Proposed Project's impacts were largely covered in The Metro East bused Use Overlay Zone and First and Cabrillo Towers EIR. This analysis addresses any changes to the impacts that were identified in The Metro East Mixed Use Overlay Zone and First and Cabrillo Towers EIR that could potentially occur with the less intense Proposed Project. Aesllielra The Proposed Project is less dense and will result in less development on the 5.1 acre site than the Approved Project. The approved First and Cabrillo Towers project allows the construction of 027,547 square feet of residential use within two towers (22 story "North Tower" and a 23 story "South Tower" with 374 residential units), whereas the Project proposes 240 residential units in a five -story building and a three -story building and 14 ground level townhomes. The Proposed Project would improve the line of sight across the site from surrounding areas as the height of the proposed five -story and three -story buildings are lower in height than the 23 and 22 story buildings that are approved for the site. The Proposed Project would not negatively impact the aesthetics of the site because it proposes less density than the approved Project. Furthermore, the Proposed Project would generate less light and glare dran the approved Project since there will be less development. The Proposed Project would have no nesdtetic impacts compared to the approved Project. AgtrcultYiWRa auto Like the approved Project, the Proposed Project will not have any agricultural resource impacts because there is no agricultural activity on or adjacent to the site. 'the Proposed Project will have no impact to agricultural resources consistent -with the analysis for the Project. The Proposed Project is consistent with the analysis in the March 19, 2007 EIR, Air„Qranlily The Proposed Project will reduce operational air emissions compared to the approved Project because there will be less development. As a result, the Proposed Project will have a positive air quality impact because fewer air emissions will be generated throughout the life of the project. The short -term construction emissions will also be less because there is less development and the tone to construct the project will be less. The Local Significant Thresholds (LST) generated during project construction will not exceed thresholds and therefore, the LST emissions will not be significant. The Proposed Project will not exceed any South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQbID) thresholds and will have a positive impact on air quality compared to the approved Project because fewer air emissions will be generated. The main source of potential odors by the Proposed Project, like the approved Project, will be trash receptacles within the project. The incorporation of Mitigation Measure MbI -OZ 4.2 -1 of the Metro East Mixed Use Overlay Zone, First and Cabrillo Towers Volume II E1R will reduce odor impacts by the Proposed Project to less than significant. The Proposed Project will have less than significant air quality impacts. 1901 East First Street— Addendum August 14, 2019 75A -103 Page G
