unnecessary because the mitigation measures which <br /> have been incorporated into the Project <br /> substantially lessen the effect. <br /> <br /> c.4 Fact. See Section XII (infeasibility of <br /> alternatives) and Section V (Noise Mitigation). <br /> <br />D. Significant Effect. Increased pressure for development <br /> on transitional commercial areas to the east of the <br /> Project in the vicinity of Old Santa Rita Road. <br /> <br /> d.1 Finding. Private and/or public redevelopment and <br /> packaging of parcels can lessen the effect. <br /> <br /> d.2 Fact. City zoning regulations and design review <br /> procedures require development complementary to its <br /> surroundings. Large, developable parcels have been <br /> created through private packaging of marginal-sized <br /> parcels. <br /> <br /> d.3 Finding. The No Project Alternative, which could <br /> partially mitigate the significant effect, is <br /> infeasible. <br /> <br /> d.4 Fact. See Section XII (infeasibility of the No <br /> Project Alternative)- <br /> <br />E. Significant Effect. Demand for higher densities and <br /> development multiple-family residential lands to the <br /> east of the Project. <br /> <br /> e.1 Finding. Local zoning and growth management <br /> procedures will substantially lessen significant <br /> effects. <br /> <br /> e.2 Fact. Rezoning and a General Plan Amendment <br /> allowing for higher density on a case-by-case basis <br /> will lessen the housing demand and will reduce the <br /> overall demand. <br /> <br /> e.3 Finding. Local housing economics will not support <br /> densities greater than presently allowed. <br /> <br /> e.4 Fact. Developers have refused City offered higher <br /> densities, preferring to build at traditional <br /> suburban apartment densities. <br /> <br /> e.5 Finding- The No Project Alternative, which could <br /> partially mitigate the significant effect, is <br /> infeasible. <br /> <br /> e.6 Fact. See Section XII (infeasibility of the No <br /> Project Alternative). <br /> <br /> - 2 - <br /> <br /> <br />
