1 VII. REPORTS.
2 A. Planning Commission Special Meeting-January 30 1996 Requests from Ste Marie
3 Company. for Apache Redevelopment. for:
4 1. Subdivision,
5 Commissioner Horst was present to report on the Planning Commission special meeting
6 of January 30, 1996. Horst reported a public hearing was held that evening to consider an
7 application for subdivision of land by the Ste. Marie Corporation. Horst stated the
8 Planning Commission moved and approved unanimously the application for subdivision
9 for the property known as Apache Plaza as long as all twelve issues identified in a
10 January 24, 1996 letter to the Planning Commission by legal counsel William Soth are
11 resolved by the City of St. Anthony administration.
12 Mr. Doug Jones, 2505 Silver Lane N.E., requested that an easement be set aside on the
13 two lots occupied by Taco Bell and Tires Plus that would require that when the lots were
14 sold storm water drainage would be installed.
15 Mr. Jay Scott, Opus Corporation, stated Opus Corporation is not currently planning to
16 address the storm water ponding and drainage needed in those two lots. There is however
a pond planned for that area. When it is determined how those lots will be redeveloped,
it an appropriate location for the ponding will be determined.
19 Mr. Jones again.requested that an agreement be included as a condition to the subdivision
20 tfiai if the use of the buildings change or the'property is sold by Ste. Marie Corporation
21 storm water drainage be required to.be installed.
22 Wagner noted installment of storm water drainage would only be required if there was
23 reconstruction involved.
24 City Attorney William Soth noted nothing could be required with respect to the Taco Bell
25 lot or the Tires Plus lot unless Ste. Marie Corporation initiates reconstruction of the lots.
26 Mr. Jones stated he was very supportive of the proposed plan but would like to see a
27 provision put in which would state that at a future date the ponding requirements must be
28 met or an easement be put aside for placement of the ponding.
29 Mr. Scott indicated Opus Corporation was committed to meeting the current Rice Creek
30 Watershed District requirements. Drainage ponds for that area will be addressed by the
31 City Council when future development occurs.
Mr. Soth stated there will be two agreements relating to this issue. One is the reciprocal
easement agreement. The other is the pond maintenance agreement. These two
34 documents tie all the lots together on these matters.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
February 13, 1996
Page 4
1 Mr. Stan Guzak, Jr., President of the Silver Lake Homeowner's Association expressed
2 concern that if the subdivision is granted, each lot will have their own title. Opus
3 Corporation will develop the largest piece and address the drainage but the other two lots
4 will be separate issues.
5 Mayor Ranallo indicated that was not the case. If Opus Corporation redevelops the other
6 part of the property, they will be required to install drainage ponds. This is not marked
7 on the drawing because it is not clear where it will fit in with the design. It will be
8 included on the final plat.
9 Mr. David Greening, lawyer for Ste. Marie Corporation, explained Tires Plus is already a
10 separate legal distinct lot. Even as it sits today, it could be sold. Taco Bell is part of a
11 larger lot which will be reconfigured. He stated redevelopment of the main portion of the
12 shopping center is expected to occur and the Rice Creek Watershed District will be
13 looking at the whole area.
14 Mr. Soth concurred that a requirement of further development will be to install additional
15 pondage. The pond maintenance agreement will require the two lots to be responsible for
16 a proportional share of the ponds now and future ponding. So if a lot is sold,the new
17 owner will still be obligated. This will run with the title of the property. The reciprocal •
18 easement agreement also ties the lots together for common maintenance.
19 Motion by Marks, second by Enrooth to approve the subdivision for the property known
20 as Apache Plaza as long as all twelve issues identified in a January 24, 1996 letter to the
21 Planning Commission by legal counsel William Soth are resolved by the City of St.
22 Anthony administration.
23 Motion carried unanimously.
24
25 2. Variances for Zero Lot Line Placement and Side Yard Setback.
26 Motion by Marks, second by Faust to approve a 10 foot sideyard/zero lot line request for
27 the property known as Apache Plaza, Lot 7.
28 Motion carried.unanimously.
29 3. Comprehensive Sign Package,
30 Morrison noted it was not reflected in the Planning Commission meeting minutes that
31 Commissioner Gondorchin motioned to approve the comprehensive sign package with
32 the exception that all proposed ground signs comply with City code. City code states the
33 maximum size allowed for ground signs is 8 feet by 8 feet. Opus Corporation is
34 requesting ground signs of 8 feet by 12 feet. .
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
February 13, 1996
. Page 5
1 Motion by Marks, second by Wagner to approve the Comprehensive Sign Plan for
2 Apache Plaza with the ground signs at 8' X 12'. A total of 5 ground signs were proposed
3 at 8' X 12'. Additional ground signs could be erected as allowed by ordinance,however,
4 those signs would have to meet code regulations.
5 Motion carried unanimously.
6 Mr. Jones expressed his concern about traffic. He stated he lives on Silver Lane and was
7 concerned about the additional traffic which would be generated. He asked that
8 directional.signs be installed to direct the traffic into the shopping center rather than onto
9 residential streets.
10 VIII. PUBLIC HEARING.
11 A. Vacation of Public Easements Relating to Apache Redevelopment(Resolution 96-015).
12 Mayor Ranallo opened the public hearing at 7:39 p.m.
13 Mr. Greening explained this was an old easement document granting the City easements
14 for utilities such as water, sewer and drainage coming in off Silver Lake Road. Public
Works Director Larry Hamer felt it would be appropriate to vacate the existing easements
qP6 so that when the service came onto private property it would be the responsibility of the
17 developer and owner of the property. Maintenance of the easements will be addressed in
18 the reciprocaleasement agreement and will be included as part of the plat. The only - -
19 exception is the requirement for an easement created by the subdivision for the storm
20 water outlet or drain pipe. It is important to the City that the owner or developer be
21 responsible for the pipe which feeds in. The City wants to ensure that the water coming
22 out is feeding into the pond and draining correctly.
23 Mr. Soth stated he has consulted with Public Works Director Larry Hamer and he is
24 satisfied that there are not any easements that the City wants to retain. The City would
25 like to be rid of the easement as they do not want the maintenance responsibility.
26 Mayor Ranallo closed public hearing at 7:44 p.m.
27 Motion by Enrooth, second by Marks to adopt Resolution 96-015, regarding approving
28 vacating road easements within property known as Apache Plaza in the City of St.
29 Anthony.
30 Motion carried unanimously.
31
Mayor Ranallo thanked Joan Ahrens, Super Valu, and all.others involved in this process
*3 for their hard work and dedication to this project.

