Initial Study:
An Initial study of this project was undertaken and prepared for the purpose of ascertaining
whether this project might have a significant effect on the environment. A copy of this study is on
file at the City of Gilroy Planning Depmtment, 7351 Rosanna Street, Gilroy, CA 95020.
;the Initial Study identified potentially significant effects on the environment. However, this
project has been mitigated (see Mitigation Measures below which avoid or mitigate the effects) to
a point where no significant effects will occur. There is no substantial evidence the project may
have a significant effect on the environment. The following reasons will support these findings:
1. The proposal is a logical component of the existing land use of this area.
2. Identified adverse impacts are proposed to be mitigated through preparation of special
studies, and construction of off-site improvements.
Preliminary Neg. Dec./GPA 95-03 Page 2 12/19/95
The proposed project is consistent with the adopted goals and poficies of the General Plan
of the City of Gilroy.
The Initial Study was independently reviewed by City staff, and this Negative Declaration
reflects the independent judgement of the City of Gilroy.
Mitigation Measures:
The project shall be designed in accordance with earthquake design regulations of the
Uniform Building Code, subject to the review and approval of the City Building Division:
A soils investigation shall be prepared for the project by a qualified soils engineer. The
recommendations of the soil investigation shall be incorporated into the final improvement
plans and shall be reviewed and incorporated into the final improvement plans and shall be
reviewed and approved by the City Engineering Division prior to approval of the final map.
The purposes of the soils investigation are to determine the exact soil characteristics and
limitations on the site, and to recommend appropriate engineering specifications for
development of the site.
The design and construction of all storm drainage improvements serving the project site
shall be provided by the developer, subject to review and approval by the City Engineering
Division. These design plans shall include, but not be limited to:
Applicable storm water source and treatment-based best management practices, applied
and maintained, as recommended in the California Storm Water Best Management
Practice Handbook.
b. Provisions for periodic sweeping for roadways, driveways, and parking areas on the
project site.
c. A design to reflect the City's Storm water Master Plan.
Pav~,d areas shall be designed to minimize drainage that is channeled to one location.
Pathway paving shall be kept to a minimum and shall be porous in nature wherever
feasible.
Drainage facilities shall be designed and installed to collect and transport the natural
flows in the hillside away from the streets and buildings and into approved drainage
structures.
Developers shall pay the appropriate storm drain development fees, subject to review by the
City Engineering Division, prior to building permit issuance.
Preliminary Neg. Dec./GPA 95-03 Page 3 12/19/95
Redesign the site plan to eliminate the northern driveway. Alternatively, the northern
driveway shall be restricted for inbound fight turns only. The redesigned site plan shall be
submitted to the city for review and approval by the City Engineering Division and the City
Fire Department, prior to approval of the site plan.
For exterior noise control, the developer shall construct 10 foot high acoustically-effective
patio fences at the sides of patios that have a dkect or side view of Monterey Road and that
are within 83 feet of the centerline of the roadway. Patios between 83 feet and 179 feet of
the centerline of the road, with a direct or side view of the road, require 8 foot high fences.
All other patios that have a dkect or side view of the roadway require six foot high
acoustically-effective fences. The fence heights are in reference to the nearest patio pad
elevation.
To achieve an acoustically-effective property line barrier or patio fence, k must be made
ak-tight, i.e., without cracks, gaps, or other openings and must provide for long-term
durability.
The barrier shall be identified on the final map and included in the final improvement plans.
They shall be subject to review and approval by the City Planning Division prior to approval
of the final map.
For interior noise control, all windows within 315 feet of the centerline of Monterey Road,
and with a direct or side view of the roadway, shall remain closed at all times. W'mdows
within 113 feet of the centerline of the road shall have windows'rate minimum Sound
Transmission Class (STC) 33. Windows between 113 feet and 179 feet of the centerline of
the road, require windows rated minimum STC 28. All other windows of the project,
including bathroom windows, may have any type of glass.
Alternatively, the STC 28 windows specified above to be maintained closed may be kept
open 50 percent of the time for natural ventilation, however, they must be fitted with
windows rated minimum STC 37.
When windows are maintained closed for noise control, some type of mechanical ventilation
to assure a habitable environment should be provided. The mechanical ventilation
requirements are specified by the Uniform Building Code.
