The proposed private cul-de-sac is expected to be a shared driveway to facilitate access to any future subdivision request for the single family property immediate to the west of the project. A preliminary site plan has been prepared demonstrating how the future developments will comply with the R1 regulations, parking requirements, and landscaped front, side, and rear yard areas. The project demonstrates compatible yard-to-yard relationships: rear-to-rear and side-to-side that help make the development pattern compatible with the surrounding area. Street Frontage Improvements The project proposes a new detached sidewalk along McClellan Rd. In addition, the first 30' of the property shall be reserved for street frontage improvements. The private access roadway and cul-de-sac will include a new monolithic sidewalk, curb and gutter, and driveways. Prior to final occupancy, the applicant will be required to work with staff to record a landscape easement located adjacent to and east of the monolithic sidewalk to be maintained as landscaping on the private lots. A condition of approval has been added to reflect this requirement. Conceptual Tzvo-Story Plans The applicant has submitted conceptual site plan and elevations demonstrating that the new lots can facilitate reasonable and compatible house designs. The elevations, architectural details, and fa�ade treatment illustrated in Attachment 5 are intended to be representative of the future residences and are compatible with the existing neighborhood. The applicant/property owner is required to go through a separate design review process prior to the construction of the new homes. General Plan Conformance The General Plan Land Use designation is "Low Density Residential (1-5 dwellings per gross acre)" and the applicant is proposing a density of 3.12 dwelling unit/acre, which is consistent with City's general plan. Rezoning The project also includes a zoning request to rezone the property from R1-10 (minimum lot size 10,000 square feet) to R1-7.5 (minimum lot sizes of 7,500 square feet). Staff supports the rezoning request because the R1-7.5 zoning district is consistent with predominate zoning classification of the neighborhood. In addition, the proposed parcels meet all other single-family residential site development regulations. Trees An arborist report was prepared by one of the City's consulting arborist for the proposed project (see Attachment 2). The City Arborist surveyed approximately 100 trees on the property, most of which were small fruit trees, well below the city standard for protection. The arborist considered 27 of the 100 trees to be significant in size. Of the 27 trees, only one is considered a protected tree per the City's Protected Tree Ordinance (Tree #38, a 36" Coast Live Oak tree). Although the soil beneath the Oak tree canopy is impacted with elevated levels of pesticides, a plan for remediation to save the tree has been reviewed and approved by the City's consulting arborist and the County of Santa Clara, Department of Environmental Health. Additional confirmation sampling will be taken after remediation to ensure no impacted soil remains. If after the remediation the health of the tree declines, a separate tree removal permit will be 7 TM-2012-03, Z-2012-01(EA-2012-0-�) McClellan Road Subciivision August 27, 2013 required to be applied for and approved prior to removal. A consulting arborist will be required to review all construction, grading, trenching, or excavation work proposed near Tree #38. The recommendations are incorporated as conditions or approval. An English Walnut tree (Tree #46) located at the southwest corner of the property will also remain; however, all other trees will be removed as part of the project to facilitate the future residences and the private road. It is anticipated that future street trees and privacy tree planting will help compensate for this tree loss. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The Initial Study (Attachment 3) was presented before the Environmental Review Committee (ERC) at its meeting of August 1, 2013. The ERC voted unanimously to recommend a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project to the Planning Commission (Attachment 4). Additional mitigation measures will be required as conditions of approval to reduce impacts of the project to a less than significant leveL They include mitigation for: • Siological Resources (Tree Removals, Surveys of Nesting Birc�s � Bats, anc� Tree Protection Rec�uiremen ts) • Cultural Resources (Arc{iaeological or Paleontological Deposits or Human Remains anc�/or Cultural Material) • Hazardous Material (Leac�anc�Pesticic�e-Impactec� Soil, Survey for Asbestos anc�Leac�-Basec�Paint) • Noise (Restriction in Construction Hours anc� Ec�uipment, anc� Designation of a "Disturbance Coorc�inator") Soil Remec�iation The applicant has commissioned the preparation of a Phase I and Phase II environment assessment. Additional reports were commissioned which indicated elevated levels of lead, arsenic, and pesticides where site samples were taken, most likely attributed to prior agricultural and gardening use. The project is required to remediate the site by removing and disposing impacted soil as prescribed by County of Santa Clara Environmental Health Department. A condition of approval has been added to reflect this requirement. Please refer to the environmental assessment section above for additional information. Ot{ier DepartmentlAgency Reviezv The City's Public Works Department, Suilding Division, the Santa Clara County Fire Department, and the Cupertino Sanitary District reviewed the proposal and have no objections to the project. Their pre- hearing comments have been incorporated as conditions of approval. PERMIT STREAMLINING ACT This project is not subject to the Permit Streamlining Act since the adoption or amendment of a zoning ordinance is a legislative action. The following are application milestones: Project received: May 29, 2012 Deemed incomplete:June 29, 2012, August 24, 2012, and October 19, 2012 Deemed complete: August 13, 2013 8 TM-2012-03, Z-2012-01(EA-2012-0-�) McClellan Road Subciivision August 27, 2013 The Planning Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council to render a final decision on the project on September 17, 2013, unless appealed for reconsideration. PUBLIC NOTICING &OUTREACH The followin table is a brief summar�� of the noticin done for this pro�ect: Notice of Public Hearin , Site Notice & Le al Ad A enda ■ Site Signage ■ Posted on the City's official notice (14 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) bulletin board (one zveek prior to t{ie ■ Legal ad placed in newspaper {iearing) (at least 10 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) ■ Posted on the City of Cupertino's Web ■ 64 notices mailed to property owners within site (one zveek prior to t{ie{iearing) 300 feet of the project site (10 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) CONCLUSION Staff recommends approval of the Parcel Map and Rezoning since the project is not anticipated to have significant impacts to the community or immediate area. Additionally, the project is consistent with the general plan, subdivisions ordinance, and conforms to the predominantly single-family residential development pattern, consistent with Chapters 18.20 and 19.28 of the Cupertino Municipal Code.

The property invoIved is adequate in size and shape to conform to the new zoning designatian and is appropriately configured to accammodate reasonabde single family dwelling units. The proposed rezoning is compatible with the adjoining 2and uses and no physical constraints are present tha� wauld conflict with anticiputed la�cd use deveropment. Provision of utilities and related infrastructure to service the property are required as part of the future deveiopment. • 4. The proposed zorung will promote orderly development of the City. The rezoning prornotes the orderl� development of the city in tha� �he rezoning facilitates the development of additionar hous#ng unzts wheYe municipal services are currently avaiiabie. The proposed rezoning mirrors existing single family development pattern within the surrounding neighborhood. 5.

SECTION IV: CEQA REVIEW A Mitigated Negative Declara�ion for hhe Rezoning was prepared in accordance with the California Enviranmental Qual'rty Act (CEQA) per section 15074 {Decision to Prepare a Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration} of the CEQA Guideiines because the initial study identified potentially significant effec�s fhat would be rnit'rgated to a poin� where clearly no significant effec�s would occur. 25 Draft Resolution Z-20T2-01 August 27,2013 PASSED AND ADOPTED this 27th day o# August, 2013, Regular Meeting of the Planning Commission of the City of Cupertino, S�ate of California, by the follawing roll call vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSTAIN: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: ATTEST: APPROVED: Gary Chao Don Sun City Planner Chair, Planning Caxnmission G:1P[anninglPDREPDItTIRES120121z-20Z2-Q1 res.doc 26 Attachment 2 An Evaluation of the Existing Trees at 20840 McClellan Road, Cupertino AN EVALUATION OF THE EXISTING TREES AT 20840 McCLELLAN ROAD CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Assignment I was asked by Alci Honda—Snelling, Senior Planner for the City of Cupertinq to evaluate the existing trees located at 20840 McClellan Road, Cupertino. The plan provided for this evaluation is the Conceptual Grading and Drainage Plan, prepared by an engineer identified as JC, dated 12/1/11. Summary There are approximately 100 trees on this property. However, many of the trees are small fruit trees, well below the city standard for protection. Several of the fruit trees are in poor condition. For this inventory I have included 27 trees, which are significant in size. I have described each one briefly and have rated the health and structural integrity of each specimen separately on a scale of 1-5: (1)Excellent, (2) Good, (3)Fair, (4) Poor, (5) Extremely Poor. Metallic labels have been affixed to the trees starting with 6530 and ending with 6549. Because all of the trees start with the same two digits (65), I have used only the last two digits for this report and for the marlc-up of the map. Trees are referenced in this report by only the last two digits. The attached map shows the locations of the 27 trees. Tree# 34 represents a row of 8 European olive trees, all of similar size and condition. Tree# 38 is a large coast live oalc(Qzze��czzs�ag��ifolia)in excellent condition. It appears that it may be a challenge to preserve this tree, but the mitigations required to preserve it would be well worth it. Not only would its survival depend on the final plans, and on the care exhibited by the contractors, but ultimately on the activities of 2 adjacent home owners. Methods I measured the trunks of the 27 trees using a standard measuring tape at 4 '/�feet above soil grade(referred to as DBH or Diameter at Breast Height), except those specimens whose form does not allow for a representative measurement at this height. When possible, the trunk measurement is taken below the lowest fork on the trunk of a multi- stem specimen. I measured large coast live oalc Tree# 38 with a forestry service "diameter tape" for greater accuracy. The canopy height and spread are estimated using visual references only. The estimated shape of the canopy relative to the other nearby trees has been added to the attached map. Prepared by Michael L. Bench, Consulting Arborist December 20, 2011 1 27 An Evaluation of the Existing Trees at 20840 McClellan Road, Cupertino The condition of each tree was done by visual assessment only from a standing position without climbing or using aerial equipment. No invasive equipment was used. Consequently, it is possible that individual tree(s) may have internal defects, which are not detectable by visual inspection. Invasive exploratory inspection and analysis is beyond the scope of this evaluation. Observations There are 27 trees included in this tree survey. The attached map shows the locations of a1127 trees and their approximate canopy dimensions. Metallic labels have been affixed to the trees for field reference. The 27 trees are classified as follows: Trees # 30, 31 — Southern magnolia(Magr�oJia g��ar�dif7o��a) Trees # 32, 33, 34 (representing 8 trees)—European olive (Olea ezzt�opea) Trees # 35, 46, 47, 48, 49 —English walnut(Izzglar�s�t�egia) Trees # 36, 37, 38 —Coast live oalc(Qzzet�czzs�agt�ifolia) Tree# 39—Pecan (Catya illir�oir�es�is�) Trees #40, 42 —Monterey pine (Pir�zzs�t�adiata) Tree# 41 —Italian stone pine (Pir�zzs�pir�ea) Trees #43, 44 —Apple(Malzzs�species�) Trees #45 —Canary Island pine(Pir�zzs�car�at�ier�s�is�) All of these 27 trees are listed by number on the attached data sheet. This data sheet provides the basic data about each of the trees, including trunlc diameter, height, spread, health, structural integrity. The health and structural integrity of each specimen is rated on a scale of 1-5: (1)Excellent, (2) Good, (3)Fair, (4)Poor, (5)Extremely Poor. There are numerous small fruit trees on this property as we1L Many of the fruit trees are in fair to poor condition. Comments about Specific Trees The southern magnolia Trees # 30 and 31, located adjacent to McClellan Road, have been topped for line clearing. The growth of the stems following"Topping" is inherently wealc and prone to failure. For this reason, the value and importance of this trees to this site are greatly reduced as a result. Tree# 36, a coast live oak, and Tree# 42, a Monterey pine, have co-dominant leaders with included barlc. This condition often results in a major limb failure as the tree matures. The common method to manage this wealcness is to install cables, which in most cases prevents failures of this type. Prepared by Michael L. Bench, Consulting Arborist December 20, 2011 2 28 An Evaluation of the Existing Trees at 20840 McClellan Road, Cupertino Tree# 38, is a 36 inch diameter coast live oak(Qzze��czzs�ag��ifolia). Its health is excellent and its structure is quite good. The canopy is approximately 40 feet in height and the canopy spread is approximately 60 feet. Tree #38 is by far the largest and the best specimen among the trees on this property. Protected Trees The City of Cupertino ( Chapter 14.18 ) " finds that the preservation of specimen and heritage trees on private and public property, and the protection of all trees during construction, is necessary for the best interests of the City and of the citizens and the public thereo£" The City "finds it is in the public interest to enact regulations controlling the care and removal of specimen and heritage trees..." A"Heritage Tree" means "any tree or grove of trees which, because of factors, but not limited tq its historic value, unique quality, girth, height or species, has been found by the Architectural and Site Approval Committee to have a special significance to the community." A "Specimen tree" means any of the following: Species Measurement from Single Trunlc Multi-Trunlc Natural Grade Diameter/Circumference Diameter/Circumference Oalc trees; 4 '/�feet 10 inches (31 inches C ) 20 inches D (63 inches C) California Buciceye Big Leaf 4 '/�feet 12 inches (38 inches C ) 25 inches D (79 inches C) Maple; Deodar Cedar; Blue Atlas Cedar Risks to Trees By Proposed Construction The current conceptual plan would require the removal of the following trees: Trees # 33, 34 (8 olive trees), Trees # 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 47, 48, and 49. Although some of these would not be directly in the path of a construction feature, they would be so severely damaged (root damage and canopy losses)that they could not be expected to survive. These include Tree# 34, 43, 44, 47, 48, and 49. Although Tree#46 may survive construction, the English walnut species (Jzzglar�s���egia) species, commonly performs poorly in most landscapes, and usually has a very short life span in urban developments. Because the plans are conceptual and preliminary, it is not possible to assess all of the potential rislcs to Tree# 38. In iny opinion, it would be essential that a consulting arborist review all of the proposed plans, including the Utility Plan, the final Grading and Drainage Plan, the Site Plan, and the Landscape Plan, to address the potential rislcs to Prepared by Michael L. Bench, Consulting Arborist December 20, 2011 3 29 An Evaluation of the Existing Trees at 20840 McClellan Road, Cupertino Tree# 38. However, the sacrifice of all of the aforementioned trees would be worth the preservation of Tree# 38, provided the developer, the contractor and the new home owners would be willing to malce the necessary modifications and changes that may be required to preserve Tree# 3 8. Recommendations L I recommend that a consulting arborist be required to review all of the proposed plans, including the Utility Plan, the final Grading and Drainage Plan, the Site Plan, and the Landscape Plan, to address the potential rislcs to Tree# 38. 2. I recommend that there be no grading, trenching, or excavation in the critical root zone area of Tree# 38 within a radius distance of 30 feet of the trunlc. There are minor exceptions, which would require the review and supervision of a Consulting Arborist(this is a person with a higher level of training and experience than a Certified Arborist).

