(Continued) <br /> <br />XIX. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />xx. <br /> <br />XXI. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The EIR does not specifically deal with the continued use <br />and enjoyment of the property of the neighborhood residents <br />in conjunction with the proposed development. Not only the <br />failure to notify these residents but more importantly the <br />failure to analyze or mitigate the impact of this proposed <br />development is vol~tive of CEOA and its fundamental purposes. <br /> <br />INADEQUATE CONSIDERATION OF GEOLOGY AND SUBSIDENCE ISSUES <br /> <br />The area of the Proposed Development is subject to subsidence. <br />See "Preliminary Review of Geologic Soils Conditions in <br />Area of the General Plan," City of Orange, April 10,1971, <br />F. Beach Leighton & Associates. The impacts of this condition <br />must be addressed in the Final EIR. <br /> <br />The failure of the Final EIR to analyze the stability of the <br />earth is especially significant in light of proposed under- <br />ground parking and multi-story commercial office development <br />adjacent to residential areas, <br /> <br />INADEQUATE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS <br /> <br />The Final EIR fails to provide adequate responses to the comments <br />'on the draft EIR. None of the City's,concerns are adequately <br />answered. Moreover, no response at all is given to Cal Trans' <br />disclosure that there is no funding for additional freeway ramps. <br />The Response to Comments should have been recirculated in light <br />of the new information presented in the co~~ents and responses. <br /> <br />CONCLUSION <br /> <br />In light of the aforementioned concerns, the City of Orange <br />respectfully requests the following procedures for the further <br />consideration of the Fashion Square project. <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br />Additional details should be provided forthwi'_h <br />concerning plans for the Proposed Development; <br /> <br />2. <br /> <br />The EIR should be supplemented to analyze the <br />environmental consequences associated with the <br />development in light of this additional detail; <br /> <br />the EIR should also be supplemented in light of the <br />concerns addressed in this letter; <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />\<1 <br />
