1 CHAPTER 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 2.1 PROJECT LOCATION The proposed Kaiser Riverside-Cirby Medical Office Building Project (proposed project) area encompasses approximately 14 acres in the City of Roseville (see Figure 2-1, Regional Location). The project site is located to the southeast of the intersection of Riverside Avenue and Cirby Way. Interstate 80 (I-80) borders the south and east sides of the site, as shown in Figure 2-2, Project Site. The project site is identified as assessor s parcel number This Environmental Impact Report (EIR) examines the potential significant environmental effects (or impacts) of the proposed project, for which the applicant is requesting land use approvals from the City of Roseville (City), as lead agency. The EIR will also serve as the environmental clearance document for the construction of required on-site and off-site public improvements, which may include water, wastewater, and storm drainage infrastructure, dry utilities, and pedestrian improvements. This EIR analyzes both the construction and operation phases of the proposed project on a project-specific level (CEQA Guidelines Section 15161). The project-level analysis in this EIR also provides the basis for CEQA compliance for other discretionary permits that may be issued by the City and other agencies. The applicant is requesting the following approvals: Certification of the EIR and adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP); Major Project Permit Stage 1 (Preliminary Development Plan); Major Project Permit Stage 2 (Architecture and Landscape Review); Tree Permit; and General Plan Amendment. Additional approvals may be required by responsible and trustee agencies, including the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board. 2.2 PROJECT BACKGROUND Project Setting, Existing, and Surrounding Land Uses The approximately 14-acre project site is currently developed with six buildings that comprise the Kaiser Permanente medical office complex located at 1001 Riverside Avenue, along with 613 surface parking spaces and landscaping. The existing medical office complex includes four one-story medical office buildings, one two-story medical office building, and a one-story communications building for a total of 90,209 square feet. The existing medical office complex includes 71 provider offices that range from allergy, optometry/ophthalmology, primary care, March

2 laboratory, imaging, pharmacy, support services, and administration. The buildings were constructed between 1980 and Landscaping is present along the perimeter of the site and internal to the site, including a number of mature trees. Within the project site, there are a total of 290 mature trees, the majority of which were planted as landscaping. From Riverside Avenue, the project site slopes gently upward to the east. The increase in elevation from Riverside Avenue to the center of the project site is approximately 25 feet. Surrounding uses adjacent to the site include a mix of retail uses, apartments, and public storage, as shown in Table 2-1 and on Figure 2-2.

The City of Roseville s General Plan states that the CC designation applies to sites with acreages ranging from 5 to 25 acres and with square footage ranging from 50,000 to 250,000 square feet. Floor area ratios for this designation range from 20% to 40% (City of Roseville 2016, p. II-25). According to the City s General Plan, Primary uses within the CC designation include retail stores and businesses selling a full range of goods and services, including auto sales and repair, and commercial childcare facilities. Secondary uses allowed include professional offices uses, medical offices, and clinics (City of Roseville 2016). The project site is zoned Business Professional (BP), which permits (e.g., allows by right) professional offices and General Medical services, but not general hospital services. The maximum building height allowed by right in the BP zone is 50 feet (City of Roseville 2016). March

