No additional analysis is required. <br />d) Listed or Eligible Tribal Cultural Resources <br />Would the project: Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a Tribal <br />Cultural Resource, defined in Public Resources Code Section 21074 <br />as either a site, feature, place, cultural landscape that is <br />geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the <br />landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California <br />Native American Tribe , and that is listed or eligible for listing in the <br />California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register of <br />historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code Section <br />5020.1(k)? <br />Prior FEIR Conclusions <br />The Prior FEIR detailed that records search results from the NWIC indicate that three historic <br />resources are located within 0.5 mile of the project site and the limit of disturbance areas, and a <br />review of the NAHC Sacred Lands File search was negative for recorded TCRs within the project site. <br />Consistent with requirements under CEQA, a letter containing project information requesting any <br />additional information and consultation regarding TCRs was sent to each Tribal representative on <br />February 27, 2023. No responses were received. As of the writing of the Prior FEIR, no TCRs listed <br />or eligible for listing were identified within the project site. Nevertheless, inadvertent discovery of <br />TCRs is always possible. Should TCRs be discovered during ground disturbance activities, <br />implementation of MM CUL-2a, MM CUL-2b, and MM CUL-3 would reduce potential impacts on <br />TCRs to a less than significant level. Therefore, the Prior FEIR concluded that impacts would be less <br />than significant with mitigation incorporated. (Draft EIR, pp. 3.4-28, 6-14). <br />Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion <br />Because the proposed project would be constructed in the same location as the County Project, the <br />results of the record searches and the pedestrian field survey conducted under the Prior FEIR would <br />still apply. However, the proposed project would reduce the overall scope and nature of off-site <br />improvements compared to the County Project, reducing the area where TCRs could be affected. <br />On February 18, 2026, the City sent out Tribal consultation letters pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 18, <br />which requires Tribal consultation for projects proposing a General Plan Amendment, to identify <br />additional significant TCRs meeting the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of the Public Resources <br />Code Section 5024.1.27 Tribes have 90 days to respond and request consultation, (i.e., until May 18, <br /> <br />27 Assembly Bill (AB) 52 consultation requirements under Public Resources Code §21080.3.1 apply to projects subject to <br />CEQA that may affect Tribal Cultural Resources (TCRs); however, Section 21080.3.1(a) applies only to negative <br />declarations, mitigated negative declarations and environmental impact reports and is not applicable to this addendum. <br />Therefore, AB 52 consultation is not required for this addendum. In contrast, SB 18 consultation requirements under <br />Government Code Section 65352.3 apply to adoption or amendment of a general plan. Because the proposed General <br />
