Environmental Analysis The environmental analysis for the proposed project uses current and historical documented information for the site and surrounding area; from the plans, technical reports and analyses prepared for the proposed development application of this site by the applicant's consultants; and by the analyses prepared for the proposed development by City- retained consultants. The previous CEQA document that analyzed the development of the Pleasanton Gateway property as part of the overall Bernal Property development include the Final Environmental Impact Report for the San Francisco Water District Property (California State Clearinghouse No. 96- 013005), dated March 1999, prepared by Mundie & Associates and the City of Pleasanton In accordance with CEQA Section 15070, the City conducted Initial Study resulted in mitigation programs for the project that reduced the effects of the proposed development including mitigation measures to a less -than- significant level. This reduction was achieved by a combination of the following: • The revisions made to the project plans and /or agreed to as conditions of approval by the applicant resulting from the analyses, implemented with subsequent City approvals and /or project construction, will avoid or mitigate the effects of development, and, • There is no substantial evidence in light of the entire record before the City of Pleasanton including CEQA that the project as now revised and proposed would have a significant effect on the environment. The mitigation measures are put into effect by the revised project plans and /or by the enforcement of permit conditions, agreements, or other instruments.
