1 1 RESOLUTION NO. 1- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN GABRIEL, CALIFORNIA CERTIFYING THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT FOR THE OLSON RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY PROJECT FOR PURPOSES OF THE REQUESTED GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT, ZONE CHANGE AND PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY ZONE, MAKING FINDINGS REQUIRED BY CEQA, AND ADOPTING A MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM WHEREAS, in 1 Olson Urban Housing LLC submitted an application to the City of San Gabriel to develop the site commonly known as EI Monte Street, consisting of parcels addressed as,, 0, 00 and 01 EI Monte Street, 00 and Gladys Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue (Assessor Parcel Numbers 0-0, 01 and 01 and -01-0, 0, 0, 0 and 0) with an -unit residential condominium community (the "Project"); and WHEREAS, in 1 the City began the environmental review process for the Project which culminated in the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") which was circulated for a -day review period from April 1, 1 through May, 1 as further detailed in Section I.B of Exhibit A, attached hereto; and WHEREAS, in addition to certification of the EIR and the required CEQA findings, the following approvals are required for the Project: Planning Commission approval of the tentative tract map; Design Review Commission approval of the Precise Plan of Design; and City Council approval of the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone; and WHEREAS, on June, 1 the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing at which time it: adopted Planning Commission Resolution No. 1-01 certifying the EIR and making findings for the Precise Plan of Design and tentative tract map and recommending that the City Council certify the EIR and make similar findings for the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone; and adopted Planning Commission Resolution No. 1-0 recommending that the City RESOLUTION NO. ] - ATTACHMENT

1 1 Council approve the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone; and WHEREAS, on June, 1 the Planning Commission also approved the Tentative Tract Map for the Project; and WHEREAS, on June, 1 the Design Review Commission approved the Precise Plan of Design for the project, subject to the City Council's approval of the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone for the site; and WHEREAS, on June, 1 the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone and the matters set forth in this Resolution at which time it considered all information presented to it, both oral and written; NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN GABRIEL DOES HEREBY FIND, CERTIFY AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The Draft EIR ("DEIR") has been drafted and circulated in accordance with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines and the City of San Gabriel CEQA Procedures and the City has fully complied with all procedural requirements of CEQA. SECTION. The EIR ("EIR") consists of: the Draft EIR dated March 1, 1, including the Technical Appendices to the DEIR; the Comments, Responses and changes to the DEIR, and the required findings, incorporated into that document entitled "Final Olson Residential Community Project Environmental Impact Report" dated May, 1; and the Mitigation Monitoring Program. No significant new information was disclosed as a result of the comments or responses which would require recirculation of the DEIR; all of the revisions merely amplify or clarify existing information or make other insignificant modifications. The EIR contains all of the sections required by CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. SECTION. The EIR was prepared by LSA Associates, Inc., a consulting firm specializing in the preparation of environmental documents, and has been thoroughly reviewed by City staff. The City Council has independently reviewed and analyzed the RESOLUTION NO. 1-

1 1 EIR and hereby finds and determines that the EIR represents the independent judgment of the City as required by Public Resources Code section 0.1(c)(). SECTION. The EIR identifies that most of the impacts analyzed in the Initial Study and the DEIR will have no impact or less than a significant impact and no mitigation measures are required. These impacts and the reasoning for the conclusions are identified in Section V.A of Exhibit A, attached hereto, which summarizes the information from the EIR. SECTION. The EIR identifies a number of impacts as less than significant, with the imposition of mitigation. The City Council finds that for each of the impacts listed below and more fully described in the summary in Section V.B of Exhibit A, attached hereto, the mitigation measures described in Exhibit A will adequately mitigate the identified impacts below a level of significance in accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 01 (a)(l). Mitigation measures are very briefly summarized herein. Biological Resources o Impacts relating to site preparation and project-related grading or construction activities and potentially occurring native and migratory bird species and nesting special status avian species will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measures...1A and...1b requiring site preparation activities be avoided during nesting season and prohibiting grading or heavy equipment activities while nestslburrows are active. o Impacts relating to existing trees on the areas to be developed will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...A requiring an arborist's assessment of existing trees and the replacement of carrot wood and pine trees with similar native species. Cultural Resources o Impacts relating to prehistoric cultural resources will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measures...1A through...1d which require the retention of a qualified archaeologist and tribal monitor who is to be given notice of and be on-site during all mass grading and trenching RESOLUTION NO. 1-