7 Farmland Classification The most recent California Department of Conservation Important Farmland Map for Placer County designates the site as Urban and Built Up Land (California Department of Conservation 2016). Land classified as Urban and Built Up Land does not possess any characteristics conducive for active agriculture. 2.3 PROJECT OBJECTIVES The proposed project is intended to provide for the comprehensive planning and orderly development of the Kaiser Permanente, Riverside-Cirby site. Development of the proposed project is intended to be consistent with the policies of the City. The applicant has identified the following specific objectives for the project: Develop a replacement outpatient medical office building that includes a café, health education, optical center, physical therapy/rehab, comprehensive diagnostic imaging, eight adult primary care clinics, specialty clinics for obstetrics and gynecology, dermatology and allergy, injection clinic, and comprehensive eye services including ophthalmology and optometry on an underutilized property with multiple end-of-life structures to accommodate existing and growing demand for medical care in the Roseville community. Provide high-quality healthcare to serve up to 9,000 Kaiser Permanente members (and their family or care-givers) per day in a medical facility for those needing medical assistance in Roseville and surrounding communities. Provide convenient access and reduce vehicle trips for Kaiser Permanente members to obtain routine, rapid-transaction medical services (e.g., pharmacy and laboratory) and provide onsite conference facilities for classes, training and other events. Achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold Certification as well as implement Kaiser s existing sustainable building strategies. Provide uninterrupted services to Kaiser Permanente members throughout the construction period by staging project construction in phases. Provide new employment opportunities for over 200 new employees at the Riverside- Cirby medical office buildings and temporary construction jobs through redevelopment. March

8 2.4 PROPOSED PROJECT Project Description The applicant proposes to replace the existing structures and uses on the project with an approximately 194,000-square-foot, five-story medical office building, along with a one-story, 21- foot-tall, 16,000-square-foot pavilion building and related site improvements, including an approximately 11-foot tall, 82,630-square-foot parking deck with 255 parking spaces, surface parking lot with 803 spaces, site/building lighting, and landscaping, described in more detail below and shown in Figure 2-3, Site Plan. The existing medical complex buildings would be removed and replaced with the proposed project, as shown in Figure 2-4. Therefore, the proposed project would result in adding 119,791 square feet of new medical office building space. The proposed projects FAR would be 34%, which is allowable under the City s CC designation. The proposed project has been designed to be consistent with the City s Community Design Guidelines (City of Roseville 2008) and to ensure compatibility with the surrounding development. Of the two proposed medical buildings, the single-story pavilion building would house pharmacy, laboratory, and conference space. The five-story medical office building would include on the ground floor retail and public functions including a café, health education, and optical center, as well as physical therapy/rehab and comprehensive diagnostic imaging. The clinic floors in the medical office building (floors 2 through 5) would include eight adult primary care clinics, specialty clinics for obstetrics and gynecology, dermatology and allergy, injection clinic, and comprehensive eye services including ophthalmology and optometry. This new medical office building would result in double the capacity of the existing clinics, which would facilitate better member access. Currently, the existing medical office building complex employs 224 full-time people. The proposed project would add an additional 202 full time positions, for a total of 426 full time employees. Hours of operation would generally be Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Conference Center in the pavilion building may be open until 10:00 p.m. on some days depending on events and class schedules. Additional project detail is provided on the City s website at: gov/development_services/_planning/current_projects/kaiser_riverside_and_cirby_medical_ office_building.asp. March

11 Building Design The exterior of the five-story medical office building would consist of a mix of metal panels, lightweight concrete panels, glass curtainwall, glazed storefronts and concrete masonry units. The highest point of the medical office building would be approximately 80 feet. The highest occupied floor (5th floor) would be 55 feet high (from existing grade) with a typical floor-tofloor height of 13 feet 6 inches. Rooftop mechanical equipment would be shielded by the building parapet. The one-story pavilion building would use the same exterior materials as the medical office building for design cohesiveness. The highest point of the pavilion building would be approximately 20 feet, with limited additional height for a screened mechanical enclosure at the roof level. These two buildings have been situated in a way that allows a single entry canopy feature to tie the two buildings together. The placement of the buildings also creates an opportunity for outdoor courtyards that feature water efficient gardens and space for multiple outdoor programs. Exterior colors for the five-story medical office building and one-story pavilion building would include a sandy beige color for the concrete panels with varying degrees of exposed gray aggregate. The insulated metal panel colors would be silver and weathered zinc arranged in a pattern that provides a contrast to the beige concrete panels. The majority of the north, east and west elevations consist of pewter colored mullions, clear vision glass and light-gray colored spandrel glass. The base of the building is designed to have chocolate brown concrete masonry units with a shiplap profile for added visual interest. The two-level concrete parking deck at the southwest corner of the project site would take advantage of the existing topography between the medical office building and adjacent freeway, allowing the top level of the deck to be at grade and the lower level to be partially underground. The total height above ground would be 10-feet, 10-inches tall. Exposed concrete facades of the parking deck would be gray-colored with a green screen mesh attached to the exposed surfaces for climbing vines. The structure of the parking deck would be designed for a possible future installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on the top deck. These PV structures would also provide shade for vehicles parked on the top level of the deck, and would be designed to not create glare for vehicles traveling on Riverside Avenue and I-80. Color building elevations are shown on Figures 2-5 through 2-8. Signage The proposed project would include monument signs at both entries to the project site (Cirby Way and Riverside Avenue), as well as directional signage on the site (see Figure 2-3). The monument signs would be constructed of aluminum and would be internally illuminated. The total height would be 15-feet, as shown in Figure 2-9. Each building would include illuminated March

