DIRECT the Community Development Department to post the Notice of Determination with the County Clerk. 11. FISCAL IMPACT None. The applicant is responsible for application processing costs. Ill. BACKROUND / REASON FOR RECOMMENDING APPROVAL The applicant is requesting a General Plan Amendment to redesignate a 60-acre site from Single Family Residential — Medium Density (SM) and Delta Recreation (DR) to Single Family Residential- Medium Density (SM), Open Space (OS), and Parks and Recreation (PR); and a text amendment to clarify policies related to Discovery Bay West. Additionally, the applicant is requesting a rezoning of the site from Heavy Agricultural District (A-3) to Planned Unit District (P-1) and approval of a Final Development Plan for 203 single-family residential units, a 3-acre public park, and 5.2 acres of open space. The East County Regional Planning Commission heard the applicant's request on November 4, 2003. The Commission, after receiving public testimony and evaluating the proposal with the evidence submitted, voted unanimously to recommend approval of the proposed General Plan Amendment with associated text amendment, the proposed Rezoning to P-1 ((Planned Unit District), the proposed Final Development Plan, and approved the Vesting Tentative Map (SD8710) for 203 single-family units, a 3-acre public park and 5.2 acres of open space subject to the Board's approval of the General Plan Amendment, Rezoning and Final Development Plan. This is an infill project that is consistent with the density of the surrounding developments on three sides and provides a 3-acre public park that is located in a highly visible and easily accessible location. The design of the park will be a cooperative effort between the developer and the Town of Discovery Bay Community Service District to arrive at a design that will address the needs of the community. The project also proposes a 5-acre portion of open space at the southern end to provide a buffered edge to the development that serves as natural wetlands and bio swale as well. The storm water runoff from the site would be collected and conveyed to the bio swale that is located in the open space area. The water would then be filtered through a natural grassy area before being discharged into the Delta. This would serve to clean the runoff of sediments as well as providing compliance with the Clean Water Act. December 2, 2003 Board of Supervisors File#GP010003, RZ033123 and DP033008 Page 3 The development site is in Flood Zone A and would be required to be elevated approximately 6 feet. To mitigate the impact of construction traffic related to the import of fill, the applicant has agreed to extensive mitigation measures that lessen the impact on the surrounding area. The site also contains seasonal wetlands that originally were thought to be j'present throughout the southern one-third portion of the site, hence the current General Plan Designation of Delta Resource Recreation (DR). Since then, the applicant has conducted wetlands delineation and it has been determined that the site contains a total of 1.46 acres that are generally in the southwest corner of the site. The applicant requests a General Plan Amendment as part of this application,which among other things, requests an Open Space (OS) designation for the verified wetlands area. The circulation of the site is fully integrated into the surrounding developments by providing access from Point of Timber on the north and two streets into Village I to the west. There is also a street stub to the east to allow future access in that direction. IV. SETBACK CLARIFICATION At the November 4, 2003 East County Regional Planning Commission hearing, staff clarified the yard standards for comer lots to state that the side yards which are contiguous to a rear yard must have a minimum setback of 15 feet. The intent was to match the permit conditions with "Revised Site Plan" as shown in Exhibit, 7. Upon further review of this issue, staff is requesting additional clarification to COA#6Awith respect to Duet Lots and Lots 128 and 129 to ensure that the setbacks as shown on the Site Plan Exhibit are correctly implemented. The revision to COA#6A is shown as bold text.

and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors ("this Board")takes the following actions: 1. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the State CEQA Guidelines (14 Cal. Code Regs. §15000 et seq.), and the County's own CEQA Guidelines (together, "CEQA"),this Board FINDS that the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration("MND")is adequate for the purposes ofcompliance with CEQA and ADOPTS the MND for the Project as it has been modified. This Board specifically FINDS that none of the modifications to the Project or to the Approvals and Entitlements require new environmental review,or trigger recirculation of the Initial Study,or warrant any different conclusion regarding reliance on a Mitigated Negative Declaration, or require any new or revised mitigation measures. In support of these actions and conclusions, this Board ADOPTS the CEQA Findings. The Board of Supervisors adopts these findings specifically for each of the Approvals and Entitlements it approves or recommends for approval for the Project. The Board CERTIFIES that it has been presented with the Initial Study and that it has reviewed and considered the information contained in the Initial Study and the other information in the record prior to making the following certifications and findings. The Board further certifies that the Initial Study reflects the lead agency's independent judgment and analysis, and that the Initial Study has been completed in compliance with the CEQA Regulations. 2. ADOPTS the proposed General Plan Amendment (County File#GP010003) changing the General Plan land use designations for the Subject Properties from a combination of Single- Family Medium Density(SM)and Delta Recreation(DR)to a combination of Single-Family Medium Density(SM), Parks and Recreation (PR), and Open Space (OS), and the Board ADOPTS the findings contained herein. As part of implementing the change in land use designations, the Board also AMENDS the General Plan text to clarify policies for the Discovery Bay West area and INCLUDES this General Plan Amendment adoption as the third consolidated General Plan Amendment for 2003. 3. ADOPTS Rezoning (County File #RZ03-3123), changing the zoningdesignation of the Subject Property from Heavy Agricultural District(A-3)to Planned Unit District(P-1),and the Board ADOPTS the findings contained herein supporting this action. Resolution No. 2003/699 Page 3 of 3 4. APPROVES the Final Development Plan (County File #DP03-3008) subject to the conditions of approval as recommended by the East County Regional Planning Commission with modification for condition of approval#6a as recommended by staff and subject to the mitigation measures contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration for this project. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board makes the following findings for these actions: Findings I. Growth Management Element Performance Standards A. Traffic: In 1992, a traffic study was done for the DBWGPA that included the subject properties. The Amendment assumed 2,135 units at build out of the study area. The Hofmann Company has entitlements for 1,953 units and is in the process of developing the property. The Ravenswood Project proposes 203 single family housing units, including 182 units originally designated for development in the 1992 traffic study. Thus,this project includes 21 more units than studied in the EIR, a one percent increase. The 1992 EIR and traffic study utilized the East County Traffic Forecasting Model,which relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,104,700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same year,based on Projections 1994. Now, in Projections 2002,ABAG forecasts a 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about 2.67 percent less than previously forecast. Thus, traffic conditions predicted by the original EIR are not expected to be reached or exceeded by 2010. The specific mitigations listed;in the DBWGPA EIR are under construction with the Hofmann project. The applicant's traffic consultant(TJKM)conducted an updated traffic impact study in 2003 and found with these mitigations and the mitigations required for this project(MM XV a,b, d, f&G)that the project traffic was found to be less than significant. B. Water:This project's water demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR,and with annexation to the Town of Discovery Bay's Community Service District, the project will have less than a significant impact. The applicant has obtained a will- serve letter from the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District for water service. C. Sanitary Sewer: The project's wastewater demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with annexation to the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District the project will have less than a significant impact. The applicant has obtained a will-serve letter from the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District for wastewater service. Resolution No. 2003/699 Page 4 of 4 D. Fire Protection:A new fire station is located within a quarter mile of the project site. E. Public Protection: The project's public protection needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR.The applicant shall be required to comply with all county ordinances regarding public protection. F. Parrs and Recreation: This project's parks and recreation needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR.The 203 units generate a population legs than 1,000 people. This project provides a 3-acre park and 5.2 acres of open space. G. Flood Control and Drainage: The project will provide for the flood control and drainage needs of the development with appropriately sized;facilities, and pad elevations.The project is required to pay drainage area fees as adopted by the Flood Control District. U. RezoningFindings indings A. The site currently has a General Plan designation of Single Family Medium and Delta Recreation. The proposed subdivision has a General Plan density of Single Family Medium with a proposed General Plan Amendment to change a portion of the site to Parks and Recreation and Open Space. The change in zoning will substantially comply with the General Plan. B. The use proposed is a residential P-1 development to Single Family Medium standards (3.0-4.9 units per net acre). The site is compatible with the adjacent districts to the north,west and south,which are residential,and zoned Single Family High(SH)and Single Family Medium(SM). C. The proposed use will assist in meeting the housing development needs identified in the Housing Element of the General Plan. III. Findings for Adoption of Planned Unit(P-1) and approval of a Final Development Plan A. The applicant has indicated that they intend to commence construction of this subdivision within 2 Y2 years from the effective date of the zoning change. B. The proposed planned unit district is to Single Family Mediumstandards, which a substantial portion of the site is currently designated. C. The project will provide residential design that is consistent with the surrounding Discovery Bay West project and is in harmony with the character of the surrounding community. Resolution No. 2003/699 Page 5 of 5 D. This project integrates a park and open space into a residential development that balances the circulation,open space and residences into a harmonious development. 1V. General Plan Consistency A. The Project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan Amendment approved for this Project will not cause the General Plan to become internally inconsistent. The General Plan Amendment and the remainder of the General Plan comprise an integrated,internally consistent and compatible statement ofpolicies for the County. The various land uses authorized for the Project, and each of its components, are compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the General Plan. The Project is compatible with and conforms to the objectives,policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan. The Project will further the objectives and policies of the General Plan and not obstruct their attainment. The Project is compatible with, and does not frustrate, General Plan goals and policies. The Project is in harmony with the policies of the General Plan. B. The Board has considered the effects of the Project on the housing needs of the region and balanced those needs against the public service needs of County residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. The Project helps to achieve a desirable balance. The Project provides,to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities. The Project is in harmony with surrounding neighborhoods,and the site as designed for the Project is physically suitable for the development proposed. C. The General Plan comprises many objectives, policies, principles, programs, standards,proposals and action plans(collectively"policies'),as well as performance standards. At times the policies necessarily compete with each other. Examples of the tensions between General Plan policies are found between;those policies that promote managed growth,and those that provide for protection ofresources that exist because land is undeveloped(such as open space, visual resources and agricultural land). As part of approving the Project,all applicable General Plan policies and the extent to which the Project conforms to each of those policies have been considered. D. The Board has fully evaluated the extent to which the Project achieves each policy, including those pertaining to compatibility of land uses,compliance with principles of the Urban Limit Line and Measure C-1990, protection of open space, standards regarding geology,soils and earthquake risks,hazardous materials,flood hazards and drainage, protection of water quality, protection of biological resources, transportation standards and goals, regional and local housing needs,jobs/housing balance,noise,protection of air quality,protection of visual resources,standards for public services and utilities,and protection of archeological and historical resources. The Board has also fully considered the Project's compliance with all performance Resolution No. 2003/699 Page 6 of 6 standards in the General Plan,including the Growth Management Element policies and standards (including those for traffic levels of service), and performance standards for public services and facilities. E. The Board finds that through the development of housing at various economic levels, including attached duet units,the Project will help implement housing-related goals of the General Plan. F. The Board acknowledges that the existing General Plan designations for the Subject Properties were intended to separate the portion of the site available for housing development from the areas generally known to contain wetlands, which was not specifically identified at the time of the Discovery Bay West Approvals. The pending General Plan Amendment is intended to recognize the delineation of wetlands and the consolidation, retention and enhancement of wetlands within protected Open Space areas. The proposed residential designation is consistent with densities in neighboring development in the vicinity. G. In order to fully implement the change in General Plan land use designation for the residential portion of the Subject Property, the Board finds that it is appropriate to amend the text of the General Plan Land Use Element as follows. The Board finds that this text change will not cause any internal inconsistency with the remainder of the General Plan. The new clarifying text is: As used in the context of Policy 3-264, the term "Discovery Bay West Project"shall mean the land area contained within approved Subdivision 7686, which includes Village I, and approved Subdivision 8023, which includes Villages II,III, and IV. V. Measure C-1988 and Related Resolutions A. The Board has considered the Project's compliance with the traffic service objectives of Measure C-1988, the Contra Costa Transportation Improvement and Growth Management Program and related Contra Costa TransportationAuthority(OCTA) resolutions. B. Measure C-1988 established a Growth Management Program,"to assure that future residential,business and commercial growth pays for the facilities required to meet the demands resulting from that growth." The Program requires the County to adopt Traffic Level of Service(LOS) Standards keyed to types of land use,and to comply with the adopted standards;to "adopt a development mitigation:program to ensure that new growth is paying its share of the costs associated with that growth;" to participate in the forum established by the Authority to cooperate in easing cumulative traffic impacts, using the OCTA computer model; and to develop an implementation program that creates housing opportunities for all income levels. Resolution No. 2003/699 Page 7of7 ...........I.......I.............. C. The County has complied with all these requirements. Most important,the County is achieving Measure C-1988's overarching goal that development pay its own way. The County has identified Project mitigations to ensure that the Applicant will defray the cost of those improvements that are proportionately attributable to the development.

Agenda Item iD.2 on.December 2, 2003 Ravenswood Project(Western Pacific Housing) Dear Chair DeSaulnier and Supervisors'. Our firm currently represents the Byron Union School District. Condition of Approval No. 77 for the Ravenswood project, on page 35 of Exhibit 43 in your packet, has been modified by the East County Regional Planning Commission. The modified condition is consistent with the letter request to the Commission made by Superintendent Meyer, I do not see a copy of that letter in your packet. A copy is enclosed for the record. Condition of Approval No. 77 as modified confirms that the Applicant must mitigate project impacts on school facilities by either paying the state-mandated fee or entering a written agreement with the affected school district. The school district will determine which method is necessary to satisfy this condition. The school district's determination must be consistent with state law. Byron Union School District is currently undertaking a school facilities needs assessment to address anticipated residential development in the Discovery Bay area, including but not limited to the 203-unit Ravenswood project. Payment of a fee per residential unit at the time each building'permit is issued may not be sufficient to mitigate school impacts in a manner consistent with state law. The District looks forward to working with Contra Costa County Chair Marl{DeSaulnier December 2, 2003 Page 2 developers in the Discovery Bay area to reasonably plan for and fund new school facilities for school-age children in new residences within the District.

Deux Chair MadVittic: As you know, the Byron Union School District provides public education ror elementary and intertrsediatc school-age children in Discovery Say and Discovery BayWest. As such, the District will ' provide school facilities for children in the Ravenswood project if it is approved by Contra Costa County. C To address school impacts in Villages 1, If and l(I in Discovery Bay West,`doth aun Land Mvclopment Company entured into a school facilities agreement with the District whereby Hofmunn constructed the a Timber Point Elementary School and the District completed new facilities at the T-Neolsrior Middle C School. Such an agreement was requirW as a condition of Hofmann's tentative~map approval. In order to accommodate school:age children from the Ra+venswvod project as well as other residential C projects within the District, including the: pending Pantages project and potentially 'Village N in Discovery Bay West, it will likely be necessary for the District to enter into.a new school facilities- 0 agreement with Tapers like "Western Pacific Housing;. The District is currently undergoing a facilities assessment and demographics projection in order to conf x-ni the new facilities that will be necessary to accommodate the expected children who will reside in!'hese new drvclopments. Tn 1"S, new state laws were piloted regarding the payment of fees, chargers, dedications or otl er requirements of a dcvclopment project for the const uction or reconstruction of school facilities: Depending on the circumstances within a particular school district, the;payment of school impact fee`s repay be sufficient or a separate school facilities agmmxnt consistent with state law may be required.

