Exhibit 6-5 <br />MITIGATION MONITORING AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN <br />PUD-33, OAK GROVE DEVELOPMENT/LIN PROPERTY <br />September 4, 2007 <br />INTRODUCTION <br />The Oak Grove Planned Unit Development (PUD-33) is a residential/open space devel- <br />opment on a portion of a 562-acre site located in south Pleasanton. The City is the lead <br />agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has prepared an Envi- <br />ronmental Impact Report (EIR) for this project. <br />The original project addressed by the Final EIR was a 98-unit subdivision; one transporta- <br />tion alternative and three land use altematives were also addressed. The City selected <br />"Alternative 4," one of the land use alternatives, as the project to be considered for ap- <br />proval. Alternative 4, which the Final EIR identifies as the "Environmentally SuperiorAlter- <br />native" (DEIR pp. S15-16), is a 51-unit subdivision on approximately 66.73 acres (77.13 <br />acres including streets, drives, and graded areas) with 496 acres set aside as permanent <br />open space dedicated to the City. The EIR found that this altemative would have generally <br />the same types of CEQA impacts as the original project but that this alternative's pre- <br />mitigation impacts would be reduced in comparison to the original project, as a result of the <br />diminished number of lots, or changes in the project's development footprint, or both. <br />When a lead agency approves a project that it has found to have the potential to result in <br />one or more significant impacts, it adopts mitigation measures in the form of changes or <br />alterations incorporated into the project that would avoid or substantially lessen those im- <br />pacts. Generally, the mitigation measures are put into effect by enforcement of permit <br />conditions, agreements, or other instruments. In the case of Oak Grove, for impacts of the <br />original project that would remain significant under Alternative 4, the mitigation measures <br />and implementation mechanisms parallel those of the original project. <br />The lead agency is required by Califomia law (Public Resources Code Section 21081.6) to <br />adopt a reporting or monitoring program to ensure that the mitigation measures are im- <br />plemented. Monitoring provides for ongoing project oversight to ensue that project com- <br />pliance is checked on a regular basis during (and, if necessary, continuing after) compli- <br />ance. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15097(c>). <br />The Mitigation Monitoring and Implementation Plan (MMIP) presented in the following ta- <br />ble addresses the specific topic areas discussed in the environmental impact report for this <br />project. Each mitigation measure is identified and the location of the full discussion of the <br />Page 1 of 16 <br />
