AGENDA DEPORT
FOR
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FINAL NIAP'FOR THE RIDGEVIEW HEIGHTS SU>aDI"SION
1. EXECUTIyE SummARY.
Ridgeview Heights is a 9 -lot subdivision with a remainder'parcel located off of Sunnyslope Road. The
subdivision received tentative map approval on December 21, 2000. On February 20, 2001,'the City
Council approved resolution 200.1 -.044 therein deleting the condition of approval from resolution 00 -221
requiring the dedication and construction of a bicycle /pedestrian path: from Sunnysloope Road to
Sunnyhill Drive. Site Plan and Architectural Review Committee applications for individual lots have
been submitted to the Community Development Department and can be approved once the lots are
created, upon final map recordation.
2. BACKGROUND
The project applicant, Linda Beafie, is requesting final map approval for the project. The final map,
improvement plans and landscape plans have been designed to comply with all conditions of approval
set forth in the tentative map approval resolution and the mitigated negative declaration approval
resolution as well as all pertinent !City standards.
3. ALTERNATIVES
Disapprove the final map
4. FINANCIAL IMPACTS
The developer has, posted bonds and agreements to complete the public improvements, estimated to be
$227,725.00. The developer is'responsible for all costs of public improvements and, once completed and
accepted by the City, the improvements will be -dedicated to the City for maintenance. There is no cost
to the City for construction of public improvements other than plan review and inspection services by
City personnel. This plan review and inspection cost is covered by t he Engineering fees already
collected' with the project application (4% of the estimated $227,725.00 = $9,109.00 paid to the City for
inspection and plan review)."
5. CONCLUSION
The developer has met all the? requirements of the City to obtain City Council final map approval. Once
the final map is approved, SPARC applications are approved and the necessary building permits are
• issued, construction should commence immediately.