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the State CEQA Guidelines(14 Cal. Code Regs. §15000 et seq.), and the County's own CEQA Guidelines (together, "CEQA"), this Commission FINDS that the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration ("MND") is adequate for the purposes of compliance with CEQA and ADOPTS the MND for the Project as it has been modified. The East County Regional Planning Commission ADOPTS these findings specifically for each of the Approvals and Entitlements it approves or recommends for approval for the Project. The Commission CERTIFIES that it has been presented with the Initial Study and that it has reviewed and considered the information contained in the Initial Study and the other information in the record prior to making the following certificationsand findings. The Commission further certifies that the Initial Study reflects the lead agency's independent judgment and analysis, and that the Initial Study has been completed in compliance with the CEQA Regulations. ...... _........ ......_..... .._. ._.. ....._. ..... ................................................... . 2. Recommends to the Board of Supervisors ADOPTION of the proposed General Plan Amendment#GP010003 changing the General Plan land use designations for the Subject Properties from a combination of Single-Family Medium Density (SM) and Delta Recreation (DR) to a combination of Single-Family Medium Density (SM), Parks and Recreation (PR), and Open Space (OS), and recommends that the Board ADOPT the findings. As part of implementing the change in land use designations, this Commission also recommends that the Board AMEND the General Plan text to clarify policies for the Discovery Bay West area. 3. Recommends to the :Board of Supervisors ADOPTION of Rezoning #RZ03-3123, changing the zoning designation of the Subject Property from Heavy Agricultural District (A-3) to Planned Unit District (P-1), and recommends that the Board ADOPT the findings contained in supporting such approval, subject to the Board's approval of the revised General Plan amendment. 4. Recommends to the Board of Supervisors APPROVAL of Final Development Plan #DP03-3008 subject to the conditions of approval as modified by the Commission, and subject to the mitigation measures contained MND for this project. 5. APPROVES Vesting Tentative Map #SD8710 subject to the conditions as modified by the Commission, which includes one exception to the County Subdivision Ordinance pertaining to the street grade on Point of Timber Road, all subject to the mitigation measures; contingent upon the Board's approval of the General Plan Amendment, Rezoning and Final Development Plan; and this Commission ADOPTS the findings supporting such approval and authorization. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the reasons for these recommendations are as follows: Findings I. Growth Management Element Performance Standards A. Traffic: In 1992, a traffic study was done for the DBWGPA that included the subject properties. The Amendment assumed 2,135 units at build out of the study area. The Hoffmann Company has entitlements for 1,953 units and is in the process of developing the property. The Ravenswood Project proposes 203 single family housing units, including 182 units originally designated for development in the 1992 traffic study. Thus,this project includes 21 more units than studied in the EIR, a one percent increase. The 1992 EIR and traffic study utilized the East County Traffic Forecasting Model,which relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,104,700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same year,based on Projections 1994. Now, in Projections 2002, ABAG forecasts a 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about 2.67 percent less than;previously forecast. Thus,traffic conditions predicted by the original EIR are not expected to be reached or exceeded by 2010. The specific mitigations listed in the DBWGPA EIR are under construction with the Hofmann project. The applicant's traffic consultant(TTKM)conducted an updated traffic impact study in 2003 and found with these mitigations and the mitigations required for this project(MM XV a, b,d, f&G)that the project traffic was found to be less than significant. B. Water: This project's water demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with annexation to the Town of Discovery Bay's Community Service District, the project will have less than a significant impact. The applicant has obtained a will-serve letter from the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District for water service. C. Sanitary Sewer: The project's wastewater demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with annexation to the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District the project will have less than a significant impact. The applicant has obtained a will-serve letter from the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District for wastewater service. D. Fire Protection: A new fire station is located within a quarter mile of the project site. E. Public Protection: The project's public protection needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR. The applicant shall be required to comply with all county ordinances regarding public protection. F. Parks and Recreation: This project's parks and recreation needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR. The 203 units generate a population less than 1,000 people. This project provides a 3-acre park and 5.2 acres of open space. G. Flood Control and Drainage: The project will provide for the flood control and drainage needs of the development with appropriately sized facilities, and pad elevations. The project is required to pay drainage area fees as adopted by the Flood Control District. II. Rezoning Findings A. The site currently has a General Plan designation of Single Family Medium and Delta Recreation. The proposed subdivision has a General Plan density of Single Family Medium with a proposed General Plan Amendment to change a portion of the site to Parks and Recreation and Open Space. The change in zoning will substantially comply with the General Plan. B. The use proposed is a residential P-1 development to Single Family Medium standards (3.0-4.9 units per net acre). The site is compatible with the adjacent districts to the north, west and south, which are residential, and zoned Single Family High(SH) and Single Family Medium(SM). _._. ........ . ......... ......... ....._....-_1.111. ......._. 1111... _ ......... .......... ............. ....-_.... ................................ ......_.. ......... ......... ......... ......... C. The proposed use will assist in meeting the housing development needs identified in the Housing Element of the General Plan. III. Findings for Adoption of Planned Unit (P-1) and approval of a Final Development Plan A. The applicant has indicated that they intend to commence construction of this subdivision within 2 2/a years from the effective date of the zoning change. B. The proposed planned unit district is to Single Family Medium;standards,which a substantial portion of the site is currently designated. C. The project will provide residential design that is consistent with the surrounding Discovery Bay West project and is in harmony with the character of the surrounding community. D. This project integrates a park and open space into a residential development that balances the circulation, open space and residences into a harmonious development. IV. Tentative Map Findings The project proposes a General Plan Amendment from Single Family Medium and Delta Recreation to Single Family Medium, Parks and Recreation and Open Space. The proposed project provides for 203 single-family residential units, a 3-acre park and 5.2 acres of open space. The proposed number of dwelling units conforms to the Single Family Medium designation of the site (3.0-4.9 units per net acre). The 3-acre park conforms to the Parks and Recreation designation. V. General Plan Consistency A. The Project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan Amendment approved for this Project will not cause the General Plan to become internally inconsistent. The General Plan Amendment and the remainder of the General Plan comprise an integrated, internally consistent and compatible statement of policies for the County. The various land uses authorized for the Project, and each of its components, are compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the General Plan. The Project is compatible with and conforms to the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan. The Project will further the objectives and policies of the General Plan and not obstruct their attainment. The Project is compatible with, and does not frustrate, General Plan goals and policies. The Project is in harmony with the policies of the General Plan. B. The Commission has considered the effects of the Project on the housing needs of the region and balanced those needs against the public service needs of County residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. The Project helps to achieve a desirable balance. The Project provides, to the extent feasible, for _...__. ......... ......... ......._. ......_._. . ..... .. .. ....... ....._.... ........ ........ ........... .....................__.._... _............ _. ......_... future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities. The Project is in harmony with surrounding neighborhoods, and the site as designed for the Project is physically suitable for the development proposed. C. The General Plan comprises many objectives, policies, principles, programs, standards, proposals and action plans (collectively "policies"), as well as performance standards. At times the policies necessarily compete with each other. Examples of the tensions between General Plan policies are found between those policies that promote managed growth, and those that provide for protection of resources that exist because land is undeveloped (such as open space, visual resources and agricultural land). As part of approving the Project, all applicable General Plan policies and the extent to which the Project conforms to each of those policies have been considered. D. The Commission has fully evaluated the extent to which the Project achieves each policy, including those pertaining to compatibility of land uses, compliance with principles of the Urban Limit Line and Measure C-1990, protection of open space, standards regarding geology, soils and earthquake risks, hazardous materials, flood hazards and drainage, protection of water quality, protection of biological resources, transportation standards and goals, regional and local housing needs, jobs/housing balance, noise, protection of air quality, protection of visual resources, standards for public services and utilities, and protection of archeological and historical resources. The Commission has also fully considered the Project's compliance with all performance standards in the General Plan, including the Growth Management Element policies and standards (including those for traffic levels of service), and performance standards for public services and facilities. E. The Commission finds that through the development of housing at various economic levels, including attached duet units, the Project will help implement housing-related goals of the General Plan. F. The Commission acknowledges that the existing General Plan designations for the Subject Properties were intended to separate the portion of the site available for housing development from the areas generally known to contain wetlands, which was not specifically identified at the time of the Discovery Bay West Approvals. The pending General Plan Amendment is intended to recognize the delineation of wetlands and the consolidation, retention and enhancement of wetlands within protected Open Space areas. The proposed residential designation is consistent with densities in neighboring development in the vicinity. G. In order to fully implement the change in General Plan land use designation for the residential portion of the Subject Property, the Commission finds that it is appropriate to amend the text of the General Plan Land Use Element as follows. The Commission finds that this text change will not cause any internal inconsistency with the remainder of the General Plan. The new clarifying text is: ......_.. ......... ......... ......... _._._. ....... ......... ............._.._......_.. _........ ........................................ ......... ......................... As used in the context of Policy 3-264, the term "Discovery Bay West Project" shall mean the land area contained within approved Subdivision 7686, which includes Village I, and approved Subdivision 8023, which includes Villages II, III, and IV. VI Measure C-1988 and Related Resolutions A. The Commission has considered the Project's compliance with the traffic service objectives of Measure C-1988, the Contra Costa Transportation Improvement and Growth Management Program and related Contra Costa Transportation Authority (OCTA)resolutions. B. Measure C-1988 established a Growth Management Program, "to assure that future residential, business and commercial growth pays for the facilities required to meet the demands resulting from that growth." The Program requires the County to adopt Traffic Level of Service (LOS) Standards keyed to types of land use, and to comply with the adopted standards; to "adopt a development mitigation program to ensure that new growth is paying its share of the costs associated with that growth;" to participate in the forum ;established by the Authority to cooperate in easing cumulative traffic impacts, using the CCTA computer model; and to develop an implementation program that creates housing opportunities for all income levels. C. The County has complied with all these requirements. Most important, the County is achieving Measure C-1988's overarching goal that development pay its own way. The County has identified Project mitigations to ensure that the Applicant will defray the cost of those improvements that are proportionately attributable to the development. ........ . ._.._.... ......... _........ .... ....... ...... ....... ........... ............. ......._._. 1.11 ......... .._._...

FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR COUNTY FILES #DP033008 AND SD871.0 AS APPROVED BY THE EAST COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION NOVEMBER 4, 2003 (CHANGES BY THE EAST COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION SHOWN IN UNDERLINE TEXT Findings I, Growth Management Element Performance Standards A. Traffic: In 1992, a traffic study was done for the DBWGPA that included the Ravenswood property. The Amendment assumed 2,135 units at buildout of the study area. The Hofitnann Company has entitlements for 1,953 units and is in the process of developing the property. The Ravenswood Project proposes 203 single family housing units, including 182 units originally designated for development in the 1992 traffic study. Thus, this project includes 21 more units than studied in the EIR, a one percent increase. The 1992 EIR and traffic study utilized the East County Traffic Forecasting Model, which relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,1041700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same',year, based on Projections 1994. Now, in Projections 2002, ABAG forecasts a 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about 2.67 percent less than previously forecast. Thus, traffic conditions predicted by the original EIR are not ;expected to be reached or exceeded by 2010. The specific mitigations listed in the DBWGPA EIR are under construction with the Hofmann project. The applicant's traffic consultant (TJKM) conducted an updated traffic impact study in 2003 and found with these mitigations and the mitigations required for this project (MM XVa,b,d,f&G) the project traffic was found to be less than significant. B. Water: This project's water demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with annexation to the Town of Discovery Bay's Community Service District, the project will have less than a 1 '' _..... ......... ......... ...... ........ ....................-_. ............. ................. ......... ......... ......... ....._.......... _ _._._.._. ..._................. significant impact. The applicant is working with the CSD to obtain water service. C. Sanitary Sewer: The project's wastewater demand was evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with annexation to the CSD the project will have less than a significant impact. The applicant is working with the CSD to obtain sanitation service. D. Fire Protection: A new fire station is located within a quarter mile of the project site. E. Public Protection: The project's public protection needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR. The applicant shall be required to comply with all county ordinances regarding public protection. F. Parks and Recreation: This project's parks and recreation needs were evaluated by the 1994 DBWGPA EIR. The 203 units generate a population less than 1,000 people. This project provides a 3 acre park and 5.2 acres of open space. G. Flood Control and Drainage: The project will provide for the flood control and drainage needs of the development with appropriately sized facilities, and pad elevations. The project is ;required to pay drainage area fees as adopted by the Flood Control District. Rezoning Findings A.

Nesting Ea ptors and Passerine (Perching) Birds 50. During the Swainson's hawk, burrowing owl, and loggerhead shrike nesting surveys, a valid attempt should be made to locate other nesting raptors and passerine birds on the project site. If nesting raptors are identified on the project site, a California. Native Species form shall be filled out and submitted to California Department of Fish and Game's Natural Diversity Database. A minimum 250 foot fenced buffer area should also be established around any nest site. This fenced buffer should be maintained until a qualified raptor biologist determines that the young have fledged and are flying well enough to avoid project construction zones (typically late August). If non-special-status passerine bird species are identified nesting on the project site, the nest tree cannot be removed until the young have fledged (typically July) (MM IVa,b c and d). 51. At least 10 days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that nesting surveys have been completed to the satisfaction of the California Department of Fish and Game and. US Fish and Wildlife Services. Swainson's Hawk 52. A qualified raptor biologist shall conduct a Swainson's hawk nesting season survey on the project site and within a quarter mile of the project site prier to grading activities; California Department of Fish and Game shall also be contacted to determine the closest known Swainson's hawk nest site to the project site. (Since Fish and Game does not frequently update their Swainson's hawk records in the Natural Diversity Database, a search of Fish. and Game's data base is not suitable; a Fish and Game biologist must be contacted for this information); 25 After the nesting season survey is conducted. and California Department of Fish and Game are contacted for nesting records, the applicant's biologist shall determine the value of the project site's foraging habitat and identify the required mitigation in accordance with the procedures identified in the Discovery Bay Vest General Plan Amendment Draft EIR; Any Swainson's hawk nesting on the project site shall be avoided during the project grading and construction by establishing a fenced buffer zone of 0.5 mile around the nest site between the dates of March 1 through September 15. ('Phis 0.5 mile buffer zone was established by California Department of Fish and Game in their,staff Report Regarding Mitigation for Impacts to Swainson's Hawks in the Central Valley of California). No earth-moving or other disturbance can occur within this 0.5-mile buffer zone. A biological monitor shall be present when earth-moving activity is scheduled on the project site to make sure that no work occurs within the fenced buffer area. If after the nesting cycle is completed a Swainson's hawk nest tree on the project site must be removed due to project construction, prior authorization from California Fish and Game is required in order to remove the nest tree (MAGI IV a,b,c and d). 53. At least ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that 1) a mitigation plan (suitable to the California Department of Fish and Game) and 2) the applicant acquired suitable offsite mitigation property to offset impacts to Swainson's hawk foraging habitat (and nesting habitat, if present on the project site). Burrowing Owl 54. Nesting season surveys (March through August) conducted in 26 ......... ......... ......... _........ ... .............._.......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......._. _. . .... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... .. .. .............................................................................. accordance with California Department of Fish and Game's survey protocol. A qualified raptor biologist shall conduct these surveys. If burrowing owls were not t-•-identified on the project site during the four season's nesting surveys, preconstruction surveys (conducted within 30 days of earthmoving activity) shall still be required. If nesting owls were identified on the project site, a fenced 300- foot buffer would be required between the nest site(s) (that is, the active burrow[s]) and any earthmoving activity or other disturbance. This 300-foot buffer could be removed once it is determined by a qualified raptor biologist that the young have fledged (that is, left the nest). Typically, the young fledge by August 31, or later, and would have to be determined by a qualified raptor biologist. If burrowing owls on the project site must be relocated to allow for construction, they must be allowed to complete their nesting cycle before they are disturbed. Then, relocation can only occur in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game. Non-nesting owls should also be relocated in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game. If burrowing owls are identified on the project site, mitigation of 5.5 acres for each pair or single unpaired owl must be acquired. For example, if one pair of owls and one single unpaired owl were identified on the project site, 13 acres of mitigation property would be necessary. If two pairs of owls were identified, 13 acres of mitigation property would be necessary. The mitigation lands shall be adjacent to known occupied burrowing owl habitat and at a location acceptable to California. Department of Fish and Game. Land identified to offset impacts to burrowing owls must be protected in perpetuity either by a conservation easement or via fee title acquisition. A Mitigation 27 ........................................................................................................................................................ ''I'll,............................................................. Plan and Mitigation Agreement must be prepared and submitted to California Department of Fish and Game for their approval. The Mitigation Plan (Plan) would need to identify the mitigation site and any activities necessary to enhance the site, including the construction of artificial burrows. The Plan shall also include a description of monitoring and management methods proposed at the mitigation site. Monitoring and management of any lands identified for mitigation purposes would be the responsibility of the applicant for at least five years. An annual report must be prepared for submittal to CDFG by December 31 of each monitoring year. Contingency measures for any anticipated problems shall be identified in the plan. (MM IVa,b,c and d) 55. If burrowing owls are identified on the project site, Contra Costa County shall receive copies of the Plan and Mitigation Agreement by and between the applicant and CDFG five days prior to issuing a grading permit for the proposed project. Bats 56. In order to determine the presence or absence of these bat species, a qualified bat biologist shall conduct a survey ofall structures on the project site. If special-status bats are found, the project shall avoid the roosting/maternity areas, if practicable, and a suitable buffer area shall be established around these areas. California Department of Fish and Game shall be contactedto determine an acceptable buffer distance. If special-status bats are found and avoidance of the roosting/maternity areas is not practicable, appropriate eviction methods would be necessary, and mitigation as prescribed by California Department of Fish and Game would also be required. Mitigation would likely include establishing roosting and/or maternity hibernacula on preserved portions of the project site, and establishing a monitoring program. (MM1Va,b,c and d) 57. If special-status bats are identified on the project site, the County 28 . ............ ..............I.......................I............................................................................................................ ............ shall not issue a grading permit affecting bat species until either an appropriate buffer is established around the existing bat roosts, or,, if not practicable, until suitable mitigation, developed in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game, is implemented. Loggerhead Shrike 58. Since the loggerhead shrike is a mobile species and can change its nesting location from year to year, a spring nesting survey shall be conducted the year construction is proposed to determine exact nesting locations. If loggerhead shrikes are identified nesting on the project site, a 100 foot fenced buffer shall be established around each nest tree to protect these birds. Since the loggerhead shrike is not readily susceptible to disturbance, a 100 foot buffer area is acceptable. A biological monitor shall be present when earthmoving activity is scheduled in that portion of the project site to make sure that no work occurs within the fenced buffer area. After the young fledge, typically by July I" in the project region, grading could take place within the buffer area.(MM IVab,c and d) 59. At least ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that the loggerhead shrike nesting season surveys have been conducted on the project site (the year construction is proposed) and, if loggerhead shrikes are identified, a 100 foot fenced buffer area shall be established around the nest tree.

BACKGROUND The approximately sixty acres is rectangular in shape and located on the south side of Point of Timber Road in the Contra Costa County (exhibit 1, following page). In 1994 the Board of Supervisors approved the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment (DBWGPA). In general, the DBWGPA amended the general plan for approximately 1,089 acres of land located northwest of the existing community of Discovery Bay and north of State Route 4, that was designated Agricultural band (exhibit 2, following pages). The 1,089 acres of Agricultural Land was changed to the following designations: Single Family Residential, Parks and Recreation, Delta Recreation and Resources, Public and Semi-Public and Open Space Approximately 15% of the land remained Agricultural Lands (exhibit 3, following pages). The proposed Ravenswood subdivision is 60 acres that lies within the DBWGPA area. IV.

The project, as applied for in 2002, was proposed as Delta. Lakes and consisted of a 60-acre single-family residential development with 191 lots and an 8.2-acre lake, but was withdrawn. In February of 2003 the applicant resubmitted a revised Tentative Map and Final Development Plan to subdivide sixty acresinto a 220- lot residential subdivision with a 3-acre public park and 5.2 acres of open space. After discussions with Town of Discovery Bay Community Service District regarding density issues the applicant modified the plan to lower the density range from Single Family Residential High.Density (5.0-7.2 units per net acre) to Single Family Medium Density (3.0-4.9 units per net acre). As a result what is before you now is the applicant's proposal to subdivide the 60-acre parcel into 203 single-family residences, a 3-acre public and 5.2 acres of open space (See Revised Site Plan, dated October 21, 2003 Appendix A, #9A) The building sites will be raised from existing elevations to a base flood elevation of 8.0 feet above mean sea level. Proposed housing is designed to be compatible in style and density to the developments surrounding the site to the west, south and north. V. GENERAL INFORMATION A. General Plan : Currently the General Plan designations for the site are Single Family Medium (SM) and Delta Recreation (DR). GPO 10003 is a proposal to change these designations to Single Family Medium (SM), Parks and Recreation (PR) and Open Space (OS) (exhibit 5 and 5a, following pages) B. Zoning: The site is currently zoned Heavy Agricultural District (A-3). RZ033123 is a proposal to rezone the entire site to Planned Unit District (P-1). C. Flood Zone: The site is within the 100-year floodplain (Zone A) with a Base Flood Elevation of 8.0 feet above mean sea level.

