City of Pleasanton—Stoneridge Mall Residential Project CEQA Checklist Section 15183 Checklist/15164 Addendum 178 FirstCarbon Solutions Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480017/Consistency Checklist/21480017 Stoneridge Mall Residential Project Checklist Addendum_Updated.docx would increase pervious surfaces on the project site and would therefore decrease the amount of runoff into the existing storm drainage system. Impacts would continue to be less than significant, and no mitigation is necessary, consistent with the Prior EIR. There are no proposed changes, new circumstances, or new information that would cause new or more severe impacts. Natural Gas and Electricity The Prior EIR did not evaluate whether the Housing Element would require or result in the relocation or construction of new natural gas, electricity, and telecommunications facilities, the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental effects. This Appendix G Checklist question and the City’s thresholds of significance have been updated since the time the Prior EIR was certified to include evaluation of natural gas, electricity, and telecommunications facilities. The proposed project would not include natural gas connection or facilities. The building would be required to be all electric per the City’s local building codes.110 Electricity infrastructure would be provided by PG&E. The City adopted the EBCE Community Choice Aggregation Program in 2021, meaning EBCE would be the proposed project’s electricity provider. There are existing underground electrical lines on the northern boundary of the project site which would be removed and replaced in the same locations by the proposed project, resulting in no functional change to the electrical infrastructure. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, there are no utility effects that are peculiar to the proposed project or the parcels on which the proposed project would be located. Impacts would be less than significant and the proposed project would not result in a new or more severe adverse impact that was not previously identified in the Prior EIR. b) Water Supply Prior EIR Conclusions As discussed above, the Prior EIR assesses whether the Zone 7 Water Agency would have adequate water supplies for the City at buildout. Zone 7 estimated future water demand for Zone 7’s service area, considering future developments within each district, including Pleasanton’s General Plan. The Prior EIR determined that Zone 7 would meet the City’s Housing Element buildout demand (675.6 acre-feet per year), that the existing water supply would provide sufficient water supply capacity, and that Zone 7 would provide verification of adequate water supplies for subsequent projects, as stated under MM 4.L-2. The Prior EIR concluded that implementation of General Plan policies and actions would further reduce water consumption within the City by promoting water conservation methods. Therefore, as indicated in the Prior EIR, the City would have adequate water supply, including existing and additional supply, to meet planned future development demands associated with the Housing Element. 110 East Bay Community Energy (EBCE). 2022.