12 exterior signage at the first floor to direct patients, visitors, and staff. Large illuminated signs would also be mounted at the top of the five-story building and would be visible from I-80 and site entries (as shown on Figure 2-5). Project Access, Parking, and Bicycle/Pedestrian Components The main entry to the project site would be from Riverside Avenue, with additional access at Cirby Way, as shown in Figure 2-3. The main Riverside Avenue entry, Kaiser West Driveway, would be relocated 40 feet to the south of its current location and would include a public twoway driveway. The main Riverside Avenue entry would include a public two-way driveway and an internal vehicular circulation system that would provide access to the surface parking lot and parking deck. A total of 803 surface parking spaces would be provided along with 255 parking spaces in the parking deck for a total of 1,058 spaces. A series of drop-off zones would provide patient access to the medical office building entrance to ensure traffic flow is maintained while passenger loading and unloading occurs, shown on Figure The secondary entry driveway at Cirby Way, Kaiser North Driveway, currently includes one-lane access into the site. The proposed project would expand this driveway to provide three lanes leaving the site. As part of the proposed project, a new traffic signal would be constructed at the Kaiser North Driveway to facilitate traffic into and out of the project site and to enable vehicles to have a protected left-turn lane or straight-through access to Cirby Hills Drive, with a right-turn lane from the site. There would be a new right-turn, outbound-only driveway that would be located east of the Cirby Way/Riverside Avenue intersection. This would provide additional access for people leaving the site. The proposed project would include 53 bike parking spaces and 27 bike lockers consistent with the City s Zoning Ordinance requirements (Section ), Transportation Systems Management Ordinance (Section ), and CALGreen (Sections , ). Sidewalks 5 to 8 feet in width would be provided from the medical office building main entrance, in the parking area, the parking deck, from Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) parking spaces, along the internal loop road, and within the internal courtyard. As part of the project, Cirby Way would be lowered up to 18 inches and the sidewalks would be rebuilt to accommodate a new right-hand turn lane into the site. March

27 Lighting and Landscaping To provide for the safety and security of staff and the public, the project would include overhead parking lot and roadway pole lights, low-level lighting on bollards to illuminate landscaped areas and sidewalks, and building-mounted lighting at entrances. Architectural lighting would also be used to illuminate key architectural features. Light fixtures would use premium-efficiency LED light sources. Area lighting would automatically turn off during the day, and motion-activated controls would be provided to dim the lighting at night when there is no activity. Lighting would be designed to meet the City s Community Design Guidelines and would minimize light trespass, reduce sky-glow to increase night sky access, and improve nighttime visibility through glare reduction. The proposed project s landscaping plan divides the parking lot areas into smaller zones. Large deciduous trees would be planted along the main loop road that runs throughout the site. Where possible, existing mature trees, particularly redwood trees, would be preserved on site, including protected oak trees in the southwest corner of the site and redwood trees north of the main building and in the north parking lot. The proposed landscape along Riverside Avenue would consist of water efficient native plants and trees, replacing the existing lawn. Of the existing 290 mature trees that were planted as part of the original landscaping plan, a total of 245 trees would be removed including two of the existing six native oak trees that are located in the southwest corner of the site and are protected under the City s tree preservation ordinance. A total of 45 trees would be retained and 404 new trees would be planted on the project site, resulting in a total of 449 trees (a net gain of 156 trees). Landscaping would use native plants and be drought resistant where feasible, and would be required to comply with the City s Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. Sustainability Features The proposed project has been designed to meet Kaiser Permanente s sustainability requirements, which include achieving LEED New Construction 2009 Gold certification and specific energy efficiency thresholds. The Energy Performance Requirement includes a minimum of 25% energy savings compared against ASHRAE Baseline. The project must also comply with the California Energy Code, Title 24. The proposed project includes the following energy conservation and sustainable features: High-performance building envelope March