D. CEQA Status: A Mitigated Negative Declaration was posted with the State Clearinghouse on July 22, 2003 (SCH#2003072118). The comment period ended 'August 22, 2003. Comments were received and are addressed in Appendix A, #3A. Compliance with the previous EIR (DBW PA) is also included in Appendix A, #6A. E. Environs: The project site is located in the unincorporated Byron/Discovery Bay area. Bixler Road and Point of Timber Road via State Route 4 give regional access to the site. The nearest incorporated city is Brentwood, approximately 5 miles west of the site. F. Prosect Site : The topography of the site is relatively flat with an overall gentle downward gradient to the south. The site drains to Kellogg Creek, which extends from the southeastern corner of the site to the Discovery Bay Development. Vegetation on the site consists of dense and thick native grasses, weeds and bushes with scattered trees on the north. The straight artificial channel of Kellogg Creek extends from the southeastern corner of the site northeast to the Discovery Bay development. The site contains such biological resources as wetlands and species of special concern. The predominant land uses in the vicinity of the site are residential and undeveloped fields. Cr'. Existing Use of the Site: The majority of the site is a vacant field with a few residences and a number of sheds, bams and various outbuildings located on the northern portion of the site. H. Other Development Proposals in the Site Vicinity :'At this time there are no pending development proposals in the area. Property owners to the east of the site (Pantages) have expressed interest in developing their land but have, to date, not made any formal development application. The approved Discovery Bay Vest Development (Villages 1, 11, III and 1V) to the west and north are under construction. 5 _1111. .. ......... ......... ......... _1111.._. ........ . 111.1 .__ ...... ........ .......... ......... .......... ._._...... ....._..._.. ......... .................... . ..............................

Various plans offer three to five bedrooms and two and three car garages, with some plans including additional bedroom options. The applicant has proposed twenty-four different building elevations for the homes. The diversity of home types and sizes, from duets to single-family homes is designed to open home buying opportunities to a wider range of new homeowners. K. Zoning Standards: The zoning standards for the proposed subdivision are as follows: Zoning Standards for Ravenswood Uses: R-6 Single Family Residential' District Lot Area, Width, Depth: Per Ravenswood Revised Site Plan, dated 9/22,03,SD 8710. Building Height: Two and one-half stories or 35 Ft. Max. Yard Setbacks: Side Yd. = 5 Ft. Min. Street Side Yd. on Corner Lot= 10 Ft. Min. Front Yd. = 10 Ft. Min. Living Area/Porch to Property Line; 20 Ft. Min. Face of Garage to Property Line; 10 Ft. Min. to side entry garages. Rear Yd. = 15 Ft. Min. Accessory structure limitations shall be generally as in the R-6 residential district. Parking: 2 Off street parking spaces provided for each residence 9 L. Park: The project proposes a 3-acre public park that includes a children's play area with a tot lot, picnic tables, turf areas and soccer field. M. Open Space: The southerly 5.20-acre portion of the site will remain ungraded, and will include preserved and created wetlands, grassland and scrub enhanced with planting of native grasses, and a vegetated water quality basin and swale. N. Landscaping: The project proposes to have street landscaping throughout the development that includes street trees along the entrance, in front of each residence and the perimeter along the open space. O. Sound Wall and Fencing: There is a sound wall proposed along Point of Timber Road as it fronts the project. The wall continues down the entry street (`A' street) for one block along the rear of the residences. The applicant is proposing a 2 rail concrete fence along the south and southwest portions of the site that border the open space. Between each residence a wooden privacy fence is proposed. VIII. STAFF DISCUSSION A. Proposed Protect 1. Site Analysis: The site is suitable for residential development because it is within the UrbanLimit Line and was planned for development as part of the 1994 Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment area. In the 1994 DBWGPA the site was given two general plan designations: approximately two-thirds of the northern portion of the site was designated Single Family Residential -- Medium Density (SM) and the southern one-third was designated Delta Resource Recreation (DR). The DR portion of the site was thought to contain seasonal wetlands and other biological resources throughout. The applicant has subsequently conducted a Wetlands delineation that was verified by the Army Core 10 of Engineers, which indicated, that although there are small pockets on portions of the site, the greater part of the seasonal wetlands are actually a small pocket (0.83 acres) at the southern end of the site. (Seeletter from Army Corps of Engineers in appendix A, #5b). 2. General Plan Amendment Issues: a) Land Use Designations: The General Plan Amendment (GPA), which accompanies the rezoning and subdivision applications,' is a request to change the General Plan designations to more accurately reflect the biological resource value of the site and to support the proposed development plan. The northern two thirds of is now designated SM and southern one third of the site is DR. The GPA request involves a relatively miner expansion of the Single Family Residential - Medium Density (SM) designation, the re-designation of approximately 5 acres of land area with documented biological resource value to Open Space (OS), and the re-designation of approximately 3 acres of the site to Parks and Recreation (PR) for a public park that would be located within the proposed residential development. The GPA request does not substantially alter the land use designations for the site as originally established for the site in the 1994 DBWGPA, but more precisely defines how a residential neighborhood could be developed within the context of the site's biological resource value. As more fully discussed in this report, the proposed residential development substantially fits within the density, scale, and pattern of development for the site as originally envisioned under the 1994 DBWGPA. b) Text Amendment to Clarify_DiseoveryBay West Policies: Staff has reviewed and evaluated the proposed CPA against existing policies for the rl Discovery Bay area as contained in the Land Use Element. Staff believes that the GPA proposal substantially conforms to these policies, however it appears that there is the need to clarify and distinguish this project from already approved Hofmann Company project. Note that when the term Discovery Bay West Project is used in the context of the detailed policies listed under Policy 3-264, on pages 3-81 to 3-83, the policies are applied to a specific site. In referencing back to the approval of the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment, including the Report to the Planning Commission, EIR document, and Board approval, it appears that the intent was to apply very certain of these policies to a specific site, the "Discovery Bay West project". As used in this context, the site is the four-phased development for which the Hofmann Company ultimately received approval. To avoid any confusion or doubt, staff is recommending that a new sentence be inserted at the beginning of Policy 3-264 that clarifies the term "Discovery Bay West project shall mean the land area that is part of the original approval for the Hofmann Company project, now identified as Subdivision 7686 for Village I and ,Subdivision 8023 for Villages 1I, III, and IV. See Exhibit 5b on following pages for the proposed text lamendment inserting the clarifying sentence for Policy 3-264. 3. Proposed Lot Size and Density: The Ravenswood project originally proposed 220 lots with a three-acre park and five acres of open space. The lot sizes were 5500 square feet and 6500 square feet with duet lots. As such the density range was Single Family High (6.1 units per net acre). After receiving comments from the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District regarding density, the applicant reduced the number of lots from 220 to 203, increased the size of 64 lots to 7200 square feet while keeping the park and open space areas, thereby 12 . .. . .... ............................................................................................................................................................................................................... ....... ........ .......... ......... ........ ........ ........ .__ .. ...... ...... .__.. ....

Development applications on the Albers project located on the northeast comer of Bixler Road and State Route 4 will be allowed upon assurances of needed public facilities. Development applications will need to consider mechanisms for buffering the subject property from ranchettes to the north of the site. The area previously designated commercial and now shown for Multiple Family f Residential Low Density is intended to accommodate up to 97 residential units. Development applications within the general plan amendment area will be approved only upon assurances, through project conditions of approval, to the extent allowable under State law, that all needed public facilities, including school facilities, can be provided. The applicant will pay appropriate school mitigation fees based on an adequate and approved school facilities plan. The Byron Union School District will initiate the process to prepare its school facilities plan in a timely manner. 3-264. The policy for review of the Discovery Bay West project are as follows: NEW CLARIF YIN6 TEXT 44 44 As used in the context of Policy 3-264, the term "Discovery Bay West Project", shall mean the land area contained within approved Subdivision 7686, Which includes Village I, and approved Subdivision 8023, which includes Villages II, j III, and IV. Conservation and Open Space a. The Discovery Bay West project shall provide open space',as part of the land use concept to ensure compliance with the County's 65135 Land Preservation Standard. For this purpose, the project ' shall include dedication of development rights to the 200± acre Fallman Ranch in the northeast portion of the GPA area. Additionally, it shall provide a minimum of 120 acres of open forms of land use within the project, including but not limited to, lakes, park, utility easement, Fallman Canal, wetland (in southeast portion of project), pocket parks, landscaped areas, and trails. b. The development concept of the Discovery Bay West project shall provide improved functional integration between the water element, other parks and recreation facilities and the residential project. Public access to areas east should be explored. i l i EXHIBIT 5b C. The Discovery Bay West project shall provide a buffer of at least 100 feet in width, between the residential lots and the center line of Bixler Road for the portion of the site north of the East Contra Costa Irrigation District (ECCID) Canal. d. Jurisdictional wetland areas planned for open space uses shall have ' development rights for these areas dedicated to the County prior to construction of any portion of the project that is north of the ECCID Canal. Land Use e. The land use plan map for Discovery Bay West should be interpreted flexibly in terms of the location and configuration of the lakes and marina. f. A maximum of 2,000 dwelling units shall be allowed within the Discovery Bay West project area. g. A community center shall be provided as part of the Discovery Bay West project. The location of the community center shall be in the Discovery Bay West GPA area of the existing community of Discovery Bay. The Hofmann Company is to dedicate the site, preferably in the existing Discovery Bay Community, and to pay 50 percent of the building construction costs. Site selection shall be determined by the County, Discovery Bay MAC and developer of Discovery Bay West. h. The Discovery Bay West project shall be designed as a mixed density residential project which shall include both attached and detached units in differing density to serve a broader range of housing needs. Property generally east of the lakes is to be designated Single Family Residential- Medium Density. The remaining residential lands are to be designated Single Family Residential-High Density. The design shall allow for internal project amenities such as recreational areas, community focal points and the like. Senior housing projects shall be encouraged. i. Establishment of a senior housing project in the vicinity of Point of Timber Road shall be encouraged. Public Services j. The Discovery Bay West project shall consider alternative water systems for the provision of domestic water, including preparation of a formal contingency plan for use of surface waters. EXHIBIT 5h: k. The Discovery Bay West project shall include provision for a ground water monitoring program to quantify the effect of additional use of the aquifer (i.e., quality or drawdown). If the monitoring programs show that the performance standards are not being met, no new units may be added. 1. The developer of Discovery Bay West along with representative of the Byron and Knightsen Elementary School Districts shall meet to resolve issues pertaining to school district boundaries. Transportation in. Discovery Bay west shall remain in the East County Regional Area of Benefit. n. . Discovery Bay West shall pay the Eastern Contra Costa Subregional Transportation Mitigation Fee in effect at the time building permits are � issued. U. Discovery Bay West shall participate in a flexible implementation program for mitigation measures in the Environmental Impact Report. P_ After issuance of the 500th building permit for the Discovery Bay project, the Discovery Bay West developer shall fund a traffic study to determine if the trip distribution and road network assumptions in the EIR have substantially changed. If substantial changes have occurred, mitigation and possibly subsequent environmental documentation will be required. The cost of the additional traffic studies and environmental documentation will be the responsibility of the developer. Additional traffic mitigation will be subject to the requirements of a flexible monitoring program. q. The circulation and transportation concept shall provide a road connection to the Discovery Bay community in the southern portion of the GPA area. r. The Discovery Bay West project shall be reviewed to consider adequate access and internal circulation to adjacent properties within the plan amendment area. S. The Discovery Bay West project shall provide emergency vehicle access near the northwest corner of the Pantages property. t. Discovery Bay West GPA projects shall provide an efficient internal circulation system, with adequate on-street parking. u. To reduce vehicle trip generation, consideration should be given to establishing a small scale telecommuting center in the community center. Equipping residential units with telecommunication capabilities should be encouraged. H:TOLICES FOR DISCOVERY BAY AREA WITH NEW CLARIFYING TEXT.doc reducing the density to Single Family Medium (4.63 units per net acre). 4. Access and Circulation: As previously noted the primary access point to the development is from Point of Timber Road on the north with a secondary access at the end of Newberry Lane. After discussions with staff the applicant agreed to construct a third access from "K" street to Newport Drive. This would provide further integration of Village I and the proposed project (exhibit 6, following page). It would also relieve potential traffic going to Timber Point Elementary School that would otherwise be confined to using Newbury Lane and Point of Timber. There is also a stub provided to the Pantages property to the east. 5. Housing types and orientation on site: The proposed subdivision breaks up the residential development with two forms of open space; the park and the open space area. As previously noted the park is centrally located and accessible to the residences of the neighborhood via sidewalks that are planned throughout the development. The open space at the southern end of the proposed subdivision provides a buffer as well as a continuation of the open space in the adjacent Village I. To accentuate the views for both the residences and the automobile traffic traveling along S and K streets the developer is proposing single loaded streets so that the views are uninterrupted out onto Slifer Park in Village I and the open space area at the southern end of the proposed subdivision. As previously noted, the applicant is proposing to construct a variety of home sizes and architecture. The proposed architectural styles include English Traditional, Spanish Colonial and American Craftsman theme. The rooflines of the homes are broken with hips and gables to avoid monotony of design. The set back requirements for the porchlliving areas (loft. min.) of the house are relaxed to allow the residence to be closer' to the street 13 EXHIBIT 6.

This not only provides for a larger rear yard, but also encourages a garage door placement at or behind the fagade of the house, thus emphasizing the front door, not the garage door. It should be noted that the rear yards of the proposed residences that abut the rear yards of existingVillage I homes are a minimum of 20' rather than the standard 15" to address the neighbors comments that were received regarding proximity of the proposed residences. o. Design Considerations for Park: The 3-acre,public park is located in a highly visible and easily accessible location to create a community focal point. The park is bordered on four sides by public streets. Homes on three of the streets are fronting the park, which enable monitoring of the activities at the park. The park shall provide for both active and passive recreation and may include such amenities as small play fields, play area for children and places for family gatherings. The applicant is required to work with the Community Services District to arrive at a design for the park. The intent of cooperative effort is to arrive at a design that will address the local needs of the community. 7. Design Considerations for the Open Space' : The open space area at the southern end of the site was created to provide a wetland mitigation program for seasonal wetland areas (0.55 acres) on the site that would need to be filled for development. The 5.2-acre area will include preserved and created wetlands, grassland and scrub enhanced with planting of native grasses, and a vegetated water quality basin and bio swale. This area is environmentally sensitive and not for the purpose of recreation. This area does however provide' for a scenic break in the development pattern and an open space buffer. This portion of the site also serves as a bio swale for the sites storm water runoff. The drainage from the site would be collected and conveyed to a water quality basin located in the open space area. The water would then be filtered through bio swale (natural grassy area) 14 before being discharged into the Kellogg Creek. This would serve to clean the runoff of sediments before it was discharged into the bay. This is also a feature in the design of the project that is to comply with the Clean Water Act. 8. Design of Sound wally The design of the proposed masonry sound wall at the entrance of Ravenswood along Point of Timber Road and proceeding down the entrance to the development will match the existing wall of Village II that is directly across the street. This design was chosen because it is a more attractive design than the existing sound wall of Village I that is adjacent to east, and to construct a third design would be creating an incompatible pattern of development. Additionally, the proposed masonry sound wall at the entrance of Ravenswood will have substantial landscaping in front of it, which in several years will grow to obstruct much of the wall. There are entry monuments proposed that will be allowed to be in excess of 6 feet. 9. Biological Resources: The following biological resources are found on the site and have been addressed in detail within the attached Mitigated Negative Declaration. • Wetlands: There are a total of 1.46 acres of seasonal wetlands on the 60 acre site (exhibit 7, following page). The applicant shall obtain a U.S.ArmyCorps of Engineers permit, and a Certificate of Water'Quality for the Regional Water Quality Control Board to comply with established regulations. Mitigation shall be in accordance with the requirements of the two agencies. (Mitigation Measure 1Vc) • Vernal pool fairy shrimp: Fairy shrimp were found in two of the seasonal pools on site during the wet season. The applicant is required to process an "incidental take" (Section 7) permit with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Mitigation Measure IVb,d) 15 EXHIBI— 7. ro � ��...:._- .�. •---=---�----' SEAS{)h,sL �'VE,TLANDS ON THE SITE t Toil f f C r� I t f ■ �j4 �1 L it , f n/Al�t I b �.'

