Medium Density Residential/Community Commercial Mixed Use (DMX) [pojoh!Eftjhobujpot;! Downtown Mixed Use (DMX) Eftdsjqujpo!pg!Qspkfdu; Qiztjdbm!Mpdbujpo;! The proposed St Vincent de Paul Facility is located at 938 Linden Avenue. The site is surrounded by medium density residential development to the south, along Armour Avenue, and commercial and industrial uses to the north, west and east (See Attachment A-Vicinity Map). Qspkfdu!Qspqptbm; The applicant proposes to relocate a food services program from its current location at the St Vincent De Paul retail store located at 344 Grand Avenue, to the Project Site, at 938 Linden Avenue. The proposed relocation provides an opportunity for the applicant to provide food, counseling, community gathering and job search assistance in one location. In addition, hotel/shelter vouchers and transit vouchers can be distributed on- site, and the facility will have clean clothes, showers and laundry facilities for those in need. €Caf² St Vincent will be staffed primarily by volunteers from within the community, including students, senior citizens and members of church groups. The proposed hours of operation are Monday through Friday, with limited service available on Saturday. Staff and volunteers will typically arrive prior to the first meal service in order to prepare the food. The security gate and facility doors will normally open at 7:30 a.m. and will be closed mid- to late-afternoon, depending on staffing available on-site. Saturday hours are proposed to be generally mid-morning to early afternoon. Based on St Vincent's experience with other facilities, including the existing facility that will be relocated, it is anticipated that no more than 30-40 guests will be on site at a given time and roughly 100 persons per day will be served.

Discussion: a) The Project Site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone and no active or potentially active faults traverse the Project Site. Thus, potential impacts related to surface fault rupture would be less than significant. The site is located with an area designated by ABAG as €flatland. There is no threat of landslides on the project site; therefore the Project would have no impact with respect to landslides. The site is located near the San Andreas Fault and within an area which could experience strong earthquake shaking or seismic related ground failure; however, renovation of the existing buildings and improvements on the site will be required to comply with the California Building Code, to ensure that the people and structures on the site will not be exposed to substantial adverse effects, including risk of loss, injury or death. Accordingly this impact would be less than significant. b-e) The Project proposes reuse of an existing structure that has been supported by underlying soil and geologic composition without significant issue. Renovation and reuse of the structure would not affect the soils ability to continue to support the existing structure, as the renovation and reuse will involve minimal physical changes to the site and building. The Project, therefore, will not result in greater instability of the soil. There is no evidence of the soil demonstrating €expansive qualities, as defined in the California BuildingThe site is currently served by sewer; there is no . need for septic tanks or similar alternatives.

Jodpsqpsbujpo Xpvme!uif!qspkfdu; a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, x either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of x reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases a-b) Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are referred to as greenhouse gases (GHGs) because they capture heat radiated from the sun as it is reflected back into the atmosphere, much like a greenhouse does. The accumulation of GHGs has been implicated as a driving force for global climate change. Definitions of climate change between and across regulatory authorities and the scientific community, but in general can be described as the changing of the earths climate caused by natural fluctuations and anthropogenic activities, which alter the composition of the global atmosphere. California State law defines GHGs as Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrous Oxide, Hydrofluorocarbons, Perfluorocarbons, and Sulfur Hexafluoride. The primary contributions to GHG emissions in California are transportation, electric power production from both State and out of state sources, industry, agriculture and forestry, and other sources, which include commercial and residential activities. At present, the City of South San Francisco does not have an adopted plan or specific policies to reduce GHG emissions, although the City is early in the process of creating a Climate Action Plan and many of the Citys policies and ordinancesƒsuch as one of the regions most aggressive Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programsƒ achieve the same objective. South San Franciscos current TDM Ordinance, which requires that non- residential development generating more than 100 daily trips must incorporate measures to ensure that at least 28% of all trips are made through alternative mode use. As incentives to implement programs that will further reduce vehicle trips, the TDM provisions provide a floor area ratio (FAR) bonus in accordance with the General Plan when 30% to 45% of all trips involve alternative mode use, depending on the type of development and requested FAR. The City is completing an emissions survey that will provide a basis for formally developing such tools. Although the General Plan did not specify policies and programs designed to reduce GHG emissions, many of the Plans policies will contribute to this objective by promoting development that is less reliant on motor vehicles. The proposed project will not generate more than 100 trips per day; the majority of trips will be completed using public transportation, bicycles and walking.

