5. Discussion of Planning Commission Alternative Start Times and Return to In-Person
Meetings (Tony Rozzi, Chief Planner)
a) Commissioner Funes prefers 7pm and remote meetings for health and carbon
emissions.
b) Vice Chair Tzang assumes in person will be typical eventually but Zoom has been
very convenient, open to returning to in person or hybrid, flexible on time could do
6pm or 7pm; when do you eat if we start at 6pm – can you look into this?
c) Commissioner Evans – I’d like an earlier start given Agendas are going to be quite
full, likes remote but also prefers in person meetings.
d) Commissioner Fernandez likes remote, particularly when it is super late; but prefers
in person stuff and is back in office at work; could we plan ahead to do once a month
in person meetings ad plan around it? Open to new start times – 6pm is better but
flexible to start at 7pm, too.
e) Commissioner Faria likes in person meeting, good flow for meeting, I miss a lot by
not seeing the reaction of presenters.
f) Chair Shihadeh – we should go back to in person, we haven’t met in person, open to
hybrid; like idea of 6pm meeting.

Report regarding a Conditional Use Permit Modification to approved Conditions of Approval to allow extended

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission open a public hearing,receive this staff report with staff
proposed modifications to Condition of Approval No.13 and No.18,and then approve the Use Permit
Modification and accept completion of Condition of Approval No.16,requiring regular four-,eight-,and
twelve-month reviews regarding the approved Conditional Use Permit (UP19-0020)to allow extended business
hours, indoor live entertainment, and private events at Hometown Bowl.
MOTION TO ADOPT STAFF RECOMMENDATION
(1)Accept the twelve-month review and determine that Condition No.16 issued on June 18,2020 has
been satisfied,and approve Use Permit Modification modifying Conditions Nos.13 and 18 issued on June
18, 2020 as recommended by staff and included in Attachment 2.
BACKGROUND
On June 18,2020,a Conditional Use Permit was approved by the Planning Commission for Hometown Bowl,
located at 237 El Camino Real,allowing extended business hours,indoor live entertainment,and private events
at the bowling center.Hometown Bowl,formerly known as Brentwood Bowl,which was originally approved
by the City Council in 1951,consists of 16 bowling lanes,amusement arcade with 10 amusement devices
(arcade and video games),six pool tables,a bar,and a restaurant/café.The approved business hours are
Monday through Thursday,3 p.m.to 12 a.m.;Friday,3 p.m.to 2 a.m.;Saturday,10 a.m.to 2 a.m.;and Sunday,
10 a.m.to 12 a.m.Live entertainment and special events are subject to the approval of an event permit from the
Police Department at least 30 days in advance of each event.
Approval of Hometown Bowl’s Use Permit included several Conditions of Approval (see Attachment 1)to
ensure proper management of the bowling center operations and help mitigate any negative impacts to the
surrounding residential neighborhood,including the requirement for four-,eight-,and twelve-month reviews
and the ability to modify and/or revoke the Use Permit if full compliance is not met.
On April 21,2022,the Planning Commission conducted the required eight-month review of Hometown Bowl’s
Use Permit.Although the Use Permit was approved in June 2020,Hometown Bowl was not able to commence
full operations until a year later on June 15,2021,due to State and local restrictions on businesses as a result of
the COVID pandemic.This review constitutes the required twelve-month,and final,review of Hometown
Bowl’s operations and compliance with the Conditions of Approval.