Public Faclities: At the writing of this staff report the applicant is working with the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District to obtain will serve letters for water and sanitation. B. Compliance with General Plan and Zoning Requirements 1. General Plan Amendment: The proposed development is in compliance with the proposed General Plan Amendment (GPO 10003) of Single Family Medium(SM), Parks and Recreation (PR) and Open Space (OS).. 2. Growth Management Consideration: The public entities that serve the subject site are: Water Town of Discovery Bay Community ServiceDistrict (subject to annexation) Sewer Town of Discovery Bay Community Service'District (subject to annexation) Police Contra Costa County Sheriff Department Local Parks Regional Recreation East Bay Regional Park District Fire East Contra Costa Fire Protection District Schools Byron Union School District, Liberty Union High' School District The subject site is within the Sphere of Influence of the Town of Discovery Bay Community Service District for both water service and sewer service and will require 16 annexation for these services. The subject site is within all other necessary public service districts that have an obligation to provide service to the site. The proposed development of the site would increase the local population thereby placing demand on public services; however, the CEQA review and agency comments indicates that there is either sufficient capacity or supply within these public service districts to meet the additional demand created by this proposed development. Provided the subject site is annexed to the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District, the proposed change in land use designations under the General Plan Amendment and Rezoning would not result in a violation of the growth management standards contained in the Contra County General Plan (1995-20 10). 3. Regional Traffic Considerations: The subject site was previously included in a traffic study that was prepared as part of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the DBWGPA. That traffic study assumed 2,135 new units in the DBWGPA study area, including 182 units on the subject. Since the DBWGPA EIR was prepared, the level of development on the Hofmann properties within the study area is somewhat lower than originally identified and the countywide growth forecast for housing and jobs as project by ABAG is also lower than', originally identified. The CEQA review for the proposed development has determined that the traffic conditions previously identified in DBWGPA are not expected to be reached by 2010. An updated traffic study was prepared in 2003 by TJKM for the applicant. This traffic study, which was reviewed and verified by the Transportation Planning Division, Community Development, concluded that project traffic (Discovery Bay West, including Hofmann properties and subject site) would be less than significant with the mitigations now being implemented now being implemented by through the phased development of the Hofmann properties. It is also noted that the proposed development would still be required to provide on-site and off-site roadway improvements and 17 ............ ......''I.''..''...................................................................... ..................................................................... to pay both Area of Benefit fees for the Discovery Bay area and the East County Subregional Transportation Mitigation Fee. These traffic impact fees paid by the proposed development would contribute funding for regional transportation improvements that will benefit the Discovery Bay community. 4. Compliance with 1994 EIR for Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment: Attached in appendix A. 5. Zoning Compliance: The site is currently zoned Heavy Agricultural District (A-3). The applicant is a requesting to rezone the property (RZ033123) to Planned Unit District (P-1) with R-6 standards. If the rezoning is approved the project will be in compliance with the zoning.

AESTHETICS Would the proposal: a. Have a substantial adverse effect on scenic vista? (Source#1, 2, 3 and 4) x b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to,trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? (Source#1, 2, 3 and x 4) c. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings? (Source#1,2, 3 and 4) x d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? (Source#1, 2, x 3 and 4) Impact la, lb and Ic: Less Than Significant. The Applicants are proposing to subdivide the parcel into 220 single family residences, a 3 acre parcel, and 5.2 acres of open space on the site. The building sites will be raised from existing elevations to a base flood elevation of 8.0 feet above mean sea level(AMSC). Proposed housing is designed to be compatible in style and density to the developments surrounding the site to the west,south and east. Impact iii: Less Than.Significant With Mitigation.The project will introduce more light and glare in the area which may change the existing characteristic of the area. Lighting of the facility, especially night lights for parking and safety,may affect nighttime views. Additionally,the project will need to assume long term maintenance of lighting and landscaping. This impact would be less than significant if the following mitigation measure is incorporated into the project. Mitigation Measure Id. The Applicant shall prepare an open space, parks, lighting and landscaping plan. The open space and parks plan shall identify maintenance measures. The lighting and landscaping plan shall reduce lighting impacts. Exterior lighting shall be low mounted, downward casting and shielded, utilize motion detection systems where applicable and not"wash out"onto adjacent properties. Generally, fixtures shall accept sodium vapor lamps and not be located at the periphery of the property. They shall not be flood lights. The lighting shall be installed in accordance with the approved lighting plan during construction. To implement the plan, the project shall: (a) annex to the discovery Bay West Landscape and Maintenance District, or (b) create a special district for long term maintenance of lighting, parks and open space,or (c) develop a Homeowners Association (HOA)to cover long term costs of lighting, landscaping of open space and parks, or (d) enter Into a Memorandum of Understanding with Hofmann to maintain light and landscaping (including open space and parks), or (e) enter into an agreement with the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District to maintain parks, open space,lighting and landscaping. Responsibility and Monitoring: Prior to issuance of the building permit, an open space, parks and exterior lighting plan with long term maintenance options shall be submitted to the Community Development Department for review and approval. Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Incorporated impact No Impact II. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agricultural and farmland. Would the project: a. Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resource Agency,to non- agricultural use? (Source 41, 2, 3, 4, 15 and 16) x i b. Conflict with existing zoning for Agricultural use or a Williamson Act contract(Source#1, 2, 3,4, x 15 and 16) c. Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, non-agricultural use? (Source#1, 2, 3, 4, 15 and 16) x Impact Iiia, tib and 11c: Less Than Significant.The Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment (DBWGPA) EIR addresses issues related to uses of agricultural land on pages 4.7 -6 through 4.7- 7. According to the Contra Costa General Plan 1990-2005,the land having prime agricultural soils and the greatest potential for agricultural productivity in the County is for the most part designated as Agricultural Core. Although designated as Agricultural Lands, none of project site is comprised of lands designated as Agricultural Core. Several factors affect the importance of the conversion of acreage of Agricultural Lands to non- agricultural designations under the proposed project. First,the project area lies inside an Urban Limit Line, indicating the possibility that urban development might occur, as distinct from land in the county lying outside an Urban Limit Line,where development of urban uses is prohibited by the County General Plan and the County Land Preservation Ordinance (Contra Costa County 1991, pp. 8-41 and 1-34). Second, on page 4.3-6 of the DBWGPA EIR,discussion of the agricultural potential of local soils, otherwise appropriate for agricultural use, contain compounds (boron and/or salt)that reduce their suitability for agriculture and limit the productivity of the land. A third consideration is that increased development in the area, not only in the immediate vicinity of the project area but also eastward into San Joaquin County, has resulted in a more suburban character with the eastern portion of the County and beyond, resulting in a mixed use area. For all of these reasons,the impact of the loss of land designated as Agricultural Lands is less than significant. A related concern to the loss of agricultural land is the potential impairment of prime agricultural land due to adjacent non-agricultural uses. The adjacent agricultural lands (designated A-2)to the east(Pantages property) are uncultivated. The DBWGPA EIR requires a 100' setback for agricultural core properties. The adjacent properties(to the east) are no longer within the agricultural core and have been redesigned Delta Recreation and Resources. The properties to the east are infill properties, it can be assumed that Page 2 of 30 some level of residential development will occur on this site. Therefore, its agricultural potential (and the associated need for a setback)is non-existent. Potentially Significant Potentially Union leas Than Significant Mitigation signulcant Impact incorporated impact No Impact Ill. AIR QUALITY ..Where available, the significant criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district maybe relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project. a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? (Source#1, 2,3,4 and 15) x b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute to an existing or projected air quality violation? (Source#1,2,3,4 and 15) x c. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? (Source #1, 2, 3, 4 and 15) x d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? (Source#1, 2, 3, 4 and 15) x e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? (Source#1, 2, 3,4 and 15) x Impact Ilia,Illb. IIIc, IIId: Less than Significant with Mitigation. The DBWGPA EIR identified the impacts to air quality as significant and unavoidable and made a finding that a statement of overriding consideration was appropriate. Given that the overall Discovery Bay project has therefore developed at a number less than which was approved in 1995 by the Board of Supervisors,and that the population projections are lower than those utilized in the 1992 DBWGPA EIR, this project has been determined to have an impact(after mitigation)that is equal to or less than what was identified in the DBWGPA EIR (also see discussion for Item IX, Land Use and Planning,below). Mitigation Measure Ilia, Illb, Ills and Illd. Air pollutant emissions from build-out of the Discovery Bay project were determined to be regionally significant but could be reduced through a reduction in on-road vehicle activity(i.e.,automobiles)and on-site emissions (i.e., maintenance equipment). Reducing emissions from vehicle use for this project would be difficult. However, providing provisions for alternative forms of transportation could have some effect in reducing emissions from the project and adjacent land uses. These project impacts can be reduced to lass than significant through implementation of the following measures: 1. Provide information for ridesharing and transit information to all residences. 2. Provide project-specific pedestrian paths and bicycle lanes. Page 3 of 30 3. New fireplaces shall be natural gas-fired or meet the County Ordinance. 4. Outdoor electrical outlets shall be installed at the front and rear of all new residences to encourage the use of electric landscape maintenance equipment. 5. Natural gas outlets should be provided in residential backyards to encourage the use of natural gas-fired barbecues. 6. Where appropriate, use solar water heaters. 7. Emissions from construction activities can be greatly reduced by implementing dust control measures. The significance of construction impacts to air quality is typically determined based on the control measures that will be implemented via the required Stormwater Pollution Prevention Pian (SWPPP). Implementation of the SWPPP measures below would reduce the dust impacts associated with grading and new construction to a less than significant level, The project shall: a. Water all active construction areas at least twice daily and more often during windy periods. Active areas adjacent to residences shall be kept damp at all times. b. Cover all hauling trucks or maintain at least two feet of freebroad. Dust-proof chutes shall be used as appropriate to load debris onto trucks during demolition. c. Pave, apply water daily, or as appropriate, or apply(non-toxic)soil stabilizers on all unpaved access roads, parking areas, and staging areas at construction sites. d. Sweep daily (with water sweepers)all paved access roads, parking areas, and staging areas and sweep streets daily(with water sweepers) if visible soil material is deposited onto the adjacent roads. e. Hydroseed or apply(non-toxic) soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas (previously graded areas that are inactive for 10 days or more). f. Enclose, cover,water twice daily, or apply(non-toxic) soil binders to exposed stockpiles. g. Limit traffic speeds on any unpaved roads to 15 mph. h. Install sandbags or other erosion control measures to prevent silt runoff to public roadways. I. Replant vegetation in disturbed areas as quickly as possible. j. Install wheel washers for all existing trucks, or wash off the tires or tracks of all trucks and equipment leaving the site. k. Suspend excavation and grading activity when winds exceed 25 mph. 1. Properly maintain construction equipment and avoid unnecessary idling near residences. m. Designate a disturbance coordinator that would respond to complaints regarding construction-related air quality issues. The phone number for this disturbance coordinator shall be clearly posted at the construction sites. n. At least once per month,the County shall ensure that construction mitigation measures are in place, per a report provided by the contractor. Responsibility and Monitoring: The County Development Department shall review and approve the development plans for inclusion of the measures prior to approval of a grading permit. The County shall review the monthly construction report. Page 4 of 30 Impact llle: Less Than Significant. The proposed residential uses are not anticipated to generate odors or be exposed to substantial odors from neighboring sources. This would be a less than significant impact.

(Source#1, 2, 3, 4 and ! i x Impact IVa,lVb, IVc and IVd: Less Than Significant with Mitigation.' Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp. The vernal pool fairy shrimp is a federal listed species that has been identified on the project site. The applicant, in a meeting with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, agreed to participate in a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service vernal pool fairy shrimp mitigation bank that would provide for off-site compensation for vernal pool fairy shrimp impacts. The agreed upon mitigation ratio for the project impacts to fairy shrimp is 3:1 (that is, for every acre of vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat that is impacted, three acres of offsite habitat would be preserved in perpetuity). The exact terms and conditions of this mitigation would be worked out between the Applicant and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service during Section 7 consultation. Mitigation Measures lVb and lVd. The applicant shall provide documentation that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has been contacted regarding the vernal pool fairy shrimp and is processing an"incidental take" (Section 7)permit. Responsibility and Monitoring: Ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit,the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that consultation with USFW S has been completed, (2)appropriate mitigation has been negotiated, (3)and a bond has been posted, or payment has been made,to an appropriate, USFWS approved, mitigation bank. San Joaquin Flit Fox (Vulpes macrotis mutica).The San Joaquin kit fox is state listed as threatened and federally listed as endangered. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has raised concerns that the project as proposed may impact this listed species. The San Joaquin kit fox was addressed in the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment Draft EIR(August 9994)as occurring within the General Plan Amendment Area(in which the project site lies), and requires mitigation for any impacts to this species or its habitat. Mitigation Measure IVa, lVb, 1Vc and iVd. The Applicant shall consult with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish and Game prior to implementation of the proposed project. During consultation with these two agencies,the extent of impact and the amount of mitigation required to appropriately mitigate for kit fox impacts will be determined. Responsibility and Monitoring: Ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that it has received written confirmation from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish and Game that the San Joaquin kit fox issue has been resolved to the satisfaction of these two agencies. iMonk&Associates LLC (M&A)has reviewed Zentner and Zentner's November 7, 2002 memorandum regarding biological issues on the Delta Lakes project site;their recommendations are included as mitigation measures. Page 6 of 30 Nesting Raptors and Passerine (Perching) Birds. Raptors, passerine birds, their nests,and eggs are protected under California Fish and Game Code(§3503, 3503.5, 3800). Additionally, all raptors are protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Mitigation Measure Wa, IVb, IVc and lVd. During the Swainson's hawk, burrowing owl, and loggerhead shrike nesting surveys, a valid attempt should be made to locate other nesting raptors and passerine birds on the project site. If nesting raptors are identified on the project site,a California, Native Species form shall be filled out and submitted to California Department of Fish and Game's Natural Diversity Database. A minimum 250 foot fenced buffer area should also be established around any nest site. This fenced buffer should be maintained by a qualified raptor biologist determines that the young have fledged and are flying well enough to avoid project construction zones (typically late August). If non-special-status passerine bird species are identified nesting on the project site,the nest tree cannot be removed until the young have fledged (typically,July). Responsibility and Monitoring: As a condition of project approval, ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that nesting surveys have been completed to the satisfaction of the California Department of Fish and Game and US Fish and'Wildlife Services. Swainson's Hawk(Buteo swainsonli).The Swainson's hawk is a state listed threatened species. It is also protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the California Fish and Game Code. Swainson's hawks are known to nest in the vicinity of the Ravenswood project site, and the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment Draft EIR requires mitigation for impacts to this species'foraging habitat, Suitable Swainson's hawk nest trees occur on the project site. Mitigation Measure iVa, IVb, We and lVd. A qualified raptor biologist shall conduct a Swainson's hawk nesting season survey on the project site and within a quarter mile of the project site; California Department of Fish and Game shall also be contacted to determine the closest known Swainson's hawk nest site to the project site. (Since Fish and Game does not frequently update their Swainson's hawk records in the Natural Diversity Database,a search of Fish and Game's data base is not suitable; a Fish and Game biologist must be contacted for this information); After the nesting season survey is conducted and California Department offish and Game are contacted for nesting records, the applicant's biologist shall determine the value of the project site's foraging habitat and identify the required mitigation in accordance with the procedures identified in the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment Draft EIR, Any Swainson's hawk nesting on the project site shall be avoided during the project grading and construction by establishing a fenced buffer zone of 0.5 mile around the nest site between the dates of March i through September 15. (This 0.5 mile buffer zone was established by California Department of Fish and Game in their Staff Report Regarding Mitigation for Impacts to Swainson's Hawks in the Central Valley of California). No earth-moving or other disturbance can occur within this 0.5 mile buffer zone. A biological monitor shall be present when earth-moving activity is scheduled on the project site to make sure that no work occurs within the fenced buffer area. If after the nesting cycle is completed a Swainson's hawk nest tree on the project site must be removed due to project construction,prior authorization from California Fish and Carne is required in order to remove the nest tree. Page 7 of 30 Responsibility and Monitoring: Ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that 1)a mitigation plan (suitable to the California Department of Fish and Game)and 2)acquired suitable offsite mitigation property to offset impacts to Swainson's hawk foraging habitat(and nesting habitat, if present on the: project site). This mitigation measure would reduce impacts to Swainson's hawks to a level considered less than significant pursuant to CEQA. Burrowing Owl (Anthene cunicularia).The burrowing owl is a state species of special concern. It is also protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the California Fish and Game Code. The burrowing owl has been identified on the adjacent Discovery Bay West Project site. Mitigation Measures lVa, IVb, IVc and iVd. Nesting season surveys (March through August) conducted in accordance with California Department of Fish and Game's survey protocol. A qualified raptor biologist shall conduct these surveys. If burrowing owls were not identified on the project site during the four season's nesting surveys, preconstruction surveys (conducted within 30 days of earthmoving activity)shall still be required. If nesting owls were identified on the project site, a fenced 300-foot buffer would be required between the nest site(s) (that is, the active burrowjsj) and any earthmoving activity or other disturbance. This 300-foot buffer could be removed once it is determined by a qualified raptor biologist that the young have fledged(that is, left the nest). Typically,the young fledge by August 31, or later,and would have to be determined by a qualified raptor biologist. If burrowing owls on the project site must be relocated to allow for construction,they must be allowed to complete their nesting cycle before they are disturbed. Then, relocation can only occur in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game. Non-nesting owls should also be relocated in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game. If burrowing owls are identified on the project site, mitigation of 6.5 acres for each pair or single unpaired owl must be acquired. For example, if one pair of owls and one single unpaired owl were identified on the project site, 13 acres of mitigation property would be necessary. If two pairs of owls were identified, 13 acres of mitigation property would be necessary. The mitigation lands shall be adjacent to known occupied burrowing owl habitat and at a location acceptable to California Department of Fish and Game. Land identified to off-set impacts to burrowing owls must be protected in perpetuity either by a conservation easement or via fee title acquisition. A Mitigation Plan and Mitigation Agreement must be prepared and submitted to California Department of Fish and Game for their approval. The Mitigation Plan (Plan)would need to identify the mitigation site and any activities necessary to enhance the site, including the construction of artificial burrows. The Plan shall also include a description of monitoring and management methods proposed at the mitigation site. Monitoring and management of any lands identified for mitigation purposes would be the responsibility of the applicant for at least five years. An annual report must be prepared for submittal to CDFG by December 31 of each monitoring year. Contingency measures for any anticipated problems shall be identified in the pian. Responsibility and Monitoring: If burrowing owls are identified on the project site, Contra Costa County shall receive copies of the Plan and Mitigation Agreement by and between the applicant and CDFG five days prior to issuing a grading permit for the proposed project. Bats.Three special-status bat species: Pacific western big-eared bat(Corynorhinus townsendii townsedii), small-footed myotis bat(Myotis ciliolabrum), and Yuma myotis bat(Myotis yumanensis) have potential to occur in the buildings on the project site. Page 8 of 30 Mitigation Measures lVa, lVb, lVc and IVd: In order to determine the presence or absence of these bat species, a qualified bat biologist shall conduct a survey of all structures on the project site. if special-status bats are found, the project shall avoid the roosting/maternity areas, if practicable, and a suitable buffer area shall be established around these areas. California Department of Fish and Game shall be contacted to determine an acceptable buffer distance. If special-status bats are found and avoidance of the roosting/maternity areas is not practicable, appropriate eviction methods would be necessary, and mitigation as prescribed by California Department of Fish and Game would also be required. Mitigation would likely include establishing roosting and/or maternity hibernacula on preserved portions of the project site, and establishing a monitoring program. Responsibility and Monitoring: if special-status bats are identified on the project site,the County shall not issue a grading permit affecting bat species until either an appropriate buffer is established around the existing bat roosts, or, if not practicable, until suitable mitigation, developed in consultation with California Department of Fish and Game, is implemented. Loggerhead Shrike (Lanius ludoviclanus). The loggerhead shrike is a state species of special concern and a federal species of concern. This bird, its nest, and eggs are also protected under California Fish and Game Code(§3503, 3503.5). During a June 20, 2001 survey of the project site,Zentner and Zentner biologists identified nesting loggerhead shrikes. Mitigation Measure lVa, lVb, lVc and lVd. Since the loggerhead shrike is a mobile species and can change its nesting location from year to year, a spring nesting surrey shall be conducted the year construction is proposed to determine exact nesting locations. If loggerhead shrikes are identified nesting on the project site, a 100 foot fenced buffer shall be established around each nest tree to protect these birds. Since the loggerhead shrike is readily susceptible to disturbance,a 100 foot buffer area is acceptable. A biological monitor shall be present when earthmoving activity is scheduled in that portion of the project site to make sure that no work occurs within the fenced buffer area. After the young fledge, typically by July 1St in the project region,grading could take place within the buffer area. Responsibility and Monitoring:Ten days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the Applicant shall provide written documentation to the County that the loggerhead shrike nesting season surveys have been conducted on the project site (the year construction is proposed) and,if loggerhead shrikes are identified, a 100 foot fenced buffer area shall be established around the nest tree. Once the nesting cycle is complete (typically by July),the fenced buffer can be removed. Impact lVc: Less Than Significant With Mitigation. Waters of the United States and Waters of the State. Zentner and Zentner completed a wetiand delineation of the site. The U.S.Army Corps of Engineers confirmed this wetland delineation(the project site total 1.46 acre). The Regional Water Quality Control Board would also likely regulate these acres as"waters of the State." The project proposes to fill 0.55 acres of wetland. The wetland mitigation program proposes to establish a 5.20 acre conservation area to include:0.89 acres of preserved wetland; 1.28 acres of created wetland (a greater than 2:1 replacement ratio for on-site wetlands); and an 1.23 acre vegetated water quality basin and swale. The remaining 1.78 acres of uplands will be enhanced with native plantings, and serves as both a buffer and as a watershed. According to Zentner and Zentner(April 28, 2003):The project must go through the Section 7 consultation process with the USFWS,arrangements have been made to fund creation of 0.72 acres of off-site habitat for the fairy shrimp (Branchinecta lynchi), mitigation for loss of 0.24 acres of on-site habitat (a 3:1 wetland replacement ratio, in addition to the 2:1 onsite replacement, above), as part of a larger fairy shrimp program under auspices of USFWS. The following table provides the initial wetland areas, plus losses,additions, and net areas(including watershed habitats)to be preserved after mitigation.