Resolution No. 00� -220 N.C.S.
of the City of Petaluma, California
• ADOPTING A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
AND 1VII'ITGATION 'lOrI'ONITORING REPORT
FOR RIDGE VIEW HEIGHTS TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP
AND PUD DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, A NINE LOT SUBDIVISION WITH
A REMAINDER, APN 019- 201 =006 & 025
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed Tentative
Subdivision Map, PUD Development Standards, and,Mitigated Negative Declaration, on June 22,
1999, after giving notice of said hearing in the manner, for the period, and in the form required by
Ordinance No. 1072 N.C.S., as amended; and ,
WHEREAS, at the end of the June 22nd public hearing "the; Planning Commission voted 6 -0 to
recommend that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and approve the
proj ect; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held public hearings on the proposed project on August 16th,
August 23 November 15, 1999, and May 1.5, 2000 and additional deliberations following the
close of the public hearing, on November 20' and _December 11, 2000 after giving notice of said
hearing, in themanner, for th&period,, and in the form required by Ordinance No. 1072 N.C.S., as
• amended; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that, pursuant° to Article 6, Negative Declaration Process, of
the California Environmental, Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the requirements. of CEQA have
been satisfied through the preparation of an Initial Study; and that a Mitigated Negative
Declaration is appropriate to the project; based on the following findings:
That based upon the Initial Study, potential impacts resulting from the project have been
identified. Mitigation measures have been proposed and agreed to by the applicant as a
condition, of project approval that will reduce potential impacts to less than significant. In
addition, there is no substantial ,evidence that supports a fair argument that the project, as
conditioned and mitigated, would have a significant effect on the environment.
2. That the project does not have the potential to affect wildlife resources as defined in the
State Fish and Game Code, either individually or cumulatively, and is exempt from Fish
and Game filinzfees because it is proposed on a partially .developed site Arid is surrounded
by existing residential development, with none of the resources as defined in the Code.
That the project is not located on a site listed on any Hazardous Waste Site List compiled
by the State,Pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the California Government Code.
4. That the Planning Commission reviewed the Initial Study and considered public comments
• before making a recommendation on the project, and found that a Mitigated Negative
Declaration "is appropriate to the project.
Reso. 00 -220 NCS Page 1
5. That the record of proceedings of the decision on the project is available for public review
at the City of Petaluma Planning Department, City Mall, 11 English Street; Petaluma,
California.
6. That a previous Environmental Impact Report (Proposed Sunnyslope Assessment District
and Annexation EIR, accepted by the City Council in 1991, adequately evaluated the
environmental impacts of the project and mitigation measures were adopted to . reduce
potentially significant impacts to less than significant. Based on the Initial 'Study prepared
for the current Ridge View Heights project, no new significant environmental impacts will
result which were not previously evaluated, and therefore, a subsequent EIR need not be
prepared.
7. That. the mitigation measures adopted with the previous EIR shall still apply to the Ridge
View Heights project.
S. That based on the evidence in the record presented during the course of the public
hearings before the City Council,, the City Council has determined that the proposed
development will have traffic, traffic safety and air quality impacts resulting from
anticipated vehicle trips on the local road system and has determined ' that a
bicycle /pedestrian connection` between,Sunnyslope.Road and SunnyhillDrivewill,mtigate
those impacts to a level that is less than significant. Said evidence of potential
environmental impacts includes;_:
a) The average single - family household generates 10' vehicle trips per day; or 90
potential trips per day for the proposed 9 -lot subdivision (Institute of
Transportation Engineers, Trip Generation Manual, 6 Edition,. 1997 ) ;
b) Most daily vehicle trips are less than five miles in length and as a result generate far
more air pollution than trips in excess of five miles (California Air Resources
Board, "Land Use Air Quality Linkage ", 1997, p.2) .
c) Each one- pecent reduction in vehicle trips can result in a two to four- percent
reduction in air pollution emissions (Victoria Transport Policy Institute
"Quantifying the Benefits of Non- Motorized Transport", 1999; p.4);
d) A lack of safe, convenient bicycle /pedestrian connections between neighborhoods
and schools; shopping, parks and other facilities "thwart attempts to increase
walking and bicycling and force pedestrians and :bicyclists onto arterial and
collector streets" (Petaluma Bicycle -Plan, p. 5); increasing the potential for
conflicts with motor vehicles and the potential for accidents.
NOW, TBEEREFORk BE IT RESOLVE D that the City Council of the City of`Petaluma does
hereby adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for Ridge View Heights, 'located at.APN 0,19 -201-
006 and 025 on Sunnyslope Road, subject to the following'Mitigation Measures as outlined in the

5 Findings

7 8. That based on the evidence in the record presented during the 'course of the public
8 hearings before the City 'Council, the City Council has determined that the proposed
9 development will have traffic traffic safety and air quality ;impacts resulting from
10 anticipated vehicle trips on' the' local road system and has determined that a
11 bicycle /pedestrian connection between Sunnyslope Road and Sunnyhill Drive will
12 mitigate those impacts to a level that is less than significant. Said evidence of potenti al
13 environmental impacts includes:
14 a) The average single - family household generates 10 vehicle trips, per, day,. or 90
15 potential trips per day' for the proposed 9 -lot subdivision. ( Institute of
16 Transportation Engineers, Trip Generation Manual, 6 th Edition 1997)
17 b) Most daily vehicle trips are.,less than five miles in length and as a result generate
18 far more air pollution than trips in excess of five miles ('California Air Resources
1.9 Board, "Land Use Air Quality Linkage ", 19.97; p.2)
20 c) Each one - percent reduction in vehicle trips can result in a two to. four- percent.
21 reduction in air pollution 'emissions (Victoria Transport Policy Institute,
22 ".Quantifying the Benefits of Non- Motorized Transport", 1999, p.4);
23 d) A lack of safe, 'convenient bicycle /pedestrian connections between neighborhoods
24 and schools, shopping, parks and other facilities "thwart attempts to increase
25 walking and bicycling and force pedestrians . and bicyclists onto arterial .and,
26 collector streets" (Petaluma Bicycle Plan, p. 5), increasing the potential for
27 conflicts with motor vehicles and the potential for accidents.