DISCUSSION
Compliance with Conditions of Approval
Staff has reviewed each of the approved Conditions of Approval for compliance.The applicant was also tasked
with providing compliance information to staff for each Condition of Approval (see Attachment 3).
Since the completion of the required eight-month review in April 2022,the applicant has continued to
successfully comply with most of the approved Conditions of Approval, and only two remain outstanding.
Below are the approved Conditions of Approval that have yet to be complied with, followed by staff discussion.
Planning Division Condition No. 13
Text of condition:“The business owner/operator shall repaint the exterior façade along El Camino Real and
explore options to incorporate the previous bowling mural.Paint samples for the exterior shall be submitted to
the Planning Division within 30 days from the date of approval of the Use Permit.”
Staff Response:The applicant is still working with the City to repaint the exterior façade of the establishment
along El Camino Real.The applicant has attempted to raise funds to restore the Astro Boy mural to no avail;if
project funding is established, the applicant is open to revisiting the project.
Due to the outstanding nature of this Condition, staff recommends revising the language to read as follows:
No. 13: The business owner/operator shall explore opportunities to repaint the exterior façade along El Camino
Real and explore options to incorporate the previous bowling mural as funding becomes available. Paint samples
for the exterior shall be submitted to the Planning Division for review prior to completion.within 30 days from the
date of approval of the Use Permit.
Planning Division Condition No. 18
Text of condition:“The business owner/operator shall obtain sound readings from four separate areas adjacent
to the establishment,including near the main entrance,within the alleyway,and across the street,to
demonstrate compliance with SSFMC Chapter 8.32,Noise Regulations.The sound readings shall be submitted
to the Planning Division prior to hosting live entertainment or within 30 days from the date of the Use Permit
approval,whichever occurs first,and should reflect accurate noise levels during amplified live music events.If
the sound readings are above the permissible sound levels outlined in SSFMC Chapter 8.32,Noise Regulations,
the business owner/operator shall install noise attenuation measures,as discussed in Condition No.7 above.
Sound readings shall be obtained from the same locations after implementation of noise attenuation measures
and submitted to the Planning Division.”
Staff Response:In the applicant’s write-up of compliance with the approved Conditions of Approval (see
Attachment 3),it is mentioned that work with an AV team to ensure that noise requirements are met have been
continuous;however,copies of any completed sound readings have not been provided to Planning staff.
Therefore,compliance with this condition is still outstanding and shall be submitted within 30 days of the
twelve-month review.

compliance with SSFMC Chapter 8.32,Noise Regulations.The sound readings shall be submitted to the

the business owner/operator shall install noise attenuation measures,as discussed in Condition No.7 above.
Sound readings shall be obtained from the same locations after implementation of noise attenuation measures
and submitted to the Planning Division within 30 days of acceptance of the twelve-month review.
Safety and Security Concerns
Since the eight-month review of Hometown Bowl’s Use Permit in April 2022,the South San Francisco Police
Department (SSFPD)has responded to Hometown Bowl 37 times,with 34 of those being self-initiated contacts
by officers,a further decrease in calls for service compared to the period covering the required eight-month
review (November 2021 to April 2022).Calls for service from April 2022 to present are down 40%from the
previous review period (November 2021 to April 2022)and down 85%from the initial review period (June to
October 2021).
While there are still concerns related to large crowds of customers loitering outside the business and spilling
into the neighboring residential area and/or nearby businesses,customers leaving intoxicated,and loud noise,
either emanating from the business or by customers loitering in the area because of the nature of the use,safety
and security issues are continuously being addressed due to compliance with the approved Conditions of
Approval.
ZONING CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS

ZONING CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS
The project site is located in the El Camino Real Mixed Use (ECRMX)Zoning District.Per South San
Francisco Municipal Code (SSFMC)Section 20.090.002 (Land Use Regulations-Commercial,Office,and
Mixed-Use Districts),Commercial Entertainment and Recreation uses are allowed subject to approval of a