10 separate legal distinct lot. Even as it sits today, it could be sold. Taco Bell is part of a
11 larger lot which will be reconfigured. He stated redevelopment of the main portion of the
12 shopping center is expected to occur and the Rice Creek Watershed District will be
13 looking at the whole area.
14 Mr. Soth concurred that a requirement of further development will be to install additional
15 pondage. The pond maintenance agreement will require the two lots to be responsible for
16 a proportional share of the ponds now and future ponding. So if a lot is sold,the new
17 owner will still be obligated. This will run with the title of the property. The reciprocal •
18 easement agreement also ties the lots together for common maintenance.
19 Motion by-Marks;second by Enrooth to approve the subdivision for the property known .
20 as Apache Plaza aong as all twelve issues identified ina January 24, 1996 letter to the'-
21 Planning Commission by legal counsel William Soth are resolved by the City of St.
22 Anthony administration.
23 Motion carried unanimously.

25 2. Variances for Zero Lot Line Placement and Side Yard Setback.
26 Motion by Marks, second by Faust to approve a 10 foot sideyard/zero lot line request for
27 the property known as Apache Plaza, Lot 7.
28 Motion carried unanimously.
29 3. Comprehensive Sign Package,
30 Mornson noted it was not reflected in the Planning Commission meeting minutes that
31 Commissioner Gondorchin motioned to approve the comprehensive sign package with
32 the exception that all proposed ground signs comply with City code. City code states the
33 maximum size allowed for ground signs is 8 feet by 8 feet. Opus Corporation is
34 requesting ground signs of 8 feet by 12 feet.

2 Apache Plaza with the ground signs at 8' X 12'. A total of 5 ground signs were proposed
3 at 8' X 12'. Additional ground signs could be erected as allowed by ordinance, however,
4 those signs would have to meet code regulations.

