§ 13.36.220. Construction Impact Mitigation Plan - Contents.

A Construction Impact Mitigation Plan submitted pursuant to this chapter shall contain the following elements:

A.

A detailed project description, including site maps and a phasing schedule depicting the proposed location and timing of construction activity on a month-by-month basis for the duration of the project.

B.

A detailed analysis of the potential physical, environmental and other impacts of the construction activities on residents and businesses within a five hundred-foot radius of the project. The Construction Impact Mitigation Plan may incorporate by reference the analysis of any impacts identified in any document prepared for the project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act.

1.

Notwithstanding the above, if construction related impacts are significant, and substantially affect an area greater than within a five hundred-foot radius of the project boundaries, the applicant shall address the entire area substantially affected by the construction impacts of the project in the manner required by Sections 13.36.010 through 13.36.330. If the applicant fails to adequately address significant construction related impacts that substantially affect an area greater than a five hundred-foot distance from the project boundaries, the director may recommend, and/or council may adopt, specific findings that the construction impacts of the project will be significant and substantially affect an area more than five hundred feet from the project boundaries. Upon making such findings, the city council may either conditionally approve the Plan with appropriate related mitigation measures or, in the alternative, require the applicant to revise its Plan to include appropriate identification and mitigation of such impacts.

C.

A detailed description of the mitigation measures proposed to be undertaken by the contractor or the project owner to reasonably mitigate each of the impacts identified to the extent practicable. The Construction Impact Mitigation Plan may incorporate by reference the mitigations of any impacts proposed in any document prepared for the project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act.

D.

A detailed Communications Plan specifying the steps that will be taken by the contractor and the project owner during the course of construction of the project to alleviate the identified impacts, which shall include, but not be limited to the following:

1.

A schedule of regular meetings with the surrounding businesses and residents throughout the course of construction;

2.

A display of maps and construction schedule information posted in and around the construction area;

3.

A schedule of meetings with the surrounding businesses and residents, emphasizing the market area of the impacted businesses;

4.

A schedule of regular meetings to coordinate with any other construction project within five hundred feet of the project;

5.

The designation of a community outreach coordinator available on-site for the duration of the construction project.
