff report addresses the specifics of that Ordinance, as well as the Commission's recommended changes to that Ordinance. The Commission’s recommended changes to the Ordinance was approved by 3 (in favor) - 2 (against), with two commissioners absent. Due to the proposed changes the Commission was required to review the RiverPark Blvd Electronic Billboard Project in accordance with the amendments. As the Project was inconsistent with the recommended amendments, the Commission had to deny Planning and Zoning Permit No. 20-500-07 (Special Use Permit) and recommend denial of the other associated project components.

PROJECT REQUESTS:

The Applicant’s original request sought Planning Commission and City Council approval of the following four requests (Special Use Permit, Development Agreement, Specific Plan Amendment, Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND 22- 02)):

1. Special Use Permit
The electronic billboard would include a digital display of advertisements of various businesses, activities, services or products. The proposed billboard would be supported by a pole that ranges in diameter from approximately 7 feet to 3 feet. The pole would extend approximately 45.5 feet above ground. The portion of the pole above ground would be painted primarily gray except for the upper 10.5 feet that would be painted black. The top of the billboard would be 60 feet in height above the ground and the dimensions of the electronic billboard sign would be 14.5 feet in height and 48.5 691
feet in width. The existing ground level is at approximately the same elevation as the travel lanes along U.S. 101 and RiverPark Boulevard. The electronic billboard would have a two-sided light-emitting diode (LED) digital display that would have dimensions of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width.

Illumination shall be directed such that minimal light spill will occur on either side or the top or bottom of the sign face.

A light sensor will be installed with the sign to measure ambient light levels and adjust light intensity and brightness based on ambient conditions. For reference, based on a study of existing lighting levels along Riverpark Boulevard, the average illumination is 3 foot-candles due to existing street lights and other nearby lighting fixtures. Adjacent to the existing street light the lighting level is approximately 5 foot-candles. The electronic sign will not display any moving, flashing, scrolling, fading, brightening or animated text or video. The signage will be controlled remotely and include remote maintenance software. LED lighting has a directional nature, focused toward the freeway. Louvers will be located above each row of lights to prevent light from projecting upward into the sky. As designed, the billboard complies with the staff recommended ordinance and the State laws established by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), which is the agency responsible for regulating freeway safety.

Eight existing eucalyptus located on the north side of U.S. 101 are proposed to be removed, which would require Caltrans approval because the trees are located within the U.S. 101 right-of-way. In addition, the Project includes removal of all dead wood located in the vicinity of the existing eucalyptus trees. The Project includes the placement of small multi-trunk accent trees with a maximum height of 15 feet along with low groundcover and shrubs.

2. Development Agreement
The proposed Development Agreement will allow for the use of City property for the purpose of a Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard. The agreement also outlines the required public benefits to be provided by the future development, including fiscal benefits to the City, such as revenue sharing. As proposed, these include:
• Term - Thirty (30) years.
• Monetary Payment - The Applicant shall pay to the City 30 percent of the Annual Net Revenue, with a minimum guarantee of $150,00 per year (approximately $4.5M - $8.4M over the term of the agreement). • City Usage of the Billboard - To the extent that commercial advertising time on the Billboard is unsold and available, City shall have the right to use 12.5% out of the total inventory of 16 spots (8 spots per face) or 2 total spots for the Billboard.
• Emergency Notifications - Outfront shall make the Billboard available to Caltrans and the California Highway Patrol for purposes of “Amber Alerts” and for emergency or disaster notifications by local, state or federal agencies.
• Discount for Oxnard Auto Dealers and Oxnard Chamber of Commerce Members - Oxnard Auto Dealers and members of the Oxnard Chamber of Commerce shall receive a ten percent (10%) discount from the rates to advertise on the Billboard.
• Prohibitions - Any message that: is inherently false, misleading, or libelous (i.e., speech that is incapable of being presented in a manner that is not misleading); promotes the sale or use of firearms or tobacco products, whether directly or indirectly; promotes adult entertainment, products, conventions, events, or websites; contains “obscene matter,” as that term is defined in local, California or federal law.

3. Specific Plan Amendment
The proposed Project requires an amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan to add Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the Commercial Master Plan of the RiverPark Specific Plan. The specific revisions to the Specific Plan text identify minimum and maximum lot dimensions as well as size and spacing of the billboards. These revisions are consistent with the staff recommended Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance that is required to be approved prior to approval of the proposed Project.

4. Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15060, the City of Oxnard as the Lead Agency, prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) in accordance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. The MND 692
identified and discussed potential impacts, mitigation measures, monitoring requirements, and residual impacts for identified subject areas. The MND found that the implementation of the proposed Project would result in potentially significant impacts associated with biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species. Mitigation measures have been required to reduce each potentially significant impact to less than significant. The mitigation measures that have been required within the MND would reduce potential significant impacts. These measures include (BIO-1) conducting a pre-construction survey for active bird nests, and (CUL-1 and CUL-2) monitoring and collecting, if necessary, any discovered archaeological and paleontological resources.. After the implementation of the required mitigation measures, the potential significant impacts would be reduced to less than significant. No remaining significant impacts would occur. With respect to Aesthetics, although less than significant lighting impacts would occur, the MND includes mitigation measures that are recommended to further reduce impacts. These measures include: (AES-1 and AES2) allowing for remote shut off in the event of malfunction and conducting illumination level verification tests.

The MND was available for public review from June 30, 2022, and ended on July 29, 2022. The City of Oxnard received four comment letters on the Draft MND. The comment letters and responses to each comment have been prepared and included in the Final IS/MND. Comments provided will be considered by the decision-making body in accordance with CEQA Guidelines, Section 15074(b).

KEY PROJECT CONCERN
Lighting and Visual Impacts on Residential Properties
Concerns were raised by Commissioners and members of the public regarding lighting impacts on residential properties.

Specifically, comments were made about impacts to the residential developments to the north of the Project site and within the County of Ventura’s El Rio neighborhood. The proposed billboard is approximately 130 feet south of the adjacent residential areas and 1,700 feet from the closest residentially zoned property within the El Rio community. As it relates to the County of Ventura’s El Rio neighborhood, the project is not only 1,700 feet away from the residential areas, it is separated by a variety of Commercial and Office developments, which contain multiple two to four story buildings, as well as the freeway overcrossing. Given the relatively flat topography and intervening developments, the view of the proposed Billboard would be very limited, if visible at all. This is indicated by the inability to see the existing trees on the project site or the existing Esplanade sign, which though further from the El Rio Neighborhood is approximately 15 feet taller than the proposed billboard.

Also, while the billboard would be visible from residential areas in the City, City Staff and the City’s CEQA consultant analyzed lighting impact on any residential properties, which would include any residentially zoned property both in the City of Oxnard and the County of Ventura. The MND found that, subject to the proposed Ordinance and required mitigation measures, there would not be a significant lighting impact based on the recommendations from the International Commission on Illuminance. Pursuant to the proposed Ordinance and Mitigation Measures, the maximum allowable increase in illumination at any residentially zoned property would be 0.5 footcandles. A site specific lighting study was prepared for the Project to analyze the Project's impacts on adjacent residential. While unlikely, the study assumes the worst case scenario of an all white sign to determine the greatest lighting impact. As these signs are oriented towards the freeway and include directionally oriented louvers to direct the lighting, the lighting projected toward any residential properties would be limited. Per the lighting study, the maximum illumination in the direction of the nearest residential zoned property is 0.2 footcandles at approximately 100 feet. This is significantly below the City adopted lighting requirements, which require projects be illuminated to a level of 1-7 footcandles throughout a project. Therefore, any additional lighting generated by the billboard would be negligible.

As it relates to visual impacts, the proposed billboard is within the U.S. Highway 101 corridor, which is generally characterized by urban or high density development, as well as other similar large scale signage such as the existing auto center, collection, and esplanade signs. In addition to these signs there are numerous larger illuminated freeway signs, including electronic ones, along the corridor. The proposed billboard would be consistent with the overall nature of the corridor. Lastly, the proposed 100 foot setback is consistent with the City previous approval of the Collection electronic sign which is approximately 110 feet away from residentially zoned property. 693

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities.

This agenda item supports the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy. The purpose of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy is to preserve and improve our roads, utilities, parks, trees, water supply and natural resources through effective planning, prioritization, and an equitable and efficient use of available funding.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
If option 1 is selected, the Applicant shall pay to the City 30 percent of the Annual Net Revenue, with a minimum guarantee of $150,000 annually. Revenue receipt is dependent on construction timing, but would be anticipated in Fiscal Year 2023-24 at the earliest.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME
This is a Public Hearing and was reviewed by the Commission, therefore this item did not originate in Committee.

During the Commission’s public hearing on January 19, 2023, Commissioners asked a series of questions as a result of staff’s and the Applicant team’s presentations. One public comment was received prior to the meeting and one verbal comment was provided during the public comment period on the Project. The questions and comments were generally in regards to the impacts on views and lighting. Following Commission deliberation, a motion of Intent to Deny the Project as they could not make all of the Findings required to support the Project. The January 19, 2023 Planning Commission meeting can be viewed online at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIS7Q-hYfgg.

On February 2, 2023, all six members of the Planning Commission were present. The Commissioners who were not present on January 19, 2023 confirmed they reviewed the staff materials and watched the video of the Commission’s January 19 meeting. One of the Commissioners who was previously present on January 19th, was absent on February 2nd. On February 2, 2023, the Commission voted 6-0 (with one commissioner absent), to adopt a resolution denying the Special Use Permit and recommending denial of the Specific Plan Amendment and Development Agreement to the City Council. While as noted above the Commission was required to deny the project based upon the recommended changes to the ordinance, the Commission did raise concern about the Project’s proximity to the residential area, due to the potential lighting and visual impacts.

property for the purpose of a Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard and outline the required public benefits to be provided by the future development. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment would amend the RiverPark Specific Plan to allow for Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the RiverPark Specific Plan.

The request includes adoption of the proposed Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS-MND) and adoption of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) which has been prepared pursuant to provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15063. The Project site is located within the RiverPark Specific Plan and designated as Public Facilities. The 2030 General Plan land use designation is Commercial Regional. For purposes of this staff report, the foregoing project description shall be referred to as the “Project.”. Filed by Lars Skugstad, 1111 Broadway, Suite 1515, Oakland, CA 94607 (the “Applicant”) on behalf of the City of Oxnard (the “Property Owner”).

Please see the reduced Project plans (Attachment B) for more details. 3) Existing & Surrounding Land Uses: The Project site is currently undeveloped City owned property located within the RPSP area. The area surrounding the Project site consists of a mix of residential and commercial land uses. To the west and south of the Project site, across U.S. 101, is the Esplanade Commercial Shopping Center. To the southeast are retail commercial uses adjacent to Vineyard Avenue. These commercial and retail land uses are zoned as RiverPark Specific Plan. On the northeast side of Riverpark Boulevard is a place of worship and single family residences that are part of the El Rio West neighborhood and zoned as a Multiple-Family Residential Planned Development and Single-Family Residential Planned Development. To the north are the two and three story Paseo Del Rio Apartments, which are also a part of the RiverPark Specific Plan Area. Further to northeast within the RiverPark Specific Plan area are additional apartments that are three stories and beyond the apartments is the Collection shopping center. The following table summarizes the land uses and zoning designation of the Project site and adjacent properties, which are also illustrated in Attachment A:

4) Background Information:
a) On June 18, 2019, the City Council approved and authorized the Mayor to execute Exclusive Negotiation Agreements (ENAs) with Clear Channel Outdoor, LLC and another with Outfront Foster Interstate, LLC -- both for potential digital billboard sites.

Under the terms of the ENAs, both companies were given the exclusive right to negotiate with the City for an initial six-month period, and two additional six-month terms if the projects were being diligently pursued by the parties. On November 17, 2020 Council amended the ENAs to allow for an additional 6 months (until June 2021), as well as provided the City Manager with authority to extend the ENAs for two additional six-month terms if the projects are being diligently pursued by the parties. On June 7, 2022, the City Council determined that significant enough progress had been made to amend the ENAs, to grant another 6 months (until June 2023), as well as provided the City Manager with authority to extend the ENAs for two additional six-month terms if the projects are being diligently pursued by the parties. b) Concurrent with the process of this Project the City is processing amendments to Article IX. Advertising Signs of the Oxnard City Code to permit Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards on parcels designated as commercial, industrial, or public facilities within 400 feet of the U.S. 101 right-of-way within the City of Oxnard and a amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan to allow the sign in accordance with the Oxnard City Code. The installation and operation of individual electronic billboards would require approval of a Special Use Permit and Development Agreement. No Freeway Adjacent Digital Billboard may be placed at a distance of less than 100 feet from the property line of any residentially zoned parcel. All Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards would have a maximum face display area of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width, would be oriented primarily for viewing from the adjacent freeway, and would have a maximum height of 55 feet as measured from the pavement level of the adjacent freeway to the bottom of the digital display or 80 feet to the top of the sign. Each Freeway Adjacent 700

Digital Display Billboard shall be separated from every other Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard by at least 2,000 feet with a maximum of five (5) allowed in the City. c) The RPSP was adopted by the City Council on September 10, 2002, together with the General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Annexation, Development Agreement, and EIR certification related to the RPSP approval. The original RPSP allowed for the phased development of 2,805 dwelling units and 2,485,000 square feet of commercial development (including approximately 221,000 square feet of existing office development that was approved under the Oxnard Town Center Specific Plan, prior to the adoption of the RPSP). The original RPSP was developed following the design principles of the New Urbanism and Smart Growth movements, which emphasized the importance of mixed land uses in close proximity, communities scaled for pedestrian walkability; limiting the need for automobile usage; higher density development, and the importance of physical design.

Seven previous amendments to the RPSP have been approved.

1. The Council approved the first amendment request (PZ 02-630-05) on October 22, 2002, which amended the new RPSP to include regulations for temporary uses.

2. The Council approved the second amendment request (PZ 03-630-03) on July 27, 2004, allowing a minor change in the land use designation on a small parcel from Open Space to Commercial.

3. The Council approved the third amendment request (PZ 09-630-09) on April 14, 2009, allowing a freeway-oriented pylon sign subject to approval of a Design Development Review permit (DDR) by the Development Services Director.

4. The fourth amendment (PZ 10-630-02), was approved by the City Council on June 14, 2011, and allows three freeway oriented monument signs subject to approval of a DDR, and an electronic digital display panel for the pylon sign, subject to subsequent approval of a Special Use Permit.

5. The fifth amendment (PZ 09-630-03), was approved by the City Council on June 5, 2012. The fifth amendment increased the maximum number of dwelling units from 2,805 to 3,043 units, and reduced the maximum amount of commercial development from 2,485,000 to 2,098,000 square feet. The additional units were to be located in District D of the RPSP.

6. The sixth amendment (PZ 18-630-01), was approved by the City Council on February 19, 2019, to amend the text of the RPSP to allow two (2) monument signs in Planning Districts C, subject to subsequent approval of a DDR.

7. The seventh amendment (PZ 20-630-01), was approved by the City Council on March 15, 2022. This amendment allowed development of up to 1,025 additional residential units under the RPSP, in exchange for a reduction of up to approximately 562,457 square feet of non-residential development potential in accordance with specified development scenarios.

5) Environmental Determination: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15060, the City of Oxnard as the Lead Agency, prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) in accordance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. The MND identified and discussed potential impacts, mitigation measures, monitoring requirements, and residual impacts for identified subject areas. The MND found that the implementation of the proposed Project would result in potentially significant impacts associated with biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species.

Mitigation measures have been required to reduce each potentially significant impact to less than significant. The mitigation measures that have been required within the MND would reduce potential significant impacts. These measures include (BIO-1) conducting a pre-construction survey for active bird nests, and (CUL-1 and CUL-2) monitoring and collecting, if necessary, any discovered archaeological and paleontological resources. After the implementation of the required mitigation measures, the potential significant impacts would be reduced to less than significant. After the implementation of the required mitigation measures, the potential significant impacts would be reduced to less than significant. No remaining significant impacts would occur. With respect to Aesthetics, although less than significant lighting impacts would occur, the MND includes mitigation measures that are recommended to further reduce less than significant light impacts. These measures include:
(AES-1 and AES-2) allowing for remote shut off in the event of malfunction and conducting illumination level verification tests.

The MND was available for public review from June 30, 2022, and ended on July 29, 2022.

The City of Oxnard received four comment letters on the Draft MND. The comment letters and responses to each comment have been prepared and included in the Final IS/MND.

Comments provided will be considered by the decision-making body in accordance with CEQA Guidelines, Section 15074(b).

With the inclusion of the mitigations for the areas noted above, the Project will not have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was prepared with mitigation measures and monitoring program in accordance with the provisions of CEQA (Attachment C).
6) Project Analysis:
a) General Discussion: Pursuant to Oxnard City Code (OCC) Section 2-95, the Planning Commission is an advisory body which provides land use recommendations to the City Council on items such as General Plan Amendments, Specific Plans, Ordinance Amendments and Development Agreements. The Planning Commission is the decision maker for Special Use Permit pursuant to OCC Section 16-531.

The applicant requests a Special Use Permit, Development Agreement, and Specific plan Amendment to allow for the installation and operation of an electronic billboard on an 702

approximately 0.25-acre undeveloped site(APN: 132-0-311-075) located between the U.S. 101 and Riverpark Boulevard approximately 850 feet north of Vineyard Avenue in the northern portion of the City of Oxnard. The following is a summary of the requested revisions.

Special Use Permit
The electronic billboard would include a digital display of advertisements of various businesses, activities, services or products. The proposed billboard would be supported by a pole that ranges in diameter from approximately 7 feet to 3 feet. The pole would extend approximately 40 feet below ground and approximately 45.5 feet above ground.

The portion of the pole above ground would be painted primarily gray except for the upper 10.5 feet that would be painted black. The top of the billboard would be 60 feet in height above the ground and the dimensions of the electronic billboard sign would be

14.5 feet in height and 48.5 feet in width. The existing ground level is at approximately the same elevation as the travel lanes along U.S. 101 and Riverpark Boulevard. The electronic billboard would have a two-sided light-emitting diode (LED) digital display that would have dimensions of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width.

Lighting levels on the digital sign will not exceed 0.3 foot candles above ambient light from a distance of 250 feet, as measured according to standards of the Outdoor Advertising Association of America. Brightness shall not exceed 300 nitere (nits) or candela per square meter from sunset to sunrise. At all other times, brightness will not exceed 7,500 nits. Illumination shall be directed such that minimal light spill will occur on either side or the top or bottom of the sign face. A light sensor will be installed with the sign to measure ambient light levels and adjust light intensity and brightness based on ambient conditions. The electronic sign will not display any moving, flashing, scrolling, fading, brightening or animated text or video. The signage will be controlled remotely and include remote maintenance software. LED lighting has a directional nature, focused toward the freeway. Louvers will be located above each row of lights to prevent light from projecting upward into the sky.

Eight existing eucalyptus located on the north side of U.S. 101 are proposed to be removed which would require Caltrans approval because the trees are located within the U.S. 101 right-of-way. In addition, the Project includes removal of all dead wood located in the vicinity of the existing eucalyptus trees. The Project includes the placement of small multi-trunk accent trees with a maximum height of 15 feet along with low groundcover and shrubs.

Development Agreement
The proposed Development Agreement will allow for the use of City property for the purpose of a Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboard. The agreement would also outline the required public benefits to be provided by the future development, including fiscal benefits to the City, such as revenue sharing. No other physical improvements are 703

allowed or required by the development agreement.

Street Vacation
The proposed Project will require an amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan. The amendment would include the addition of Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the Commercial Master Plan of the RiverPark Specific Plan. The specific revisions to the Specific Plan text. The proposed revisions identify minimum and maximum lot dimensions as well as size and spacing of the billboards. These revisions would be consistent with the proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance that is required to be approved prior to approval of the proposed Project. b) General Plan Consistency: The City’s 2030 General Plan land use designation for the subject site is Commercial Regional (CR) uses which allows retail, commercial, government and residential uses. The proposed use is Commercial. Consistency with the 2030 General Plan is defined by the relationship between 2030 General Plan policies and the proposed Project. The proposed Project does not conflict with General Plan land use, goals and policies. The proposed SPA to the RPSP and foreseeable development is consistent with the 2030 General Plan and the property’s land use designations.

