RESOLUTION OFFICIALLY PROTESTING SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY'S ILLEGAL OFFSET OF COUNTY BOOKING FEE CHARGES AGAINST CITY PROPERTY TAX AND OTHER REVENUES PUBLIC COMMENT Barbara Pfennighausen , 22111 Ladera, Grand Terrace, commented that during the 1990 election campaign, candidates for public office readily indicated their willingness, once elected, to assist citizens with problems. She stated, however, that she was speaking on behalf of a handicapped and ill citizen who could not contact a Councilmember because that Councilmember changed his phone number to an unlisted number and is not available at the City Hall , his place of employment, or on weekends. Ms. Pfennighausen mentioned that all Councilmembers previously published their names and phone numbers in the Chamber newsletter and expressed her desire that the practice be reinstated. She stated that approximately 50% of the Little League members are from the City but noted that no one from the Council or Staff attended the Opening Ceremonies although many representatives from the City of Colton were in attendance. She asserted that that represented a Council and Staff duty and added that they were invited. She indicated that the Southern California Joint Powers Insurance Authority has been wrongfully drawn into litigation involving two individuals in the City and expressed her feeling that the claim was being unjustly defended at the expense of the public, the SCJPIA Board, and the Councils of all cities that participate in SCJPIA.

He inquired as to whether the new billboard on the west side of the 1-215 freeway, which promotes the City of Colton , is located in Grand Terrace or Colton. He suggested that the City Attorney contact the City of Colton regarding the method of handling the billboard situation. He questioned the validity of calling Atlanta to regulate the thermostat in City Hall . City Manager Schwab, indicated that the City would need to contact Cal Trans, District 8, in order to change the freeway signs, indicating that he would place the request. He stated that if Cal Trans does not respond to the request in a timely manner, the City will locate a vendor to obtain the lettering and will make the necessary corrections. He remarked that the billboard in question is located in Colton and related that the billboard was illegally erected and that two faces of the billboard were granted to Colton as a condition of the settlement of the lawsuit which the City of Colton brought against the billboard company. He stated that two years ago the City purchased the Honeywell Energy Management System in order to save on utility and maintenance costs. He explained that groups using the Meeting Room often left the thermostat at a very low setting over weekends but remarked that the thermostat can no longer be operated from the site, adding that City Staff call Atlanta to let Honeywell know when the system should be in operation. City Attorney Harper, stated that no court date has been set for the billboard litigation but commented that most billboard companies are willing to compromise on the matter.

Councilmember Christianson, thanked the judges of the Miss Grand Terrace Pageant and commented that he will be out of state for the upcoming Council meeting. He stated for the record that he did not mind missing the meeting if the remainder of the Council wished to hold the meeting, indicating that his intention was merely to inform them of his planned absence.

He added that if a Special Meeting had to be called, the Council would still have a quorum. It was the consensus of Council to cancel the May 9, 1991 City Council Meeting after learning that Mayor Matteson and Councilmember Christianson will be unable to attend. Barbara Pfennighausen, 22111 Ladera, Grand Terrace, expressed dissatisfaction with the cancellation of the May 9, 1991 City Council meeting and questioned how the Council could know that nothing of importance would be requested to be placed on the Agenda prior to the meeting of May 9, 1991.

In order to serve future population of this sixe a minimum of 58 acres of local parkland should be made available to City residents . Toward accomplishing this objec- tive the City should plan, for the future, an additional ten to twenty acres for new permanent parksites over and above the lands we now have in order to meet the projected demand.

Mr Stobaugh, General Manager of Inland Milling, and I spent considerable time checking tc see if this equipment could be located in another location on the property. It was determined that the only workable location is where we have scheduled installation. If you swing an arc from the corner residence, this unit only comes 15 feet closer than the approximate distance of 400 feet where it is now. I would like to stress again that the blower system only generdtes a very small percentage of the noire from the mill operations . The majority of the noise comes from the mill machinery used to remanufacture lumber. With this new system, 3t could be set withla 50 feet of Lhe corner house and they would not have any dust from the unit which they now have The noisc level wr1l r.,.,t be any difterA,nt than it is now.

He said that the 12 explosion venting will be noted on the drawing Chairman Hawkinson asked if the manufacturer had any literature to shed light on the decibel readings Mr Wheeler stated that they all vary and it depends on the location and the area they go into, but it could be obtained as soon as the equipment is installed Commissioner Sims asked why they chose the location Mr Wheeler stated they are usually installed close to the building, but the new equipment would have to be installed while the existing equipment is still operating so they don't have to shut down for two to three weeks He said the only other location is where the septic tank is now located, stating that the septic tank does not take care of the office, but it handles a lavatory out >n the null He said the only location left was on the other side of the railroad tracks as they have to run forklifts to unload the cars Commissioner Van Gelder asked if the City has ever tested the decibel level of the facility, to which the Community Development Director responded in the negative Commissioner Van Gelder asked if they were on the sewer system Mr Wheeler felt the office was probably on the sewer system, but the restroom for the mill is on the septic system. Commissioner Hargrave asked the cost of the new system Mr Wheeler said approximately $75,000 Commissioner Hargrave asked the difference in height of the new and existing collectors Mr Wheeler stated that the new one is probably 10' higher Commissioner Hargrave asked if the workers who work around the collector are required to wear ear protection Mr Wheeler stated that all mills have this requirement Vice-Chairman Buchanan asked the current hours of operation, and if there was any reason why the dust collector couldn't be operated within defined 13 hours of operation Mr Wheeler stated that they would want to operate within any legal time for operations, but if they have an excess of work, they would probably want to run a longer shift than an eight hour day Vice-Chairman Buchanan asked if the dust collection system needs to operate simultaneous and in conjunction with the operation of the mill, to which Mr Wheeler responded in the affirmative 9 00 P M OPENED PUBLIC HEARING CHESTER EASTER 21963 TANAGER STREET GT Mr Easter said he moved to Tanager Street in 1973, and he kept documentation and gone to City Council several times with regard to various issues with the lumber company He said that he is one of the proponents of the current noise ordinance for the City and most of the wording is a result of his input He said the hours of operation since 1973 have varied from 5 30 a in to 12 00 a m, and once they operated until 3 00 a m He said they do not do this continuously as it depends upon their work load He said that the Noise Ordinance states there should be no noise between 10 00 p m and 7 00 a m He said the reason for the height being 60+ feet on the new facility is so they can clear the incoming railroad ears He said they had a problem with the dust over the years and have complained, and the fine dust is a problem He said that it is good for the soil and fertilizes the lawns He said he welcomes this proposal, but he has a problem with the location, as it will be moved 55-60' north of the existing structure, which will put it more in line