Ejtdvttjpo;!! a- c) The proposed project is to operate a charitable food and social services facility within an existing building located on a fully developed site. No hazardous materials are proposed to be transported or used as part of the operation of this facility. Therefore, no release or emissions of hazardous materials will occur. During construction, hazardous materials could be transported to the project site. Construction activities typically involve the use of substances such as paints, fuels, and solvents. Construction activities are subject to federal, state and local laws and requirements that are designed to minimize and help avoid potential health and safety risks associated with hazardous materials. There are no schools located within one-quarter mile of the proposed project; therefore there would be no impact. d) The project site is not included on lists of hazardous materials sites pursuant to any government code; there would be no impact. Furthermore a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) (See Attachment D) was conducted for the property and found that there are no underground tanks, nor any evidence that the site has historically been used for storage, use or disposal of hazardous materials. The Phase 1 ESA did conclude that with the exception of a recommended indoor ‚air assessment (which has been completed for the project and is also included in Attachment D), there were no recognized environmental conditions on the property. There was no recommendation of remediation of any ground or soil contamination at the site. Furthermore the applicant is not proposing any substantial below grade construction and the site is fully developed with a building and paved surface parking lot. e-f) The site is located in close proximity of San Francisco International Airport but there are no private airstrips in the vicinity. The Project proposes reuse of an existing structure that has historically been used for office/warehouse use. The limited use proposed by the Project will not result in a safety hazard for people working at the site or residing in the area. g) The project would not result in any changes to existing streets or emergency roads, and therefore would not interfere with any response or emergency evacuation plan that may be in affect for the area. h) The project is not located near wildlands.

Ejtdvttjpo;!! a-b) The site is fully developed hence no new development or drainage is proposed. The applicant will be required to comply with all applicable water quality standards including the City's Storm Water Quality Management and Discharge Control Ordinance, and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. The project would result in minimal, if any, changes to existing topography, and will include new landscaped (permeable) area, therefore the project will not negatively affect groundwater supplies, interfere substantially with groundwater recharge, or lower the local groundwater table level. c-f) The proposed Project does not include changes to the topography, includes little to no grading therefore it will not alter existing drainage patterns in a manner that would cause erosion, siltation, or flooding conditions on or off the site. The project will not contribute runoff that would exceed the capacity of existing drainage systems, or otherwise substantially degrade water quality. g-h) The project is located in Zone B an area of moderate flood hazard, usually the 1 area between the limits of the 100-year and 500-year floods. B Zones are also used to designate base floodplains of lesser hazards, such as areas protected by levees from 100-year flood, or shallow flooding areas with average depths of less than one foot or drainage areas less than 1 square mile. The Project does not propose placement of any housing or new structures at the site. i-j) The project site is not near a levee or dam, nor any large body of water that could cause seiche, tsunami, or mudflow. 1 FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map, City of SSF, Community Panel Number 065062 0002 B, effective September 2, 1981 Y/!MBOE!VTF!BOE!QMBOOJOH!

Discussion: a) Will the project physically divide an established community? No. The project is proposed on a fully developed commercial site. The project site is bordered by residential and commercial/industrial development, and is consistent with applicable General Plan and zoning standards. b) Will the project conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? No. The proposed project is consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan. The General Plan has a mixed designation for the site, including Community Commercial and Downtown Medium Density, which allows for social services. The proposed project is also complies with the Citys zoning regulations for the Downtown Mixed Use (DMX) Zoning District, provided the Parking Reduction application is approved by the City. (Attachment E- General Plan) (Attachment F -Zoning Designation) c) Will the project conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? No. There are no local or regional habitat conservation or natural community conservation plans that are applicable to the project site. XI.

The applicant will be occupying the building and will remodel the facility to accommodate the new use. The Police Department does not anticipate an increase in service demand, because the use largely exists in the Downtown area today. However, the Police Department has agreed to expand their presence in and around the proposed use. The expanded Police presence is not specific to SVdP, but they will certainly benefit from the additional Police presence. Aside from the Police Department, there will be no need for additional services. Services for the area have already been allocated; there will be no need for additional services. There will be no additional needs for schools since no new residences are created as part of this proposal. XV.

