For this project, the following designations aze used: Potentially Significant Impact: An impact that could be significant and for which no mitigation has been identified. If any potentially significant impacts aze identified, an EIR must be prepared. Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated: An impact that requires mitigation to reduce the impact to aless-than-significant level. Less Than Significant: Any impact that would not be considered significant under CEQA relative to existing standards. No Impact: Any impact that does not apply to the project. 1. AESTHETICS Environmental Setting The project site is currently vacant land. Current views onto the site are partially screened by the existing homes in the Ironwood development, by the seven-foot tall masonry walls along the site's western and southern boundaries, and by the buildings and trees in the City's Operation Service Center to the south. Standards of Significance For purposes of this environmental document, an impact is considered significant if the proposed project would: • Substantially alter or degrade the existing visual character or quality of the project site; • Have a substantial effect on a scenic resource; or, • Substantially increase light or glare in the project site or vicinity that would adversely affect day or nighttime views. 7
