UPC 2-5

[See page 5-530 for the original comment] Because of the large building surface area proposed under each of the four development scenarios, a mitigation measure that would “maximize” the use of textured and other non-reflective materials would provide a greater opportunity for the provision of reflective materials, and would not likely be effective at addressing the cumulative effect of daytime glare impacts from overall development of the Baylands.

The revised Mitigation Measure 4.A-4b would provide for the use of some reflective materials, but would ensure daytime glare impacts would be less than significant.

Mitigation Measure 4.A-4b: All building exteriors within the Baylands Project Site shall be composed of textured and other non-reflective materials, including high-performance tinted non-mirrored glass. Any Rreflective materials on building exteriors that have a light reflectivity factor greater than 30 percent shall be positioned so as to not reflect daytime glare onto the 101 freeway or onto existing residential communities in Brisbane and Visitacion Valley limited to less than 50 percent of any wall area. Mirrored glass shall be prohibited.

UPC 2-6

[See page 5-530 for the original comment] The intent of the cited mitigation measure is to provide an incentive for employees to walk or ride a bicycle to work. By referring to the types of buildings rather than employees, the mitigation measure could be interpreted to include facilities for visitors, as well as employees, which is not the intent of the mitigation measure. The third bullet in Mitigation Measure 4.B-4 is revised to read as follows.

• Provide and maintain showers and changing facilities for employees in buildings having a gross leasable area of 25,000 square feet or more as a condition of final building permit;

UPC 2-7

[See page 5-530 for the original comment] The suggested wording provided in Comment UPC-7 appears to have a similar effect as the existing wording of Mitigation Measure 4.B-9. To maintain flexibility regarding future technologies and to clarify its intent, Mitigation Measure 4.B-9 is revised to read as follows.

Mitigation Measure 4.B-9: The following TDM measures shall be implemented:

• Promote use of clean fuel-efficient vehicles through preferential parking and/or installation of charging stations.
• As a potential element of a required TDM program, Ppromote zero-emission vehicles by providing such as through a neighborhood electric vehicle program or other programs or policies to reduce the need to have a car or second car vehicles as of a TDM program that would be required of all new developments.
