A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO
CERTIFYING THAT THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (STATE
CLEARINGHOUSE NUMBER 93081132) FOR THE LANDS OF THE DIOCESE OF
SAN JOSE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 1- GPA -93 IS COMPLETE AND IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT.
WHEREAS, The City Council has reviewed the Environmental Impact Report
(EIR) to consider the potential significant impacts that the Lands of the Diocese of San
Jose General Plan Amendment may have on the environment; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has held public hearings and considered the
comments from citizens, and from representatives from other public agencies and other
interested groups on the EIR; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the responses to comments made at
the public hearings and the review period; and
WHEREAS, the City Council exercised its independent judgment while
considering the information contained in the EIR prior to reaching a decision to approve
said General Plan Amendment; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that the Final EIR contains changes to
comments made by the City Council and the public, but which do not constitute any new
significant environmental impact or mitigation measure nor reflect any substantial
increase in the severity of an environmental impact; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that there may be differences between or
among the different sources of information and opinions offered in the documents,
testimony and comments that make up the Final EIR and the administrative record as a
whole. Experts and others can disagree, and this Council bases its decisions and these
findings on its independent judgment of that substantial evidence in the record which it
finds most compelling.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council certifies the Environmental Impact Report
to be adequate and complete and in compliance with the California Environmental
Quality Act and the CEQA Guidelines and directs the City Clerk to file a Notice of
Determination as required by law.
