within their jurisdictions that contribute considerably to traffic occurring <br />within the City of Pleasanton. The strategy also may allocate mitigation <br />responsibility to each jurisdiction for improvements within its jurisdiction on <br />the understanding that each jurisdiction will be addressing the cumulative <br />contributions from projects in neighboring jurisdictions. <br />If a mutually agreeable strategy cannot be reached with the City of <br />Livermore, City of Dublin and Alameda County, or any one of them, then the <br />City of Pleasanton will not require the contribution of mitigations for <br />contributions to impacts in any other jurisdiction unwilling to agree to <br />reciprocity within the City of Pleasanton. This is because, under such <br />circumstances, the City could not be assured that projects it approves are <br />being assessed for mitigation only in proportion to their impact and because <br />the City may need to require reallocation of the mitigation contribution to <br />intersections and roadway segments within Pleasanton itself, lacking <br />assurance of mitigation funding from projects that may be approved by other <br />jurisdictions. In the event that a mutually agreed upon strategy is not <br />reached, then mitigation of the Project's contribution to the impacted <br />intersection or roadway segment would be infeasible, and the impact would <br />be considered significant and unavoidable. <br />Based on this cooperative agreement, the project developer will pay its <br />share of costs of improvements in question in proportion to the benefits <br />received. The fair share costs will be contributed to the local agency that <br />has entered into an agreement with the City of Pleasanton when the local <br />agency is ready to implement the improvements at issue, provided the <br />aforementioned strategy has been mutually agreed upon by the City of <br />Pleasanton and such other local agency. <br />If a mutually agreeable strategy is reached, the project developer will <br />provide for its share of the improvements in question prior to the issuance of <br />a building permit for its project. Since the improvements may not be <br />constructed for several years, the provision shall include an inflationary <br />provision, as determined by the City Engineer. The total amount of the <br />provision, the share of improvements plus the inflationary provision, shall be <br />determined by the City Engineer. <br />18. Archaeological Resources. Prior to the issuance of a grading permit or <br />building permit for the project, the project developer shall retain the services <br />of a qualified archaeological consultant having expertise in California <br />prehistoric archaeology. The archaeological consultant shall determine if <br />planned development could potentially impact important archaeological <br />resources and shall then design an appropriate archaeological monitoring <br />program. Upon completing the archaeological monitoring program, the <br />archaeological consultant shall submit a written report of findings first and <br />15 <br />
