Transportation Analysis for the Vista Cove Project (LSA Project No. 20241845) LSA reviewed the proposed construction of 51 single family residential dwelling units at the northeast corner of Shady Lane and Wildflower Street (Vista Cove Project or proposed project) to determine if the project would conflict with or create inconsistency with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15064.3, subdivision (b), as required. This memorandum provides supporting evidence that the project would be consistent with the State’s priorities of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and encouraging housing development, which is the intent of Senate Bill (SB) 743.
The project would be located south of Interstate 780 (I-780) on the southeast border of Vallejo, California. Residential land uses are west and south of the project site. The project site is currently vacant land immediately adjacent to an existing residential neighborhood.
PROJECT TRIP GENERATION
As stated previously, the Vista Cove project would construct 51 single-family homes. The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition (2021) provides trip generation rates for this land use. These trip rates are based on data collected at more than 150 single-family residential communities between the 1980s and 2010s, which were pre-pandemic and prior to the rise in prevalence of remote work. As such, these trip rates may be higher than current residential trip production, and are therefore a conservative approach. Table A summarizes the projected project trip generation for the proposed project. As Table A indicates, the proposed project is anticipated to generate 481 new daily trips.

ANALYSIS THRESHOLD
The State revised its State CEQA Guidelines in January 2019. Among the revisions, vehicle delay and level of service analysis have been removed from consideration under CEQA consistent with SB 743.
The current State CEQA Guidelines prescribe the evaluation of transportation impacts on a project’s effect on vehicle miles traveled (VMT). At the time of this revision, a deadline of July 1, 2020 was established for jurisdictions to adopt thresholds for evaluation of transportation impacts according to VMT. Staff at the City of Vallejo (City) prepared draft CEQA Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines in July 2020, which were revised in October 2020; however, they have not been formally adopted. Prior to the revised State CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted the City of Vallejo Traffic Impact Analysis/Study Guidelines, which established that small projects that would add fewer than 500 daily two-way trips or 100 peak period two-way trips were below the threshold for requiring transportation analysis.
State CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.7(c) states:
When adopting or using thresholds of significance, a lead agency may consider thresholds of significance previously adopted or recommended by other public agencies or recommended by experts, provided the decision of the lead agency is supported by substantial evidence.
In addition, Solano County has also not adopted guidelines regarding VMT or thresholds of significance. In the absence of formally adopted thresholds the City, as the lead agency, may consider a threshold of significance supported by substantial evidence.
Simultaneous with clearance of the revised State CEQA Guidelines, the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), now known as Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI) released the Technical Advisory for Evaluating Transportation Impacts under CEQA, December 2018 (Technical Advisory). The Technical Advisory states that the document’s purpose is “to provide advice and recommendations, which agencies and other entities may use at their discretion.” The Technical Advisory goes on to state that it “does not alter lead agency discretion in preparing environmental documents subject to CEQA” and “should not be construed as legal advice.” LSA
3 The Technical Advisory suggests that small projects generating fewer than 110 trips per day, residential and office projects in VMT efficient areas, projects near high-quality transit, affordable residential development, and local-serving retail uses may be presumed to have a less than significant impact on VMT. As shown in Table A, the project would generate more than 110 trips per day. While the Technical Advisory recommends a threshold of 110 trips per day for a small project this recommendation is not relevant to the original intent of modifications to the State CEQA Guidelines, which was to reduce GHG emissions. In addition, the recommendation is not specific to residential development as it solely references office development (see footnote 19 of the Technical Advisory).
The State has prioritizes the reduction of GHG emissions while also encourages housing development. To this end, Section 1(b)(2) of SB 743 identifies that support of infill development was an intent of the Legislature when passing SB 743. This memorandum provides analysis and evidence demonstrating that the recommended 110-daily-trip threshold is not appropriate to meet the State’s simultaneous priorities of reducing GHG emissions and encouraging housing development or the intent of the Legislature when passing SB 743 to support infill development. Infill development is generally situated within existing city boundaries and is surrounded by urban development. The project site is located within the existing city boundary, is adjacent to an existing residential neighborhood and interstate highway with additional urban development located north, south, and east of the project site beyond the interstate highway.
SMALL PROJECT EFFECT ON GHG EMISSIONS
One of the stated goals of SB 743 is to reduce GHG emissions. The California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) is provided by the California Air Resources Board to be used Statewide for developing project-level GHG emissions. LSA used results from this model to correlate the effect of changes in residential project-related daily trips to the resulting GHG emissions. CalEEMod was used with built-in default trip lengths and types to show the vehicular GHG emissions from incremental amounts of daily trips. Table B shows the resulting annual VMT and GHG emissions from the incremental daily trips.

Source: CalEEMod version 2016.3.2.
CalEEMod = California Emissions Estimator Model
CO2e = carbon dioxide equivalent
GHG = greenhouse gas
A common GHG emission threshold is 3,000 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year. The vehicle emissions are typically more than 50 percent of the total project GHG 1/9/25 (P:\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\TECHNICAL\Traffic\VMT Memo2_VistaCoveProject.docx) LSA
1/9/25 (P:\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\TECHNICAL\Traffic\VMT Memo2_VistaCoveProject.docx) 4 emissions, the other 50 percent coming from on-site and project-related activities (e.g., electricity generation). Thus, a project with 500 daily trips (i.e., the City’s pre-existing screening threshold for transportation analysis) would generally have total project emissions that could be less than 1,300 MT CO2e/year (i.e., 50 percent or 643 MT CO2e/year coming from vehicle emissions and the other 50 percent coming from other project activities). As this level of GHG emissions would be less than 3,000 MT CO2e/year, the emissions of GHG from a project up to 500 ADT would typically be less than significant.
The CalEEMod analysis described above is consistent with guidance from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD). BAAQMD provides guidelines for jurisdictions in the Bay Area (such as Vallejo) in regard to analysis, mitigation, and management of air pollutant and GHG under CEQA. Table 4-4 of the California Environmental Quality Act Air Quality Guidelines (BAAQMD, 2022) provides screening levels for single land use projects. These guidelines state that up to 421 single family homes would be appropriately screened from analysis as they would operate below the GHG emissions thresholds. The project proposes about 12 percent of the 421 single family homes that would be presumed to have a less than significant impact on GHG according to BAAQMD guidelines.
If a residential project producing fewer than 500 daily trips produces fewer GHG emissions according to CalEEMod than the emissions threshold and is below the screening threshold of the BAAQMD guidelines and one of the stated goals of the VMT enabling legislation is to reduce GHG emissions, then the City’s pre-existing threshold of 500 daily trips is still valid to determine when small projects would have a less than significant impact on transportation.
PROJECT SIGNIFICANCE
The Vista Cove project is immediately adjacent to an existing residential neighborhood and would construct 51 dwelling units extending that existing residential neighborhood within the city limits of Vallejo. Section 1(b)(2) of SB 743 identifies that support of infill development was an intent of the Legislature when passing SB 743. Another stated goal is to reduce GHG emissions. CEQA allows a lead agency discretion to use a threshold supported by substantial evidence. Given that the proposed project’s 51 dwelling units is below the 421 dwelling unit screening level identified by BAAQMD and the 481 daily trips would produce GHG emissions at a level below a common threshold of significance, the City could apply these findings as substantial evidence for a determination of less than significant.
The proposed project extends existing residential development and would have a less than significant impact on GHG emissions because it is a small project, and as such would not conflict or be inconsistent with State CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b).

MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 15, 2026
TO: Cesar Orozco, Planning Manager, City of Vallejo
FROM: Theresa Wallace, AICP, Principal
Florentina Craciun, Senior Environmental Planner
SUBJECT: Vista Cove Planned Development Project Subsequent Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Text Revisions
This memorandum presents specific changes to the text of the Subsequent Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) that are being made to clarify and supplement materials in the Subsequent IS/MND. The revised text does not provide new information that would result in any new significant impact not already identified in the Subsequent IS/MND or a substantial increase in the severity of an impact identified in the Subsequent IS/MND that cannot be mitigated to a less than significant level with implementation of mitigation measures agreed to by the project sponsor.
Thus, none of the text revisions would require recirculation pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5. The text revisions identified below are incorporated into the Final Subsequent IS/MND for the Vista Cove Planned Development Project. In the revisions shown below, added text is indicated with double underlined text. Text deleted is shown in strikeout.
SUBSEQUENT INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION TEXT REVISIONS Revisions to Chapter 2.0, Project Description
Based on comments received from the Vallejo Flood and Wastewater District (VFWD), the City has revised Section 2.2.5.2, Wastewater, and Section 2.2.6, Operations and Maintenance, in Chapter 2.0, Project Description, of the Subsequent IS/MND to add mention of the 6-inch sewer force main to connect the lift station to the existing sewer force main located in Shady Lane and to clarify that only the sanitary sewer would be publicly maintained, while the storm drains would be privately maintained. Text has also been added to state that the current lift station would be relocated and upsized.
In addition, Figure 2-4, Conceptual Site Plan, has been revised to show that Parcel E would be a VFWD-owned and maintained Sewer Pump Station. The original and revised Figure 2-4 are provided on the following pages.