with an easterly direction of the corner residence at the end of Royal Street He said that another problem with noise is with the trucks that come in and take the sawdust away, as they come and go whenever they please He said he would like to see the site remain where it is Mr Easter said he called Inland Lumber, which is actually Thompson Equities, and he spoke with Tom Thompson's secretary who said that they are not the ones applying for this, but that it is Inland Timber Mr Easter said that in 1977 or 1978, the sewers were put in, and he doesn't believe the office was attached to that He said that 6 or 7 years ago, they had the County of San Bernardino put a decibel meter m his backyard to read the decibels coming from the mill, and Inland Lumber Co and Inland Timber Co were notified that this was taking place and for the 24-48 hours the meter 14 was in his backyard, the mill did not operate He said that he noticed the employees were not wearing ear protectors at the mill, so he called OSHA, who went to the mill and took readings and wrote them up for not having ear protectors for their employees He said that this was 5-6 years ago and this was the last time OSHA was there He said that Air Quality Control has been called many times because of the sawdust problem 9 10 P M CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING Chairman Hawkinson brought this item back to the commission Commissioner Van Gelder felt they need to consider the citizens who live close to the facility She expressed concern about the septic tank and the decibel level Commissioner Sims did not feel it needed to move closer to the residential areas He felt there was a way the new collector could be installed closer to the existing one Vice-Chairman Buchanan felt the decibel readings should be taken to make sure it is not noisier than the existing collector Commissioner Van Gelder asked for clarification regarding the concern about the septic tank The Assistant Planner stated that the applicant said that the present site where the existing filter collector is located is on a septic tank location area, and the engineer expressed concern, but did not formall7e or go into detail Vice-Chairman Buchanan felt they had an insufficient amount of information to make a decision as they don't know where the septic tank is that seems to be interfering and staff has not been provided with documentation regarding the sound level He suggested continuing the item so the applicant could return with an alternative location plan or some definitive documentation of why there isn't an alternative as well as some documentation regarding this type of operation and sound levels that it generates He also asked that the applicant come back with some comment regarding hours of operation MOTION PCM-91-49 CUP-91-02 Vice-Chairman Buchanan made a motion to continue CUP-91-02 to the March 21, 1991 Planning Commission Meeting 15 Chairman Hawkinson concurred, Stating that there is no reason it couldn't go on its present site He felt they should obtain decibel information but felt it could be done at the staff level He did not agree with the proposed location Commissioner Munson was against shutting down the mill for the employees' sake He did concur that the item should be continued Commissioner Sims agreed they shouldn't shut down the mill Commissioner Munson second MOTION VOTE PCM-91-49 Motion carries 7-0-0-0 Chairman Hawkinson stated that the applicant needs to be aware that they are looking for some

MFG. OF SO. CAL 21850 MAIN STREET GT AN APPLICATION FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A DUST COLLECTOR FOR AN EXISTING LUMBER COMPANY 2 The Acting Community Development Director presented the staff report Chairman Hawkinson called up the applicant ROBERT WHEELER 15305 MANILLA FONTANA Mr Wheeler stated that the ownership of Inland Lumber has changed in the last few years, and the new owners are making major changes, including repaving their yard He said the new system will eliminate the dust problem He said there was a company in the yard called "Modern Materials" driving trucks in and out, and they are no longer there Commissioner Sims asked where the noise test was conducted Mr Wheeler said it was done at the corner of the 1st residence at the fencehne Commissioner Hargrave asked if the new dust collector was to be put at the new site or the current site Mr Wheeler said it would be located across the railroad tracks He said they only move about 15' closer to the property Commissioner Hargrave asked if the restroom was hooked up to the sewer Mr Wheeler said the mill area restroom is hooked up to a septic tank and the office is on sewer Vice-Chairman Buchanan asked if he would have a problem if they made the hours from 7 a m to 10 p m a condition of the conditional use permit Mr Wheeler said he would not have a problem with this Chairman Hawkinson was in favor of the new system, but asked for justification as to the relocation of the system Mr Wheeler said that to shut down for 3 weeks would stifle them and they would probably lose a lot of customers He said they have to be able to feed the mill Commissioner Van Gelder asked if it would be a detriment if they asked that the facility was to shut down at 8 00 p m or 9 00 p m 3 Mr Wheeler stated this has been their allowable hours of work, and felt they would want to retain that in case of an emergency 7 17 P M OPENED PUBLIC HEARING CHESTER EASTER 21963 TANAGER STREET GT Mr Easter stated that the City mhented the problem from the County, stating that the residential area was designed and implemented before Inland Timber He said that when the lumber company was built, there was an advisory board called MAC, and the gentleman who owned the property where this was being built, including the tract that he hved in, was on the committee He stated that the decibels were read at the corner of Mr Butterfield's property He said that they are at the top end of the threshold, and if they allow 60 decibels, they are already 2 decibels over the limit He said that whether it is 15' closer or 1' closer, it should not be allowed He said that there is not a cap on the silo on the collector and the pipe that leads into the silo is not shown He wanted to see the bottom area enclosed to prevent dust from escaping into the air He said that the company did not pave immediately south of the residential walls to the south of the railroad tracks He said that where they are proposing to put the bin is a complete dirt area He said that there are no operations on the extreme south end other than an electrical receptacle, and above that are some power poles with transformers He said that to the east of that, they could put the blower and collector system and would be more centralized He said they could also put it to the west of there, and all they would have to do is move a stack of timbers He said that on Saturday morning, a gentleman cleans the asphalt with a blower, which blows the dirt to the north onto their houses He questioned why they do not use a vacuum DAN BUTTERFIELD 12796 ROYAL AVENUE GT Mr Butterfield said he is the nearest residence to the mill He agreed with Mr Easter and was against the system being moved closer to their homes He said he would like to see them close operations at 8 00 p m as he is in bed by then, and he cannot sleep Mr Wheeler said that the lower portion where the truck backs in will be enclosed and they have a floor sweep in case anything is spilled off the truck He said the decibel level on the blower system is way under 60, and there is 4 a lot of cloth material and filter bags which suppress the noise from the blower system Chairman Hawkinson asked about an alternative location Mr Wheeler stated that the end of the mill the citizens talked about is where all the main power comes into the plant, and no equipment can be put there He said that they service the mill on the sides, so they couldn't put it there Vice-Chairman Buchanan asked for comments regarding the paving of the area Mr Wheeler stated that it is paved where the truck backs in to where the new location of where the bin will be as well as the traffic circulation routes to and from the location Vice-Chairman Buchanan asked how the truck loading area would be enclosed Mr Wheeler said it is a sheet-metal housing 7 35 P M CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING Commissioner Hargrave asked Mr Wheeler to address the bin being next to the cleaner Mr Wheeler said the bin is where the cyclone separator