II. SUMMARY

A. PROJECT UNDER REVIEW

This EIR has been prepared to evaluate the potential environmental effects of the Truckee Railyard Master Plan project. The Railyard Master Plan Area (Master Plan Area) is located at the eastern end of historic Downtown Truckee. The Master Plan Area is an integral part of Downtown Truckee, and is comprised primarily of an area historically occupied by the railyard and lumber mill. The area is generally bounded by Glenshire Drive to the north, industrial uses and undeveloped land to the east, Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way and East River Street to the south, and Donner Pass Road and Bridge Street to the west. The Master Plan Area includes approximately 75 acres of land and is comprised of 20 parcels. The Draft Master Plan provides for development of an eclectic mix of building types and uses within an attractive, pedestrian-oriented neighborhood. The Draft Master Plan antici-pates that development will extend easterly from the Downtown Core. The pattern of devel-opment would include the highest development intensity occurring immediately adjacent to the Downtown Core and then decrease as development extends to the north and east. The Draft Master Plan includes provisions for affordable housing and recognizes the importance of allowing development within the Master Plan Area to “grow organically” to accommodate market demands and the community needs. To facilitate this type of growth, the Draft Master Plan establishes three major tools for regulating development within the Master Plan Area: the Regulating Plan/Zoning Map, Maximum Allowable Development (MAD) and Standards and Guidelines for new development. These three Master Plan components, as well as other Master Plan concepts, are described in detailed in Chapter III, Project Description.

B. SUMMARY OF IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

This summary provides an overview of the analysis contained in Chapter V, Setting, Impacts, Standard Conditions of Approval, and Mitigation Measures. CEQA requires a summary to include discussion of: (1) potential areas of controversy; (2) significant impacts; (3) cumula-tive impacts; (4) significant irreversible and unavoidable impacts; and (5) alternatives to the proposed project. Each of these topics are summarized below.

1. Potential Areas of Controversy

Letters and verbal comments received on the Notice of Preparation (NOP) (December 21, 2007) raised a number of topics that the commentors wanted addressed in the EIR, including impacts to transportation, parking, cultural resources, noise, utilities and visual

resources that may result from the proposed project. In addition, some of the comments offered in the NOP comment letters addressed the merits of the project itself and not the potential adverse environmental impacts that are the subject of this EIR. Verbal comments offered by those in attendance at the CEQA Scoping Sessions, held on January 16, 2008, included many of the comments offered in writing as comments on the NOP. Copies of the NOP and written comment letters are included in Appendix A.

2. Significant Impacts and Significant Unavoidable Impacts

Under CEQA, a significant impact on the environment is defined as “…a substantial, or potentially substantial, adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historic or aesthetic significance.”1 As discussed Chapter IV, Setting, Impacts and Mitigation Measures, and shown in Table II-1 below, the project would result in several significant impacts. The majority of the impacts could be mitigated to a less-than-significant level; although five of the identified impacts could be significant and unavoidable. Impacts that may not be mitigated to a less-than-significant level and would remain significant (identified as SU in Table II-1) are identified for the following topics:

Transportation, Circulation and Parking (level of service at the Donner Pass Road/Bridge Street intersection and Bridge Street/West River Street intersections, and the roadway segment of SR 267 between I-80 and Brockway Road).

Air Quality (long-term regional emissions).

Noise and Vibration (railroad noise).

Cultural and Paleontological Resources (removal of UPRR Warehouse). The potentially significant impacts that could be mitigated to a less-than-significant level are identified for the following topics:

Transportation, Circulation and Parking Air Quality Noise and Vibration Geology, Soils and Seismicity Hydrology and Storm Drainage Hazards and Public Safety Biological Resources Cultural and Paleontological Resources

114 California Code Regs. 15382; Public Resources Code 21068.

Hazards and Public Safety Visual Resources

Impacts are anticipated to be less than significant for all other environmental topics. Cumulative impacts are discussed in Chapter VI, CEQA Required Assessment Conclusions, except for cumulative impacts related to Transportation, Circulation and Parking, which are addressed in Chapter IV, Section C. The proposed project would significantly contribute to cumulative impacts for transportation.

3. Alternatives to the Proposed Project

Chapter V includes the analysis of three alternatives to the proposed project to meet the requirements of CEQA to analyze a range of reasonable alternatives to the project that would feasibly attain most of the project’s basic objectives and avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project. The three project CEQA alternatives analyzed in Chapter V include:

• The No Project/No Build Alternative, which assumes the continuation of existing conditions within the Plan Area.

• The Maintain Donner Pass Road Alignment Alternative, which assumes that Donner Pass Road would maintain its current alignment, and not extend directly into the Master Plan Area. This alternative would maintain the northerly “swoosh” alignment of Donner Pass Road and keep the through movement for vehicles and pedestrians on Donner Pass Road, with vehicles and pedestrians having to turn into the Plan Area onto Donner Pass Road Extension. This alternative reduces the development area of the Downtown Extension District and removes the conceptual park location at the western edge of the Plan Area. All other roadway improvements and development areas would remain the same as the proposed project.

• Reduced Building Alternative, which assumes a 25 percent reduction in the MAD. With a 25 percent reduction in the MAD, development under this alternative would include up to: 210 residential units; 124 live/work units; 93 work/live units; 52,500 square feet of retail space; 11,250 square feet of office space; one 750-seat movie theater; one 45-room hotel; one 15,000-square-foot grocery store; and 18,750 square feet of civic space.

C. SUMMARY TABLE

Information in Table II-1, Summary of Impacts and Mitigation Measures has been organized to correspond with environmental issues discussed in Chapter IV. The table is arranged in four columns: (1) impacts; (2) level of significance prior to mitigation (when mitigation is necessary); (3) recommended mitigation measures; and (4) level of significance after

implementation of mitigation. Levels of significance are categorized as follows: LTS = Less Than Significant; S = Significant; and SU = Significant and Unavoidable. A series of mitigation measures is noted where more than one mitigation measure is required to achieve a less-than-significant impact, and alternative mitigation measures are identified when available. For a complete description of potential impacts and recommended mitigation measures, please refer to the specific discussions in Chapter IV.