RiverPark is located within the North Oxnard Transit Enhancement District (NOTED) Urban Village as defined in the 2030 General Plan. The NOTED area includes the area north of the Oxnard Boulevard/Vineyard Avenue intersection generally between Ventura Road and Vineyard Avenue including the Esplanade shopping center, The Village Specific Plan, and the RiverPark Specific Plan. As an urban area, the allowance of Electronic Billboards is appropriate and consistent with the 2030 General Plan. The proposed DA allows for the use of City property and outlines the required public benefits to be provided by future development. No other physical improvements are allowed or required by the development agreement, and therefore it does not conflict with General Plan land use, goals and policies. The project’s consistency review with General Plan policies is included as Attachment D. The proposed Project has been determined to be consistent with the General Plan and the property’s land use designation. c) Conformance with Zoning Code Development Standards: As noted above the City is concurrently processing an Ordinance Amendment (PZ 20-580-06) to allow for Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards, as currently being proposed. The proposed ordinance amendment includes development standards which will be applicable to all Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards developed within the City. As shown in Attachment E, the proposed Project has been designed to be consistent with the proposed ordinance. As a condition, the approval of this Project is contingent upon the City’s adoption of the proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards ordinance.

Additionally, the Project must comply with the final ordinance as adopted, therefore, if any changes occur to the proposed development standards the Project would be required to be amended, to bring it into compliance.

d) Site Design, Circulation, and Parking: The project is located on an approximately

0.25-acre undeveloped site located between the U.S. 101 and Riverpark Boulevard approximately 850 feet north of Vineyard Avenue in the northern portion of the City of Oxnard. The proposed site improvements include the installation of an electronic sign.

City staff has reviewed the proposed sign, and determined it would not have a significant impact on the future development of the City owned parcels in the area, should they be developed in the future. As the sign is controlled remotely, no parking is required. In the rare event onsite work is required, there is sufficient space onsite. e) Sign Design: The pole would extend approximately 40 feet below ground and approximately 45.5 feet above ground. The portion of the pole above ground would be painted primarily gray except for the upper 10.5 feet that would be painted black. The pole design has been kept simple with the gray color, to minimize the visual impact of the pole itself. The top of the billboard would be approximately 60 feet in height above the ground and the dimensions of the electronic billboard sign would be 14.5 feet in height and 48.5 feet in width.
7) Development Advisory Committee: The Development Advisory Committee (DAC) reviewed the proposed Project on November 18, 2020. The comments from the DAC have been incorporated into the Project, including the studies, and MND. 8) Community Workshop and Public Input: A Community Workshop on the Project was held on December 20, 2021. Public notice signs were posted onsite. Notifications were mailed to the RiverPark Neighborhood. Approximately 2,000 notices were mailed. The meeting was held online. Eight members of the community attended this meeting, and two people spoke on the items. The video from the online workshop was also posted on the City’s website for members of the public to view separately. The primary concern identified at the Community Workshop was related to general allowance of electronic billboards and lighting impacts. Both aesthetics and lighting impacts were analyzed in the environmental document and it was determined that with the implementation of the project mitigations the impacts would be less than significant. There was also a request for an additional site rendering showing the sign from the adjacent side of the freeway, which was prepared and has been included in Attachment B.

Consistent with public noticing requirements, the Planning Commission Hearing was advertised with on-site postings and a newspaper notice and a mailed notice to property owners within 300 feet of the Project site.
9) Appeal Procedure: The action of the Planning Commission on the Special Use Permit is final unless appealed in writing to the City Council no later than eighteen (18) days after the decision date (Section 16-545) of the Oxnard City Code. Appeal forms may be obtained from 705

LANDSCAPE DESIGN INTENT

THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN IS SIMPLE, NATURALISTIC, WATER CONSERVING AND LOW MAINTENANCE. IT IS IN CONTEXT WITH THE ADJACENT HIGHWAY, THE NEIGHBORING URBAN AREA AND WITH THE LOCAL ENVIRONMENT.

SMALL FLOWERING TREES DRIFT ALONG THE INSIDE EDGE, ADDING COLOR AND SOFTENING THE STRUCTURE.THE UNDERSTORY RETAINS THE EXISTING LOW EVERGREEN SHRUBS AND FILLS IN THE BARE AREAS WITH A NATIVE MEADOW WHICH IS COMPOSED OF TOUGH LOW GROUNDCOVERS.ADDITIONAL WOODY SHRUBS ARE AVOIDED DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD OF THEIR FLAMMABLE INTERIORS.

THE DESIGN COMPLIES WITH THE WATER EFFICIENT LANDSCAPE ORDINANCE. IT INCORPORATES SUSTAINABLE PRINCIPLES AND BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES. SPECIES

ARE CAREFULLY SELECTED AND COMBINED BASED ON SIMILAR WATER NEEDS AND HORTICULTURAL REQUIREMENTS. PLANTING AND IRRIGATION ARE COORDINATED SO THAT WATER USE IS MINIMIZED AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS ARE MAXIMIZED.

THIS LANDSCAPE PLAN IS CONCEPTUAL. FURTHER DESIGN IS REQUIRED TO DEVELOP IT TO CONSTRUCTION READY PLANS.

7. Rent. 7.1 Rent. Rent, as set forth in this provision, shall commence on the Operational Date.
(a) Minimum Annual Guarantee (MAG). Each year, OFI shall pay City the Minimum Annual Guarantee (the “MAG”) in the initial amount of $150,000 per year, starting on the Operational Date, in accordance with the terms set forth in this Section. 759
6 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) Term Rent
Years 1-30 $150,000
(b) Manner of Payment. An annual prorated share of the MAG is due and payable on a calendar quarter basis, commencing within forty-five (45) days of the Operational Date and within ten (10) days following the beginning of each calendar quarter occurring thereafter without notice, demand, offset or deduction. OFI shall remit the MAG to City at the address designated by City in writing to OFI for the payment of Rent. For any portion of the Initial Term that is less than a full calendar quarter, the MAG shall be prorated based on the number of days occurring during such calendar quarter and actual number of days in such calendar quarter.
(i) Late Charge. If OFI fails to pay any installment of MAG within ten (10) calendar days after the same is due and payable, such unpaid amount will be subject to a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid amount in each instance; provided, however, OFI shall not be assessed with the foregoing late payment charge with respect to the first (1st) late payment in any consecutive twelve (12) month period unless and until OFI fails to make such payment to City within three (3) business days after written notice from City that it failed to receive such amounts within the time period set forth above.

Following the first (1st) late payment in any calendar year, no notice by City shall be required for purposes of collecting a late payment charge. The late payment charge has been agreed upon by City and OFI, after negotiation, as a reasonable estimate of the additional administrative costs and detriment that City will incur as a result of any such failure by OFI, the actual costs thereof being extremely difficult—if not impossible—to determine. The late payment charge constitutes liquidated damages to compensate City for its damages resulting from such failure to pay, and OFI shall promptly pay such charge to City together with any unpaid interest (ii) Default Interest. If any MAG is not paid within ten (10) calendar days following the due date, such unpaid amount will bear simple interest at the rate of 10% per year or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower (“Default Rate”) from the due date until paid. However, interest will not be payable on late charges incurred by OFI, nor on any amounts on which late charges are paid by OFI to the extent this interest would cause the total interest to be in excess of that which an individual is lawfully permitted to charge. Payment of interest will not excuse or cure any default by OFI. (iii) Application of Payments. All payments received by City from OFI will be applied to the oldest obligation owed by OFI to City. No designation by OFI, either in a separate writing, on a check or money order, or otherwise will modify this Article 5 or have any force or effect.

7.2 Additional Consideration
760
7 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) (a) Percentage Rent. To the extent that the MAG for the 12-month period commencing on the Operational Date or anniversary of the Operational Date (“Agreement Year”) during the Initial Term is less than 30% of the Annual Net Revenue for that Agreement Year (the difference being referred to herein as “Percentage Rent”), OFI shall pay to City, in addition to the MAG, within thirty (30) days after the end of the relevant Agreement Year, and to the extent applicable, the Percentage Rent.
(i) Reports. OFI shall furnish to City an annual statement of Annual Net Revenue within thirty (30) days after the end of each Agreement Year. Such statement shall be in a form acceptable to City.

Such books of account, records, cash receipts and other pertinent data shall be kept for a period of no less than four (4) years after the end of each Agreement Year.

City, at its sole option, will be entitled, at any time and from time to time during the Initial Term and during normal business hours and with prior written notice to OFI, to inspect, examine, copy and audit OFI's books, records and cash receipts as related to Annual Net Revenue. OFI shall cooperate fully with City and City's agents in making the examination. City, at its option, will also be entitled once during each Agreement Year and once after the termination of this Agreement, to cause an independent audit of such records to be performed by a certified public accountant designated by City, provided such accountant is not paid on a contingency fee basis. The audit will be conducted during usual business hours at OFI’s office located at _______________________________, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. If the audit shows that there is a deficiency in the payment of any Percentage Rent, then OFI shall promptly upon notice pay the deficiency to City which payment will not require any penalty or other late fee. City will pay the costs of the audit unless the audit shows that OFI understated Annual Net Revenue by more than three percent (3%) in which case OFI will pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs paid to third party consultants and incurred by City in connection with the audit.
(b) City Usage. To the extent that commercial advertising time on the Billboard is unsold and available, City shall have the right to use 12.5% out of the total inventory of 16 spots (8 spots per face) or 2 total spots for the Billboard (such usage “City Usage”).

Content displayed on the Billboard in connection with City Usage shall be displayed (subject to the terms of this Agreement) during the operation of the Billboard in increments, at the times of day and otherwise in the same manner as the commercial advertising displayed by OFI on the Billboard. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, City may use such time to promote any purpose that City, in its sole discretion determines best serves the needs of the City and residents, including but not limited to advertising City events and programs. City will submit “camera ready” artwork to OFI, at no cost to OFI, for display purposes. City agrees that for any City 761
8 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) Usage City will provide OFI with prior written notice of its desire for City Usage, City will provide OFI with the copy or text of such messages not less than ten (10) business days prior to the date such messages are to appear on the Billboard, and City Usage shall be limited to messages for the civic and public purposes described in this Section and will not be used directly or indirectly for any types of messaging or advertising which OFI would otherwise be able to sell to third parties in the ordinary course of OFI’s business. City represents and warrants that all advertising materials and content supplied by City to OFI for display in connection with City Usage, (i) are owned or duly licensed by City and do not infringe or misappropriate the rights of any other person or entity, (ii) comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules and regulations and any industry codes or rules by which the parties may be bound and do not contain any obscene, libelous, slanderous or otherwise defamatory materials or refer in an offensive manner to the gender, race or ethnicity of any individual or group; (iii) are not false; and (iv) do not infringe upon any copyright, trademark or other intellectual property or privacy right of any third party.

(c) Emergency Notifications. Without any offset in the City Usage described above and at no cost to the City and as further consideration for the use and occupancy of Property, Outfront shall make the Billboard available to Caltrans and the California Highway Patrol for purposes of “Amber Alerts” and for emergency or disaster notifications by local, state or federal agencies.
(d) Discount for Oxnard Auto Dealers and Oxnard Chamber of Commerce Members. For the Initial Term of this Agreement, Oxnard Auto Dealers and members of the Oxnard Chamber of Commerce shall receive a ten percent (10%) discount from the rates to advertise on the Billboard.

8. Advertising. The Billboard is not intended to provide a general public forum for purposes of communication, but rather to make use of property held by the City in a proprietary capacity in order to generate revenue. Except for any advertising or messages displayed on the Billboard at the request of the City (subject to the terms of this Agreement), all advertising to be displayed on the Billboard shall be strictly “commercial advertising.” As used in this Agreement, “commercial advertising” means advertising for a commercial or industrial business, product, good, service, or other commercial or industrial activity for a commercial or industrial purpose. In addition to the general limitation on Billboard advertising to strictly commercial advertising, OFI may not display any message that: is inherently false, misleading, or libelous (i.e., speech that is incapable of being presented in a manner that is not misleading); promotes the sale or use of firearms or tobacco products, whether directly or indirectly; promotes adult entertainment, products, conventions, events, or websites; contains “obscene matter,” as that term is defined in local, California or federal law, including but not limited to any statements or words of an obscene, indecent or immoral character, or any picture or illustration of any human figure in such detail as to offend public morals or decency or any other matter or thing of an obscene, indecent or immoral character; contains any “political advertising,” which means advertising that promotes or opposes any candidate for public office or promotes or opposes a 762
9 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) ballot measure, referendum, bond issue, or any federal, state or local legislation, regulation, or other discretionary action; contains language that presents a clear-and-present danger of causing riot, disorder, or other imminent threat to public safety, peace, or order. OFI shall, within 48 hours after written demand from City, at OFI’s risk and expense, remove any advertising material or message that does not comply with the advertising criteria set forth in this Section, and which is not being disputed by OFI. If OFI fails to promptly cause the removal of such advertising, City may (but is not required to), without further process of law, cause the removal of the advertising. OFI shall reimburse City’s costs of such actions upon demand and will bear the risk of any damage to the Billboard resulting from such actions. City may exercise such remedies without prejudice to any other remedies it may be entitled to exercise under this Agreement, at law or in equity. OFI agrees to ensure that businesses or organizations located within the City or residents of the City will be able to purchase advertising on the Billboard in such manner and at such rates as offered to businesses, organizations or persons located or residing outside of the City and that it will not permit any exclusivity contracts or arrangements with advertisers that would violate this covenant.

9. Subsequent Applicable Rules. Rules, regulations and official policies of the City, including but not limited to the General Plan, the Specific Plan, zoning and other development regulations adopted after the Effective Date of this Agreement (“Subsequent Applicable Rules”) shall not be applicable to or binding upon the Project unless they are otherwise expressly allowed by this Agreement or are consented to in writing by OFI. The City shall not require OFI to obtain any approvals or permits for the development of the Project other than those permits or approvals which are required by the Applicable Rules. This Agreement will bind the City to the terms and obligations specified in this Agreement.

10. No Conflicting Enactments. The City shall not enact rules, regulation, ordinances or other measures which limit or control the development of any part of the Project which is inconsistent or in conflict with this Agreement.

11. Moratorium or Initiative Measures. OFI and the City intend that no moratorium or other limitation (whether relating to the rate, timing or sequence of the development of the Project and whether enacted by initiative or otherwise) affecting building permits or other entitlements shall apply to the Project to the extent such moratorium or other limitation is inconsistent with or conflicts with this Agreement.

12. Legal Challenges. City agrees to cooperate with OFI in all reasonable manners in order to keep this Agreement in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event of any legal action instituted by a third party or other government entity or official challenging the validity of this Agreement, the City and OFI agree to cooperate in defending such action, with OFI to indemnify the City pursuant to this Agreement. In the event of any litigation challenging the effectiveness of this Agreement or any portion thereof, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect while such litigation, including any appellate review, is pending, unless a court of competent jurisdiction orders otherwise.

In 771
18 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) the event this Agreement is otherwise terminated or cancelled prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, OFI shall remove the Billboard and other improvements installed by OFI from the Property and restore the Property to its condition immediately prior to the date that City delivered control of the Property to OFI (reasonable wear and tear, damage or destruction by the acts of God beyond the control of OFI, and damage caused by parties other than OFI (and its employees and contractors) excepted), unless the City waives OFI’s removal obligation in writing. Notwithstanding the above, OFI shall not be required to remove those portions of the Billboard and other improvements made by OFI on the Property that are more than ten (10) feet below grade. OFI shall cause the removal as required under this Section within thirty (30) days from the end of the Initial Term or from the date of early termination, whichever the case may be. If OFI does not timely remove the Billboard and other improvements as required by this Section, City may, but shall not be required to, remove or cause the removal of the Billboard and other improvements on the Property at OFI's expense. OFI shall reimburse City within thirty (30) days of receipt of an itemized accounting of the cost for such removal and the restoration of the Property to its state immediately prior to the installation of the Billboard. City and OFI acknowledge and agree that OFI and its assigns shall be the exclusive owner and operator of the Billboard, and that all equipment comprising the Billboard shall remain the personal property of OFI and its assigns and shall not become fixtures of the Property. City shall have no right, title or interest in the Billboard or any component of the Billboard, notwithstanding the manner in which the Billboard is or may be physically attached, mounted or adhered to the Property.

36. Taxes. OFI shall pay without abatement, deduction, or offset any income taxes or possessory interest taxes levied on or assessed against the Billboard located on the Property, OFI’s equipment, fixtures, and personal property located on or in the Property, which are directly attributable to this Agreement or OFI’s use of the Property, whether belonging, owned, or chargeable against the City. OFI shall make all such payments directly to the charging authority prior to delinquency and before any fine, interest, or penalty becomes due or is imposed for OFI’s non-payment. Following prior request by City, OFI shall provide City with proof of payment of such tax.

37. Compliance Review. 37.1 Periodic Review. Pursuant to Government Code section 65865.1, the City Manager shall, not less than once in every twelve (12) months, review the Project and this Agreement to ascertain whether or not OFI is in full compliance with the terms of this Agreement (the "Periodic Review").

37.2 Review Procedure. During a Periodic Review, OFI shall provide information reasonably requested by the City Manager that the Project is being developed in good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon completion of a Periodic Review, the City Manager shall submit a report to the City Council setting forth the City Manager's findings. If, as a result of a Periodic Review, the City Council finds and determines on the basis of substantial evidence that OFI has not complied in good faith with the terms or conditions of this Agreement, the City shall issue a written "Notice of Noncompliance" to OFI specifying the grounds therefore and all facts demonstrating such noncompliance. OFI's failure to cure the alleged non-compliance within ninety (90) days after receipt of the notice, or, if such noncompliance is not capable of being cured within ninety (90) days, OFI's failure to initiate all 772
19 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) actions required to cure such noncompliance within ninety (90) days after receipt of the notice, shall constitute a default under this Agreement on the part of OFI and shall constitute grounds for the termination of this Agreement by the City as provided for below.

37.3 Termination or Modification for Non-Compliance. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65865.1, if the City Council finds and determines, on the basis of substantial evidence, that OFI has not complied in good faith with the terms or conditions of this Agreement, the City Council may modify or terminate this Agreement. Any action by the City with respect to the termination or modification of this Agreement shall comply with the notice and public hearing requirements of Government Code section 65865.1 in addition to any other notice required by law. Additionally, the City shall give OFI written notice of its intention to terminate or modify this Agreement and shall grant OFI a reasonable opportunity to be heard on the matter and to oppose such termination or modification by the City.

37.4 Modification. Amendment or Cancellation by Mutual Consent. Pursuant to Government Code section 65868, this Agreement may be amended or canceled, in whole or in part, by mutual written consent of the City and OFI or their successors in interest. Public notice of the parties’ intention to amend or cancel any portion of this Agreement shall be given in the manner provided by Government Code section 65867. Any amendment to the Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of Government Code section 65867.5.

37.5 Inurement and Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and bind the successors and assigns of the City and OFI and may be assigned by either the City or OFI to any party or parties pursuant to the requirements of this Section. The specific rights and obligations of this Agreement shall be deemed covenants running with the land that concern and affect the Property. Prior to OFI’s assignment of any rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, OFI shall present such information to the City as will reasonably demonstrate to the City’s satisfaction that the proposed assignee (the “Assignee”) has the financial ability and experience to fulfill those specific rights, duties and obligations under the Agreement that the Assignee will assume. The City shall have the right to approve the proposed Assignee, provided that the City’s approval may not be unreasonably withheld. Because this Agreement is a statutory Development Agreement, if City staff determine that they can recommend approval of the proposed Assignee, a public hearing before the Planning Commission and City Council will be necessary to approve the proposed amendment to this Agreement. If the City does not approve the Assignee, the City shall deliver notice to OFI of the reasons for the City’s disapproval of the Assignee. Once such approved assignment or succession has occurred and the Assignee has agreed to accept the applicable obligations under this Agreement, OFI shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement assumed by the Assignee with respect to the Property, or portion thereof, so transferred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, OFI shall not be required to obtain the City’s written consent prior to effecting a transfer of all or a portion of OFI’s interests to OFI member agencies Foster Interstate, LLC and Outfront Media, LLC.

