F_illaillg: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project that avoid or substantially lessen the significant effect identified in the Final ErR. Rationale for Finding: Limiting the use of golf course facilities in this manner eliminates the potential for significant golf course-related traffic increases beyond the projections of the EIR. ALTERATION OF LANDSCAPE CHARACTER IMPACT 5A: Land alteration and use of the site would affect views for Pleasanton residents. FEIR page 5-14. Mitis~ation Measure 5-1: Refine the project site plan to include revisions to the water tank access road alignment, Hearst Drive extension, residential subdivision design, and golf course design. FEIR pages 5-10 through 5-12. EiBaiag: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project that would avoid or substantially lessen the significant effect identified in the Final EIR. Rationale for Finding: The m,itigation measures include project revisions that would reduce the alteration of landscape character by concealing or reducing visibility of project improvements. IMPACT 5B: Grading for streets, homesites and the golf course would result in a potentially adverse significant impact, particularly the creation of exposed cut and fill slopes in visually- sensitive areas. Mitismtion Measure 5-3. Revise the current grading plan to include grading techniques which relate to natural land contours, clear sight distances, visual concerns, and protection of trees. FEIR page 5-13. ~: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project that avoid or substantially lessen the significant effect identified in the Final EIR. Rationale for Findin2: The proposed grading restrictions will significantly reduce the amount of grading and consequent visual impact. TREE REMOVAL - VISUAL CONSIDERATIONS IMPACT 5C: A large number of trees would be removed or potentially damaged by proposed grading, with resultant visual impact. FEIR page 5-8.