sits on top, and there is a cap that goes on the top of the cyclone separator so there is no emittance He said the air will be piped over to the filter collector, which will take out the dust and let the air out Commissioner Hargrave asked the heights of the two structures Mr Wheeler said one is 60' and the other is 45' Commissioner Hargrave asked if there was just one structure there now Mr Wheeler said there is one structure where there is a bin and they are unloading with a screw-conveyer and are picking that up with a blower and going over to another separator and loading a truck He said that they will not have that extra blower noise with the proposed system Commissioner Hargrave asked if the noise reading was based on the current system 5 Mr Wheeler said that it was, and they were also running the mill Chairman Hawkinson brought this item back to the commission Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated that the neighbors have had a long history of concerns, but if they do not approve this item, the applicant's alternative is to leave it the way it is, which doesn't benefit anyone He said they should clarify the recommendations include it being capped and enclosed as well as including the hours of operation He said he would like to see a condition that all traffic areas be paved within the facility He felt the relocation was not a significant move, and if they say no to the proposed location, the applicant may not put in the new system He said the noisy part of the operation, the mill, is not being moved any closer Commissioner Hargrave asked Mr Butterfield if he had worked in this area before Mr Butterfield said he was the mill superintendent at Inland Lumber and is now running a mill in Orange County Commissioner Hargrave asked if there was a way to mute the sounds from the saws Mr Butterfield said there are many ways He questioned the decibel test as far as how much of the mill was in operation He said that South Bay Lumber Co in Orange County has a planer just like one of the planers at Inland Lumber,which is completely enclosed in a little building He said that when Inland Lumber owned it, they built a wall between the timber sizer and the resaw He said they could put up more walls or baffles up above the machines Commissioner Hargrave asked if encasing the machines was expensive Mr Butterfield said they could build a cheap building around them Commissioner Hargrave felt this was an opportunity to mitigate the noise from the saws Chairman Hawkinson felt the noise from the mill may be outside of the scope of what is being proposed Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated he was not comfortable with expanding the scope of their inquiry that far, not that he didn't feel it was unlawful, but historically, the City has been careful about this scope of inquiry 6 Commissioner Sims stated that his original concern was the decibel level, and one of the conditions was to take readings, and there is no way to take readings of the proposed system until it is up He asked if the test was done by the applicant The Acting Community Development Director stated that it was ordered by the applicant Vice-Chairman Buchanan said that staff's conditions stated that prior to the issuance of building permits for the new dust bin/filter collector, evidence must be submitted to the Planning Department reflecting acceptable noise levels for this district He said that his concern was that the dust bin/filter collector was not going to generate excessive noise He felt this would be done through the presentation of literature from the manufacturer of the collector showing the decibel ratings He said there was no discussion about particular existing equipment being modified or removed or tested at that point in time Commissioner Sims stated that there is no gauge He said they are bringing the facility closer to the homes and it is not fair to increase the decibel level Vice-Chairman Buchanan said they were looking for evidence that this new construction would not increase the noise level He stated that if they deny the project, they will have the same sound problem as well as the same dust problem He felt they should allow them to construct the new dust collector, and perhaps they do not change the noise level, but at least the dust problem is reduced He said the biggest concern is that the new system should not generate any more noise than is already there, and he felt it would be quieter Commissioner Sims said he hasn't heard anything from the applicant that he can't move it Vice-Chairman Buchanan said that the farther it is from the mill, the more overhead pipe they need to have The Acting Community Development Director suggested making a condition that the new dust bin filter facility does not enut any higher decibel levels either than the existing one, or put a range that is presented in the study itself Chairman Hawkinson felt this issue is the dust collector, not the rest of the mill operation He said that they needed to take a reading to have a benchmark for comparing the new one 7 Commissioner Van Gelder said that now is the time to do something about the mill, so she would like to continue this item until the city attorney can be present to advise them as to their scope Commissioner Hargrave stated that he would go along with a continuance, but they do have a broad scope, and they need to either take the initiative or not He asked if at Site and Architectural Review, if the Chairman would be willing to consider some mitigation measures Chairman Hawkinson stated that at Site and Architectural, they would be talking about the specific location and the design He said that based on testimony, it sounds like the proposed system is of far superior design than the existing system Vice-Chairman Buchanan said that the physical location of the unit is as much a part of the conditional use permit as the site and architectural portion, and for the most part, things are overlapping, and they normally treat them as co- extensive issues, so that the conditional use permit has the same set of conditions as the site and architectural approval does The Acting Community Development Director clarified from the code what the conditional use permit and site and architectural review cover Commissioner Sims suggested going out to the site Vice-Chairman Buchanan said he was comfortable going forward Chairman Hawkinson wasn't sure an on-site inspection would give them more insight, but he felt they should make sure the facility is adequately paved He said he was not convinced that it was justified to relocate the facility Commissioner Hargrave stated that irrespective of where the filter is placed, the mill, which is the noisy part of the operation, isn't moving Chairman Hawkinson said that if this item were continued for an on-site inspection, it would give enough time for staff to contact the City Attorney Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated that regarding the location of the dust collector, they haven't heard justification for the proposed location, however, he wasn't sure their explanation isn't sufficient He didn't feel the dust collector itself is significant enough to warrant an on-site inspection Commissioner Hargrave stated the conditional use permit is one of the few methods they have to mitigate this problem 8 Commissioner Van Gelder questioned whether they had the authority to request that the decibel level be changed Commissioner Munson said he was under the impression that the City has a noise ordinance, and if obligations are not fulfilled, they would be fined or closed down He felt the proposed dust collector is better than the existing one, and stated that he sees no reason for an on-site inspection Commmssioner Van Gelder stated that the City mherited the situation from the County and according to David Sawyer, the decibel level had never been checked Chairman Hawkinson stated that he wasn't sure of the date, but he knows they took readings there because of the noise ordinance He felt the scope needs to be limited to the dust collector, stating he felt uncomfortable broadening the scope without the City Attorney's opinion He said he would be receptive to a motion to continue this item to the next meeting and perhaps continue it to a workshop session at the facility if the applicant did not have a problem with this The Acting Commumty Development Director stated that staff would make contact with the City Attorney and make arrangements with the applicant