City Place Sky Lofts Final Environmental Impact Report Findings 4.2.4 GEOLOGY AND SOILS IMPACTS RELATED TO GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS 4.2.4.1 Potentially Significant Adverse Impacts Related to Geotechnical Conditions As discussed in Section 4.5 (Geology and Soils) of the EIR, implementation of the City Place Sky Lofts project could result in significant adverse impacts related to geotechnical conditions. In addition, results of the settlement analyses indicated that the potential exists for significant differential settlement between the tower and town home portions of the proposed project. 4.2.4.2 Finding Related to Geotechnical Conditions Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. 4.2.4.3 Facts in Support ofthe Finding Related to Geotechnical Conditions With implementation of mitigation measures G-1 and G-2, provided below, the potential for significant adverse impacts related to geotechnical conditions would be less than significant. G-1 Prior to issuance of a gading permit, a Final geotechnical report that addresses site- specific geotechnical considerations will be submitted to the City Engineer for approval. G-2 Recommendations for grading/earthwork, surface, and subsurface drainage, temporary and/or permanent dewatering, foundations, pavement structural sections, seismic design, and other pertinent, geotechnical design considerations will be formulated and will be included in the grading and building plans for the proposed project. 4.2.4.4 Level of Significance of Impacts Related to Geotechnical Conditions The adverse impacts of the City Place Sky Lofts project related to geotechnical conditions will be mitigated to below a level of significance with implementation of mitigation measures G-I and G-2. 4.2.5 GEOLOGY AND SOILS IMPACTS RELATED TO EROSION AND LOSS OF TOPSOIL 4.2.5.1 Potentially Significant Adverse Impacts Related to Erosion and Loss of Topsoil As discussed in Section 4.5 (Geology and Soils) of the EIR, implementation of the City Place Sky Lofts project could result in significant adverse impacts related to erosion and loss oftopsoil. 4.2.5.2 Finding Related to Erosion and Loss of Topsoil Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. 4.2.5.3 Facts in Support ofthe Finding Related to Erosion and Loss of Topsoil With implementation of mitigation measure W-3, provided below, the potential for significant adverse impacts related to erosion and loss of topsoil would be less than significant.