Jul� 2013 SECTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE This Initial Study of environmental impacts has been prepared to conform to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA), the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations 15000 et. seq.) and the regulations and policies of the City of Cupertino. The City of Cupertino is the Lead Agency under CEQA and has prepared this Initial Study to address the impacts of the proposed 20840 McClellan Road Rezoning and Subdivision on the 0.96-acre project site south of McClellan Road at its intersection with Bonny Drive. The proj ect proposes a four-lot subdivision to construct a private roadway and single-family residences on three parcels. An e�sting single-family residence and smaller residential building with associated carports and sheds would be demolished to accommodate the proposed development. Tiering of Environmental Review CEQA Section 21093 (b) states that environmental impact reports shall be tiered whenever feasible, as determined by the lead agency. "Tiering" refers to using the analysis of general matters contained in a broader Environmental Impact Report(EIlZ) (such as one prepared for a general plan or policy statement)in subsequent EIRs or Initial Studies/negative declarations on narrower proj ects; and concentrating the later environmental review on the issues specific to the later project [CEQA Guidelines 15152 (a)]. Tiering is appropriate when it helps a public agency to focus on issues at each level of environmental review and to a�oid or eliminate duplicative analysis of environmental effects examined in previous environmental impact reports [CEQA Guideline 21093 (a)]. In accordance with CEQA Sections 21093(a) and 21093(b) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15152(a), this Initial Study tiers off the City of Cupertino General Plan Final EIR(State Clearinghouse #2002122061) certified by the City Council on November 15, 2005. In several areas, such as land use and population and housing this Initial Study tiers off the analysis of planned growth and development in the 2005 City of Cupertino General Plan Final EIR. This Initial Study evaluates the project specific environmental impacts that were not addressed in the General Plan Final EIR and those that might reasonably be anticipated to result from the implementation of the proposed 20840 McClellan Road Rezoning and Subdivision project.

The project site contains two residences with an associated carport and two sheds. The proposed rezoning of the site would result in demolition of the e�sting buildings and allow for construction of three(3)two-story residences and a private driveway. The proj ect site is located in a residential area of Cupertino and is designated in the City's General Plan for Lo���Density Residential(1-�DLI"Gr. Ac.) land uses. The project site is zoned RI-10-Single Family Residential which allows for single-family residential development on 10,000 square foot lots. The proposed project would rezone the site to RI-7.�-Single Family Residential to allow future construction of three single-family residences on lots exceeding 7,500 square feet. 3.2 PROPOSED REZONING Proposed Parcels The proj ect proposes the subdivision of the property Table 3.2-1 into four lots to allow the future construction of three Development Summary (3) single-family residences and a private road (refer Parcel Size Allowed Residence to Figure 3.2-1). Parcels A through C on the site Parcel � (s.f.) Size(s.f.) would be redeveloped with single-family residences parcel A 8,051 3,622 (refer to Figure 3.2-2) and Parcel D would be the Parcel B 8,399 3,779 private road serving these residences. The proposed Parcel C 9,��8 �,251 parcels and allowed residence sizes are shown in Parcel D 13,075 -- '1'able 3.2-1. Notes: s.£=square feet 'Based on the R1-7.5-Single Familv Residential Zoning Ihstrict mavmum floor area ratio of 45°o of the net lot area. Site Development Standards Site development standards for the proposed zoning district(R1-7.5-Single Family Residential) include: • Minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet with a minimum lot width of 60 feet; • Conformance with the Landscape Ordinance; • Ma�mum floor area ratio of 45 percent of the net lot area; • Minimum first floor front setbacic of 20 feet, side yard setbacic of 15 feet combined, and rear yard setbacic of 20 feet • Minimum second floor front setback of 25 feet, side yard setback of 25 feet combined or 30 feet combined to avoid Residential Design Review, and rear yard setbacic of 25 feet • Ma�mum height 28 feet, no more than two stories. C'it� of C'upertino 8 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lellan Road Residential 44 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r 3.0—ProjectDescriptio�r Site Access and Parking The proj ect would provide vehicular access to the site via a private road off of McClellan Road. Sidewallcs would be provided along the south and east sides of the private road and along the McClellan Road frontage of the site. As shown on Figure 3.2-1, visitor parl�ing could be provided by six curb side parl�ing spaces on the proposed private road. Demolifion and Grading An e�sting single-family residence and smaller residential building with associated carports and sheds would be demolished to accommodate future development of residential structures on the site. Appro�mately 98 e�sting orchard and landscape trees would also be removed as a part of site clearing(refer to Figure 3.2-1 and Section 4.4.2.2 Trees). The project site is flat and, therefore, minimal grading is required to prepare the site for future development. Remediation worlc on the site will also require the removal of 0.5 to 1.5 feet of top soil from contaminated areas of the site and the importation of clean fill (refer to Section 4.8.2.1). Landscaping A preliminary planting plan for the site is shown on Figure 3.2-3. Two e�sting trees could be retained on site, including a large oalc tree on Parcel A and a walnut tree on Parcel C at the southwest corner of the property (refer to Figure 3.2-3). Retention of the large oalc tree on Parcel A is contingent on the completion of remediation activities beneath its canopy without significantly impacting the root structure and overall health of the tree(refer to Section 4.8.2.1). If retained, the final disposition of the tree will be determined following remediation of the site based upon an evaluation by the City's consulting arborist. Right-of-Way Dedication The proj ect will dedicate 3,000 square feet(appro�mately 0.07 acres) of the frontage of the site to the City of Cupertino. The project site currently e�tends to the center line of McClellan Road and includes an AT&T telecommunications easement. The 30-foot wide street right-of-way along the length of the project frontage will be owned and maintained by the City.

The environmental checl�list, as recommended in the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) Guidelines, identifies environmental impacts that could occur if the proposed project is implemented. The right-hand column in the checl�list lists the source(s)for the answer to each question. The sources cited are identified at the end of this section. Mitigation measures are identified for all significant project impacts. "Mitigation Measures" are measures that will minimize, a�oid, or eliminate a significant impact(CEQA Guidelines §15370). 4.1 AESTHETICS 4.1.1 Setting 4.1.1.1 Project Site The proj ect site contains a single-family residence which fronts McClellan Road. An additional residence is located behind the main residence and is not visible from the public right-of-way. Views of the proj ect site from McClellan Road are mostly obscured by mature trees and vegetation(refer to Photos 1 and 2). The 1950s era residences are constructed of wood and stucco. The property is accessed by a semi-circular driveway with two entry points from McClellan Road. The site is flat and public views of the site are limited to local views from the adjacent roadways. 4.1.1.2 Sun^oun�ling Visu�cl C'h�cr�ccter The proj ect site is surrounded by e�sting suburban residential development and a roadway. One and two-story wood and stucco clad single family residential buildings are located on adjacent properties. McClellan Road also contains quasi-public uses west of the project site(e.g. daycare, school, churches) and commercial uses are located east of the site at its intersection with DeAnza Boulevard. McClellan Road is an east/west minor collector roadway used by automobiles and buses. Mature landscape trees and shrubs in the neighborhood provide a visual buffer between residences and the heavily tra�elled roadway.

Opinions as to what constitutes a degradation of visual character will differ among individuals. One of the best available means for assessing what constitutes a visually acceptable standard for new buildings are the City's design standards and implementation of those standards through the City's design process. The following discussion addresses the proposed changes to the visual setting of the proj ect area and factors that are part of the community's assessment of the aesthetic values of a project's design. 4.1.2.1 Imp�cct to Scenic Vieivs or Scenic Resources The project site is located within a developed area on the floor of the Santa Clara Valley. The site does not provide scenic open space and is not located along a state scenic highway. Redevelopment of this suburban site, therefore, would not ha�e a direct adverse effect on a scenic vista or damage scenic resources. As discussed previously, scenic views from the proj ect vicinity are limited. In addition, views of the site are limited to the immediate area. The foothills west and south of the site are generally obscured by e�sting development and landscape trees. Implementation of the proposed project would not C'it� of C'upertino 1� Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 5� Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts substantially block scenic views and is not anticipated to have a substantial effect on a scenic vista. (No Impact) 4.1.2.2 C'h�cnge in Visu�cl C'h�cr�ccter The visual character of buildings is a function of design features including roof design (for example flat versus pitched or sloping roofs) and fenestration(window design), as well as building height. Building heights within a structure can also be varied (or modulated)in ways that add interest or soften a building's interface with the street. For example, building heights can be"stepped back" with shorter elevations in the front and varying roof shapes and heights can reduce the apparent mass of a building and create an appearance that fits into an area with different heights and varying roof styles. The design of building entrances, including use of awnings or porches, and other features can reduce the mass and perception of overall building scale at street and pedestrian interfaces. The scale and mass of buildings on the project site would increase under the proposed project. The proposed project would replace an e�sting single-story residence, visible from the roadway, with a private road and two-story residences visible from the public right-of-way. A representative conceptual elevation for these residences is shown in Figure 3.2-2. New trees will be planted on the site and along the street frontage that would soften views of the new development. The project would dedicate 30 feet of right-of-way along the street frontage which would allow for the construction of a sidewallc where none e�sts today. Final building and landscaping design would be determined during the Two-Story Permit process. The allowed building size and conceptual elevations for future residences on the site are similar to more recent(mid-1990s) development located east of the site. Residences allowed on the site, therefore, would not substantially degrade the visual character and quality of the project site or area. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.1.2.3 Light�cn�l Gl�cre Imp�ccts The proj ect would have windows and lighting typical of two-story residential construction (refer to Figure 3.2-2). Additional residential lighting on the project site would not be substantially greater than that created by e�sting residences in the project area. The project, therefore, would not result in substantial light or glare impacts that would adversely affect residences or other land uses surrounding the project site. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.1.3 Conclusion The proposed project would not result in significant visual or aesthetic impacts.

Urban and B7�ilt-Up Land is defined as residential land with a density of at least six units per 10-acre parcel, as well as land used for industrial and commercial purposes, golf courses, landfills, airports, sewage treatment, and water control structures. Currently, the project site is not used for agricultural purposes and is not the subject of a Williamson Act contract. The site is located within an urban area of Cupertino and there is no property used for agricultural purposes adjacent to the project site. 4.2.1.2 Forestry Resourees The project site does not contain any forest land and no forest or timberland is located in the vicinity of the proj ect site. 4.2.2 Agriculture and Forestrv Resources Imuacts L,ess Than Potentiallv Significant L,ess Than Significant �'ith Significant No I�npact Checklist I�npact n-litigation I�npact Source(s) Incorporated Would the project: 1.

The project area's pro�mity to both the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay has a moderating influence on the climate. This portion of the Santa Clara Valley is bounded to the north by the San Francisco Bay and the Santa Cruz Mountains to the southwest. The surrounding terrain greatly influences winds in the valley, resulting in a prevailing wind that follows along the valley's northwest-southwest a�s. Pollutants in the air can cause health problems, especially for children, the elderly, and people with heart or lung problems. Healthy adults may experience symptoms during periods of intense exercise. Pollutants can also cause damage to vegetation, animals, and property. 4.3.1.2 Region�cl�cn�l Loc�cl C'riteri�c Pollut�cnts Maj or criteria pollutants, listed in"criteria" documents by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB)include ozone, carbon mono�de, nitrogen dio�de, sulfur dio�de, and suspended particulate matter(P1V�. These pollutants can have health effects such as respiratory impairment and heart/lung disease symptoms. Violations of ambient air quality standards are based on air pollutant monitoring data and are judged for each air pollutant. The Bay Area as a whole does not meet state or federal ambient air quality standards for ground level ozone and PM�;and state standards for PMio. The area is considered attainment or unclassified for all other pollutants. 4.3.1.3 Loc�cl C'ommunity Risks/Toxic Air C'ont�cmin�cnts�cn�l Fine P�crticul�cte M�ctter Besides criteria air pollutants, there is another group of substances found in ambient air referred to as To�c Air Contaminants (TACs). These contaminants tend to be localized and are found in relatively low concentrations in ambient air. However, they can result in adverse chronic health effects if exposure to low concentrations occurs for long periods. Fine Particulate Matter(PM�;)is a complex mi�ture of substances that includes elements such as carbon and metals; compounds such as nitrates, organics, and sulfates; and complex mi�tures such as diesel e�aust and wood smolce. Long-term and short-term exposure to PM�; can cause a wide range of health effects. Common stationary source types of TACs and PM�; include gasoline stations, dry cleaners, and diesel bacicup generators which are subject to permit requirements. The other, often more significant, common source is motor vehicles on freeways and roads.