28 Optimized orientation and massing on the east west axis, which maximizes passive solar heating during the winter, but minimizes solar heat gain during the summer months which reduces the amount of energy required for heating and cooling Daylight dimming of electric lighting LED lighting Electrochromic glass at select locations to reduce heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) energy use and improve occupant visual comfort Optimized HVAC system Solar ready approach to easily integrate solar photovoltaics at a later date on the parking deck Measurement and verification of energy usage Preferred parking spaces for high-efficient and low-emitting vehicles, and charging stations for electric vehicles Preferred parking for high-occupancy vehicles (two or more people) Bicycle racks for all occupants and showers for staff Low-flow and low-flush plumbing fixtures with flush and flow rates significantly below the national standard set by the US Department of Energy s Energy Policy Act (EPACT) 1992 High efficiency irrigation systems Low and medium water use plants Water-efficient or water-free medical equipment Water-free cooling equipment Low-emitting materials such as adhesives, sealants, paint, coatings, flooring systems, composite wood Carbon dioxide sensors in densely occupied spaces. Public Utilities The City of Roseville would provide water, sewer, and storm drain facilities to serve the project site. The City of Roseville obtains its water supply from Folsom Lake under contracts with the United States Bureau of Reclamation, the Placer County Water Agency, and the San Juan Water District. To supplement supply during dry years, the City also operates six groundwater wells. Sanitary sewer service is available from the Pleasant Grove Wastewater Treatment Plant (PGWWTP) to serve the project. Wastewater would be conveyed from the project site to the PGWWTP through existing sewer interceptors and trunk mains. Stormwater would be treated March

29 through the use of an underground detention system (galleries) that would detain and treat stormwater on site before it is discharged into the site s two existing connections to the City s storm drain system. Water The existing campus is served by a 6-inch water line stub connected to a 10-inch public distribution main in Cirby Hills Drive. This service would be maintained until the new buildings are occupied to provide continuous service to the existing buildings during construction. For the new buildings, two new 10-inch service lines would connect to the City s existing 10-inch distribution main at Cirby Hills Drive and a 24-inch transmission main in Cirby Way. To ensure adequate water is provided in the event of a fire, the proposed project would include on-site fire service that would include a private 10-inch looped system around the site, generally following on-site roads and parking areas. The looped system would connect to two new 10-inch service stubs with a reduced-pressure detector check backflow device at each stub. Private fire hydrants would be located around the site, connecting to the 10-inch looped system. Sprinkler service lines to the new buildings from the 10-inch line would include an in-line check valve, a post indicator valve, and a fire department connection. A domestic service line would be stubbed off of one of the new 10-inch service stubs and would include a City meter and reduced-pressure principle backflow device. An irrigation service line would be stubbed off of one of the new 10-inch service stubs and would include a City meter and reduced-pressure principle backflow device. Wastewater The existing campus is served by an 8-inch sewer main in Cirby Way that connects to an 8-inch sewer main in in Riverside Avenue. The on-site sewer system would be maintained until the new buildings are occupied in order to provide continuous service to the existing buildings during construction. For the new buildings, due to limited capacity of the 8-inch sewer main in Riverside Avenue, two new 8-inch service lines would be installed. The first would connect to the 8-inch main in Cirby Way, similar to the existing service. The second would connect to an existing public manhole in Cirby Hills Drive that is connected to an 8-inch sewer line. No new pump stations or other facilities or upgrades would be required for the proposed project. Stormwater Drainage The existing campus is served by two connections to the City s storm drain system. The first is a curb inlet just south of the Riverside/Cirby intersection. The second is an 18-inch pipe just east of the existing Cirby Way entrance. These two connection points would be maintained. March

