Tract 8724, 0 Vineyard Avenue Planning Commission Page 10 of 11 documents and/or construction management plans and submitted for verification to the City. Specific measures may include, but are not limited to, the following measures or design features: o The project applicant shall utilize quieter mechanical systems that would not result in an exceedance of the City’s operational noise standards. o The project applicant shall enclose mechanical systems in a sound-attenuating structure or shall install sound barriers adjacent to the proposed system that would reduce operational noise levels to not exceed the City’s noise performance standards as measured at the property line. o The project application shall relocate the proposed mechanical system further from property line to reduce operational noise levels to not exceed the City’s noise performance standards as measured at the property line. • MM NOI-2: Construction Vibration Reduction Plan For any future development projects that would use pile-driving within 200 feet of an offsite structure, prior to the issuance of grading permits for a project, the project sponsor shall retain a Noise Specialist to prepare a Construction Vibration Reduction Plan for submittal to the City’s Planning Director for review and approval that identifies specific techniques, such as the depth and location of temporary trenching, that would reduce potential vibration impacts to less than significant for any impacted structures. Upon approval by the City, the construction vibration reduction measures shall be incorporated into the construction documents. A note shall be provided on grading and building plans indicating t hat during grading and construction, the property owner/developer shall be responsible for requiring contractors to be monitored via onsite inspection by the Community Development Department to implement these measures to limit construction-related vibration impacts. For any future development projects that would necessitate the use of large vibratory rollers within 30 feet of an off-site structure, or the use of heavy construction equipment (i.e., construction equipment with a PPV at 25 feet [inches per second] rating of 0.051 or greater as shown in Table 3.11-3 in Section 3.11, Noise, in this Program EIR) within 15 feet of an off-site structure, the project sponsor shall retain a Noise Specialist to prepare a Construction Vibration Reduction Plan for submittal to the City’s Director of Community Development for review and approval that identifies specific techniques, such as the depth and location of temporary trenching, that would reduce potential vibration impacts to less than significant for any impacted structures. Upon approval by the City, the construction vibration reduction measures shall be incorporated into the construction documents. A note shall be provided on grading and building plans indicating that, during grading and construction, the property owner/developer shall be responsible for requiring contractors to be monitored via on-site inspection by the Community Development Department, to implement these measures to limit construction-related vibration impacts. This evaluation concludes the proposed project qualifies for an exemption from additional environmental review under Section 15183 because it is consistent with the development density and land use characteristics established by the City, as analyzed by the Housing Element Update FEIR. Further, the Housing Element Update FEIR adequately anticipated and described the impacts of the proposed project, identified applicable mitigation measures
