As
stated
on
the
first
paragraph
of
page
4.N-22
of
the
Draft
EIR,
the
planned
Bay
Trail
segment
between
Lagoon
Road
and
Beatty
Avenue
is
currently
unfunded.
Completion
of
this
segment
of
the
Bay
Trail
will
be
an
obligation
of
the
developer,
required
as
a
condition
of
approval
for
new
development
within
the
Baylands.
The
pedestrian
path
noted
on
page
4.N-23
of
the
Draft
EIR
is
an
informal
pedestrian
path
located
south
of
Lagoon
Road
and
north
of
the
lagoon.
The
second
paragraph
on
page
4.N-23,
“Project
Site
Facilities,”
is
revised
to
read
as
follows:
Informal
Ppedestrian
paths
are
provided
exist
along
the
lagoon
at
the
southern
end
of
the
Project
Site.
The
rest
of
the
Project
Site
currently
lacks
dedicated
pedestrian
facilities.
Internal
roadways
provide
vehicle
and
truck
access
within
the
site,
and
to/from
the
US
101
freeway,
but
do
not
include
sidewalks.
As
noted
above,
the
northern
portion
of
the
Project
Site
represents
a
gap
in
the
San
Francisco
Bay
Trail.
The
first
paragraph
on
page
4.N-24
under
“Local
Programs’
is
revised
to
read
as
follows:
As
noted
above,
the
ALLIANCE
offers
a
variety
of
commuter
programs
including
coordinating
with
employers
to
provide
commuter
shuttles
from
BART
and
Caltrain
to
within
easy
walking
distance
of
many
San
Mateo
County
employers
(e.g.,
many
business
parks).
The
Brisbane-Crocker
Park
BART
Shuttle
bus
service
(see
Figure
4.N-7
),
managed
by
the
ALLIANCE,
provides
service
between
the
Balboa
Park
BART
Station
and
Brisbane
via
Geneva
Avenue
and
Bayshore
Boulevard,
including
a
stop
at
the
Muni
Metro
T-Third
Street
terminus.
The
shuttle
operates
adjacent
to
the
Project
Site
on
Bayshore
Boulevard
and
provides
afternoon-only
connections
to
the
Bayshore
Caltrain
Station
within
the
Project
Site.
The
discussion
of
Local
Programs
on
Draft
EIR
page
4.N-24
describes
the
existing
service
schedule
of
the
Brisbane-
Crocker
Park
BART
Shuttle
(provision
of
service
to
the
Bayshore
Caltrain
Station
only
in
the
afternoon
and
not
in
the
morning),
and
does
not
speculate
on
the
rationale
ALLIANCE
used
to
determine
its
service
schedule
or
stops.
This
comment
does
not
raise
any
significant
environmental
issues
regarding
the
adequacy
of
the
Draft
EIR
or
its
analysis
and
conclusions.
The
Draft
EIR
section
to
which
the
comment
refers
describes
existing
conditions
as
they
were
at
the
time
of
the
NOP
for
the
Baylands
EIR.