Permit approval is required for any use with hours of operation between midnight and 6 a.m.,except for
properties within the Mixed Industrial Zone District that do not directly abut another zone district,and for any
commercial use with live entertainment. The required use permits have been secured by Hometown Bowl.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS
The General Plan Land Use Designation for the project site is El Camino Real Mixed Use.This designation is
intended to accommodate high-intensity active uses and mixed-use development in the South El Camino Real
area. Commercial recreation is an encouraged use within this land use designation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
At the time of Use Permit approval in June 2020,the project was determined to be categorically
exempt under the provisions of CEQA,Class 1,Section 15301,Existing Facilities.This exemptionCity of South San Francisco Printed on 11/10/2022Page 3 of 4

exempt under the provisions of CEQA,Class 1,Section 15301,Existing Facilities.This exemption
covers the operation,repair,maintenance,permitting,leasing,licensing,or minor alteration of
existing public or private structures,facilities,mechanical equipment,or topographical features,
involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use.This twelve-month review of the
approved Use Permit for Hometown Bowl is not subject to the provisions of CEQA,as the review
does not include any changes to the project.
CONCLUSION
On June 18,2020,a Conditional Use Permit was approved by the Planning Commission for Hometown Bowl,
allowing extended business hours,indoor live entertainment,and private events at the bowling center.Approval
of Hometown Bowl’s Use Permit included several Conditions of Approval to ensure proper management of the
bowling center operations and help mitigate any negative impacts to the surrounding residential neighborhood.
Staff has reviewed Hometown Bowl’s operations and compliance with the Conditions of Approval and finds
that since the required eight-month review of the approved Use Permit in April 2022,the applicant has
continued to successfully comply with the majority of the approved Conditions of Approval and address safety
and security concerns with significant investment in on-site security and customer management during peak
weekend evenings.
Therefore,staff recommends that the Planning Commission open a public hearing,receive this staff report with
staff proposed modifications to Condition of Approval No.13 and No.18,and then approve the Use Permit
Modification and accept completion of Condition of Approval No.16,requiring regular four-,eight-,and
twelve-month reviews regarding the approved Conditional Use Permit (UP19-0020)to allow extended business
hours, indoor live entertainment, and private events at Hometown Bowl.

Report regarding consideration of a Use Permit to allow Indoor Entertainment at 608 Dubuque Avenue in the
Freeway Commercial Zoning District in accordance with Title 20 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code
(SSFMC)and determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA).(Victoria Kim, Associate Planner)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Use Permit (UP22-0007),based on the attached
Draft Findings and subject to the attached Draft Conditions of Approval,and determine that the Project is
categorically exempt under the provisions of CEQA, Class 1, Section 15301, Existing Facilities.
MOTION TO ADOPT STAFF RECOMMENDATION
1.Make CEQA findings and approve the Use Permit,subject to the attached draft Findings and
draft Conditions of Approval.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The applicant (Irene Li)submitted an application on May 26,2022 for a Use Permit proposing live
entertainment activities at an existing restaurant named HL Peninsula.Prior to the current restaurant use,the
project building was used for retail and warehousing.In 2017,the applicant obtained a business license (No.
110185)to open the current restaurant use permitted by right.The Use Permit request is solely for adding the
use of Indoor Entertainment with the existing restaurant services.The project would not change the existing
building exterior and site conditions.
Site Overview
The subject property is located at 608 Dubuque Avenue in the Freeway Commercial (FC)Zoning District.A
large commercial parking lot is situated next to the subject property on the north and the east.The Project is in
the East of 101 area bordered by Dubuque Avenue on the west and a new research and development office
building which is currently under construction on the south.The site has a one-story restaurant building
(approximately 13,900 square feet)with parking spaces mainly on the south with a couple of standard parking
and accessible parking spaces.
Proposed Project
The applicant proposes to have live entertainment incident to the current restaurant building and a Use Permit is
required for the indoor entertainment in the FC Zoning District.Restaurant visitors are utilizing the shared
parking lot on site and the project would not need to modify the existing parking conditions and use.The
proposed use would not expand the present building footprint or increase the current occupancy.
Operation Plan
The proposed indoor entertainment would be within HL Peninsula restaurant building during business hours
between 10:30 a.m.and 2:30 p.m.and 5:00 p.m.to 9:30 p.m.,Monday through Sunday.According to the
submitted operation plan (Ref.Attachment 3),the maximum number of employees would be 21 in the morning
and afternoon shifts and customers would be no more than 350 presumably.The live entertainment activitiesCity of South San Francisco Printed on 11/10/2022Page 1 of 3