30 The proposed project would maintain pre-project flow rates through the use of on-site infiltration and detention. The proposed project s detention system would include an orifice structure located just upstream of the connection to the City s public system. The detention structure would store excess water in underground infiltration galleries. The detention volume has been designed to store stormwater to not exceed the pre-project peak discharge flow rate associated with a 10-year storm event. Pavement runoff would be directed to area inlets or curb inlets. Roof runoff would be connected to subsurface infiltration galleries. The on-site piping system would be designed to convey the 10% chance (10-year) storm event. Overland release would be provided to convey the 1% chance (100-year) storm event. Low-impact development (LID) design elements would be included. The primary LID element is infiltration through the use of underground galleries. Infiltration measures would be sized to accommodate the 85th percentile storm event to meet the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) post-construction LID and hydro-modification requirement, in accordance with the City of Roseville requirements. These stormwater quality control measures have been designed to comply with the requirements of the City s Manual for Stormwater Quality Control Standards for New Development. Off-Site Improvements Off-site improvements include: reconfiguring roads; removal and replacement of driveways, curbs, planting areas, and medians; traffic lane striping; relocation of utilities; and a new traffic signal. Approximately 400 feet of Cirby Way adjacent to the project site would be removed and reconstructed. The vertical profile of the roadway would be lowered by as much as 18 inches to improve driver sight distance. The project also includes surface improvements at the frontage of the self-storage facility on the north side of Cirby Way, including removal and reconstruction of concrete driveways, concrete curbs, asphalt pavement areas, planting areas, and site lighting. In addition, a monument sign and a flagpole may need to be relocated as a result of lowering the roadway profile. Curbs, gutters, sidewalks, median islands, and asphalt pavement along Cirby Way would be reconstructed. Traffic striping within the demolition limits would be restored. A new traffic signal system at the Cirby Way/Cirby Hills Drive intersection would be constructed. Utility systems affected by the lowering of the roadway profile would need to be relocated (lowered) to maintain minimum cover requirements. Utilities affected include, but would not be limited to, a 2-inch domestic water line (City of Roseville), sewer line extensions (City of Roseville), potable water system isolation valves (City of Roseville), potable water system air- March

31 release valves (City of Roseville), telecommunications/fiber-optics conduits (MCI, Sprint), street lighting (Roseville Electric), primary and secondary power conduits (Roseville Electric), and a 4- inch gas distribution main (Pacific Gas and Electric [PG&E]). Construction Timeline If the project is approved, project construction is anticipated to take approximately 3 years to complete and would occur in multiple phases. Phasing is required in order for the existing medical office buildings to remain open with sufficient parking capacity and public access during construction. For the entire duration of the project, valet parking would be provided to patients and visitors, and staff would be shuttled to the site from off-site parking locations. Construction parking would be limited to the existing east parking lot until the new parking deck is completed, at which point the lower level would be used for construction personnel. Once construction begins, the construction area would be fenced and all construction equipment would be staged on site. Construction trailers would be located in an equipment yard behind the existing medical office buildings, with little visibility from the adjacent streets or I-80. Exports of construction material and soil would be taken to the Western Regional Sanitary Landfill located 12 miles from the project site. All construction personnel and deliveries to and from the site would be limited to the Cirby Way entrance when possible so as not to disrupt the primary Riverside Avenue entrance for patients and visitors. The following provides a more detailed breakdown of each phase of construction. Phase 1 (3 months): Demolition of the existing southernmost parking lot, followed by site excavation, installation of underground utilities, and construction of the new 2-level parking deck. Demolition of the existing west lawn along Riverside Avenue would happen concurrently, followed by new site grading, utilities and construction of temporary surface parking that extends from the existing west parking lot to the line of the new landscape border. Within the first year of construction, temporary landscaping would be provided along Riverside Avenue until the final landscaping is completed. Within the first year of construction, off-site road improvements on Cirby Way would also begin. Phases 2, 3 and 4 (24 months): o o Phase 2: Completion of the parking deck and demolition of the south parking lot adjacent to the existing medical office buildings. Site preparation, installation of underground utilities and foundation work for the new five-story medical office building would be completed. Phase 3: Construction of the structural steel and exterior envelope enclosure for the five-story medical office building would be completed. March

