ENVIRONMENTAL:
An environmental checklist was prepared for the proposed project that
concluded no additional environmental impacts would occur from approval of the
project. The environmental analysis checklist concludes that it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a
significant effect on the environment because all potentially significant effects 1)
have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable
standards, and 2) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR,
including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed
project.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 4195 approving Concept
Plan 2012-001, Design Review 2012-001, and Conditional Use Permit 2012-01
to develop an approximately 196,000 square foot commercial mixed-use