2 Section 2.2.5.2, Wastewater, Page 2-20
The Vallejo Flood and Wastewater District (VFWD) maintains existing sanitary sewer lines within the vicinity of the project site. A new 8-inch sewer lateral would connect to the existing 8-inch public sanitary sewer main line located in Shady Lane at the northwestern corner of the project site. The sanitary sewer would be designed and installed to VFWD standards. The project would also include the replacement of the existing sewer lift station that currently serves the 141 single-family home development to the west of the proposed project site with an upgraded system to serve both communities and a new 6-inch sewer force main to connect the lift station to the existing sewer force main located in Shady Lane. The new lift station would be owned and maintained by the VFWD and the existing lift station would be relocated and upsized.
Section 2.2.6, Operations and Maintenance, Page 2-2
Within the residential areas, the individual lots, open space, common open space areas, and water quality basin would be privately owned by a dedicated homeowners association (HOA). The streets that serve the residential lots would also be dedicated to the HOA for private ownership and maintenance. The other remaining 10 acres of open space would be privately owned, managed, and maintained by the HOA.
All Uutility infrastructure located within the private streets, except for stormwater infrastructure, would be dedicated and maintained by the City/VFWD., while Stormwater infrastructure and utility infrastructure within the private alleys/paseos would be owned and maintained by the HOA.
Revisions to Section 4.3, Air Quality
Based on comments received from the VFWD, the City has revised Section 4.3, Air Quality, to discuss potential odor impacts associated with the proposed sewer lift station.
Section 4.3.3, Impact Analysis, Page 4-30
d. Would the project result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people? (Less than Significant Impact, No New Impact) During project construction, some odors may be present due to diesel exhaust. However, these odors would be temporary and limited to the construction period. Once operational, the proposed project would generally not include any activities or operations that would generate objectionable odors and once operational, the project would not be a source of odors. However, the proposed sewer lift station may generate odors due to the presence of hydrogen sulfides, volatile organic compounds, and other factors. The lift station would be owned and maintained by the VFWD and would be subject to VFWD standards. In addition, the proposed sewer lift station is not a new facility, but rather a replacement and upgrade to the existing lift station that currently serves the 141 single-family residences located west of the project site. The proposed lift station would continue to serve the existing community while also accommodating the development proposed under the project. Therefore, the proposed lift station would not introduce a new odor source to the area that would adversely affect a substantial number of people.
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
3 Furthermore, odor emissions are regulated under California Health and Safety Code Section 41700, which prohibits the discharge of air contaminants in quantities that cause a nuisance or annoyance to the public, as well as by the Bay Area Air District Regulation 7, Odorous Substances. Should the Air Pollution Control Officer receive ten or more odor complaints within a 90-day period, then the applicant would be subject to enforcement and corrective action, such as the installation of further odor control features. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people. This impact would be less than significant. No new impacts or substantially more severe significant impacts would result with implementation of the proposed project when compared to those analyzed in the General Plan EIR.
Revisions to Section 4.4, Biological Resources
Based on comments received from the California Department of Fisha and Wildlife (CDFW), Section
4.4, Biological Resources, has been updated to include a discussion of Swainson’s hawk and tricolored blackbird, and include recommended mitigation measures related to burrowing owl.
Section 4.4.3, Impact Analysis, Page 4-39
a. Would the project have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special-status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? (Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated, No New Impact)
Special-status species are defined as follows:
1. Species that are listed, formally proposed, or designated as candidates for listing as threatened or endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act or California Endangered Species Act.
1. Plant species assigned to California Rare Plant Ranks (CRPR) 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, or 3.
2. Animal species designated as Species of Special Concern or Fully Protected Species by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW).
3. Species that meet the definition of rare, threatened, or endangered under Section 15380 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
4. Species considered as a taxon of special concern by local agencies.
As discussed in Section 4.4.2.1, 65 special-status plant species have been documented in the vicinity of the project site; however, no special-status plant species were observed on site during the habitat assessments completed for the Biological Resources Report and the species documented in the greater vicinity have unlikely or no potential to occur on the project site. Therefore, the proposed project would result in no impacts to special-status plant species.
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
4 As discussed in Section 4.4.2.1, 52 special-status wildlife species have been documented in the vicinity of the project site. Of the 52 special-status species known from the region, five species were determined to have a moderate or high potential to occur within the project site, including the following: white-tailed kite (Elanus leucurus), northern harrier (Circus hudsonius [cyaneus]), shorteared owl (Asio flammeus), silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctivagans), and hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus). Although Swainson’s hawk (Buteo swainsoni) is known to occur within the region, the project site is located outside of the breeding range of Swainson’s hawk document in literature and Swainson’s hawk is deemed to have potential to occur on the [project site for seasonal migratory stopover only. Similarly, although the tricolor blackbird (Agelaius tricolor) is known to occur within the region, the seasonal wetland in the project area does not form reed or tule cover thick enough to support a tricolored blackbird breeding colony is the area is dominated by low growing (less than two feet tall) vegetation. In addition, the freshwater marsh wetland on the southern end of the project site, which would be avoided, is linear and less than the minimum 15-meter width of covered wetland habitat that tricolored blackbird requires to establish breeding colonies. Further, the dense vegetation along the southern tributary is a well-developed riparian canopy and does not support suitable vegetation for a breeding colony.
Construction activities associated with the proposed project could result in direct mortality of whitetailed kite, northern harrier, short-eared owl, and other native bird species nests, which would be considered a potentially significant impact. Impacts to active nests of this species and their eggs, chicks and young could occur during the removal of trees, vegetation, or other ground-disturbing activities. These activities could result in the direct removal or destruction of active nests, as well as generate audible, vibratory and/or visual disturbances that might indirectly result in nest abandonment. To reduce potential impacts to white-tailed kite, northern harrier, short-eared owl, and other native nesting birds to a less than significant level, Project Specific Mitigation Measures BIO-1a and BIO-1b would be implemented, which require the completion of pre-construction bird surveys should construction activities occur during the nesting bird season.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-1a Avoidance of Nesting Bird Season. To avoid adverse effects to the active nests of special-status
and other native bird species, tree removal,
vegetation removal, and initial ground disturbance
should be prioritized to occur during the nonnesting season, between September 1 through January 31.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-1b Pre-Construction Nesting Bird Surveys. A preconstruction nest survey for white-tailed kite, northern harrier, short-eared owl, and other native
bird species shall be conducted prior to initial
ground disturbance, including tree removal or
vegetation removal if it begins during the nesting
bird season (defined as February 1 through August
31). If active nests (containing eggs, chicks or young) are discovered during these surveys, a qualified
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
5 biologist shall establish a species-specific no-work
buffer around the active nest. Work may resume in
the buffer after the nesting season ends, or a
qualified biologist confirms the nest is inactive.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-1b would be implemented in compliance with state and federal regulations. Buffers would be implemented on a “species-specific” basis and special status species with potential for nesting, such as white-tailed kite, would have more substantial avoidance buffers implemented in the case of observance of active nests. Because potential impacts to specialstatus species would be avoided, no Incidental Take Permit (ITP) would be required.
As discussed in the Biological Resources Impact Analysis1prepared for the proposed project, there is no potential for the project site to support breeding burrowing owl and the project site represents poor wintering habitat, indicating that burrowing owl presence is unlikely. In addition to the lack of burrows, the project site is characterized by steeply sloping hillsides dominated by tall, unmanaged vegetation, conditions that are not conducive to burrowing owl presence. Nevertheless, in an abundance of caution, the proposed project would implement Project Specific Mitigation Measures BIO-5a and BIO-5b to ensure that potential impacts to burrowing owls would be less than significant.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-5a Burrowing Owl Habitat Assessment, Surveys, and Protection. A qualified biologist shall conduct a
habitat assessment and surveys for wintering
burrowing owl prior to construction if construction
starts during the burrowing wintering season
(September 1 to January 31). Surveys shall be
conducted if warranted based on the habitat
assessment and shall begin on or within three days
of August 1. The habitat assessment and surveys
shall follow the Department of Fish and Game Staff
Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation methodology
and the qualified biologist shall prepare a report
documenting the survey results. The habitat
assessment and surveys shall encompass the
project site and a sufficient buffer zone to detect
owls nearby that may be impacted, which is up to
500 meters (1,640 feet) around the project site
pursuant to the above methodology. Habitat
assessments and surveys shall occur annually for
the duration of the project, as conditions may
change annually and suitable refugia for burrowing
owl, such as small mammal burrows, can be created
1 WRA, Inc. 2024. Biological Resources Technical Report Vista Cove Project, Vallejo, Solano County, California. February.
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
6 within a few hours or days, unless otherwise
approved in writing by CDFW. Surveys for nonbreeding burrowing owl shall be spread over four visits during the nonbreeding season (i.e.,
wintering) and shall start on or within 3 days of
August 1 and continue to January 31, unless
otherwise approved in writing by CDFW. Time
lapses between surveys or project activities shall
trigger subsequent surveys including, but not
limited to, a final survey within 24 hours prior to
ground disturbance. The qualified biologist shall
have a minimum of two years of experience
implementing the above methodology. The project
applicant shall immediately notify CDFW if
burrowing owl is detected and implement a
construction avoidance buffer around any detected
burrowing owl pursuant to the buffer distances
outlined in the Department of Fish and Game Staff
Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation, which may be
up to 500 meters (1,640 feet). Any detected owl
shall be monitored by the qualified biologist to
ensure it is not disturbed during construction
activities. If take of burrowing owl cannot be
avoided, the Project shall consult with CDFW
pursuant to CESA and obtain an ITP before Project
activities may commence.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-5b Covering of Entrapment Hazards. To prevent burrowing owl from sheltering or nesting in
exposed material; all construction pipes, culverts,
hoses or similar materials greater than two inches
in diameter stored at the project site shall be
capped or covered before the end of each workday
and shall be inspected thoroughly for wildlife before
the pipe or similar structure is buried, capped, used,
or moved.
With implementation of Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-5a, which requires a burrowing owl habitat assessment and surveys for wintering burrowing owl prior to construction if construction starts during the burrowing owl wintering season (September 1 to January 31), and Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-5b, which requires all construction pipes, culverts, hoses or similar materials be capped or covered to prevent burrowing owl from shelter or nesting in exposed materials, potential impacts on burrowing owl would be reduced to less than significant.
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
7 The removal of 69 trees from the northern half of the project site could result in direct mortality of silver-haired bat and hoary bat adults and maternity roosts, which would be considered a potentially significant impact. Impacts to active maternity roosts of this species and their pups could occur during the removal of trees, vegetation, or other ground-disturbing activities in proximity to roost sites. These activities could result in the direct removal or destruction of active roosts, as well as generate audible, vibratory and/or visual disturbances that might indirectly result in roost abandonment. To reduce potential impacts to the silver-haired bat and hoary bat to a less than significant level, Project Specific Mitigation Measures BIO-2a and BIO-2b would be implemented, which require the completion of a bat roost assessment should construction activities occur during the maternity roost season.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-2a Avoidance of Maternity Roosting Season. To avoid adverse effects to maternity roosts of special-status
and other bat species, tree removal, vegetation
removal, and initial ground disturbance should be
prioritized to occur outside the maternity roosting
season, between September 1 through April 30.
Large trees (diameter at breast height [DBH] > 24
inches) removed during this season (September 1–
April 30) shall be cut using a two-phased system
where branches and limbs are cut and left on the
ground overnight prior to chipping or removal from
the site.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-2b Pre-Construction Roost Surveys. During the maternity roost season (May 1–August 31), at least
30 days prior to the removal of any large tree (DBH
> 24 inches) a bat roost assessment shall be
conducted by a qualified biologist to determine if
potential roost habitat is present.
If no maternity roost habitat is present, trees shall
be removed using a two-phased cut. Cut branches
and limbs shall be left on the ground overnight prior
to chipping or removal from the site.
If potential maternity roosting habitat is present,
the qualified biologist shall conduct an emergence
survey to determine if the roost is occupied or
assume the roost is occupied and establish a nowork buffer. If an emergence survey is conducted and does not detect bats, the tree may be removed
with no further measures required to protect
roosting bats. If roosting bats are detected, or the
tree is assumed to be an active roost, the tree shall
be given a 100-foot no work buffer and shall be
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
8 avoided until after the maternity roosting season is
complete. Once the maternal roosting season is
complete, tree removal shall follow the two-phase
approach for tree removal.
With implementation of Project Specific Mitigation Measures BIO-1a, BIO-1b, BIO-2a, and BIO-2b, BIO-5a, and BIO-5b, the proposed project would not have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special-status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the CDFW or USFWS.
Impacts would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. No new impacts or substantially more severe significant impacts would result with implementation of the proposed project when compared to those analyzed in the General Plan EIR.
Revisions to Section 4.7, Geology and Soils
The City has updated Section 4.7, Geology and Soils, to reference the memorandum prepared by ENGEO that states that the conclusions and recommendations provided in the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration prepared for the proposed project are still valid.
Section 4.7.2, Background, Page 4-65
Unless otherwise noted, the following analysis is based on the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration prepared for the proposed project1and the peer review conducted as part of the environmental review process2. Although the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration was prepared in 2022 and is only valid for two years, ENGEO has prepared a memorandum3that indicates the conclusions and recommendations provided in the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration are still valid. A copy of the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration, and peer review, and memorandum stating the conclusions and recommendations provided in the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration are still valid are included in Appendix E of this Initial Study.
Revisions to Section 4.13, Noise
Based on comments received from the VFWD, the City has revised Section 4.13, Noise, to discuss potential operational noise impacts associated with the proposed sewer lift station.
Section 4.13.3, Impact Analysis, Page 4-120
Off-Site Operational Noise Impacts. Adjacent off-site land uses would potentially be exposed to stationary-source noise impacts from the proposed ground mounted air conditioning units. These units are anticipated to operate intermittently throughout the day and night. The analysis considered worst-case conditions, assuming 24-hour operation, seven days per week. Based on the 1 ENGEO. 2022a. Vallejo Properties – Vista Cove, Vallejo, California, Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration.