The applicant shall obtain a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit, and a "certificate of water quality"from the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Mitigation for impacts to waters of the United States, as regulated by the U.B. Army Corps of Engineers, and for impacts to waters of the State, as regulated by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, shall be completed in accordance with the requirements of these two agencies. Components of the wetlands mitigation shall include: a detailed wetlands mitigation plan including a description of the wetlands filled and preserved, the extent and location of the wetlands to be restored, performance standards that specify no loss of acres or functional value, and a five year monitoring program (or longer if specified by the above mentioned regulatory agencies)that requires annual monitoring reports to be submitted to the County as well as to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Regional Water Quality Control Board.The annual monitoring reports shall detail the progress of the restored wetlands at meeting the performance standards. Responsibility and Monitoring: Implementation of mitigation as directed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Regional Water Quality Control Board, shall be verified by the County prior to issuance of a grading permit. Impact lVe: less Than Significant Impact.The project falls within the jurisdiction of the County Tree Protection and Preservation set forth in Chapter 816-6, and Section 816-6.20102, et seq. Section 816- 6.60102 states that"No persons shall trench, grade or fill within the dripline of any protected tree or cut down, destroy,trim by topping or remove any protected tree on private property within the county without a tree permit. . ." Twenty-two trees were surveyed on the Ravenswood project site by a certified arborist (see Tree Survey dated 2/13103). None of the surveyed trees are designated as heritage trees. The Preliminary landscape plan proposes trees along streets and within the park. Impact IVf: No Impact. The project site is not located in an area covered by a Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or similar local plan and as a result no impact to such a plan will occur.

Holman and Associates prepared a complete Historical Survey of the project site. No historic, prehistoric or cultural resources were identified onsite. Impact Vb. If subsurface resources are found during construction, the recommended DBWGPA EIR mitigation measures shall be implemented as a condition of approval. Responsibility and Monitoring: if subsurface concentrations of historic archaeological materials are encountered during any phase of construction, all land-disturbing work in the immediate vicinity of the finds shall cease until a qualified historical archaeologist identifies and evaluates the find for its significance to local or regional history and offers recommendations that provide for the protection and preservation of the significant finds.

Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death, involving: i. Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist- Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area, or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to the Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42, (Source#1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x ii. Strong seismic ground shaking? (Source #1,2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x iii. Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefactions? (Source#1, 2, 3,4, 5, and 12) x iv. Landslides (Source#1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x b. Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? (Source#1, 2, 3,4, 5, and 12) x c. Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable,or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction, or collapse? (Source #1,2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x d. Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life or property? (Source#1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x e. Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water(Source#1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 12) x Impact Vla.i: No Impact. The nearest fault considered active by the California Division of Mines & Geology is the Greenville fault, which passes approximately 14 miles southwest of the site. The blind thrust fault and fold belt is considered to be an active seismic zone but it is not considered to present a risk of surface fault rupture. Impact Vla.ii: Less Than Significant With Mitigation. According to the Safety Element in the County General Plan (p. 10-23), the site is in an area rated"highest damage susceptibility." The risk of structural damage from ground shaking is regulated by the building codes and County Grading Ordinance. The UBC requires use of seismic parameters which allow the structural engineering analysis for buildings to Page 12 of 30 be based on soil profile types (see UBC, 1997,Volume 2, Div. 5, pages 2-23). The report issued by KC Engineering Company(2001)provides the seismic parameters for this site. Compliance with building and grading regulations can be expected to keep risks within generally accepted limits. Impact Via.lii: Less Than Significant With Mitigation. According to the Safety Element of the County General Plan(p. 10-27), the site is in an area that is rated"generally moderate to low" liquefaction potential. Rigorous investigation directed to liquefaction potential are required for areas classified "generally high." In areas of"generally moderate to low"liquefaction potential, qualitative geotechnical evaluation of this hazard is typically required. In the case of the proposed project,the site is: a) underlain by weakly consolidated alluvial deposits; b)there is an active seismic zone near the site;and,borings on- site confirm the presence of expansive soils and sand layers. Engineering analysis indicates that the sands are liquefiable under conditions of strong earthquake shaking. In this case, KC',Engineering performed a quantitative analysis. The data indicates the presence of these sena layers that may be encapsulated by non-liquefiable deposits. The consequence of liquefaction were found to be risk of differential settlement. The County's peer review geologist has recommended that a condition of approval of 50038710 require additional documentation to establish the amount of settlement. Mitigation Measure Vla.€i,and Vla.i€€: Improvement, grading, and building plans shall cant'out the recommendations of the approved report. This report shall include evaluation of the potential for expansive soils, seismic settlement,and other types of seismically-induced;ground failure by recognized methods appropriate to soil conditions discovered during subsurface investigation. Responsibility and Monitoring: At least 45 days prior to issuance of a grading permit, installation of improvements or utilities, applicant shall submit an updated geology, soil, and foundation report meeting the requirements of Subdivision Ordinance Section 9404.420 for review and approval of the Planning Geologist. Impact Vla.iv.: No Impact. With regard to landslides, the site is level and hence the risk of failure is nil. Impact VI.b.: Less Than Significant Impact. According to the Soil Survey of Contra Costa County,the risk of erosion is nil. A SWPPP and Erosion Control Plan are a routine requirement of projects requiring grading permits. Impact Vic.: Fess Than Significant Impact. Our review of the existing geologic data indicates that the project is feasible. The details of the specific standards and criteria for site grading, drainage and foundation design are to be provided in the Final Geotechnical Report,which is routinely made a condition of approval. (See Item Vla.lii above.) Impact Vid.: Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated.According to the Soil Survey of Contra Costa County(page 90, Table 6),the site soils can be expected to exhibit a high to very high expansion potential. Expansive soils shrink and swell as a result of moisture changes that can cause heaving and cracking of slabs-on-grade, pavements and structures founded on shallow foundations. Mitigation Measure VId.: Building damage due to volume changes associated with expansive soils can be reduced depending on the foundations to below the zone of moisture fluctuation; l.e., by using deep footings or drilled piers or placing slabs on select, granular fill. Detailed foundation design criteria are provided by geotechnical reports. It should be recognized that expansive soils are an engineering issue, and not a land use or feasibility issue. Responsibility and Monitoring: At least 45 days prior to issuance of a grading permit, installation of improvements or utilities,applicant shall submit an updated geology,soil, and foundation report meeting the requirements of Subdivision Ordinance Section 9404.420 for review and approval of the Planning Geologist, Impact Vie: No Impact. The development will be served by public sewer. Page 13 of 30 Potentially significant Potentially Unless Less Than significant Mitigation Significant Impact Incorporated Impact No Impact VII. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS - Would the project: a. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? (Source#1, 2, 3, 4, and 13) x b. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? (Source#1, 2, 3,4,and 13) x C. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials,substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? x d. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65862.5 and, as a result,would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment?

(Source#1,2, 3, 4, and 13) x Impact Vlla Viib,Vilc, and Vild: No Impact. According to KC Engineers,who prepared a Phase I Environmental Assessment for the site,historical aerial photographs and topographic maps indicate that the subject property historically consisted of private residences, agricultural fields, and vacant undeveloped fields. Residential structures,barns, sheds, and other outbuildings have existed on the subject property since approximately 1916. Portions of the subject property have been used for agricultural purposes from approximately 1959 to 1965. Mr. Skaggs indicated that a crop dusting Page 14 of 30 business operated on the subject property in the late 1970s, and a 1982 aerial photograph indicates the presence of a dirt runway on the center portion of the subject property. It is not known what chemicals were used and stored on the property in connection with the crop dusting operation;however, since it occurred approximately 20 years ago, it is not likely that any chemical residues currently remain in the soil or groundwater beneath the subject. It is KC Engineering Company's opinion that the potential for present soil and/or groundwater contamination from the former use of this property as a crop dusting facility is low. The subject property is not listed as having sustained a reported release of hazardous materials. No large quantities of hazardous materials were observed during the site reconnaissance. The search of regulatory lists for hazardous material sites in the vicinity of the property revealed one site within the ASTM E1527-90 specified approximate minimum search distance of the subject property. Based on the fact that this site is located over a half-mile away from the subject property, it is not considered a significant environmental threat to the subject property. The information gained through this study indicates a low potential for significant contamination on the subject property. Impact Vile and Vllf: No Impact. The project is not in the vicinity of an Airport Land Use Flan, or any airports. Impacl Vtllx: No Impact. The project would not impair implementation of, or physically interfere with, an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. Impact Vtth. No Impact. The buildings will be designed to current codes. Although the subject site is located along the edge of the urban/rural interface,there are no trees or shrubs that pose a high fire hazard. The undeveloped areas to the east is in limited agricultural production which will reduce fire danger from dry grasses through discing. The County l=ire Marshal's fire safety requirements will ensure the project would reduce the exposure of people and property to fire hazards to a degree the risk of injury or damage is less than significant. potentially Significant potentially Lint"* less Than Significant Mitigation Significant impact lncorparetad ;impact No impact VIII. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY -Would the project: a. Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? (Source#1, 2,3,4 and 5) x b. Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (i.e., the production rate of pre- existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)?

The existing topography is relatively flat, draining from northwest to southeast. The highest ground elevation of approximately 5 feet above sea level is at the northwesterly corner and the lowest ground elevation of approximately 4 feet at above sea level is at the southeasterly corner. At the southeast corner of the site is an earth irrigation canal that ultimately drains easterly to Kellogg Creek. Offsite drainage of the Discovery Bay West Village €development to the west,Point of Timber Road to the north,and the Windward Bay Development to the south is collected and conveyed through an underground system out to Kellogg Creek. The Pantages property to the east generally drains easterly toward Kellogg Creek as well. The site is currently within the 100-year floodplain (Zones A and A2)with a Base Flood Elevation of 8.0 feet above mean sea level (AMSL)as shown on the current Flood insurance Rate Map. Earthwork will be imported to elevate the building pads and streets above the minimum floodplain requirements. According to the county floodplain manager,the minimum finish floor elevation is required to be 10 feet above mean Page 16 of 30 sea level. A Letter of Map Revision ('LOMR')will ultimately be processed with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to change the floodplain designation of the site. Approximately 550,000 cubic yards of dirk(average of 6'of fill)will be required to elevate the site. Assuming 18 cubic yards per truck,this would require approximately 30,560 truck trips to the site. For an assessment of traffic related impacts see discussion in Section XV. Mitigation Measures Villa,Ville,Vllld,Ville, and V€llf: Once developed,the onsite drainage will be collected and conveyed through a typical underground storm drain system to the existing earth canal. This conveyance of drainage to the nearest adequate drainage facility is intended to avoid diversion of the watershed and to comply with the County Subdivision Ordinance(Title 9). The Applicants are proposing to discharge storm water runoff to the irrigation canal near the southeast corner of the property. Rights of entry from the canal owner, as well as a hydraulic analysis verifying the adequacy of this facility to convey storm water runoff in accordance with the requirements of the County Subdivision Ordinance must be submitted for review and approval. Liberal building pad slopes and drainage shall be provided by the project Civil Engineer to remove all storm water from the pad and to prevent storm andfor irrigation water from ponding adjacent to the structure foundation. All compacted finished grade shall be sloped away from the exterior foundation and directed to the lot swales or drainage area inlets. Enclosed or trapped planter areas adjacent to the structure foundation shall be avoided. Where enclosed planter areas are constructed, these areas shall be provided with adequate measures to drain surface water (irrigation and rainfall)away from the foundation. Positive surface gradients and/or controlled drainage area inlets shall be provided. Care shall be taken to adequately slope surface grades away from the structure foundation and into area inlets. Drainage area inlets shall be piped to a suitable discharge facility. Adequate measures for storm water discharge from the roof gutter downspouts shall be provided by the project Civil Engineer and maintained by the property owners at all times, such that no water is allowed to pond next to the structure. Closed pipe discharge lines shall be connected to downspouts and discharged into a suitable drainage facility. Site drainage shall be designed by the project Civil Engineer and shall encapsulate the following Best Management Practices (BMP's): a. Onsite erosion control b. Stabilization of graded areas c. Protection of open space areas d. Perimeter control e. Waste containment and general good housekeeping Erosion Control Plans will be prepared in conjunction with the Storm Water Pollution and Prevention Plan during the detailed design of the project. A Notice of Intent will also be submitted to the State Water Regional Control Board. During construction, the contractor shall be responsible for the installation and regular maintenance of the Best Management Practices. After construction, maintenance of the post- construction Best Management Practices will lie with the County for public streets. Typical Best Management Practices that shall be used during construction: a. Install temporary ground cover such as hydroseed,mulch, or straw. b. Install porous barriers such as slit fences and straw wattles. c. Grade temporary ditches to intercept runoff from entering the wetland areas. d. Construct velocity reducing measures such as check dams. Page 17 of 30 .............. ......I........ ...... .............- e. Construct stabilized construction entrances. f. Install storm drain inlet protection. g. Grade temporary sediment basins as necessary. h. Install and maintain proper waste containment facilities. I. Install and maintain proper material storage facilities, j. Utilize dust control measures. k, Periodically inspect, repair, maintain, and adjust erosion control measures as necessary depending on actual site and weather conditions. Typical post-construction Best Management Practices that will be used: a. Install landscaping after final grades have been established. b. Label storm drain inlets with "No Dumping" signs. c. Minimize directly-connected impervious surfaces as practical, d. Utilize a water quality discharge blo-swale and engineered settlement basin, e, Utilize grass swales in landscaped areas where possible. f. Install gravel basins on individual lots. After construction, homeowners and the County Public Works Department will maintain infrastructure designed and constructed to keep water quality high in the future. Gravel basins on individual lots will be provided to handle lot area run-off. Instruction manuals accompanying home purchase will delineate proper maintenance of such facilities. Additionally,common area and street run-off would be transferred to a vegetated bio-swale and a small engineered settlement basin. The bio-swale and settlement pond would compliment the edge of the proposed open space. This infrastructure and design will clean water prior to eventual transmittal to the existing irrigation canal at the southeastern corner of the site. Irrigation shall not be any more than the amount necessary to support growth of the plants. Foliage requiring little irrigation (drip system) is recommended for the areas Immediately adjacent to the structure. Landscape mounds or concrete flatwork shall not be constructed to block or obstruct the surface drainage paths. A landscape architect or other landscaper shall be made aware of these landscaping recommendations and shall implement them as designed. The surface drainage facilities shall be constructed by the contractor as designed by the civil engineer. Responsibility and Monitoring: Prior to approval of the grading and drainage plans,the Community Development Department shall ensure that the appropriate agencies (CCCFD and WCD, Reclamation District 800, DPW, US Army Corps of Engineers, and RWQCB)have reviewed and approved the plans. Impact Villb: No Impact. The project will utilize public water supplies and therefore will not deplete groundwater supplies.