38. Monetary Damages. OFI and the City acknowledge that neither the City nor OFI would have entered into this Agreement if either were liable for monetary damages under or with respect to this Agreement or the application thereof. Both the City and OFI agree and recognize that, as a practical matter, it may not be possible to determine an amount of monetary 773
20 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) damages which would adequately compensate OFI for its investment of time and financial resources in planning to arrive at the kind, location, intensity of use, and improvements for the Project, nor to calculate the consideration the City would require to enter into this Agreement to justify such exposure. Therefore, the City and OFI agree that neither shall be liable for monetary damages under or with respect to this Agreement or the application thereof and the City and OFI covenant not to sue for or claim any monetary damages for the breach of any provision of this Agreement. This foregoing waiver shall not be deemed to apply to any fees, payments, reimbursements or other monetary amounts specifically required to be paid by OFI to the City pursuant to this Agreement.

39. Specific Performance. OFI has invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement and it is not possible to determine the amount of monetary damages that would adequately compensate OFI for such efforts. Damages would not be an adequate remedy if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, and that OFI shall have the right to seek and obtain specific performance as a remedy for any breach of this Agreement. The City's remedy to terminate or amend this Agreement in the event of OFI's uncured breach shall be sufficient in most circumstances.

40. Administration of Agreement and Resolution of Disputes. OFI shall at all times have the right to appeal to the City Council any decision or determination made by any employee, agent or other representative of the City concerning the Project or the interpretation and administration of this Agreement. All City Council decisions or determinations regarding the Project or the administration of this Agreement shall also be subject to judicial review pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.5, provided that, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.6, any such action must be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction not later than ninety (90) days after the date on which the City Council's decision becomes final.

41. Recordation of this Agreement. Pursuant to Government Code section 65868.5, the City Clerk shall record a copy of this Agreement in the Official Records of Ventura County within ten (10) days after the mutual execution of this Agreement.

42. Constructive Notice and Acceptance. Every person or entity who now or hereafter owns or acquires any right, title or interest in or to any portion of the Property is, and shall be, conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision contained herein, whether or not any reference to this Agreement is contained in the instrument by which such person acquired an interest in the Property.

43. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the City, OFI and their respective successors and assigns. No other person or entity shall have any right of action based upon any provision of this Agreement.

44. Miscellaneous. 44.1 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be (as elected by the 774
21 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) person giving such notice) (i) hand delivered by messenger or courier service, (ii) by overnight delivery (including Federal Express), or (iii) by United States mail (postage prepaid), registered or certified, return receipt requested, addressed to the addresses set forth below. Each notice shall be deemed delivered (1) on the date delivered if by personal delivery, (2) on the date of delivery by the overnight delivery service if by overnight delivery, or (3) seventy-two (72) hours after deposit in the United States mail (postage prepaid) if by registered or certified mail. By giving to the other parties at least fifteen (15) days’ written notice, the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns shall have the right from time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address.

44.2 Severability. If any part of this Agreement is declared invalid for any reason, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the Agreement. The other parts of this Agreement shall remain in effect as if this Agreement had been executed without the invalid part. The City and OFI intend and desire that the remaining parts of this Agreement continue to be effective without any part or parts that have been declared invalid.

44.3 Entire Agreement; Conflicts. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the City and OFI with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the City and OFI with respect to the matters contained in this Agreement. Should any or all of the provisions of this Agreement be found to be in conflict with any other provision or provisions found in the Applicable Rules or the Subsequent Applicable Rules, then the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and prevail.

44.4 Further Assurances. The City and OFI agree to perform, from time to time, such further acts and to execute and deliver such further instruments reasonably necessary to effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement, provided that the intended obligations of the City and OFI are not thereby modified.

44.5 Negation of Agency. The City and OFI acknowledge that, in entering into and performing under this Agreement, each is acting as an independent entity and not as an agent of the other in any respect. Nothing contained herein or in any document executed in connection herewith shall be construed as making the City and OFI joint venturers, partners or employer/employee.

44.6 Attorneys' Fees. In the event of any claim, dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including an action for declaratory relief, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover its court costs and reasonable out of pocket expenses not limited to taxable costs, including, but not limited to telephone calls, photocopies, expert witness, travel, and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs to be fixed by the court. Such recovery shall include, but not limited to, court costs, out of pocket expenses and attorneys' fees on appeal, if any. The court shall determine who is the "prevailing party," whether or not the dispute or controversy proceeds to final judgment. If the City or OFI is reasonably required to incur such out of pocket expenses and attorneys' fees as a result of any claim arising out of or concerning this Agreement or any right or obligation derived hereunder, 776
23 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) then the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover such reasonable out of pocket expenses and attorneys' fees whether or not an action is filed.

44.7 Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought.

44.8 Estoppel Certificates. Within thirty (30) days following the receipt by City of a written request by OFI, the City shall execute and deliver to the requesting OFI a statement (an "estoppel certificate") certifying that (i) either this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect or there have been specified (date and nature) modifications to the Agreement, but it remains in full force and effect as modified; and (ii) either there are no known current uncured defaults under this Agreement or that the City alleges that specified (date and nature) defaults exist. The estoppel certificate shall also provide any other reasonable information requested. The failure to timely deliver a requested estoppel certificate shall constitute a conclusive presumption that this Agreement is in full force and effect without modification, except as may be represented by the requesting OFI, and that there are no uncured defaults in the performance of the requesting OFI, except as may be represented by the requesting OFI. The requesting OFI shall pay to City all reasonable administrative costs incurred by City in connection with the issuance of estoppel certificates under this Section prior to City's issuance of such certificates. Any such certificate may be and is intended to be relied upon by any person, including, but not limited to, the other Party, potential purchasers or lessees of all or any part of the Property, lenders or potential lenders.

44.9 Section Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience and identification only and shall not be deemed to limit or define the contents to which they relate.

44.10 Relationship of the Parties; Not Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not create any relationship or association between City and OFI other than that of landlord and tenant, and it is expressly understood and agreed that City does not in any way nor for any purpose become a partner of OFI or a joint venturer with OFI in the conduct of OFI’s business or otherwise; nor does this Agreement create between City and OFI the relationship of principal and agent. The parties do not intend to create any third-party beneficiaries to the Agreement.

44.11 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement, and all performances required hereunder shall be completed within the time periods specified. Any failure of performance shall be deemed as a material breach of this Agreement.

44.12 Counterparts. This Agreement and any modifications hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same force and effect as if executed in the form of a single document.

45. Indemnification.

45.2 General Indemnity. Except to the extent claims are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the City and its employees, agents and contractors, and not waived by OFI, OFI shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless City and its elected officials, officers, employees, volunteers, lenders, agents, and representatives and each of their successors and assigns from and against any and all third party claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, arising at any time during or after the Initial Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) any OFI default under this Agreement (including in the performance or non-performance of any obligation on OFI’s part to be performed under the terms of this Agreement); (b) OFI's performance of the design and construction of the Billboard; (c) OFI’s or OFI’s representatives or agents use of the Property, the Billboard, any portion thereof, or any improvements thereon, the conduct of OFI’s business or any activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by OFI or its representatives or agents in or about the Property or any portion thereof, or any improvements thereon, except that with regard to the presence of Hazardous Materials, the Property or any improvements thereon, OFI will not be responsible for conditions that existed prior to the date that City delivers exclusive control of the Property to OFI and, whether prior to the Effective Date or not, were not caused by OFI or its authorized representatives; and (d) any negligent or willful act, error or omission of OFI or its representatives or agents in or about the Billboard, any portion thereof, or any improvements thereon (collectively, “Indemnification”).

City will use its best efforts to avoid duplicative attorney work or appearances in order to keep litigation costs to a reasonable minimum. OFI further acknowledges and agrees that settlement of any Liabilities requires the consent of City. City agrees that its consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that OFI is financially able (based on demonstrated assets) to fulfill its obligation to indemnify City for the costs of any such settlement as required under this Agreement

45.3 Hazardous Materials. Except to the extent caused by City’s negligence or willful misconduct, caused by a third party or with regard to the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Property as of the date City delivers exclusive control of the Property to OFI, OFI shall indemnify, defend and hold City harmless from any claims, causes of action, liabilities, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, fines, penalties, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and consultant fees and expenses) caused or alleged to have been caused by OFI’s use, storage, handling, treatment, generation, discharge or release of Hazardous Materials in violation of OFI’s obligations under this Agreement, whether such claims, causes of action or liabilities are first asserted during the Initial Term or thereafter, and including claims made against City with respect to bodily injury, death or property damage sustained by third parties caused or alleged to have been caused by OFI’s use, storage, handling, treatment, generation, discharge or release of Hazardous Materials. For the purposes of clarification, the indemnity contained in this Section will be the sole indemnity OFI provides to the City with respect to Hazardous Materials and (b) OFI will not be responsible for nor indemnifies the City for any claims, causes of action, liabilities, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, fines, penalties, costs or expenses with respect to Hazardous Materials which do not directly result from OFI’s use, storage, handling, treatment, generation, discharge or of Hazardous Materials in violation of OFI’s obligations under this Agreement.

45.4 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Agreement will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years following termination.

26 Development Agreement and Lease of Real Property (RP Blvd. 1_5_23) been prepared jointly by City and OFI and has been the subject of arm's length and careful negotiation over a considerable period of time, that each party has been given the opportunity to independently review this Agreement with legal counsel, and that each party has the requisite experience and sophistication to understand, interpret, and agree to the particular language of the provisions hereof. Accordingly, in the event of an ambiguity in or dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed against the party preparing it, and instead other rules of interpretation and construction shall be utilized.

The California Highway Patrol’s (CHP) Ventura Area office received an Environmental Impact Report (SCH # 2022060706) for a proposed digital billboard adjacent to the US-101 Freeway, located within the City of Oxnard. The CHP Ventura Area was requested to evaluate the proposal; specifically, in regard to the potential impact it may have on departmental operations, public safety, increased calls to the communications center/dispatch, increased response times, and traffic congestion.

This proposed digital billboard, coupled with the two additional proposed digital billboards (SCH # 2022060700 and SCH # 2022060701), all adjacent to the US-101 Freeway within the City of Oxnard, will likely cause a drastic increase to traffic congestion already severely impacted in the region. There are currently two digital billboards adjacent to the US-101 Freeway within the City of Oxnard, thus adding three additional, there would be a total of five digital billboards within less than a four mile stretch along this portion of the Freeway. The magnitude of the project may place a greater strain on limited public safety resources with an expected increase in vehicular traffic on US-101. A potential delay of emergency response due to extended response times places the public at risk. The potential increase in traffic may cause an increase in motor services, crashes, and injuries to motorists. Consequently, these incidents will cause an increase in calls to the CHP Ventura Communications Center and dispatchers. The proposed area is currently experiencing significant growth with the construction of retail and residential properties. The digital sign(s) will exacerbate the traffic congestion and may create long-term detrimental impact to the residents, visitors, and first responders within the Ventura Area.

Should you have any questions, please contact Lieutenant Sergio Perez or myself at (805) 662- 2640.

Comment Letter A: California Highway Patrol – July 27, 2022 Comment A-1
The comment asserts that the proposed Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard along with the Ventura Road Electronic Billboard and potential additional electronic billboards implemented under the proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance could cause a drastic increase in traffic congestion along U.S. 101 within the City of Oxnard. The comment further states that the increase in traffic volumes and congestion on U.S. 101 would result in a potential delay on emergency response and could result in an increase in motor services, crashes, and injuries.

Response to Comment A-1
The implementation of the proposed electronic billboard along Riverpark Boulevard as well as additional electronic billboards including the Ventura Road Electronic Billboard and electronic billboards implemented under the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance would not result in a substantial amount of traffic. The proposed Riverpark Electronic Billboard would not generate any employment growth or population growth as discussed in Section 3.13 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND. The implementation of cumulative electronic billboards would not increase operational traffic volumes along U.S. 101. As discussed in Section 3.15 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND, construction activities would generate a nominal number of construction vehicular trips over an approximately two-week construction period.

The concerns raised in this comment do not appear to be a direct result of implementing electronic billboards, but may result from cumulative development throughout the City of Oxnard. Because the Project would not result in an increase in daily or weekly operational traffic volumes, the Project would not contribute to potential cumulative traffic volume increases along U.S. 101 that would contribute to increases in motor services, crashes, and injuries to motorists.

As discussed in Section 3.15 c) in the Public Review Draft IS/MND, the proposed billboard as well as future billboards implemented under the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance would be required to comply with all applicable laws and regulations concerning brightness, including, without limitation, California Building and Professions Code Section 5403(g) and California Vehicle Code Section 21466.5. The billboard proposes to include different images, but each image will be displayed for at least eight seconds and the images would not move or present the appearance of motion and would not flash or blink or any other means that does not provide a constant illumination. These features associated with the proposed electronic billboard would not substantially increase hazards to drivers along U.S. 101, and less than significant impacts would occur. Furthermore, the Project will require an Outdoor Advertising Act Permit from the California Department of Transportation to ensure that the proposed electronic billboard does not represent a danger to motorists traveling along U.S. 101. 820

Memorandum
TO: Joe Pearson II, Sr. Planner, City of Oxnard DATE: July 26, 2022 FROM: Nicole Collazo, Air Quality Specialist, Planning Division SUBJECT: Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard (RMA 22-019)
Air Pollution Control District (APCD) staff have reviewed the subject mitigated negative declaration (MND) of the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard project (project). The proposed project includes a request for approval of a Special Use Permit for the installation and operation of an LED electronic billboard. The electronic billboard would include a digital display of advertisements of various businesses, activities, services or products. The Lead Agency is the City of Oxnard. APCD submits the following comments for the project’s MND.

GENERAL COMMENTS
Air Quality Section
1) Item a, Page 18. VCOG is no longer responsible for developing the AQMP. This is language contained in our 2003 Ventura County Air Quality Assessment Guidelines and no longer applies.

The AQMP is developed by the APCD using SCAG’s population growth forecasts in its air quality modeling and forecasting. We recommend amending this section. We also note that our 2022 AQMP is currently in development and scheduled to be adopted at the end of 2022.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the project’s MND. If you have any questions, you may contact me at [email protected].

Comment Letter B: Ventura County Air Pollution Control District – July 26, 2022
Comment B-1
This comment states that the Ventura Council of Governments (VCOG) no longer responsible for developing the Ventura County Air Quality Management Plan (VCAQMP) but Ventura County APCD is responsible.

Response to Comment B-1
The City of Oxnard thanks the Ventura County Air Pollution Control District in clarifying that the VCOG no longer provides forecasted regional population, housing, and employment for the VCAQMP.

The fourth sentence of the first paragraph on page 18 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND is revised as follows:

VCAPCD and the Ventura Council Association of Governments (VCOG) are is responsible for preparing the air quality management plan (AQMP), which addresses federal and state Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements.

The second paragraph on page 18 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND is revised as follows:

The proposed Project is located within the Ventura County portion of the SCCAB, which is under the jurisdiction of the VCAPCD for air quality planning and control. As such, VCAPCD’s 2016 AQMP is the applicable air quality plan for the proposed Project.

Projects that are consistent with the regional population, housing, and employment forecasts identified by the VCAPCD VCOG are deemed consistent with the AQMP growth projections, since the forecast assumptions by VCAPCD VCOG forms the basis of the land use and transportation control portions of the AQMP. Additionally, because VCAPCD’s VCOG’s regional growth forecasts are based upon, among other things, land uses designated in general plans, a project that is consistent with the land use designated in a general plan would also be consistent with the VCAPCD’s VCOG’s regional forecast projections, and thus also with the AQMP growth projections. 822

Comment Letter C: County of Ventura Resources Management Agency, Planning Division – July 29, 2022
Comment C-1
This comment states that the Planning Division reviewed three separate Mitigated Negative Declaration (MNDs) related to the proposed Riverpark Electronic Billboard, potential additional electronic billboards implemented under the proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance and Ventura Road Electronic Billboard. The comment specifically states that the proposed Riverpark Electronic Billboard would be located approximately 1,800 feet from an unincorporated zone for residential high-density development. The comment asserts that the proposed Project may have direct and cumulative impacts on existing development and sensitive habitat in the County’s jurisdiction.

Response to Comment C-1
The potential Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Project would increase impacts to residential areas in the immediate vicinity of the site; however, nominal impacts to residents located approximately 1,800 feet from the Project site would occur due to distance. As discussed in Section 3.18 b) in the Public Review Draft IS/MND, the proposed Riverpark Electronic Billboard could result in potential significant impacts related to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species prior to the implementation of mitigation measures. With the implementation of Mitigation Measures BIO-1, CR-1, and CR-2, the potential impacts associated with the Project would be reduced to less than significant. Given that the potential related electronic billboard projects would need to occur at least 2,000 feet from the Project site and the Project impacts to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species are site specific and would not combine with potential impacts associated with other electronic billboards implemented along U.S. 101, the Project’s contribution to cumulative impacts would be considered less than cumulatively considerable and less than significant.

Comment C-2
This comment asserts that evaluating the cumulative impacts of the three projects that are addressed within the three separate Public Review Draft IS/MNDs is difficult and recommends that the City consolidates its review into one environmental document.

Response to Comment C-2
The potential effects resulting from the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance is evaluated at a Program-level and as each individual electronic billboard project is proposed, a project-level environmental evaluation will be required. The Riverpark Boulevard and Ventura Road Electronic Billboard Projects are evaluated at a Project-level, and specific impacts and applicable mitigation measures are provided in their respective Public Review Draft IS/MND. A discussion of cumulative impacts is provided for each Public Review Draft IS/MND in Section 832

3.18 b). The City thanks the County for their input, but will proceed with the separate IS/MNDs for the program and two specific projects.

Comment C-3
This comment states that an analysis of potential environmental impacts to unincorporated areas such as the El Rio/Del Norte and Nyeland Acres communities and sensitive biological resources adjacent to and in the vicinity of the proposed Project should be evaluated.

The comment also requests amendments to the draft Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance.

Response to Comment C-3
The Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Project is located approximately 1,000 feet from the El Rio/Del Norte community but located approximately two miles from the Nyeland Acres community. As discussed in Chapter 3 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND, the proposed Riverpark Electronic Billboard could result in potential significant impacts related to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species prior to the implementation of mitigation measures. With the implementation of Mitigation Measures BIO-1, CR-1, and CR-2, the potential impacts associated with the Project would be reduced to less than significant.

Additional potential impacts on residents and motorists such as views, light, glare, and noise from the implementation of the proposed Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard could occur, but the impacts would be less than significant as discussed in Chapter 3 of the Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Given that the potential related billboard projects (i.e., Ventura Road Electronic Billboard and additional electronic billboards implemented as part of the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance) would need to occur at least 2,000 feet from the Project site and the Project impacts to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species are site specific and would not combine with potential impacts associated with other electronic billboards implemented along U.S. 101, the Project’s contribution to cumulative impacts would be considered less than cumulatively considerable and less than significant.

Because the Project site is located approximately 1,000 feet from the El Rio/Del Norte unincorporated community, the request for amendments to the Ordinance is not applicable to the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Project. The Project’s specific potential impacts are evaluated in the Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Comment C-4
This comment references the proposed Ordinance and requests setbacks. 833

Comment C-5
This comment references the proposed Ordinance and requests more specific information on maximum heights.