Version:1 Item #:3.
and afternoon shifts and customers would be no more than 350 presumably.The live entertainment activities
encompass live band playing and live singing performance for social meetings such as birthday parties,
wedding banquets,family gathering,and work events.The incidental entertainment use to the restaurant would
create indoor recreational opportunities and provide a social amenity to the neighborhood in the East of 101
area.
ZONING CONSISTENCY
Land Use
The project property is located in the Freeway Commercial (FC)Zoning District.According to South San
Francisco Municipal Code (SSFMC)Section 20.110.002 (Land Use Regulations),a broad range of commercial
and employment uses are allowed or with the approval of a Minor or a Use Permit.The proposed live
entertainment is considered as an indoor entertainment which is an allowed use after review and approval of a
Use Permit.
Parking Requirements
The current ingress and egress access to the project parking lot is from Dubuque Avenue with two driveways on
western part of the property.The project parking lot located between the existing restaurant building and
adjacent building in the northeast from the project site (previously Lowe’s)were developed jointly and have
been shared interchangeably for visitors to both properties (Ref.Attachment 5 and 6).The Lowe’s building is
vacant at present and a large portion of the shared parking lot is leased to a construction company to access and
utilize the current construction project at 580 Dubuque Avenue.There would be 102 parking spaces for the
restaurant,Monday to Friday and 230 parking spaces during weekends according to the Traffic Control Plan
(Ref. Attachment 7).
Pursuant to SSFMC Section 20.330.004 (Required Parking Spaces),a total of 185 parking spaces are required
for the HL Peninsula restaurant (1 per 75 square feet)and 247 parking spaces for the Lowe’s building as 1
parking space required per 500 square feet.The existing shared parking spaces provide sufficient spaces with
670 parking stalls and would be in accordance with the parking requirements and development standards.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS
The project site is designated as Business Commercial consistent with the City’s General Plan adopted in 1999.
The land use designation is intended to provide a diverse range of non-residential uses including business,
visitor-oriented,and regional commercial activities,and intended for business and professional offices,and
visitor service establishments,and retail.The project includes Indoor Entertainment at the restaurant which is a
commercial activity use and meets the intent of the adopted General Plan designation.The proposed live
entertainment activities would be an ancillary use to the existing restaurant serving for the neighborhood in the
East of 101 area to hold community and office events.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Based on staff’s assessment,the Applicant’s request for Indoor Entertainment at the project site would be
within an existing restaurant building and no physical expansion in the current use and proposed use.The
project,as conditioned,would not result in substantial changes to traffic,air quality,water or noise on the
surrounding community and would not have any significant effect on the existing environment.Therefore,it is
staff’s assessment that the project is categorically exempt under the provision of CEQA (Class 1,Section
15301, Existing Facilities).