1 1 activities, the preparation and implementation of a treatment and/or preservation plan to protect archaeological resources from damage or destruction and return them to the appropriate tribal representatives for curating and disposition, and require work to be halted within a 0 foot radius of discovered archaeological resources if the archaeologist or tribal monitor are not present. o Impacts relating to paleontological resources (fossils) will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...A which requires work to be halted if paleontological resources are discovered and then assessed by a qualified paleontologist who shall monitor remaining earthmoving activities. Geology and Soils o Impacts relating to unstable soils will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...1 A which requires submittal of a supplemental geotechnical/soils assessment for review and approval by the City Engineer prior to building permit issuance. Greenhouse Gases and Global Climate Change o Impacts relating to cumulative greenhouse gas emissions will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...1 requiring the diversion of at least 0% of construction and building materials, the design of all building to exceed Title energy standards by % and implementation of a comprehensive water conservation strategy. Hazards and Hazardous Materials o Impacts relating to on-site hazardous materials will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measures...1A, and...1b requiring the retention of a qualified contractor to determine if asbestos-containing materials and/or lead-based paint are present and if so, to remove them prior to demolition and for the sampling and testing of soil in the area previously contaminated by diesel fuel constituents, prior to grading permit issuance, to determine if all contaminated soil has been removed. RESOLUTION NO. 1-

1 1 Additionally, Mitigation Measure...1 C requires Environmental Site Assessments to insure that the City-owned property east and south of the project site is not contaminated, and if it is, is made safe for trail use. Hydrology and Water Quality o Impacts relating to construction-related water quality will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measures...IA and...1b which require, prior to grading permit issuance, the filing of a Notice of Intent with the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board to be covered under the NPDES permit for discharge of storm water associated with construction activities and approval of a project-specific Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. o Impacts relating to operational-related water quality will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...A which requires implementation of long-term best management practices outlined in the project Standard Urban Stormwater Management Plan. Noise o Impacts relating to short-term construction noise would be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measures...1A,...1B and...1c, requiring submittal of a Construction Noise Reduction Plan, restriction of construction vehicles to EI Monte Street, San Gabriel Boulevard and Santa Fe A venue, and the posting of a notice at the project entrance with the name and phone number of the person to whom residents can report excessive noise or other nuisance conditions. o Impacts related to long-term noise from project occupancy will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...A which requires the buildings to meet the noise attenuation construction standards outlined in the project noise study, including noise-reducing windows and construction of a foot high sound wall at the northern end of the project site. Transportation and Traffic RESOLUTION NO. 1-

o Impacts relating to short-term operational impacts will be fully 1 1 mitigated by Mitigation Measure...IA requiring submittal of a Construction Traffic Mitigation Plan for the review and approval of the City Public Works Director. o Impacts relating to long-term operational impacts will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...A, which requires the developer to either install or pay a fair-share contribution to a traffic signal at the intersection of San Gabriel Boulevard and EI Monte Street, road improvements on EI Monte Street between San Gabriel Boulevard and Gladys Avenue and a traffic signal at the intersection of San Gabriel Boulevard and Grand Avenue, by Mitigation Measure...B which gives the developer the option of conducting a subsequent signal warrant analysis following completion of the Alameda Corridor East San Gabriel Trench Project and by Mitigation Measure...C which requires the developer to document that off-site parking conditions along EI Monte Street west of Gladys A venue accommodate the needs of the San Gabriel Nursery and allow for adequate vehicle movement along EI Monte Street, and if necessary, to make improvements to one or both sides of EI Monte Street to accommodate projected parking needs. Utilities and Service Systems o Impacts relating to wastewater conveyance facilities will be fully mitigated by Mitigation Measure...1A which requires the developer to pay a fair-share contribution to upgrading/expanding the existing deficient sewer line in San Gabriel Boulevard. SECTION. Three additional letters were received after the public review period from Edison, Union Pacific, and County Sanitation Districts. Staff, the environmental consultant and the Planning Commission have reviewed these letters and have determined that the letters do not add any new information which would necessitate recirculating the EIR, nor do they require any new mitigation measures. RESOLUTION NO. 1-