Response to Comment C-5
Because this comment references the proposed Ordinance, it does not provide a specific comment on the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Comment C-6
This comment references the proposed Ordinance and requests more specific information on limiting the number of billboards.

Response to Comment C-6
Because this comment references the proposed Ordinance, it does not provide a specific comment on the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Comment C-7
This comment asserts that the City should take into consideration how the ordinance and proposed billboards would affect disadvantage communities and how public benefits will be provided to affected disadvantage communities.

Response to Comment C-7
The El Rio/Del Norte and Nyeland Acres communities are within the jurisdiction of the County of Ventura. These communities are outside of the City of Oxnard. Potential impacts associated with the construction and operation of the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Project would impact residents that are in close proximity to the Project site; however, less than significant impacts would occur to these residents as well as residents of the El Rio/Del Norte community. The Project would not impact the residents of the Nyeland Accres community because the Project site is located more than 3 miles to this unincorporated community.

Comment C-8
This comment asserts that all County and City applications for discretionary permits and all environmental documents for Projects should be sent to the Board of Supervisor’s Office for transmittal to the El Rio/Del Norte Municipal Advisory Council. 834

Response to Comment C-9
This comment does not address contents within the Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard Public Review Draft IS/MND. Therefore, no further response is required.

Comment C-10
This comment thanks the City for providing an opportunity to comment on the three Public Review Draft IS/MNDs for the proposed Ordinance and the electronic billboard projects. The County reiterated the request to provide the environmental documentation for the IS/MNDs into one environmental document.

Response to Comment C-10
As discussed in Response to Comment C-2, the potential effects resulting from the Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance is evaluated at a Program-level and as each individual electronic billboard project is proposed, a project-level environmental evaluation will be required. The Riverpark Boulevard and Ventura Road Electronic Billboard Projects are evaluated at a Project-level, and specific impacts and applicable mitigation measures are provided in their respective Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Mr. Pearson,
Were there any additional hearings on the electronic billboards since December 2021? Being on the interest list and not hearing anything since then, I assumed the proposal was abandoned. Was a migratory bird study performed as they may be impacted by the new light pollution?
Are there any ways to stop the ordnance from being changed and these being built? It's an incredibly bad idea for Oxnard that I'm willing to go to bat for. I appreciate any suggestions you have.

Thank you.

6. City Zoning: The zoning designation of the proposed Project is RiverPark Specific Plan with a Public
Facilities Land Use.

7. Description of Project:

The Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard is located between U.S. 101 and Riverpark Boulevard approximately 850 feet north of Vineyard Avenue. The Project site is located within the RiverPark Specific Plan “A” and was assessed as Public Facilities as part of the 2009 Addendum 8 to the RiverPark Specific Plan Final EIR. The implementation of the proposed Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard would require the approval of a Special Use Permit, Amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan, and a Development Agreement. The Project plans are provided in Appendix A.

Special Use Permit
The proposed Project includes a request for approval of a Special Use Permit for the installation and operation of an electronic billboard (Figure 3). The electronic billboard would include a digital display of advertisements of various businesses, activities, services or products. The proposed billboard would be supported by a pole that ranges in diameter from approximately 7 feet to 3 feet.

The pole would extend approximately 40 feet below ground and approximately 45.5 feet above ground. The portion of the pole above ground would be painted primarily gray except for the upper

10.5 feet that would be painted black. The top of the billboard would be 60 feet in height above the ground and the dimensions of the electronic billboard sign would be 14.5 feet in height and 48.5 feet in width (Figure 4). The existing ground level is at approximately the same elevation as the travel lanes along U.S. 101 and Riverpark Boulevard. The electronic billboard would have a twosided light-emitting diode (LED) digital display that would have dimensions of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width.

Electricity for the electronic billboard will be provided by electrical service located immediately adjacent to the Project site and require approximately 40 feet of trenching for the electrical connection. The average electricity use is approximately 150 kilowatt hour (kwh) per day and approximately 54,000 kwh per year. Lighting levels on the digital sign will not exceed 0.3 foot candles above ambient light from a distance of 250 feet, as measured according to standards of the Outdoor Advertising Association of America. Brightness shall not exceed 300 nitere (nits) or candela per square meter from sunset to sunrise. At all other times, brightness will not exceed 7,500 nits. Illumination shall be directed such that minimal light spill will occur on either side or the top or bottom of the sign face. A light sensor will be installed with the sign to measure ambient light levels and adjust light intensity and brightness based on ambient conditions. The electronic sign will not display any moving, flashing, scrolling, fading, brightening or animated text or video. The signage will be controlled remotely and include remote maintenance software. LED lighting has a directional nature, and the projected viewing angle values for the proposed sign will be +14.9°/-

34.6° vertically and ±45° horizontally. Louvers will be located above each row of lights to prevent light from projecting upward into the sky.

Construction activities would occur in approximately four days over a two-week period. Eight existing eucalyptus located on the north side of U.S. 101 are proposed to be removed which would require Caltrans approval because the trees are located within the U.S. 101 right-of-way. In addition, the Project includes removal of all dead wood located in the vicinity of the existing eucalyptus trees. The Project includes the placement of small multi-trunk accent trees with a maximum height of 15 feet along with low groundcover and shrubs (Figure 5). Up to two days will be required to drill the footing and haul/dispose of excess dirt and pour concrete to set the column.

After the concrete sets, the structure is built. Finally, the digital displays are built and set. 850
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 3 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
Specific Plan Amendment
The proposed Project will require an amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan. The amendment would include the addition of Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards within the Commercial Master Plan of the RiverPark Specific Plan. The specific revisions to the Specific Plan text is provided in Appendix B. The proposed revisions identify minimum and maximum lot dimensions as well as size and spacing of the billboards. These revisions would be consistent with the proposed Freeway Adjacent Digital Display Billboards Ordinance that is required to be approved prior to approval of the proposed Project.

8. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting
The area surrounding the Project site consists of a mix of residential and commercial land uses. To the west and south of the Project site, across U.S. 101, is the Esplanade Commercial Shopping Center. To the southeast are retail commercial uses adjacent to Vineyard Avenue. These commercial and retail land uses are zoned as RiverPark Specific Plan. On the northeast side of Riverpark Boulevard is a place of worship and single family residences that are part of the El Rio West neighborhood and zoned as a Multiple-Family Residential Planned Development and SingleFamily Residential Planned Development. To the north are the two and three story Paseo Del Rio Apartments, which are also a part of the RiverPark Specific Plan Area. Further to northeast within the RiverPark Specific Plan area are additional apartments that are three stories and beyond the apartments is the Collection shopping center.

9. Other public agencies whose approval is required
The proposed Project will require two separate permits from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Because the Project includes the removal of existing landscaping and the installation of new landscaping within the right-of-way of U.S. 101, an encroachment permit from Caltrans will be required. In addition, the proposed Project will require an Outdoor Advertising Act Permit from Caltrans to ensure the proposed electronic sign does not represent a danger to motorists traveling along U.S. 101. No additional permits, financing approval or participation agreement will be required from other public agencies.

10. Have California Native American tribes traditionally and culturally affiliated with the project area requested consultation pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1? If so, is there a plan for consultation that includes, for example, the determination of significance of impacts to tribal cultural resources, procedures regarding confidentiality, etc.?
The City of Oxnard sent a notification letter on November 23, 2021 to the Native American tribe that is on the City’s Assembly Bill (AB) 52 list (Appendix C). This list includes only one tribe, Barbareno/Ventureno Band of Mission Indians, that has requested notification of projects within the City in accordance with AB 52. The Barbareno/Ventureno Band of Mission Indians did not request consultation with the City of Oxnard regarding the proposed Project. 851

Discussion
a) Less than SignificantImpact. Based on a review of the Oxnard General Plan Background Report (City of Oxnard, 2006), there are scenic areas and view corridors within the City of Oxnard. The scenic areas and view corridors include local waterways, agricultural open space, beaches and coastline, scenic highways/roadways, and urban landscapes that maintain original historic architectural features and contain park/plaza features.

The proposed Project is located adjacent to U.S. 101 that is identified as part of the City’s Scenic Highway System along the entire length of U.S. 101 from the eastern city limits to the western city limits. The current views from U.S. 101 in the vicinity of the Project site include urban development such as commercial and residential uses. The view from motorists traveling northbound on U.S. 101 from Vineyard Avenue includes eucalyptus trees on both sides of the freeway, urban development on both sides of the freeway and a background view of the Coastal Mountain Range. The view from motorists traveling southbound on U.S. 101 from Oxnard Boulevard includes urban development (commercial and residential uses) on both sides of the freeway with landscaping providing partial obstruction of structures in some areas. This view also includes Caltrans signs and private commercial billboards associated with the RiverPark Specific Plan development.

Background views from the southbound lanes include a small portion of the hills of Point Mugu State Park that bound the southeastern portion of the City of Oxnard. 859
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 12 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
The implementation of the proposed amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan, Development Agreement and placement of the proposed electronic billboard on the Project site would result in the removal of six existing eucalyptus trees located on the north side of the U.S. 101 right-of-way, and the placement of a 60-foot high pole with an electronic billboard that would be 14.5 feet in height and 48.5 feet in width. No landscaping is proposed on the Project site. A visual simulation of the proposed electronic billboard is provided in the Project Plans located in Appendix A. The implementation of the Project would result in an impact on motorist views traveling along U.S. 101; however, this impact would not be considered a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista since the views of the Project area from U.S. 101 consist of urban development and the views of the proposed electronic billboard would add another typical view of an urban landscape (i.e., billboards and Caltrans signs) that occurs along U.S. 101. Northbound motorists’ background views would be minimally impacted because existing views include partial distant views of the Coastal Mountain Range. Southbound motorists’ background view will also be minimally impacted because existing views include partial distant views of the hills of Point Mugu State Park. Therefore, implementation of the proposed electronic billboard along with the removal of the existing eucalyptustrees adjacent to the Projectsite would result in less than significant effects on a scenic vista.
b) Less than SignificantImpact. The Project site is located along the north side of U.S. 101.

Currently, U.S. 101 is an eligible State scenic highway; however, it is not an official Statedesignated scenic highway (Caltrans, 2019). The nearest officially State-designated highway is State Route 33 located approximately 8 miles west of the Project site. Oxnard Boulevard is also an eligible State scenic highway as well as a City-designated scenic highway to U.S. 101. However, Oxnard Boulevard is approximately 0.3 to 0.5 mile west of the Project site and due to existing terrain as well as existing development, very limited views of the upper elevations of the proposed electronic billboard would be viewable.

These limited views would not substantially alter the characteristics of existing viewsfrom Oxnard Boulevard.

As described above, U.S. 101 is identified as a City of Oxnard scenic highway. As discussed, potential visual impacts from the implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would result in less than significant visual impacts in the existing urban area.

Based on a review of the Oxnard General Plan Background Report (City of Oxnard, 2006), there are no historic resources in the vicinity of the Project site. In addition, based on a site visit, there are no areas of rock outcroppings. The Project will remove six eucalyptus trees located along the north side of U.S. 101; however, these trees would be replaced with trees that will mature with lower heights (i.e., 15 feet). The Project also includes the planting of shrubs along U.S. 101 adjacent to the Project site. Less than significant visual impacts would occur with the removal of the existing vegetation within the U.S. 101 right-of-way. c) Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, the Project would add a structure to motorists’ view along the U.S. 101. The addition of the proposed electronic billboard would alter the existing visual characteristics along U.S. 101; however, because the area contains urban development and the proposed electronic billboard provides a typical view 860
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 13 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
of an urban landscape (i.e., billboards and Caltrans signs) that occurs along U.S. 101, the visual alteration caused by the Project would not be considered a substantial change.

Therefore, potential impacts from the visual alteration of adding the proposed electronic billboard to the visual landscape would be less than significant.

The City of Oxnard 2030 General Plan includes aesthetic policies to protect and enhance natural setting and scenic resources. A discussion of the Project’s consistency with the applicable aesthetic policies is provided below.

Policy ER-6.1 includes the incorporation of views in new development. This policy requires development to provide physical breaks to allow views into scenic vistas and view corridors. Because the proposed Project includes a free-standing electronic billboard, the implementation of the Project would not conflict with this policy because motorists would briefly view the proposed billboard as they travel along U.S. 101. Therefore, the Project would be consistent with this policy.

Policy ER-6.2 includes the protection and enhancement of major scenic resources including the surrounding mountains. As discussed above, motorists traveling northbound along U.S. 101 would have a background view of the Coastal Mountain Range; however, this background view would be bordered by foreground urban development. Therefore, the addition of the proposed electronic billboard would not substantially impact these background views of the mountain and thus would not conflict with this policy. Therefore, the Project would be consistent with this policy.

Policy ER-6.5 includes the control of light and glare. The policy requires advertising displays and billboards to use low-energy, shielded light fixtures which direct light downward and, where public safety would not be compromised, encourage the use of lowpressure sodium lighting for all outdoor fixtures. The proposed electronic billboard would utilize energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) technology, which is recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy as the most energy efficient lighting technology. The lighting of the proposed electronic billboard would be designed to allow the message on the display visible to passing motorists. The digital LED billboard technology allows sign brightness to be adjusted automatically depending on ambient weather conditions. The display, for example, would be brighter in the daytime than at night-time and responds to changes in the ambient light conditions. The proposed electronic billboard would require a California Department of Transportation Outdoor Advertising Act Permit from Caltrans. The proposed billboard would comply with the brightness requirements outlined in the Outdoor Advertising Act in that the illumination shall not be of such brilliance or so positioned as to cause a hazardous condition on adjacent highways. The implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would not conflict with this policy. Therefore, the Project would be consistent with this policy.

Based on a review of the existing City of Oxnard sign regulations within the City of Oxnard Municipal Code, the proposed electronic billboard is not currently an allowed use within the City of Oxnard. However, as discussed above, the implementation of the proposed 861
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 14 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
electronic billboard would result in less than significant impact to scenic vistas, scenic resources, and scenic highways, and the Project would result in a less than significant visual alteration of the existing visual characteristics as well as less than significant light and glare.
d) Less than Significant Impact. Currently, the Project site includes non-native grasses and disturbed areas as well as landscaping located along U.S. 101. The Project site is undeveloped and does not represent an existing negative view from the surrounding areas.

The addition of the proposed electronic billboard would alter the existing visual characteristics of the Project area; however, as discussed above, this alteration would be considered less than significant. Therefore, the addition of the proposed electronic billboard would not add to or compound to an existing negative view of the Project site, and as a result the Project’s impact would be less than significant. e) Less than Significant Impact. The operation of the proposed Project would increase nighttime lighting in the Project vicinity. Currently, the City of Oxnard does not have a quantitative exterior light standard. Typically, lighting is quantified using foot-candle (fc) which is the unit of measure expressing the quantity of light received on a surface. One foot-candle is the illuminance produced by a candle on a surface one-foot square from a distance of one foot.

Light pollution or obtrusive light is highly subjective. To address concerns with light pollution, recommendations to limit light trespass onto adjacent properties from the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) were reviewed. The CIE identifies a light trespass illuminance of 0.5 fc or greater for urban areas such as the Project site (CIE, 2003).

Therefore, due to the absence of a current local light pollution standard, a significant light impact on the adjacent residents would occur if light levels are 0.5 fc or greater.

The lighting associated with the proposed electronic billboard was evaluated within a Photometric Analysis provided in Appendix D. Lighting from the billboard would be directed toward the travel lanes along U.S. 101. Louvers will be located above each row of lights to prevent light from projecting upward into the sky. As discussed above, the digital LED billboard technology allows sign brightness to be adjusted automatically depending on ambient weather conditions. The display, for example, would be brighter in the daytime than at night-time and responds to changes in the ambient light conditions.

The nearest residencesto the Project site are located approximately150 feet to the north and northeast. Based on the Photometric Analysis provided in Appendix D, the light levels at the residential areas north and northeast of the site and east of Riverpark Boulevard would be less than 0.2 fc. Because the light level would be less than 0.5 fc, the Project would result in a less than significant lighting impact on the adjacent residential uses.

To ensure that the images on the electronic billboard do not cause hazardous conditions to motorists, the billboard may show a series of still images, each displayed for at least eight seconds. The still images may not move or present the appearance of motion and may not use flashing or blinking lights or any other means not providing constant 862

illumination. Transition or blank screen time between one still image and the next may not exceed one second. The implementation of these design features as well as complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including the Highway Beautification Act of 1965 (23 United States Code Section 131) and the Outdoor Advertising Act (California Business and Professions Code Section 5200 et seq.), when constructing, operating, improving, maintaining, and repairing the proposed billboard would reduce potential light and glare impacts from the proposed electronic billboard to less than significant.

Lighting from the proposed billboard would be primarily directed towards the travel lanes along U.S. 101. The proposed billboard will be angled as shown in Figure 4 so that lighting onto adjacent land uses (i.e., the residences north and northeast of the site) would be minimized. Based on the photometric analysis provided in Appendix D, lighting levels at the adjacent residences would be minimized and would be less than 0.5 fc. Therefore, the operation of the proposed electronic billboard would not result in a substantial light increase and would result in a less than significant impact on daytime or nighttime views.

Although less than significant lighting impacts would occur, the following mitigation measures are recommended to further reduce less than significant light impacts.

Mitigation Measure AES-1: The proposed light emitting diode (LED) billboard shall include an operating mechanism (hardware or software controlled) that turns off the display or turns it to all black in the event of a malfunction or failure in any system or subsystem that results in the display wholly or partly appearing to flash.

Mitigation Measure AES-2: Within 14 days of the proposed electronic billboard being operational, annually, and as required by City staff (i.e., after maintenance, malfunctions, multiple complaints), the Applicant shall submit to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director thereafter as, of the freeway sign being operational, annually, and as required by City staff (after maintenance, malfunctions, multiple complaints) the applicant shall submit to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director the following information:
• A third party test conducted after installation to verify that the electronic billboard complies with the requirements not to exceed 0.3 foot-candle above ambient light at 250 feet from the face of the electronic billboard or exceed 0.5 foot-candle at any residential uses.

As identified above, the implementation of the above mitigation measures would further reduce a less than significant impact.

a) No Impact. The Project site is currently identified as Urban and Built-Up Land and not designated as Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, Farmland, or Statewide Importance based on a review of the California Department of Conservation’s California Important Farmland Finder (CDC, 2016). Therefore, the implementation of the proposed Project would not convert farmland to an urban use, and no impact to farmland would occur. b) No Impact. Williamson Act contracts are formed between a county or city and a landowner for the purposes of restricting specific parcels of land to agricultural preserve areas. The Project site does not contain any agricultural uses. It is currently zoned for Specific Plan with a Public Facilities land use. Because there are no active Williamson Act contracts associated with the Project site, the Project would not conflict with existing agricultural zoning or a Williamson Act contract. No Project impact would occur. c) No Impact. Because there are no agricultural or forest lands located in the immediate vicinity of the Project site, the construction and operation of the proposed electronic billboard would not involve other changes in the existing environment that would result in the conversion of agricultural or forest lands. No impacts would occur.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. Ventura County Air Pollution Control District (VCAPCD) is responsible for attaining and maintaining air quality standards in the Ventura County portion of the South Central Coast Air Basin (SCCAB) through a comprehensive program of planning, regulation, enforcement, technical innovation, and promotion of the understanding of air quality issues. The clean air strategy of VCAPCD includes preparation of plans for attainment of ambient air quality standards, adoption and enforcement of rules and regulations concerning sources of air pollution, and issuance of permits for stationary sources of air pollution. The Ventura County portion of the SCCAB is designated as nonattainment for ozone for the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS) and for respirable particulate matter 10 micrometers in diameter and smaller (PM10) for the CAAQS. VCAPCD and the Ventura Council Association of Governments (VCOG) are responsible for preparing the air quality management plan (AQMP), which addresses federal and state Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements. The VCAPCD has adopted Air Quality Management Plans (AQMPs) to meet the CAAQS and NAAQS. The VCAPCD Governing Board adopted the 2016 AQMP on February 14, 2017. The goals of the VCAQMP are to ensure that city and county population growth do not interfere with emission reductions and progress in meeting the state and national ambient air quality standards.