The project site is 204,742 square feet or 4.7 acres.The project site is currently vacant and maintained as an
active construction site after relocation of some landfill material and the regrading of the remaining refuse and
landfill cap and cover.
Land uses in the project vicinity include a mixture of industry,warehousing,retail,offices,hotels,marinas,and
bioscience research and development facilities.The area is also currently separated from most of South San
Francisco’s residential uses by U.S.101 (the closest of which are about 3,500 feet to the west)though some live
-aboard boats are located at the two marinas located on Oyster Point and Oyster Cove marinas in the OPSP
area.
The site is flanked by the existing marina to the north and the San Francisco Bay to the south.The Bay Trail
extends along the southern edge of the site and connects around the end of the peninsula.To the west of the site
a dedicated public open space is planned while to the east are existing commercial buildings and parking lots
with access to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal.The site is a “Brownfield site”that has been regraded
and capped by Kilroy Realty,the master developer of the specific plan,and is currently sitting vacant,ready for
development.
Proposed hotel amenities include a restaurant,lobby lounge,event ballroom,meeting rooms,fitness facilities,
and roof top bar.Hotel amenities,specifically the restaurant,lounge,and roof top bar,are intended to be
available to the public and provide views both north and south across the San Francisco Bay.
The project site is proposed to be landscaped around the perimeter and throughout the proposed hotel building.
The planting palette focuses on evergreen,dense screening trees and shrubs along the perimeter of outdoor
spaces to protect against the cold winds while still providing a lush,water-wise garden aesthetic in the central
program areas.When possible,materials such as permeable pavers,flag stone,decomposed granite and gabion
walls will be used as part of the design vocabulary.These planting and hardscape design philosophies are seen
throughout the site.
BACKGROUND
The Project is located within the Oyster Point Specific Plan area,an 81 acre redevelopment in South San
Francisco approved in 2011.The OPSP included replacing the existing 403,212 square feet of light
industrial/office space known as the Oyster Point Business Park with an up to 2,300,000 square foot
office/research and development (R&D)development,improvements to the site circulation,utilities,and the
landfill cap,provision of a flexible use recreation area and bay-front open space,and replacement of uses in the
Oyster Point Marina area,potentially including one or two hotels with an aggregate of up to 350 rooms.The
Specific Plan’s Phase One buildings (660,000 square feet)were completed in early 2022,while remaining
phases are underway.
The approximately 85-acre OPSP site is located about 3/4 of a mile east of U.S.101,at the eastern end (Bay
side)of Oyster Point and Marina Boulevards.The OPSP is part of the City of South San Francisco’s “East of
101”planning area,the traditional and continued core of South San Francisco’s industrial and technological
businesses.The East of 101 area consists of roughly 1,700 acres of land bound by San Francisco Bay on the
east side,U.S.101 and railway lines on the west,the City of Brisbane and San Francisco Bay on the north,and
San Francisco International Airport on the south.

REQUESTED ENTITLEMENTS
As required by the South San Francisco Municipal Code (SSFMC),the proposed project requires the following
entitlements:
·Design Review for the proposed hotel building and site improvements;
·Use Permit for the proposed parking reduction,
·Transportation Demand Management plan for a nonresidential project resulting in more than 100
average daily trips.
·Development Agreement for business terms
All signage for the proposed hotel will be applied for under separate permits.
Design Review (SSFMC 20.480)
The project was reviewed by the City’s Development Review Board (DRB)on May 17,2022.The DRB liked
the design concept and recommended approval with conditions due to the project’s well thought out
architecture and landscape design as evident in the building elevations and landscape materials.The Board
commented the design is beautiful,the lighting is wonderful,and the outdoor space is well designed for wind
and the SSF climate
The DRB also provided input and feedback to the applicant regarding landscaping,screening service areas and
parking stalls and ramps,landscaping and retaining walls.The applicant has revised the plans in response to
the DRB’s comments and concerns.
The proposed project was reviewed and recommended for approval to the Planning Commission by the DRB
because the proposed hotel building and site improvements are consistent with the City’s applicable design
guidelines, including but not limited to the following:
·The proposed hotel building includes adequate design features to create architectural interest and avoid
a large-scale, bulky and “box-like” appearance.
·Long facades are broken up into smaller visual components through variations in form and texture.
·Wall planes are varied and exterior building walls vary in depth and/or direction.
·Building walls exhibit offsets,recesses,or projections with significant depth,or a repeated pattern of
offsets, recesses, or projections of smaller depth.
·There is variety in height and roof forms.Building height is varied so that portions of the building have
a change in height and are varied over different portions of the building through changes in the roof
parapets, elevators and stairway projections.
·The building façade incorporates details such as window recesses and changes in material.The use of
materials, textures, and colors enhance architectural interest and emphasize details and changes in plane.
·Some of the architectural features of the main façade are incorporated into the rear and side elevations.
The hotel is designed in such a way to maximize bay views while providing protected amenity spaces from the
prevailing winds.The hotel massing steps back as it raises to the higher floors,providing suite terraces and a