SECTION. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 0, the City 1 1 Council finds that the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone may be approved because with the mitigation measures discussed in Section above, as well as in the EIR and in Exhibit A, the City has mitigated all significant effects of the project on the environment to below a level of significance. SECTION. The EIR identifies one impact which cannot be mitigated below a level of significance and is therefore unavoidable. This impact, which is more fully identified in Section V.C of Exhibit A attached hereto, is as follows: Noise o Impacts relating to vibration from the Union Pacific Railroad line immediately north of the site will be significant for future project residents in a number of on-site units on both the ground and upper floors. The noise analysis indicates that there is no feasible way to reduce ground floor vibrations and the only possible method of reducing upper floor vibration is enhanced construction techniques would substantially increase the construction costs and make the mitigation economically and socially infeasible as it would price the units out of range of the targeted home buyer. Thus, there are no cost effective or feasible mitigation measures available that could reduce vibration impacts in project units closest to the train tracks to less than significant levels. The vibration that will be experienced by residents of the eight () affected units is not an impact of the project upon the environment, but is an impact of the existing environment upon the project and, by law, is not required to be analyzed under CEQA. Consequently, none of the requirements relating to mitigation measures, alternatives, or a statement of overriding considerations applies to this impact. Nonetheless, with respect to this impact, the City Council finds that there are no other mitigation measures, changes or alterations which could be required or incorporated into the Project which would reduce the ground floor vibration and that reducing the upper floor vibration is infeasible for economic reasons because it would place the cost of the units out of reach to the target buyers. RESOLUTION NO. 1-

1 1 Conditions will be imposed on the Project that will require: all potential buyers of the impacted units to be notified of the unavoidable vibrations and the frequency and hours of the train schedule; and a declaration of vibration impacts to be recorded against the affected units. SECTION. The EIR analyzed several alternatives as outlined in Section V.D of Exhibit A, attached hereto. Some alternatives were considered and rejected for the reasons stated therein (Commercial Project Alternative). The two alternatives that were analyzed were the No ProjectINo Build Alternative and the Modified Site Plan Alternative. The environmentally superior alternative was identified as the Modified Site Plan Alternative. However, this alternative is only superior because it eliminates the unavoidable vibration that wi1l be felt by residents of of the units and as this is not an impact that is actually required to be analyzed by CEQA because it is the impact of the existing environment on the project (as opposed to the impact of the project on the environment), the City is not required to choose the environmentally superior alternative. Even if the City were required to mitigate this impact and make findings regarding this alternative in accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 01(a)(), the City Council finds that the Modified Site Plan Alternative would not be feasible because it fails to meet a number of the Project objectives: 1) it would reduce the number of proposed units by %, thereby raising the price of the remaining units, making them less competitive in the local housing market and making it more difficult to provide several types of condominiums which meet a variety of market needs; ) it would reduce the ability to support City services due to reduced property tax revenues; and ) it would result in less work that can be done in developing the Rubio Wash trail system on the City's land as the Developer has agreed make improvements only in an amount equivalent to the open space development impact fees required for the product and fewer units means less impact fees and less work that can be done. SECTION. CEQA Guidelines section 0 requires the adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations when the lead agency approves a project which will result in the occurrence of significant impacts which cannot be avoided or substantially lessened. Again, as the vibration impacts is not an impact of the project on RESOLUTION NO. 1-

the environment, but an impact of the environment on the project, adoption of a 1 1 Statement of Overriding Considerations is not required. Nevertheless, the City Council wishes to point out the benefits of this Project which outweigh the vibrations which will be felt by the residents of the eight units. The Project will provide much needed increased property tax revenue to the City and the additional eight units will provide additional tax revenue and additional units means that more work can be done in developing the Rubio Wash trail system on adjacent City property; the Project will maximize the economic viability of the underutilized site. SECTION. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 01(d), the City Council hereby adopts the mitigation monitoring and reporting program attached hereto as Exhibit B and further specifies that each of the mitigation measures set forth therein shall be deemed and imposed as conditions of the Project as part of the approval of the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone. SECTION. Based on the above, the City Council hereby certifies the Final Environmental Impact Report for purposes of the general plan amendment, zone change, and planned development overlay zone. SECTION 1. The Custodian of Record is the Community Development Director. SECTION 1. The City Council's findings set forth herein are based on the information in the EIR, the Findings of Fact attached hereto as Exhibit A, and all written and oral evidence presented to the City Council on this matter including, but not limited to, the staff reports and minutes from the Planning Commission. SECTION. This Resolution shall take effect immediately. PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City Council on the 1 i h day of June 1, by the following vote: AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: RESOLUTION NO. 1-

