Individual
Responses
to
Comments
from
Individuals
with
General
Plan
Policy
335,
stating
that
while
the
“DSP
and
DSP-V
(scenarios)
would
result
in
result
in
changes
in
views
from
Central
Brisbane
to
scenic
resources
including
San
Bruno
Mountain
and
the
Bay,
views
of
these
resources
would
maintained.”
Evaluation
of
the
extent
to
which
views
would
be
affected
by
proposed
development
is
set
forth
in
Section
4.A
,
Aesthetics
and
Visual
Resources
,
of
this
EIR.
Figure
5.1,
Open
Space
Framework,
of
the
applicant’s
proposed
Brisbane
Baylands
Specific
Plan
identifies
locations
of
proposed
windrows
within
the
Baylands
as
follows:
Along
a
northeast
–
southwest
axis
in
the
northwestern
portion
of
the
Baylands;
Along
a
north
–
south
axis
mid-way
between
the
Caltrain
tracks
and
Sierra
Point
Parkway,
east
of
Icehouse
Hill,
from
Visitation
Creek
to
Lagoon
Road;
and
Along
an
east-west
axis
near
Visitacion
Creek.
The
visual
analyses
undertaken
in
Section
4.A
of
the
Draft
EIR
illustrate
the
substantial
visual
changes
that
would
result
from
development
under
each
concept
plan
scenario.
Given
the
proposed
height
of
buildings
(up
to
120
to
160
feet)
and
windrows
(up
to
30-50
feet),
proposed
windrows
will
not
affect
views
of
the
Bay
beyond
the
effects
of
proposed
onsite
buildings,
except
from
locations
immediately
adjacent
to
the
windrows.
Each
of
the
four
concept
plan
scenarios
provide
a
proposed
land
use
map;
however,
detailed
site
plans
showing
building,
landscaping,
and
parking
lot
locations
for
site-specific
development
within
the
Baylands
are
not
available
for
any
scenario.
See
1
for
discussion
of
the
content
requirements
for
specific
plans
and
concept
plans.
The
City
will
consider
the
concerns
and
conclusions
raised
in
this
comment
and
determine
appropriate
requirements
for
building
heights
and
windrow
locations,
landscape
plant
selection,
and
site
design
guidelines
as
part
of
its
planning
review
and
decisionmaking
process.
Table
4.I-1
notes
that
each
of
the
concept
plan
scenarios
propose
retention
and
enhancement
of
onsite
biological
habitats,
which,
along
with
the
mitigation
measures
set
forth
in
Section
4.C,
Biological
Resources
,
will
achieve
consistency
with
Policy
357.
The
consultation
called
for
in
General
Plan
Policy
357
has
occurred
through
requests
for
input
on
the
content
of
this
EIR,
review
of
state
and
federal
biological
resources
databases
during
EIR
preparation,
and
soliciting
input
of
the
evaluations
and
conclusions
set
forth
in
this
EIR.