6 Mr. Jones expressed his concern about traffic. He stated he lives on Silver Lane and was
7 concerned about the additional traffic which would be generated. He asked that
8 directional signs be installed to direct the traffic into the shopping center rather than onto
9 residential streets.
10 VIII. PUBLIC HEARING.
11 A. Vacation of Public Easements Relating to Apache Redevelopment Resolution 96-0151.
12 Mayor Ranallo opened the public hearing at 7:39 p.m.
13 Mr. Greening explained this was an old easement document granting the City easements
14 for utilities such as water, sewer and drainage coming in off Silver Lake Road. Public
Works Director Larry Hamer felt it would be appropriate to vacate the existing easements
0 so that when the service came onto private property it would be the responsibility of the
17 developer and owner of the property. Maintenance of the easements will be addressed in
18 the reciprocal easement agreement and will be included as part of the plat. The only--
19 exception is the requirement for an easement created by the subdivision for the storm
20 water outlet or drain pipe. It is important to the City that the owner or developer be
21 responsible for the pipe which feeds in. The City wants to ensure that the water coming
22 out is feeding into the pond and draining correctly.
23 Mr. Soth stated he has consulted with Public Works Director Larry Hamer and he is
24 satisfied that there are not any easements that the City wants to retain. The City would
25 like to be rid of the easement as they do not want the maintenance responsibility.
26 Mayor Ranallo closed public hearing at 7:44 p.m.
27 Motion by Enrooth, second by Marks to adopt Resolution 96-015, regarding approving
28 vacating road easements within property known as Apache Plaza in the City of St.
29 Anthony.
30 Motion carried unanimously.

Mayor Ranallo thanked Joan Ahrens, Super Valu,and all others involved in this process

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS, FINDINGS OF FACT, AND RECORD OF DECISION
SILVER LAKE CENTER COMMERCIAL REDEVELOPMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET (EAW)
INTRODUCTION
The Ste. Marie Company(SMC) is proposing a phased redevelopment of Apache Plaza in the City of St.
Anthony Village, Minnesota. An Environmental Assessment Worksheet(EAW)was prepared pursuant to
Minnesota Rules 4410.4300 Subp. 14(B). The EAW, comments received on the EAW,and other pertinent
materials have been reviewed in accordance to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 in order to determine if the
proposed project has the potential for significant environmental effects. The following includes responses
to all of the comments received by the City of St. Anthony Village(City), Findings of Fact supporting the
decision, and the Record of Decision indicating an Environmental Impact Statement(EIS) is not necessary
for this project.
RESPONSE TO COMMENTS
EAW Notification, Distribution, and Comment Period
In accordance with Minnesota Rules 4410.1500, the EAW was completed and distributed on January 10,
1996 to all persons'and agencies on the official Environmental Quality Board(EQB)mailing list and other
interested parties. The notification was published in the EQB Monitor on January 15, 1996, initiating the
30-day public comment period. The comment period ended on February 14, 1996.
Comments Received and Response
U.S.Army Corps of Engineers, Timothy Fell, January 17, 1996
The Corps confirmed that the project is not within the regulatory jurisdiction of the Corps of Engineers.
Response: So noted for the record. The project proposer and the RGU appreciate the Corps'
prompt response.
Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation District, Tom Peterson, January 31, 1996
The Ramsey SWCD stated that, "based on the information contained in the EAW and discussions with
Ramsey County Public Works Personnel and Rice Creek Watershed District staff, it appears,with the
addition of four storm water management ponds,that the redevelopment plan may be an improvement
over current stormwater management conditions at the site." SWCD staff recommended that the Rice
Creek Watershed District's ponding requirements be utilized for ponding design, and, if at all possible
and feasible, that the ponds be maximized to improve nutrient removal. The SWCD also stated that
soil erosion and sediment control during project construction will be critical.
Response: It is the intent of the project proposers to minimize the short and long-term
downstream water quality impacts associated with this project to the extent practicable. As
stated in the EAW, modeling results indicate the project will reduce peak runoff rates from the
existing conditions for both the interim and ultimate redevelopment proposal. The results
• predict a 26 percent reduction in phosphorus runoff from the 54-acre tributary watershed(a

