City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project <br />Consistency Checklist 15183 Consistency Checklist <br /> <br /> <br />96 <br />a-b) Historical Resources and Archaeological Resources <br />Would the project: a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a <br />historical resource as pursuant to Section 15064.5? <br />b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an <br />archaeological resource pursuant to Section 15064.5? <br />Summary of Housing Element Update FEIR <br />Historic Resources <br />The Housing Element Update FEIR indicated that development consistent <br />with the Housing Element Update would result in additional development <br />throughout the City. Many of the rezoned housing sites contain existing <br />commercial or residential buildings, which could potentially be historic <br />resources. Therefore, subsequent development consistent with the Housing <br />Element Update could affect known historic resources or previously <br />unidentified or undesignated resources. <br />As the City receives development applications for subsequent development <br />consistent with the Housing Element Update, those applications would be <br />reviewed by the City for compliance with the policies and programs of the <br />General Plan and Municipal Code related to the protection of historical <br />resources. <br />Individual development projects that propose to alter a building or structure <br />greater than 45 years of age at the time an application is deemed complete <br />would be required to undergo project-specific environmental review in <br />compliance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 to determine whether the <br />building or structure may be a historic resource and take appropriate action <br />such as requiring additional site-specific or project-specific measures to <br />reduce any potential impacts. <br />Therefore, the Housing Element Update FEIR concluded that compliance with <br />applicable federal, State, and local laws would ensure that future <br />development consistent with the Housing Element Update would not have <br />the potential to eliminate important examples of major periods of California <br />history or prehistory or cause a substantial adverse change in the significance <br />of a designated historical resource, or otherwise result in significant adverse <br />effects to historical resources, and impacts would be less than significant.