32 o o Phase 4: Construction continues with interior tenant improvement of the five-story medical office building. Construction of the pavilion building would begin approximately 9 months after starting the five-story building. Both buildings would be complete and ready for business at the end of Phase 4. Existing functions in the old medical office buildings would be transferred into the new buildings. Phase 5 (3 months): Demolition of the east parking lot followed by completion of underground utilities, hardscape and final site landscape for this area. Construction parking during this phase would be at the existing north parking lot. Phase 6 (5 months): Demolition of the old medical office buildings followed by completion of underground utilities, hardscape and final site landscape for this area. This would include the north parking lot, new main entry patient-drop off and courtyards. Construction parking during this phase would be at the newly finished east lot. Phase 7 (3 months): Completion of the hardscape and final site landscaping for the west parking lot. This area was temporarily finished in Phase 1 to accommodate valet parking for patients and visitors. Final landscaping along Riverside Avenue would also be completed at this time. Final construction of the internal loop road and east parking lot would align the new Cirby Way entry and exit with the rest of the site. The entire project is complete after this phase. It is anticipated construction would be completed by fall REQUIRED PERMITS AND PROJECT APPROVALS The City of Roseville is the lead agency for the proposed project. As required by Section 15124(d)(1)(B) of the CEQA Guidelines, this EIR lists below the permits and other approvals that are expected to be required to implement the project. In addition to these requirements, environmental review and consultation requirements related to federal, state, or other local laws or guidance applicable to individual resources are described in the Regulatory Setting subsections provided in Chapter 4 of this EIR. This EIR will serve as the environmental document for City approvals and any permits required from other governmental bodies for project construction and operation, including required on-site and off-site public improvements, which may include water, wastewater, and storm drainage infrastructure, as well as dry utilities. The applicant is requesting the following approvals: Certification of the EIR and adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP); Major Project Permit Stage 1 (Preliminary Development Plan); Major Project Permit Stage 2 (Architecture and Landscape Review); Tree Permit to remove a protected native oak tree; and March

33 General Plan Amendment for minor, text-only changes to the Circulation Element. 1 The project is requesting to amend Table III-3 and III-3A in the General Plan to add the new traffic signal at the Cirby Way/Cirby Hills Drive/Kaiser North Driveway. The project also includes amendments to the Setting section of the Level of Service portion of the General Plan Circulation Element to reflect the new intersection. This EIR may be used by responsible and trustee agencies that may have some approval authority over the proposed project (i.e., to issue a permit). The project applicant would obtain all permits and approvals, as required by law. Because the project would require construction involving clearing, grading, and excavation activities that would result in the disturbance of 1 acre or more of land, the project is subject to the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board s General Construction permit for stormwater discharges from the construction site. The terms of the General Permit process will require the project applicant develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) that identifies best management practices to control pollutants in stormwater discharges, both during construction and after construction is completed. 2.6 SOURCES California Department of Conservation Placer County Important Farmland 2014 [map]. 1:100,000.
