project on the November 2016 ballot asking the voters to determine whether retail uses greater
<br /> than 50,000 square feet should be prohibited within the JDEDZ. That initiative was ultimately
<br /> defeated by 63 percent of the voters so as to support the project moving forward. In August
<br /> and September 2017, the City Council discussed financing the transportation improvements
<br /> required to support the JDEDZ and the possibility of phasing future development. In October
<br /> 2017 the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the proposed project
<br /> to the City Council. The City Council certified the SEIR and approved the project in November
<br /> 2017.
<br /> In December 2017, a group of citizens filed a lawsuit challenging the adequacy of the SEIR.
<br /> The group alleged that insufficient information was provided in the SEIR regarding air quality
<br /> effects of the JDEDZ on the Stoneridge Apartment complex, located at 6259 Stoneridge Mall
<br /> Road, across 1-680; and more time should have been provided for public consideration of the
<br /> Economic Impact Analysis, which concluded the new hotels, a Costco, other retail and offices
<br /> would not adversely impact other similar uses that exist in the community.
<br /> At its meeting on September 18, 2018, the City Council voted to rescind the SEIR certification
<br /> and JDEDZ approvals. The City Council also directed staff to conduct additional environmental
<br /> review to address the concerns expressed with the proposed project in the lawsuit and to avoid
<br /> further delays and costly litigation. This supplemental environmental work was completed
<br /> throughout 2019 and was circulated for public comment for 45 days beginning on July 10,
<br /> 2019 and ending on August 23, 2019. The following documents were prepared and circulated
<br /> for public comment (Exhibit D):
<br /> • Supplemental Recirculation Memo (July 2019)
<br /> • Health Risk Assessment (January 2019)
<br /> • Updated Air Quality Analysis (July 2019)
<br /> • Greenhouse Gas Analysis (July 2019)
<br /> • Energy Resources Analysis (July 2019)
<br /> Responses to the public comments were prepared in October and November 2019 as a
<br /> second FSEIR for the proposed project (Exhibit D).
<br /> The JDEDZ and associated documentation is now before the Planning Commission for review
<br /> and recommendation to the City Council for final consideration and action.