9 reference noise levels detailed in the Noise Impact Analysis,1the highest operational noise level would average 33.3 dBA Leq at the sensitive receiver locations, which would not exceed the daytime or nighttime noise level thresholds of 60 dBA Leq or 50 dBA Leq, respectively, at any receiver location.
As such, the air conditioning units, which represent the primary source of operational noise, would not exceed the City’s established thresholds for residential areas. In addition, periodic testing of the proposed lift station during operation would also generate some noise. However, noise levels would meet the VFWD’s requirements for limited noise to ensure that this noise would be less than 4 dBA along the nearest residential property line. Therefore, the operational noise generated by the proposed project would not result in a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in excess of local standards as the project noise impacts were within the noise impacts evaluated in the General Plan EIR. Impacts would be less than significant. No new impacts or substantially more severe significant impacts would result with implementation of the proposed project when compared to those analyzed in the General Plan EIR.
Revisions to Section 4.18, Tribal Cultural Resources
Based on comments received from the Confederated Villages of Lisjan Nation, the City has revised Section 4.18, Tribal Cultural Resources, to add an additional mitigation measure related to the inadvertent discovery of tribal cultural resources.Section 4.18.3, Impact Analysis, Page 4-147 In the event that cultural items or human remains determined to be of Native American origin are encountered during project ground disturbing activities, Project Specific Mitigation Measures TCR-1 and TCR-2 shall be implemented.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure TCR-1 Protocol for Discovery of Native American Human Remains Cultural Items. The preferred protocol
upon the discovery of Native American human
remains is to secure the area, stop work within 25
feet of the find, cover any exposed human remains
or other cultural items and avoid further
disturbances in the area. All parties are advised to
treat the remains with appropriate dignity, as
provided in Public Resources Code (PRC) Section
5097.98. All parties shall treat tribal representatives and the event itself with appropriate respect.
If, after the appropriate Tribal representative has
been granted access to the site and it is determined
that avoidance is not feasible, an examination of
the human remains will be conducted to confirm
they are human and to determine the position,
posture, and orientation of the remains. The
following procedures shall be followed:

1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
10 • All excavation in the vicinity of the human
remains shall be conducted using fine hand
tools and fine brushes to sweep loose dirt free
from the exposure.
• In order to determine the nature and extent of
the grade and its contents, controlled
excavation should extend to a full buffer zone
around the perimeter of the remains.
• To initiate the exposure, a perimeter balk
(especially, a shallow trench) should be
excavated, representing a reasonable buffer a
minimum of 10 centimeters around the
maximum extent of the known skeletal remains,
with attention to counterintuitive discoveries or
unanticipated finds relating to this or other
remains. The dirt from the perimeter balk
should be bucketed, distinctly labeled, and
screened for cultural materials.
• Excavation should then proceed inward from
the walls of the balk as well as downward from
the surface of the exposure. Loose dirt should
be scooped out and brushed off into a dustpan
or other collective device. Considerable care
should be given to ensure that human remains
are not further impacted by the process of
excavation.
• Buckets, collection bags, notes, and tags should
be fully labeled per provenience, and a
distinction should be made between samples
collected from: (1) Perimeter Balk (described
above), (2) Exposure (dirt removed in exposing
the exterior/burial plan and associations, and
(3) Matrix (dirt from the interstices between
bones or associations). Thus, each burial may
have three bags, “Burial 1 Perimeter Balk,”
“Burial 1 Exposure Balk,” “Burial 1 Matrix.”
• The following records should be compiled in the
field: (1) a detailed scale drawing of the burial,
including the provenience of and full for all
human remains, associated artifacts, and the
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
11 configuration of all associated phenomena such
as burial pits, evidence for pre-interment grave
pit burning, soil variability, and intrusive
disturbance, (2) complete a formal burial record
using the consultants proprietary form or other
standard form providing information on site #,
unit or other proveniences, level depth, depth
and location of the burial from a fixed datum,
workers, date(s), artifact list, skeletal inventory,
and other pertinent observations, (3) crew chief
and worker field notes that may supplement or
supersede information contained in the burial
recording form, and (4) photographs, including
either standard photography or high-quality
(400-500 DPI or 10 MP recommended) digital
imaging.
• Photographs and images may be used only for
showing location or configuration of
questionable formation or for the position of
the skeleton. They are not to be duplicated for
publication unless a written release is obtained
from the Tribe.
• Association between the remains and other
cultural materials should be determined in the
field in consultation with an authorized Tribal
representative and may be amended per
laboratory findings. Records of provenience and
sample labels should be adequate to determine
association or degree of likelihood of
association of human remains and other
cultural materials.
• For each burial, all Perimeter Balk soil is to be
1/8”-screened. All Exposure soil is to be 1/8”-
screened, and a minimum of one 5-gallon
bucket of excavated but unscreened Exposure
soil is to be collected, placed in a plastic
garbage bag in the bucket. All Matrix soil is to
be carefully excavated, screened as
appropriate, and then collected in plastic bags
placed in 5-gallon buckets.

