Ms. Kerry Sullivan April 8, 1992 Page 8 Page 4.1 - 4 C170 I believethe source for the General Plan Map is the Draft 2010 General Plan, not the Draft 1991 General r Plan. Paae 4.1 - 8 Environmental Impact and Mitioation Measures C171 Noise, odor, chemical drift, trespassing, and vandalism on adjacent lands would be lessened with the t implementationof the plan as the projects neighbors have attested via both verbal and written testimony. Page 4.1 - 11 Mitigation 4.1-1 The golf course and residential lot scheme should be redesigned to unify and protect the 7172 riparian woodland area and to provide a buffer between the project's residents and the forest to reduce impacts on this resource. (See discussion of biological impacts in Section 4.7, Biological Resources.) Fescue grasses are proposed for the golf course. There are no native grasses on the property presently. Page 4.1 - 13 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 3173 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 s 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 could be detrimental to the unique on-site resources. The proposed conservation easement does not provide adequate long-term protection for on-site resources. (See Biotics and Cultural Resources.) This is a less- than-significant land use impact. Mitigation 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. Where is the scientific evidence that explains the need to restrict the access of people into the natural area? III-123
