Alternative 2 — Reduced Project Alternative <br />Under this alternative, a reduction in the commercial square -footage that would be developed <br />onsite. Pursuant to discussion with City planning staff, it was determined that a reasonable decrease <br />in developed on the Project site is 100,000 SF of commercial retail and the elimination of the 250- <br />room hotel. This alternative would develop and operate 3,750 multi -family residential units, a 200- <br />room senior Iiving/'continuum of care facility, and 250,000 SF of retail and restaurant commercial <br />uses. <br />The reduction would result in the construction of 1,375 units, 200 senior living continuum of care <br />units, and 150,000 SF of commercial uses in Phase 1; including an administrative Police Department <br />substation to be located within the commercial use area. Approximately 856 units and 65,000 SF <br />of commercial uses would be constructed in Phase 2; and 1,519 units and 35,000 SF of commercial <br />uses would be constructed in Phase 3. <br />To support the reduced Project under this alternative, the same ratio of parking spaces would be <br />provided as proposed for the proposed Project. Under the Reduced Project Alternative, certain <br />offsite improvements (including storm drain upgrades, restriping, and signal installation) are <br />assumed, consistent with the proposed Project. In addition, the some amount of recreational facilities <br />and common open space would be provided as the proposed Project. <br />Like the proposed Project, this alternative would require a zoning map amendment to amend the <br />existing zoning of General Commercial (C-2) and Commercial Residential (CR) to Related Bristol <br />Specific Plan District (Draft Supplemental EIR, pp. 6-13 through 6-22). <br />Alternative 3 — Build out of the Existing Land Use and Zoning Alternative <br />Under this alternative, no zoning map amendment would occur, and the Project site would be built <br />out according to the existing zoning designations. Therefore, this alternative would include <br />development of the 23.96-acre area north of Callen's Common with only commercial uses pursuant <br />to the C-2 zoning designation, which would result in approximately 782,774 SF at the maximum <br />FAR of 0.75 with a building height of 35 feet. This alternative would provide surface parking and <br />would not develop Bristol Central Park in the northern portion of the site. <br />Also, the 17.17-acre area south of Callen's Common would be redeveloped with commercial uses <br />and mixed -uses pursuant to the CR zoning designation, which would result in approximately <br />250,000 SF of ground -floor commercial uses and office space, approximately 250 hotel rooms, <br />approximately 200 senior living continuum of care units, and 11375 multi -family units would be <br />developed to a maximum FAR of 5.0. Buildings at the northwestern corner of the CR zoned area <br />would be a maximum of 50 feet, buildings at 200 feet from adjacent residential uses would be a <br />maximum height of 100 feet. The buildings toward the southeast corner of the site would be a <br />maximum of 25 stories. Parking within areas south of Callen's Common would be underground and <br />open space within this area would be consistent with the proposed Project. <br />Overall, buildout of the Existing Zoning Alternative would develop the site with 682,774 SF more <br />commercial space than proposed by the Project, totaling 1,032,774 SF of commercial uses <br />(including an administrative Police Department substation), the same number of hotel rooms and <br />senior living/continuum of care units as the proposed Project, and 2,375 fewer residential units for <br />a total of 1,375 multi -family units(Draft Supplemental EIR, pp. 6-22 through 6-30). <br />