12 • Human remains are not to be cleaned in the
field.
• Prior to any physical action related to human
remains, a designated tribal representative will
conduct prayers and blessings over the remains.
The archaeological consultant will be
responsible for insuring that individuals and
tools involved in the action are available for
traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary.
• No laboratory studies are permitted without
consultation with the tribe. Lab methods are
determined on a project-specific basis in
consultation with Confederated Villages of
Lisjan Nation representatives. The following
procedures shall be implemented:
• The primary archaeological consultant shall be
responsible for insuring that all lab procedures
follow stipulations made by the Tribe.
• Prior to any laboratory activities related to the
remains, a designated tribal representative will
conduct prayers and blessings over the remains.
The archaeological consultant shall be
responsible for ensuring that individuals and
tools involved in the action are available for
traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary.
• To the extent possible, all remains, associations,
samples, and original records are to be kept
together throughout the laboratory process. In
particular, Matrix dirt is to be kept in buckets
and shall accompany the remains to the lab.
The primary archaeological consultant shall be
responsible for copying all field records and
images and ensuring that the original notes and
records accompany the remains throughout the
process.
• Laboratory study should be done making every
effort to identify unanticipated finds or
materials missed in the field, such as objects
encased in dirt or human remains misidentified
1/15/26 (\\aznasunifiler2\projects\2024\20241845 CYV Vista Cove Project\PRODUCTS\Subsequent MND\RTC Memo\Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo\Vista Cove Subsequent MND Text Revisions Memo.docx)
13 as faunal remains in the field. In the event of
discovery of additional remains, materials, and
other associations the tribal representatives are
to be contacted immediately.
• No laboratory studies are permitted on human
remains and funerary objects. The preferred
treatment preference for exhumed Native
American human remains is reburial in an area
not subject to further disturbance. Any objects
associated with remains will be reinterred with
the remains. Laboratory study should be done
making every effort to identify unanticipated
finds or materials missed in the field, such as
objects encased in dirt or human remains
misidentified as faunal remains in the field. In
the event of discovery of additional remains,
materials, and other associations the tribal
representatives are to be contacted
immediately.
• Should all, or a sample, of any archaeological
materials collected during the data recovery
activities – with the exception of human
remains – need to be curated, an inventory and
location information of the curation facility shall
be given to the Tribe for their records.
Project Specific Mitigation Measure TCR-2 Inadvertent Discovery of Tribal Cultural Resources:
If cultural resources of Native American origin are
identified during grading or excavation of the
proposed project, all ground disturbing activities
within 25 feet shall cease until a representative

appropriate mitigation for Tribal Cultural Resources
include, but are not limited to, protecting the
cultural character and integrity of the resources,
protecting traditional use of the resources,
protecting the confidentiality of the resources, or
heritage recovery.
[…] Nevertheless, implementation of Project Specific Mitigation Measures CUL-1, CUL-2, and Project Specific Mitigation Measures TCR-1 and TCR-2, are required to address the potential impacts to unanticipated tribal cultural resources, human remains, and associated funerary or ceremonial objects, the implementation of which would reduce impacts to less than significant with mitigation. Revisions to Section 4.19, Utilities and Service Systems Based on comments received from the VFWD, the City has revised Section 4.19, Utilities and Service Systems, to describe the installation of a new 6-inch sewer force main extending from the new lift station to tie into the existing sewer force main.

Wastewater. The VFWD provides wastewater collection and treatment services for Vallejo. A new 8-inch sewer lateral would connect to the existing 8-inch public sanitary sewer main line located in Shady Lane at the northwestern corner of the project site. The project would also include the replacement of the existing sewer lift station that currently serves the 141 single-family-home development to the west of the proposed project site with an upgraded system to serve both communities and a new 6-inch sewer force main to connect the lift station to the existing sewer force main located in Shady Lane. The new lift station would be owned and maintained by the VFWD City of Vallejo and the sanitary sewer and lift station would be designed and installed to VFWD standards. Utility installation would occur within the project footprint and there would be no impacts unique to infrastructure installation that would result in significant effects beyond those evaluated in the Initial Study.
Revisions to Appendix F, Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) In response to comments received, Appendix F has been replaced to include the final version of the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA). The content and conclusions of the replaced Phase I ESA is the same as the draft version circulated as part of the Subsequent IS/MND. T

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) has been formulated based upon the findings of the Subsequent Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) prepared for the Vista Cove Planned Development Project (proposed project).
The MMRP, which is provided in Table A, lists mitigation measures that would be applicable to the proposed project and identifies monitoring requirements. As the Lead Agency, the City of Vallejo is responsible for ensuring full compliance with all mitigation measures adopted for the proposed project. The City will monitor and report on all mitigation activities. Mitigation measures will be implemented at different stages of development throughout the project area. In this regard, the responsibilities for implementation have been assigned to the Applicant, Contractor, or a combination thereof. If during the course of project implementation, any of the mitigation measures identified herein cannot be successfully implemented, the City shall be immediately informed, and the City will then inform any affected responsible agencies. The City, in conjunction with any affected responsible agencies, will then determine if modification to the project is required and/or whether alternative mitigation is appropriate.
This MMRP has been prepared to comply with the requirements of State law (Public Resources Code Section 21081.6). State law requires the adoption of an MMRP when mitigation measures are required to avoid significant impacts. The MMRP is intended to ensure compliance during implementation of the proposed project and the conceptual development project. The MMRP must be adopted when the City Council makes a final decision on the project.

