The habitats required for <br />these special-status species typically include chaparral, serpentinite soils, <br />riparian woodland, marshes, and/or swamps. However, the rezoned housing <br />sites do not generally contain habitat that would support special-status <br />species. The Housing Element Update indicated the likelihood of <br />encountering special-status species on the rezoned housing sites is low given <br />the built-out nature of the project vicinity. Significant impacts on special- <br />status plant species associated with individual subsequent projects consistent