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS, FINDINGS OF FACT, AND RECORD OF DECISION
SILVER LAKE CENTER COMMERCIAL REDEVELOPMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET (EAW)
small portion of the drainage area is outside the subject property)following the construction of
the first three ponds (Phase ]). The inclusion of the fourth basin will result in further
stormwater discharge rate reductions and will provide a 45 percent total reduction in
phosphorus discharge relative to existing conditions. All stormwater ponding will meet or
exceed RCWD permitting standards.
As stated in the E4 W, all site grading and erosion control activities are subject to Rice Creek
Watershed District(RCWD) and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permits and will comply with pertinent requirements as described in the required Grading and
Erosion Control Plan which will likely incorporate multiple Best Management Practices (BMP).
Because the site lacks steep slopes and numerous BMPs will be implemented, significant adverse
impacts from construction-related sediment and erosion are not expected.
Minnesota Historical Society, Bdtta Bloomberg, February 2. 1996
The Minnesota Historical Society indicated that the probability of unknown historical or archeological
properties being present on the site is low, and therefore the"no"response to question 26a is
appropriate.
Response: So noted for the record. The project proposer and the RGU appreciate confirmation
of the accuracy of the EAW with respect to Item 26a.
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Thomas W. Balcom, February 14, 1996
The DNR stated"we have no comments to offer at this time. Preparation of an EIS is not required in
our opinion."
Response: So noted for the record.
Minnesota Department of Health. Patricia Bloomgren, February 14, 1996
The MDH offered the following comments:
1. Please remember that any new[water supply] wells must be installed by a licensed well contractor
and meet all other requirements.
Response: The site is and will continue to be connected to the City of St. Anthony Village public
Water Supply. And, as such, no new water supply wells will be installed..
2. Any unused, unsealed wells(including monitoring wells)must be sealed by a licensed well
contractor and, in accordance with Minnesota Rules, brought into operating conditions. A site
evaluation is recommended to specifically determine if any unused, unsealed wells(s)exist on this
property. Particular attention should be given to the area where a farmstead might have been
located.

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS, FINDINGS OF FACT, AND RECORD OF DECISION
SILVER LAKE CENTER COMMERCIAL REDEVELOPMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET(EAW)
Response: When MPCA requirements are satisfied, the three monitoring wells located behind the
New Market building will be abandoned in accordance with all applicable local, state, and
federal regulations. If circumstances require, the monitoring wells may be abandoned and
relocated in order to accommodate building demolition and site redevelopment. As stated in the
EA W, if any abandoned wells or septic fields associated with the abandoned farmstead are
encountered during site redevelopment, these systems will be properly abandoned.
3. Please be aware that removal of friable asbestos-containing materials and materials that will
become friable during removal must be performed by companies licensed by the MDH. In
addition,the mandatory safe work practices must be used to do the removal.
Response: As stated in the E4 W, all asbestos materials will be removed from the buildings
demolished during redevelopment excluding Category 1 non friable materials. The MPCA and
U.S Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) will be notified prior to building demolition, all
activities will be conducted by licensed contractors, and all applicable rules and regulations will
be followed.
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Paul Hoff, February 16, 1996
The MPCA stated"the information provided appears to properly identify the potential environmental
effects of the project and appropriate mitigation. The MPCA does not recommend the preparation of
an Environmental Impact Statement." The MPCA also noted that"Phase 1 grading . . . will require the
construction of temporary stormwater storage before construction is started."
Response: So noted for the record. Temporary stormwater storage will be incorporated into the
grading and erosion control plan and the project will comply with NPDES requirements.

FINDINGS OF FACT
Project Description
Proposed Project
The Silver Lake Center Commercial Redevelopment involves redevelopment of Apache Plaza, and is
ultimately planned to include 306,600 s.f of new/renovated retail space and four stormwater ponds.
Initiating in spring of 1996, Phase 1 will include partial demolition of the existing mall, construction of
a 75,200 s.f supermarket, development of two lots, and installation of three stormwater ponds. The
table below summarizes the proposed redevelopment.