Projects that are consistent with the regional population, housing, and employment forecasts identified by VCOG are deemed consistent with the AQMP growth projections, since the forecast assumptions by VCOG forms the basis of the land use and transportation control portions of the AQMP. Additionally, because VCOG’s regional growth forecasts are based upon, among other things, land uses designated in general plans, a project that is consistent with the land use designated in a general plan would also be consistent with the VCOG’s regional forecast projections, and thus also with the AQMP growth projections. 866

The billboard Project would generate temporary emissions that would occur during the construction associated with installation activities. These emissions would be short-term in nature (approximately 4 days of construction for the billboard installation) over a twoweek period. The billboard operations would not generate additional employment or population growth or transportation impacts from increased vehicle trips. Ongoing operation of the billboards would require power in the form of purchased electricity and would not generate any direct emissions of criteria pollutants or ozone precursors at the Project site, aside from minimal emissions from occasional site visits for maintenance or repairs.

The VCAPCD Ventura County Air Quality Assessment Guidelines exempts projects with de minimis emissions from Consistency Assessments. According to Section 4.2.1, Projects Exempt from Consistency Assessments, a project that conforms to the applicable General Plan designation and has emissions below two pounds per day of reactive organic compounds (ROC), and below two pounds per day of nitrogen oxides (NOX), is not required to assess consistency with the AQMP. According to Section 5.2, Calculating Ozone Precursor Emissions from Project Construction, the VCAPCD does not consider emissions from construction activities towards VCAPCD thresholds since construction emissions are temporary.

The Project would not generate air pollutant emissions during operations, and is thus not required to assess consistency with the AQMP. Further, as discussed above, the billboard operations would not generate additional employment or population growth or transportation impacts from increased vehicle trips. Therefore, the Project would have no impact with respect to conflicts with or obstruction of implementation of the applicable air quality plan.
b) Less than Significant Impact. The City of Oxnard has not developed specific air quality thresholds for air quality impacts. However, as stated in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the above determinations. As such, the significance thresholds and analysis methodologies in VCAPCD’s CEQA Air Quality Handbook are used in evaluating Project impacts. The VCAPCD’s CEQA Air Quality Handbook focuses on reducing ozone precursor emissions, which includes ROCs (also referred to as volatile organic compounds [VOCs]) and NOX because emissions of these pollutants could jeopardize attainment of the NAAQS and CAAQS for ozone in Ventura County. The other criteria pollutants of concern include: carbon monoxide (CO), which is a colorless and odorless gas and can cause dizziness, confusion, unconsciousness or even death at high levels; sulfur dioxide (SO2), which is also colorless and can cause asthma exacerbation, including bronchoconstriction accompanied by symptoms of respiratory irritation, such as wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness; and PM10 and fine particulate matter 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter (PM2.5), which can worsen respiratory diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, leading to hospitalization and emergency department visits and respiratory mortality. The 867

VCAPCD has not established mass emission significance thresholds for CO, SO2, PM10 or PM2.5.

Construction
Construction emissions from projects are considered short term and temporary but could adversely affect air quality. Emissions of ozone precursors and particulate matter are potential concernsin theVentura County portion of the SCCAB since the area is designated as nonattainment for ozone (NAAQS and CAAQA) and PM10 (CAAQS). Emissions of ozone precursors ROC and NOX are primarily generated from heavy-duty equipment and motor vehicle exhaust and vary as a function of vehicle trips per day associated with soil hauling, delivery of construction materials, and worker commute trips, and the types and number of heavy-duty, off-road equipment used and the intensity and frequency of their operation. Particulate matter (i.e., PM10 and PM2.5) is among the pollutants of greatest localized concern with respect to construction activities given that particulate concentrations tend to be higher near the source of the emissions. Particulate emissions from construction activities can lead to adverse health effects and nuisance concerns, such as reduced visibility and soiling of exposed surfaces. Particulate emissions can result from a variety of construction activities, including drilling/excavation, vehicle travel on paved and unpaved surfaces, and vehicle and equipment exhaust. Construction emissions of PM can vary greatly depending on the level of activity, the specific operations taking place, the number and types of equipment operated, local soil conditions, weather conditions, and the amount of earth disturbance.

Proposed construction activities associated with billboard installations would generate temporary pollutant emissions from the following construction activities: (1) drilling and haul of excavated soil; (2) column set/concrete pour; (3) build and set of the billboard structure; and (4) build & set digital displays. These construction activities would create emissions of dust, fumes, equipment exhaust, and other air contaminants. The daily quantity of emissions generated would vary, depending on the intensity and types of construction activities occurring during each task.

Construction emissions from the proposed billboard Project is estimated to require four days of construction activity. For the purposes of the air quality analysis, the construction activities were modeled for the earliest potential time frame to provide for a conservative analysis. Construction of the Project is assumed to occur in 2022. If construction occurs subsequent to 2022, the emissions presented in this IS/MND would be conservative as emissions occurring in future years would be lower than those calculated for 2022 due to the use of a more energy-efficient and cleaner burning construction vehicle fleet mix, pursuant to State regulations that require vehicle fleet operators to phase-in less polluting heavy-duty equipment. Assumptions, including information on equipment horsepower, hours of operation, vehicle trip distances and the model output, are included in Appendix E. CalEEMod version 2020.4.0 was used with Ventura County defaults whenever appropriate to ensure a location specific, but generic emission model that would apply to a range of installation scenarios.

It is mandatory for all construction projects in the SCCAB to comply with VCAPCD Rule 55 for controlling fugitive dust. Incorporating Rule 55 into the proposed Project reduces regional PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from construction activities. Specific Rule 55 control requirements may include, but are not limited to, applying water in sufficient quantities to prevent the generation of visible dust plumes, applying soil binders to uncovered areas, reestablishing ground cover as quickly as possible, covering all trucks hauling soil with a fabric cover and maintaining a freeboard height of 12 inches, and maintaining effective cover over exposed areas. Compliance with Rule 55 was accounted for in the construction emissions modeling.

Ventura County Guidance specifies that construction-related emissions are not counted towards the significance thresholds for the ozone precursors (ROC and NOX) since the emissions are temporary. However, they should be mitigated if they are predicted to exceed the threshold level (25 pounds per day of ROC or NOX in the Project area).

The VCAPCD has not established a quantitative threshold for fugitive dust emissions, but provides qualitative criteria in its Air Quality Assessment Guidelines.

A project that may be reasonably expected to generate fugitive dust emissions in such quantities as to cause injury, detriment, nuisance, or annoyance to any considerable number of persons or to the public, or which may endanger the comfort, repose, health, or safety of any such person or the public, or which may cause, or have a natural tendency to cause, 869
Environmental Checklist

injury or damage to business or property (see California Health and Safety Code, Division 26, §41700) will have a significant adverse air quality impact.

Table AQ-2, Maximum Daily Total Construction Emissions, summarizes the estimated emissions of criteria air pollutants and ozone precursors associated with a typical billboard installation for each individual construction phase (day) along with the maximum daily emissions. These emissions are compared to VCAPCD’s daily operational significance threshold for ROG and NOX emissions to determine if mitigation should be implemented.

As shown, the maximum daily emissions would be below the operational thresholds.

Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any significant construction emission impacts for these nonattainment pollutants, nor require any mitigation measures beyond those incorporated into the Project design (e.g., fugitive dust control according to VCAPCD Rule 55, compliance with state truck regulations).

Operation
Proposed operational activities associated with the operation of the proposed electronic billboard would not generate any direct emissions of criteria pollutant and ozone precursors. Furthermore, the operation of the billboard would not generate any employment or population growth and related emissions nor any additional daily vehicle trips or transportation related emissions of criteria pollutants or ozone precursors (minimal emissions from occasional site visits for maintenance or repairs may occur periodically).

The operation of the billboard would not result in emissions of ozone precursors in excess of the ROC and NOX operational significance thresholds, and impacts from these pollutants would be less than significant. Operation of the billboard would also not generate PM10 or PM2.5 emissions from fugitive dust are minimal and would not cause injury, nuisance 870

or health impacts to a significant number of persons of the public. Therefore, impacts from fugitive dust (PM10 and PM2.5) emissions would be less than significant.

Cumulative
The geographic scope for regional air quality impacts consists of the air basin(s) in which Project emissions would occur. The VCAPCD’s approach for assessing cumulative impacts is based on attainment of ambient air quality standards in accordance with the requirements of the CAA and California Clean Air Act. As discussed earlier, the VCAPCD has developed a comprehensive plan, the 2016 AQMP, which addresses the region’s cumulative air quality condition. CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(h)(3) provides guidance in determining the significance of cumulative impacts, stating in part that:

A lead agency may determine that a project’s incremental contribution to a cumulative effect is not cumulatively considerable if the project will comply with the requirements in a previously approved plan or mitigation program which provides specific requirements that will avoid or substantially lessen the cumulative problem (e.g., water quality control plan, air quality plan, integrated waste management plan) within the geographic area in which the project is located. Such plans or programs must be specified in law or adopted by the public agency with jurisdiction over the affected resources through a public review process to implement, interpret, or make specific the law enforced or administered by the public agency.

For purposes of the cumulative air quality analysis with respect to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(h)(3), the proposed Project’s incremental contribution to cumulative air quality impacts is determined based on compliance with the VCAPCD’s adopted 2016 AQMP. With respect to the Project’s short-term construction-related air quality emissions and cumulative conditions, VCAPCD has developed strategies to reduce criteria pollutant emissions outlined in the AQMP pursuant to the federal CAA mandates. Construction of the Project would comply with VCAPCD Rule 55 fugitive dust control requirements and the ATCM to limit heavy duty diesel motor vehicle idling to no more than five minutes at any location. These measures would also be imposed on trucks used for construction in the State, which would include the cumulative projects in the Project area. Additionally, with respect to operational emissions, the Project’s emissions would be less than the significance thresholds, and the Project would not conflict with the AQMP. Since the Project’s construction and operational emissions would not exceed the VCAPCD’s regional significance thresholds, and the proposed Project would not conflict with the AQMP, cumulative construction and operational impacts would be less than significant. c) Less than Significant Impact. Sensitive receptors are individuals who are considered more sensitive to air pollutantsthan others. The reasons for greater than average sensitivity may include pre-existing health problems, proximity to emissions sources, or duration of exposure to air pollutants. Schools, hospitals, and convalescent homes are considered as relatively sensitive to poor air quality because children, elderly people, and the infirm are more susceptible to respiratory distress and other air quality-related health problems than 871
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 24 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
the general public. Residential areas are considered sensitive to poor air quality because people usually stay home for extended periods of time, with associated greater exposure to ambient air quality. Because the installation of the proposed billboard would occur approximately 150 feet from an existing residence, construction air emissions would disperse in the environment and decrease with distance from the source. The limited emissions from construction activities would not cause a significant impact to sensitive receptors as discussed below.

Carbon Monoxide Hotspots
Emissions of CO are generated in greatest quantities from motor vehicle combustion of fossil fuels and are usually concentrated at or near ground level because they do not readily disperse into the atmosphere, particularly under cool, stable (i.e., low or no wind) atmospheric conditions. Localized areas where ambient concentrations exceed State and/or federal standards are termed CO hotspots. Traffic impacts and the potential for CO hot spots from the operation of motor vehicles related construction of the proposed Project would be minimal as there are less than 20 additional one-way trips per day from construction related haul vehicles and construction worker automobiles combined. In fact, the VCAPCD requires a screening analysis to determine the potential for CO Hotspots for any project with indirect emissions greater than the applicable ozone (ROG and NOx) project significance levels as analyzed in Section 3.3 b) above where roadway intersections are currently operating at or are expected to operate at a Level of Service (LOS) of E or F.

As indicated in Table AQ-2 above, the proposed Project would be below significance thresholds for ROG and NOX, indicating the low potential for Project impacts.

Operation of the billboards would not result in any regular vehicular activity, though there may be the occasional site visit for maintenance or repairs. These would result in negligible emissions and result in a negligible impact on traffic, and impacts would be less than significant.

Localized Air Quality Impacts – TACs
Project construction would result in short-term emissions of diesel PM, a TAC. Diesel particulate matter poses a carcinogenic health risk that is measured using an exposure period of 70 years for a lifetime exposure or 30 years for a residential exposure. The exhaust of off-road heavy-duty diesel equipment would emit diesel particulate matter from off-road construction vehicles and from on-road cement trucks and haul trucks, delivery tractor trailers during the short construction phase for the proposed billboard. The dose to which receptors are exposed is the primary factor used to determine health risk (i.e., the potential exposure to TACs to be compared to applicable standards). Dose is a function of the concentration of a substance or substances in the environment and the duration of exposure to the substance. Dose is positively correlated with time, meaning that a longer exposure period would result in a higher exposure level for the maximally exposed individual. Thus, the risks estimated for a maximally exposed individual are higher if a fixed exposure occurs over a longer time period. According to the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), carcinogenic health risk assessments, which 872
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 25 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
determine the exposure of sensitive receptors to TAC emissions, should be based on a 70- year exposure period for a lifetime exposure or 30 years for a residential exposure; however, such assessments should be limited to the period or duration of activities associated with the proposed Project.

The construction period for the proposed billboard installation is approximately four days in duration over approximately two weeks and would not represent a significant dose.

Additionally, the billboard would be located approximately 150 feet from the nearest residence. Given the short duration of the construction activities, and the distance of the sensitive receptors from the Project, the proposed Project would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, and impacts would be less than significant.

Operation of the billboard would not result in any direct emissions, as it would utilize purchased electricity to power for lighting. Further, operation of the billboard would not generate daily vehicle trips or transportation related emissions of criteria pollutants or ozone precursors(minimal emissions from occasional site visits for maintenance or repairs may occur periodically). Therefore, implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would not result in emissions of TACs that would substantially impact sensitive receptors, and the impact would be less than significant.
d) Less than Significant Impact. During installation of billboard, diesel exhaust from diesel trucks and off-road construction equipment construction equipment may emit odors. Such odors would be a temporary source of nuisance to adjacent uses but would not affect a substantial number of people. As odors associated with Project construction would be temporary and intermittent in nature, the odors would not be considered as a significant environmental impact. Therefore, construction activities would result in less than significant impacts with respect to other emissions, including those leading to odors.

There are no direct emissions associated with the operation of the billboard, and operational impacts would not result in any odor impacts and, therefore, would be less than significant with respect to odors. The Project would not generate other emissions that would adversely affect a substantial number of people as discussed in Section 3.3 b) and c) above, and impacts would be less than significant.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. The Project site is located in a highly urbanized area of the City of Oxnard predominantly developed with commercial and residential uses. The Project site has non-native herbaceous and grassland vegetation as the dominant habitat, and the Project site is surrounded by ornamental trees, including eucalyptus. A database review showed that the Project site is not overlain within U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)-designated Critical Habitat for any special-status plant or wildlife species (USFWS 2022a). Additionally, the California Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) and California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Rare Plant Inventory identified 25 special-status species being recorded within the Oxnard USGS 7.5-minute quadrangle (CDFW 2022; CNPS 2022). Of these 25 special-status species, none of the species have potential to occur within or surrounding the Project site as the parcel is disturbed and developed, lacks suitable habitat, is adjacent to Highway 101, and is sparsely vegetated. Therefore, implementation of the Project would result in a less than significant impact on sensitive habitat or sensitive species.
874

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 27 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
b) No Impact. No riparian or other sensitive communities are known to occur within or surrounding the Projectsite. Although limited ornamental vegetation is present, the Project site consists of, and is surrounded by, developed and disturbed areas that lack natural vegetation. Therefore, the proposed Project would not have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural communities. No impact would occur. c) No Impact. Wetlands (including swamps, bogs, seasonal wetlands, seeps, marshes, and similar areas) are considered waters of the U.S., and are defined by USACE as “those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions” (33 CFR 328.3[b]; 40 CFR 230.3[t]). No wetland features are identified by the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) as occurring within or surrounding the Project site (USFWS 2022b). Therefore, no impact to wetlands would occur as a result of the proposed Project. d) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. As mentioned above in Sections

3.4 b) and 3.4 c), no surface water bodies, streams, or waterways occur within or surrounding the Project site making it unsuitable for migratory fish. Additionally, the Project site is highly disturbed and surrounded by commercial development making it unsuitable for wildlife to use as a migratory corridor or nursery site. Therefore, no impacts would occur.

While no special-status avian species are expected to nest within the Project site, all native bird species that occur within the Project site are protected from ‘take’ by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and California Fish and Game Code (CFGC). Limited suitable avian nesting habitat is present within or surrounding the Projectsite. However, many avian species are known to nest within ornamental shrubs and trees planted as part of existing landscaping and man-made structures and buildings. Therefore, the proposed Project may affect nesting birds as suitable habitat occurs for tree, shrub, and cavity-nesting birds within and surrounding the Project site. This potential effect is considered significant.

Mitigation Measure BIO-1: Vegetation removal shall be conducted between September 1 and January 31, outside the typical nesting season for birds in the region. If vegetation removal must occur during the typical nesting season (February 1 – August 31), a City-approved qualified biologist shall conduct a preconstruction survey for active nests within areas that will be subject to vegetation removal, construction noise, and/or ground disturbances, including a 100 to 300- foot buffer around existing trees and landscaped areas, to identify any potential active nests. Buffer distances can be adjusted at the discretion of the biologist based on the location of the nest, species, and surrounding land uses. If no sign of nesting activity is observed, construction may proceed without potential impacts to nesting birds.

If an active nest is observed during the pre-construction clearance survey, an adequate buffer determined by the City-approved qualified biologist shall be established around the active nest depending on sensitivity of the species and proximity to construction activity and impact areas. Onsite construction 875

monitoring may also be required to ensure that no direct or indirect impacts occur to the active nest or nesting activities. Construction activities shall be avoided within the buffer, unless otherwise approved by the monitoring biologist (e.g., vehicles could pass through buffer areas while jackhammering would be restricted). Buffers shall be clearly marked and defined to restrict certain activities where they could result in nest failure, and shall remain in place until nests are no longer active, as determined by the City-approved monitoring biologist.

Implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-1 would reduce potentially significant impacts to nesting birds during construction to less than significant. e) No Impact. The Project includes the removal of existing eucalyptus trees along U.S. 101 and the planting of drought tolerant tree species, including carpe myrtle, western redbud, and vitex. The removal of the existing eucalyptus trees within the U.S. 101 right-of-way will require approval of an encroachment permit from Caltrans. No trees or shrubs exist on the Project site and would not be removed as a result of implementing the proposed electronic billboard. Therefore, there are no applicable local (City of Oxnard) policies or ordinances protecting biological resources associated with the proposed Project. As a result, no impact would occur.
f) No Impact. The Project site does not occur within any habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan areas. Therefore, the proposed Project would not conflict with provisions of an adopted natural community conservation plan or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan, and no impact would occur.

a, b) Less than Significant Impact. State regulated GHGs include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), nitrogen trifluoride (NF3), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). CO2 is the most abundant GHG in the atmosphere. Not all GHGs exhibit the same ability to induce climate change; as a result, GHG contributions are commonly quantified in equivalent mass of CO2, denoted as CO2e. Mass emissions are calculated by converting pollutant specific emissions to CO2e emissions by applying the proper global warming potential (GWP) value. These GWP ratios are available from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and are published in the California Climate Action Registry (CCAR) General Reporting Protocol. By applying the GWP ratios, Project related CO2e emissions can be tabulated in metric tons per year.

Neither the City nor the VCAPCD have adopted a numerical significance threshold for assessing impacts related to GHG emissions from a project, and the City has not formally adopted a local plan for reducing GHG emissions. When no guidance exists under CEQA, the lead agency may look to and assess general compliance with comparable regulatory schemes. 1 In its January 2008 CEQA and Climate Change white paper, the California Air Pollution Control Officer’s Association (CAPCOA) identified a number of potential approaches for determining the significance of GHG emissions in CEQA documents. In its white paper, CAPCOA suggests making significance determinations on a case-by-case basis when no significance thresholds have been formally adopted by a lead agency.