These land uses include residences, school playgrounds, child-care centers, retirement homes, convalescent homes, hospitals and medical clinics. Existing sensitive receptors near the project site include the residential uses to the north, east, west, and south of the project site and the daycare center/school to the west (refer to Figure 2.2-3). 4.3.1.5 Regul�ctory Setting The City of Cupertino is within the San Francisco Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD). BAAQMD is the agency primarily responsible for assuring that the federal and state ambient air quality standards are maintained in the San Francisco Bay Area. Air quality standards are set by the federal government(the 1970 Clean Air Act and its subsequent amendments) and the state(California Clean Air Act of 1988 and its subsequent amendments). Regional air quality management districts such as the BAAQMD must prepare air quality plans specifying how state standards would be met. The BAAQMD's most recently adopted Clean Air Plan (CAP)is the Bay Area 2010 Clean Air Plan (2010 CAP). This plan includes a comprehensive strategy to reduce emissions from stationary, area, and mobile sources. The 2010 CAP provides an updated comprehensive plan to improve Bay Area air quality and protect public health, tal�ing into account future growth projections to 2035. Some of these measures or programs rely on local governments for implementation. The 2010 CAP also includes measures designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. 4.3.2 Air Quality Impacts L,ess Than Potentiallv Significant L,ess Than Significant �'ith Significant No I�npact Checklist I�npact n-litigation I�npact Source(s) Incorporated Would the project: 1.

These thresholds are based on thresholds identified by BAAQMD in 2011. i The BAAQMD CEQA Air Quality Guidelines recommend that proj ects be evaluated for community rislc when they are located within 1,000 feet of freeways, high traffic volume roadways (10,000 a�erage annual daily trips or more), and/or stationary permitted sources of TACs. The thresholds for TACs are an increased cancer rislc of greater than 10.0 in one million, increased non-cancer rislc of greater than 1.0 on the hazard index(chronic or acute), or a PM�; increase of 0.3 µg/m'. 4.3.2.2 C'le�cn Air Pl�cn C'onsistency Determining consistency with the 2010 CAP involves assessing whether applicable control measures contained in the 2010 CAP are implemented. Implementation of control measures improve air quality and protect public health. These control measures are organized into five categories: Stationary Source Measures, Mobile Source Measures, Transportation Control Measures (TCMs), Land Use and Local Impact Measures, and Energy and Climate Measures. Applicable control measures and the project's consistency with them are summarized in Table 4.3-1, below. The proposed project is generally consistent with the control measures. i In December 2010,the California Building Indushti�Association(BIA)�iled a la�vsuit in Alameda Counn�Superior Court challenging to�ic au�contatnuiants and PM2.�tlu�esholds adopted b� BAAQMI)in its C E'C��Air°C�nnlit}•Guidelines(C'alifc�rnia Bzri7di�rgbrdzrstryAssociatio�r ti�.BnyArenAir Or�a7it}•lla�ragerixe�rtDistrict,Alameda Countv Superior Court Case No. RG10�48693).

Construction activities such as earthmoving, construction vehicle traffic, and wind blowing over exposed earth would generate e�aust emissions and fugitive particulate matter emissions that affect local and regional air quality. Construction activities are also a source of organic gas emissions. Solvents in adhesives, non-water based paints, thinners, some insulating materials, and caull�ing materials would evaporate into the atmosphere and would participate in the photochemical reaction that creates urban ozone. Asphalt used in pa�ing is also a source of organic gases for a short time after its application. Construction dust could affect local air quality at various times during construction of the project. The dry, windy climate of the area during the summer months creates a high potential for dust generation when and if underlying soils are exposed to the atmosphere. Construction activities would increase dustfall and locally elevated levels of PMio downwind. The proj ect is not of a size(three single-family units)that it would contribute significantly to criteria pollutant emissions. For all proposed projects, BAAQMD recommends implementation of the Basic Construction Mitigation Measures whether or not construction-related emissions exceed applicable thresholds. Consistent with the BAAQIVID CEQA Air Quality Guidelines, the project includes the implementation of the following updated dust and construction equipment e�aust control measures to reduce construction-related air pollutant emissions. The proj ect shall implement the following dust and diesel e�aust control measures recommended by BAAQMD and required by the City during the construction phase of the project: • All exposed surfaces (e.g., parl�ing areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpa�ed access roads) shall be watered two times per day. • All haul trucks transporting soil, sand, or other loose material on-site shall be covered. • All visible mud or dirt tracic-out onto adjacent public roads shall be removed using wet power vacuum street sweepers at least once per day. The use of dry power sweeping is prohibited. • All vehicle speeds on unpa�ed roads shall be limited to 15 mph. • All roadways, driveways, and sidewallcs to be paved shall be completed as soon as possible. Building pads shall be laid as soon as possible after grading unless seeding or soil binders are used. • Post a publicly visible sign with the telephone number and person to contact at the lead agency regarding dust complaints. This person shall respond and take corrective action within 48 hours. The Air District's phone number shall also be visible to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. • Idling times shall be minimized either by shutting equipment off when not in use or reducing the ma�mum idling time to 5 minutes (as required by the California airborne to�cs control measure Title 13, Section 2485 of California Code of Regulations [CCR]). Clear signage shall be provided for construction worlcers at all access points.

All equipment shall be checiced by a certified visible emissions evaluator. The construction emissions from the project are below the BAAQMD thresholds of significance used in this evaluation and the Basic Construction Mitigation Measures will be included on project plan documents prior to issuance of any building permits for the construction of residences on the site. The proposed project, therefore, would not result in a significant construction-related air quality impact. (Less Than Significant Impact) Local Community Risks and Hazards During Construction Construction equipment and associated hea�y-duty trucic traffic generates diesel e�aust, which is a known TAC. Health risks from TACs are a function of both concentration and duration of exposure. The proposed project does not involve substantial grading on the site thus the potential for large construction equipment to emit significant quantities of TACs over prolonged periods of time is minimal. The project construction period requiring heavy equipment is estimated to last a few months and involve the use of a limited amount of diesel-fueled construction equipment for grading, exca�ation, and pa�ing. The project will implement BAAQMD's recommended Basic Construction Mitigation Measures to reduce dust and diesel e�aust emissions. Construction of the proposed project would not significantly increase health rislcs on adjacent sensitive receptors. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.3.2.4 Oper�ction�cl-Rel�cte�llmp�ccts The 2011 BAAQMD CE�A Air�7�ality G7�idelines contains a screening threshold of 325 single- family dwelling units for operational-related impacts due to criteria pollutant emissions and their precursors (e.g., NO,, ROG, particulate matter). The screening criteria provide lead agencies with a conservative indication of whether a proj ect could result in significant air quality impacts. The project would allow construction of three single-family residences which is well below the screening threshold and, therefore, the project would not result in a significant air quality impact due to emissions of criteria air pollutants and their precursors. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.3.2.5 Loc�cl C'ommunity Risks�cn�l H�cz�cr�ls Imp�ccts As described above in Section 4.3.2.1, the BAAQMD CE�A Air�7�ality G7�idelines call for evaluation of proj ects for community rislc when they are located within 1,000 feet of freeways, high traffic volume roadways (10,000 average annual daily trips or more), and/or stationary permitted sources of TACs. There are no permitted stationary sources of TACs within 1,000 feet of the project site. Stelling Road and De Anza Boulevard are the only roadways within 1,000 feet of the proj ect site that exceed 10,000 a�erage daily trips. Neither roadway would exceed the threshold for increased cancer rislc of 10.0 in one million, increased non-cancer risk of greater than 1.0 on the hazard index(chronic or acute), or a PM�; increase of 0.3 µg/m'.

The project site is currently developed with two residences an associated carport and two sheds. In addition to the e�sting buildings, the proj ect site contains a remnant orchard. Habitats in developed urban areas are relatively low in species diversity. Species that use this habitat are urban and suburban adapted birds, such as Rocic Dove, Mourning Dove, House Sparrow, Scrub Jay, and Starling. Based upon the developed habitats found on the site, no special-status plant or animal species are expected to be present on the site.

Permits may be required from both the CDFW and USFWS if activities associated with a proposed proj ect will result in the talce of a species listed as threatened or endangered. To "take" a listed species, as defined by the State of California,is"to hunt, pursue, catch, capture, or l�ill, or attempt to hunt, pursue, catch, capture or l�ill" said species (California Fish and Game Code, Section 86). "Talce"is more broadly defined by the federal Endangered Species Act to include"harm" of a listed species (16 USC, Section 1532(19), 50 CFR, Section 17.3). Bats Bats, such as the pallid bat(Antrozo��s pallid��s), may use hollows of larger, older oalc trees for roosting in open-canopy oalc woodland, and the California myotis (Myotis californic��s) and long- eared myotis (Myotis evotis) can occur in areas of oalc woodland with a closed canopy. Pallid bats are listed in California as a Species of Special Concern. Mi�ratorv Birds State and federal laws also protect most bird species. The Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act (FMBTA: 16 U.S.C., scc. 703, Supp. I, 1989)prohibits l�illing, possessing, or trading in migratory birds, except in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior. This act encompasses whole birds, parts of birds, and bird nests and eggs. Birds of Prev Birds of prey, such as owls and hawlcs, are protected in California under provisions of the State Fish and Game Code, Section 3503.5, (1992), which states that it is "unlawful to talce, possess, or destroy any birds in the order Falconiformes or Strigiformes (birds of prey) or to talce,possess, or destroy the nest or eggs of any such bird except as otherwise provided by this code or any regulation adopted pursuant thereto." Construction disturbance during the breeding season could result in the incidental loss of fertile eggs or nestlings, or otherwise lead to nest abandonment. Disturbance that causes nest abandonment and/or loss of reproductive effort is considered "tal�ing" by the CDFW.

The City finds that the preservation of specimen and heritage trees on private and public property, and the protection of all trees during construction, is necessary for the best interests of the City and of the citizens and public (Municipal Code Chapter 14.18). The City's Municipal Code calls for protection of"specimen" and"heritage"trees and requires a permit prior to their removal. Specimen Trees include the following species that have a minimum single-trunlc diameter of 10-inches (31-inches in circumference) or minimum multi-trunlc diameter of 20-inches (63-inches in circumference)measured at 4.5 feet from natural grade: oalc(including coast live oalc, valley oalc, blacic oalc, blue oalc, and interior live oalc), California buciceye, big leaf maple, deodar cedar, blue atlas cedar, bay laurel or California bay, and western sycamore (Municipal Code Chapter 14.18.050). Heritage Trees are any tree or grove of trees which, because of factors including, but not limited to, its historic value, unique quality, girth, height, or species, has been found by the Planning Commission to ha�e a special significance to the community. The removal of specimen trees, heritage trees, street trees, and any tree required to be planted or retained as part of an approved development application, building permit,tree removal permit or code enforcement action shall not be removed without first obtaining a tree removal permit (Municipal Code Chapter 14.18.140). Of the trees surveyed for the project none are street trees and one is a specimen tree(refer to Appendix A).

In addition, when trees that contain roosting colonies or individual bats are removed or modified, individual bats can be physically injured or l�illed; subjected to physiological stress as a result being disturbed during torpor; or be subjected to increased predation due to exposure during daylight hours. Further, project-related disturbance in close proximity to a maternity roost could potentially cause females to abandon their young. Impact BIO— 1: The development of the proposed project could result in direct impacts to nesting birds, if present on the site at the time of construction. (Significant Impact) Impact BIO-2: The proposed project may result in disturbance to pallid bats. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval, the proposed project shall implement the following measures to a�oid impacts to nesting raptors and special-status bat species: Tree Nesting Birds MM BIO-1.1: Removal of trees on the project site should be scheduled between September and December(inclusive)to avoid the nesting season for birds and no additional surveys would be required. MM BIO-1.2: If removal of the trees on-site is planned to talce place between January and August(inclusive), a pre-construction survey for nesting birds shall be conducted by a qualified ornithologist to identify active nesting raptor or otlier bird nests that may be disturbed during proj ect implementation. Between January and April (inclusive)pre-construction surveys shall be conducted no more than 14 days prior to the initiation of construction activities or tree relocation or removal. Between May and August(inclusive), pre-construction surveys shall be conducted no more than thirty (30) days prior to the initiation of these activities. The surveying ornithologist shall inspect all trees in and immediately adjacent to the construction area for nests. If an active raptor nest is found in or close enough to the construction area to be disturbed by these activities, the ornithologist shall, in consultation with the State of California, Department of Fish&Wildlife(CDFV�, designate a construction-free buffer zone around the nest until the end of the nesting activity. Buffers for other birds shall be determined by the ornithologist.

