4.1 LAND USE AND PLANNING POLICY Beeause the 2010 Plan has net been adepted, its mgulatiens de not have the feree ef law. It is alse the applicant's intent to preserve the natural area which can be used for educational and research purposes. Therefore, this impact would->je is considered a less-than-significant impact. Mitigation 4.1-4 No mitigation measure is required or recommended. Impact 4.1-5 The proposed conservation easement would not adequately protect the unique on-site resources. The project applicant is proposing to maintain the riparian woodland as a natural area. A deed of conservation easement would be prepared and the natural area would be maintained by a third party conservation agency. The details of how this easement would be implemented and maintained have not been adequately provided for in the applicant's draft Deed of Conservation Easement. A conservation easement would preclude development in the natural area, but it would not restrict the activities of future site residents who would probably use the natural area as their own private wooded preserve. The draft Deed of Conservation Easement included in the project application does not provide the conservation agency the ability to restrict the on-site movement of residents or limit access to the natural area. This w could be detrimental to the unique on-site resources. The proposed conservation easement does ncu provide adequate long-term protection for on-site resources. (See Biotics and Cultural Resources.) This is a less-than-significant land use impact. Mitigation 4.1-5 The conservation agreement between the applicant and conservation agency should include language that would restrict access into the natural area, including access by future residents. This arrangement would allow the agency or organization a greater ability to protect the unique on-site resources than is possible with the draft conservation agreement. Impact 4.1-6 The proposed project may create a hazard to aviation in the area. The Airport Land Use Commission has divided each airport's area of influence into seven subareas where different standards relating to categories of land use apply. The site is located within the most 4.1-16
