significant environmental effect as identified in the Final <br /> EIR. <br /> SupportincT Facts : <br /> The project site is within one-quarter of a mile of the <br /> Stockton City Limits . The people utilizing the golf course <br /> and equestrian center will primarily be residents of the <br /> City.

Land surrounding <br /> the City is prime agricultural soils , and any such facility <br /> will similarly be- located on prime agricultural land. The <br /> project site has unique characteristics due to its location <br /> in the Delta, with waterways and ambience providing an impor- <br /> tant setting. <br /> 2 . Imnact : <br /> The conversion of agricultural land. <br /> Mitigation : None . <br /> Finding• <br /> Specific economic , social , or other considerations make <br /> infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives <br /> identified in the Final EIR. <br /> Supporting Facts : <br /> The proposed project will retain the site in open space at <br /> the same time it provides additional recreation =acilities to <br /> the community.