MOTION PCM-91-83 CUP-91-02 Commissioner Hargrave made a motion to continue CUP-91-02 to the next Planning Commission Meeting with a workshop session to take place at the facility Commissioner Sims second Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated that if any of the commissioners feel they could act on this favorably tonight, they should vote no on the continuance, and they could move forward on specific conditions and vote Chairman Hawkinson stated that the collector is a good thing, but he has not been convinced of the proposed location Commissioner Van Gelder felt they should look at the site Chairman Hawkinson called for the question 9 MOTION VOTE P CM-91-83 Motion fails Commissioners Hargrave, Sims and Van Gelder voted yes Chairman Hawkinson, Vice-Chairman Buchanan and Commissioner Munson voted no Commissioner Wright absent 829PM TO839PM - RECESS Chairman Hawkinson called up the applicant He asked for justification of why the dust collector can not be in the same location as the existing one and asked what the merits are for the proposed location Mr Wheeler stated that he did not think they would shut the mill down to put the dust collector in that location Commissioner Sims asked if it could go adjacent to it Mr Wheeler said there is a restroom to the right of the mill and there is a septic tank to the left side, so they would have to go out to the edges of the mill, which would interfere with the forklift traffic He said that he has been around mills since he was 14 years old, and he believes this is the right location Commissioner Suns asked if the additional piping comes into the picture Mr Wheeler said that it does take more horsepower and they would have to put in a bigger blower, and this would make more noise, however, the blower system is not the real noisemaker in this situation Chairman Hawkinson asked if it was feasible to hook up the restroom to the sewer system Mr Wheeler said it is pretty far from the main line Commissioner Sims asked for the restroom and septic tank to be pointed out on the plans Mr Wheeler indicated this on the plans He said that the blower is the powered unit and has the fan, and it is at the mill and will remain there He said this is where the noise is created Commissioner Sims asked if it was correct that on the sides of the mill there 10 are other facilities that are not depicted on the plans that prevent it from being placed on either side of the mill, to which Mr Wheeler agreed Chairman Hawkinson asked how much of the facility was unpaved Mr Wheeler indicated this on the drawings Chairman Hawkinson asked if the proposed location is approved, would all the area from the mill to the truck area be paved Mr Wheeler said it is paved now Chairman Hawkinson brought the item back to the commission MOTION PCM-91-84 CUP-91-02 Vice-Chairman Buchanan made a motion to

Commissioner Van Gelder asked about deleting Condition 6 Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated that they could delete it, or, as Commissioner Hargrave and Sims were discussing, they could make a condition requiring a limitation on the sound to ensure there is no added noise situation Commissioner Hargrave asked why they originally wanted to pull Condition 6 The Acting Community Development Director stated it was basically to show evidence that those levels were acceptable to the Planning Department, and being that they were presented to the commission, they were making that determination She said if they need to keep it in or rephrase it that would be fine, but she was considering it as being redundant Commissioner Hargrave asked to leave it in as a safety measure Commissioner Sims stated that the intent was to establish the noise as a baseline, and then after they put up the facility, they will need to see what the noise level is to make sure it is not creating more noise He felt it was wise to leave it in Vice-Chairman Buchanan said the condition needs to be reworded if they want to see that the proposed dust collector does not exceed the appropriate levels for this district The Acting Community Development Director asked if they wished to include the testing locations Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated that he was not that concerned with the noise 12 and he wasn't making a motion at this point MOTION PCM-91-87 CUP-91-02 Commissioner Hargrave made a motion to amend Condition 6 to read that the new dust collector shall have a decibel level no greater than what the applicant showed with the present dust collector, and if the Planning Department of Commission doesn't feel this is so, or if the neighbors complain, they can ask for a test based on the same premise, location and situation as the previous test submitted to the Planning Commission in their decision Commissioner Sims second Comnssioner Van Gelder stated that when the test is taken, it depends if everything is running Commissioner Hargrave stated they are only testing the dust collector Vice-Chairman Buchanan stated they can assume that if the dust collector operating by itself exceeds 62 decibels, the applicant has a problem, so he didn't feel it matters what is running on the subsequent test MOTION VOTE PCM-91-87 Motion carries 6-0-1-0 Commissioner Wright absent MOTION PCM-91-88 CUP-91-02 Vice-Chairman Buchanan made a motion that the hours of operation for the facility be limited to commencing at 7 00 a m and concluding at 9 00 p m Commissioner Van Gelder second Chairman Hawkinson asked what the present permitted hours of operation are The Acting Community Development Director said that the applicant had stated 7 00 a m to 10 00 p m , but it wasn't clarified as to what was running Commissioner Munson said the hours of a milling operation are dependent 13 upon the building going on at the time, and historically, summer hours are probably the busiest hours, and this is when they will want to go to 10 00 p m He said they are looking at pocketbooks, and an extra hours and a half of overtime is a good chunk of change for the workers The Acting Community Development Director referred the commission to the letter submitted by the applicant regarding the milling operation hours being from 7 00 a m to 10 00 p m Chairman Hawkinson asked if this would be 7 days a week Mr Wheeler did not know Commissioner Munson stated that the yards that they ship to probably are not open on Sundays, so they can't really work on Sunday Mr Easter said that it operates 7 days a week about 90% of the time MOTION VOTE PCM-91-88 Motion carries 5-1-1-0 Commissioner Munson voted no Commissioner Wright absent MOTION P CM-91-89 CUP-91-02 Vice-Chairman Buchanan made a motion to approve

7 - In addition to the goals set forth in the RI-JAM, the City established its own overall goal of 125 housing starts per year, or 625 new units over the five-year planning period Actual construction (i e , 222 units) fell far short of this goal for a variety of reasons The City has considered this fact, along with its accomplishments over the prior planning period, in establishing its current goals, objectives, policies and programs As such, the quantified objectives contained in the updated element are more realistic and attainable than those contained in the prior element since they reflect the City's experience over the past five-year period B Housing Needs, Resources and Constraints 1) The draft element indicated that information regarding the number of handicapped persons living in the City was unavailable Using 1980 Census data, updated via a methodology suggested by HCD, the number of handicapped persons residing in Grand Terrace has been estimated in the revised draft This discussion can be found on page 28 of the element Furthermore, recognizing the needs of the handicapped, the City has included appropriate actions in the Housing Program section of the element At the suggestion of HCD, staff contacted the State Employment Development Department in San Bernardino and the San Bernardino County Housing Authority in an attempt to better identify the number of farm worker households currently residing in the City Both agencies indicated that while they did not have conclusive information on farm worker households, it appeared that few, if any, such households resided within the City in early 1991 This is understandable in light of the absence of farming within and adjacent to the City of Grand Terrace 2) The amount of land available to accommodate new residential development, with appropriate zoning, development standards, public