Section 3. Tentative Map Findings
1. The project is consistent with the goals and policies of the Vallejo General Plan and any applicable specific plans.
Facts in support: The Project site is comprised of two parcels with different general plan land use designations. The smaller parcel has a general plan land use designation of P-SF, which applies to residential neighborhoods primarily characterized by detached single‐ family homes. The larger parcel has a land use designation of R-MH, which applies to residential neighborhoods largely characterized by single-family homes typically located in the central and more historic parts of Vallejo. The maximum permitted residential density in the P-SF is 9 units per acre.
The maximum permitted residential density in the R-MH land use designation is 25 units per acre. As proposed, the Project would construct 51 additional single-family dwellings units on a vacant and underutilized infill site adjacent to existing residential development. The proposed residential density of the Project is 2.5 units per acre (or
4.9 units an acre on the 10.39-acres being developed), consistent with the maximum permitted density for the P-SF and R-MH designation. The Project is consistent with the goals and policies of the Vallejo General Plan, as shown in Exhibit B of this Resolution.
There is no specific plan applicable to the Project.
2. The project conforms with Title 15 of the Vallejo Municipal Code and the Zoning Ordinance.
Facts in support: The proposed Vesting Tentative Map proposes to subdivide two vacant parcels, totaling 20.8-acres, into 51 residential parcels and six open space, detention, and water quality treatment and street parcels. The Tentative Map is consistent with the proposed Planned Development and to the applicable standards of Chapter 15.08 (Tentative Maps) of Title 15 (Subdivisions) of the VMC.
As proposed, the Tentative Map conforms to the applicable standards set forth in Title 15, as it is consistent with goals and policies of the Vallejo General Plan as described in Exhibit B of this Resolution and includes all of the elements required for a tentative map set forth in VMC Section 15.08.030.
3. The project conforms with the Subdivision Map Act.
Facts in support: The California Subdivision Map Act (SMA) governs the division of land into smaller parcels, ensures orderly development and the provision of adequate infrastructure for new subdivisions. The SMA requires developers to submit maps showing how the land will be divided and ensures adequate access to utilities, drainage, and compliance with zoning and environmental regulations, thereby promoting public health, safety, and welfare.
The Project and its accompanying Tentative Map have been reviewed for consistency with applicable General Plan and Housing Element policies, the Vallejo Municipal Code (Title 15 – Subdivisions and Title 16 – Zoning), and the SMA. As discussed above, the Tentative Map is consistent with the Vallejo General Plan policies, and the proposed Planned Development, as shown in Exhibit C of this Resolution, including those related to lot size, lot coverage, landscaping, and other relevant development standards. The Project will also have adequate access to utilities, drainage, and infrastructure by providing new streets, sidewalks, water, sanitary sewer, storm drain lines, and bioretention and water quality basins, and a detention basin.
Section 4. Development Review Findings
1. The project complies with all applicable specific standards and criteria of the Zoning Code.
Facts in support: The Project will rezone the Subject Property from RLD and RMD to Planned Development. The Project is consistent with the Vista Cove Planned Development, as shown in Exhibit C of this Resolution, such as setbacks, lot coverage, building height and design standards.
2. The project is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable approved Specific Plan or Planned Development.
Facts in support: The Project site has a general plan land use designation of P-SF which applies to residential neighborhoods primarily characterized by detached single‐ family homes. Also has a land use designation of R-MH, which applies to residential neighborhoods largely characterized by single-family homes typically located in the
central and more historic parts of Vallejo. The maximum permitted residential density in the P-SF is 9 units and acre and 25 units per acre in the R-MH land use designation.
As proposed, the Project would construct 51 additional single-family dwellings units on a vacant and underutilized infill site adjacent to existing residential development.
The proposed residential density of the Project is 2.5 units per acre (or 4.9 units an acre on the 10.39-acres being developed), consistent with the maximum permitted density for the P-SF and R-MH designation. The Project is consistent with the goals and policies of the Vallejo General Plan, as shown in Exhibit B of this Resolution.
The proposed Project will add 51 additional single-unit dwellings to the available housing stock in the City on a vacant and underutilized infill site adjacent to existing residential development. The subdivision layout is compatible with the existing roadway network and existing residential development density in the surrounding area. The subdivision will have adequate vehicular and pedestrian access throughout the site and will feature of a mix of floor plan layouts to create an inviting neighborhood that will be complimentary to the existing neighborhoods in the vicinity of the Project.
The Project also includes a rezone to Planned Development (PD), as shown in Exhibit C of this Resolution.
There is no specific plan applicable to the Project.
3. The project complies with any design conditions, standards, or requirements imposed by a discretionary approval including but not limited to a Major or Minor Use Permit, Variance, Specific Plan, Planned Development, or tentative map applicable to the project or the location where it is proposed.
Facts in support: The City of Vallejo does not have any applicable design statndards.
The Planned Development Plan include separate design standards that relate to specific materials, colors, and development standards (e.g. setbacks, lot coverage, etc.).
There are no other discretionary approvals applicable to the Project or to the Project location.
4. The project is in substantial compliance with any applicable adopted design guidelines.
Facts in support: The Project includes a rezoning to Planned Development with adoption of a PD Plan that includes site specific design and development standards.
The Planned development Plan include separate design standards that relate to specific materials, colors, and development standards (e.g. setbacks, lot coverage, etc.). The homes have been designed in the “Modern Farmhouse” architectural style.
The homes will incorporate different finished materials such as stucco, stone or brick veneer, cementitious lap siding or panels, cementitious board and batten siding, and naturally decay resistant wood. The architectural detailing (shutters, eave brackets, corbels, exposed rafters/rafter tails, and/or beams) have been proposed to provide visual interest and richness to the elevations, thereby resulting in development that will be consistent with the design standards included in the Planned Development Plan.
5. The project will serve to achieve groupings of structures that are well related one to another and which, taken together, will result in a well-composed urban design, with consideration given to site, height, arrangement, texture, material, color and appurtenances, the relation of these factors to other structures in the immediate area, and the relation of the development to the total setting as seen from key points in the surrounding area; only elements of design which have some significant relationship to outside appearance shall be considered; Facts in support: The Project proposes to construct 51 new detached single-family dwellings with public streets, streetlights, and landscaping improvements. The Project proposes five different residential floor plans and three architectural styles to create visual interest throughout the subdivision, that are similar in overall height, setbacks and lot coverage. The location of the homes have been placed to not affect the view of the adjacent residential uses.
6. The project will be of a quality and demonstrates thoughtful site planning that will serve to protect the value of private and public investments in the area.
Facts in support: As described in the Planned Development, the architectural vision for Vista Cove subdivision is grounded in the principles of Wine Country Agrarian designs. Through thoughtful massing, material quality and variation, and detailed craftsmanship, the homes at Vista Cove subdivision would contribute to and enhance the aesthetic of the existing surrounding development.
The proposed dwellings will be setback from the street to create landscape buffers adjacent to private sidewalks throughout the proposed subdivision. The proposed subdivision layout will provide an open space buffer between existing homes to the north and will incorporate new single-family dwellings that are oriented toward the street. Required detention and bioretention basins are grouped together and sited at the rear of the subdivision to provide a buffer from existing residential development to the west and to reduce visibility from public view. The proposed street pattern layout does not incorporate sharp curves and will promote safety for vehicles and pedestrians.
The project includes a total of 9.74 acres of undisturbed open space across two parcels: Parcel A (8.36-acres) and Parcel B (1.38-acres). These undisturbed open space areas would be fenced with access via private gates to facilitate maintenance activities only, and they would have signage installed to prevent trespassing. Future development would not be allowed on either of the two parcels. The project will also include 3.55 acres of common open space, across two parcels (Parcel C and D), that would include one bioretention area, walkways, a loop walk around a flexible use turf area, and a vista overlook for residents. The landscape design includes droughttolerant and native landscaping to transition between the proposed residential area and adjacent open space.
7. The project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, if applicable, and the requirements of this Chapter.
Facts in support: See #3 in Section 3 above.
Section 5. Design Review Findings
Note: In accordance with VMC Section 16.604.02 the Design Review Board and Planning Commission has reviewed and independently considered the applicable development standards (including the zoning adjustments proposed in conjunction with the Draft Planned Development Plan, as described in the staff report), the overall design, architecture, landscaping and Project aesthetics proposed, and the City Council finds that all of the design elements are satisfactory as presented with no Project modifications recommended to the City Council at this time.
A. Is consistent with the purposes of this chapter, the design policies of the general plan and any applicable specific plan, any adopted applicable design guidelines.
Purposes of the Chapter
1. Establish regulations for an objective process that applies urban design principles to ensure that new construction supports the best of the city's architectural traditions.
Facts in support: As proposed, the Project meets an objective process that applies urban design principles to ensure that new construction supports the best of the city's architectural traditions, as discussed in detail below.
2. Encourage new structures that show creativity and imagination, add distinction, interest, and variety to the community, and are environmentally sustainable.
Facts in support: The proposed homes are designed in a ‘Modern Farmhouse’ style of architecture that will be constructed with a variety of high-quality building materials and painted with simple, neutral colors. Vertical and horizontal façade breaks, and appropriate building massing have been incorporated into the design of the subdivision and will create distinction in the context of the larger established neighborhood.
3. Promote architectural and design excellence in new construction and discourage poor quality development.
Facts in support: The Project details, colors, materials, and landscaping are integrated with one another in a way that ensures a visually consistent proposal.
Each building elevation will consist of building features, materials, and colors typically associated with the Modern Farmhouse architectural style. The homes will incorporate different finished materials such as stucco, stone or brick veneer, cementitious lap siding or panels, cementitious board and batten siding, and naturally decay resistant wood. The architectural detailing (shutters, eave brackets, corbels, exposed rafters/rafter tails, and/or beams) have been proposed to provide visual interest and richness to the elevations. Overall, the Project’s architecture and landscaping propose high-quality, long-lasting material that will result in a quality development.
4. Ensure that future development should:
a. Reflect the values of the community.
b. Enhance the surrounding environment.
c. Visually harmonize with its surroundings and not unnecessarily obstruct scenic views; and
d. Avoid nostalgic misrepresentations that may confuse the relationships among structures over time.
Facts in support: The Project reflects the promotion of development that targets underutilized sites, which is a policy identified in the General Plan. Due to its location, the Project will sit lower on the site as to not obstruct scenic views from existing residences to the east, and due to its nature and design, nor will it confuse the relationships among structures in the vicinity over time. The overall Project has been designed to wrap around the back side of the existing residential development in order to fit in with the existing development pattern.
5. Ensure that decisions on housing development projects are based on objective design standards as required by the State Housing Accountability Act (Government Code Section 65589.5).
Facts in support: The Project complies with applicable, objective general plan and zoning standards. Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the Housing Accountability Act (HAA), California Government Code Section 65589.5(j), the city may not deny the Project or approve the Project at a reduced density without basing its decision on the written findings under Section 65589.5(j), which read as follows:
1. The development would have a specific adverse impact on public health or safety unless disapproved, or approved at a lower density; and
2. There is no feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact, other than the disapproval, or approval at a lower density
6. Provide for new landscaping to create a visually pleasing setting for structures on the site.
Facts in support: Landscaping will be provided in the front yards, open spaces and around the bioretention basins. A total of 141 new trees, as well as shrubs and ground cover, will be planted within the Project to enhance the Project site.
The new landscaping will create a visually pleasing setting for the homes to be constructed on the site.
7. Promote the protection and retention of landmark, native, and specimen trees and if feasible mature canopy trees and other significant landscaping of aesthetic and environmental value.
Facts in support: The Project will remove a total of 69 on-site trees. An arborist report was prepared and a total of 83 trees were assessed, identifying seven different tree species, e.g. Coast Live Oak, Plum Cherry, Apple, Monterey Pine, Valley Oak, Toyon, and Strawberry Tree, with Coast Live Oak as the most common species. The trees ranged from poor to good condition. A total of 47 significant trees will be removed and replaced with a total of 141 new trees, as part of the Project.
8. Ensure that the design, quality, and location of signs are consistent with the character and scale of the structures to which they are attached and are visually harmonious with surrounding development.
Facts in support: As part of the Project, an entry monument sign, with an overall height of six feet and four inches, will be placed at the entrance of the new subdivision. The monument sign will be constructed of CMU blocks and will be precasted with board and batten veneer. The new sign will create a sense of place and is appropriately scaled with surrounding structures and is visually harmonious with the overall development. Additionally, new street and directional signage will be included.
9. Promote the conservation, enhancement, preservation, and protection of historic resources.
Facts in support: Not applicable; there are no historic resources near this Project’s location.
a. Design policies of the General Plan
Facts in support: The Project is consistent with the goals and policies of the Vallejo General Plan, as shown in Exhibit B of this Resolution. b. Adopted applicable design guidelines.
Facts in support: The rezoning of the subject site from Residential Low Density and Residential Medium Density to Planned Development, will include adoption of the Vista Cove Planned Development Plan which includes design guidelines for residential development and design standards, landscaping, and fencing standards. As proposed, the Project is consistent with the proposed Vista Cove Planned Development Plan.
B. Is consistent with any planning or zoning approvals by the director or the planning commission.
Facts in support: Not applicable; Neither the Director, nor the Planning Commission, have approved any previous entitlements at the site.
C. Complies with any other relevant city policies or regulations.
Facts in support: The Project as proposed complies with VMC Chapter 16.202 – Residential Districts, as the Project has been designed to meet the requirements, as detailed in Table 3 and 4 of Attachment 2 of the staff report. The City Council will act on the Development Review for the Project.
D. Meets the following criteria:
a. The aesthetic design, including its exterior design and landscaping, is appropriate to the function of the project and will provide an attractive
and comfortable environment for occupants, visitors, and the general community.
Facts in support: The proposed Modern Farmhouse architectural style includes a variety of different building materials such as stucco, stone or brick veneer, cementitious lap siding or panels, cementitious board and batten siding, and naturally decay resistant wood. With the application of neutral paint colors and installation of drought tolerant front yard landscaping as proposed, all design elements will complement each other and provide an attractive and comfortable environment for occupants and visitors to the subdivision.
b. Project details, colors, materials, and landscaping are fully integrated with one another and used in a manner that is visually consistent with the proposed architectural design.
Facts in support: As described above, the proposed materials, colors and landscaping will be fully integrated with one another and will be used in a manner that is visually consistent with the proposed architectural design of a Modern Farmhouse style.
c. The project has been designed with consideration of neighboring development.
Facts in support: The Project has been designed with consideration of the existing neighborhood development to the east.