The Ravenswood project was part of the development generally envisioned by the County in DBWGPA EIR in 1994 (County File#4-93-EC, SCH #93033031). The DBWGPA set up future land uses for the larger 1,089 acre project area. The project is located within the Urban Limit Eine, and is currently designated as Single-Family Residential-Medium (3.0 to 4.9 units per net acre)and Delta Recreation and Resources. The proposal is to amend the General Plan for the property to Single Family High (SH)and Open Space(OS). The intent of the split was to maintain the wetlands in the southern portion of the site, although the exact location of these wetlands was not specifically determined within the DBWGPA, EIR or Final EIR in 1994. Subsequently, Zentner&Zentner has delineated the actual wetlands on the site totaling 1.4 acres.The Zentner&Zentner report was peer reviewed by Monk&Associates. Their recommendations are included as mitigations in this Initial Study(See IV, Biological Resources). The project will require: a. A General Plan Amendment b. Rezoning c. Annexation to Discovery gay Parking Lot District(CSA L-100); LL2 Landscape Zone (zone 61) d. County Demolition permit;Grading permit, Hauling permit, Building and Occupancy permits e. Numerous other consultations and approvals from other Federal and State Agencies will be required including: • Section 7 from USFWS • consultation with the Army Corps of Engineers • the California Department of Fish and Game • a certification of water quality from the Regional Water Quality Control Board Page 19 of 30 The General Plan density for the Ravenswood project is calculated according to the following method: The net acreage is 35.8 acres (60 acres minus the open space,the park and the road right-of-ways), the 220 units yields a density of 6.2 units per net acre. This density is in the middle of Single Family Residential- High (5.0 to 7.2 units per net acre range)and is consistent with existing land use designations to the west; is generally consistent with the SM designation to the north; and is generally consistent with the properties to the east(that are proposing residential development). The proposed Planned Unit (P-1)zoning for the Ravenswood project is comparable to land uses allowable in the R-6 zone of the Contra Costa Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 84-4).The following indicates zoning and set back standards associated with the proposed Ravenswood P-1 zoning: Zoning Standards for Ravenswood Uses: Per County Ordinance Chapter 84-4: R-6 Single Family Residential District Lot Area, Width, Depth: Per Subdivision Map 8710 Building Height: Two and one-half stories or 35 Ft. Max. Yard Setbacks: Side Yard =5 ft. Min. Duet Side Yard: None for common walls Street Side Yard on Corner Lot= 10 Ft. Min. Front Yard = 10 Ft,Min Living Area/Porch to Property Line; 20 Ft. Min. Minimum Face of Garage to Property Line Rear Yard 15 Ft. Min. Parking: On-Street Parking RV Side Yard Parking allowed per Sheet C2 of Subdivision 8710. The total number of units proposed by the Ravenswood project is higher than what was approved on the same site within the Discovery Bay West project. However,there is a residual capacity of 182 units as the Hofmann project has not developed to its maximum allowable development of 2,135 units. The following analysis was provided by the Transportation Planning Division of the Contra Costa County Development Department: 1992 Discovery Bay Traffic Study 2,135 units Hofmann Entitlements -1,953 units "Unclaimed Units" 182 units Ravenswood (proposed) -220 units "Unstudied" Units -38 units Thirty-eight units is less than 2% of the total approved units. The 1992 DBWGPA EIR relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The DBWGPA EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,104,700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same year, based on ABAG's Projections'94. However, in Projections 2002,ABAG forecasts a population of 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about 2-3 percent less than previously forecast. Page 20 of 30 As the Proposed Project will be rezoned,and as the additional 38 units and their associated population is within the total number(and total population)previously analyzed in the DEWGPA EIR, no significant impacts are associated with the 38 units(see also Section XV, Transportation/Traffic, below).

The 223 units generate a population of less than 1,000 people. This project is located a half-mile south of the East Contra Costa Irrigation District(ECCID)main canal, the potential location of EBRPD's Delta Access route. This project was included in the DBWGPA and EIR, and its effect on recreation was found less than significant with mitigation. Mitigation included providing park and recreation facilities on site. The project exceeds for the County required four aces of neighborhood park per 1,000 population (as noted in the DBWGPA EIR, pages 4.9-5). As the project will generate approximately 572 residents,they are responsible for 2.29 acres of park. The project proposes three acres of park and five acres of open space. The delineated wetland in the southeast comer of the site, and this important wetlandfbiotic community is generally being avoided. The Ravenswood Project proposes to integrate with the approved Discovery Bay West development to the west. The open ended street design will: (1)allow pedestrian movement between the Ravenswood and the other Discovery Bay developments,and (2)protect views of the wetland area.

This project's traffic was evaluated in the 1994 DBWGPA EIR, and with the listed regional mitigation,was found less than significant. The specific traffic improvements identified in the DBWGPA EIR are under construction (by the Hofmann project) TJKM has evaluated the Ravenswood residential development. Excerpts from their report follow: On-Site All new street right-of-ways will be dedicated to Contra Costa County, and are generally designed according to the current Contra Costa public street standards. Street grades shall match the existing Point of Timber Road. Minimum street grades of 1% are proposed within the subdivision. The primary access point to the development is from Point of Timber Road on the north with a secondary access at the end of Newberry Lane to the west. Potential future access has also been provided via a street stub to the east bordering the Pantages property. The provision of a stop control(i.e., a stop sign, a stop bar and a STOP pavement legend) is recommended on"A" Street at its intersection with Point of Timber Road, This would require northbound traffic exiting the project site to stop prior to turning onto Point of Timber Road,thereby clearly establishing the right-of-way. Sidewalks are proposed on,both sides of all internal roadway connections, as well as on the south side of Point of Timber Road in the vicinity of the project site. Along with the above noted stop control, it is recommended to paint a crosswalk across"A" Street at Point of Timber Road in order to facilitate the movements of pedestrians. "C" Street, located at the north side of the proposed park site is shown as having a 60' ROW with 40'from curb to curb. Parking is proposed on both sides of"C"Street. Also, street segments B, G and E adjacent Page 25 of 30 to the park now include striping for adjacent park spaces and enhanced curb radius to protect parking automobiles. Typical street widths are 36'curb to curb with the exception of a small portion of"K" Street adjacent to open space Parcel E and cul-de-sacs,which are 32'curb to curb. This is too narrow to allow parking on both sides of the street. School Access The proposed street and sidewalk configuration would adequately serve pedestrian access to Timber Point Elementary School. Pedestrians traversing to and from the nearby elementary school would not have any difficulty due to the school's close proximity to the proposed development(300 feet to the west of the project's westerly boundary) and the presence of sidewalks throughout the community. The elementary school is accessible via the"I"Street connection to the existing subdivision to the west. Also, pedestrian only access is located at the end of"X Street to facilitate pedestrian traffic flow from the southerly portion of the development to the north and northwest near the school. This pedestrian access point at the end of the"J" Street cul-de-sac will deter any potential of pedestrians cutting-through trying to find easier access to the school. Construction Traffic For this project it is assumed that an average of approximately 6 feet of fill dirt will be used to level and grade the project site. It has been determined that this equates to approximately 550,000 cubic yards of dirt that will have to be hauled in and spread over the site. Trucks,typically used for this activity, carry 18 cubic yards. Therefore, it is assumed that during the construction process about 30,560 truck trips will be needed to accomplish these tasks. The hauling of fill dirt into a developing community is typical for residential projects and usually has less impact to the local circulation system than the overall project traffic for the following reasons: • Although these truck trips are large,they are spread out over a large period of time (construction typically takes approximately a year or longer). For example, even if the fill operation took as little as 4 months, the daily truck traffic in the area would consist of 360 loaded trucks and 360 empty trucks. This compares with the daily impacts of the project itself of 2,106 vehicles. • These trips are considered short-term trips. However,there is the potential for damage to roadways. Off-Site Bixier Road has Class If bike lanes. The section of Point of Timber Road between Bixler Road and Preston Drive also has Class 11 bike lanes. The provision of bike lanes on Point of Timber Road east of Preston Drive is recommended, which would require the widening of the existing two-lane pavement width. Future Ravenswood residents will be serviced by transit stops on Bixler Road, located less than one-half mile to the west. Point of Timber Road is not a through street at this time. Cumulative Conditions In 1992, a traffic study was done for the DBWGPA that included the Ravenswood property. The Amendment assumed 2,135 units at buildout of the study area. The Hofmann Company has entitlements for 1,953 units and is in the process of developing the property. The Ravenswood Project proposes 220 single family housing units, including 182 units originally designated for development in the 1992 traffic study. Thus,this project includes 38 more units than studied in the EIR, a 1.8 percent increase. The 1992 EIR and traffic study utilized the East County Traffic Forecasting Model,which relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,104,700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same year,based on Projections 1994. Now, in Projections 2002, ABAG forecasts a 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about Page 26 of 30 2.67 percent less than previously forecast. Thus, traffic conditions predicted by the original EiR are not expected to be reached or exceeded by 2€310. Intersections Contra Caste County adopted a standard LOS"D" for intersection evaluation. The northerly intersection of Byron Highway/State Route 4 is presently operating at below standard LOS"F"during the AM and PM peak hours. The existing peak hour volumes warrant the establishment of traffic signals at the intersection of Newport Drive/State Route 4, as well as at the northerly intersection.of Byron Highway/State Highway 4. Signalization of the latter intersection would also improve the operational LOS to"A"during the morning and afternoon peak hours. Operational conditions at the intersection of Bixler Road/Point of Timber Road are expected to deteriorate to unacceptable LOS"F'during the PM peak hour of the Existing +Approved Projects traffic volumes. Signalization of this intersection would improve its operational LOS to"A" during both the AM and PM peak hours. The peak hour volumes under the Existing+Approved Projects analysis scenario warrant this intersection signalization. Under the Existing +Approved Projects +Proposed Project conditions,the intersection of Byron Highway/Point of Timber Road would operate at below standard LOS"E° during the AM peak hour. To improve the operational LOS at this intersection, it is proposed to add a designated right-turn lane on the northbound intersection approach, as well as a designated left-turn lane on the westbound approach. There are also site plan improvements recommended as part of the traffic impact assessment report, in order to facilitate internal traffic circulation and clarify the right-of-way at a project access location. Mitigation Measures XVa, XVb XVd,XVf and XVg. Mitigations fall into three categories: those that are applicable to all of the Discovery Bay project, those that are applicable to the cumulative development scenario, and, those that are project specific. Project-Wide (Discovery Bay West) Mitigations:The project shall be responsible for its fair share of the following: 1. Warranted signalization of the intersection of Newport Drive/State Route 4. 2. Warranted signalization of the northerly intersection of Bryon Highway/State Route 4. Cumulative Mitigations:The project shall be responsible for its fair share of the following: 1. Signalization of the intersection of Bixler Road/Point of Timber Road. Project Mitigations: 1. Construction of a second lane on the westbound intersection approach of Bryon Highway/Point of Timber Road. This is to provide separate left-tum and right-turn lanes on the westbound approach. 2. Addition of a designated rlght-turn on the northbound approach of the Byron Highway/Point of Timber Road Intersection. 3. Establishment of a stop control and pedestrian crosswalk on the project's"A" Street at its intersection with Point of Timber Road. 4. Allocation of sufficient right-of-way to allow the widening of Point of Timber Road and the provision of bike lanes in the vicinity of the project site. Extension of the existing Point of Timber Road, right-of-way and lane configurations to the east will be required. Page 27 of 30 5. Ensuring that width of the internal roadways, as well as all comer radii at project's access and internal intersections are appropriate for serving project generated traffic including the possible movements of large emergency service vehicles (i.e., fire trucks). 6. In addition to the provision of sidewalks on both sides of the on-site roadway connections, the project will be required to construct a sidewalk on the south side of the Point of Timber Road abutting to the project site. 7. The project will be required to provide pro-rata financial contributions towards the installation of traffic signals recommended under the Existing, and Existing+Approved traffic conditions. 8. To ensure the quality of fill, to reduce the potential for damage to local roadways (i.e., not state) along the haul route to this site, and to reduce impacts to the neighborhood, the Applicant shall prepare a construction traffic management plan which shall: • Identify the source of fill; • Include a report prepared by a qualified soils engineer guaranteeing the quality of fill; • Identify the haul route; • Prepared a haul plan that describes road, and if applicable, bridge,capacity and capability (i.e., describe how the haul vehicles will be compatible and consistent with any road limitations-widths and any weight restrictions, permits required); • Provide for a complete pre-construction survey of the haul route; • Limit construction access to Point of Timber Road and Bixler Road southerly to State Route 4 (although Point of Timber Road could be considered as access to the west upon review and approved by the Public Works Department); • Detail measures that will avoid impacts on the neighborhood and schools including,but not limited to: avoidance of school related peak hour traffic, implementation of noise related measures (conditions of approval), dust control (Mitigation Measures Ilia -Illd#7); notification of residents in residential neighborhoods of the haul operations and include the name and telephone number of the construction manager avoidance of school related peak hour traffic; implementation of noise related measures (conditions of approval); implementation of dust control measures (Mitigation Measures Illa - Illd#7); • Post a cash bond equivalent to the Applicant's fair share of reconstruction costs; • Post additional security to guarantee road maintenance and repairs after material import and construction is completed; • Limit timing of deliveries of fill to non-peak traffic hours; and, • Provide for a truck driver education program. Responsibility and Monitoring: The Pian shall be reviewed and approved by the County's Zoning Administration (ZA) and the Department of Public Works Transportation Engineering Department(PW) prior to to issuance of a grading permit. If necessary,as determined by the ZA or PW, a third party peer review(with the specialist selected by the County and paid for by the Page 28 of 30 Appl€cant)of the plans or supporting information, may be required. The Plan shall be submitted forty-five days prior to issuance of a grading permit. Impact XVc: No Impact.The project is not located near any airports. Impact XV'e: No Impact.

The proposed residential projectincludes 60-acres located northwest of the existing community of Discovery Bay. The project proposes development of the site into 220 detached single family and duet units, a 3 acre public park and associated streets. The southerly 5 acre portion of the site will remain ungraded, and dedicated as open space. The current General flan Zoning is Single Family — Medium and Delta Recreational. The project proposes to designate the southerly wetlands area as open space and the remaining developed portion is proposed to be designated Single Family Residential P-1 as part of the General Plan Amendment and Rezoning process. The P-1 Zoning request will generally be in conformance with the R-6 residential zoning guidelines. The site currently consists of three privately-owned rural lots with both inhabited and abandoned structures. The site is surrounded by existing and proposed residential development. The site borders the recently constricted Discovery Bay West and Lakeshore communities to the north and west; existing Discovery Bay to the south; and the Pantages property, with residential land use designations to the east. Architecture& Site Plan The Ravenswood project includes a dynamic variety of home sizes and architecture. The architectural styles proposed by award winning architect Strauss Design Group include a number of elevations that incorporate English Traditional, Spanish Colonial, and American Craftsman themes. Table 1 below provides home descriptions summarizing floor plan amenities and square footages. Different lot sizes in the site plan provide an opportunity to diversify home plans for each of the 5,500 & 6,500 'Sq. Ft. typical lot sizes (5.5K & 6.5K.). In addition, Duet homes are strategically sited and designed at corner lot locations. The corner lots allow the architect to provide an attractive image of a monolithic structure & home design, while accomplishing individual home entries and character. Home plans 1 thru 4 located on 5.5K lots range from 2,185 to 2,845 livable square feet. Horne plans 1 thru 3 on 6.5K lots have higher square footages ranging from 2,644 to 2,999 square feet. Duet homes range in size from 1,658 for Plan 1 and 1,778 for the Plan 2 design. Various plans offer three to five bedrooms and two and three car garages, with some plans including additional bedroom options. To avoid repetitive streetscapes, the architect has designed twenty-four different building elevations for the homes in the community. This diversity of home types & sizes, from duets to single-family homes, opens home buying opportunities to a wider range of new homeowners.

