City of Pleasanton—Stoneridge Mall Residential Project CEQA Checklist Section 15183 Checklist/15164 Addendum 64 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 Embarcadero Court, Stoneridge Mall Road and Mc Williams Lane, Stoneridge Mall Road and 5526 Springdale Avenue) that serve Bus Route 3 and 53, all located within 1,000 feet of the project site, which would encourage future residents and employees at the project site to use the transit, pedestrian, and bicycle facilities in the vicinity of the proposed project. Additionally, as shown in Table 2 above, the proposed project would incorporate several 2017 Clean Air Plan control measures as project design features, such as complying with energy efficiency standards contained in the current version of the California Building Standards Code (CBC) and maintaining landscaping across the project site. Considering this information, the proposed project would not disrupt or hinder the implementation of any AQP control measures. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Criterion 3. Summary As analyzed above, the proposed project would be consistent with all three criteria. Thus, the proposed project would not conflict with the 2017 Clean Air Plan and would be consistent with the conclusions of the Prior EIR. Therefore, there are no environmental 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) Cumulative Increase of Criteria Pollutants Summary of the Prior EIR Conclusions The Prior EIR found that implementation of the General Plan Amendment and Rezonings would result in increased long-term emissions of criteria pollutants associated with construction activities that could contribute substantially to an air quality violation. However, implementation of Prior EIR MM 4.B-1a would ensure that impacts from emissions such as fugitive dust and other emissions would be less than significant. Therefore, the analysis identified that this impact would be less than significant with mitigation implementation. Analysis of Proposed Project The Prior EIR includes 400 dwelling units built within the Stoneridge Mall. The proposed project includes 360 dwelling units. Therefore, the proposed project’s criteria pollutant emissions were accounted for in the Prior EIR. The following analysis is provided to demonstrate consistency with the impact findings included in the Prior EIR. This impact is related to the cumulative effect of a proposed project’s regional criteria pollutant emissions. By its nature, air pollution is largely a cumulative impact resulting from emissions generated over a large geographic region. The nonattainment status of regional pollutants is a result of past and present development within the San Francisco Bay Air Basin (Air Basin), and this regional impact is a cumulative impact. Therefore, new development projects (such as the proposed project) within the Air Basin would contribute to this impact only on a cumulative basis. No single project would be sufficient in size, by itself, to result in nonattainment of regional air quality standards. Instead, a project’s emissions may be individually limited, but cumulatively considerable, when evaluated in combination with past, present, and future development projects.