An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared pursuant to CEQA assessing the potential environmental impacts that might result from the approval of the proposed General Plan Amendment. Based on this analysis, it was concluded that the Project as a whole would result in significant impacts that could not be mitigated, but such impacts were limited to vibration impacts from regular train activity on the tracks immediately north of the site. The Planning Commission recommended that the City Council certify the FEIR and approve the General Plan Amendment; and WHEREAS, on June, 1, the City Council held a duly noticed public ATTACHMENT

1 1 hearing on the General Plan Amendment. The Council members reviewed all correspondence that was received for and against the project. Testimony was taken from interested persons in favor of and in opposition to the General Plan Amendment. The City Council reviewed and considered the previously prepared EIR, together with all comments, both written and oral, received during the public review and public hearing process; and WHEREAS, the City Council approved Resolution No. 1-, certifying the FEIR, making findings required by CEQA, adopting a statement of overriding considerations and adopting a mitigation monitoring program. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN GABRIEL DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1: The City Council hereby determines that Planning Case No. PL-1-1 is compatible, consistent, and integrated with the Land Use Element, Housing Element and all other elements of the City's General Plan as further documented in the EIR, which analysis is incorporated herein by reference. Amending the General Plan is in the public. Amendment of the General Plan is in the public interest because it will provide a variety of housing for the City and will lead to development of a parcel that is no longer suited for commercial development. SECTION : That based on the recommendation of the Planning Commission and the testimony and evidence received at the public hearing, the City Council hereby approves Planning Case No. PL-1-1, amending the City's General Plan to change the land use designation of the Property from commercial to High Density Residential. Staff is hereby directed to amend the Land Use Map to reflect this change as shown in Exhibit A-I, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. * * * * * PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN GABRIEL THIS TH DAY OF JUNE, 1.

The City Council HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES, AND DECLARES:. The Zone Change and Planned Development Overlay Zone request satisfies the requirements of the 0 Comprehensive General Plan of the City of San Gabriel in that the proposed Zone Change and Planned Development Overlay Zone represents good planning practices by changing the zoning on these parcels to R- to facilitate a proposed residential community that would be compatible with the residential and institutional uses that have been on the east side of Gladys Ave., in some cases for nearly 0 years; the properties in question were zoned for commercial use in the mid-l 0s, some after having previously been industrially zoned, in anticipation of a large commercial center someday developing on the east side of Gladys Ave. which never materialized and the community would now be better served by changing their zoning to allow for new housing to be built; the zone change will set the stage for the removal of vacant, blighted buildings and the redevelopment of underutilized property with quality housing that will help the City reach its regional housing targets, as well as provide much needed revenue from fees, property taxes and utility user taxes all while improving the neighborhood's infrastructure; and the Planned Development Overlay Zone will provide the ORD. NO. 1-C.S.

1 1 flexibility needed to tailor development standards to the unique size and shape of the project site; and b. The Zone Change and Planned Development Overlay Zone are consistent with the General Plan Amendment to the Land Use designation approved by Resolution No. 1- as well as with other elements of the City's General Plan, including the Housing Element in that they promote and encourage the provision of adequate housing to meet the needs of the community, encourage the use of innovative land use techniques and construction methods to minimize housing costs without compromising basic health, safety and aesthetic considerations, encourage a wide range of housing types, prices and ownership forms in new construction and promote and encourage housing opportunities accessible to employment centers, quality community centers, and quality community services for all economic segments of the community, regardless of race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, disability, sex, familial status, or marital status. This approval of a Zone Change and Planned Development Overlay Zone is for eight () assessor's parcels only. Real property is deemed to be unique and the approval of this Zone Change and Planned Development Overlay Zone does not establish a precedent for and is not a part of any other application; SECTION. The Official Zoning Map of the City is hereby amended to rezone the properties located at,, 0, 00 and 01 EI Monte Street, 00 and Gladys Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue from C-l (Retail Commercial) to R- (Multiple-Family Residence) with a Planned Development Overlay Zone, as depicted on Exhibit "B", attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