Parking: 2&3 Car Garages,Private Driveways,Public Streets,and Selected Lot RV Parkin (see Matrix Sheet CZ) Streets All new street right-of-ways will be dedicated to Contra Costa County, and are generally designed according the current Contra Costa County public street standards. To match the existing street grades on Point of Timber Road as well as the rest of the publicly maintained streets of the Discovery Bay Nest development, minimum street grades of 0.75% are proposed The street layout has incorporated previous concerns from Contra Costa County Community Development on internal traffic circulation. The primary access point to the development is from Point of Timber Road on the north with a secondary access at the end of Newberry Lane to the west. Potential future access has also been provided via a street stub to the east bordering the Pantages property. Underground utilities are designed to be located within the street right-of- ways and public utility easements per current County standards. Height of structures and vegetation at intersections will be limited per County requirements. Street widths will generally accommodate on-street parking. Sanitary Sewer & 'Nater The sanitary sewer and water facilities are among the proposed improvements typical for a residential subdivision. All water and sanitary sewer facilities will be designed in accordance with the requirements of the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District. The sewer system consists of a network of gravity mains that conveys wastewater to the existing sewer pump station on Newport Drive to the west. The water system consists of a network of pipes supplied by connections at the end of Newberry Lane and Newport Drive to the west. Preliminary conversations with the Town of Discovery Bay staff indicate that there is adequate sanitary sewer treatment capacity and water supply available to serve this development. CAData\Ravenswood\Onate Project Description.doc Page 3 of 6 PROJECT DESCRIPTION February 14, 2003 RAVENSWOOD Job No.: 1122-00 Drainage The existing topography is relatively flat with the highest ground elevation of approximately 9 feet above sea level at the northwesterly comer and the Iowest ground elevation of approximately 4 feet above sea level at the southeasterly corner. Thus, the site generally drains from the northwest to the southeast. At the southeast corner of the site is an earth irrigation canal that ultimately drains easterly to Kellogg Creep. Offsite drainage of the Discovery Bay West Village I development to the west, Point of Timber Road to the north, and the Windward Bay development to the south is collected and conveyed through an underground system out to Kellogg Creek. The Pantages property to the east generally drains easterly towards Kellogg Creek as well. Once developed, the onsite drainage will be collected and conveyed through a typical underground storm drain system to the existing earth canal. This conveyance of drainage to the nearest adequate drainage facility is intended to avoid diversion of the watershed and to comply with the County Subdivision Ordinance (Title 9). Flood Zone The site is currently within the 100-yr floodplain (Zones A and A2)with a Base Flood Elevation of 8.0 feet above mean sea level as shown on the current Flood Insurance Rate Map. Earthwork will be imported to elevate the building pads and streets above the minimum floodplain requirements. According to the County Floodplain manager, the minimum finish floor elevation is required to be 10 feet above mean sea level. A Letter of Map Revision (`LOMR') will ultimately be processed with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to change the floodplain designation of the site. Construction Haul Routes Approximately 550,000 cubic yards of dirt (average of 6' of fill) will be required to elevate the site. Assuming 18 cubic yards per truck, this would require approximately 30,560 truck trips to the site. It is anticipated that construction traffic from Highway 4 to the site will be restricted to Bixler Road and Point of Timber Road. Both these roads have been recently improved as part of the Discovery Bay West development. Best Management Practice ('BMP') The Best Management Practice objectives specific to this project include the following; • Onsite erosion control • Stabilization of graded areas • Protection of open space areas CAData\Ravenswood\onate Project Description.doc Page 4 of 6 PROJECT DESCRIPTION February 14, 2003 RAVENSWOOD Job No.: 1122-00 • Perimeter control • Waste.containment and general good housekeeping Erosion Control Plans will be prepared in conjunction with the Storm Water Pollution and Prevention Plan during the detailed design of the project. A Notice of Intent will also be submitted to the State Water Regional Control Board. During construction, the contractor shall be responsible for the installation and regular maintenance of the Best Management Practices. .After construction, maintenance of the post- construction Best Management Practices will lie with the County for public streets. Typical Best Management Practices that will be used during construction: a. Install temporary ground cover such as hydroseed, mulch, or straw. b. Install porous barriers such as silt fences and straw wattles. C. Grade temporary ditches to intercept runoff from entering the wetland areas. d. Construct velocity reducing measures such as check dams. e. Construct stabilized construction entrances. f. Install storm drain inlet protection. g. Grade temporary sediment basins as necessary. h. install and maintain proper waste containment facilities. i. Install and maintain proper material storage facilities. j. Utilize dust control measures. k. Periodically inspect, repair, maintain, and adjust erosion control measures as necessary depending on actual site and weather conditions. Typical post-construction Best Management Practices that will be used: a. Install landscaping after final grades have been established. b. Label storm drain inlets with"No Dumping" signs. C. Minimize directly-connected impervious surfaces as practical. d. Utilize a water quality discharge bio-swale and engineered settlement basin. e. Utilize grass swales in landscaped areas where possible. £ Install gravel basins on individual lots. After construction, homeowners and the County Public Works Department will maintain infrastructure designed and constructed to keep water quality high in the future. Gravel basins on individual lots will be provided to handle lot area run-off. Instruction manuals accompanying home purchase will delineate proper maintenance of such facilities. Additionally, common area and street run-off would be transferred to a vegetated bio-swale and a small engineered settlement basin. The bio-swale and settlement pond would compliment the edge of the CADatalRavenswoodl0nate Project Description.doc Page 5 of 6 PROJECT DESCRIPTION February 14, 2003 RAVENSWOOD Job No.: 1122-00 proposed open space. This infrastructure and design will clean water prior to eventual transmittal to the existing irrigation canal at the southeastern corner of the site. General Pian The Ravenswood project was part of the development envisioned by the County in the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment(DBWGPA), and Final EIR in 1994 (County File#4-93-EC, SCH#93033031). The DBWGPA set up future land uses for the entire 1,089 Acre Project Area. The project is located within the Urban Limit Line, and is currently designated as Single-Family Residential- Medium (3.0 to 4.9 units per net acre) and Delta Recreation and Resources. The intent of the split was to maintain the wetlands in the southern portion of the site, although the exact location of these wetlands was not specifically determined with the DBWGPA and Final EIR in 1994. Since then, Zentner & Zentner has delineated the actual wetlands on site totaling 1.46 acres. The General Plan density to the Ravenswood project is calculated according to the following method. Assuming the net acreage is 35.8 acres (60 acres minus the open space, the park and the road right-of-ways), the 220 units yields a density of 6.2 units per net acre. This density is in the middle of Single Family Residential--High(5.0 to 7.2 units per net acre). Zoning The proposed P-1 zone for the Ravenswood project is comparable to land uses allowable in the R-6 zone of the Contra Costa zoning Ordinance (Chapter 84-4). The following Table 3 notes physical zoning standards for the proposed Ravenswood P-1 zone.

Under the"Aesthctiey"section of the environmental checklist, the number of homes or dwellings proposed for this site has a very significant impact on the existing communky in the way of safety of streets, traffic # f volurnes,and the proposed rezoning of the"Delta Recreation". 2. Under"Air Quality",the number of existing homes in the arca and across Kellogg Crack will for a couple of years have,a lot of dirt 1 dust to cleanup during the grading of this project as well as during the home #G construction period.Evert with the measures being considered and since the prevailing winds are coming from G the west, these homeowners will have to breath this dirt and wash their home witrdows and vehicles mono often than normal, causing the Town to provide more water to our existing residents. 3. Under"Hydrology gad Water Quality",the Town feels that the amount of storm water from the proposed r� project going to one discharge point for the whole project will cause a silting issue for the existing community #3 and local boaters. 4. Tito import of 550,000 cubic yards of fill by over 30,500 truckloads would create a major traffic issue for this part of the community since many of these track drivers do not adhere to the local speed limits. Some type of mitigatlon would need to be addressed for this issue,for example:a designated truck route would aced to be #4 established and since wo have a nearby elementary school,these trucks should only be operated between the hours of 9:O0a.m.to 12:04p.tn, and item 1:00 p.m.to 2:30 p.m,Monday through Friday to allow our children a safe access to school and home. 5. Under°Land Use and Planning", the Town feels that the number of dwelling units planned for these 60- acres of 220 hotmas is way too marry homes for this community and for the various public services to handle. #5 - • , r,, 6, Uudor "Population and Housing", the population projected from these 220 homes does not match the estimates that the Town perceives them to be. For example: the Town. uses a figure of 3 persons per home, which is low for this typt of community, and that comes up to 660. We feel the number would be closer to goo,since many of these families have on the average,2 children, 7, Undct"Public Services",when yeti have high density housing,like this proposed project, and the proposed streets arc to be either tilrrow or no parkin$on one side of them,you will have traffic safety issues, This has #7 recently become a major issue within the community for tho CYIP and Sh°riffs office. Many of these new homeowners will have a boot trailer that is on the average of 20-feet long and about 7-8 feet wide,that would become a safety issue as well as a parking issue for those in tho area, 8. Under "Transportation 1 Traffic", rocehtly the County was gathering support for the "Smart Growth" concept, whereby Stnart Growth wanted proposed ptojects like o essestb�lia itt the t the �amoou f highudy s dsfor #8 housing,which bas a major impact on arca traffic. The Town ais f this project,is not current with today's current trdMc congestion, 9. Under "Utilities sad Servire Systeats", in 1999 the Town of Discovery Hay hired LuhdorfF& Scaimaniui EnSbecrintg to develop a"Water Master Plan" that was used as our capacity guide for our two new water treatment facilities that the Town built in 2002 and 2003. By looking at"Exhibit A", which shows projected #9 future EDU's or number of now homcs based on the current county's"General Plan" desipa600,and zoning maps. As you can scc, the water master plan projected only 116 EDU's(Storrer do Venbaus) for these three parcels, since a 1/3 of the total site was designated as Dolt& Recreational and not the 220 homes that are proposed.The Board does not want to see or have any high density housing for this arca. 10. In April of 1998, Carollo Engineering completod a wastewater study to determine the needed capacity of s new wastewater treatment plant for t#te then approved Discovery Bay West Project and other planned projects. #1 the wasthe ewan treatment osed planet be expanded onot io ludeincluded, all of D scovery Bay West and another 322i&covery Bay -EDUask�s,ta new tnainly P for future growtb- If you have any questions on the above comments, please do not hesitate to call me at our district office at 634-1131.

Our comments during the prcapplication process addressed the fact that the District is responsible for water quality in the Bays and Lakes within Discovery Bay and how we would be dirt-00y irapacted from the quality of drainage water that is discharged from this project. Furthermore,we suggested the County obtain RD 800's approval of the Project's drainage BMP's prior to then approval and we sought their acknowledgement of the interrelationship that exists between die project's drainage system and the existing water quality system within # Discovery Bay. As a result of these comments Carlson,Barbee&Gibson,the Project's current Civil Engineer,has consulted with the District and has provided us with documents and reports setting forth Western.Pacific Housing's preliminary grading and drainage plans. Interestingly though,the initial study dots not reflect the same level of detail that the District has bcoa provided by Carlson Barbee&0ibson relative to the collection and conveyance of storm water, Provided Western Pacific Housing follows through and implements the prclimiaary designs we will be satisfied they have taken adequate measures to protect the water quality of Discovery Bay. The District has successfully maintained water quality within its bays and lakes since the 14te I964's. We remains very cautious and want to snake certain that impacts to our water quality be mitigatod. We appreciate the condition set forth in the laitial Study that requires review by the District prior to approval of the grading and drainage plans.

It appears, after all, that LAFCO will function as a CEQA responsible agency for the proposed project and will review and consider the County's Mitigated Negative Declaration before making Its awn project decisions.These "projects' typically involve jurisdictional changes (e.g., annexations to cities and special districts). The applicants are proposing to subdivide 60 acres into 222 single-family lets, a #1 three-acre park and 5.2 acres of Open Space. The proposed project is located on four contiguous parcels on Point of Timber Road in the Discovery Say area. LAFCO approval will be required to annex the project site to the Discovery Ray Service District's service area in order to obtain parks and recreation, and water j and sewer services. Annexation to County Service Area L-100 (street lighting)is also required. Affected territory igwithin the pistrict's sphere Of influence bout}daa as well as the County's Urban Limit Line. LAFCO has specific responsibility for evaluating certain impacts and environmental issues to fulfill its responsibilities under the Cortese-Knox- Hertzberg Act. Issues that should be addressed in the environmental document #2 and which are of particular importance to LAFCO can be found in Section 56668 of the Government Code, Please review that code section and address each of the factors that must be considered by the Commission when it considers the annexation(s)to the District, I LETTER C John Oberne 2 The Commission's efforts are also directed toward seeing that services will be provided efficiently and economically while agricultural and open-space lands are protected. Since the proposed project lies within the ULI-, and since the # surrounding land uses are increasingly moving toward urbanization, the conversion of prime lands will not be a major factor of Commission consideration. On the other hand, issues of concern may well be the increase in population and housing and the increase in traffic that would be generated by 220 new homes in the area. For example, the Legislature, through the Cortese�Knox-Hertzberg Act, recognizes that providing housing for persons and families of all incomes is an important factor in promoting orderly development. Therefore, only those local agencies which can best accommodate and provide necessary governmental #3 services and housing for persons and families of all Incomes in the most efficient manner will be granted preference when it comes to jurisdictional changes. Will the proposed project address the provision of affordable housing? With regard to traffic, the Initial Study indicates that the proposed project's traffic impact was evaluated in the 1994 Discovery Bay West EER and, with mitigation, the impact will be less than significant, Prior to considering a jurisdictional #4 change, the Commission may request that the Contra Costa Transportation Authority address the traffic/transportation issues further, If you have any questions regarding the Commission's responsibility and j authority as it pertains to the proposed project and its responsible agency role, please call me any time, CC" LAFC Commissioners Virgil Koehne; DBCSD Reed Onate i i -y__ ..... -..

I would like to state that I am totally against the idea of rezoning theseareas its question,and the reasons include such negative impacts to Water Quality,Biological �1Resources, Transportation/Traffic and the many other reasons that were aptly included in your initial letter. As much as I would love to trust that the developer would adhere to his "mitigation measures that would reduce the impacts to a less thann sip fiicant level'I have my doubts.This vague assurance does little to lessen my concerns.I would like to know what exactly are these"initigation measures"and ghat guarantees are in place that #2 the developer would follow through on these measures, I In just the short time I have been here I have seen things that give me cause for concern when I hear about developer's promises to make things right.What is there in plane legally to force than to follow through? HofFinan Co.had promised to widen rotate 4 if certain development plans were approved. The developments are here and where are #3 the improvements to route 4?Also I live close to Timber Point Elementary school.I was informed that the developers were also responsible for this site. You should drive by and take a look at the lawn sometime and then tell me that appropriate care was given to this property. You have asked for my opinion and you have received it. I hope to be kept informed on the progress of this study. Thank you for your time. 1 Sincerely,. Lisa Goldstein t-Lr.IU.4--UO3 b-Z�r4F-M LVI"If'10"t I OLVLLVt'MLNI .ETTER F 1.

We have examined the Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration and have the following comments to offer: Our primary concern with the project is the potentially significant impact it may have to traffic volume and congestion on State Route 4, Although a traffic study was prepared for the Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment that included the Ravenswood property in 1992, an updated traffic impact analysis needs to be prepared. The traffic analysis should evaluate impacts to the State Route 4 mainline, roadway segments,weaving area, ramps, and ramp junctions.The traffic impact analysisshould include, but not be limited to the follovying: 1, Information on the project's traffic impacts in terms of trip generation, distribution, and assignment. #1 The assumptions and methodologies used in compiling this information should be addressed. 2. Average Daily Traffic(ADT)and AM and PM peak hour volumes on all significantly affected streets and highways,including crossroads and controlling intersections. 3. Schematic illustration of the traffic conditions for. 1)existing,2)existing plus project, 3)cumulative, and 4)cumulative plus project for the intersections and roadway segments in the project area. 4. Calculation of cumulative traffic volumes should consider all traffic-generating developments, both existing and future,that would affect the State highway facilities being evaluated, S.

General Manager. Town of Discovery Bad April 15, 2003 Response to Comment#1: An analysis of the impacts on streets and traffic is found in Section XV, Traffic and Circulation, and density is discussed in Section IX, Land Use and Planning, of the Initial Study. Response to Comment#2: Mitigation Measures identified in Section III Air Quality, will reduce construction related impacts to less than significant. Response to Comment#3: Mitigation Measures identified in Section VIII, Hydrology and Water Quality, will mitigate for potential siltation. Response to Comment#4: The discussion related to importation of fill and mitigation measures is included in Section XV, Traffic and Circulation, of the Initial Study. Response to Comment#5: The comment is an opinion of the commentor and does not address a potential environmental issue; therefore no response is required. Response to Comment#6: The population generation figure of 2.60 persons/single family unit is taken from the ABAG projections. However, Table 1:E-5 County/State Population and Housing Estimates, 4/1/2000 DRU Benchmark assumes an average of 2.74 persons/household for Contra Costa County. At that rate, 203 new residents (or 72 more than the 6,234 persons that were anticipated in the Discovery Bay EIR) would be generated by this project. This increase in population over what was anticipated in the EIR will not constitute a cumulatively considerable contribution to any population-related impact (water, schools, etc.) as mitigation measures are identified (water conservation, payment of school impact fees) that will reduce all impacts to less than significant. Response to Comment#7: The project proposes zoning to single family residential medium density (R-6). The discussion at the top of page 26 of the Initial Study and Mitigation Measure #XV-5 addresses concerns related to road widths and safety. Response to Comment#8: While the Initial Study references the 1992 Traffic Study for Discovery Bay West, TJKM evaluated and updated these findings in their April 2003 study (see Source #14).

CA0078590 Mr. Vaughn: The purpose of this letter is to request an adjustment of the total flow currently permitted in our current NPDES Permit from 2.1 mgd to 2.2 mgd. Shortly after the approval of our current NPDES Permit,a development application within our current sphere of influence triggered a review of our overall build out capacity.The revised build out capacity of our current sphere of influence indicates that the current permitted value of 2.1 rngd would not be adequate and that a revised flow of 2.2 mgd would be required (sec attached Table 1). Our District Engineer has confirmed that the plant is capable of treating the 2.2 mgd flow and has certified the plant for flow of 2.2 mgd(see Appendix A). In addition,we have revised the Preliminary Diffuser Design and Effluent Zone of Initial Dilution for a flow of 2.2 mgd. The revised report is attached as Appendix B. Based on the aforementioned documents, we are requesting that the pcnnitted flow be increased from 2.1 mgd to 2.2 mgd, while maintaining,the current constituent concentrations, Please call us if you have any questions or comments or if you would like to meet to discuss this further.

