Draft Environmental Impact Report Bernal Property Phase II Specific Plan EIR Chapter 3: Chapter 4: Chapter 5: Chapter 6: Chapter 7: Chapter 8: The Land Use Element presents the Phase II Plan vision; describes the land use program and potential locations of a variety of public and quasi-public uses; and presents the land use objectives, policies, and guidelines, The Grand Park Design Element presents the design background and concept for guiding the overall character of the Phase II Plan Area and presents the Grand Park objectives, policies and guidelines, The Transportation Element presents the traffic and trail circulation planning concepts, and the pertinent objectives, policies and guidelines for automobile and non-automobile provisions of the Plan (trails, bikeways, and accommodation of transit), The Public Facilities Element presents the public facilities and services planning concepts, and the pertinent objectives, policies and guidelines, The Conservation and Environmental Mitigation Element presents the objectives, policies and guidelines for the protection and conservation of natural resources and measures to mitigate otherwise potential adverse environmental conditions relating to noise, wetlands and biological resources, flooding, seismic and geologic safety, air quality, cultural resources, hazardous materials, and visual resources, Future Project Planning Process outlines the comprehensive public process by which the future Phase II public and quasi-public projects are to be planned and approved, c. Planning Vision General direction for the character and the types of land uses appropriate for the site is provided in the Land Use Element of the Phase II Specific Plan: The overall visual image is one of an open space/park-like setting within which public and quasi-public uses and facilities are to be carefully integrated, The unifying landscape character is to become one of a grand open space arboretum, with agriculture at first, then evolving into wooded and meadow areas over time, , , , Buildings, other structures, and open areas are to blend together into a unified and visually appealing setting. Consistent with this vision, open space is to be "the underlying use within which all future development is to be integrated." d. Potential Land Uses and Sites The array of potential land uses and the delineation of potentially appropriate sites for the chosen uses reflect the key land use objective of the Phase II Specific Plan: to create an open space/park-like setting within which future public and quasi-public uses are to be sensitively integrated, These three elements - the open space/park-like setting, the potential uses, and sites appropriate to the setting and the uses - are discussed below, 8
