Transit route and bus stop coordination with LA VTA CEQA Findine:s and Statement of Overridine: Considerations The CEQA Guidelines require that the lead agency (City of Pleasant on) adopt findings for each significant environmental impact disclosed an EIR. Specifically, for each significant impact, the lead agency must find that: · changes or alterations have been incorporated into the project to avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effects identified in the EIR; · such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and should be adopted by that agency; or · specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other considerations make the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the EIR infeasible. In addition to making a finding for each significant impact, if the lead agency approves a project without mitigating all of the significant impacts, it must prepare a "statement of overriding considerations," in which it balances the benefits of the project against the unavoidable environmental risks. The statement of overriding considerations must explain the social, economic, or other reasons for approving the project despite its environmental impacts. The draft resolution recommending approval of the Phase II Specific Plan also contains the detailed environmental findings and statement of overriding considerations required by CEQA. As discussed in the Draft EIR, a statement of overriding considerations is recommended for impacts relating to the loss of agricultural land resulting from development of the Bernal Property, and the traffic level of service at the Bernal Avenue/I-680 southbound on-ramp and at the Hopyard Road/Owens Drive intersection.