(See Attachment H.) b) The projected vehicle volumes would not exceed projected levels of service either individually or cumulatively. The data collected by John Wilson, Sandis Engineers (Attachment H), shows low traffic volumes and no conflict with any congestion management practices and policies. c) The proposed new land use does not affect traffic patterns. d) The proposed project does not include any changes to the existing and approved street design, and there will be no conflict with compatible uses in the area. e) The current traffic circulation was approved by the City when the original building was approved. The reuse of the building does not include any changes to circulation or emergency access. f) There is no conflict with existing polices and plans. In fact, there is a substantial reduction in trips to the site than a typical commercial business since the majority of the patrons arrive via public transportation, bicycle and walking. XVII.

Mr. Norma Fragoso 315 Maple Avenue South San Francisco, CA 94080 Subject: Results of Transmittal of Indoor Air Quality Assessment For 938 Linden Avenue South San Francisco, California CSS Project No: 6601 Dear Ms. Fragoso: CSS Environmental Services, Inc. (CSS) is pleased to submit the following results of an Indoor Air Quality Assessment (Assessment) performed for the property at 938 Linden Avenue (the Site) in South San Francisco, CA. The current assessment was performed to investigate the findings of a Piers Environmental Services Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (March 2009) of the Site indicating that “concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons beneath the property pose a potential risk of volatilization to indoor air.” This property is under consideration for purchase by the City of South San Francisco for commercial use. Through the conduct of this Assessment, CSS has found that hydrocarbon compounds are present in indoor air at the Site and in outdoor air in the Site vicinity, at similar concentrations. A likely source of hydrocarbon compounds is a nearby freeway, Highway 101 located about a block east of the Site. Among the hydrocarbon compounds detected, benzene was found at concentrations exceeding residential human health screening levels in both indoor and outdoor air. As indoor air concentrations of benzene are no greater than those found in outdoor air, commercial occupancy of the Site poses no greater risk to human health from benzene exposure than the background for other Site vicinity workers. The reader is referred to the body of this letter report for further details of this environmental investigation and its findings. The Site is occupied by a two story building founded on a concrete slab and perimeter foundation with no basement. The building was constructed prior to 1956 and is of concrete block construction with a flat roof. At the time of our indoor air sampling, the building was vacant and no operating HVAC system was present. To evaluate indoor air concentrations within the Site structure, CSS collected three indoor air samples over a six hour period on August 19, 2009. Samples were collected in 6-liter summa canisters pre-cleaned and evacuated by the testing laboratory, Air Toxics Limited of Folsom, California. A constant flow rate of air sampling over the period was implemented through the use of calibrated flow controllers, one dedicated to each canister. CSS’s field records of air sample collection are attached. The samples 5650-INDOOR1 and 3744-INDOOR2 were collect from rooms on the first floor in the northwest and southeast corners of the building, respectively. Sample 33779-INDOOR3 was collected in a central room on the second floor of the building. To gauge the background concentration of outdoor air in the vicinity of the building, sample 11882-OUTDOOR-BG was collected from the parking area behind the Site building near the southern corner of the Site property. An unopened summa canister sample, TRIP BLANK accompanied the collected samples and was analyzed for quality control purposes. All 6601 SSF Linden Indoor Report FINAL.doc samples were analyzed by the Air Toxics Limited laboratory for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX) by Modified EPA TO-15 SIM (Selective Ion Monitoring). Air Toxics Limited is certified by the California Department of Health Services. During the time of sample collection the Site was vacant and the building’s ventilation system was not operating. Wind conditions were calm in the morning hours, with an afternoon breeze from the northwest noted in the afternoon. The Air Toxics Limited laboratory report of the air sample analyses for BTEX are attached and summarized in Table 1. Also presented in the table are the California Human Health Screening Levels for Indoor Air (CHHSLs for Residential Land Use, California Environmental Protection Agency, January 2005) and the Environmental Screening Levels for Ambient and Indoor Air (ESLs for Residential Land Use, Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region, May 2008). Of the BTEX compounds, benzene was the only compound detected at a concentration greater than its corresponding screening level. Benzene was detected in all but the TRIP BLANK sample and at concentrations within a 33 narrow range, from 0.53 mg/M (3744-INDOOR2) to 0.61 mg/M (5650-INDOOR1 and 11882- 3 OUTDOOR-BG). The CHHSL and ESL for benzene is 0.084 mg/M. CHHSLs and ESLs are conservative screening levels, for carcinogens such as benzene, residential screening levels are based on -6 an estimated one in a million (1 x 10) cancer risk and exposure 24 hours a day, 350 days a year, for 30 years.. As the maximum concentration of benzene was detected in the outdoor background sample, its presence is reflective of a background condition and commercial occupancy of the Site poses no greater risk to human health from benzene exposure than the background for other Site vicinity workers. Sources of elevated benzene in the background include motor vehicle emissions and industrial activities. In the United States, on-road motor vehicles account for 48% of benzene emissions and 70% in Southern California’s South Coast Air Basin (EPA, National Air Quality and Emissions Trend Report 1999). The Site is located within about 700 feet of a major freeway, Highway 101, located a block east of the Site. 3 Based upon the proposed commercial use of the Site, the benzene screening level of 0.084 mg/M is not representative of the limited exposure frequency and duration of the proposed use of the Site. A Site specific risk assessment considering the specific details of Site development and use would be necessary to evaluate the specific human health risk to Site workers from background concentrations of benzene.

