5. Loss of Burrowing Owl and Its Habitat (DE/R, pp. 107, 116-117 and 359/360; Condition 10 of PUD-33; MM/P D5). a. Potentiallmpact. The Original Project's potential impacts on burrowing owl due to disturbance of potential burrowing owl nesting and habitat sites are discussed in the DEIR at page 107 and the Environmentally Superior Project's impacts are discussed at page 360. b. Mitigation Measures. The following mitigation measure is hereby adopted and will be implemented as provided for in the Mitigation Monitoring and Implementation Program: Implement Oak Grove Planned Unit Development (PUD-33) Mitigation Measure D5. c. Findings. Based on the EIR and the entire record before the City, the City finds that: (i) Effects of Mitigation. • The Environmentally Superior Project's potential impacts related to the loss of burrowing owl and its habitat will be mitigated to less-than-significant levels through the implementation of apre-construction burrowing owl survey 30 days before site grading begins and the avoidance of all surveyed, active owl burrows to the extent practical. If avoidance is impractical, the creation and preservation of burrowing owl habitat at on- and/or off-site locations will be implemented. Mitigation habitat must be in kind to the lost habitat, with no net loss of function, and created at a location approved by the California Department of Fish and Game. • This condition shall cover the development and/or the individual building sites. (ii) Remaining Impacts. Any remaining impacts related to impacts to burrowing owl habitat will be less than significant. Exhibit A Page 19 of 45 Ordinance No. 1961 PUD-33, Oak Grove