A qualified bat specialist will loolc for individuals, guano, staining, and vocalization by direct observation and potentially waiting for nighttime emergence. The survey shall be conducted during the time of year when bats are active, between April 1 and September 15. If demolition is planned within this timeframe, the survey shall be conducted within 15 days of demolition. An initial survey could be conducted to provide early warning if bats are present, but a follow-up survey will be necessary within 15 days of demolition and site clearing. If no bats are observed to be roosting or breeding in structures or trees, then no further action would be required, and demolition can proceed. The survey will be conducted by a qualified bat biologist. No activities that will result in disturbance to active roosts should proceed prior to the completed surveys. If no active roosts are found, then no further action would be warranted. MM BIO—2.2: If an active nursery roost is located and the project cannot be redesigned to a�oid removal of the occupied tree, removal of the tree shall commence before maternity colonies form or after young are volant(flying). This buffer shall be maintained from April 1 st until the young are flying, typically after August 31st. If a non-breeding bat hibernacula(roost)is found in a tree scheduled to be removed, the individuals will be safely evicted, under the direction of a qualified bat biologist by opening the roosting area to allow air flow through the cavity or, if possible, one-way doors will be inserted into tree crevices to allow bats to e�t, but not re-enter,the crevices. Trees with roosts that need to be removed should first ha�e bats evicted at duslc,just prior to removal, to allow bats to escape during the darlcer hours. (Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated) 4.4.2.2 Trees The tree survey completed for the proj ect(refer to Appendix A) evaluated impacts to trees based on tree health and the site design. Trees in the building and roadway footprints were assumed to be removed. It is anticipated that a total of 98 trees would be removed to construct the proposed proj ect. Appro�mately 73 of the trees proposed for removal are fruit trees associated with a remnant orchard that are in poor condition. The project has been designed to maintain the one specimen tree on the site, a coast live oalc, on Parcel A and an English walnut on Parcel C. The coast live oalc on Parcel A, however, may require removal due to soil remediation activities beneath the tree canopy (refer to Section 4.8.2.1).

If additional soil removal is determined to be necessary to address soil contamination, removal of the coast live oalc may be required along with the application of a tree removal permit. Impact BIO—3: Development of the project would result in the removal of a substantial number of trees from the site. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As conditions of approval, the proposed project shall implement the following measures to reduce impacts to trees to a less than significant level: MM BIO—3.1: The proj ect shall implement the following measures to avoid impacts to trees proposed for retention and mitigate for tree removal: • Protected trees to be removed shall be replaced at the following ratios per City Municipal Code Section 14.18.185: Table 4.4-2 Tree Replacement Ratios Trunk Size of Removed Tree (measured at 4.5 feet above Replacement Trees grade) Up to 12 inches One 24-inch box tree Over 12 inches and up to 18 inches Two 24-inch box trees Over 18 inches and up to 36 Two 24-inch box trees or one inches 36-inch box tree Over 36 inches One 36-inch box tree • All trees proposed for retention on the site shall ha�e a designated Tree Protection Zone(hereinafter"TPZ") based on the City Arborist's recommendation and/or five to seven times the trurilc diameter in all directions. The TPZ is where all grading, overexcavation, soil scraping, trenching and compaction shall be a�oided except where otherwise approved. The City Arborist shall be consulted to determine an appropriate TPZ for trees proposed for retention on the site. • Any stormwater treatment swales, bioswales and biofiltration areas should be established beyond TPZs. • All utilities and services (e.g. storm drain, electrical, water, sewer, fiber optic, gas, etc.) should be routed beyond TPZs. In the event this is not feasible, the location and pro�mity to a tree's trunlc would dictate which of the following installation methods can offer sufficient mitigation: mechanically excavating, hand-digging, a pneumatic air device (such as an Air-Spade), or directional boring. For directional- boring, the ground above any tunnel must remain undisturbed, and C'it� of C'upertino 32 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 68 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts access pits and any infrastructure(e.g. splice boxes, meters and vaults) established beyond TPZs. • Prior to grading or exca�ation, an on-site preconstruction meeting shall be completed between the proj ect superintendent and arborist to review placement of tree fencing and other measures for tree protection. • Tree protective fencing shall be installed prior to any demolition and grading for the purpose of restricting access into a TPZ; its precise location can be reviewed during the preconstruction meeting previously mentioned. The fencing should consist of five-to six-foot high chain linlc mounted on eight-foot tall, one and seven-eighths-inch diameter galvanized steel posts that are driven into the ground 24 inches deep, and spaced apart by no more than appro�mately ten feet. It should remain intact and maintained throughout construction, and only removed upon completion of construction. • The staging area(s) and routes of access must be established beyond the TPZs. • Fertilization, if properly applied, may benefit a tree's health, vigor and appearance. Frior to doing so, however, soil samples shall first be obtained to identify the pH levels and nutrient levels so a proper fertilization program can be established. Any fertilization shall be performed under the direction and supervision of a certified arborist, and in accordance with ANSI A300 (Part 2) —2004 Fertilization standards. • Unless otherwise approved, all construction activities must be conducted beyond TPZs, to include, but not be limited to, the following: demolition, grading, subexca�ation, stripping of topsoil, trenching, equipment cleaning, stocicpiling or dumping materials, and equipment/vehicle operation and parl�ing. • The routes of any irrigation or utility line within or ten feet from a TPZ shall be reviewed with the project arborist before digging occurs. • Spoils created during digging shall not be piled or spread on unpaved ground within a TPZ. If essential, spoils can be temporarily piled on plywood or a tarp. • Tree trunlcs shall not be used as winch supports for moving or lifting heavy loads. • Any approved digging or trenching within a TPZ shall be manually performed without heavy equipment or tractors operating on unpaved ground beneath canopies. • Approved trenching or exca�ation shall not damage, scrape or gouge roots two inches and greater in diameter. In the event these roots are encountered, the project arborist shall be notified, and they shall be either covered with soil or wrapped in moistened burlap within a few C'it� of C'upertino 33 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 69 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts hours or exposure. If burlap is used, it shall remain continually moist until the trench or area is backfilled. • During trenching, roots encountered that have diameters less than two inches and require removal can be cleanly severed at right angles to the direction of root growth. In doing so, sharp cutting tools (e.g. loppers or handsaw) shall be used, and the cut shall occur against the tree side of the trench. • Supplemental water must be supplied to impacted trees during the dry months of the year(e.g. May thru October); the methodology, frequency and amounts can be provided by the proj ect arborist. Various methodologies include flooding the inside of a 12-inch tall berm established around the canopy's perimeter(or as close to the perimeter as possible), using soalcer hoses, or through deep-root inj ection. This shall occur every two weelcs, and consist of appro�mately, per tree, five to ten gallons per inch of trunlc diameter. • Great care must be talcen by equipment operators to position their equipment to a�oid the trees' trunlcs and branches. Where a conflict e�sts, the project arborist shall be advised to provide a feasible solution. • The disposal of harmful products (such as cement, paint, chemicals, oil, and gasoline)is prohibited beneath canopies or anywhere on site that allows drainage beneath or near TPZs. Herbicides shall not be used with a TPZ; where used on-site,they shall be labeled for safe use near trees. • Tree protection fencing can be removed once construction is complete and authorized during a final inspection. • A three-to four-inch ma�mum layer of wood chip mulch shall be maintained (and replenished when necessary beneath each tree's canopy. It shall remain at least six inches from all tree trunlcs. • Any additional activity required within a TPZ shall be performed under the supervision of a qualified arborist. If deemed acceptable by the arborist, all worlc shall be manually performed using hand tools and wheelbarrows, tunneling, or using a pneumatic air device. Replacement tree plantings will off-set the removal of a specimen tree from the site during construction. Oversight of construction activities by a certified arborist and implementation of specific tree protection measures will a�oid substantial impacts to any mature trees that will be retained on the site.

These resources may be located above ground or underground and have significance in the history, prehistory, architecture, architecture of cultural of the nation, State of California, or local or tribal communities. Paleontological resources are fossils, the remains or traces of prehistoric life preserved in the geologic record. They range from the well known and well publicized (such as mammoth and dinosaur bones)to scientifically important fossils. 4.5.1.1 Prehistoric C'ontext�cn�l Resources The project site is located in the Santa Clara Valley. Native American occupation of the valley e�tended over 5,000 to 8,000 years and possibly longer. Before European settlement, Native Americans resided in the area that is now Cupertino and lived in the Rancho San Antonio area for over 3,000 years. The South Bay Area's favorable environment during the prehistoric period, including alluvial plains, foothills, many water courses and bay margins provided an abundance of wild food and other resources. The Native American people who originally inhabited the Santa Clara Valley belong to a group known as the"Coastanoan" or Ohlone, who broadly occupied the central California coast from the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Big Sur in the south and as far east as the Diablo Range. The Coastanoan/Ohlone people practiced a hunting, fishing and collecting economy focusing on the collection of seasonal plant and animal resources. This customary way of living of the Coastanoan/Ohlone people disappeared by about 1810 due to disruption by introduced diseases, a declining birth rate and the impact of the California mission system established by the Spanish in the San Jose/Santa Clara area in 1777. In the Cupertino area, areas lilcely to be archaeologically sensitive, are found along stream courses and in oak groves. The proj ect site is located appro�mately 650 feet northwest of Regnart Creek on the valley floor. E�tant or known former oalc groves are not present in the immediate vicinity of the project site. 4.5.1.2 Historic Resources Based upon a review of building records, the project site was used for agricultural purposes until a residence was constructed on the site in 1950 (refer to Appendix C). The residential buildings on the site are over 50 years old. The Cupertino General Plan identifies Historic Sites, Commemorative Sites and Community Landmarlcs currently present in the City (Figure 2-G of the Cupertino General Plan). E�sting buildings on the proj ect site at 20840 McClellan Road are not identified as historic structures and are C'it� of C'upertino 36 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 72 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts not on a Historic Site, Commemorative Site or designated as a Community Landmarlcs in the General Plan. Historical resources eligible for listing in the California Register must meet criteria of significance and retain enough of their historic character or appearance to be recognizable as historical character to convey the reasons for their significance. Given that neither the buildings nor the proj ect site is identified in the City's General Plan as a cultural resource,the architectural style of the residential buildings does not embody distinctive characteristics or method of construction, these structures appear to e�ibit no historic significance. 4.5.1.3 P�cleontologic�cl Resources As noted above, paleontological resources are the fossilized remains of organisms from prehistoric environments found in geologic strata. Geologic units of Holocene age are generally not considered sensitive for paleontological resources because biological remains younger than 10,000 years are not usually considered fossils. These sediments have low potential to yield fossil resources or to contain significant nonrenewable paleontological resources. The proj ect site is underlain by late Pleistocene alluvial fan material deposits which have high potential to yield fossils.'°' 4.5.2 Cultural Resources Imuacts L,ess Than Potentiallv Significant L,ess Than Checklist Significant �'ith Significant No I�npact I�npact n-litigation I�npact Source(s) Incorporated Would the project: 1.

Removal of building foundations and construction of the proposed project would require grading, exca�ation, and trenching on the site to install utilities and remove contaminated soils (refer to Section 4.7 Hazards and Hazardous Materials). 4.5.2.1 Prehistoric,Historic, �cn�l P�cleontologic�cl Resources Development throughout the Santa Clara Valley adj acent to established water courses, has uncovered numerous buried archaeological sites. The project is not located near a water course or former oalc groves and it is urilikely that prehistoric materials associated with aboriginal settlements along Regnart Creek would be encountered during site grading and/or exca�ation. There are no historic structures located on the site and demolition of the e�sting buildings would not result in an impact to a historical resource or a site recognized in the Cupertino General Plan as a Historic Site, Commemorative Site or Community Landmarlc. While unlilcely, buried prehistoric or historic deposits which could provide information on prehistory or the history of this site, its inhabitants, and the role it played in the development of the City could be encountered. Impact CUL— 1: Development of the proposed proj ect could result in significant impacts to buried cultural resources, if encountered. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval,the proposed project shall implement the following mitigation measures to reduce impacts to cultural resources to a less than significant level: MM CUL— 1.1: In the event of the discovery of prehistoric or historic archaeological deposits or paleontological deposits, worlc shall be halted within 50 feet of the discovery and a qualified professional archaeologist(or paleontologist, as applicable) shall examine the find and malce appropriate recommendations regarding the significance of the find and the appropriate mitigation. The recommendation shall be implemented and could include collection, recordation, and analysis of any significant cultural materials. MM CUL— 1.2: In the event that human remains and/or cultural materials are found, all project-related construction shall cease within a 50-foot radius of the find in order to proceed with the testing and mitigation measures required. Pursuant to Section 7050.5 of the Health and Safety Code and Section 5097.94 of the Public Resources Code of the State of California: • In the event of the discovery of human remains during construction, there shall be no further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adj acent remains.

If no satisfactory agreement can be reached as to the disposition of the remains pursuant to this State law, then the land owner shall re-inter the human remains and items associated with Native American burials on the property in a location not subj ect to further subsurface disturbance. • A final report summarizing the discovery of cultural materials shall be submitted to the Director of Community Development prior to issuance of building permits. This report shall contain a description of the mitigation program that was implemented and its results, including a description of the monitoring and testing program, a list of the resources found, a summary of the resources analysis methodology and conclusion, and a description of the disposition/curation of the resources. The report shall verify completion of the mitigation program to the satisfaction of the Director of Planning. 4.5.3 Conclusion Impact CUL— 1: The proposed project, with the implementation of the mitigation measures MM CLTL-1.1 and MM CLTL-1.2, would not result in significant impacts to cultural resources.

