NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF GILROY CITY COUNCIL DOES
HEREBY: adopt the Mitigation Monitoring and Repotting Program for the Gilroy Spotts Park
Phase III Amendments and makes the following findings with respect to the significant effects
on the environment of the Gilroy Spmts Park Master Plan Phase III Amendments and
constrnction of a commercial recreational building at the Gilroy Spmts Park pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15091, and statements of overriding considerations pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15093:
1. The findings provide the written analysis and conclusions of the City Council in regard to
environmental impacts and mitigation measures related to the Gilroy Spotts Park Master Plan
Phase III Amendments and constrnction of a cmmnercial recreational building at the Gilroy
Spmts Park, and incorporate the draft and final environmental impact repott, appendices, and
prior cettified EIRs by reference. The findings represent the independent judgment of the City
Council of the City of Gilroy.
2. The City Clerk's office of the City of Gilroy, at 7351 Rosanna Street, Gilroy, California
95020 shall be the custodian of documents and record of proceedings on which the decision is
based;
3. The City makes the following findings, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section
15091(a)(l), regarding significant impacts that are mitigated to a less-than-significant level; i.e.
that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or
substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the final EIR.
The following findings relate specifically to the Gilroy Spotts Park Phase III Amendments
Supplemental Final Environmental Impact Repott:
a) Air Quality: Constrnction of the commercial recreation building would result in
reactive organic gas emissions that would exceed the standards of significance established by the
Bay Area Air Quality Management District and the City of Gilroy . The primary source of the
reactive organic gasses would be exhaust from constrnction equipment. Mitigation Measure A.Q-
I would reduce reactive organic gas emissions by establishing idling limitations on constrnction
equipment; requiring equipment be well-tuned and maintained, and requiring alternative fuel
equipment or emissions filters, or late model equipment with lower emissions levels. These
measures are feasible and recommended by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District as
appropriate for reducing reactive organic gas emissions from constrnction equipment, and would
reduce this impact to a less-then-significant level.
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46
4
b) Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Operations of the commercial recreation building would
result in greenhouse gas emissions that would be inconsistent with the emission reduction targets
of SB 32, based on achieving a 5.2 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the
projected 2020 emission inventory that are attributable to land use. The required reduction for
the commercial recreation building is detennined based on its service population as a share of the
state 's service population (population plus employment). Modeling performed for the
commercial recreation building indicates that the building would be directly or indirectly
responsible for an increase in annual greenhouse gas emissions of about 1,498 .38 metric tons, or
about 11.27 metric tons per service population each year. This emission level exceeds the
threshold of 4.27 metric tons per year, and the total required annual reduction would be
93 lmetric tons. Mitigation Measure GHG-1 would require one or more of four potential
mitigation approaches be implemented: 1) greenhouse gas emissions reductions measures to
suppmi achieving proposed LEED Silver certification; 2) incorporate non-LEED related
greenhouse gas reduction measures into the project design; 3) pmiicipate in greenhouse gas
reduction programs being implemented off-site by public or special agencies to obtain credit for
greenhouse gas emissions reductions; and/or 4) purchase carbon offsets that have been certified
through a qualified body to off-set greenhouse gas emissions generated by the project. These are
feasible measures , and would reduce greenhouse gas emissions to a less-than-significant level.
c) Biological Resources: Subsequent to the City 's ce11ification of the three prior EIRs that
are incorporated by reference , the Santa Clara Valley Habitat Plan was adopted by Santa Clara
County; the cities of San Jose, Morgan Hill, and Gilroy; the Santa Clara Valley Water District,
and the Santa Clara Valley Transpo1iation Authority in August 2012. The Santa Clara Valley
Habitat Plan provides United States Fish and Wildlife Service and California Depmiment of Fish
and Wildlife authorization for incidental take of several covered species under the Endangered
Species Act and the Natural Community Conservation Planning Act, and obviates the need for
several mitigation measures presented in the earlier environmental review and adopted by the
City. The City specifically finds that removal of mitigation measures specified below and the
substitution of the applicable mitigation measures from the Habitat Plan will provide equivalent
or greater mitigation. Accordingly, the following biological resources mitigation measures
previously adopted by the City were removed from the EIR in recognition that implementation of
similar provisions in the Santa Clara Valley Habitat Plan will equally mitigate impacts:
1) Spotts Park and USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measure 7 , specific to habitat
protection at a future trail crossing of Uvas Creek, was removed in favor of Santa Clara Valley
Habitat Plan stream crossing and buffer provisions .
2) Spo1is Park and USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measure 10, specific to erosion
controls at a future trail crossing of Uvas Creek, was removed in favor of Santa• Clara Valley
Habitat Plan stream crossing and buffer provisions .
3) Spo1is Park and USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measure 11 and USA Amendment
Subsequent EIR Mitigation Measure 5, providing protections for bmrnwing owl , were removed
in favor of Santa Clara Valley Habitat Plan special status species provisions .
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46
5
4) Spo11s Park and USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measures 14 and 15, and USA
Amendment Subsequent EIR Mitigation Measures 6 and 7, providing protection to several
special status amphibian species were removed in favor of Santa Clara Valley Habitat Plan
special status species provisions.
Two prior biological resources mitigation measures adopted by the City, Sp011s Park and
USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measure 4, providing a stream buffer and native plantings, and
USA Amendment Subsequent EIR Mitigation Measure 3, requiring adherence to the City's
fmmer Consolidated Landscape Policy, were combined and consolidated to reflect provisions of
the Santa Clara Valley Habitat Plan, and increasing the stream buffer from 50 feet to 150 feet.
d) Hydrology and Flooding : The project site and the smrnunding area are pai1ially within
a 100-year flood zone as established by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and
pa11ially within a flood flowage easement held by the Santa Clara Valley Water District. The
Gilroy Spmis Park Master Plan Phase III Amendments and constrnction of the commercial
recreation building would place a building on a pe1manent foundation within flood areas,
replacing a previously planned tent strncture that would have allowed flood waters to flow
through with little impedance. A flood study was prepared to analyze the effects of the strncture
on flood levels, flow patterns, and velocity, and the study concluded that the commercial
recreation building would dive11 flood flows in such a manner that elevations would rise to a
limited extent to the west and no11h of the building and would be reduced directly to the east of
the building, but the changes would be considered less than significant under criteria established
in the Code of Federal Regulations and by Santa Clara County.
The Gilroy Sp011s Park Master Plan Phase III Amendments and constrnction of the
commercial recreation building would increase the amount of impervious surface area compared
with the adopted Gilroy Spo11s Park Master Plan, and as a result, increase the potential for
pollutants to be canied in stonn water. Two previously adopted mitigation measures, Sp011s Park
and USA Amendment EIR Mitigation Measures 2 and 3, will address surface water quality and
reduce impacts to a less-than-significant level.
e) Transp011ation: The Gilroy Sp011s Park Master Plan Phase III Amendments and
constrnction of the commercial recreation building would increase traffic volumes compared
with the adopted Gilroy Sp011s Park Master Plan. A traffic impact analysis was prepared to
determine the volumes of traffic and extent of improvements necessary to maintain the City 's
service standards for intersections near the Gilroy Sp011s Park. The study detennined that effects
on traffic congestion would be similar to those already identified in the prior ce11ified EIRs, but
that some improvements may need to be implemented sooner. Sp011s Park and USA Amendment
EIR Mitigation Measure 20 and USA Amendment Subsequent EIR Mitigation Measure 22 both
require improvements to the Monterey Street I Monterey Frontage Road intersection. Each
mitigation measure's specific improvements at this intersection are similar but the improvements
at Monterey Road/Monterey Frontage Road will be required to be completed p1ior to buildout of
Phase III.
The Gilroy Spo11s Park Master Plan Phase III Amendments and constrnction of the
cmmnercial recreation building would also result in a reduced level of service at the Church
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46
6
Street / West Luchessa Avenue intersection. USA Amendment Subsequent EIR Mitigation
Measure 21, previously adopted by the City, would reduce this impact to a less-than-significant
level.
4. The City finds that in p1ior actions, findings were made pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15091(a)(l) regarding other significant impacts that were mitigated to a less-than-
significant level, relating to aesthetics; construction dust; archeological and historic resources;
biological resources (raptors, protected trees, nighttime lighting, and accidental habitat
disturbance during construction); noise; and transpo1tation (Monterey Street / West Luchessa
Avenue, Monterey Street/Tenth Street, commercial site access, bicycle and pedestrian access and
safety, and parking supply); and for which the Gilroy Spmis Park Master Plan Phase III
Amendments and construction of a commercial recreation building were not found to have new
or more severe environmental effects.
The following are the specific impact findings for the prior EIRs germane to the proposed
project. Some environmental topics or mitigation measures are not addressed below because they
do not pe1tain to the subject project under this Phase III amendment.
(f) Air Quality -Construction Emissions: Sensitive receptors could be exposed to
construction emissions , including diesel , during construction. The City of Gilroy City Council
hereby finds that the mitigation measures are feasible and will, when implemented, effectively
mitigate the potentially significant health impacts associated with construction equipment
emissions, when implemented . The mitigation measures are fully enforceable by the City of
Gilroy, and the City Planning Division will require compliance with the measure prior to
issuance of grading or building pennits. During construction, all diesel-powered engines shall be
required to have pa11icle trapping filters to reduce the amount of polluting emissions.
Construction delivery trucks shall not idle for longer than two minutes . Dust control measures
shall be incorporated into all pe1mits, subject to the review of the City of Gilroy Engineering
Division.
(g) Air Quality -Construction Dust: Sensitive receptors could be exposed to dust (PMl 0)
from grading operations and other soil disturbance during construction. The City of Gilroy City
Council hereby finds that the mitigation measure is feasible and will, when implemented,
effectively mitigate the potentially significant health impacts associated with construction dust,
when implemented. The mitigation measures are fully enforceable by the City of Gilroy, and the
City Engineering Division will require compliance with the measure prior to issuance of grading
or building pennits. Dust control measures shall be incorporated into all permits for the proposed
project, subject to the review and approval of the City of Gilroy Engineering Division.
(h) Archaeological and Historical Resources -Discovery of Unknown Archaeological
Resources and Human Remains: It is possible that that construction of the proposed project could
disturb unknown archaeological resources. This would be a potentially significant impact. A
mitigation measure is required that ensures that in the event of the discovery of buried cultural
resources or human remain, project work would be temporarily stopped until a qualified
professional archaeologist can inspect the find. If the find is determined to be significant,
appropriate mitigation measures shall be fonnulated and in1plemented. If human remains are
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46
7
found the Gilroy Police Depai1ment will contact the coroner of Santa Clara County to dete1mine
that no investigation of the cause of death is required. If the coroner determines the remains to be
Native American the coroner shall contact the Native American Heritage Commission, and the
most likely descendent shall be consulted. The City of Gilroy City Council hereby finds that the
mitigation measure is feasible and, when implemented, will effectively mitigate for the potential
disturbance of unknown archaeological resources . The mitigation measure will be included on
constrnction drawings and is fully enforceable by the City of Gilroy, and the City Planning
Division will require compliance with the measure prior to approval of grading or building
pe1mits .
(i) Biological Resources -Invasive Species: A number of invasive species listed on the
California Exotic Plant Council's Exotic Pest Plants of Greatest Ecological Concern in California
are present within the prope1iy boundaries. Grading and disturbance associated with the
proposed project would remove any native plants and create the disturbed environment prefen-ed
by invasive species. The City of Gilroy City Council hereby finds that mitigation measure is
. feasible and, when implemented, will effectively mitigate the potential for the project to remove
native plants and create an environment prefen-ed by invasive species . The mitigation measure is
fully enforceable by the City of Gilroy, and the City Planning Division will require compliance
with the measure prior to issuance of grading or building pern1its . The project proponent shall
prepare a landscaping and re-vegetation plan with requirements in order to prevent the spread of
invasive non-native species.
(j) Biological Resources -Raptors: Cottonwood and sycamore trees present near the project
site have the potential to provide suitable nesting habitat for raptors . If there were active nest(s)
of protected bird species present, constrnction and site preparation activities , if conducted during
the nesting season, could result in the direct loss of nests, including eggs and young, or the
abandonment of an active nest by the adults. The City of Gilroy City Council hereby finds that
the mitigation measure is feasible and, when implemented, will effectively mitigate the potential
impacts to nesting raptors. The mitigation measure is fully enforceable by the City of Gilroy, and
the City Planning Division will require compliance with the measure prior to issuance of grading
or building permits. Pre-constrnction surveys for nesting raptors shall be conducted by a
qualified biologist if construction is to occur during the nesting season (April 15 -August 1) to
reduce impacts to a less than significant level. If raptor nests are located during pre-constrnction
surveys, a qualified biologist shall establish a 300-foot buffer around each nest for the duration
of the breeding season to prevent nest harassment and brood mo1iality. Work may proceed prior
to August 1 only if a qualified biologist conducts nest checks and establishes that the young are
fully fledged.
(k) Biological Resources -Protected Trees: Some of the trees along the north side of Thomas
Road -Luchessa A venue, along the nm1h side of Mesa Road, and through riparian habitat
leading to and from the proposed pedestrian bridge may be considered "significant" trees that
might be removed or injured during construction activities. The City of Gilroy City Council find
that implementation of mitigation measures would reduce this impact to a less than significant
level. Mitigation includes a field survey conducted by a ce11ified arborist and a written repo11 of
the findings of the survey.
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46

(1) Biological Resources -Habitat Disturbance : Accidental spills of contaminants or other
hannful materials, such as diesel fuel or oil, from construction vehicles could spread into the
sensitive riparian woodland habitat and Uvas Creek and hann or kill wildlife. During use of the
spo11s park, contamination of Uvas Creek could potentially occur from pesticides, fe11ilizers, and
similar substances . The City of Gilroy City Council find that implementation of mitigation
measures will reduce this impact to a less than significant level. Mitigation involves requiring a
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Station pe1mit and a Santa Clara Valley Water District
pennit in addition to a plan and guidelines established for the response to and prevention of
accidental spill and contamination of the Uvas Creek.
(m) Biological Resources -Nighttime Lighting: Nighttime lighting of the spo11s park play
fields could spill over into the riparian woodland habitat and disturb wildlife, restrict the
movement or activity of wildlife, or facilitate increased predation of wildlife. The City of Gilroy
City Council find that mitigation, involving preparation of a lighting plan, will reduce this impact
to a less-than-significant level.
(n) Transp011ation -Monterey Street I West Luchessa A venue: The intersection of Monterey
Street and Luchessa Avenue is projected to degrade from LOS C to LOS F during the PM peak
hour with the addition of Sp011s Park and Barberi residential project-generated traffic. The City
of Gilroy City Council find that implementation of the mitigation measure will reduce this
potentially significant impact to a less-than-significant level. Street improvements at Monterey
Street/West Luchessa Avenue must be required as a condition of approval and implemented at
such time as to prevent the deterioration of traffic operations below acceptable levels. The
Barberi residential project completed most of the improvements and the remaining
improvements are not required for Phase III development.
(o) Transpo11ation -Monterey Street/Tenth Street: This intersection would operate at an
overall acceptable level of service during project conditions. However, the pe1mitted phasing for
the eastbound and westbound left-tum movements causes excessive delays for left-turning
vehicles. The Sp011s Park Barberi residential project would add traffic volume to the westbound
left-tum movement during both peak hours , which could exacerbate this condition and result in a
potentially significant impact. The City of Gilroy City Council hereby finds that the mitigation
measure is feasible and, when implemented, will effectively mitigate the unacceptable left turn
delays at the Monterey Street/Tenth Street intersection. The mitigation measure is fully
enforceable by the City of Gilroy, and the City Engineering Division will require compliance
with the measure prior to approval of project entitlements . The developer of the first project on
the project site shall install a full eight-phase signal operation at the Monterey Street/Tenth Street
intersection to provide protected left turns on the eastbound and westbound approaches and
increase the capacity of the left-tum movement. The signal shall be installed prior to issuance of
the first residential or commercial occupancy permit, subject to review and approval by the City
Engineering Division. The Barberi residential project completed most of the improvements and
the remaining improvements are not required for Phase III development.
(p) Transportation -Bicycle and pedestrian access and safety: Continuous sidewalks are not
provided on the west side of Monterey Road, restricting pedestrian access in and around the
Sp011s Park. The City of Gilroy City Council hereby finds that the mitigation measure is feasible
RESOLUTION NO. 2020-46
9
and, when implemented, will effectively mitigate the potentially significant safety impacts for
pedestrians and bicyclists on Monterey Road. The mitigation measure is fully enforceable by the
City of Gilroy, and the City Engineering Division will require complianc e with the measure prior
to approval of grading or building permits for adjacent conunercial uses or the final phase of the
Sp01is Park. The Barberi developer has constructed sidewalk improvements along Luchessa
A venue. Additionally, the Uvas Creek bicycle and pedestrian trail has been constructed as pati of
the first two phases of the Spo1is Park. Monterey Road frontage improvements will benefit Phase
III development, but are not required until the final phase of the Spo1is Park development.
(q) Transpo1iation -Parking supply: The proposed spo1is park would have a sho1iage of
parking spaces at the completion of Phase V , resulting in a significant impact related to parking
supply. The City of Gilroy City Council finds that with implementation of mitigation, this impact
would be reduced to a less-than-significant level. The Master Plan amendment reduces the
parking deficit by 183 spaces tlu·ough completion of Phase III development.
5. The City, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15091(a)(3), incorporates by reference
and hereby remakes prior findings that specific economic, legal , social , technological , and other
benefits of the proposed use outweigh significant environmental effects that may not be
mitigated to a less-than-significant level , relating to the conversion of prime fannland within the
proposed urban service area amendment, including the land within the Gilroy Spo1is Park; for
noise from spo1is activities and project traffic; for which the Gilroy Spo1is Park Master Plan
Phase III Amendments and construction of a conunercial recreation building were not found to
have specific new or more severe envirorunental effects. A prior finding of significant and
unavoidable effects due to inconsistency with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District 's
Clean Air Plan is no longer applicable, since adoption of new Clean Air Plans in 2010 and 2017 ,
and a change in the Bay Area Air Quality Management District's methodology for determining
consistency with the Clean Air Plan. The City has adopted a fa1mland mitigation program, and in
March 2020 the City secured an easement on fmmland that will be used to mitigate fa1mland
conversion impacts within the City.
