The Project includes the payment of the proposed Project's proportionate share of the cost of improving Dougherty Road. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, the City Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 93-018, A RESOLUTION ADOPTING A MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM FOR THE NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR PA 93-017 ALLSAFE SELF STORAGE TENTATIVE MAP/SITE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW/CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE approved on May 25, 1993 to provide for the implementation of a mitigation monitoring program covering the project. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.1 and Section 15063 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Title 14, California Administrative Code), an initial study dated April 30, 1993 (the "Initial Study"), was prepared to determine whether there are effects on the environment peculiar to the proposed Project. 50 The Initial Study, based in part on a April 16, 1993 memorandum and traffic study generated by Mehran Sepehri, Senior Civil Engineer of the Dublin Public Works Department (the "Traffic Report"), identified the following effects on the environment as being peculiar to the proposed Project: Reduction of the level of service on Dougherty Road between 1-580 and the northerly City Limits. The Initial Study indicated that the significant environmental effects listed in paragraph 5 could be mitigated by widening Dougherty Road and by installing a traffic signal at the intersection of Dougherty Road and Sierra Lane and related improvements. The proposed Project has been modified to require payment by the Applicant of its proportionate share of the costs of mitigating the effects described in paragraph 5 above (the "traffic mitigation measure"). Based on the information contained in the Traffic Report, the Initial Study and the May 25, 1993 Staff Report (the "Staff Report") all of which are incorporated herein by this reference, a Mitigated Negative Declaration, incorporating the traffic mitigation measures, was prepared for the proposed Project. Notice of the Mitigated Negative Declaration was duly given prior to the Planning Commission hearing on May 25, 1993. The Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on the proposed Project on May 25, 1993, at which time the Planning Commission took testimony from interested persons regarding the proposed Project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Dublin Planning Commission does hereby resolve that: The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are made a part hereof. The Planning Commission finds, on the basis of the record before it and the foregoing Recitals, (1) that feasible mitigation measures, including without limitation the traffic mitigation measures, have been incorporated into the Project to mitigate the significant environmental effects identified in paragraph 5 above; (2) that such mitigation measures will eliminate or reduce to a level of insignificance the significant environmental effects identified in paragraph 5; and (3) that uniformly applied development policies or standards will not mitigate the significant environmental effects identified in paragraph 5 above. -2- The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all comments received during the public comment period and all testimony at the public hearing. The Planning Commission hereby finds that there is no substantial evidence that the Project, as modified to incorporate the traffic mitigation measures, will have a significant effect on the environment and approves the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
