(1) Open Space/Park-like Setting Chapter 2 Project Description The physical framework for the individual uses will be provided by a coordinated system of linked open space and park areas, among which will be planted woodland and meadow areas, restored and recreated channels, vegetated stormwater detention ponds and other wetlands, multi-use trails with rest stops and staging areas, public art, and protected view corridors of the outlying scenic hillsides, The objective of the Specific Plan is to create a visually-integrated whole by placing individual uses at appropriate sites within a network of open spaces, parks, and green linkages, The character of the Specific Plan area will be established by the framework of connected open spaces into which all future development will blend, (2) Potential Land Uses Within the setting just described, a variety of public and quasi-public uses may be consid- ered for development, These uses are identified in Table 1, Appendix B of this EIR provides descriptions of these potential uses, Parking would also be provided,l Table 1 Bernal Property Phase II Specific plan: List of Potential Land Uses 1.

Only the Phase "One" baseball fields project (three diamonds) is planned to proceed initially; all other uses will be developed over the extended time frame of the Specific Plan, During this interim period, vacant portions of the Plan area are to consist of agriculture, open space, and/or other minor temporary uses consistent with the purposes of the Specific Plan, as may be approved by the City Council. The process for future planning of the site is discussed below (f. Planning Process), 1 Most of the parking would be at ground level; approximately 200 subsurface parking spaces are proposed as part of the parking facility adjacent to the potential cultural arts center. 9