break from the vertically on the ends.
The proposed materials consist of two-tones of darker bronze and champagne bronze anodized metal panels
accented through darker grey metal panels.Two different glazing tints are considered,a vision glass to pair
with the bronze panels and a darker blue glazing to pair with the dark grey metal.The combination of these
materials provide contrast in the massing forms and help further break up the façade of the tower.At the base
of the hotel,a split face,dry stacked stone base helps break up massing and integrate it into the landscape
amenities.Site walls are executed using gabion walls to prevent site settlement cracks that may occur due to
the nature of the soil’s conditions.
While the location and views are a premium resource,the environmental factors of harsh winds,cold climate
and poor soil conditions were also taken into account by the design.To work with these conditions,the planting
palette focuses on evergreen,dense screening trees and shrubs along the perimeter of outdoor spaces to protect
against the cold winds while still providing a lush,water-wise garden aesthetic in the central program areas.
When possible,materials such as permeable pavers,flag stone,decomposed granite and gabion walls will be
used as part of the design vocabulary.These planting and hardscape design philosophies are seen throughout
the site
Use Permit for Reduced Parking for Airport-Oriented Hotels and Motels 20.330.006(C)
For airport-oriented hotels a Use Permit may be approved for a reduced off-street parking ratio if the applicant
provides substantial justification. Justification shall take into account the following factors and conditions:
1.Distance the hotel or motel is located from the airport.Airport-oriented hotels and motels are usually
located no further than three miles from the San Francisco International Airport.The proposed Hotel would be
located within three miles of the San Francisco International (SFO) Airport’s border.
2.Availability of airport bus and/or limousine service.The location of this hotel will be served by various
airport shuttle, bus and limousine services.
3.Proximity of auto rental agencies to the site.Additional parking may be required for rental facilities on
the site.Since San Francisco International Airport is located in close proximity to the hotel there are many
rental car services nearby.There are approximately 6-8 car rental facilities all within less than 3 miles of the
proposed hotel.
4.Availability of parking facilities adjoining the site which have peak use hours different from peak hours
of the hotel or motel.In the project vicinity there is a combination of several large scale public and private
surface parking lots which would have alternate parking peaks from the hotel.
5.Documentation of actual use of parking spaces at an existing and comparable facility for an extended
period of time.Parking demand estimated using standard rates published by ITE in Parking Generation,5th
Edition is expected to be 259 parking spaces,a deficit of 27 spaces.However,with the implementation of the
TDM plan measures,discussed further in the following section,the proposed parking supply is expected to be
adequate.
6.Availability of on-site meeting rooms and conference facilities.The project as proposed would provide
approximately 14,300 square feet of on-site meeting rooms and conference facilities.

