Best Management Practices shall be employed to reduce impacts to water quality.

62.

Prior to approval of building permits for any improvements in the vicinity of the Perfumo Creek eucalyptus grove and Madonna Road eucalyptus stand a qualified biologist shall survey the eucalyptus grove on the Dalidio Property. The purpose of the survey shall be to identify trees whose health status would pose a risk to the health and safety of residents, employees, or people present within the development or open space areas. Based on the results of this survey a tree-thinning program shall be created, which provides for the thinning or maintenance of the unhealthily trees that are not to be removed. No thinning activities shall occur that conflict with the previous or following mitigation measures in this document regarding time constraints on construction activities and/or sensitive species utilizing these trees.

63.

Building permit application plans shall include the following information:

(a)

The locations of all existing trees, noting location, species, diameter, and condition;

(b)

Note whether existing trees will be retained, removed, or relocated; and

(c)

The location of proposed utilities, driveways, street tree locations, and the size and species of proposed street trees.

(d)

A landscaping plan which shows the size and species of all trees proposed to be planted in the project.

64.

Landscape plans submitted for building permit approval shall include provisions for any relevant construction setbacks from trees; construction fencing around trees; grading limits around the base of trees as required; and a Replacement Plan for trees removed including replacement at a minimum 1:1 ratio.

65.

Proposed site disturbances shall be set back at least 35 feet from Perfumo Creek and 20 feet from the drainage channel on the Dalidio property as measured from the top of bank or from the edge of the predominant pattern of riparian vegetation, whichever is farther from the creek's flowline.

66.

The location of top of bank and of riparian vegetation shall be shown on all project plans.

67.

If wetlands and/or riparian habitat are subject to permitting or consultation with public agencies, such as USFWS, CDFG, or NMFS, required setbacks or conditions regarding wetlands and riparian habitat shall be observed.

68.

If wetlands and/or riparian habitat are removed for project development, the following shall apply:

The applicant shall submit a Mitigation Plan for areas of disturbance to wetlands and/or riparian habitat. The plan shall be designed by a biologist familiar with restoration and mitigation techniques. Restoration and mitigation shall be with locally occurring native species at a ratio of 1:1 for riparian habitat and 2:1 for delineated wetland habitat. The plan shall include, but not be limited to the following components:

(a)

Performance criteria (i.e.: what is an acceptable success level of revegetation to mitigate past impacts);

(b)

Monitoring effort (who is to check on the success of the revegetation plan, how frequently);

(c)

Contingency planning (if the effort fails to reach the performance criteria, what remediation steps need to be taken);

(d)

Irrigation method/schedule for wetland elements (how much water is needed where and for how long); and

(e)

Provisions for the removal of non-native invasive species (including details regarding the type and use of herbicides in and near aquatic habitat and sensitive species).

69.

Access for agricultural equipment shall be provided to any undeveloped agricultural lands. Curbing shall be designed or cut to provide wide "driveway - like" access to the cropland for all farm equipment.

70.

Irrigation water sources and infrastructure shall be provided to any undeveloped lands used for agriculture purposes.

71.

Reasonable buffers between urban and agricultural uses that do not interfere with the proposed development shall be incorporated into the design of the Dalidio Ranch, and other urban uses on the Dalidio property. Agricultural buffers can include non-habitable structures, roadways, parking, landscaped areas, and non-habitable buildings. The site plan depicted in Attachment D incorporates reasonable buffers as intended by this section.

72.

Foreground Views of Madonna Road. As thinning of the eucalyptus groves occurs, for every tree removed the applicant shall replace the tree on a 1:1. As feasible, the replacement trees shall be placed in an area where they will continue to screen the proposed development from existing views.

73.

Foreground Views from U.S. Highway 101. At the time of occupancy, planted landscaping shall assist to screen views of structures in a reasonable manner. All failed species shall be replaced within one month. Screening ratio and landscape vegetation health shall be achieved under the supervision of a qualified arborist.

74.