services and facilities, is listed in Table 14 (page 25) and shown on Figure 2 in the revised draft These sites, which include both underdeveloped and vacant properties, could accommodate the construction of over 1,000 new housing units Of these units, it has been estimated that approximately 200 would be affordable umts Focusing on the current five-year planning period (1989-94), it is estimated that a total of 250 new housing units will be constructed during this period and that at least 90 of these units will be affordable housing While these estimates fall short of the housing needs identified in the Southern California Association of Governments' Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), they are considered to be quite realistic since they are based on actual housing starts over the past five years In addition to being realistic, these estimates or goals represent an ambitious, more than good faith effort on the - a - part of the City to address the RHNA forecasts, particularly in light of the limited financial resources that are available and other prevailing constraints The provision of density bonuses is expected to be one of the primary ways in which affordable units will be constructed This technique, in itself, may be capable of generating affordable housing When coupled with below market rate financing (i e, tax exempt mortgage revenue bonds), it is fully capable of producing affordable housing, as evidenced by the recent Forest City Dillon project The effectiveness of this tool is due to the manner in which the bonuses are provided The City's density bonus program is two-fold, with the City allowing bonuses of up to 20 percent over the bonus (i e , 25 percent) required under State law In other words, bonuses of up to 45 percent of the density normally allowed by the underlying zoning are possible when dealing with R3 zoned properties within the City While density bonuses will continue to be used to generate affordable housing, this is not the only means by which the City intends to address the low and moderate income housing needs identified in the RHNA As summarized in Table 15 in the revised draft, the City intends to supplement the use of density bonuses by expediting the processing of plans, waiving application fees for affordable housing developments, and encouraging the use of innovative construction techniques and design standards that can reduce housing costs The City's Redevelopment Agency also intends to issue mortgage revenue bonds to make the cost of new and resale housing more affordable to low and moderate income households, to the extent possible In conclusion, staff believes that the City's Housing Program represents the maximum effort the City can make to promote the development of affordable housing in light of existing nongovernmental constraints 3) The City's land use controls have been analyzed in the revised draft of the Housing Element and they are not seen as a constraint on the provision of affordable housing As indicated on page 36 of the document, the City's residential development standards, both on and off-site, are not overly or unnecessarily restrictive These development standards are totally consistent with the parameters and policies established in the General Plan and reflect an attempt to balance housing needs with infrastructure capacities and environmental considerations The density, setback and other standards regulating development within the City are similar to those being used by other surrounding communities and will not inhibit the development of a range of housing types within the City - 4 - The densities at which the potential new housing sites identified in the element can be developed will obviously affect their housing unit production However, these densities wei e not arbitrarily established but, rather, respond to prevailing natural conditions Approximately 80 percent of the vacant, residentially designated land within the City exists as hillsides that are difficult and costly to develop As such, these areas have been allocated for low density residential uses Conversely, the relatively flat and more readily developable areas have been designated for high density residential development Moreover, recent experience has clearly shown that with the application of density bonuses incorporated into the City's zoning ordinance, affordable housing can be built under the densities established by the General Plan 4) In preparing the revised draft, staff investigated the availability of financing, and the cost thereof, to local residents/developers as suggested by HCD Representatives of the these lending institutions with offices within the City were contacted regarding this matter, with a focus on their efforts to meet the credit needs of the community as required by the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Based on discussions with these representatives, as well as a review of their CRA Statements, it has been determined that financing is available to all economic segments of the community and at interest rates that are not significantly different than in surrounding areas C Housing Programs 1) a) Recognizing that mobile home parks are generally a form of affordable housing, the City intends to retain the existing zoning on these sites and thereby discourage their premature recycling to other uses The City's Redevelopment Agency further intends to encourage their upgrading and improvement by offering rehabilitation assistance to eligible mobile home owners through its recently instituted low and moderate income housing program Finally, the City has indicated that it will consider the imposition of rent control upon a change in park ownership in order to preserve affordable housing opportunities, if necessary As an aside, the City does not need to assist the County Housing Authority in providing rental assistance to mobile home park tenants The Housing Authority staff is perfectly capable of administering this program on its own The City, however, does apprise mobile home park tenants of the availability of rental assistance through the County Housing Authority and directs any inquiries regarding such assistance to the Housing Authority - 5 - b) The City Council is prepared to execute a cooperative agreement with the County Department of Economic and Community Development in order to make Countywide bond proceeds available to local developers/first time homebuyers The City will also pay a commitment fee to guarantee a local allocation of bond proceeds, if required However, the County has been slow in developing and implementing its revenue mortgage bond programs Therefore, the City's Redevelopment Agency may use a portion of its housing set- aside funds to provide mortgage assistance to low and moderate income, first time homebuyers c) The County Housing Authority will continue to offer Section 8 rental assistance to all eligible residents of San Bernardino County as long as funding for this program is available from the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) The City could secure its own local allocation of Section 8 funds by responding to future Notices of Funding Availability released by HUD However, the competition is usually very keen for the limited funds that are available and the City does not have, nor could it afford to develop, the administrative capacity to operate such a program As an alternative, the City's Redevelopment Agency could use a portion of its Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund to capitalize a local rental assistance program Unfortunately, this option is not available since the Redevelopment Agency has committed its 20 percent set-aside funds to a multi-faceted low and moderate income housing program that does not include rental assistance It is impossible to adequately address all identified needs with the limited funds that are available Priorities are established and then serve as the basis for the allocation of what funds are available d) The City's Redevelopment Agency has issued mortgage revenue bonds on three occasions, in 1981 and 1984 for single family housing and more recently for the Forest City Dillon multi-family development The Agency has expressed its desire to issue additional bond measures to facilitate the provision of affordable housing, but Federal legislation has eliminated tax exempt financing for this purpose Therefore, only taxable bond measures, which are less attractive to potential investors and the development