REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONIBACKC3R UND: The proposed construction would extend Carol Lane its existing terminus west of State Route 4 westward to Live Oak Avenue. The project also includes creating an east west cul-de-sac extending east from Live Oak Avenue approximately one block south of Carol Lane. The proposed project includes approximately 820 m (2,690 ft.) of full width pavement construction, curb and gutter, underground drainage, sewer and water facilities, street lights, striping and traffic signs. These improvements are necessary to encourage economic development to the Oakley Light-Industrial area. The Oakley Municipal Advisory Council, a proponent of the project, recommendedfunding for the project. On November 2, 1998, the East County Planning Commission determined the proposed project to be in compliance with the General Pian. A Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental significance pertaining to this project was published. The Board has considered the Mitigated Negative Declaration together with all comments and responses to comments (see attached) received during the public review period. Four comment letters were received from neighbors living in the Heather Parc Subdivision,'' south of the proposed project. The primary concern of the neighbors was the increase in noise resulting from the Carol Lane extension. The acoustical analysis prepared for the project recommended mitigation measures which would reduce the noise impacts to an insignificant level. These mitigation measures have been incorporated'into the proposed project are included in the attached Mitigation Monitoring Program. This item was originally scheduled for the December 1, 1998, Board of Supervisors meeting. It was pulled from the agenda to allow time for staff to meet with the owner of property on the south side of the existing Carol Lane subject to acquisition. Staff met with the property owner and subsequently agreed to a minor revision of the alignment that would not impact the property (see attached site plan dated 1213/98). It was determined that the project description prepared for the CEQA document was adequate for the revised road alignment. In addition, none of the cicumstances identified in the CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5, requiring recirculation of the Notice of Intent to adopt a Negative Declaration, exist, Therefore, the CEQA document prepared for the proposed project is adequate. This project has been found to be de minimis in its effect on the environment and is exempt from the $1,250.00 Fish and Game filing fee. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVEACTION., If the project is not approved, the improvements cannot be constructed.