A copy of this report is included as Appendix B of this Initial Study. 4.6.1 Setting 4.6.1.1 Region�cl Geology The City of Cupertino is located within the Santa Clara Valley, which is a broad alluvial plain between the Santa Cruz Mountains to the southwest and west, and the Diablo Range to the northeast. Most of Cupertino is on level ground that rises gently to the west. The San Andreas Fault system, including the Monte Vista-Shannon Fault, e�sts within the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Hayward and Calaveras Fault systems e�st within the Diablo Range. 4.6.1.2 On-Site Geologie C'on�litions Soils and Groundwater The site is developed with residential structures and paving on the north end of the site with unpa�ed rear yard areas on the southern two-thirds of the site. Subsurface soils consist of light brown silt clay with sand and gra�el to a depth of 15 feet below ground surface (bgs). The soils are moist and stiff to hard. The near-surface soils on-site have relatively low percentage of fines and low expansion potential. Groundwater was not encountered during the subsurface exploration, which e�tended to a depth of 15 feet. Fluctuations in the level of the groundwater may occur due to variations in rainfall, underground drainage patterns, and other factors. Seismicity and Seismic Hazards The San Francisco Bay Area is one of the most seismically active regions in the United States. The significant earthqualces that occur in the Bay Area are generally associated with the crustal movements along well-defined active fault zones of the San Andreas Fault system, which regionally trend in the northwesterly direction. The site is not located within a designated Alquist-Friolo Earthqualce Fault Zone`�or a Santa Clara County Fault Hazard Zone.' In addition,no known surface expression of active faults are believed to cross the site and fault rupture hazard is not a significant geologic hazard at the site. a California Deparhment of Conservafion,Division of Mines and Creolog��.

Liquefaction Liquefaction is the result of seismic activity and is characterized as the transformation of loosely water-saturated soils from a solid state to a liquid state after ground shal�ing. There are many variables that contribute to liquefaction,including the age of the soil, soil type, soil cohesion, soil density, and groundwater level. The proj ect site is not located within a designated State of California Liquefaction Hazard Zone'or a Santa Clara County Liquefaction Hazard Zone.g Based on an analysis of soils and the depth to groundwater, the liquefaction potential for the site is determined to be low. Seismicallv-Induced Differential Settlements If near-surface soils vary in composition both vertically and laterally, strong earthqualce shal�ing can cause non-uniform settlement of soil layers. This results in movement of the near-surface soils. The potential for significant differential seismic settlement affecting the site is low(appro�mately 0.5-inches). Lateral Spreading Lateral spreading typically occurs as a form of horizontal displacement of relatively flat-lying alluvial material toward an open or"free"face such as an open body of water, channel, or excavation. There are no open faces on or near the project site. 6 Association of Bav Area Crovernments. BayAren Fazrlts�.Map. 2003. �California Department of Conservation,California Geologic Stuve�.

Given the limited nature of subsurface construction required (utility trenching, grading, etc.), groundwater at depths of greater than 15 feet would not pose any constraints to the proposed proj ect. The proposed project would not be exposed to substantial slope instability, erosion, or landslide- related hazards due to the flat topography of the site. The proposed project would not be subject to substantial hazards related to soils on the site. (Less Than Significant Impact) Seismicity and Seismic Hazards The proj ect site is located in a seismically active region and, therefore, strong ground shal�ing would be expected during the lifetime of the proposed project. While no active faults are known to cross the proj ect site, ground shal�ing on the site could damage buildings and other proposed structures. The liquefaction, lateral spreading, and seismically-induced differential settlement potential on the site are low. In conformance with standard practices in the City of Cupertino, the proj ect shall be designed and constructed in conformance with the California Building Code guidelines for Seismic Zone 4 to a�oid or minimize potential damage from seismic shal�ing on the site. Implementation of building code requirements would reduce seismic and seismic-related hazards to a less than significant level. 4.6.3 Conclusion The proposed project, with the implementation of the above standard practices for building construction, would not result in significant seismicity or seismic hazard impacts.

Global warming associated with the "greenhouse effect"is a process whereby GHGs accumulating in the atmosphere contribute to an increase in the temperature of the earth's atmosphere. The principal GHGs contributing to global warming and associated climate change are carbon dio�de(CO�), methane(CHa)> nitrous o�de (N�O), and fluorinated compounds. Emissions of GHGs contributing to global climate change are attributable in large part to human activities associated with the transportation, industrial/ manufacturing, utility, residential, commercial, and agricultural sectors. 4.7.1 Existing On-Site GHG Emissions Two residences with associated structures and landscaping are located on the project site. E�sting GHG emissions from the residential development currently on the site are expected to be similar to e�sting single-family development throughout Cupertino. The greatest source of e�sting emissions are from mobile sources (vehicle trips to and from the site)followed by indirect and direct emissions from electricity and natural gas use for building heating, cooling, lighting and other uses. 4.7.2 Regulatory Background 4.7.2.1 St�cte of C'�cliforni�c AB 32, CEQA, and Other Laws and Regulations The Global Warming Solutions Act(also known as"Assembly Bill (AB) 32") sets the State of California's 2020 greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal into law. The Act requires that the GHG emissions in California be reduced to 19901evels by 2020. Prior to adoption of AB 32, the Governor of California also signed Executive Order S-3-OS which identified CaIEPA as the lead coordinating State agency for establishing climate change emission reduction targets in California. Under Executive Order S-3-O5, the state plans to reduce GHG emissions to 80 percent below 19901evels by 2050. Additional state law and regulations related to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions includes SB 375, the Sustainable Communities and Climate Protection Act(see discussion below), the State's Renewables Portfolio Standard for Energy Standard (Senate Bi112X) and fleet-wide passenger car standards (Pavley Regulations). The California Natural Resources Agency, as required under state law(Public Resources Code Section 21083.05)has amended the state CEQA Guidelines to address the analysis and mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. Under these sections of the CEQA Guidelines (§15064.4), Lead Agencies, such as the City of Cupertino, retain discretion to determine the significance of impacts from greenhouse gas emissions based upon individual circumstances. Neither CEQA nor the CEQA Guidelines provide a specific methodology for analysis of greenhouse gases and under the amendments to the CEQA Guidelines, a Lead Agency may describe, calculate or estimate greenhouse gas emissions resulting from a project and use a model and/or qualitative analysis or performance based standards to assess impacts. The CEQA Guidelines (§15183.5) also outline the C'it� of C'upertino 44 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 80 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts required components of a"Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategy". Projects consistent with such a Strategy or Plan would reduce their contribution to cumulative GHG impacts to a less than significant level. Senate Bi11375 Senate Bi11375 (SB 375), also known as the Sustainable Communities and Climate Frotection Act of 2008, requires regional transportation plans to include a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) that linlcs transportation and land use planning together into a more comprehensive, integrated process. The SCS is a mechanism for more effectively linl�ing a land use pattern and a transportation system together to malce travel more efficient and communities more livable. The result is reduced greenhouse gas emissions from passenger vehicles along with other benefits. The target for the Bay Area is a seven (7)percent per capita reduction in GHG emissions attributable to automobiles and light trucics by 2020 and a 15 percent per capita reduction by 2035. The base year for comparison of emission reductions is 2005. The 2013 Regional Transportation Plan,Plan BayArea, was released on March 22, 2013 and is the Bay Area's first plan that is subject to SB 375.� A draft Jobs-Housing Connection Scenario that is part of the regional planning effort under SB 375 was released on March 9, 2012. 4.7.2.2 BAAQMD C'EQA Gui�lelines�cn�l 2010 B�cy Are�c C'le�cn Air Pl�cn The BAAQMD CEQA Guidelines outline a methodology for estimating greenhouse gases and analysis of project and plan impacts. In jurisdictions where a qualified Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategy 10 has been reviewed under CEQA and adopted by decision-malcers, compliance with the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategy would reduce a project's contribution to cumulative greenhouse gas emission impacts to a less than significant level. The Bay Area 2010 Clean Air Plan (CAP)is a multi-pollutant plan that addresses GHG emissions along with other air emissions in the San Francisco Bay Area Air Basin. One of the lcey objectives in the CAP is climate protection. The 2010 CAP includes emission control measures in five categories: Stationary Source Measures, Mobile Source Measures, Transportation Control Measures, Land Use and Local Impact Measures, and Energy and Climate Measures. Consistency of a proj ect with current control measures is one measure of its consistency with the CAP. The current CAP also includes performance objectives, consistent with the state's climate protection goals under AB 32 and SB 375, designed to reduce emissions of GHGs to 19901evels by 2020 and 40 percent below 19901evels by 2035.

These policies and the City's Green Building and Green Business Frograms include measures designed to reduce energy and water use and associated direct and indirect GHG emissions. The City also has adopted a construction and debris (C&D)recycling program ordinance that requires applicants seel�ing building or demolition permits for proj ects greater than 3,000 square feet to recycle at least 60 percent of proj ect discards. Recycling can indirectly reduce GHG emissions by reducing the need to manufacture or mine new products or materials. 4.7.3 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Imuacts L,ess Than Potentiallv Significant L,ess Than Checklist Significant �'ith Significant No I�npact I�npact n-litigation I�npact Source(s) Incorporated Would the project: 1.

Using a methodology that models how new land use development in the San Francisco Bay Area can meet statewide AB 32 GHGreduction goals, the BAAQMD Guidelines identifies a significance threshold of a net increase of 1,100 metric tons of carbon dio�de equivalents per year. In addition to this bright line threshold, the Guidelines include an"efficiency" threshold to be used for urban high density, transit oriented development proj ects that are intended to reduce vehicle trips but may still result in overall emissions greater than 1,100 metric tons per year. This efficiency threshold is 4.6 metric tons of carbon dio�de equivalents per service population (e.g., residents and employees)per year. The BAAQMD guidelines do not suggest a threshold of significance for short-term construction related GHG emissions. The City of Cupertino, and other jurisdictions in the San Francisco Bay Area Air Basin, recently have used the thresholds and methodology for assessing GHG emissions put forth by the BAAQMD based upon the scientific and other factual data prepared by BAAQMD in developing those thresholds. The City has carefully considered the thresholds prepared by BAAQMD and regards the quantitative thresholds to be based on the best information a�ailable for the San Francisco Bay Area Air Basin. Evidence supporting these thresholds has been presented in the following documents: C'it� of C'upertino 46 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 82 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts BIA vs.BAAOMD • Bay Area Air Quality Management D1Str1Ct(BAAQMD�.

Consistency with Local Plans,Policies, or Regulations Bav Area 2010 Clean Air Plan The Bay Area 2010 Clean Air Plan includes performance objectives, consistent with the state's climate protection goals under AB 32 and SB 375, designed to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases to 19901evels by 2020 and 40 percent below 19901evels by 2035. The CAP identifies a range of Transportation Control Measures, Land Use&Local Impacts Measures, and Energy and Climate Measures that malce up the CAP's control strategy for emissions, including GHGs. The proposed proj ect features a rezoning to allow three residences to replace two e�sting residences on a site pro�mate to transit,jobs, schools, shopping, parks, and other amenities. This would be consistent with Transportation Control Measure (TCM)D-2 —Pedestrian Access and Facilities Improvement. As noted above, the project will be required to meet the City of Cupertino's Green Building Code standards. This would be consistent with Energy Control Measure (ECM)-1 —Energy Efficiency in the CAP. The project would be consistent with the Climate Change Scoping Plan (as discussed above) and the Bay Area 2010 Clean Air Plan and would not exceed appropriate thresholds of significance for greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, the proj ect would not conflict with any currently adopted local plans, policies, or regulations pertaining to greenhouse gas emissions. Sustainable Communities Strate�v Regionally, a Sustainable Communities Strategy that links transportation and land use planning together into a more comprehensive, integrated process is under early development by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, BAAQMD, and the Association of Bay Area Governments. Under SB 375 (Redesigning Communities to Reduce Greenhouse Gases), the Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) has been developed as part of the update of the Regional Transportation Plan for the Bay Area which was released in March 2013. The project is not located in Priority Development Area and given its size would not conflict with the Sustainable Community's Strategy. The location, density, and measures included in the proj ect to reduce greenhouse gas emissions would not conflict with plans, policies, or regulations for reducing greenhouse gas emissions adopted by the California legislature, CARB, BAAQMD, or City of Cupertino.

These reports were prepared from March 2012 to July 2013 and are included in Appendix C of this Initial Study. 4.8.1 Setting 4.8.1.1 B�cckgroun�llnfornuction Hazardous materials include a broad range of common substances such as motor oil and fuel, pesticides, detergents, paint, and solvents. A substance may be considered hazardous if, due to its chemical and/or physical properties, it poses a substantial hazard when it is improperly treated, stored, transported, disposed of, or released into the atmosphere in the event of an accident. 4.8.1.2 Site C'on�litions The 0.96-acre project site has been developed with residential uses since 1950. The site was previously used for agricultural purposes as an orchard. Nearby sensitive receptors include surrounding residential development and quasi-public uses (e.g. daycare, school, churches) to the west. On-Site Observations A site reconnaissance survey was completed for the project site in March 2012. All e�terior areas of the proj ect site were inspected during the site reconnaissance. The interior of the smaller residence was examined and was visible from the outside. A portion of the main residence was observed from the e�terior. The project site includes asphalt-pa�ed driveways and parl�ing areas at the front, a rear patio, and a large lawn at the rear with remnant orchard trees. The main residence is a two-bedroom structure with a third bedroom in the converted garage. A smaller residence behind the main residence contains two rooms. Two sheds and a carport are also located on the property. Historic Site Conditions Based on historical records and aerial photographs, the project site was in agricultural use prior to 1950 when the e�sting residential use was constructed on the site. Prior to construction of the residences, the site and surrounding area contained orchards. The previous use of the property for agriculture implies the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizer, remnants of which are frequently found on developed properties previously used for agriculture in the Santa Clara Valley.