The applicant shall design buildings to conceal rooftop equipment. The plans shall depict precise cross-sections and sightline indicators to assure that the rooftop equipment will not be visible from surrounding locations.

75.

Areas within commercial development for outdoor storage, truck parking, trash collection, or loading shall not be visible from abutting streets. Such facilities shall be thematically incorporated into the overall site design, and non-enclosed areas shall be permanently defined and screened with walls and/or fences. Materials, colors and design of screening walls shall conform to those used as predominant materials and colors on the buildings.

76.

All lighting fixtures in customer parking and rear loading areas that are visible from surrounding residences shall be designed to fully contain glare on-site. All lighting poles shall be hooded, shielded, and located to direct light pools downward and prevent glare on the nearby residential lots. Non-glare lighting shall be used throughout the proposed project. Search lights and strobe lights shall be prohibited.

77.

All windows shall be of low-glare specification. Paint used for exterior facades shall be of low-reflectivity. Metal surfaces shall be blush-polished, and not highly reflective.

78.

Building and parking lots designs shall minimize automobile and parking lot lights from spilling over the existing exterior property lines. This may include, but is not limited to, the use of mature trees throughout the site. It should be noted that mature trees often grow more slowly than smaller more vigorous trees, and that the younger trees often overtake the larger trees within a matter of years. Therefore, it is recommended that a mix of mature and immature trees be planted as part of the buffering methods.

79.

Exterior wall surfaces that face public viewing corridors, such as U.S. Highway 101, Los Osos Valley Road, and Madonna Road, shall consist of materials and colors that will not produce any greater glare than that produced by comparable surrounding structures.

80.

The applicant shall use reclaimed wastewater generated from the wastewater treatment facility for on-site landscaping to the extent reclaimed wastewater is available and is feasible. During periods where demand exceeds reclaimed water supplies, on-site water wells shall provide supplemental irrigation water.

81.

A Utility Relocation Plan shall be prepared by the applicant. The Utility Relocation Plan shall identify all existing and proposed water lines, sewer lines, telephone, cable, gas, electric or other services located on the project site. The applicant shall coordinate with any affected agencies as part of the design process. The Utility Relocation Plan shall specify the phasing and scheduling of utility relocations to ensure minimal disruption between removal/relocation of existing utility lines and the installation of new lines.

82.

During construction underground utility alert services shall be used to identify the location of all underground services and to avoid the unplanned disruption of pipes or service lines.

83.

A construction period public outreach and communications plan and program shall be developed by the applicant for all phases of the project. Periodic assessments of upcoming utility and service disruptions shall be undertaken by the applicant or authorized agents thereof. These assessments and an identification of the affected service areas shall be coordinated with the public outreach program. The public outreach program shall ensure that advance notice for any utility or service disruption is extended to affected businesses and residents.

84.

Construction Solid Waste Minimization. During the construction phases of the project, the following mitigation measures will be implemented to reduce solid waste generation to the maximum extent feasible:

(a)

Prior to construction, the contractor will arrange for construction recycling service with a waste collection provider. Roll-off bins for the collection of recoverable construction materials will be located onsite. The applicant, or authorized agent thereof, shall arrange for pickup of recycled materials with a waste collection provider or shall transport recycled materials to the appropriate service center. Wood, concrete, drywall, metal, cardboard, asphalt, soil, and land clearing debris may all be recycled.

(b)

The contractor will designate a person to monitor recycling efforts and to collect receipts for roll-off bins and/or construction waste recycling. All subcontractors will be informed of the recycling plan, including which materials are to be source-separated and placed in proper bins.

(c)

The contractor will use recycled materials in construction wherever feasible.

The above construction waste recycling measures will be incorporated into the construction specifications for the contractor.

85.

The project applicant or authorized agent thereof shall provide tenants with educational material regarding appropriate waste management efforts upon occupancy and transfer of ownership. The design of the proposed buildings and facilities shall include provision of adequate space and capacity for recycling containers.

86.