Amendments to Section 15064.4 of the CEQA Guidelines were adopted to assist lead agencies in determining the significance of the impacts of GHG emissions. Consistent with 1 See Protect Historic Amador Waterways v. Amador Water Agency (2004) 116 Cal. App. 4th 1099, 1107 [“‘[A] lead agency’s use of existing environmental standards in determining the significance of a project’s environmental impacts is an effective means of promoting consistency in significance determinations and integrating CEQA environmental review activities with other environmental program planning and resolution.”’”].Lead agencies can, and often do, use regulatory agencies’ performance standards. A project’s compliance with these standards usually is presumed to provide an adequate level of protection for environmental resources. See, e.g., Cadiz Land Co. v.

Rail Cycle (2000) 83 Cal.App.4th 74, 99 (upholding use of regulatory agency performance standard). 877

existing CEQA practice, Section 15064.4 gives lead agencies the discretion to determine whether to assess those emissions quantitatively or qualitatively. If a qualitative analysis is used, in addition to quantification, this section recommends certain qualitative factors that may be used in the determination of significance (i.e., extent to which the project may increase or reduce GHG emissions compared to the existing environment; whether the project exceeds an applicable significance threshold; and extent to which the project complies with regulations or requirements adopted to implement a reduction or mitigation of GHGs). The amendments do not establish a threshold of significance; rather, lead agencies are granted discretion to establish significance thresholds for their respective jurisdictions, including looking to thresholds developed by other public agencies, or suggested by other experts, such as CAPCOA, so long as any threshold chosen is supported by substantial evidence (see Section 15064.7(c)). The California Natural Resources Agency has also clarified that the CEQA Guidelines amendments focus on the effects of GHG emissions as cumulative impacts, and that they should be analyzed in the context of CEQA’s requirements for cumulative impact analysis (see Section 15064(h)(3)).2 Although GHG emissions can be quantified, CARB, VCAPCD and the City of Oxnard have not adopted project-level significance thresholds for GHG emissions that would be applicable to the Project. The Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) released a technical advisory on CEQA and climate change that provided some guidance on assessing the significance of GHG emissions, and states that “lead agencies may undertake a project-by-project analysis, consistent with available guidance and current CEQA practice,” and that while “climate change is ultimately a cumulative impact, not every individual project that emits GHGs must necessarily be found to contribute to a significant cumulative impact on the environment.”3 Furthermore, the technical advisory states that “CEQA authorizes reliance on previously approved plans and mitigation programs that have adequately analyzed and mitigated GHG emissions to a less than significant level as a means to avoid or substantially reduce the cumulative impact of a project.”4 Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(h)(3), a project’s incremental contribution to a cumulative impact can be found not cumulatively considerable if the project would comply with an approved plan or mitigation program that provides specific requirements that will avoid or substantially lessen the cumulative problem within the geographic area of the project. 5 To qualify, such a plan or program must be specified in law or adopted by the public agency with jurisdiction over the affected resources through a public review process 2 See generally California Natural Resources Agency, Final Statement of Reasons for Regulatory Action (December 2009), pp. 11-13, 14, 16.

to implement, interpret, or make specific the law enforced or administered by the public agency. 6 Examples of such programs include a “water quality control plan, air quality attainment or maintenance plan, integrated waste management plan, habitat conservation plan, natural community conservation plan, [and] plans or regulations for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.”7Thus, CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(h)(3) allows a lead agency to make a finding of non-significance for GHG emissions if a project complies with a program and/or other regulatory schemes to reduce GHG emissions. 8 In the absence of any adopted, quantitative threshold, the Project would not have a significant effect on the environment if the Project is found to be consistent with the applicable regulatory plans and policies to reduce GHG emissions, including the emissions reduction measures discussed within CARB’s Climate Change Scoping Plan and City of Oxnard’s policies established for the purpose of increasing energy efficiency and reducing GHG emissions. The proposed Project would generate GHG emissions during construction of the Project from the use of off-road construction equipment and on-road trucks and construction worker vehicles. Once fully installed, the Project’s operations would generate GHG emissions from electrical consumption for the billboard lighting. The proposed electronic billboard is estimated to consume an average of approximately 150 kWh per day and approximately 54,000 kWh per year.

Emissions Estimates
Consistent with calculations in Section 3.3, Air Quality, construction emissions were forecasted by assuming a conservative estimate of construction activities (i.e., assuming all construction occurs at the earliest feasible date) and applying the mobile source emissions factors. The emissions were estimated using the CalEEMod software and EMFAC2017.

The output values used in this analysis were adjusted to be Project-specific based on equipment types and the construction schedule. These values were then applied to the same construction phasing assumptions used in the criteria pollutant analysis in Section 3.3, Air Quality, to generate GHG emissions values for the proposed Project (Appendix F includes the assumptions and modeling). Industry standards recommend that construction Project GHG emissions should be “amortized over a 30-year Project lifetime, so that construction GHG emissions are included as part of the operational GHG life cycle. In accordance with 6 14 CCR § 15064(h)(3).
7 14 CCR § 15064(h)(3).
8 See, for example, San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD), CEQA Determinations of Significance for Projects Subject to ARB’s GHG Cap-and-Trade Regulation, APR-2025 (June 25, 2014), in which the SJVAPCD “determined that GHG emissions increases that are covered under ABR’s Cap-and-Trade regulation cannot constitute significant increases under CEQA…” Furthermore, the SCAQMD has taken this position in CEQA documents it has produced as a lead agency. The SCAQMD has prepared three Negative Declarations and one Draft Environmental Impact Report that demonstrate the SCAQMD has applied its 10,000 MTCO2e/yr significance threshold in such a way that GHG emissions covered by the Cap-and-Trade Program do not constitute emissions that must be measured against the threshold.

this, GHG emissions from construction have been amortized over the 30-year lifetime of the Project and are added to the operational emissions for the determination of significance.

Total estimated construction-related GHG emissions for the Project are estimated at 1.77 metric tons of CO2e (MTCO2e) for off-road construction equipment and 1.38 MTCO2e per year for on-road vehicles for a total of 3.1 MTCO2e. This would equal to approximately

0.1 MTCO2e per year after amortization over 30 years. The construction related GHG emissions are summarized in Table GHG-1, GHG Emissions from Project Construction.

Emissions of GHGs were estimated for operation of the proposed electronic billboard from electricity usage in base year 2022 (based on 2021 energy intensity factor where renewable sources are projected to account for approximately 35 percent of SCEs overall energy mix) and were extrapolated for several milestone years (2030 based on 60 percent renewable sources as required by Senate Bill 100 and 2040 based on 85 percent renewable energy sources) based on a linear projection of 100 percent renewable in 2045 as targeted in SB 100. GHG emissions from construction activities are not adjusted for future year GHG reductions that will occur from medium- and heavy-duty emissions regulations at the federal and state level that will phase in lower emitting, and potentially electric-powered, trucks and equipment over time. This analysis conservatively assumed that the construction equipment and on-road vehicles would be diesel fueled in future years. The operational related GHG emissions are summarized in Table GHG-2, GHG Emissions from Project Operations.

Compliance with Applicable Plans, Policies, or Regulations Assembly Bill 32/Senate Bill 32 and Executive Order B-30-15 In support of Assembly Bill 32 and Senate Bill 32, the state has promulgated specific laws aimed at GHG reductions applicable to the Project. Executive Order B-30-15 sets a goal of Statewide GHG emissions 40 percent less than 1990 levels by 2030 (this goal was codified in Senate Bill 32). In order to achieve the Statewide GHG reduction target, CARB is required to adopt a Climate Change Scoping Plan that outlines GHG reduction strategies.

The Project would generate GHG emissions due to construction and operational activities; however, its annual GHG emissions would be minimized due to the utilization of fuelefficient equipment consistent with State and federal regulations, such as fuel efficiency regulations in accordance with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Pavley Phase II standards, the anti-idling regulation in accordance with Section 2485 in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, and fuel requirements in accordance with Section 93115 in Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations. The Project would also utilize energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) technology, which is recognized by the U.S.

Department of Energy as the most energy efficient lighting technology (U.S. DOE, n.d.).

The Project’s potential to generate GHG emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment and conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of GHGs is discussed below.
2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan
According to the CARB 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan, reductions needed to achieve the 2030 goal are expected to be achieved by targeting specific emission sectors, including those sectors that are not directly controlled or influenced by the Project, but nonetheless contribute to Project-related GHG emissions. Table GHG-3, Project Compliance with Applicable 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan Actions and Strategies, contains a list of GHG emission reduction actions and strategies from the 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan that would be applicable and relevant to the Project and describes the Project’s compliance with those applicable actions and strategies. 881

Senate Bill 350 (SB 350):

The Clean Energy and Pollution Reduction
Act of 2015 increases the standards of the
California Renewable Portfolio Standard
(RPS) program by requiring that the amount of
electricity generated and sold to retail
customers per year from eligible renewable
energy resources be increased to 50 percent
by 2030.a
Required measures include:

Increase RPS to 50 percent of retail sales by
2030.

Establish annual targets for statewide energy
efficiency savings and demand reduction that
will achieve a cumulative doubling of
statewide energy efficiency savings in
electricity and natural gas end uses by 2030.

Reduce GHG emissions in the electricity
sector through the implementation of the
above measures and other actions as
modeled in IRPs to meet GHG emissions
reductions planning targets in the IRP
process. Load-serving entities and publicly
owned utilities meet GHG emissions
reductions planning targets through a
combination of measures as described in
IRPs.

CPUC, CEC, CARB No Conflict. The Project would use electricity provided by Southern California Edison (SCE), which
is required to meet the energy performance standard
of 60 percent renewable energy by 2030 pursuant to
Senate Bill 100 (which was adopted after SB 350
and is a more stringent target). The Project would
not conflict with this action and strategy.

Implement Mobile Source Strategy (Cleaner
Technology and Fuels):
• Implementation of federal phase 2
standards for medium- and heavy-duty
vehicles.

CARB, CalSTA,
SGC, Caltrans,
CEC, OPR, Local
Agencies
No Conflict. In 2011 the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) and National Highway
Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA)
announced fuel economy and GHG standards for
medium- and heavy-duty trucks for model years
2014–2018. The standards for CO2 emissions and
fuel consumption are tailored to three main vehicle
categories: combination tractors, heavy-duty pickup
trucks and vans, and vocational vehicles. According
to the USEPA, this regulatory program would reduce
GHG emissions and fuel consumption for the
affected vehicles by 6 to 23 percent over the 2010
baseline. Building on the first phase of standards, in
August 2016, the USEPA and NHTSA finalized
Phase 2 standards for medium and heavy-duty
vehicles through model year 2027 that will improve
fuel efficiency and cut carbon pollution. The Phase 2
standards are expected to lower CO2 emissions by
approximately 1.1 billion metric tons.

Project-related heavy-duty mobile source GHG
emissions would be reduced accordingly as the
phase-in of lower emitting trucks occurs in
compliance with the regulation. The Project would
not conflict with this action and strategy.

Actions and Strategies
Responsible
Party(ies) Compliance Analysis
Adopt a Low Carbon Fuel Standard with a
CI reduction of 18 percent.

CARB No Conflict. This regulatory program applies to fuel suppliers, not directly to land use development. GHG
emissions related to vehicular travel associated with
the Project would benefit from this regulation
because fuel used by Project-related vehicles would
be required to comply with Low Carbon Fuel
Standard (LCFS). Mobile source GHG emissions
provided in Table GHG-1 were calculated using
CalEEMod and EMFAC. However, CalEEMod and
EMFAC do not fully include implementation of the
LCFS into mobile source emission factors. Thus,
Table GHG-1 provides conservatively estimated
GHG emissions.

On September 27, 2018, CARB approved an
amendment to the LCFS regulation to require a 20
percent reduction in carbon intensity from a 2010
baseline by 2030. Reductions in carbon intensity are
phased in starting in 2019 with a reduction of 6.25
percent and increases by 1.25 percent each year.

Thus, in 2021, LCFS emissions reductions are 8.75
percent reduced carbon intensity relative to the 2010
baseline. Project-related mobile source GHG
emissions would be reduced accordingly, and would
increase as LCFS compliance increases to 20
percent reduce carbon intensity by 2030 relative to
the 2010 baseline year. The Project would not
conflict with this action and strategy.

Implement the post-2020 Cap-and-Trade
Program with declining annual caps.

CARB No Conflict. Assembly Bill 398 (AB 398) was
enacted in 2017 to extend and clarify the role of the
State’s Cap-and-Trade Program from January 1,
2021, through December 31, 2030. As part of AB
398, refinements were made to the Cap-and-Trade
program to establish updated protocols and
allocation of proceeds to reduce GHG emissions.

Under the Cap-and-Trade program, entities such as
power generation companies and natural gas
processing plants would be required to limit or
reduce GHG emissions. While the Project itself is not
a regulated entity under the Cap-and-Trade
Program, it would result in a reduction of GHG
emissions associated with the Project’s energy
usage, since energy supplied to the Project would be
from a regulated entity. As the Project would not
impede the Program’s progress, the Project is
considered compliant. The Project would not conflict
with this action and strategy.

City of Oxnard 2030 General Plan and Energy Action Plan The City of Oxnard adopted its 2030 General Plan in October 2011 and includes amendments through December 2016. The 2030 General Plan includes the following applicable goals and implementing policies aimed to reduce GHG emissions. • Goal SC-3 Energy Generation and Increased Efficiency. Energy efficiency performance standards and generation from renewable sources. – General Plan Policy SC-3.10, Alternatives to Power Plant Generation:

Evaluate the feasibility of incorporating alternative sources of power generation such as wind and tidal power into the regional existing power supply grid to reduce reliance on GHG emission producing public utility and privately-owned power plants.

The Oxnard General Plan Goal SC-3 addresses energy efficiency performance standards and generation from renewable sources and includes Policy SC-3.10, which has the goal of incorporating alternative sources of power generation such as wind and tidal power into the regional existing power supply grid to reduce reliance on GHG emission producing public utility and privately-owned power plants. This policy would support the availability of progressively clean forms of electricity, which would minimize the energy impact and GHG emissions from the Project. The Project would not conflict with this action and strategy.

As discussed above, GHG emissions for the Project have been analyzed and disclosed demonstrating that the Project would not generate GHG emissions that would have a significant impact and that the Project would not conflict with applicable plans, policies, and regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of GHGs. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
c) Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, the proposed electronic billboard would result in the annual generation of greenhouse gas emissions that would contribute to potential secondary effects of climate change; however, due to the relatively small amount of annual greenhouse gas emissions (less than 10 MTCO2e and progressively reducing in future years as shown in Table GHG-2), the Project’s contribution to climate change impacts is nominal and considered less than significant.

a) No Impact. The Project site is located within the RiverPark Specific Plan that encompasses 701 acres. An archival and historic records search was conducted as part of the RiverPark Specific Plan EIR that was prepared in 2001. Two prehistoric archaeological sites were identified within one-half mile radius of the 701-acre RiverPark Specific Plan. No archaeological sites were recorded within the 701-acre site. A Phase I Archaeological Survey was conducted in 2000 as part of the RiverPark Specific Plan EIR. In 2000, the ground surface was examined by walking transects across the 701-acre RiverPark Specific Plan site. The transects were spaced at 15-meter intervals to identify artifacts that might be present on the ground surface. No archaeological artifacts were found in the vicinity of the Project site during the Phase 1 survey, but a mixed scatter of historical debris was found in the extreme southeastern portion of the RiverPark Specific Plan area approximately 300 feet southeast of the Project site. The survey did not find evidence of an intact historical 886

deposit or site within this area (W&S Consultants, 2000 and Impact Sciences, Inc. 2001).

In 2016, the area of the previously known historical debris was developed as a commercial center in 2016.

In 2001, buildings and structures within the RiverPark Specific Plan were also evaluated to determine if they were eligible for the National or the California Registers. There were no buildings or structures in the immediate vicinity of the Project site. Therefore, no impacts to historical resources would occur with Project implementation. b) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. As discussed above, no archaeological resources were found in the immediate vicinity of the Project site. Although no known resources were discovered, there could be an inadvertent discovery. Therefore, there is a negligible potential for archaeological resources to be found and if they are found, construction activities could cause significant impacts to the unknown resources.

Mitigation Measure CUL-1: Prior to ground disturbance, the applicant is required to retain a City-approved archaeologist and Native American Monitor for monitoring of ground disturbing activities. In the event that archaeological resources are unearthed during ground-disturbing activities, these activities shall be halted or diverted away from the vicinity of the find so that the find can be evaluated. A buffer of at least 50 feet shall be established around the find where construction activities shall not be allowed to continue until a qualified archaeologist has examined the newly discovered artifact(s) and has evaluated the area of the find. Work shall be allowed to continue outside the buffer area. All archaeological resources unearthed by Project construction activities shall be evaluated by a qualified professional archaeologist who meets the U.S. Secretary of Interior’s Professional Qualifications and Standards. Should the newly discovered artifacts be determined to be historic, Native American Tribes/Individuals shall be contacted and consulted and Native American construction monitoring shall be initiated. The Applicant and the City shall coordinate with the archaeologist to develop an appropriate treatment plan for the resources. The plan may include implementation of archaeological data recovery excavations to address treatment of the resource along with subsequent laboratory processing and analysis.

Implementation of the above mitigation measure would reduce the potential impacts on unknown archaeological resources to less than significant. c) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. Based on a review of the U.S.

Geological Survey map for Oxnard, the Project site is underlain by Holocene alluvial deposits (CDC, 2003). Holocene alluvium is thought to be too young to contain significant paleontological resources. Therefore, near surface grading would result in less than significant impacts to paleontological resources. However, based on the drilling depth of 40 feet for the proposed billboard pole, the Holocene alluvium could be underlain by more sensitive geologic sediment that could have a high potential to contain paleontological resources. Therefore, construction activities associated with the proposed billboard pole, could result in significant impacts to paleontological resources. 887

Mitigation Measure CUL-2: Prior to ground disturbance, the applicant is required to retain a City-approved paleontologist for monitoring of ground disturbing activities. In the event that paleontological resources are unearthed during ground-disturbing activities, these activities shall be halted or diverted away from the vicinity of the find until it is assessed for scientific significance and collected. Monitoring shall include matrix screening for the presence of microfossils; however, monitoring is largely a visual inspection of sediment.

With the implementation of Mitigation Measure CUL-2, potential impacts on paleontological resources would be reduced to less than significant. d) Less than Significant Impact. No human remains are known to exist on or in the immediate vicinity of the Project site. If human remains are inadvertently encountered, all work is required to halt, and the Ventura County Coroner is required to be contacted in accordance with California Public Resources Code 5097.98 and Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5. If the coroner determines that the remains are Native American, the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) would be notified in accordance with State law. Compliance with the State law would ensure that potential impacts on human remains would be reduced to less than significant. e, f) No Impact. The City of Oxnard sent a notification letter on November 23, 2021 to the Native American tribe that is on the City’s Assembly Bill (AB) 52 list (Appendix C). This list includes only one tribe, Barbareno/Ventureno Band of Mission Indians, that has requested notification of projects within the City in accordance with AB 52.

The act amended California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 5097.94, and added PRC Sections 21073, 21074, 21080.3.1, 21080.3.2, 21082.3, 21083.09, 21084.2, and 21084.3. AB 52 applies specifically to projects for which a NOP or a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration or MND will be filed on or after July 1, 2015. The primary intent of AB 52 was to include California Native American Tribes early in the environmental review process and to establish a new category of resources related to Native Americans that require consideration under the CEQA, known as tribal cultural resources (as defined in PRC Section 21074(a)). On July 30, 2016, the California Natural Resources Agency adopted the final text for tribal cultural resources update to CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, which was approved by the Office of Administrative Law on September 27, 2016.