File #:22-954 Agenda Date:11/17/2022
Version:1 Item #:
7.Designation of additional parking spaces to allow for extended parking for guests using the airport.As
proposed,the Hotel would not be providing extended parking (e.g.,for long-term airport parking).As proposed,
the Hotel would not be providing extended parking (e.g.,for long-term airport parking).As proposed,the
parking stalls would be solely for overnight guests and employees.
8.In determining the required number of off-street parking spaces needed for an airport-oriented hotel or
motel,the Planning Commission shall include provisions for additional off-street parking spaces to serve
employee needs at the rate of one-half space per employee and for related uses such as restaurants and
conference/meeting rooms.As calculated the provided parking includes parking spaces to serve employee
needs and any ancillary uses.
As documented above, the project satisfies the conditions for reduced parking for airport oriented hotels.
The project proposes a reduction in the number of required parking spaces on site and is projected to be able to
meet parking demand with the implementation of the Transportation Demand Management plan and as
discussed in the Parking Study.
Transportation Demand Management Plan (20.400.006)
A Transportation Demand Management program is required for a nonresidential project resulting in more than
100 average daily trips to reduce the amount of traffic generated by new nonresidential development.
According to the transportation assessment,the proposed project is expected to generate an average of 2,798
trips per day, including 161 total trips during the a.m. peak hour and 207 total trips during the p.m. peak hour.
The Transportation Demand Management plan for the proposed hotel outlines numerous trip reduction
measures applicable to both guests and employees including but not limited to subsidized transit passes for
employees encouraging uses of Caltrain,BART,SF Bay Ferry and SamTrans services,bicycle storage showers
and lockers and repair,and strategies to reduce employee commutes such as carpool/vanpool ridematching,
guaranteed ride home programs,and free parking for carpool/vanpools just to name a few.All of these and
more trip reduction measures discussed in the project TDM plan are feasible and relevant to the operation of the
proposed hotel land use and it’s guests and employees.
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
The Applicant and the City are negotiating a Development Agreement to clarify and obligate Project features
and mitigation measures.The parties are still engaged in active negotiations and many of the deal points are
still outstanding.However,all outstanding deal points relate to business terms;the parties are in agreement on
the nature and density of the development.A draft of the Development is attached to the entitlements
resolution.
Key features of the Development Agreement where the parties are in agreement include:
·The term of the Development Agreement is ten (10) years.
·Execute and Implement an Operation and Maintenance Agreement with the City providing the City
and/or the Water Board with financial assurance for completion of Buyer’s Post-Closing Mitigation
Measures.
·Developer to enter into a Transient Occupancy Tax Rebate Agreement with the City providing for 50%

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project site is within the area planned for development as a part of the 2011 Oyster Point Specific Plan and
associated 2011 Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse Number 2010022070).The current project
is located on the eastern peninsula portion of the 85-acre OPSP area,including the area identified in the in the
OPSP as the Future Hotel Site.
Consistent with the OPSP and its associated EIR,a 350-room hotel is currently being proposed.The current
project proposes up to 275,200 square feet of area,including approximately 12,000 square feet of restaurant
space plus other amenities common for a hotel use including an entry lobby with lounge,meeting rooms,
fitness facilities,roof top bar,and the associated back of house facilities to service the amenities.This total
square footage also includes an additional 14,200 square feet of building space proposed as a future expansion
phase to include an event ballroom and additional meeting space.The exterior space includes parking and
circulation elements, landscaping, and outdoor terraces and event spaces.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15168 provide that when a
Programmatic EIR has been prepared and certified,later activities (such as the current project)determined by
the lead agency as being within the scope of the that EIR do not require subsequent environmental review when
the project meets the criteria outlined in Section 15162.
CEQA Guidelines section 15183 provides that projects consistent with the development density established by
existing zoning policies or community plan for which an EIR was certified shall not require additional
environmental review,except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project-specific significant
effects that are peculiar to the project or its site.
The environmental checklist prepared for the project dated October 2022 concludes that the project is within
the analysis outlined in the 2011 EIR and that as applied to the project, the criteria outlined in Sections 15162
and 15168 do not necessitate preparation of an additional environmental document. The environmental
checklist also demonstrates that the proposed project qualifies for streamlining under CEQA Guidelines Section
15183 as there are no project-specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site. The
checklist serves as substantial evidence that the current project is within the scope of the previous analysis and
that subsequent CEQA analysis is not required for the proposed project.
CONCLUSION
The project,as conditioned,is compliant with the City’s Municipal Code,Development Standards and Design