The windows specified to be maintained closed are to be operable, as the requirement does
not imply a "fixed" condition. All other windows and all bathroom windows may have any
type of glazing and may be kept opened as desked unless the bathroom is an integral part of
a living space without a closable door, such as is sometimes found in a master bedroom
suite.
Prior to development of the site, the developer shall pay required City of CJikoy Public
Safety impact fees.

The developer shall provide statutory impact fees to the Gilroy Unified School District prior
to issuance of a building permit.
Prior to development of the site, the developer shall pay required City of Gilroy Parks and
Recreation impact fees.
All on-site wells shall be permanently capped in compliance with the standards set forth by
the Santa Clara Valley Water District and the City Engineering Division prior to the
issuance of a building permit.
The design of all sewer line improvements serving the project site shall be provided by the
developer, subject to the review and approval of the City Engineerkug Division.
The design of all storm drainage improvements serving the project site shall be provided by
the developer, subject to the review and approval of the City Engineering Division.
If archeological resources or human remains are discovered during construction, work shall
be halted within 50 meters (150 feet) of the find until k can be evaluated by a qualified
professional archaeologist. If the find is determined to be significant, appropriate mitigation
measures shall be formulated and implemented. This wording shall be incorporated into any
permits issued for construction of the proposed project.

Mitigation Monitoring Program
Introduction
On January 1, 1989, the California State Legislature passed into law Assembly Bill
3180. This bill requires public agencies to adopt reporting or monitoring programs
when they approve projects subject to an environmental impact report or a negative
declaration that includes mitigation measures to avoid significant adverse
environmental effects. The reporting or monitoring program is to be designed to
ensure compliance with conditions of project approval during project implementation
in order to avoid significant adverse environmental effects.
The law was passed in response to historic non-implementation of mitigation
measures presented in environmental documents and subsequently adopted as
conditions of project approval. In addition, monitoring ensures that mitigation
measures are implemented and thereby provides a mechanism to evaluate the
effectiveness of the mitigation measures.
A definitive set of project conditions would include enough detailed information and
enforcement procedures to ensure the measure's compliance. This monitoring
program is designed to provide a mechanism to ensure that mitigation measures and
subsequent conditions of project approval are implemented.
Monitoring Program
The basis for this monitoring program is the mitigation measures included in the
initial study. These mitigation measures are designed to eliminate or reduce signifi-
cant adverse environmental effects to levels of insignificance. These mitigation mea-
sures become conditions of project approval which the applicant is required to
complete before, dudng, and after implementation of the proposed project.
The attached checklist is proposed for monitoring the implementation of the
mitigation measures. This monitoring checklist contains all appropriate mitigation
measures in the initial study.
Center for Employment Training Initial Study
Monitoring Program Procedures
It is recommended that the City of Gilroy utilize the attached monitoring checklist for
the proposed project. The monitoring program should be implemented as follows:
The City of Gilmy Planning Division should be responsible for coordination of
the monitoring program, including the monitoring checklist. The Planning
Division should be responsible for completing the monitoring checklist and
distributing the checklist to the responsible individuals or agencies for their
use in monitoring the mitigation measures.
Each responsible individual or agency will then be responsible for determining
whether the mitigation measures contained in the monitoring checklist have
been complied with. Once all mitigation measures have been complied with,
the responsible individual or agency should submit a copy of the monitoring
checklist to the City of Gilroy Planning Division to be placed in the project file.
If the mitigation measure has not been complied with, the monitoring checklist
should not be returned to the Planning Division.
Prior to issuance of an occupancy permit, the Planning Division should review
the monitoring checklist to ensure that all mitigation measures and additional
conditions of project approval included in the monitoring checklist have been
complied with. An occupancy permit should not be issued until all mitigation
measures and additional conditions of project approval included in the
monitoring checklist have been complied with.
If a responsible individual or agency determines that a non-compliance has
occurred, a wdtten notice should be delivered by certified mail to the project
proponent within 10 days, with a copy to the Planning Division, describing the
non-compliance and requiting compliance within a specified pedod of time. If
a non-compliance still exists at the expiration of the specified pedod of time,
construction may be halted and fines may be imposed at the discretion of the
City of Gilroy.