Concentrations of lead, arsenic, DDE, DDT, chlordane, dieldrin, heptachlor, and toxaphene were detected in the on-site soils. Arsenic concentrations, although elevated, were not above bacicground concentrations for Bay Area soils. Concentrations of lead and organochlorine pesticides (DDE, DDT, chlordane, etc.)were above the Department of To�c Substances Control (DTSC) California Health Hazard Screening Levels (CHHSLs) for residential use at several sample locations. Lead was detected in on-site soils in the southern portion of the site at 390 parts per million (ppm) appro�mately 0.25 feet below grade. Organochlorine pesticides at concentrations up to 8.3 ppm were detected in soils appro�mately 0.25 feet and 1.5 feet below grade in the garden areas of the property behind the main residence and directly west of the large oalc tree on-site(refer to Appendix C). Within the oalc tree canopy, organochlorine pesticides at concentrations from two to five times the residential CHHSL were detected in soils appro�mately 0.25 feet below grade. Based on the soil analyses completed, residual pesticides and metals in soils on the site are above levels considered to pose health rislcs for people. 4.8.1.4 Potenti�cl Off-Site Sources of C'ont�cmin�ction A regulatory database search was completed for the project site for the purpose of identifying all sites within the project area where there are known or suspected sources of contamination, as well as sites that handle or store hazardous materials. Based on information in these database records (refer to Phase I ESA in Appendix C)including the type of release, current case status, and distance and direction from the site, no reported hazardous materials spills or releases in the vicinity of the site have a potential to affect the proj ect site. 4.8.1.5 Other H�cz�cr�ls The proj ect site is not located within two miles of an airport or within the Santa Clara County Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC)jurisdiction safety zone.

Impact HAZ-1: The proj ect may expose residents of the site to lead and organochlorine pesticide concentrations exceeding state standards for residential uses. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval and in conformance with local, state, and federal regulations, the proj ect shall implement the following mitigation measures with the oversight of the Santa Clara County Department of Environmental Health and City of Cupertino to reduce impacts associated with redevelopment of the site to a less than significant level: MM HAZ— 1.1: The project shall excavate the area of lead-impacted soil to a depth of 1.5 feet in the area identified in the Revised Site Mitigation Plan. Soils will be tested, profiled, and granted acceptance to a landfill permitted to handle disposal of lead contaminated soil prior to exca�ation of these soils directly into trucics for offhaul from the site. Dust control measures (watering) shall be employed prior to and during excavation and loading to eliminate or minimize dust creation. MM HAZ— 1.2: From the rear of the e�sting residence to the midpoint of the property, pesticide-impacted soils that would be located beneath pavement or covered by structures will be exca�ated to a depth of six inches and disposed of at a permitted landfill. Where impacted soils are present in future landscape areas, soils will be excavated to a depth of one foot below grade. In planned landscape areas, confirmation sampling will be completed to confirm pesticide-impacted soils have been removed. Contaminated soils from landscape areas up to a depth of six inches will be disposed of offsite. The remaining exca�ated landscape area soil from depths of six inches to one foot will be stocicpiled on-site and eventually disposed at a permitted landfill or placed as fill beneath areas of pavement. MM HAZ— 1.3: Within the branch canopy of the large oalc tree on-site surface soil to a depth of appro�mately six to twelve inches below grade, will be exca�ated by hand under the consultation and direction of the City of Cupertino's arborist.

Surface runoff from the project site is conveyed to Regnart Creelc which flows to Calabazas Creelc and ultimately the San Francisco Bay. Appro�mately two-thirds of the proj ect site consists of pervious surfaces (landscaping and rear yard). Runoff from the site is currently conveyed to a 12-inch storm drain line located in McClellan Road. Groundwater The project site is located in the Santa Clara Valley Groundwater Basin between the Diablo Mountains to the east and the Santa Cruz Mountains to the west. The Santa Clara Valley Groundwater Basin is filled by valley floor alluvium and the Santa Clara Formation. Groundwater was not encountered during the subsurface exploration, which e�tended to a depth of 15 feet. Fluctuations in the level of the groundwater may occur due to variations in rainfall, underground drainage patterns, and other factors. Groundwater is expected to flow to the northeast, towards San Francisco Bay. 4.9.1.2 Floo�ling According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA)Flood Insurance Rate Map, the site is located within Zone X, which is defined as areas of 0.2 percent annual chance flood, areas of percent chance flood with a�erage depths of less than one foot or with drainage areas less than one square mile; and areas protected by levees from the one percent chance flood.i' 4.9.1.3 Other Inun�l�ction H�cz�cr�ls Dam Failure The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) compiles the dam failure inundation hazard maps submitted to the State Office of Emergency Services by dam owners throughout the Bay Area. 1=Santa C'lara Valle� Water Distr�ict.

Surface runoff from roads is collected by storm drains and discharged into Regnart Creelc. The runoff often contains contaminants such as oil and grease, plant and animal debris (e.g., leaves, dust, and animal feces), pesticides, litter, and heavy metals. In sufficient concentration, these pollutants have been found to adversely affect the aquatic habitats to which they drain. Under e�sting conditions, the proj ect site contains two residences with associated structures, pavement, and landscaping. Runoff from the site may contain sediment, fertilizers, and pesticides from landscaped areas, and metals, trash, oils and grease from paved areas. 4.9.1.5 Regul�ctory Setting Federal Emergency Management Agency In 1968, Congress created the National Flood Insurance Program(NFIP)in response to the rising cost of taxpayer funded disaster relief for flood victims and the increasing amount of damage caused by floods. The NFIl'malces federally-baciced flood insurance available for communities that agree to adopt and enforce floodplain management ordinances to reduce future flood damage. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) manages the NFIl' and creates Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs)that designate 100-year floodplain zones and delineate other flood hazard areas. A 100-year floodplain zone is the area that has a one in one hundred (one percent) ia Associafion of Bav Area Governments. Darix Faihrre bnr�rdatzo�r Hazard llap for C'zrperti�ro. Map.

Portions of the City are identified as special flood hazard areas with a one percent annual chance and 0.2 percent annual chance of flooding (also known as the 100-year and 500-year flood zones) as determined by the FEMA NFIP. Water Quality (Nonpoint Source Pollution Program) The federal Clean Water Act and California's Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act are the primary laws related to water quality. Regulations set forth by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the State Water Resources Control Board have been developed to fulfill the requirements of this legislation. EPA's regulations include the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)permit program, which controls sources that discharge pollutants into the waters of the United States (e.g., streams, lalces, bays, etc.). These regulations are implemented at the regional level by the water quality control boards, which for the Cupertino area is the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). Statewide Construction General Permit The State Water Resources Control Board has implemented a NPDES General Construction Permit for the State of California. For proj ects disturbing one acre or more of soil, a Notice of Intent(NO� and Storm Water Pollution Frevention Plan (SWPPP) must be prepared prior to commencement of construction. Municipal Re�ional Stormwater NPDES Permit(MRP)/C.3 Requirements The San Francisco Bay RWQCB also has issued a Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (Permit Number CAS612008) (MRP). In an effort to standardize stormwater management requirements throughout the region, this permit replaces the formerly separate countywide municipal stormwater permits with a regional permit for 77 Bay Area municipalities, including the City of Cupertino. Under provisions of the NPDES Municipal Permit, redevelopment proj ects that add and/or replace more than 10,000 square feet of impervious surface, or 5,000 square feet of uncovered parl�ing area, are required to design and construct stormwater treatment controls to treat post- construction stormwater runof£ Amendments to the MRP require all of the post-construction runoff to be treated by using Low Impact Development(LID)treatment controls, such as biotreatment facilities. The MRP also identifies subwatershed and catchment areas subj ect to hydromodification management controls. The proj ect site is located an area that is less than 65 percent impervious; however, the proj ect would not add or replace one acre of impervious surfaces and, therefore would not be subject to the hydromodification standard and associated requirements in the MRP would not be applicable.i� 16 Santa Clara Vallev Urban Runoff Pollution Frevenfion Pro�am.

In accordance with the Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit, the project will be required to treat stormwater runoff from the site prior to discharge to the storm drain system because it will add greater than 10,000 square feet of impervious surfaces. The proj ect, with the incorporation of stormwater treatment measures, is not anticipated to substantially increase runoff from the project site or exceed the capacity of the City's e�sting storm drainage system. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.9.2.2 Floo�ling As discussed previously, the project site is not within the 100-year, or one percent flood zone.

Water supply impacts of the project are addressed in Section 4.17 Utilities and Service Systems. The proj ect site does not include an in-stream groundwater recharge area and redevelopment of this site would not substantially interfere with groundwater recharge of the local aquifer used for drinl�ing water supply. Grading for the project would be limited and would not encounter groundwater on the site. The project, therefore, would not result in substantial direct or indirect impacts to groundwater resources in the area. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.9.2.5 W�cter Qu�clity Construction Related Impacts Construction of the proposed project, as well as grading and excavation activities, may result in temporary impacts to surface water quality. Project grading and construction activities would affect the water quality of storm water surface runof£ Construction of the proposed buildings and paving of streets and sidewallcs would also result in a disturbance to the underlying soils, thereby increasing the potential for sedimentation and erosion. When disturbance to underlying soils occurs, the surface runoff that flows across the site may contain sediments that are ultimately discharged into the storm drainage system. Post-Construction Impacts Redevelopment of the site would introduce new impervious surfaces, including new roofs and pa�ement. The amount of pollution carried by runoff from new residences and pa�ement, therefore, could increase. The project also would increase traffic and human activity on and around the site, generating more pollutants and increasing dust, litter, and other contaminants that could be washed into the storm drain system. The project would, therefore, generate increases in water contaminants which could be carried downstream in storm water runoff from pa�ed surfaces on the site. Stormwater from urban uses (including building rooftops) contains metals, pesticides, herbicides, and other contaminants such as oil, grease, lead, and animal waste. Runoff from the proposed project may contain increased oil and grease from parlced vehicles, as well as sediment and chemicals (i.e., fertilizers and pesticides)from the landscaped areas. Redevelopment of the proj ect site would increase the amount of urban runoff from the site that could convey pollutants to Regnart Creek, Calabazas Creek, and San Francisco Bay.

Post-Construction Measures Condition HYD— 1.2: The proj ect shall comply with Frovision C.3 of NPDES Permit Number CAS612008, which provides enhanced performance standards for the management of storm water for new development. Prior to issuance of building and grading permits, each phase of development shall include provision for post-construction structural controls in the project design in compliance with the NPDES C.3 permit provisions, and shall include BMPs for reducing contamination in storm water runoff as permanent features of the project. The project includes the incorporation of biofiltration areas to treat and reduce the amount of runoff from the site. The specific BMPs to be used in each phase of development shall be determined based on design and site-specific considerations and will be determined prior to issuance of building and grading permits. Condition HYD— 1.3: To protect groundwater from pollutant loading of urban runoff, BMPs which are primarily infiltration devices (such as infiltration trenches and infiltration basins) must meet, at a minimum, the following conditions: • Pollution prevention and source control BMPs shall be implemented to protect groundwater; • Use of infiltration BMPs cannot cause or contribute to degradation of groundwater; • Infiltration BMPs must be adequately maintained; • Vertical distance from the base of any infiltration device to the seasonal high groundwater marlc must be at least 10 feet.

Noise is measured on a"decibel" scale which serves as an index of loudness. Because the human ear cannot hear all pitches or frequencies, sound levels are frequently adjusted or weighted to correspond to human hearing. This adjusted unit is known as the"A-weighted" decibel or dBA. Although the A-weighted noise level may adequately indicate the level of environmental noise at any instant in time, community noise levels vary continuously. Most environmental noise includes a conglomeration of noise from distant sources that create a relatively steady bacicground noise in which no particular source is identifiable. To describe the time-varying character of environmental noise, the statistical noise descriptors, Loi> Lio> L;o> and L�o> are commonly used. They are the A- weighted noise levels equaled or exceeded during one, 10, 50, and 90 percent of a stated time period. A single number descriptor called the Lzq is also widely used. The Lzq is the average A-weighted noise level during a stated period of time. An A-weighted ma�mum noise level is L,,,a,. In determining the daily level of environmental noise, it is important to account for the difference in response of people to daytime and nighttime noises. During the nighttime, e�terior bacicground noises are generally lower than the daytime levels. Most people sleep at night and are very sensitive to noise intrusion. To account for human sensitivity to nighttime noise levels, a descriptor, DNL (day/night average sound level), was developed. The DNL divides the 24-hour day into the daytime of 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM and the nighttime of 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. The nighttime noise level is weighted 10 dB higher than the daytime noise level. The Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL)is another 24-hour average that includes both an evening and nighttime weighting. 4.12.1.2 Applic�cble Noise St�cn�l�cr�ls�cn�l Policies Citv of Cupertino Gehe�al Plah—Health ahd.Safet��Elehzeht The Health and Safety Element establishes goals and policies designed to minimize noise exposure at noise sensitive land uses. Applicable goals and policies of the City of Cupertino are described below. • Policy 6-61: Hours of Construction Work. Restrict non-emergency building construction work near homes during evening, early morning, and weekends by enforcing the noise regulations in the Municipal Code.

