Hacienda Mixed Use Rezoning Initial Study <br /> Environmental Setting <br /> The three project sites are located within Hacienda, a developed business park with some residential <br /> land uses, designated on the General Plan land use map as Mixed Use /Business Park. Currently all <br /> three sites are vacant with ruderal (weedy) vegetation. <br /> Significance Criteria <br /> The impact questions above constitute the significance criteria for this environmental topic. <br /> Discussion of Checklist Items <br /> Less than Significant Impact. To change the zoning designation to allow residential and retail land uses <br /> would not conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of <br /> avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect. Thus the project would result in a less than significant <br /> land -use effect. <br /> No Impact. Development due to the proposed rezoning would be infill development in an established <br /> business and residential park thus it would not disrupt or divide an established community. No habitat <br /> conservation plan is applicable in this developed area. <br /> Less Than <br /> Potentially Significant with Less Than No <br /> Significant Mitigation Significant Impact <br /> Impact Incorporation Impact <br /> 10. Mineral Resources Would the project: <br /> a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral X <br /> resource that would be of value to the region and the <br /> residents of the state? <br /> b) Result in the Loss of availability of a locally- important <br /> mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general X <br /> plan, specific plan or other land use plan? <br /> Environmental Setting <br /> No mineral resources that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state are known to <br /> occur in the project vicinity. <br /> Significance Criteria <br /> The impact questions above constitute the significance criteria for this environmental topic. <br /> Discussion of Checklist Items <br /> No Impact. The project sites are not within the mapped mineral resources zone. Several gravel quarries <br /> that are designated Aggregate Resource Areas in the City's General Plan are located on El Charro Road <br /> more than 2 miles east of the project sites. The project would not result in the loss of those mineral <br /> resource areas. <br /> Draft, Subject to Revision 19 8/31/2009 <br />
