City of Pleasanton—Stoneridge Mall Residential Project <br />CEQA Checklist Section 15183 Checklist/15164 Addendum <br /> <br /> <br />56 FirstCarbon Solutions <br />Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480017/Consistency Checklist/21480017 Stoneridge Mall Residential Project Checklist <br />Addendum_Updated.docx <br />Neither the PUD–Mixed -Use land use designation nor zoning district allow for agricultural uses. <br />There are no active agricultural uses at the site. Therefore, the proposed project would not conflict <br />with existing zoning for agricultural use. Additionally, the project site is not identified as having a <br />Williamson Act Contract.26 Impacts would continue to be less than significant, and no mitigation is <br />necessary, consistent with the Prior EIR. There are no proposed changes, new circumstances, or new <br />information that would cause new or more severe impacts. <br />The proposed project would not result in any impacts. Therefore, there are no environmental effects <br />that are peculiar to the proposed project or the parcels on which the proposed project would be <br />located. Because there would be no impacts, the proposed project would not result in a new or <br />more severe adverse impact that was not previously identified in the Prior EIR. <br />c, d) Forest Zoning and Conversion of Forest Land <br />Prior EIR Conclusions <br />As discussed above, the Prior EIR found that most of the City is located on developed urban land. In <br />addition, the General Plan and Zoning maps designate the project site as PUD – Mixed-Use, which <br />does not allow for forest or agricultural uses. Therefore, the Prior EIR concluded that there would be <br />no significant impact on forest resources. <br />Analysis of Proposed Project <br />As previously discussed, the project site is zoned as PUD – Mixed -Use, which does not allow for <br />forestry or timberland production. This precludes the proposed project from conflicting with zoning <br />for forest land or timberland or resulting in the loss of forest land. Impacts would continue to be less <br />than significant, and no mitigation is necessary, consistent with the Prior EIR. There are no proposed <br />changes, new circumstances, or new information that would cause new or more severe impacts. <br />The proposed project would not result in any impacts. Therefore, there are no environmental effects <br />that are peculiar to the proposed project or the parcels on which the proposed project would be <br />located. Because there would be no impacts, the proposed project would not result in a new or <br />more severe adverse impact that was not previously identified in the Prior EIR. <br />d) Pressures to Convert Farmland or Forest Land <br />Prior EIR Conclusions <br />As discussed above, the Prior EIR found that most of the City is located on developed urban land. In <br />addition, the Prior EIR found that the Housing Element would not involve other changes in the <br />existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of farmland to <br />nonagricultural use, or conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Therefore, the Prior EIR <br />concluded that there would be no significant impact on farmland and forest land. <br /> <br />26 City of Pleasanton. 2009.