Regulate construction and maintenance activities. Establish and enforce reasonable allowable periods of the day, for weekdays, weekends and holidays for construction activities. Require construction contractors to use only construction equipment incorporating the best available noise control technology. • Goal O: Buildings designed to diminish noise • Policy 6-6-1: Building Code Sections on E�terior Noise Intrusion. Require the City Building Department to enforce all sections of the California Building Code for e�terior sound transmission control. The General Plan also establishes noise and land use compatibility guidelines (Goal L and Policy 6- �0)to evaluate the suitability of the proposed land use with respect to the e�sting or future noise environment(refer to Table 4.12-1). Single-family residential uses are considered "normally acceptable"in noise environments up to 60 dBA CNEL and "conditionally acceptable" in environments from 55 to 70 dBA CNEL. In a noise environment between 70 and 75 dBA CNEL, single-family residential land uses are considered "normally unacceptable." Above 75 dBA CNEL, this land use is considered "clearly unacceptable."

Table 4.12-2 Examples of Acceptable Brief Daytime Incidents Noise Increment Above Noise Duration in Normal Standard Two-Hour Period 5 dBA 15 Minutes 10 dBA 10 Minutes 15 dBA 5 Minutes 19 dBA 1 Minutes • Grading, Const�r�ction, and Demolition (Section 10.-18.0�3). Grading, construction, and demolition activities shall be allowed to exceed the daytime noise limits provided that the equipment utilized has high-quality noise muffler and abatement devices installed and in good condition, and the activity meets one of the following two criteria: 1)no individual device produces a noise level more than 87 dBA at a distance of 25 feet, or 2)noise level on any nearby property does not exceed 80 dBA It is a violation to engage in any grading, street construction, demolition, or underground utility work within 750 feet of a residential area on Saturday, Sundays, and holidays, and during the nighttime period, except as provided in Sections 10.48.029 and 10.48.030. Construction, other than street construction, is prohibited during nighttime periods unless it meets the nighttime standards of Section 10.48.040. 4.12.1.3 Existing Noise C'on�litions The project site is located adjacent to e�sting residential development to the east, south, and west. McClellan Road borders the site to the north. Vehicular traffic is the main source of noise in the project area. Based on the General Plan noise contours, noise levels on the site would be appro�mately 60 dBA to 65 dBA CNEL on the northern portion of the site along McClellan Road The proj ect site is not located within two miles of an airport or private airstrip, or within an airport land use plan.

CEQA does not define what noise level increase would be considered substantial. Typically, project- generated noise level increases of three(3) dBA CNEL or greater would be considered significant where e�terior noise levels would exceed the normally acceptable noise level standard. Where noise levels would remain at or below the normally acceptable noise level standard with the project, noise level increases of five (5) dBA CNEL or greater would be considered significant. Overview Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines states that a proj ect would normally be considered to result in significant noise impacts if noise levels conflict with adopted environmental standards or plans or if noise generated by the proj ect would substantially increase e�sting noise levels at sensitive receivers on a permanent or temporary basis. Based on the applicable noise standards and policies for the site, C'it� of C'upertino 72 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision �08 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts a significant noise impact would result if e�terior noise levels at proposed single-family residential land uses would exceed 65 dBA CNEL or if interior day-night average noise levels would exceed 45 dBA CNEL. Noise-producing components of the proj ect that would expose sensitive receivers to levels exceeding Municipal Code noise level standards could also result in a significant noise impact. A substantial permanent noise increase would occur if the noise level increase resulting from the project is three dBA CNEL or greater at noise-sensitive receptors, with a future noise level of 60 dBA CNEL or greater. A substantial temporary noise level increase would occur where noise from construction activities exceeds 60 dBA Lzq and the ambient noise environment by at least five dBA Lzq at noise-sensitive uses in the proj ect vicinity for a period of one year or more. 4.12.2.1 Noise Imp�ccts to the Project Exterior Noise Impacts According to the 2020 noise contours identified in the City's General Plan, noise levels on the site would exceed 60 dBA CNEL. The project, therefore, would expose people to noise levels in excess of the acceptable noise levels identified in the City's General Plan. Traffic on McClellan Road would continue to be the dominant source of noise affecting the proj ect site. Noise levels in excess of 60 dBA CNEL would e�tend appro�mately halfway through Parcel A if unobstructed by buildings on the site. The future e�terior noise environment at the project site would exceed the"normally acceptable" noise level of 60 dBA CNEL, but would fall within the"conditionally acceptable" category (up to 70 dBA CNEL) for single-family residential uses. Based on the conceptual building plan (refer to Figure 3.2-1), e�terior noise levels in the private yards of the proposed lots would only exceed 60 dBA CNEL on Parcel A. Impact NOI-1: Based on the City's General Plan noise contours, e�terior noise levels in the private yard of Parcel A would exceed the normally acceptable noise level of 60 dBA CNEL. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval,the project applicant shall be responsible for implementing the following mitigation measures to reduce e�terior noise impacts: MM NOI-1.1: Development on Parcel A shall incorporate solid fencing(e.g. high quality wood fencing with no spaces) for the rear yard to reduce noise from McClellan Road. Shielding provided by the residence and incorporation of solid fencing on Parcel A would ensure the rear yard provides e�terior open space that meets the City's General Plan. (Less Than Significant Impact with Mifigation Incorporated) Future Interior Noise Environment According to the 2020 noise contours identified in the City's General Plan, noise levels on the site would exceed 60 dBA CNEL.

Development of a residence on Parcel A would have the greatest exposure to noise levels exceeding 60 dBA CNEL. The City of Cupertino requires that interior noise levels within new residential units be maintained at or below 45 dBA CNEL. In buildings of typical construction, with the windows partially open, interior noise levels are generally 15 dBA lower than e�terior noise levels. With the windows maintained closed, standard residential construction typically provides appro�mately 20 to 25 decibels of noise reduction. For example, a unit exposed to e�terior noise levels of 62 dBA CNEL would be 47 dBA CNEL inside with the windows partially open and 42 to 37 dBA CNEL with the windows closed. Without the incorporation of forced-air mechanical ventilation interior noise levels would continue to exceed the ma�mum allowable interior sound level of 45 dBA CNEL inside the residences constructed on the site. Attaining the necessary noise reduction from e�terior to interior spaces is possible with proper wall construction techniques, the selections of proper windows and doors, and the incorporation of a forced-air mechanical ventilation system to allow the occupant the option of controlling noise by closing the windows. Impact NOI—2: E�terior noise levels are above 60 dBA CNEL at Parcel A which exceeds the City's normally acceptable noise level standard for residential development. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval,the project applicant shall be responsible for implementing the following mitigation measures to reduce interior noise impacts: MM NOI—2.1: Provide a suitable form of forced-air mechanical ventilation, as determined by the Director of Community Development, for units throughout the site, so that windows could be kept closed at the occupant's discretion to control noise and achieve the 45 dBA CNEL interior noise standard. (Less Than Significant Impact with Mitigation Incorporated) 4.12.2.2 Noise Imp�ccts From the Project Project-Generated Traffic Noise A doubling of traffic volumes on a roadway is required to increase noise levels by three(3) dBA. Given the slight increase in traffic (18 a�erage daily trips)resulting from the project and e�sting traffic volumes, noise levels in the project area would not be impacted by the proposed development. (Less Than Significant Impact) Construction-Related Noise Noise impacts resulting from construction depend on the noise generated by various pieces of construction equipment, the timing and duration of noise generating activities, and the distance between construction noise sources and noise sensitive areas. Construction noise impacts primarily result when construction activities occur during noise-sensitive times of the day (e.g., early morning, C'it� of C'upertino 74 Initial Stud� 20840 McC'lell�ul Road Rezonulg�uld Subdivision 110 Jul� 2013 Sectio�r=1.0—E�rviro�rrixe�rtal Setti�rg, C'hecklist,a�rd Disczrssio�r oflrixpacts evening, or nighttime hours), the construction occurs in areas immediately adjoining noise sensitive land uses, or when construction lasts over e�tended periods of time. Construction activities generate considerable amounts of noise, especially during earth moving activities when hea�y equipment is used. The highest maximum noise levels generated by proj ect construction would typically range from about 90 to 95 dBA at a distance of 50 feet from the noise source. Typical hourly a�erage construction generated noise levels are about 81 dBA to 88 dBA measured at a distance of 50 feet from the center of the site during busy construction periods (e.g., earth moving equipment, impact tools, etc.). Construction generated noise levels drop off at a rate of about six(6) dBA per doubling of distance between the source and receptor. Shielding by buildings or terrain often result in lower construction noise levels at distant receptors. The Municipal Code allows construction and demolition activities during daytime hours; provided, that the equipment utilized has high-quality noise muffler and abatement devices installed and in good condition, and the activity meets one of the following two criteria: 1. No individual device produces a noise level more than eighty-seven dBA at a distance of twenty-five feet(7.5 meters); or 2. The noise level on any nearby property does not exceed eighty dBA. The proj ect would require the demolition of two residences and associated structures. Remediation work on the site would also require the removal of 0.5 to 1.5 feet of topsoil from contaminated areas of the site and the importation of clean fill. Following site grading, construction activities are anticipated to include the installation of underground utilities, construction of residential foundations, building shell construction, interior finishing, and landscaping. The proj ect is anticipated to require a few months to demolish the existing development on the site and complete soil remediation and grading prior to construction of the proposed buildings. All e�terior site preparation and construction would be completed within 12 months, and once construction moves indoors, minimal noise would be generated at off-site locations. Noise generated by construction activities would temporarily elevate noise levels at adjacent noise sensitive receptors, including adj acent residences and the quasi-public uses west of the site. Given the pro�mity of residences to the site, construction noise levels could exceed one or both of the exemption criteria of 1)no individual device produces a noise level more than 87 dBA at a distance of 25 feet or 2)noise level on any nearby property does not exceed 80 dBA (Municipal Code Section 10.48.053). Impact NOI—3: Construction of the proposed proj ect would result in temporary construction- related noise impacts. (Significant Impact) Mitigation Measures: As a condition of approval,the project applicant shall be responsible for implementing the following mitigation measures to reduce construction-related noise impacts: MM NOI—3.1: Pursuant to the Municipal Code (Section 10.48.053), noise-generating activities shall be restricted at the construction site to daytime hours only.

MM NOI—3.3: Equip all internal combustion engine driven equipment with intalce and e�aust mufflers that are in good condition and appropriate for the equipment. MM NOI—3.4: Avoid the unnecessary idling of equipment and stage construction equipment as far as reasonable from residences adjacent to the site (preferably more than 200 feet from these residences). MM NOI—3.5: Stationary noise generating equipment such as air compressors or portable power generators shall be located as far as possible from sensitive receptors. MM NOI—3.6: Temporary noise barriers shall be constructed to screen stationary noise generating equipment when located near adjoining sensitive land uses. MM NOI—3.7: "Quiet" air compressors and other stationary noise sources shall be utilized by contractors where technology e�sts. MM NOI—3.8: Noise from construction worlcers' radios shall be controlled to a point that it is not audible at e�sting residences bordering the project site. MM NOI—3.9: The contractor shall prepare and submit to the City for approval a detailed construction plan identifying the schedule for major noise-generating construction activities. MM NOI—3.10: Notify all adj acent businesses, residences, and other noise-sensitive land uses of the construction schedule in writing. MM NOI—3.11: A"disturbance coordinator" who would be responsible for responding to any local complaints about construction noise shall be designated by the proj ect applicant. The disturbance coordinator will determine the cause of the noise complaint(e.g., starting too early, bad muffler, etc.) and will require that reasonable measures warranted to correct the problem be implemented. The telephone number for the disturbance coordinator shall be conspicuously posted at the construction site and included in notices sent to neighbors regarding the construction schedule.

As discussed above, the General Plan sets forth development allocations for residential uses for different areas of the City. The project site is not located in an area specifically allocated additional residential development capacity in the General Plan. The General Plan also allows for reallocation of development capacity between geographical areas of the City. The project site currently contains two residences which if replaced with the proposed three single-family residences would only require the reallocation of one dwelling unit to the project site. The proj ect proposes to allow redevelopment of the site with three new single-family residences. Conservatively using U.S. Census estimates of 2.87 residents per household in Cupertino, the project would result in a population increase of appro�mately two to eight residents on the site. The population growth associated with redevelopment of the site would not induce significant unplanned growth in housing within the City.