PRC Section 21080.3.1 requires that within 14 days of a lead agency determining that an application for a project is complete, or a decision by a public agency to undertake a project, the lead agency provide formal notification to the designated contact, or a tribal representative, of California Native American Tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the Project (as defined in PRC Section 21073) and who have requested in writing to be informed by the lead agency (PRC Section 21080.3.1(b)). Tribes interested in consultation must respond in writing within 30 days from receipt of the lead agency’s formal notification and the lead agency must begin 888
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 41 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
consultation within 30 days of receiving the tribe’s request for consultation (PRC Sections 21080.3.1(d) and 21080.3.1(e)).

PRC Section 21080.3.2(a) identifies the following as potential consultation discussion topics: the type of environmental review necessary; the significance of tribal cultural resources; the significance of the Project’s impacts on the tribal cultural resources; Project alternatives or appropriate measures for preservation; and mitigation measures.

Consultation is considered concluded when either: (1) the parties agree to measures to mitigate or avoid a significant effect, if a significant effect exists, on a tribal cultural resource; or (2) a party, acting in good faith and after reasonable effort, concludes that mutual agreement cannot be reached (PRC Section 21080.3.2(b)).

If a California Native American tribe has requested consultation pursuant to Section 21080.3.1 and has failed to provide comments to the lead agency, or otherwise failed to engage in the consultation process, or if the lead agency has complied with Section 21080.3.1(d) and the California Native American tribe has failed to request consultation within 30 days, the lead agency may certify an EIR or adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (PRC Section 21082.3(d)(2) and (3)).

The Barbareno/Ventureno Band of Mission Indians was notified of the Project, but did not request consultation with the City of Oxnard regarding the proposed Project. There are no known tribal cultural resources located on the Project site, and therefore, no impacts to known tribal cultural resources would occur.

Discussion
a.i) Less than Significant Impact. A fault is a plane or surface in the earth along which failure has occurred and materials on opposite sides have moved relative to one another in response to the accumulation and release of stress. The U.S. Geological Survey defines active faults as those that have had surface displacements within Holocene time (about the last 11,000 years). Potentially active faults are those that have had surface displacement during Quaternary time, within the last 1.6 million years. Based on a review of the City of Oxnard General Plan Background Report, the most regionally active faults in the vicinity of the City of Oxnard are the Oak Ridge, Pitas Point-Ventura, Red Mountain, Anacapa, and Malibu Coast faults. The nearest active fault to the Project site is the Pitas PointVentura fault which is located approximately four miles north of the Project site (Matrix Design Group, Inc., 2006). Due to the distance to the nearest active fault, impacts from a fault rupture at the Project site would be less than significant. a.ii) Less than Significant Impact. The Project site is located in Southern California, an area that is subject to strong seismic ground shaking. Seismically induced ground acceleration is the shaking motion that is produced by an earthquake. As noted in Section 3.7 a.i) above, there are regionally active faults in the vicinity of the City of Oxnard. Earthquake activity associated with these faults could cause ground shaking at the Project site. The proposed 890
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 43 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
Project is subject to the seismic design criteria of the most recent California Building Code (CBC) which has been adopted within the Oxnard City Code. The criteria contain seismic safety provisions with the aim of preventing building and structural collapse during an earthquake. Adherence to these criteria would result in less than significant seismic ground shaking impacts on the proposed Project.
b) Less than Significant Impact. Unstable geologic units or soils commonly occur when there are landslides, lateral spreading, subsidence/collapse, or liquefaction.

Landslides
Because the Project site is located on relatively flat terrain, the Project would not be subject to potential unstable soils due to landslides.

Lateral Spreading
Lateral spreading movement occurs when a soil mass slides laterally on liquefied soil layers, moving downslope or towards a free face. Based on a review of the RiverPark Specific Plan EIR, the potential for lateral spreading in the Project area appears to be low.

Therefore, less than significant lateral spreading impacts would occur on the Project site.

Subsidence/Collapse
Subsidence or collapse is the sinking of the ground surface caused by the compression of earth materials resulting from manmade activities, such as groundwater or oil and gas withdrawal. The resulting compression typically occurs only once within affected soils and cannot be repeated during fluctuations of the groundwater level or from peat oxidation.

Historic groundwater withdrawals have caused some regional subsidence. There are no known active groundwater wells in the immediate vicinity of the Project site, therefore, there is a low potential for subsidence/collapse at the site. As a result, potential effects from land subsidence/collapse would be less than significant. The potential for subsidence/collapse from peat oxidation on the Project site is not likely because of the absence of peat deposits in the borings that were taken as part of the RiverPark Specific Plan. Similarly, subsidence/collapse from oil and gas withdrawal is not likely because there are no known active oil or natural gas wells in the Project vicinity over the past 20 years.

Overall, effects from land subsidence/collapseon the Project would be less than significant.

Liquefaction
Liquefaction is a phenomenon that occurs when soil undergoes transformation from a solid state to a liquefied condition due to the effects of increased pore-water pressure. This typically occurs where susceptible soils (particularly soils in the medium sand to silt range) are located over a high groundwater table. A high groundwater table is described as one within 50 feet of the surface. Because the proposed Project is subject to the seismic design criteria of the most recent California Building Code (CBC) which has been adopted within the Oxnard City Code and the CBC includes provisions to prevent liquefaction impacts, the potential liquefaction impacts to the Project would be less than significant. 891
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 44 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
c) Less than Significant Impact. Expansive soil is characterized by a clay composition whereby clay particles expand dramatically upon wetting. Structures constructed on expansive soils require special design considerations that are identified within the CBC.

Based on a review of the RiverPark Specific Plan EIR, the Specific Plan area generally consists of granular materials (silty sand, well-graded sand, sandy silt, and some clayey silt) that are not expected to be expansive. Conformance with the design criteria within the CBC would prevent substantive expansive soils. Therefore, potential expansive soil impact to the Project would be less than significant.
d) No Impact. Seiches and tsunamis are caused by earthquakes. Seiches are waves caused by large-scale, short-duration oscillation of confined bodies of water (such as reservoirs and lakes) during earthquakes that may damage low-lying adjacent areas, although not as severely as a tsunami. The closest enclosed body of water that could result in earthquakeinduced seiche is Lake Piru which is approximately 30 miles northeast of the Project site.

Due to the distance of Lake Piru, potential seiches in the lake would not impact the Project site. Tsunamis are earthquake-induced surge waves that can cause severe coastal flooding.

Because the Project site is located approximately five miles from the coast and at approximately elevation 80 feet above mean sea level, the Project site is not at risk from a tsunami. Implementation of the Project would not be impacted by seiches or tsunamis. e) No Impact. The Project is located in a developed area adjacent to U.S. 101, and the Project would be located on a city-owned property. The operation of the Project would not rely on maintenance activities under the purview of other agencies aside from the City of Oxnard.

The Project would have no impact.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. Construction activities required for the proposed electronic billboard would involve site clearing, grading, drilling, trenching to connect to an existing electrical line and other ground-disturbing activities. These construction activities would temporarily require the use of equipment such as trucks, drill, concrete mixer, crane, and other powered equipment, and would use potentially hazardous materials, such as fuels (gasoline and diesel) and lubricants (oil and grease). In addition, construction may use hazardous materials, such as solvents, paints, thinners, or other chemicals. Such materials would be used only in small quantities based on the minimal activities associated with the installation of an electronic billboard. These materials would be transported, handled, stored and disposed of in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and manufacturers’ instructions. Compliance with these existing regulations would result in a less than significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use or disposal of hazardous materials. As such, impacts during construction would be less than significant.

Operation of the proposed electronic billboard would result in periodic maintenance activities of the billboard. These activities may include the limited use of paints, solvents and other chemicals. However, given the periodic nature of maintenance, the potential to create a hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use or disposal of hazardous materials during operational activities would be less than significant. b) Less than Significant Impact. As stated above, the maintenance activities associated with the proposed new electronic billboard may use a limited quantity of hazardous materials such as paints, solvents and other chemicals. However, because these activities are periodic 893
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 46 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
and the use of potential hazardous materials is limited, the Project will not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment.

The Project would result in a less than significant impact. c) Less than Significant Impact. There are no existing or proposed schools within 0.25-mile of the Project site. The nearest school is Sierra Linda Elementary that is located approximately 0.9-mile southwest of the Project site. Since there are no schools within

0.25-mile of the Project site, construction and operational activities associated with the Project are not expected to cause risk to the public or nearby attendees of schools.

Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
d) No Impact. Government Code Section 65962.5 requires CalEPA to develop and annually update the Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites (Cortese) List. The information contained in the Cortese List is provided by the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and other state and local government agencies. A review of the DTSC EnviroStor and State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) GeoTracker databases did not indicate any hazardous materials sites within the Project site. A Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) cleanup site was identified approximately 350 feet southeast of the Project site, where existing commercial retail buildings are located. The site was investigated for potential contamination of underlying groundwater due to the accidental release of diesel and the case for the LUST was closed by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) in 1998, indicating that the LUST no longer poses a threat for groundwater contamination (SWRCB 1998). The proposed Project would not require ground disturbing activities in close proximity to the closed LUST cleanup site.

Therefore, the proposed Project would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. The Project site is not located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5.19.

Therefore, the proposed Project would not create a significant hazard to the public or the environment.
e) No Impact. The Projectsite is located in an undeveloped lot between Riverpark Boulevard and U.S. 101. Project construction and operational activities would occur onsite, and these activities would not result in changes to the transportation circulation, an existing emergency response plan, or evacuation plan. Therefore, no impact would occur.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. Construction activities associated with the Project could result in short-term surface water quality impacts. These potential impacts could occur from construction-related activities such as drilling for the electronic sign pole foundation and pouring concrete as well as the trenching for the electrical line. Runoff of loose soils and/or construction wastes and fuel during a rainstorm could flow into local storm drains as a result of Project construction. Such contaminated runoff could potentially threaten downstream water resources that receive runoff from the local drainage network. Standard construction BMPs such as silt fencing, storm drain inlet protection, and proper material and waste storage will ensure surface water quality is not substantially degraded during construction. Compliance with the City’s standard stormwater runoff provisions for construction activities, such as runoff control and other measures set forth in the City of Oxnard Code Section 22-222 would ensure that the Project does not violate any water quality standards or any waste discharge requirements during construction (City of Oxnard, Nd). Due to the lack of significant grading, earth-moving activities, and paving as part of the Project, the potential water quality impact from construction activities would be less than significant.
895

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 48 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
Operation activities associated with the electronic billboard would not involve the use of water or the generation of wastewater. Therefore, no violation of any water quality standards or any waste discharge requirements would occur, and thus no water quality impact would result.
b) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed Project includes construction activities to install an electronic billboard, trenching for an electrical line and the placement of landscaping. The proposed billboard would not require water to operate. The Project includes the removal of existing eucalyptus trees along U.S. 101 and the planting of drought tolerant tree species including carpe myrtle, western redbud and vitex. The proposed billboard will include an approximately 7-foot diameter hole for the proposed 5- foot diameter pole that will be set into concrete. The Project also includes trenching for approximately 40 feet to connect the Project to an existing electrical facility. The Project site currently provides little to no infiltration of water into groundwater aquifers. The Project site does not support any groundwater production systems, and construction and operation of the proposed electronic billboardwould not interfere with the operation of any production system. The proposed Project would not substantially change the amount of existing impervioussurface area and would not have a substantial impact on groundwater recharge. The Project also includes trenching for the proposed electric power line to connect with the existing line and would extend approximately 40 linear feet. The construction of the 7-foot diameter hole that would extend approximately 50 feet into the ground may encounter groundwater that would need to be extracted for construction of the pole location. The extraction of the groundwater would not be substantial because it would be limited for a 7-foot diameter pole. Implementation of the proposed Project would result in less than significant groundwater impacts.
c) No Impact. The Project site is undeveloped and has relatively flat topography. No stream or water resource features occur on the Projectsite. In addition, the proposed Project would not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of a course, stream or river, or through the addition of impervious surfaces as the installation of the proposed electronic billboard would nominally increase impervious surfaces on the site. As such, no impact would occur. d) No Impact. Based on a review of the Flood Insurance Rate Map, the Project site is not located in a flood prone area including a 100-year flood zone (FEMA, 2010). Therefore, the Project would not place the pole for the electronic billboard or trench for the proposed electrical line within a flood prone area. No impact would occur. e) No Impact. The implementation of the Project includesthe placement of a 5-foot diameter pole within a 7-foot diameter hole on the Project site and includes approximately 40 linear feet of trenching for the placement of an electrical line. The placement of the pole and electrical linewould not impede or redirect existing surface drainage flows from the Project site.
896

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 49 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
f) Less than Significant Impact. Based on a review of the Ventura County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan, the majority of the City of Oxnard including the Project site is within a dam inundation area (AECOM, 2015). Although the Project site is subject to inundation due to a failure of a dam upstream along the Santa Clara River, the probability of dam failure inundation is not known but such an event would likely be the result of an extreme storm. The Division of Safety and Dams periodically checks the conditions of dams so that the likelihood for a dam failure is further reduced. The existing levee along the Santa Clara River is currently being evaluated to reconstruct to provide greater protection for urban uses. There is a potential for a breach of the levee prior to reconstruction of the levee.

Because the proposed electronic billboard would be installed with concrete approximately 40 feet below ground surface and the proposed electronic billboard is located approximately 0.8 mile from the levee, a potential breach of the levee would result in a less than significant impact on the proposed electronic billboard. Overall, the potential inundation at the Project site would result in a less than significant impact on the proposed electronic billboard and would not result in exposing people to injury or death. g) No Impact. Based on a review of the Flood Insurance Rate Map, the Project site is not located in a flood prone area (FEMA, 2010). As discussed in Section 3.9 d) above, the Project site would not be subject to seiches or tsunamis. The Project site and surrounding area contain relatively flat terrain and are not subject to mudflows. Therefore, the Project would not be exposed to substantial risk related to inundation by a seiche, tsunami or mudflow at the Project site.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. As discussed in Section 3.1 c), based on a review of the existing City of Oxnard sign regulations within the City of Oxnard Municipal Code, the proposed electronic billboard is not currently an allowed use within the City of Oxnard.

However, as discussed within Section 3.1, Aesthetics and Urban Design, the implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would result in less than significant impacts to scenic vistas, scenic resources, and scenic highways, and the Project would result a less than significant visual alteration of the existing visual characteristics as well as less than significant light and glare. In addition, the City is currently processing a separate Ordinance amendment to allow electronic billboards prior to approval of the Project, and the Project design complies with the proposed Ordinance regulations. The Project includes an amendment to the RiverPark Specific Plan and a Development Agreement to ensure Project consistency. Therefore, the proposed Project would not conflict with a regulation of the City (i.e., the City of Oxnard Municipal Code or the RiverPark Specific Plan) that was adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating a significant environmental effect.
b) Less than Significant Impact. The Project is located approximately 2.5 miles from the Oxnard Airport. According to the Oxnard Airport Master Plan, obstructions to air navigation in the vicinity of the Project site would occur if structures exceeded 350 feet in elevation (Coffman Associates, Inc., 2004). Because the Project includes an electronic billboard that will include a height of 60 feet above the ground, the implementation of the Project would not impact air navigation.
c) No Impact. According to the City of Oxnard 2030 General Plan EIR, no established or planned Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan exists within the City of Oxnard (Matrix Design Group, 2009). Therefore, the Project would not result in any impact associated with these plans.

d) No Impact. Construction of the proposed electronic billboard includes the placement of a pole in the ground. The proposed billboard would not physically divide the surrounding community since the proposed sign would not obstruct or in any way change access to the existing community. The Project site is located in an existing undeveloped lot and would not impact any roadways or traffic circulation patterns within the existing community. The proposed electronic billboard Project would not create any barriers to access to a community or require removal of any housing. As such, the proposed Project would have no impact.

Discussion
a) No Impact. Based on a review of the RiverPark Specific Plan EIR, the Project site is located in an area identified as RiverPark Specific Plan Area ‘A’. The City has designated this area for urban uses since 1986 and mining within this area, including the Project site, would be economically infeasible due to its location and expected poor quality of materials recovered (Impact Sciences, 2001). The proposed Project would not result in the loss of availability of important mineral resources. No impacts to mineral resources would occur with the implementation of the proposed Project.
b) No Impact. Because the Project site has been designated for urban development since 1986 and currently designated Regional Commercial uses, the City of Oxnard General Plan has not designated the Project site as a mineral resource recovery area (City of Oxnard, 2014).

Therefore, the implementation of the Project would not impact a locally-important mineral resource recovery site.

Discussion
a) Less than Significant Impact. Implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would result in noise increases during construction activities and noise increases during operation due to periodic maintenance activities.

Construction activities will include the placement of a pole 50 feet into the ground and extension of the pole 60 feet above the ground as well as trenching for the proposed electrical line. The construction activities will also include the removal of the existing eucalyptus trees within the existing U.S. 101 right-of-way and plant replacement trees. The placement of the proposed pole will result in the highest noise levels during construction and would require the following construction equipment for each construction activity:

Drill footing/haul and dispose dirt (1 to 2 days)
• 48’ Flatbed Truck & Trailer
• Caterpillar 262D Skid Steer Loader
• LoDril HT Drill Mounted on a John Deere 270D
• 5 Super 10 Dump Trucks rotating dumps
Column Set/Concrete Pour (1 to 2 days)

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 55 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
the centerline of U.S. 101. Based on Caltrans peak hour traffic volume information (6,954 automobiles, 207 medium trucks and 139 heavy trucks) adjacent to the Project site, traffic noise levels at approximately 200 feet from the freeway centerline would be 75.6 dBA Leq which is similar to the noise level that would be experienced during construction activities.

Construction noise levels are considered significant if noise levels are not consistent with the City of Oxnard Noise Ordinance or are not consistent with the 2030 General Plan noise policies.

City of Oxnard Noise Ordinance
In accordance with Section 7-188 of the City’s Municipal Code, sound sources associated with or created by construction, repair, remodeling or grading of any real property are exempt, provided the activities occur between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturday. Because the Project would include construction activities between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, the construction noise levels are considered less than significant.

Operational noise levels would occur during periodic maintenance activities. These activities would be required to repair and maintain the proposed electronic billboard. These maintenance activities would include a nominal number of trucks traveling to the Project site and result in less than significant truck traffic noise. In addition, the repair and maintenance activities that would periodically occur onsite would be considered exempt and result in nominal increases in noise levels to the surrounding uses. These periodic maintenance activities would only occur during the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturday. Therefore, long-term operational activities associated with the proposed electronic billboard would result in less than significant noise impacts.

City of Oxnard Safety & Hazards Element
The Safety & Hazards Element includes noise policies. The applicable policies are related to construction noise (City of Oxnard, 2016). Because the operational activities would include periodic maintenance activities that would generate nominal noise levels, the operational-related noise policies are not applicable to the Project. The following construction noise policies are applicable to the Project.

SH-6.1 Construction Noise Control – Provide best practices guidelines to developers for reducing potential noise impacts on surrounding land uses.

As described above, noise levels associated with construction activities at the nearest residences would be similar to the noise levels associated with freeway traffic along U.S. 101. Therefore, construction activities would not require best practices to reduce anticipated construction noise.

SH-6.2 Limiting Construction Activities – Continue to limit construction activities to the hours of 7 am to 7 pm, Monday through Saturday. No construction shall occur after hours, on Sundays, or national holidays without permission from the city. 903
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 56 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
As also described above, construction activities would be limited to the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturday. Therefore, the Project would be consistent with this goal.
b) Less than Significant Impact. Construction equipment generates ground vibration.

Operational activities associated with the Project would generate ground vibration with vehicles traveling on roadways.