During construction of the proposed project, the project contractor shall ensure all off-road, diesel-powered construction equipment of 50 horsepower or more used for the project construction meets, at a minimum, the California Air Resources Board Tier 4 Final emissions standards or the equivalent.
b. Project actions for protection of Nesting Birds (implementation of Project Specific Mitigation Measure BIO-1a and BIO-1b):
i. To avoid adverse effects to the active nests of special-status and other native bird species, tree removal, vegetation removal, and initial ground disturbance should be prioritized to occur during the non-nesting season, between September 1 through January 31.
ii. A pre-construction nest survey for white-tailed kite, northern harrier, short-eared owl, and other native bird species shall be conducted prior to initial ground disturbance, including tree removal or vegetation removal if it begins during the nesting bird season (defined as February 1 through August 31). If (containing eggs, chicks or young) are discovered during these surveys, a qualified biologist shall establish a species-specific no-work buffer around the active nest. Work may resume in the buffer after the nesting season ends, or a qualified biologist confirms the nest is inactive.
6 c. Project action for protection of Maternity Roosting Season (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure BIO-2a and BIO-2b):
i. To avoid adverse effects to maternity roosts of special-status and other bat species, tree removal, vegetation removal, and initial ground disturbance should be prioritized to occur outside the maternity roosting season, between September 1 through April 30. Large trees (diameter at breast height [DBH] > 24 inches) removed during this season (September 1–April 30) shall be cut using a two-phased system where branches and limbs are cut and left on the ground overnight prior to chipping or removal from the site.
ii. During the maternity roost season (May 1–August 31), at least 30 days prior to the removal of any large tree (DBH > 24 inches) a bat roost assessment shall be conducted by a qualified biologist to determine if potential roost habitat is present.
If no maternity roost habitat is present, trees shall be removed using a two-phased cut. Cut branches and limbs shall be left on the ground overnight prior to chipping or removal from the site.
If potential maternity roosting habitat is present, the qualified biologist shall conduct an emergence survey to determine if the roost is occupied or assume the roost is occupied and establish a no-work buffer. If an emergence survey is conducted and does not detect bats, the tree may be removed with no further measures required to protect roosting bats. If roosting bats are detected, or the tree is assumed to be an active roost, the tree shall be given a 100-foot no work buffer and shall be avoided until after the maternity roosting season is complete. Once the maternal roosting season is complete, tree removal shall follow the two-phase approach for tree removal.
d. Project action for loss of Seasonal Wetland (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure Bio-3a):
i. Compensatory mitigation for permanent loss of 0.49 acre of the seasonal wetland shall be required. Mitigation may be satisfied through purchase of mitigation bank credits from an approved mitigation bank, payment of in-lieu fees to an approved public agency or conservation organization (e.g., local land trust), for implementation of compensatory mitigation projects, or via a permittee responsible mitigation involving creation, restoring, or enhancing analogous habitat. The ratio for acres of mitigation to acres impacted shall be 1:1.
e. Project action for installation of Construction Fence (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure BIO-4a):
i. Prior to ground-disturbing activities, construction fencing or flagging shall be installed to delineate the riparian and freshwater marsh boundaries. The fencing will be checked regularly during construction activities to ensure that the fencing remains intact and functional, and that encroachment has not occurred into the sensitive habitat or boundary; any repairs to the fence or encroachment correction will be conducted immediately. At the end of the project all temporary flagging, fencing, or other materials would be removed from the work areas and vicinity of the channel.
7 f. Project Action for Construction Best Practices (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure BIO-4b):
i. Erosion control measures would be utilized throughout all phases of the Project where sediment runoff from construction may potentially enter nearby waters.
Appropriate sediment and erosion control BMPs (e.g., use of silt fencing and/or straw waddles around the perimeter of the construction zone) will be implemented during and following construction to minimize surface runoff originating from the Project and thereby protect water quality of the freshwater marsh. Erosion control structures would be monitored for effectiveness and would be repaired or replaced as needed.
1. Prior to construction, a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) would be developed. The plan would include the implementation and maintenance of erosion control measures.
2. Prior to construction, an Accidental Spill Prevention and Cleanup Plan would be prepared. This plan would include required spill control absorbent material, for use beneath stationary equipment, to be present on-site and available at all times.
3. No fueling, cleaning, or maintenance of vehicles or equipment would take place within any areas where an accidental discharge may cause hazardous materials to enter waterways.
4. Any equipment or vehicles used for the Project would be checked and maintained daily to prevent leaks of fluids that could be deleterious to aquatic habitats.
5. All equipment would be cleaned before arriving on the site and before removal from the site to prevent spread of invasive plants.
6. To avoid establishment of invasive, non‐native plant species on or adjacent to the Project Area, the following measures will be implemented:
a. Vegetation disturbances will be limited to those areas identified on construction plans and maps as slated for development or construction staging.
b. b. Erosion and sediment control materials will be certified as weedfree.
7. Staging and storage areas for equipment, materials, fuels, lubricants and solvents would be located outside of the stream channel banks and outside of nearby waters.
8. Stationary equipment such as motors, pumps, and generators, located adjacent to aquatic features would be positioned over secondary containment sufficient to arrest a catastrophic failure.
9. Stockpiles of excavated soil or other materials would be covered when not in active use (i.e., would not be used or moved for 72 hours). All trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose materials would be covered. g. Project Action for Protection of Trees (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure (BIO-4c):
i. In order to protect trees adjacent to the project area: In order to protect trees adjacent to the Project Area:
1. Trees not proposed for removal but adjacent to Project activities shall have orange construction fencing installed at the dripline. This shall be known as the tree protection zone (TPZ).
2. Work within the TPZ shall be minimized to the maximum extent feasible.
8 3. If work must occur within the TPZ, the fence can be removed temporarily, the tree trunk shall be wrapped in a waddle, and the fence shall be placed back as soon as work is completed.
4. All equipment and stockpiles must be in designated staging areas away from all TPZ.
5. All trees to be removed shall be felled away from any trees to be avoided.
6. If trees not proposed for removal require pruning, pruning shall follow ANSI A300 standards or be performed by a certified arborist.
7. If any roots are exposed from trees to be avoided, roots can be pruned up to the diameter of 2 inches and pruned at 90-degree angles. The roots shall be covered by a damp burlap sack or damp towel while exposed. h. Project action for protection of Burrowing Owel Habitat (implementation of Project specific mitigation measure BIO-5a and BIO-5b):
i. A qualified biologist shall conduct a habitat assessment and surveys for wintering burrowing owl prior to construction if construction starts during the burrowing wintering season (September 1 to January 31). Surveys shall be conducted if warranted based on the habitat assessment and shall begin on or within three days of August 1. The habitat assessment and surveys shall follow the Department of Fish and Game Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation methodology, and the qualified biologist shall prepare a report documenting the survey results.
The habitat assessment and surveys shall encompass the project site and a sufficient buffer zone to detect owls nearby that may be impacted, which is up to 500 meters (1,640 feet) around the project site pursuant to the above methodology.
Habitat assessments and surveys shall occur annually for the duration of the project, as conditions may change annually and suitable refugia for burrowing owl, such as small mammal burrows, can be created within a few hours or days, unless otherwise approved in writing by CDFW. Surveys for non-breeding burrowing owl shall be spread over four visits during the nonbreeding season (i.e., wintering) and shall start on or within 3 days of August 1 and continue to January 31, unless otherwise approved in writing by CDFW.
Time lapses between surveys or project activities shall trigger subsequent surveys including, but not limited to, a final survey within 24 hours prior to ground disturbance. The qualified biologist shall have a minimum of two years of experience implementing the above methodology. The project applicant shall immediately notify CDFW if burrowing owl is detected and implement a construction avoidance buffer around any detected burrowing owl pursuant to the buffer distances outlined in the Department of Fish and Game Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation, which may be up to 500 meters (1,640 feet). Any detected owl shall be monitored by the qualified biologist to ensure it is not disturbed during construction activities. If take of burrowing owl cannot be avoided, the Project shall consult with CDFW pursuant to CESA and obtain an ITP before Project activities may commence. ii. To prevent burrowing owl from sheltering or nesting in exposed material; all construction pipes, culverts, hoses or similar materials greater than two inches in diameter stored at the project site shall be capped or covered before the end of each workday and shall be inspected thoroughly for wildlife before the pipe or similar structure is buried, capped, used, or moved.
9 i. Project action for Unknown Discovery of Archaeological (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures CUL-1):
i. Should an archaeological deposit be encountered during project subsurface construction activities, all ground-disturbing activities within 25 feet shall be redirected and a qualified archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for Archaeology contacted to assess the situation, determine if the deposit qualifies as a historical resource, consult with agencies as appropriate, and make recommendations for the treatment of the discovery.
If the deposit is found to be significant (i.e., eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources), the project applicant shall be responsible for funding and implementing appropriate mitigation measures. Mitigation measures may include recording the archaeological deposit, data recovery and analysis, and public outreach regarding the scientific and cultural importance of the discovery. Upon completion of the selected mitigations, a report documenting methods, findings, and recommendations shall be prepared by the qualified archaeologist and submitted to the City of Vallejo for review, and the final report shall be submitted to the Northwest Information Center at Sonoma State University. Significant archaeological materials shall be submitted to an appropriate local curation facility and used for future research and public interpretive displays, as appropriate. j. Project action for Human Remains Discovery (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures CUL-2):
i. If human remains are encountered, State Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to State PRC Section 5097.98. The County Coroner and the City must be notified of the find immediately. If the remains are determined to be Native American, the County Coroner would notify the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), which would determine and notify a Most Likely Descendant (MLD) and the following provisions shall apply:
1. The Medical Examiner shall immediately be notified, ground disturbing activities in that location shall cease within 25 feet of the discovery and the Tribe shall be allowed, pursuant to California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 5097.98(a) to inspect the site of the discovery and make determinations as to how the human remains and grave goods should be treated and disposed of with appropriate dignity.
2. The Tribe shall complete its inspection and make its MLD recommendation within forty-eight (48) hours of getting access to the site. The Tribe shall have the final determination as to the disposition and treatment of human remains and grave goods. Said determination may include avoidance of the human remains, reburial on-site or reburial on tribal or other lands that will not be disturbed in the future.
3. The Tribe may wish to rebury said remains and grave goods or ceremonial and cultural items on or near the site of their discovery, in an area which will not be subject to future disturbances over a prolonged period of time.
Reburial of human remains shall be accomplished in compliance with California PRC Sections 5097.98(a) and (b). The term “human remains” encompasses more than human bones because the Tribe’s traditions call
10 for the burial of associated cultural items with the deceased (funerary objects), and/or the ceremonial burning of Native American human remains, funerary objects, grave goods, and animals. Ashes, soils, and other remnants of these burning ceremonies, as well as associated funerary objects and unassociated funerary objects buried with or found near the Native American remains are to be treated in the same manner as bones or bone fragments that remain intact.
4. Unless otherwise required by law, the site of any reburial of Native American human remains shall not be disclosed and will not be governed by public disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act (California Government Code Section 6250 et. seq). The Medical Examiner shall withhold public disclosure of information related to such reburial pursuant to the specific exemption set forth in California Government Code Section 6254(r). The Tribe will require that the location for reburial is recorded with the California Historic Resources Inventory System (CHRIS) on a form that is acceptable to the CHRIS center. The Tribe may also suggest that the landowner enter into an agreement regarding the confidentiality of site information that will run with title on the property.