The proposed residences would be constructed in conformance with the appropriate Fire and Building Codes to reduce fire risk. The City requires smoke alarms in new residential development to further reduce fire rislc. Development of the proposed project would intensify the use of the project site in comparison to e�sting conditions, which may incrementally increase the number of calls for fire and police services, including medical calls. Additional service demands generated by the proposed project, however, would not require construction of additional fire or police facilities. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.14.2.2 Schools The proj ect would allow development of three single-family residences that would generate appro�mately one elementary student.'' The proj ect site is located within the Cupertino Union School District and the Fremont Union High School District. Students in the project area may attend Faria Elementary School, Lawson Middle School, and Monta Vista High School. The demand for housing in the Cupertino Union School District and in the Monta Vista High attendance area is very high. The number of students generated from the project is relatively small and would not result in substantial individual effects on school capacity. In accordance with California Government Code Section 65996, the developer shall pay a school impact fee to the Cupertino Union Elementary School District and the Fremont Union High School District to offset the increased demands on school facilities caused by the proposed project. The School Impact Fee program is considered under state law as an acceptable method of offsetting a project's effect on the adequacy of school facilities, with the individual school districts responsible for implementing school facilities improvements. The proposed project would generate new students in the local school districts. As described above, the school impact fees and property tax paid by the project would cover the cost of facility improvements and operating cost for the project-generated students. The project, therefore, would not result in a significant impact to school facilities. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.14.2.3 P�crks The proposed residential lots are each appro�mately one-fifth acre which would allow for private open space in rear yards.

The proposed lot sizes allow for substantial private open space on the site which would partially offset the need for additional neighborhood parlcs to serve the project and would also reduce and a�oid physical impacts to e�sting public gathering places in neighborhood parlcs. The proposed project shall be required to comply with the City's Municipal Code regarding parl�land dedication and/or payment of in-lieu fees to reduce impacts to parks facilities in the City. In conformance with standard practices in the City of Cupertino, the proposed project shall implement the following standard measure to reduce parlc impacts: Condition PF-1.1: The proj ect shall comply with the Municipal Code requirements for parl�land dedication and/or payment of in-lieu fees (Section 18.24.060). With implementation of the City's parl�land dedication requirements, it is unlilcely that the incremental increase in use from residential development allowed and planned for in the City's General Plan will cause significant physical deterioration of existing parlc facilities or require construction of new facilities.

San Jose Water Company (SJWC) serves appro�mately 139 square miles of the Santa Clara Valley, including most of San Jose, most of Cupertino, the entire cities of Campbell, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, the Town of Los Gatos, and parts of unincorporated Santa Clara County. SJWC relies on groundwater, imported treated water, and local surface water for its potable water supply. In 2010, SJWC received appro�mately 39 percent of its water supply from groundwater, 50 percent from imported treated water, and 12 percent from local surface water.'� Water supplies from SCVWD come from local runoff and water imports from both the Federal Central Valley Project and the California State Water Project. In 2010, SJWC delivered 133,066 acre-feet of water per year(AFY) which is expected to increase to 159,479 by 2035. The project site is served by an e�sting six-inch water line in McClellan Road. The two residences on the site are estimated to use 500 gallons of water per day.'' 4.17.1.2 Storm Dr�cin�cge The City's storm drain system is made up of underground pipelines. These pipes carry surface runoff from streets to prevent flooding. Runoff(stormwater and runoff from landscape irrigation and other urban sources) enters the system at the grated catch basins found along the curb near street intersections. Water from these pipes is discharged, untreated, directly into City creelcs. The project site is served by a 12-inch storm drain line located in McClellan Road. 4.17.1.3 W�csteiv�cter/S�cnit�cry Se�ver.System The Cupertino Sanitary District provides sewer service to the project site. The Cupertino Sanitary District collects and transports wastewater to the San Jose/Santa Clara Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP)located in north San Jose. The District purchases water treatment capacity from the plant and has purchased 7.85 million gallons per day of capacity.'g Appro�mately 5 million gallons of wastewater a day is generated within the Cupertino Sanitary District and conveyed to the WPCP.'� The City is well below their allotted capacity at the WPCP.

The project would increase water use on the site to appro�mately 750 gallons of water per day if no efficiency measures were incorporated into the project. The project will be constructed to meet CalGreen Building Code standards which include the incorporation of efficient plumbing fi�tures and irrigation controls to reduce water use on the site. The project, therefore, would not substantially increase water demand to the e�tent that new entitlements and sources of water would be required. (Less Than Significant Impact) 4.17.2.2 Storm Dr�cin�cge The proposed project may slightly increase the rate of stormwater runoff from the site. As described in Section 4.9 Hydrology and Water Quality, the project would be required to incorporate Low Impact Development(LID) stormwater treatment measures and, therefore, would not substantially increase runoff from the project site or exceed the capacity of the City's e�sting storm drainage system.

The request does not involve significant exterior modifications, however, seeks to retroactively permit the removal of a decayed wooden deck that was replaced with pervious pavers, patio equipment, and landscaping and as conditioned would be required to provide a detached sidewalk for parts of N. Foothill Soulevard and all of Stevens Creek Soulevard. Existing Site anc� Surrounc�ings The project site is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Stevens Creek Soulevard and Foothill Soulevard. � ,�; _ -aw.�.,.,.. �.�,.< _�p ���*.�*.��*' •� �� '� =� ��� � ~��'�. , :,. � '�°�'�.x.�-��''��, ��r�'��.�x'.�'�-�„— r � `�'���- Y - � �I�� ,�. � , . ,� .� �t� ., ,i- �° � ..£`.

This rezoning permitted all uses listed under the General Commercial Ordinance with the exception of restaurants, as the proposed commercial use center (previously known as the Silver Oaks West) was intended to be low intensity to avoid inhibiting the future viability of the Monta Vista commercial district (Resolution No. 1713; 8-U-77). The site is presently comprised of 45% office uses, 29% medical office, 8% commercial offices (Insurance Agency) and 17% identified as vacant. The two vacant suites, Unit 113 (Li) and Unit 101 (Kapila), are proposing medical offices which would raise the percentage of inedical office use up to 47% of the total center. DISCUSSION: Use Permit The Use Permit request is to establish office uses, including medical offices, as a permitted use in the complex. The General Commercial (CG) Ordinance requires a Use Permit at the Planning Commission level to allow non-commercial office uses, including medical, to comprise more than twenty-five percent of the building space if affecting over ten-thousand square feet. The City's Zoning Ordinance defines these offices uses to include, professional, general, administrative, business offices. To approve an application for a conditional use permit, the Commission must make the following findings: L The proposed development and/or use, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general welfare, or convenience; 2. The proposed development and/or use will be located and conducted in a manner in accord with the Cupertino Comprehensive General Plan, underlying zoning regulations, and the purpose of this title and complies with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The draft resolution (Attachment 1) explains the facts supporting these findings for this application. The discussion below provides a discussion of the issues related to the findings. Parking The City's Parking Ordinance requires 1 (one) parking space for every 175 square feet of inedical/dental office uses. However, the Parking Ordinance allows for a reduction in these standards with a parking study conducted by an independent parking/traffic consultant. The attached report (Attachment 4), produced by Hexagon Transportation Consultants, Inc, concludes that the sixty-six (66) parking spaces is adequate to handle the peak parking demand of the medical uses for this center. Architectural Site Application The applicant seeks to retroactively approve the removal and replacement of a decayed redwood deck with pervious pavers and landscaping. The proposed condition will be further enhanced with outdoor patio chairs, and tables, and umbrellas. 148 U-2013-08,ASA-2013-06,&TR-2013-35 FCCA August 27,2013 Site Improvements As conditioned, the applicant is proposing to install a detached sidewalk the full length of the property frontage along Stevens Creek Soulevard and along the edge of N. Foothill Soulevard to the point a detached design would result in a significant conflict with an underground utility box and would require increasingly high retaining walls. As conditioned, the landscaping strip shall be improved with street trees and landscaping to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works. Existing air conditional units, visible from Stevens Creek Soulevard and N. Foothill Soulevard, will be screened from view by bushes, and the large unfinished dirt hill along Foothill shall be blanketed with drought-tolerant plants. The site improvements are consistent with the City's General Plan in that detached sidewalks with a landscaped buffer in between the street and pedestrian walk are preferred as they enhance community aesthetics and improve pedestrian safety. Tree Removal Permit The detached sidewalk, as proposed, would result in the removal and replacement of one 32" diameter pine tree. Due to the size of the tree, it is not a viable candidate for transplanting. The applicant proposes to install two replacement 24-inch box Crape Myrtle trees along N. Foothill Soulevard; the final placement shall be determined prior to building permit issuance and after the location of street trees is determined. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The use permit is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines because it involves a negligible expansion of use and section 15303 (Replacement or Reconstruction) in that the removal of the deck with a paved patio and installing a detached sidewalk will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. PERMIT STREAMLINING ACT This project is subject to the Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Section 65920 — 65964). The City has complied with the deadlines found in the Permit Streamlining Act. Project received: July 25, 2013 Deemed complete: August 5, 2013 Since this project is Categorically Exempt, the City has 60 days (until September 23, 2013) to make a decision on the project. The Planning Commission's decision on this project is final unless appealed within 14 calendar days of the decision. PUBLIC NOTICING &OUTREACH The following table is a brief summary of the noticing done for this project: Notice of Public Hearing, Site Notice & Legal Ad Agenda ■ Site Signage ■ Posted on the City's official notice (14 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) bulletin board (one zveek prior to t{ie ■ Legal ad placed in newspaper {iearing) (at least 10 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) ■ Posted on the City of Cupertino's Web ■ 68 notices mailed to propert�� owners within site (one zveek prior to t{ie{iearing) 149 U-2013-08,ASA-2013-06,&TR-2013-35 FCCA August 27,2013 300 feet of the project site (10 c�ays prior to t{ie{iearing) CONCLUSION Staff recommends approval of the request since it is not anticipated to have significant impacts to the neighborhood. Additionally, all of the findings for approval of the proposed project, consistent with Chapter 14.18.180, 19.156.040 and 19.168.030 of the Cupertino Municipal Code, may be made.

March 23, 2092 Piu Ghosh City of Cupertino 10300 Torre A�enue Cupertina, CA 95D14 Re: Parking Study far '!00'!1 N. Foothill Hot�levard in Cupe�tino Dear Ms. Chosh: Hexagon Transportation Car�s�ltants, inc., nas campleted a parking stuciy far the office condo at 10Q19 N, �oot�ill Boulevard in Cupertino. The f�uilding awner has expr�ssed interest i� converting #he site i�or�t general o�ce to medical offic:e. The office building at 1001'� N. Footi�ill Baulevard co�sists of approximately 17,000 square feet of gross flaor area with 66 parking spaces provi�ed on site. The purpos� of this stu�fy is ta determine whether the existing on�ite parking supply is sufficier�t to meet the pealc hour demar�d due to the cha�ge�roposed. T�e City's Parwng Ordinance requires 1 parking s�ace for e�ery 175 square feet of inedicaUdental office us�.s. Flowever, it a4lovvs a reduction ir� these parking standsrds with a parking study canducted by an independent parkingltraffic consultant. Study Methodofogy This parking study includes manual parking occupancy counts #hat were cond�cted every �alf-hour irom 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM at four exi�ting medical ofFce sites in order to capture tlie peaK medical offce parking demand (see Appendix A} and a re�iew of t+�e fnstit[�te of 1`raffic �ngineers (�T�) standards for medicai/dental �ses. Study Results Manua!Parfcing Occupancy Counts The parking surveys were canc#ucted at four medical office sites in the nefghboring City of Sunnyva�e. T�e sites chosen are �r� 5unnyvale because there were no appropriate sites in Cupertino. The criteria for choosin�sites included having a ciistinc�parking Iot for the medical use. The parking surveys shaw peak parfcir� occupancy in the mor�iRg between 11:00 AM and 12:00 �M. The peak hour paricing demand for the August counts ha�e been adjusted for seasonal variatioh in patient v�si#s. A study in the Annals of Family Medicine finds that tt�e percentage of total patient visits is 23.4% in summer, 26.2% in fall, 25.1% in wir�ter ar�d 25.3°/a in spring based on tt�e estimated number of patient visits to L1S FaEnily Physicians per yea�by season beiween �t 996 and 1998.' Affer adjttsting for seasonal�ariation in patier�t visits,the parking dema�d generat�d for the medical o#fices was absarved ta be batween 1 car per 250 sq�are feet and 1 qr per 400 square fe�t. Because of the largs variance ir�the obsenred peak hour parking demand, the highest obser�ed peak hour par�ing ratio of 1 car per 250 square feet was �sed to represent a c:onservativ�analysis. Based on this park��g demand of 'f car per 250 sc;uare feet, the office building at 90011 N. Foothi�i 8ou[e�ard should have 88 par�itig spaces in order to meet the peak hour parking dema�d g�ne�ated by a medical ofFice building.

These rates are based an parking studies collec#ed frorn approximately 77 meciical-dental office buildi�g sites surveyed t�rougho�tE the United States a�d Canada. This indicates that the project wo�ld need B8 parking spaces. Fiowever, the average peaEc p�riod paricing demand for this type of use as determined by the f�E r�anual is 3.20 vehiclas per 1,000 squaoe feet. 8asecf on this average peak period park�ng dEmand rate, the project wo�ticf require 55 pariting spaees to accomr�odate the peak pe�iod �arking demand. Conciusion Based on the man�al par�ing survey of four sites, #he project would nesd 68 parking spaces. Mowever, it should be noted that the peak demar� for this study is hased on the �ighest parking demand ratio which has also been adjusted for seasonal�ariation to a�fow for the most canservative parking demand ratio. Qn the ot�er hand, baseci on the I�'E Parking Generation, as abserved from 77 parking surveys in the �nEted States and Canada, 55 spaces wi�l be adequate to meet the proposed project, It is our opinion that 66 spac�,s is adequat� to har�dfe the peak parking demand af #he medical uses pro�osed for this office building. We appreciate the opportunity to do this parking anaiysis for you.