The City of Oxnard does not have vibration criteria standards; however, there are federal vibration criteria that have been adopted by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The vibration damage criteria for structures in the Project vicinity is 0.5 peak particle velocity (PPV). The vibration criteria for human annoyance is 72 vibration decibels (VdB) (Federal Transit Authority, 2018). Based on the review of the FTA vibration levels by type of equipment, the highest level of vibration from a piece of equipment that would be used during the Project construction activities would occur from a loaded truck that generates

0.076 PPV and 86 VdB at 25 feet. At the nearest residence located at approximately 145 feet north of the Project site, the residence would be exposed to 0.006 PPV and 63 VdB that are less than the 0.5 PPV vibration damage criteria and less than the 72 VdB human annoyance criteria. Therefore, construction activities associated with the Project would result in less than significant vibration impacts.

Long-term maintenance activities would result in periodic trucks accessing the Project site; however, trucks accessing the site would result in nominal increases in the typical vibration levels that are experienced from daily vehicles traveling along Riverpark Boulevard.

Therefore, long-term vibration impacts associated with the Project would be less than significant.
c) Less than Significant Impact. The implementation of the Project would result in temporary and periodic increases in noise levels. As discussed above, temporary noise levels would occur during construction activities associated with the electronic billboard.

As a worst-case assumption, noise levels at the nearest residence could reach up to 77 dBA Leq while vehicular noise levels from U.S. 101 at the same nearest residence would be approximately 75.5 dBA Leq. This potential increase of 1.5 dBA Leq would not be considered substantial for construction activities. In addition, the City considers construction activities as significant if construction noise does not occur within the Noise Ordinance timing restriction. Because the Project would include construction activities within the allowed times of day, the Project would result in a less than significant temporary noise impact.

As discussed above, long-term maintenance activities associated with the proposed electronic billboard would occur. However, these periodic activities would result in nominal increases in noise and would be considered less than significant. d) No Impact. Operation of the proposed electronic billboard would not generate permanent noise. Therefore, the implementation of the Project would result in no long-term permanent noise impact.
904

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 57 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
e) No Impact. There are no public airports or private airstrips within two miles of the Project site. The closest airport is the Oxnard Airport located approximately 2.5 miles southwest of the Project site in the City of Oxnard. The next closest airport is the Camarillo Airport which is located approximately 4.0 miles southeast of the Project site. Because the Project does not include people residing on the site, and the site is over two miles from the nearest airport, the Project would not expose people to excessive airport noise levels. Therefore, no impact would occur.
f) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. As discussed in Section 3.4 d) above, the implementation of the Project could impact nesting bird species associated with the eucalyptus trees that are proposed to be removed as part of the Project. In addition, trees that are in the Project vicinity could also include nesting birds that could be impacted from the construction-related noise associated with the Project. This increase in noise could result in a significant noise impact to nesting birds.

Implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-1 from Section 3.4 d) is required.

With the implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-1 for nesting birds, potential impacts to nesting birds would be reduced to less than significant.

Discussion
a) No Impact. The proposed Project includes the installation of a digital electronic billboard on a site that currently is designated Regional Commercial within the 2030 General Plan (City of Oxnard, 2014). The placement of the billboard does not require a general plan amendment and would not increase population beyond that projected in the 2030 General Plan. Therefore, the Project would result in no impact on population. b) No Impact. The proposed Project includes the installation of a digital electronic billboard.

The operation of the billboard would not result in the inducement of growth on the Project site or surrounding area because the operation would not require an onsite employee to operate the billboard.
c) No Impact. The implementation of the electronic billboard is on a site that does not contain any existing housing. Therefore, the implementation of the Project would result in no impact on existing housing.
d) No Impact. As stated above, the implementation of the electronic billboard is on a site that does not contain any existing housing. Therefore, the implementation of the Project would result in no impact on existing housing, including existing affordable housing units. 906

Discussion
a) No Impact. The operation of the proposed electronic billboard would add a structure that would be served by the City of Oxnard Fire Department Station 7 that is located approximately one-mile northeast of the Project site (City of Oxnard, 2022a). No employees would be located on the Project site, and therefore, the addition of the proposed billboard would not require the addition of a new fire station or modifications to an existing fire station to serve the Project site. Therefore, the proposed Project would have no impact on fire protection services.
b) No Impact. The Project site is located approximately 2.3 miles north of the City of Oxnard Police Department and located within Neighborhood Policing Beat 14 (City of Oxnard, 2022b). The proposed Project includes an electronic billboard that would not result in a demand for police protection servicesbecause there are no employees that would be located on the Project site. Therefore, the Project would have no impact on police protection services.
c) No Impact. The proposed Project would not generate employees and would not increase the use of existing park facilities. Therefore, the Project would not result in the physical deterioration of existing park facilities.
d) No Impact. The proposed Project would not generate employees and would not increase the use of existing libraries or other community facilities. Therefore, the Project would not impact libraries or community facilities.

a) Less than Significant Impact. Construction of the proposed electronic billboard and trenching for an electrical line would generate a nominal number of construction vehicle trips for the activities to place the electronic billboard on the Project site and trench for approximately 40 feet to the adjacent electrical enclosure that is located south of Riverpark Boulevard. This nominal number of trips would not conflict with the circulation system and result in less than significant impacts. In addition, the trenching for the electrical line would not impact automobile circulation or the pedestrian pathway located along Riverpark Boulevard. In addition, long-term activities associated with the Project include periodic visits to the site for maintenance. These periodic visits would also result in less than significant impacts to the surrounding circulation system. b) No Impact. The proposed Project would include periodic maintenance vehicle trips to the site, as needed, and would not require daily vehicle trips to the site for operation of the electronic billboard. Therefore, the Project would have no impact on vehicle miles traveled. c) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed Project includes the placement of an electronic billboard adjacent to U.S. 101. The proposed billboard will be oriented for viewing primarily from U.S. 101. The proposed billboard will comply with all applicable laws and regulations concerning brightness, including, without limitation, California Building and Professions Code Section 5403(g) and California Vehicle Code Section 21466.5. The billboard proposes to include different images, but each image will be displayed for at least eight seconds and the images would not move or present the appearance of motion and would not flash or blink or any other means that does not provide a constant illumination. These features associated with the proposed electronic billboard would not substantially increase hazards to drivers along U.S. 101 and less than significant impacts would occur. d) No Impact. The implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would not cause inadequate emergency access in the Project vicinity because the placement of the electronic sign does not include employees at the Project site. Therefore, the Project would not impact access.

Discussion
a) No Impact. The operational activities associated with the proposed electronic billboard would not require the use of water, and therefore, the Project would not require new or expanded water supply entitlements. Therefore, the Project would have no impact. b) No Impact. The proposed Project would not result in wastewater generation, and therefore, would not result in a need for wastewater treatment. As a result, the Project would not impact the capacity of the existing wastewater treatment facilities servicing the City of Oxnard.
c) No Impact. The proposed electronic billboard would not include any employees and would not generate solid waste. Temporary construction waste would be hauled off site in accordance with all Federal, State, and local regulations. The Project would not exceed current permitted capacities of landfills because the Project would not generate operational waste. As such, the proposed Project would have no long-term impact. d) No Impact. As discussed above, temporary construction waste would be generated during installation of the proposed billboard, trenching for the electrical line and removal of the existing landscaping along U.S. 101. However, the construction waste would be hauled off site in accordance with all Federal, State, and local regulations, and therefore, would not conflict with these regulations.

e) Less than Significant Impact. As described below, the proposed Project would not involve wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy.

Construction
The Project would consume energy during construction activities, primarily from on- and off-road vehicle fuel consumption in the form of diesel and gasoline, necessary to install a typical billboard. Construction of a typical billboard is assumed to require up to four workdays, depending on the nature of the soil and the extent of the column footing required.

For the purposes of evaluating energy usage, the analysis conservatively assumes a construction scenario of four days of construction. The construction would consist of the following tasks: 1) drilling and haul of excavated soil, 2) column set and concrete pour, 3) building the structure and 4) installation of digital display. These activities would occur over a two-week period with a five to seven-day break between the drilling/column set and the installation to allow for concrete setting.

Energy consumption would occur from the operation of heavy-duty construction equipment, on-road trucks, and from on-road light-duty passenger vehicles from construction workers commuting to and from the Project site. Heavy-duty construction equipment was conservatively assumed to be primarily diesel-fueled. Diesel fuel would also be used for heavy-duty on-road trucks used for hauling of excavated soils, cement delivery, on-road transport of construction equipment and materials (i.e., aerial lift trucks, cranes, and billboard construction materials such as columns and electronic displays) Natural gas and electricity are not anticipated to be used during construction activitiesin any substantial quantities. A summary of the Project’s construction fuel usage is provided in Table UE-1, Summary of Fuel Consumption During Installation of the Proposed Electronic Billboard. Energy calculations for fuel consumption are based on the same assumptions used for the Air Quality analysis and used for the CalEEMod Emissions Modeling.

Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 66 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
Project site would be limited and are estimated as less than 15 gallons of gasoline which is considered minimal fuel consumption.

Transportation fuels (gasoline and diesel) are produced from crude oil, which can be domestic or imported from various regions around the world. Based on current proven reserves, crude oil production would be sufficient to meet 50 years of worldwide consumption (BP Global, 2022). Vehicles that would be used by construction workers would comply with Corporate Average Fuel Economy fuel economy standards, which would result in more efficient use of transportation fuels (lower consumption). Vehicles that would be used by construction workers would also comply with Pavley and Low Carbon Fuel Standards which are designed to reduce vehicle GHG emissions, but would also result in fuel savings in addition to compliance with Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards.

Construction of the Project would utilize fuel-efficient equipment consistent with State and federal regulations, such as fuel efficiency regulations in accordance with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Pavley Phase II standards, the anti-idling regulation in accordance with Section 2485 in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, and fuel requirements in accordance with Section 93115 in Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations, and would comply with State measures to reduce the inefficient, wasteful, and unnecessary consumption of energy, such as petroleum-based transportation fuels. While these regulations are intended to reduce construction emissions, compliance with the antiidling and emissions regulations discussed above would also result in fuel savings from the use of more fuel-efficient engines. Therefore, Project construction would not result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources and energy impacts would still be less than significant. Calculation details for fuel and energy consumption are included in Appendix G.

Operation
Operations of the proposed electronic billboard would consume energy in the form of purchased electricity to power the lighting. Electricity in the Project area (Ventura County) is provided by Southern California Edison (SCE). SCE is required to commit to the use of renewable energy sources for compliance with the Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS).

SCE has already met its requirement to procure at least 33 percent of its energy portfolio from renewable sources by 2020 with approximately 33.1 percent of its 2020 electric supply power mix from renewable power (SCE 2020). With the passage of SB 100 in September 2018, SCE will be required to update its long-term plans to demonstrate compliance including providing 60 percent of its energy portfolio from renewable sources by December 31, 2030, and ultimately planning for 100 percent eligible renewable energy resources and zero-carbon resources by December 31, 2045.

Predicted energy use for the proposed electronic billboard is estimated at an average of approximately 150 kilowatt hours (kWh) per day and approximately 54,000 kWh per year. 914
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 67 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
Based on SCE’s 2020 Annual Report, SCE total system sales for 2020 was 85,399 million kWh of electricity (SCE 2021). As such, the Project-related net increase in annual electricity consumption of 54,000 kWh per year would represent less than 0.0001 percent of SCE’s total energy sales. The proposed electronic billboard would utilize energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) technology, which is recognized by the U.S.

Department of Energy as the most energy efficient lighting technology (U.S. DOE, n.d.).

Therefore, Project operations would not result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources and energy impacts would still be less than significant.

As discussed above, Project construction would utilize fuel-efficient equipment consistent with State and federal regulations, such as fuel efficiency regulations in accordance with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Pavley Phase II standards, the anti-idling regulation in accordance with Section 2485 in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, and fuel requirements in accordance with Section 93115 in Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations, to reduce the use of petroleum-based transportation fuels.

Operation of the Project would utilize energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) technology, which is recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy as the most energy efficient lighting technology (U.S. DOE, n.d.). As a result, the proposed Project would support Statewide efforts to implement fuel saving strategies and utilize energy efficient technologies. Overall, the Project would not be inconsistent with existing energy standards and impacts would be less than significant.
f) No Impact. Implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would include the extension of an electrical line for approximately 40 linear feet to an existing electrical facility located immediately adjacent to the Project site. The electronic billboard would not require additional energy facilities, beyond the proposed extension of an electrical line, to serve the proposed Project. Therefore, the Project would result in no impact. g) Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, Project construction would utilize fuel-efficient equipment consistent with State and federal regulations, such as fuel efficiency regulations in accordance with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Pavley Phase II standards, the anti-idling regulation in accordance with Section 2485 in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, and fuel requirements in accordance with Section 93115 in Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations, to reduce the use of petroleum-based transportation fuels. Operation of the Project would utilize energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) technology, which is recognized by the U.S.

Department of Energy as the most energy efficient lighting technology (U.S. DOE, nd.).

As a result, the proposed Project would support Statewide efforts to implement fuel saving strategies and utilize energy efficient technologies. Overall, the Project would not be inconsistent with existing energy standards and impacts would be less than significant. h) No Impact. The implementation of the proposed electronic billboard would not preempt energy development or future energy conservation, or inhibit the future use of renewable energy or energy storage due to the Project’s limited use of energy resources. 915

Impact No Impact
If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project:
a) Substantially impair an adopted emergency response
plan or emergency evacuation plan?
☐ ☐ ☒ ☐
b) Due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors,
exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project
occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire
or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire?
☐ ☐ ☒ ☐
c) Require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency
water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment?
☐ ☐ ☒ ☐
d) Expose people or structures to significant risks,
including downslope or downstream flooding or
landslides, as a result of runoff, post-fire slope
instability, or drainage changes?
☐ ☐ ☒ ☐
Discussion
a - d) Less than SignificantImpact. The proposed digital electronic billboard is located on a lot in an urban area of the City of Oxnard. Based on a review of the fire hazards severity zones prepared as part of the CalFire fire and resource assessment program, the Project site is not located within or near an area that is designated as a very high fire hazard severity zone (VHFHSZ). The nearest VHFHSZ designated in a Local Responsibility Area is approximately 4.5 miles to the northwest and within a State Responsibility Area is approximately 4.3 miles to the northeast. Due to the distance from a VHFHSZ, the Project would result in less than significant impacts related to wildfires.

3.18 Mandatory Findings of Significance
Issues:

Potentially
Significant
Impact
Less Than
Significant with
Mitigation
Incorporated
Less Than
Significant
Impact No Impact
a) Would the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially
reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal
community, substantially reduce the number or restrict
the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or
eliminate important examples of the major periods of
California history or prehistory?
☐ ☒ ☐ ☐
b) Would the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively
considerable” means that the incremental effects of a
project are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future
projects)?
☐ ☒ ☐ ☐
c) Would the project have environmental effects which
will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings, either directly or indirectly?
☐ ☐ ☒ ☐
Discussion
a) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. The implementation of the Project would include installation activities for the proposed billboard and electrical line as well as removal of existing eucalyptus trees along U.S. 101 that could provide nesting opportunities for bird species. The installation activities and removal of the eucalyptus trees could result in significant impacts to nesting birds. The implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-1 would reduce these potential impacts to less than significant. In addition, construction activities for the Project could result in potential significant impacts to archaeological resources. The implementation of Mitigation Measure CUL-1 would reduce these potential impacts to less than significant.
b) Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated. The potential for cumulative impacts occur when the impacts of a project are combined with impacts from related development projects and result in impacts that are greater than the impacts of a project alone. The City of Oxnard currently includes an additional electronic billboard proposed at Ventura Road on the northside of U.S. 101. This related project is located approximately 4,600 feet west of the Project site. The City of Oxnard is also contemplating the adoption of an ordinance that would allow additional electronic billboards to be constructed and operate along U.S. 101; however, these billboards would not be allowed to be placed within 2,000 feet of an existing electronic billboard and would be required to be located at least 100 feet from an existing residence. As discussed in Sections 3.1 through 3.17 above, the proposed Project could result in potential significant impacts related to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species prior to the implementation of mitigation measures. With the implementation of Mitigation Measures BIO-1, CR-1, and CR-2, the potential impacts associated with the Project would be reduced to less than significant. Given that the potential related projects would need to occur at least 2,000 feet 918
Environmental Checklist
Riverpark Boulevard Electronic Billboard 71 ESA / 202000387.01 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration June 2022
from the Projectsite and the Project impacts to biological resources, cultural resources, and noise on wildlife species are site specific and would not combine with potential impacts associated with other electronic billboards implemented along U.S. 101, the Project’s contribution to cumulative impacts would be considered less than cumulatively considerable and less than significant.
c) Less than Significant Impact. The implementation of the proposed electronic billboard includes potential significant impacts to nesting birds and potential archeological and paleontological resources. The Project would result in less than significant direct or indirect impacts on human beings.

Below please find a description of the proposed project, a map showing the project location, and the name of our project point of contact, pursuant to PRC§ 21080.3.1 (d).

The project is a request for a Special Use Permit (PZ 20-500-07), Specific Plan Amendment (PZ 20-630-02), and Development Agreement (PZ 20-670-06) for the construction of a new double sided digital freeway oriented electronic billboard on the North of Hwy 101, South of Riverpark Blvd, and West of N. Vineyard Road. The property is currently a vacant City owned property. The project will require re-landscaping along the Cal-Trans Right-of-Way. The re-landscaping will require the removal of approximately 10 trees and the replanting of native trees and shrubs. The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City of Oxnard is the lead agency under CEQA.

The project is located North of Hwy 101, South of Riverpark Blvd, and West of N. Vineyard Road (APN:
132-0-311-075).

The proposed project must comply with California Public Resources Code§ 21080.3.1 (Assembly Bill [AB] 52 of 2014), which requires local governments to conduct meaningful consultation with California Native American tribes that have requested to be notified by CEQA lead agencies of proposed projects in the geographic area with which the tribe is traditionally and culturally affiliated.

Your tribe's input is important to the City's planning process. We request that you advise us as early as possible if you wish to consult on the proposed project. Pursuant to PRC § 21080.3.1 (b), you have 30

1 1.0 NARRATIVE
We (exp engineering) have conducted a photometric review of the digital billboards being proposed by Outfront Foster Interstate to be located on Riverpark Blvd near the 101 freeway at Vineyard Ave, in Oxnard, CA.

Using the photometric software AGI32, we studied the screen’s output brightness to determine a) what if any modifications to the sign would be needed to comply with the OAAA (Outdoor Advertising Association of America) lighting level standards, and b) What impact will the sign have at night on the surrounding community.

The photometry is based on the specified Nichia series 336 LED modules, which output light horizontally at 90° and 45° vertically.

The proposed billboard is to be 14’x48’ with the top of the sign mounted at +60’ above the ground with maximum screen brightness of 300 NITS (300 Candela per Square Meter) in the evening.

Per OAAA guidelines, the proposed sign, displaying a full white image (for maximum brightness) should not exceed .3 footcandles over the surrounding ambient light levels at a distance of 250’ in any direction.

As we are unable to determine what the ambient light levels will be at the location, the studies were done assuming the worst-case scenario of no ambient light.

We have included graphical illustrations demonstrating the light levels in footcandles (fc) we expect from the screen.

Sheet 1 of the attachment is a location plan indicating the 250’ boundary overlaid on a map of the proposed site, as well as the projected relative angle of light emanating from the sign Sheet 2 shows the photometric calculations at the ground over the entire map area, graphicly shown as both footcandle points and as a pseudocolor graph.

Sheet 3 is a graphic representation of the light levels impacting the area to the north of the NE-facing sign.

Sheet 4 is a graphic representation of the light levels impacting the adjacent residential area to the east of the signs.

Sheet 5 is a graphic representation of the light levels impacting the retail areas and HW101 on-ramp to the south-east of the signs.

2 Conclusions
We see no light levels in excess of .3fc beyond the 250’ radius of the signs, nor do we find any significant impact to the neighboring properties provided the sign brightness is reduced after dark to the 300 NIT level.