1 This use is proposed to occur within the 9.23-acre Cub Foods site.
2 Approximately 60,000 s.f. of the Department Store building includes renovation of existing
facilities.
3 Combine this lot acreage with the existing uses (First Bank,Taco Bell, and Tires Plus --
approximately 1.96 acres)to obtain the total site area of 50.8 acres.
Minnesota Rules 4410:4300 Subp. 14(B) state that the mandatory EAW threshold for"construction of
a new or expansion of an existing industrial, commercial, or institutional facility"in a fourth class city
is 200,000 square feet (s.f.). Because 60,000 s.f. of the proposed project is renovation of an existing
facility, this multi-phased project involves the construction of new commercial space totaling 246,600
s.f. This exceeds the mandatory EAW threshold by 46,600 s.f.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET(EAW)
• Site Description and Existing Conditions
The site is located in the Southwest Quarter of Section 31,Township 30 North, Range 23 West,
Ramsey County, City of St. Anthony village, Minnesota. The site encompasses 50.8 acres and is
dominated by the Apache Plaza building, parking lot, and associated buildings. An abandoned health
club is located directly north of the main Apache Plaza building. Only approximately 142,400 s.f of
pervious surface exists on the site, which predominantly includes an area of mowed grass along the
north-western portion of the property. A strip center called Apache New Market Plaza is located
southwest of the main mall building. In addition, a Tires Plus,Taco Bell, First Bank, and additional
paved parking areas are located along the Silver Lake Road frontage.
Criteria Used in Deciding Whether the Project has the Potential for Significant Environmental
Effects
Criteria A: Type, Extent. and Reversibility Of Environmental Effects
According to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 Subp. 7 (A)the first factor that the City must consider is the
"type, extent, and reversibility of environmental effects." The City's findings are set forth below.
1. Project Site. The site is an existing mall with extremely limited pervious area. A number of
"environmental conditions"outlined in the EAW were observed on the site. In response to these
• observed conditions,a number of studies and remediation actions have been conducted.
Accordingly, all of the known environmental conditions have been addressed adequately in
accordance with MPCA and other state and local standards.
2. Fish,Wildlife, and Ecologically Sensitive Resources. The proposed project will not have a
negative impact on habitat or natural resources. The proposed stonnwater management practices
will likely improve habitat in Silver Lake.
3. Water Resources. No direct impacts to water resources are proposed. Indirect downstream
impacts are discussed below.
4. Water Use. The site will be connected to the St. Anthony Village public water supply. The
demand per day will be typical of retail/commercial developments of this sort and is expected that
the quantity of water used will be approximately 32,232 gallons per day on a maximum potential
average daily basis. No adverse effects on public water supply are anticipated.
5. Water-related Land Use Management Districts. No special shoreland districts apply.
6. Soils. The site's soils are compatible for the proposed uses.
7. Erosion and Sedimentation. All site grading and erosion control activities are subject to Rice
Creek Watershed District(RCWD)and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permits and will comply with pertinent requirements as described in the required Grading
• and Erosion Control Plan which will incorporate multiple Best Management Practices (BMP).