community, are available for use by the Agency e) The agencies mentioned by HCD will be contacted In fact, materials may already he available from these agencies that can be used to accomplish the City's stated objective - 6 - f) In preparing the revised di aft, staff contacted the County Housing Authority and was informed that Section 8 rental assistance can be used to subsidize mobile home rentals when the monthly rent includes both the space and the unit located thereon 2) As previously indicated, adequate sites, with appropriate zoning, development standards, public services and facilities, have been identified in the updated Housing Element to reasonably accommodate the estimated need for new housing construction within the City These sites are capable of generating a variety of housing types that address the needs of all economic segments of the community This conclusion is firmly supported by the existing housing stock within the City and particularly the variety of units constructed over the past five years under existing zoning and development standards As an additional point of information, the City has no sphere of influence and, therefore, cannot annex territory to accommodate additional residential development 3) As previously indicated, the City's land use controls were examined as a possible constraint in preparing the revised draft and it has been concluded that they do not pose a constraint to the production of a wide range of housing types, including affordable housing This conclusion is borne out by the City's experience over the past five years, as well as the units that were under construction during the preparation of the updated Housing Element 4) The draft element indicated that it was the City's intent to conduct a survey of the actual number of homeless persons within the community and then, based on the results of that survey, take appropriate action In preparing the revised draft, and rather than deferring action to a later date, staff contacted local social service agencies, the County Fire Department, the County Sheriff's Department, the City's Community Services Department and the City Manager's Office in order to document the presence of homeless persons within the City and/or the extent to which they have sought assistance from local agencies Based on this investigation, it appears that any homeless persons originating from Grand Terrace are being adequately assisted Therefore, there is no need to identify sites in the updated element for the development of an emergency shelter or transitional housing The City will, however, continue to coordinate with and support the efforts of the Frazee Community Center and the Salvation Army in order to ensure that the needs of any homeless persons in the Grand Terrace area are met to the extent possible In this regard, the City's Redevelopment Agency will use a portion of its 20 percent housing set-aside to help fund the establishment of a new homeless shelter in the nearby City of San Bernardino, which will serve regional needs - 7 - D Other Topics 1) The revised draft includes a discussion of the opportunities that were provided for citizen participation during the preparation and processing of the updated element This discussion can be found on page 3 of the revised draft 2) A discussion of the consistency of the updated Housing Element with the other elements of the General Plan is included in the revised draft This discussion can be found on page 2 of the document dg/TS042991 RESOLUTION NO A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE ADOPTING THE UPDATED HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE GRAND TERRACE GENERAL PLAN WHEREAS, the Housing Element of the Grand Terrace General Plan (Exhibit A) has been updated and revised in accordance with Article 10 6 of the California Government Code and the Housing Element Guidelines contained in Title 25 of the California Administrative Code, and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the updated Housing Element at a public meeting held on July 17, 1989, and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a properly noticed public hearing on September 18, 1989, at which it approved the updated Housing Element and recommended its adoption to the City Council, and WHEREAS, following Planning Commission approval, the City Council reviewed the updated Housing Element at a public meeting held on October 26, 1989, and WHEREAS, subsequent to City Council review, the updated Housing Element was submitted to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for their review and comment on May 14, 1990, and WHEREAS, the City received written comments and suggestions from HCD (Exhibit B) regarding the updated Housing Element on June 25, 1990, and WHEREAS, after carefully and fully considering each of the comments and suggestions offered by HCD, the City staff has done the following a) Clarified the discussion in the updated Housing Element of the differences between what was projected and what actually occurred during the previous planning period, as well as the explanation of the circumstances that prevented the City from fully realizing its stated housing goals, b) Expanded the analysis of the special housing needs of the handicapped and farm workers that is contained in the updated Housing Element, c) Clarified the amount of land that is identified in the updated Housing Element as being available to accommodate new residential development with appropriate zoning, development standards, and public services and facilities, d) Concluded that the City can accommodate its regional share of new construction needs through the use of density bonuses and other means described in the updated Housing Element, e) Determined that the City's land use controls will not inhibit the development of a range of housing types within the City and that affordable housing can be built under the densities established by the General Plan, as borne out by the City's experience over the past five years, f) Further analyzed the availability of financing as a potential constraint and determined that financing is available to all economic segments of the community and at interest rates that are not significantly different than in surrounding areas, g) Provided additional details about the housing programs contained in the updated Housing Element, h) More thoroughly investigated the needs of the homeless and determined that there was no need to identify sites in the updated Housing Element for the development of an emergency shelter or transitional housing within the City, particularly since the City's Redevelopment Agency will use a portion of its Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund to help finance the establishment of a new homeless shelter in the nearby City of San Bernardino, i) Included a discussion in the updated Housing Element of the opportunities that were provided for citizen participation during the preparation and processing of the updated element, and j) Included a discussion in the updated Housing Element of the consistency of the updated element with the other elements of the General Plan WHEREAS, in accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, an Initial Study has been conducted and a Negative Declaration (Exhibit C) has been prepared for the updated Housing Element, and WHEREAS, a properly noticed public hearing on the updated Housing Element was held by the City Council on May 23, 1991 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the updated Housing Element of the Grand Terrace General Plan and the accompanying Negative Declaration are hereby adopted PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Grand Terrace, California at a regular meeting held on the 23rd day of May, 1991 AYES NOES ABSENT ABSTAIN ATTEST Byron Matteson Mayor Brenda Stanfill Deputy City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM John Harper City Attorney STATE OF CALIFORNIA GEORGE DEUKMEJIAN Gorcmor DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT t E U Housing Policy Development -

