SIGNIFICANT CUMULATIVE IMPACTS IDENTIFIED IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT A. Traffic and Circulation 1. Cumulative development in the southeastern Pleasanton area could result in exceedance of the city's adopted environmental capacity on Independence Drive. A condition of approval will be incorporated into the project to reduce the impacts to an insignificant level. 2. Significant impacts from continuing congestion at five intersections in the Downtown area of Pleasanton. The City adopted policy in the Pleasanton General Plan mitigate this impact. 3. Regional traffic increase causing severe congestion on 1-580 and 1-680 backing into the city of Pleasanton. No feasible mitigation measures are available to reduce this impact to a less than significant level. A statement of overriding consideration regarding this issue has already been adopted by the City Council with the PGP EIR. B. Noise Cumulative noise levels generated by cumulative development in the Southeastern Pleasanton area would result in significant noise impact on project homes within approximately 90 feet of the Bernal Avenue centerline, if the sound barrier is not properly designed and on project second floor building facades close to Bernal Avenue (Final EIR, page 9-4l. 1. The Planning commission adopts the conclusions of the FEIR with respect to the significance of noise impact resul ting from proj ect development. 2. Mitigation measures are feasible and will be required as a condition of approval. 3. The mitigation measures incorporated into current project, the additional mitigation measures discussed and set forth on the FEIR, and mitigation measures which will be imposed upon future project approvals, have substantially reduced or will reduce the level of noise exposure outside the one-story homes to be built in the 60 dB noise contour so that noise levels meet the General Plan Noise