Waldeck, P.E., Principal Consultant Charles M. Salter Associates, Inc. 130 Sutter Street, Suite 500 San Francisco, CA 94104 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Environmental Noise Assessment for St. Vincent de Paul Food Services & Support Facility Relocation 12 May 2011 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Page 2 I NTRODUCTION This report is an assessment of environmental noise associated with the proposed relocation of the St. Vincent de Paul (SVDP) Food Services and Support Facility. The facility provides food services, clean clothing, showers, and limited laundry facilities to those in need. The facility is currently located at 344 Grand Avenue and proposes to relocate to 938 Linden Avenue; both sites are in South San Francisco. The properties to the east and west of the project site consist of commercial land uses; the property south of (behind) the project site is zoned residential. There is concern that food service activities and mechanical equipment at the new facility will generate noise impacts at the neighboring properties. We have conducted an environmental noise assessment to determine whether noise from the new facility will exceed the relevant City standards. ES XECUTIVE UMMARY  The current noise level at the adjacent properties is considered “Acceptable” per the City’s General Plan.  Noise from SVDP activity (patrons, vehicle parking, and kitchen exhaust fans) may increase the noise level at the surrounding properties by 1 to 2 dBA, a difference that is not considered noticeable.  The noise level at the adjacent properties will still be within the “Acceptable” limits established by the City’s General Plan. Environmental Noise Assessment for St. Vincent de Paul Food Services & Support Facility Relocation 12 May 2011 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Page 3 AC COUSTICAL RITERIA General Plan We have reviewed the City of South San Francisco’s 1999 General Plan and determined that the following noise goals are applicable to this project:  Policy 9-G-1 : Protect public health and welfare by eliminating or minimizing the effects of existing noise problems, and by preventing increased noise levels in the future.  Policy 9-I-7 : Require the control of noise at source through site design, building design, landscaping, hours of operation, and other techniques, for new developments deemed to be noise generators. The General Plan also includes a table (Table 9.2-1) summarizing noise and land-use criteria to determine site acceptability. This table is reprinted below: T1:SSFNAL-UCS ABLE OUTHANRANCISCO OISE NDANDSEOMPATIBILITY TANDARDS (CNEL) Residential Commercial Category Less than 65 dBA Less than 70 dBA A Between 65 and 70 dBA Between 70 and 80 dBA B Greater than 70 dBA Greater than 80 dBA C ASatisfactory: No special insulation requirements Development requires analysis of noise reduction B requirements and noise insulation as needed CDevelopment should not be undertaken Environmental Noise Assessment for St. Vincent de Paul Food Services & Support Facility Relocation 12 May 2011 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Page 4 Municipal Code Noise Ordinance We have reviewed Chapter 8.32 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code and found the following ordinances applicable to the project:  8.32.030 Maximum Permissible Sound Levels: (a) It is unlawful for any person to operate or cause to be operated any source of sound at any location within the city or allow the creation of any noise on property owned, leased, occupied or otherwise controlled by such person, which causes the noise level when measured on any other property to exceed: (1) The noise level standard for that land use as specified in Table 8.32.030 [Table 2 in o this report] for a cumulative period of more than thirty minutes in any hour; (2) The noise level standard plus five dB for a cumulative period of more than fifteen o minutes in any hour; (3) The noise level standard plus ten dB for a cumulative period of more than five o minutes in any hour; (4) The noise level standard plus fifteen dB for a cumulative period of more than one o minute in any hour; or (5) The noise level standard or the maximum measured ambient level, plus twenty dB for o any period of time.