We recognize that Grand Terrace may choose other means of complying with the law A. Review and Revision Review the previous element to evaluate the appropriateness, effectiveness and progress in implementation, and reflect the results of this review in the revised element (Section 65588 (a) and (b) ) a "Progress in implementation" (Section 65583 (a) (3) ) An analysis of the significant differences between what was projected or planned in the earlier element and what was achieved b "Appropriateness of goals, objectives and policies" (Section 65588 (a) (1) ) A description of how the goals, objectives, policies, and programs of the updated element incorporate what has been learned from the results of the prior element Although the element provides results of the earlier element ' s objectives on pages 52-53 , it does not analyze the differences between what was projected and what occurred during the previous planning period, or describe the results of the policies and programs and how the current element ' s goals, objectives, policies, and programs incorporate what has been learned from the results of the prior element For example, the element states that its goal of meeting very low- and moderate-income housing was not accomplished (page 52) . How was the analysis of the programs to meet this goal incorporated into the current programs B. Housing Needs, Resources, and Constraints 1 Expand the analysis of the special housing needs of the handicapped and faimworkers (Section 65583 (a) ) . Although the element contains some general information about these groups, an adequate analysis should include a quantification of the total number of persons or households, a quantification and qualitative description of the need, and identification of potential solutions and resources to address the need. InfoL1uation on faLiuworkers may be available from local social service departments , the State Employment Development Department, Farm Bureau offices and the County housing authority InfoLmation on the handicapped may be available from the Social Security Administration and the State Department of Rehabilitation Where a serious unmet housing need is identified, program responses should be provided 2 The element should clarify the amount of land available with appropriate zoning and development standards with public services and facilities to ensure that the City can accommodate its new construction need for all income levels (Section 65583 (a) (3) ) The City states on pages 23 and 31 that its ability to accommodate its regional share of new construction need for all its lower-income housing appears to be dependent upon the utilization of the "density bonus" sites described In addition, the City indicated on page 52, that it failed to meet its previous element' s new construction goal for very low- and moderate-income units The City indicates on page 22 that "no large tracts of vacant land are available for affordable housing " Since the City has indicated that the development of density bonus units is the means by which the City intends to meet its lower-income regional share allocation, does the City plan on providing any additional incentives to encourage the development of these units If not, how does the City anticipate accommodating its regional share of new construction need through density bonuses The element should provide additional information as to how the City' s density bonus program will provide the opportunity for lower-income housing development and include infoLivation regarding the number of units previously developed or the reasonable expectation of development at the densities described For example, the density bonus development described in the element apparently relates to the development of additional units on existing zoned sites, as opposed to development of vacant higher density infill parcels The development potential will vary significantly as a result 3 Expand the analysis of the City' s land use controls as a potential governmental constraint to the development of housing for all income levels (Section 65583 (a) (4) ) The analysis should include a more detailed review of the City' s zoning densities, development standards (setback and building height requirements, for example) and other land use policies including open space and parking requirements In our opinion, zoning could be a constraint to housing development if the density categories are low in an area that could support higher density residential development and the City has not identified any other opportunities for higher density development In light of the City' s past record in accommodating its new construction need for all income levels (page 52) , the element should evaluate whether the City' s zoning ordinance has served as a constraint (see comment C-3) 4 Analyze the availability of financing as a potential and actual nongovernmental constraint upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels (Section 65583 (a) (5) ) The analysis of the availability of financing should consider whether financing is generally available, whether interest rates are significantly different from surrounding areas, and whether there are underserved areas or income groups in the community for new construction or rehabilitation loans Knowledge of this will assist the community to select and implement responsive housing programs such as mortgage revenue bonding, a mortgage credit certificate program, or targeted low-interest rehabilitation loans InfoLluation on the availability of financing may be available from local financial institutions under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) , which requires specified lending institutions to disclose the number, amount and location of mortgage and rehabilitation loans originated or purchased, and under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) , which requires that specified lending institutions help meet the credit needs of their communities The CRA requires that each lending institution covered by the Act provide maps describing its lending areas and information about the types of loans it provides, and that a public file be established containing written comments from the community regarding the institution' s CRA perfoLluance Lending institutions not covered under HMDA may be required to provide comparable information by State disclosure law (Section 35816 of Health and Safety Code) C. Housing Programs 1 In our opinion, the element should provide more detailed program descriptions and commitments to ensure that the City can meet housing element law requirements (Section 65583 (c) (1-6) ) Program descriptions should demonstrate a firm commitment to implementing the program objectives It is unnecessary to include programs the City could participate in; only those for which it has plans to actively investigate, continue, or apply for are pertinent Examples of program descriptions to be expanded, or which need to demonstrate a greater commitment to implement, include but are not limited to- a. Program 1 e How does the City "encourage the upgrading and improvement of existing mobilehome parks?" Does the City provide incentives, waive fees, or implement other actions? What type of assistance is provided to the County health department in providing rental assistance to mobilehome tenants? b Program 1 j What actions will the City undertake to "Actively pursue participation in the County' s mortgage revenue bond programs?" c Program 2 b In light of past federal budget reductions in Section 8 funding and present budgetary constraints, what commitment does the City have for continued use of Section 8 assistance from the County housing authority? What program options does the City have to resolve reduction or elimination of this assistance in light of the element ' s findings for the need for rental assistance (page 20) 2 d. Program 2 f "Use of redevelopment mortgage revenue bonds " Does the redevelopment agency currently issue bonds? If not, when will they be issued and what amount of funds will be allocated to meeting the City' s housing objectives? e For your information 1 Program 2 c In developing a "brochure outlining State and Federally funded housing programs, " the City may wish to contact the following agencies. California Housing Finance Agency 5711 Slausen Ave Culver City, CA 90230 (213) 736-2355 Department of Housing and Urban Development 1615 W Olympic Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90015-3801 (213) 251-7122 Department of Housing and Community Development Division of Community Affairs P 0 Box 952054 Sacramento, CA 94252-2054 (916) 322-1560 These agencies may already have brochures available for the City' s use or may be able to provide information useful in developing a brouchure 2 Program 2 d "Research the possibility of using Section 8 assistance for mobilehome rentals " The City should contact the County housing authority for existing program requirements