The Dalidio Ranch house, barn and race track shall be subject to historic documentation by a qualified historian prior to their relocation. The structures shall be photographed and recorded consistent with professional historical standards. Associated farmhouse complex structures including the water tower, garage, large equipment storage building, small shed/bunkhouse and bungalow shall also be photo documented to provide a record of the Dalidio Ranch complex. A copy of the historic farmhouse documentation shall be provided to the San Luis Obispo Historical Society.

87.

A qualified historic architect with experience in relocation of historic structures shall be consulted during plans for relocation of the Dalidio Ranch house, barn, and race track to ensure that significant historic materials and fabric are retained and reconstructed appropriately.

88.

Areas adjacent to the U.S. Highway 101 frontage, including the proposed extension of Calle Joaquin and Fanner's Market, shall be surveyed by a qualified historic archaeologist. If any potentially significant remains are identified they shall be recorded consistent with state historical standards.

89.

At the commencement of project construction, all workers associated with earth disturbing procedures shall be given an orientation regarding the possibility of exposing unexpected cultural remains by an archaeologist and directed as to what steps are to be taken if such a find is encountered.

90.

In the event that archaeological and historic artifacts are encountered during project construction, all work in the vicinity of the find will be halted until such time as the find is evaluated by a qualified archaeologist and appropriate mitigation (e.g., curation, preservation in place, etc.), if necessary, is implemented. After the find has been appropriately mitigated, work in the area may resume.

In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of any human remains in any location other than a dedicated cemetery, the following steps will be taken:

(a)

There shall be no further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent human remains until:

(i)

The coroner of the county in which the remains are discovered must be contacted to determine that no investigation of the cause of death is required, and

(ii)

If the coroner determines the remains to be Native American:

(A)

The coroner has 24 hours to notify the Native American Heritage Commission.

(B)

The Native American Heritage Commission shall identify the person or persons it believes to be most likely descended from the deceased Native American.

(C)

The most likely descendent may make recommendations to the landowner or the person responsible for the excavation work, for means of treating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any associated grave goods as provided in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98.

(b)

The landowner or his authorized representatives shall relocate the Native American human remains and associated grave items with appropriate dignity on the property in a location not subject to further subsurface disturbance. Prior to relocation the landowner shall consult with a suitable representative. To do so; the Native American Heritage Commission shall be requested to identify a most likely descendant. If the Commission is unable to identify a most likely descendent or the most likely descendant fails to make a recommendation within 24 hours after being notified by the Commission then a Chumash representative shall be consulted. If the landowner or his authorized representative rejects the recommendation of the descendent representative, and the mediation by the Native American Heritage Commission fails to provide measures acceptable to the landowner, then the landowner may relocate the remains in its discretion.

If human remains are unearthed, State Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 requires that no further disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent human remains shall occur until the County Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. If the remains are determined to be of Native American descent, the coroner has 24 hours to notify the Native American Heritage Commission.

91.

Pedestrian Access to Commercial Center. All commercial buildings that abut a public street should have an entrance onto the street or provide a continuous sidewalk from the street to the main entrance of the building. The project shall provide explicit and clear pedestrian connection from its commercial retail component to the commercial retail development immediately north with safe and visually prominent street crossings.

92.

Avigation easements, which provide important disclosure information to prospective buyers and lessees, shall be required. Easements shall be in the generally applicable form approved by the County of San Luis Obispo, if any, (per Part 150, Airport Compatibility Planning, of the Federal Aviation Regulations) which stipulates that commercial and office property on the site would be exposed to aircraft noise, and provides legal protection to the airport, City and County against noise lawsuits. These easements hall also grant the airport the right to maintain the safety of airspace, including the right to clear ally obstructions into that airspace.

93.

In accordance with state law, the seller or lessor of property within the project site shall disclose to potential buyers or lessees that aircraft overflights occur, and that such flights may result in periodic increases in noise levels within the area.

94.

Buildings within the project area shall incorporate non-reflective roofing material and roof-mounted equipment in order to minimize glare impacts to passing aircraft.