Response to Letter-C Annamarie Perrella, Executive Officer, LAFCO August 18, 2003 Response to Comment#1: The Initial Study recognizes the role of LAFCO as a Responsible Agency on the first page of the Checklist Form (item #10). The Initial Study recognizes the need for the project to annex to the Town of Discovery Bay on page 1, Mitigation Measure Id. Clarification: The bottom of page 29 should be changed to read as follows: Impact XVIa XVIb. XVII. XVId and XVIe: Less than Significant Impact. While the ro" ct site is within the Districts'Qiscove Bay West arra Re lamatian District #800 Urban Limit Line the proLect will be required to annex into the District. Conversations with the Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District (CSD) indicate that sewer and water facilities can accommodate this development pending the CSD board approval. Proposed densities are compatible with existing residential areas, and the project incorporates an open space buffer between the Discovery Bay properties on Newport Lane. It should be noted that annexation is not an environmental impact and will be a condition of approval. Response to Comment#2: The provision of services is discussed in the initial Study on pp. 23-24, and 29-30. Urbanization of agricultural land is discussed on pp. 2-3. Increased population (over that approved by the Board of Supervisors for the Discovery Bay West project) is discussed on pp. 22-23 and pp. 26-27 (cumulative conditions). Response to Comment#3: The project proposes to provide affordable housing by design through the provision of duet units. Thirteen of the 203 proposed units are duets. Response to Comment#4: While the Initial Study references the 1992 Traffic Study for Discovery Bay West, TJKM evaluated and updated the findings in their April 2003 study (see Source #14). Response to Letter Q Homeowners in Subdivision 8167 Undated, received September 2. 2003 Response to Comment#1: While previous mapping indicated the presence of wetlands in the area, subsequent site surveys identified the exact location of wetlands. Located in the southwestern corner of the property, these wetlands compromise 1.46 acres. The project is proposing to set aside, protect and enhance 5.2 acres of open space for wetlands (see CAData\Ravenswoo,d\Responses to Comments r discussion of Biological Resources Impact and Mitigation IV C). Response to Comment#2: Fifteen feet is the minimum setback required under medium density zoning. Response to Comment#3: While changes to property values is not an environmental impact, the incorporation of duets into a subdivision has not been shown to decrease property values (as new developments are generally associated with higher initial sales costs). Response to Comment#4: The comment is noted. The project provides open space and park in excess of that required by County codes. Response to Comment#5: Potential traffic impacts to school children is discussed and mitigation identified in Impact XV a-b, c-g). Response to Comment#6: According to the Project Sponsors traffic engineer, TJKM, there is not a warrant for a stop sign at the intersection of Newberry/Amesbury. TJKM has provided the following explanation: Increase in traffic volumes does not automatically make a street more "hazardous". The "relative safety" of a street or intersection is typically estimated by calculating a collision rate based on three years of collision data and recent traffic counts. The project is expected to increase the amount of through traffic on Newbury Lane at Amesbury Street/Faraham Court. Two-way stop control is typically installed on the "minor street" approaches, which would be on southbound Amesbury Street and northbound Faraham Court after Newbury Lane provides is connected to the project. All-way stop control typically requires that traffic volumes be similar on the "major street" (Newbury Lane when it provides access to the project) and the minor street (Amesbury Street/Faraham Court). After Newbury Lane is used by project traffic, stop sign warrants for the Newbury Lane/Amesbury Street/Faraham Court intersection can be evaluated to determine the appropriate traffic control.

Potential Impacts to Water Quality, Biological Resources and Trans portation/Traff€c are addressed in the Initial Study in Sections Vill, IV, and XV, respectively. Response to Comment#2: Mitigation Measures and the responsibility for monitoring are identifiedby environmental factor. Additionally, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) shall be prepared for the Proposed Project and submitted to the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors for their approval. Response to Comment#3: The Commentor addresses the Hoffman project and not the adequacy of the Initial Study. See also Letter E, Response to Comment#2, above. Response to Letter F Timothy C. Sable, District Branch Chief, Department of Trans r2artation, 09/03/03 Response to Comment#1: A traffic study was prepared by TJKM in April of 2003 that addresses the concerns raised by Caltrans. Additional response is provided in their letter of September 15, 2003 (Attachment A-4). Response to Comment#2: The traffic management plan (TMP) referred to by Caltrans is included as mitigation measure XVa-b, XVd, XVf-g, Project Mitigation #8. Response to Comment#3: Mitigation Measure XVa, b, d, f& g Project Mitigation #7 requires the project to contribute its fair share to the cost of signalization. The Byron Highway/State Route 4 (SR4) intersection was conditioned for signalization prior to the issuance of any building permits for Village 3 of the Hoffman project. This intersection is currently being signalized (Chris Low, CCCDPW, 10/8/03). The Newport/SR4 is a mitigation in the Discovery Bay West EIR. The existing traffic at the intersection meets warrants for signalization (see Appendix I, of the Traffic Impact Study prepared by TJKM on 4/28/03). The Ravenswood project will add 0.4 to the AM peak hour delay and 13.3 to the PM peak hour delay (Attachment A-5). The project will be conditioned to provide signalization. CAOata\Ravenswood\Responses to Comments ATTA H M E NT A-4 Transportation Consultants MEMO September 15,2003 To: John Obome, Contra Costa County No. of Pages 4 Community Development From: Chris Kinzel Project No.: 029-159 Sent Via: Jobor@cd.co.contra-costa.ca.us Jurisdiction: Contra Costa County Subject: RESPONSE TO CALTRANS COMMENTS ON RAVENSWOOD RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT TRAFFIC STUDY This memo briefly addresses comments made by Lisa Carboni of Caltrans in a letter dated September 4, 2003. Primary Concern: Page lof the Traffic Study provides insight into why an updated traffic impact analysis for the Discovery Bay Vilest General Plan Amendment that included the Ravenswood property is unnecessary. For easy reference,the conclusions are repeated below: In 1992, a traffic study was done for the Discovery Bay Nest General Plan Amendment that included the Ravenswood property. The Amendment assumed 2,135 units at buildout of the study area, The Hoffman Company has entitlements for 1,953 units and is in the process of developing the property. The Ravenswood Project proposes 220 single family housing units,including 182 units originally designated for development in the 1992 traffic study. Thus,this project includes 38 more units than studied in the EIR,a 1.8 percent increase. The 1992 EIR and traffic study utilized the East County Traffic Forecasting Model,which relied on ABAG population and employment projections. The EIR assumed a Contra Costa County population of 1,104,700 by 2010 and 430,120 jobs in the same year,based on Projections '94. Now, in Projections 2002, ABAG forecasts a 1,074,500 in 2010 and employment of 419,140 jobs. These figures are about 2.6 percent less than previously forecast. Since the current forecasts for population and jobs are less than assumed in the original EIR's traffic study, it can be assumed that the original traffic was conservatively high. Thus,traffic conditions predicted by the original EIR are not expected to be reached or exceeded by 2010. Response 1: Pages 18 and 19 of the Traffic Study provide trip generation, distribution and assignment assumptions for the project. For easy reference,the trip generation estimates along with the trip distribution assumptions are repeated below: 5960 Inglewood Drive,Suite 100 Pleasanton,CA 94588-8535 PLEASANTON w 925.463-0611 phone 925453-3690 fax www.i km.com SANTA ROSA "We create transportation i e - s t Response to Caltrans Comments,September 15, 2003,Pg.2 Proposed Project Trip Generation The Ravenswood residential development is proposed as 220 units of single-family housing. The project is proposed to have two access roadways off of Point of Timber Road and Newbury Lane. The project site is currently a vacant lot,which is zoned for residential land use. Trip generation of the proposed Ravenswood Project was estimated using the trip generation rates provided in the 6ffi Edition of the Trip Generation Manual published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in 1997. The estimated project trip generations on a weekday(24-hour period), as well as during the morning and afternoon peak hours of a weekday are summarized in Table 4. The proposed residential development with 220 units is expected to generate approximately 2,106 daily trips,with 165 trips during the AM peak hour and 222 trips during the PM peak hour.

Traffic from the proposed project is expected to travel to and from the site according to the distribution assumptions shown on Figure 9 and described below: • Thirty-nine percent of the total project generated trips would travel to/from northwest via SR 4. These thirty-nine percent of the total generated trips were split equally among the two project access roadways. Meaning,one-half percent of these trips would use the project's access located off of Point of Timber Road with an assigned travel route on Point of Timber Road-Byron Highway-SR 4. The remaining one-half percent would use the project's access off of Newbury Lane and travel on Newbury Lane—Preston Drive—Point of Timber Road--Byron Highway—SR 4. • Fifty-eight percent of the project trips would travel to/from the south via Byron Highway. This portion of the project generated trips was divided as follows: twenty percent(of the fifty-eight percent) would use the Point of Timber Road access and travel on Point of Timber Road- Byron Highway. Forty percent would use the Newbury Lane access and travel on Newbury Lane—Preston Drive—Newport Drive—Bixler Road-March Creek Road—Byron Highway. The remaining forty percent would also use the Newbury Lane access,but travel on Newbury Lane--Preston Drive— Newport Drive—Bixler Road—SR 4—Byron Highway. • Three percent of the total project trips would travel to/from the east via SR 4. Ten percent of these trips would exit and enter the project site via Point of Timber Road and travel on Point of Timber Road—Bixler Road—SR 4. Seventy percent would exit and enter via Newbury Lane and travel on Newbury Lane—Preston Lane—Newport Drive—SR 4. The twenty percent remaining would use the Response to Caltrans Comments, September 15,2403,Pg.3 Newbury Lane access and travel on Newbury Lane—Preston Drive--Newport Drive—Bixler Road — SR 4. Assigned project generated trips (Figure 9)were added to the intersection turning movement volumes under the Existing+ Approved Projects conditions (Figure 7). This resulted in obtaining the Existing+ Approved + Project traffic volumes at the study intersections, which are illustrated on Figure 10. Reponse 2 and 3: Figures 4, 7 and 10 on pages 11, 15 and 21 of the traffic study,respectively,provide a.m. and p.m, peak hour volumes at study intersections on all significantly affected streets and highways, including crossroads and controlling intersections. Additionally, these figures schematically provide a.m. and p.m. traffic volumes for the three traffic analysis scenarios; existing,existing plus approved projects (cumulative) and existing plus approved plus project. It should be noted that, in traffic engineering and planning,peak hour analysis at study intersections are considered to be a more microanalysis and a better indicator of worse case traffic conditions. Therefore, Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volumes are not represented or analyzed in this traffic study. Response 4: Table 3 "Approved Projects Trip Generation) on page 13 of the traffic study provide traffic volumes for all traffic—engineering developments, both existing and future, that would affect that State highway facilities being evaluated(State Route 4). Additionally,Figure 6 on page 14 of the traffic study graphically shows these traffic volumes. For easy reference, the trip generations for approved projects (cumulative) estimates are repeated below: Approved Projects Trip Generation Trip keneration for the residential developments was estimated using the trip generation rates published in the 6` Edition of the Trip Generation Manual produced by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in 1997. The Sandy Cove Development trip generation is based on the traffic study report prepared for Pacific Development Group 11 by Fehr&Peers Associates, Inc. in February 2001. Table 3 summarizes the trip generation estimates for all approved projects. As shown in the table,the approved projects are expected to generate 1,846 trips during the AM peak hour, and 2,837 trips during the PM peak hour.

It should be noted that TJKM accounted for all 275 units contained in the first phase of the Discovery Bay project. Some of these units were built and are presently occupied, which is already reflected in the existing traffic counts. Roadway assignments of the approved project trips are shown on Figure 6. Adding trips to be generated by the approved projects to the existing turning movement volumes at the study intersections resulted in the Existing+Approved Projects traffic volumes. These Existing+ Approved intersection turning movement volumes in the AM and PM peak hours are shown on Figure 7. Response 5 and 6: Pages 24,25, 26 and 27 of the traffic study provide insight and special attention into potential circulation problems and give recommendations/mitigation with respect to site access, pedestrian access to nearby schools,truck traffic during the construction phase and intersection and roadway improvements (i.e. signalization,sidewalks ect.). Thank you for the opportunity to provide these responses. Please call with your questions and/or comments.

A N N LAND DEVELOPMENT C 0 M P A N Y November 4, 2003 Contra Costa County Public Works Department 255 Glacier Drive Martinez, CA 94553 Gentlemen: We received a copy of the staff report and Conditions of Approval for the Ravenswood Subdivision yesterday November 3, 2003. In reviewing the transportation comments we are concerned about the application of standards to this development. On page 13 of the Staff Report Item 3, Regional Traffic Consideration states"the level of development on the Hofmann properties within the study area is somewhat lower than originally identified". This is not accurate, the Hofmann Land Development Company has submitted a General Plan Amendment Request to the Board of Supervisors to make adjustments to the development of the property so that it will maintain the number and density of units originally contemplated by the EIR, Development Plan,Tentative map and other existing approvals. Please correct this statement and incorporate the approved level of development within the Discovery Bay West project in {2000 residential units}in your thinking and application of standards to projects in the area. Continuing under item 3 on page 18 of the staff report is the statement,that"the proposed development would still be required to provide onsite and offsite roadway improvements and to pay both area benefits for the Discovery Bay area and the East County Sub-Regional Transportation Mitigation Fee". Please clarify that the Ravenswood Development will pay a"Discovery Bay West Special Fee"and will contribute funds the special fund reserve for these monies including all increases to said fee through the course of time and other transportation fees at an equivalent level to the Transportation fees in Discovery Bay West. The following comments apply to the findings and Conditions of Approval for County Files DP033008 and SD8710 Reference Open Space: 1. Item 11 on page 11, Hofmann Land Development Company has adjoining open space areas which we would like to join with the Ravenswood open space area for perpetual maintenance. At present these are privately owned and privately maintained open space areas.As noted in our prior correspondence we would welcome an opportunity to investigate creation of an open space maintenance district with the Town and/or the County for the maintenance of these areas. 2. Regarding Condition number 16, Construction Conditions, please be advised that Hofmann Land Development Company has executed certain construction agreements for the maintenance and improvement of Bixier Read which will likely remain in effect for the period of time this development will be hauling building materials. Please require that the Ravenswood Development enter into a similar agreement andlor hold Hofmann Land Development Company harmless for Ravenswood's acts. Alternatively, release Hofmann Land Development Company from it's maintenance obligations for the period that Ravenswood is performing it's operations. 1380 GALAXY WAY 0 ROC Box 758 0 CONCORD, CA 94522 * PHONE 925/682-4830 * FAX 925/682-4771 H 0 E M A N N LAND DEV ELO Ph�4�E7 NT Page 2of2 C 0 1�P A Y Contra Costa County November 4, 2003 3. Drainage/Water Quality, Condition 29 as noted in previous correspondence please advise what is the "existing earth canal". Ownership of this"canal"and the Kellogg Creek area is unclear. 4. Regarding Condition 37, it appears that you are intending to have the Lighting and;Landscape District required in Condition of Approval 10, also maintain the water quality measures. 5. Regarding the series of Conditions addressing flood elevations etc. (40—44)it appears that that the standards that apply here are different than either the Discovery Bay development or the Discovery Bay West development. Our understanding of the ordinance code is that the minimum top of curb elevation for this area is 9.5,which elevation generally dictates pad elevation and relationship. 6. Reference the traffic section contained on pages 32 and 33, please be advised or reminded that you have in your possession traff=ic studies indicating that there are other impacted intersections beside those noted which require fair share contribution form the Discovery Bay West development and should also be applied to this development.We do not have access to this TJKM report so we cannot comment on it's contents however, it is in the public interest to assure that this development funds the transportation improvements of the areas of at least the same level required by the Discovery Bay West development. 7. We assume, but it is not stated, when the project is annexed to the Lighting and Landscape District it will share in the maintenance costs of not only it's fronting landscaping park but also the fronting landscaping of other portions of the Discovery Bay West General Plan Area, including but not limited to all of Bixler Road,all of Point of Timber Road,all of Preston and Newport Drive plus the existing park and park and ride lot. 8. Reference Traffic Mitigation Fee Condition 912, how is the development fee of$4,000.00 for this project arrived at when the Discovery Bay West development constructed approximately one and three quarter miles of offsite road improvements, offsite signal improvements plus substantial non-frontage improvements to existing roadways along it's perimeter and a local fee of$6,798.00 which and expected to go higher, It would seem obvious that the Ravenswood Development transportation impacts are no different than the Discovery Bay West impacts and we would ask that the impact fees be commensurate escalation clauses the fees should be commensurate. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Lan D pment Company t' r . Lennon Senior Vice President Cc: Town of Discovery Bay Western Pacific Housing Contra Costa County Community Development, John Oborne East County Regional Planning Commission 1380 GALAXY 'WAY . P.Q. Bax 758 • CONCORD, CA 94522 • PHONE 925/682-4830 * FAX 925/682-4771 CLARIFICATIONS FOR RAVENSWOOD Based upon information received after preparation of the Responses to Comments regarding the Initial Study for Ravenswood, and prior to and during the Planning Commission hearing, the following clarifications are offered for comments that relate to the Proposed Project's potential environmental impacts: Hoffman Land Company, November 4, 2003, 2nd paragraph: Response:At the time of the preparation of the Initial Study there were 182 "unclaimed units" (described on p. 20 of the Initial Study), leaving 38"unstudied" units. As the project has been reduced to 203 units, the"unstudied units" are reduced to 21. Hoffman's request for a General Pian Amendment to make adjustments to their plans and maintain the number and density of units was not an approved or proposed project as of the date of completion of the Initial Study. The 21 "unstudied units" constitute less than 1% of the total units approved for Discovery Bay West. During preparation of the Initial Study, mitigation measures were identified that reduced the cumulative impacts of the Ravenswood project to less than significant levels. Response to Letter C, Comment#3 should read: "Thirteen of the 203 proposed units are duets, for a total of 26 units.," Response to Letter D, Comment#6,the following should be added: "The addition of`T" Street will reduce project traffic using Newport Lane and passing by the school." Response to Letter"F" Comment#3, the last sentence should read: "The project will be required to contribute its fair share to the costs of signalization. The county has the Newport/Highway 4 signalization project on its list of future projects."