5. Treatment of all cultural items, including ceremonial items and archaeological items will reflect the religious beliefs, customs, and practices of the Tribe. All cultural items, including ceremonial items and archaeological items, which may be found at a Project site, should be turned over to the Tribe for appropriate treatment, unless otherwise ordered by a court of agency of competent jurisdiction. The project applicant should waive any and all claims to ownership of Tribal ceremonial and cultural items, including archaeological items, which may be found on a project site in favor of the Tribe. If any intermediary (e.g., an archaeological retained by the project applicant) is necessary, said entity or individual shall not possess those items for longer than is reasonably necessary, as determined solely by the Tribe.
6. If additional significant sites or sites not identified as significant in the environmental review process, but later determined to be significant are located within a project impact area, such sites will be subjected to further archaeological and cultural significance evaluation by the project applicant, Solano County and the Tribe to determine if additional mitigation measures are necessary to treat sites in a culturally appropriate manner consistent with CEQA requirements for mitigation of impacts to cultural resources. If there are human remains present that have been identified as Native American, all work will cease for a period of up to 30 days in accordance with Federal Law.
k. Project Action for Design-level Geotechnical Review (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures GEO-1):
i. A licensed Geotechnical Engineer or their representative shall be retained to perform a design‐level geotechnical investigation once site development plans are final. The design‐level geotechnical investigation shall include further evaluation of potential geologic hazards related to landslides, stability of graded slopes, corrective grading for planned building sites, and the presence of moderate to highly expansive soil and bedrock. The design‐level investigation findings shall be used to address all the
11 geotechnical concerns described in the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration and to develop detailed recommendations for design and construction. The recommendations of the Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration and any recommendations included in the required design‐level geotechnical investigation for the project shall be incorporated into all design and engineering plans. At the end of construction, the Geotechnical Engineer shall provide a letter regarding contractor compliance with project plans and specifications and with the recommendations of the Geotechnical Investigation and any supplemental recommendations issued during construction. The letter shall be submitted for review to the City of Vallejo Building Division and confirmed prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. l. Project action for Discovery of Paleontological Resources (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures GEO-2):
i. Should paleontological resources be encountered during project subsurface construction activities, all ground-disturbing activities within 25 feet shall be redirected and a qualified paleontologist contacted to assess the situation, consult with agencies as appropriate, and make recommendations for the treatment of the discovery.
For purposes of this mitigation, a “qualified paleontologist” shall be an individual with the following qualifications:
1. a graduate degree in paleontology or geology and/or a person with a demonstrated publication record in peer-reviewed paleontological journals;
2. at least 2 years of professional experience related to paleontology;
3. proficiency in recognizing fossils in the field and determining their significance;
4. expertise in local geology, stratigraphy, and biostratigraphy; and
5. experience collecting vertebrate fossils in the field. If the paleontological resources are found to be significant and project activities cannot avoid them, measures shall be implemented to ensure that the project does not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of the paleontological resource.
Measures may include monitoring, recording the fossil locality, data recovery and analysis, a final report, and accessioning the fossil material and technical report to a paleontological repository. Upon completion of the assessment, a report documenting methods, findings, and recommendations shall be prepared and submitted to the City of Vallejo for review. If paleontological materials are recovered, this report also shall be submitted to a paleontological repository, such as the University of California Museum of Paleontology, along with significant paleontological materials. Public educational outreach may also be appropriate.
The project sponsor shall inform its contractor(s) of the sensitivity of the project site for paleontological resources and shall verify that the following directive has been included in the project grading plans: “The subsurface of the construction site may be sensitive for fossils. If fossils are encountered during project subsurface construction, all ground-disturbing activities within 25 feet shall be redirected and a qualified paleontologist contacted to assess the situation, consult with agencies as appropriate, and make recommendations for the treatment of the discovery. Project personnel shall not collect or move any paleontological materials. Fossils can
12 include plants and animals, and such trace fossil evidence of past life as tracks or plant imprints. Ancient marine sediments may contain invertebrate fossils such as snails, clam and oyster shells, sponges, and protozoa; and vertebrate fossils such as fish, whale, and sea lion bones. Contractor acknowledges and understands that excavation or removal of paleontological material is prohibited by law and constitutes a misdemeanor under California Public Resources Code, Section 5097.5.”
m. Project action for Emergency Response and Cleanup (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures HAZ-1):
i. Prior to commencement of construction activities, the construction contractor shall prepare an Emergency Response and Cleanup Plan. The construction contractor shall implement the plan during construction. The plan shall detail the methods to be used to contain and clean up a spill of petroleum products or other hazardous materials in the work area.
n. Project action for Construction Equipment Maintenance, Refueling and Washing Activities (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures HAZ-2):
i. During construction, the construction contractor shall ensure that all equipment maintenance, refueling, and storage are conducted on level ground outside the aquatic features within the project site, away from concentrated flows of stormwater and drainage courses. Drip pans or absorbent pads shall be used during equipment refueling and maintenance activities. Adequate quantities of absorbent spill cleanup material and spill kits shall be kept in the refueling and maintenance area and on fuel trucks. Spill cleanup materials shall be disposed of immediately after use. o. Project action for Protocol for Discovery of Native American Human Remains (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures TCR-1) i. The preferred protocol upon the discovery of Native American human remains is to secure the area, stop work within 25 feet of the find, cover any exposed human remains or other cultural items and avoid further disturbances in the area. All parties are advised to treat the remains with appropriate dignity, as provided in Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 5097.98. All parties shall treat tribal representatives and the event itself with appropriate respect. If, after the appropriate Tribal representative has been granted access to the site and it is determined that avoidance is not feasible, an examination of the human remains will be conducted to confirm they are human and to determine the position, posture, and orientation of the remains. The following procedures shall be followed:
1. All excavation in the vicinity of the human remains shall be conducted using fine hand tools and fine brushes to sweep loose dirt free from the exposure.
2. In order to determine the nature and extent of the grade and its contents, controlled excavation should extend to a full buffer zone around the perimeter of the remains.
3. To initiate the exposure, a perimeter balk (especially, a shallow trench) should be excavated, representing a reasonable buffer a minimum of 10 centimeters around the maximum extent of the known skeletal remains, with attention to counterintuitive discoveries or unanticipated finds relating
13 to this or other remains. The dirt from the perimeter balk should be bucketed, distinctly labeled, and screened for cultural materials.
4. Excavation should then proceed inward from the walls of the balk as well as downward from the surface of the exposure. Loose dirt should be scooped out and brushed off into a dustpan or other collective device. Considerable care should be given to ensure that human remains are not further impacted by the process of excavation.
5. Buckets, collection bags, notes, and tags should be fully labeled per provenience, and a distinction should be made between samples collected from: (1) Perimeter Balk (described above), (2) Exposure (dirt removed in exposing the exterior/burial plan and associations, and (3) Matrix (dirt from the interstices between bones or associations). Thus, each burial may have three bags, “Burial 1 Perimeter Balk,” “Burial 1 Exposure Balk,” “Burial 1 Matrix.”
6. The following records should be compiled in the field:
a. A detailed scale drawing of the burial, including the provenience of and full for all human remains, associated artifacts, and the configuration of all associated phenomena such as burial pits, evidence for pre-interment grave pit burning, soil variability, and intrusive disturbance,
b. Complete a formal burial record using the consultants proprietary form or other standard form providing information on site #, unit or other proveniences, level depth, depth and location of the burial from a fixed datum, workers, date(s), artifact list, skeletal inventory, and other pertinent observations,
c. Crew chief and worker field notes that may supplement or supersede information contained in the burial recording form, and d. Photographs, including either standard photography or high-quality (400-500 DPI or 10 MP recommended) digital imaging.
7. Photographs and images may be used only for showing location or configuration of questionable formation or for the position of the skeleton.
They are not to be duplicated for publication unless a written release is obtained from the Tribe.
8. Association between the remains and other cultural materials should be determined in the field in consultation with an authorized Tribal representative and may be amended per laboratory findings. Records of provenience and sample labels should be adequate to determine association or degree of likelihood of association of human remains and other cultural materials.
9. For each burial, all Perimeter Balk soil is to be 1/8”-screened. All Exposure soil is to be 1/8”-screened, and a minimum of one 5-gallon bucket of excavated but unscreened Exposure soil is to be collected, placed in a plastic garbage bag in the bucket. All Matrix soil is to be carefully excavated, screened as appropriate, and then collected in plastic bags placed in 5- gallon buckets.
10. Human remains are not to be cleaned in the field.
14 11. Prior to any physical action related to human remains, a designated tribal representative will conduct prayers and blessings over the remains. The archaeological consultant will be responsible for insuring that individuals and tools involved in the action are available for traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary.
12. No laboratory studies are permitted without consultation with the tribe. Lab methods are determined on a project-specific basis in consultation with Confederated Villages of Lisjan Nation representatives. The following procedures shall be implemented:
13. The primary archaeological consultant shall be responsible for insuring that all lab procedures follow stipulations made by the Tribe.
14. Prior to any laboratory activities related to the remains, a designated tribal representative will conduct prayers and blessings over the remains. The archaeological consultant shall be responsible for ensuring that individuals and tools involved in the action are available for traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary.
15. To the extent possible, all remains, associations, samples, and original records are to be kept together throughout the laboratory process. In particular, Matrix dirt is to be kept in buckets and shall accompany the remains to the lab. The primary archaeological consultant shall be responsible for copying all field records and images and ensuring that the original notes and records accompany the remains throughout the process.
16. Laboratory study should be done making every effort to identify unanticipated finds or materials missed in the field, such as objects encased in dirt or human remains misidentified as faunal remains in the field. In the event of discovery of additional remains, materials, and other associations the tribal representatives are to be contacted immediately.
17. No laboratory studies are permitted on human remains and funerary objects. The preferred treatment preference for exhumed Native American human remains is reburial in an area not subject to further disturbance. Any objects associated with remains will be reinterred with the remains.
Laboratory study should be done making every effort to identify unanticipated finds or materials missed in the field, such as objects encased in dirt or human remains misidentified as faunal remains in the field. In the event of discovery of additional remains, materials, and other associations the tribal representatives are to be contacted immediately.
18. Should all, or a sample, of any archaeological materials collected during the data recovery activities – with the exception of human remains – need to be curated, an inventory and location information of the curation facility shall be given to the Tribe for their records.
p. Project action for Inadvertent Discovery of Tribal Cultural Resources (implementation of Project specific mitigation measures TCR-2):
i. If cultural resources of Native American origin are identified during grading or excavation of the proposed project, all ground disturbing activities within 25 feet
15 shall cease until a representative from the appropriate Tribal representative (consulting Tribe(s)) is consulted by the government agency. If the entity in consultation with the consulting Tribe(s), determines that the resource is a Tribal Cultural Resource and thus significant under CEQA, the entity shall retain a Tribal representative and, if applicable, a qualified archaeologist, at the applicant’s expense, to prepare a mitigation plan, which shall be implemented in consultation with the consulting Tribe. The mitigation plan shall include avoidance of the resource or, if avoidance of the resource is not feasible, the plan shall outline appropriate treatment of the resource in coordination with the consulting Tribe. Examples of appropriate mitigation for Tribal Cultural Resources include, but are not limited to, protecting the cultural character and integrity of the resources, protecting traditional use of the resources, protecting the confidentiality of the resources, or heritage recovery.
23. All model homes that are landscaped shall use signs and written information to demonstrate the principles of water efficient landscapes described in VMC Chapter 16.504. Signs shall be used to identify the model as an example of a water efficient landscape featuring elements such as hydrozones, irrigation equipment, and others that contribute to the overall water efficient theme.