Federal rules allow the use Section 8 assistance for mobilehome tenants, under Title 24 Code of Federal Regulations Part 887 , Section 887 471 2 . Depending upon the results of the analysis described in B-2 , the City may need to identify a program to provide adequate sites which will be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards and with public services and facilities needed to facilitate and encourage the development of a variety of types of housing for all income levels, including rental housing, factory-built housing, mobilehomes, emergency shelters, and transitional housing in order to meet the community' s housing goals (Section 65583 (c) (1) ) Localities have used various methods to increase their residential development capacity such as minimum densities, mixed- use zoning, increased height limitations, and redevelopment These and other methods are discussed in our Questions and Answers paper which was sent under separate cover The City may wish to rezone vacant sites within the City and prezone sites proposed for annexation, to better accommodate the housing needs of the various income groups For example, to meet the needs of the following income groups the City could consider zoning at these densities Very Low (multifamily rental 25-40 units/acre) Low. (multifamily rental or owner 18-25 units/acre) Moderate (rental and owner- 8-18 units/acre) 3 Depending upon the results of the analysis of the City ' s land use controls described in B-3 , the City may need to identify a program to remove or mitigate any land use controls as an identified governmental constraint (Section 65583 (c) (3) ) For example, the City may wish to grant additional density bonuses, ease parking requirements, reduce the turning radius on cul-de-sacs (35-40 feet may be adequate for modern fire equipment) or reduce open space requirements Additional infoinuation regarding reducing development standards and site improvement requirements is available from the Joint Venture for Affordable Housing (JVAH) sponsored by HUD (contact Gary Haines at (415) 556-0796) 4 Identify adequate sites which will be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards, and with public services and facilities needed, to facilitate and encourage the development of emergency shelters and transitional housing to meet the community ' s housing need (Section 65583 (c) (1) ) An adequate site (or adequate existing structure) is one located within reasonable access to public agencies and transportation services, which will not require unusually high site development costs Public services and _ facilities should be available to the site The General Plan designation and site zoning should peinuit the development of, conversion to, or use of, a shelter or transitional housing without undue special regulatory approval , and parking requirements, fire regulations, and design standards should not preclude use of the site Our technical assistance paper sent under separate cover contains further infoLmation on meeting this requirement D. Other Topics 1 Describe the City ' s efforts to achieve public participation in the development of its housing element (Section 65583 (c) ) In addition to holding public hearings at the planning commission and governing body level, the City should ensure the public participation of all economic seyments (including low- and moderate- income households) For example, the City could circulate its draft element to church groups, housing organizations, social service agencies, and community and senior groups. Notices regarding public meetings on the element could be posted in community centers, libraries, City hall, and throughout the community in public places 2 Describe the means by which consistency will be achieved with other general plan elements (Section 65583 (c) ) Among other things, the housing element must establish the locality ' s housing goals, policies and objectives, identify sites for new construction, and address governmental constraints Thus, the housing element affects a locality' s policies for growth and for residential land uses The goals, policies, and objectives of the housing element may conflict with those of the land use, circulation, and open space elements, zoning ordinances, and redevelopment and capital improvement plans Conflicts between general plan elements need to be acknowledged and the plan must be amended to eliminate such conflicts A broader discussion of general plan consistency requirements may be found in the Governor' s Office of Planning and Research General Plan Guidelines B \G_TERRAC r �rrr J i t'1 inninp FL WAND TFRRAc Dcp lI(n1Cnl NEGA FIVE DECLARA NON Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, a Negative Declaration is hereby filed on the below referenced project, on the basis that said project will not have a <ignifrcant effect on the environment DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT GP-89-01, is a revision of the City's Housing Element of the General Plan This revision is a five year update of the City's housing characteristics and housing programs APPLICANT City of Grand Terrace, California LOCATION I ntrre City of Grand Terrace FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT EFFECT Based upon the attached Initial Study, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment David Sawyer, Date Community Development Director City of Grand Terrace CKH ( ITC C11 Y OF GRAND T[IZRACE PLANNING DEPARTMENT INITIAL LNVIRONMEN FM STUDY I Background 1 Name of Proponent City of Grand Terrace 2 Address and Phone Number of Pi oponent City of Grand Ter t ace 22795 Barton Road , GI and Ter race, CA 92324-5295 Attention David Sawyer , Planning Director 3 Date of Environmental Assessment 9., — t s - 11 LI Agency Requtr ing Assessment City of Grand Ten ace 5 Name of Proposal , if applicable J S-l4c 6 Location of Proposal _t✓ �ITIRC ��-y oc= �2r�r17 II Environmental Impacts (Explanations of all "yes" and "maybe," answers are provided on attached sheets ) Yes Maybe No 1 Earth Will the proposal result in a Unstable eat th conditions of in changes in geologic substructures' ✓ b Disruptions, displacements , compac- tion or Duel covering of the soil' c Substantial change in topograpny or ground surface relief features' d The destr uction cover ing or modi- fication of any unique geologic or physical featut es' ✓ e Any substantial increase in wind or water et osion of soils either on or or off site' i Yes Ma be No f Chanrjcs in deposition or el osion of beach sands , or changes in sr! ialion deposition or ci osron which may modify the channel of a r iver or stream or the bed of the ocean or any bay, inlet or lake t/ g Exposur e of people or proper ty to geologic hazards such as earth quakes , landslides , mudslides , ground failure, or similar bazar cis' —1/ 2 Air Will the proposal result in a Substantial air emissions or deterror - ation of ambient air quality' / b The cr cation of objectionable oaor s ' / c Alteration of air movement, moisture , or temper ature, or any change in climate, whether locally or regionally' V 3 Water Will the proposal result in a Substantial changes in currents , or the — course or direction of water movements , in either marine or I ash waters' b Substantial changes in absorption rates , drainage patterns , or the I ate and amount of surface r unoff' - c Alterations to the course or flow of flood waters' t/ d Change in the amount of surface water in any water body' t/ e Discharge into surface waters or in any alteration of surface water qual rty, including , but not Irmrted to , temperature, dissolved oxygen or r turbidity' f Alteration of the direction or rate of flow of ground waters' 5 , ( - - - — Yes ___Mayl�e- -No -- - - -- g Change in the quantity of car ound waters , either through der ect addi- tions or withdrawals , or through inlcr- ception of an aquifer by cuts or / excavations? 1✓ h Substantial reduction in the amo'rnt of water otherwise available for public wailer supplies' V �a i Exposure of people or pi operty to water r elated hazards such as flood- ing of tidal waves? ✓ rr Plant Life Will the proposal i esult in a Change in the diversity of species , or number of any native species of plants (including trees , shrubs , grass , r./ crops , and aquatic plants) ? b Reduction of the number s of airy unique , rare, or endanger ed species of plants? ✓ r c Introduction of new species of plants `-' into an area of native vegetation , or in a barrier to thc, normal replenish- ment of existing species?