Environmental Noise Assessment for St. Vincent de Paul Food Services & Support Facility Relocation 12 May 2011 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Page 5 ENE XISTING OISE NVIRONMENT To quantify the existing noise environment at the project site, we conducted two continuous 48- hour noise measurements (i.e., LT 1 and 2) from 22 February to 24 February 2011. Table 3 shows a summary of the measured data; Figure 1 shows the measurement locations. The dominant noise sources are vehicular traffic along Linden Avenue and occasional aircraft flyovers from San Francisco International Airport (typically departures). Minor noise sources include traffic on US-101 and general city noise. T3:NMD ABLEOISE EASUREMENTATA Monitor Location CNEL At the front gate of project site, approximately 70 feet from the Linden LT 1 64 dBA Avenue centerline. 8 feet above grade. At the southwest corner of the project site, approximately 225 feet from the LT 2 60 dBA Linden Avenue centerline. 8 feet above grade. NS OISE OURCES This section identifies and discusses potential noise sources from the project. In our discussions with SVDP staff, City planning staff, and a review of the Planning documents, we have identified the following noise sources:  Food deliveries  Staff/volunteers prepping and providing food  Patrons picking up food  Vehicle parking  Mechanical equipment (e.g., kitchen exhaust fan) We have addressed these noise sources in the following sections. Food Deliveries Based on our conversation with SVDP staff member Lisa Collins, food deliveries occur around 7:00 or 8:00 a.m. each morning via her personal minivan. About once per month, a medium- sized delivery truck will deliver food from Second Harvest or Costco. Environmental Noise Assessment for St. Vincent de Paul Food Services & Support Facility Relocation 12 May 2011 CSA Project No. 11-0029 Page 6 Staff, Volunteers, and Patrons Each weekday, staff arrive to the facility at around 8:00 a.m. and volunteers begin arriving at 8:30 a.m. Patrons begin lining up at around 9:00 a.m. and the facility is open from 10:00 a.m. to noon. On Saturdays, the facility is open from 11:00 a.m. until noon. Vehicle Parking Per the Sandis parking survey memo dated 28 February 2011; approximately 13 to 16 cars arrive and depart from the facility during weekdays. The majority of people who visit the site (whether patrons or volunteers) arrive on foot. Mechanical Equipment We understand that air conditioning is not planned for the facility, but there will be kitchen exhaust fans. The kitchen exhaust fans will either be located on top of the roof or in the roof- ceiling plenum. For either mounting location, the kitchen exhaust discharge will be a source of noise. C ALCULATIONS We have calculated the expected noise level from the noise sources described in the previous section. Our calculations are based upon the following:  Measurements of patron noise conducted at the existing SVDP facility on 29 March 2011  Parking noise based upon Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Traffic Noise Model  The new facility will operate on the same schedule as the existing facility  The kitchen exhaust fans will operate from 7:00 a.m. until noon each day, the fan or the discharge of the fan will be no closer than ten feet to any property line; the fans will operate at the maximum noise level allowed by the City’s noise ordinance When patrons were waiting for the kitchen to open and during food service, we measured a noise level of 65 to 70 dBA at a distance of 15 feet from the patrons at the existing facility. This noise occurred from 9:15 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. as the patrons waited outside for the SVDP facility to open. The staff and volunteers did not contribute significantly to the noise environment as their work occurred inside of the facility. Table 4 summarizes our calculation results.

An increase in noise level of less than 3 dBA is generally not noticeable. The noise level will still be considered “Acceptable” per the City’s General Plan at the adjacent properties. Our calculations assumed that the noise level from the kitchen exhaust fans will be 65 dBA at the 1 west and east property lines. If the noise level from the kitchen exhaust fans was only 60 dBA at the west and east property lines, then the increase in noise level would be 1 dBA or less. C ONCLUSION Noise from the project will increase the overall 24-hour CNEL noise level by 1 to 2 dBA, assuming “worst-case” kitchen exhaust fan noise. This increase is not expected to be noticeable. The noise level at the adjacent properties will still be considered “Acceptable” per the City’s land-use guidelines. 1 This corresponds to a sound power level (PWL) of 82 dBA; PWL levels are typically provided by mechanical equipment manufacturers.