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS, FINDINGS OF FACT, AND RECORD OF DECISION
SILVER LAKE CENTER COMMERCIAL REDEVELOPMENT
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET(EAW)
• Because the site lacks steep slopes and BMPs will be implemented, significant adverse impacts
from construction-related sediment and erosion are not expected.
8. Water Quality-Surface Water Runoff. The project. vill reduce peak runoff rates and improve
runoff water quality relative to existing conditions. Modeling results predict a 26 percent reduction
in phosphorus runoff from the 54-acre tributary watershed (a small portion of the drainage area is
outside the subject property) following the construction of the first three ponds (Phase 1). The
inclusion of the fourth basin will result in further stormwater discharge rate reductions and will
provide a 45 percent total reduction in phosphorus discharge relative to existing conditions. All
stormwater ponding will meet or exceed RCWD permitting standards and significant, negative
downstream impacts are not anticipated.
9. Water Quality-Wastewaters. Wastewater will be typical of developments of this sort and the
estimated maximum potential wastewater production is 31,963 gallons per day. All wastewater
will be conveyed to the City's sanitary sewer system and no adverse impacts are anticipated.
10. Ground Water- Potential for Contamination. Although some groundwater beneath the
southwest portion of the site is known to contain low levels of petroleum contaminants from an off-
site source, the proposed project is not expected to increase the potential for future releases of
contaminants that could impact groundwater below the site because(1)substantial site cleanup has
and will occur as a direct result of this redevelopment, (2)the majority of the site will be covered
by impervious surfaces, (3)the proposed underground storage tanks will be installed and monitored
• in accordance with MPCA standards,and(4)all wastewater will be conveyed to the sanitary sewer
system.
11. Solid Wastes; Hazardous Wastes; Storage Tanks. It is anticipated that solid waste generation
will be typical of developments of this sort. The maximum potential solid waste generation for the
ultimate development will likely be in the range of 1,000 to 1,500 tons per year. Source separation
will be encouraged by the St. Anthony Village for the restaurants and retail businesses to be
constructed on the site and these businesses will be expected to take advantage of recycling
programs to reduce costs for solid waste trucking and disposal. Three to five USTs may be
installed during site redevelopment. Appropriate measures to minimize environmental risks
associated with solid wastes,hazardous wastes,and storage tanks are proposed.
12. Traffic. The proposed project will have no significant impact on the regional roadway system
surrounding the project or on the signalized intersections near the project. The minor impacts to
the local, unsignalized intersections will not cause significant environmental risks.
13. Air Quality. No significant impacts are expected.
14. Adverse visual impacts. No significant visual nuisances are expected.
15. Compatibility with Plans. The proposed project is consistent with existing zoning and no
conflicts with adjacent land uses are anticipated.

Criteria B: Cumulative Potential Effects of Related or Anticipated Future Proiects
According to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 Subp. 7 (B)the second factor the City must consider is the
"cumulative potential effects of related or anticipated future projects." The City's findings are set forth
below.
As stated in the EAW, project proposers are not speculating about the ultimate development of the 4.96
acre lot to be located in the southwest corner of the site(currently occupied by the New Market
building). All of this area is incorporated into the proposed stormwater management plan. Due to the
small size of this lot, no additional or cumulative environmental impacts associated with its
development are anticipated.
Criteria C: Extent to Which the Environmental Effects are Subiect to Mitigation
According to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 Subp. 7(C)the third factor the City must consider is the
"extent to which the environmental effects are subject to mitigation by ongoing public regulatory
authority." The City's findings are set forth below.
The following permits and approvals are required for this project:
Unit of Government Type of Application
St. AnthonyVillage Budding Permit
St. AnthonyVillage Preliminary and Final Plat
St. AnthonyVillage Demolition Permit
St. AnthonyVillage Grading Permit
St. AnthonyVillage Municipal Water Connection Permit
St. AnthonyVillage Parking Lot License
St. AnthonyVillage Sanitary Sewer Connection Permit
St. AnthonyVillage Setback Variance for Cub Foods Store
MPCA NPDES/General Storm Water Permit
MPCA Utility Extension
MN Dept.-of Health Water Main Extension
Rice Creek Watershed District Grading and Stormwater Management
As noted under Criteria A above,the potential environmental effects associated with this project are not
significant and/or effectively mitigated in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations
(including, but not limited to the permits and approvals included in the table above). Accordingly,the
City finds that the potential environmental effects of the project are"subject to mitigation by ongoing
public regulatory authority"and an EIS need not be prepared.

Criteria D: Extent to Which Environmental Effects can be Anticipated and Controlled
According to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 Subp. 7 (D)the final factor the City must consider is the
"extent to which environmental effects can be anticipated and controlled as a result of other
environmental studies undertaken by public agencies or the project proposer, or of EIS's previously
prepared on similar projects." The City's findings are set forth below.
1. The proposed project is similar to other commercial redevelopment projects within fully-developed
urban areas. Other projects of similar scope with similar stormwater management plans and
BMPs generally reduce off-site environmental impacts relative to existing conditions.
2. The EAW currently contains or references all of the known studies that would likely provide
information or guidance regarding environmental effects which can be anticipated and controlled.
3. Because the proposed project only surpasses the mandatory EAW threshold by 46,600 square feet,
no EIS that addresses a similarly sized project was available.
4. The City finds that the environmental effects of the project can be anticipated and controlled as a
result of environmental review and permitting processes for similar projects.
