The Council hereby adopts said mitigated Negative Declaration and incorporates the following mitigation measures into the project: 1. Consistent with the recommendations included in the Seismic Safety Element, a detailed soils engineering report shall be submitted at the time of building permit which considers special grading and construction techniques necessary to address the potential for liquefaction and compliance with the City Building Codes. It shall identify the soil profile on site and provide site preparation recommendations to ensure against unstable soil conditions. Grading and building must be designed and performed in compliance with the soils engineering report. 2. Oil and sand separators or other filtering media shall be installed at each drain inlet intercepting runoff as a means of filtering toxic substances from run off before it enters the creek through the storm water system. The separator must be regularly maintained to ensure efficient pollutant removal. 3. The project shall include: 0 Short- and long -term bicycle parking for employee use; C� :1 Ordinance 1380 (2001 Series) Page 2 • Shower and locker facilities for employees to encourage bicycling and walking to work (typically one shower and 3 lockers for every 25 employees) or comparable mitigation acceptable to the Air Pollution Control District Director; and • Extensive tree planting in the parking areas to help reduce evaporative emissions from automobiles. 4. The new building constructed on this site shall incorporate the following as feasible: • Energy- efficient lighting systems for both interior and exterior use; • Increased wall and attic insulation beyond Title 24 requirements; • Skylights or other means of maximizing natural daylighting; • Operable windows in employee work and break areas to maximize natural ventilation; • Lighting controls (occupancy and motion sensors); and • Dual glazed windows. If these features are not included or feasible in the design of new buildings, the project architect shall document why they were determined to be infeasible. The Community Development Director shall review this document and make a final decision as to the feasibility of incorporating these energy conserving features. 5. The new buildings shall incorporate facilities for interior and exterior on -site recycling. 6. The sewer lateral at 528 Marsh Street must be abandoned at the main prior to demolition unless the lateral is intended for reuse and it passes a video inspection.

A plan for recycling demolition and construction material waste shall be submitted with the demolition and building permit applications for review and approval by the Community Development Director. 8. If any archaeological resources are found during site preparation, all earth -work within 150 feet of object(s) shall cease until the resources have been evaluated by a qualified archaeologist.

All mitigation measures shall be clearly noted on plans submitted for a building permit application. SECTION 2. Findings. The City Council makes the following findings: 1.