(VMC Section 16.602.11 (C.1))
16 29. For new developments, utilities including, but not limited to, all electrical, telephone, cable television, fiber-optic cable, gas, water, sewer, irrigation/recycled water, and similar distribution lines providing direct service to a project shall be installed underground within the site. This requirement may be waived by the Director upon determining that underground installation is infeasible, or the electrical line is otherwise exempt from an under-grounding requirement. (VMC Section 16.501.10)
30. Within five business days after project approval, the Applicant shall pay the Notice of Determination filing fee (the latest fees in effect at the time of payment) for County Clerk processing, made payable to Solano County and submitted to the City of Vallejo Planning Division. If an in-person filing is required, such filing shall be completed by the Applicant, unless directed otherwise by the Planning Division.

POLICY NBE-1.6
Open Space. Conserve and enhance natural
open space areas in and adjacent to Vallejo
and its waterfront.
The proposed project would preserve
approximately 13.25-acres of the project site as
natural open space and approximately, 9.86-
acres of the 13.25-acres of the open space will
be deed restricted in perpetuity to ensure it is
maintained as natural open space.
POLICY NBE-1.8
Urban Forest. Encourage planting of street
trees and landscaping to beautify the city,
encourage walking and biking, and create a
stronger sense of identity.
The project involves the planting of 141 trees,
and many shrubs and ground covers
contributing to the beautification of Vallejo and
the cultivation of an urban forest. The
construction of sidewalk improvements within
the project will encourage walking within the
subject site.
POLICY NBE-2.3
Inviting, Compatible Design. Promote
attractive development that is compatible with
surrounding uses.
The 51 detached single-family residences will
incorporate a Modern Farmhouse style look, and
the building height and massing of the structures
will not be out of scale with those located in
close proximity.
Action NBE-2.3A:
Continue to utilize development approval
conditions to achieve compatibility between
nearby uses and scale and style of buildings,
and to establish limitations on activities that
could create potential adverse effects.
The scale and style of the residences is
compatible with the scale and style of the
nearby subdivision.
Policy NBE-1.15
Energy Efficiency. Support measures to
reduce energy consumption and increase
energy efficiency in residential, commercial,
industrial, and public buildings.
The project would be required to comply with
standards set forth in the California Building
Code (CBC) Title 24, which would minimize the
wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary
consumption of energy resources during
operation. California’s Green Building Standards
Code (CBC Title 24, Part 11) requires
implementation of energy efficient light fixtures
and building materials into the design of new
construction projects.
Policy NBE-1.5
Scenic Vistas. Protect and improve scenic
vistas, including views from Interstate 80 and
State Route 37 in Vallejo.
Although the project site is located
approximately 0.85-mile northwest of the
Carquinez Strait and 0.3-mile southeast of the
Benicia State Recreation Area, these features
are not identified as a scenic vista or significant
visual resource in the City’s General Plan. San
Pablo Bay, Mare Island Strait, the Vallejo
Waterfront, Sulphur Springs Mountain, Vaca
Mountains, White Slough, Napa River Wetlands,
and Sky Valley, the resources designated as
scenic vistas, are not visible from the project site
or nearby vicinity. These features are located
over two miles from the project site and views of
these resources are obstructed by intervening
development, topography, and mature trees.
The project site and surrounding areas are not
located within the residential view district and
would not impact scenic vistas of designated
views
Policy NBE-3.13
Neighborhood Character. Preserve the
character of existing single-family residential
neighborhoods.
The project at the northeast corner of Shady
Lane and Wildflower Avenue lies within a wellestablished, lower-density residential neighborhood of southeastern Vallejo. The
proposed homes will be similar in scale and
massing as those of the existing residential
neighborhood to the west.
Policy NBE-3.14
Neighborhood Corridors. Connect the
community with mixed use corridors that
function as neighborhood main streets for
adjacent residential areas.
The proposed development will connect the new
subdivision with an existing residential
subdivision that connects it to a mixed-use
corridor along Glen Cove Way.
Policy CP1.12
Clean Air. Protect the community from
harmful levels of air pollution.
The project will be required to comply with
MMRPAQ-2b.1 which ensures the proposed
project implements the Air District’s Basic BMPs
throughout all phases of construction. Measures
include watering exposed surfaces, covering
haul trucks, limiting vehicle speeds on unpaved
roads, using wet power sweepers, and
suspending work during high winds. Additional
requirements involve paving surfaces promptly,
washing vehicles before site exit, stabilizing
unpaved access roads, and posting contact
information for dust complaints.
Implementation of MMRP AQ-2b.1 would further
ensure that the proposed project would not
disrupt or hinder implementation of a control
measure from the Clean Air Plan.

of special-status species and sensitive natural
communities, and aquatic and important
wildlife habitat through land use decisions
that avoid and mitigate potential
environmental impacts on these resources to
the extent feasible.
The project will preserve hillside areas as open
space to prevent impact of the existing
topography of the site. Prior to construction per
the mitigation measures imposed by the MMRP
and as described in the SMND,, preconstruction
surveys will be required (such as roost surveys,
nesting bird survey, etc.) to ensure protection of
special-status species.
Additionally, as required by the MMRP BIO-3a ,
compensatory mitigation for permanent loss of
0.49 acre of the seasonal wetland shall be
required.

removal are considered to be significant (as
defined in VMC 16.701) and as such, are being
required to be replaced at a three to one ratio.
Action NBE-1.3B:
Work with landowners to facilitate assembly
and retention of parcels of sufficient size to
preserve valuable tidal marshes, seasonal
marshes, managed wetlands and contiguous
grassland areas for the protection of aquatic
and wildlife habitat.
See Policy NBE-1.1: Natural Resources above. A
9.86-acre parcel of the original 20.13-acre site
will be deed restricted to prevent future
development on the parcel in perpetuity.
Policy NBE-1.7
Green Infrastructure. Encourage the
installation of green infrastructure, including
tools such as permeable pavement, rain
gardens, constructed wetlands, grassy
swales, rain barrels and cisterns, and green
roofs, to treat stormwater, attenuate floods,
increase groundwater recharge, and reduce
urban heat islands.
The project will include bioretention swells to
treat stormwater from the new subdivisions.
Additionally, a total of 141 new trees will be
planted throughout the site, which will help
reduce urban heat islands.
Policy NBE-1.9
Cultural Resources. Protect and preserve
archaeological, historic, and other cultural
resources.
The project will implement sensitivity training for
all contractors prior to ground disturbance. If
remains are found, the developer will implement
Mitigation Measure CUL-1 (Unknow Discovery of
Archaeological Resources, CUL-2 (Protocol for
Human Ramins Discovery), TCR-1 (Protocol for
Discovery of Native American Remains), and
TCR-2 (Inadvertent Discovery of Tribal Cultural
Resources).
Action NBE-1.9A:
