None No No No No a) Growth Inducement Would the project: Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? The 1998 HVSP FEIR determined that development in the HVSP area would introduce a greater population growth. According to the 1998 HVSP FEIR, the 179 single-family homes proposed for the HVSP planning area would have a buildout of approximately 550 new residents. The 1998 HVSP FEIR determined that growth within the HVSP area has long been envisioned by both City and County general plans. The 1998 HVSP FEIR concluded that there would be no adverse direct growth-inducing impacts. Furthermore, the 1998 HVSP FEIR determined that the proposed project would contribute to the City’s planning efforts and therefore concluded that the proposed project would not result in adverse indirect growth-inducing impacts. As described in Section 2, Project Description, the proposed project would allow for 22 new residential units with 22 ADUs, which is consistent with the number of units contemplated in the HVSP in the Spotorno Flat Area. ADUs are allowed in the HVSP as a conditional use. Under State law, the calculation of housing density may not include ADUs. The amount of additional population produced by the required ADUs would depend on whether the property owners decide to rent them out, or keep them for their own purposes, such as a nanny flat or granny flat, where the occupant would be a single person. For purposes of analysis, the larger number of two persons per unit would be most conservative and would add 44 people to the estimated 66 residents of the primary single- family unit, for a total of 110 persons. This is within the amount of people estimated to be added to the area in the HVSP. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in greater population growth than anticipated in the 1998 HVSP FEIR. Furthermore, it is expected that construction workers would