Project Description - Oyster Point Hotel
Revised: June 27, 2022
Prepared by SB Architects on behalf of Ensemble Real Estate Investments
1. Introduction:
Ensemble Real Estate Investments (“Applicant”) proposes to develop a full-service hotel on the
peninsula of Oyster Point designated within South San Francisco specific plan (formal address
yet to be assigned). The applicant seeks approval of the Precise Plan (“Entitlements”) by the end
of 2022 with the intent of submitting to the building department for permit approval by the end
of 2023. The project intends to service the Oyster Point developments currently under
construction or planned to be built by Kilroy Reality while also providing public amenities to the
broader community East of the 101 area.
2. Setting:
The property is approximately 204,742 square foot parcel (4.70 acres; APN: 015-011-350) that
sits on the peninsula of the Oyster Point specific plan and is dedicated for a future hotel
development. The site is flanked by the existing marina to the north and the San Francisco Bay
to the south. The Bay Trail extends along the southern edge of the site and connects around the
end of the peninsula. To the west of the site a dedicated public open space is planned while to
the east are existing commercial buildings and parking lots with access to the South San
Francisco Ferry Terminal. The site is a “Brownfield site” that has been regraded and capped by
Kilroy Reality, the master developer of the specific plan, and is currently sitting vacant, ready for
development.
3. Proposed Project
a. Project Features
The proposed project would consist of 350 hotel rooms, restaurant, lobby lounge, event
ballroom, meeting rooms, fitness facilities, roof top bar and the associated back of house
facilities to service the amenities. Hotel amenities, specifically the restaurant, lounge, and
roof top bar, are intended to be available to the public and provide views both north and
south across the San Francisco bay. A dedicated arrival for the restaurant from outside
guests is currently considered adjacent to a new pedestrian connection that connects the
southern Bay Trail to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal.
78
In total the gross building area is approximately 254,000 square feet in habitable area and
will provide a total of 207 parking spaces of which 148 will be uncovered surface parking
spaces and 59 covered parking spaces (40 of which will be valet operated as a mechanically
stacked system). A screened loading dock with space allocated for two dedicated service
trucks is provided adjacent to the back of house facilities with access through the central
parking lot.
The building will be classified high-rise at 12 habitable floors with the last floor served sitting
at 119ft above grade. Additional height is considered at the top of the building for
mechanical equipment screening and elevator overruns that will put the overall height of
the building at approximately 148 feet above grade.
Landscape & Site Design Narrative
Oyster Point Hotel is nestled in prime real estate along the east bay of South San Francisco
city. While the location and views are a premium resource, the environmental factors of
harsh winds, cold climate and poor soil conditions allow for creative design solutions.
To work with these conditions, the planting palette will focus on evergreen, dense screening
trees and shrubs along the perimeter of outdoor spaces to protect against the cold winds
while still providing a lush, water-wise garden aesthetic in the central program areas. When
possible, materials such as permeable pavers, flag stone, decomposed granite and gabion
walls will be used as part of the design vocabulary. These planting and hardscape design
philosophies are seen throughout the site and are key to the cohesive hotel guest
experience.
The start of the landscape experience begins at the main hotel entry drive flanked by
specimen trees that greet you into the arrival courtyard. The courtyard features an elegant
porte-cochere and outdoor living room space that transitions guest into the hotel lobby.
This space can also be reached by foot from the street or the adjacent public BCDC trail to
the east through the enhanced pedestrian links.
To the west of the building entrance is the valet parking lot that doubles as a flexible event
space with a pre-function terrace attached to the lobby. The ground plane is a combination
of enhanced concrete pavers, grasscrete and turf lawn which help soften the look of the
valet parking area and provide permeable surfaces for water quality control opportunities.
The edges are wrapped by a mixture of pine, specimen and accent trees which protect the
space from harsh winds and screen any unwanted views of the off-site facilities to the
south-west.
From inside the lobby, guest can look out to the south-east over the hotel’s art garden and
toward the beautiful bay views. This garden area acts as a retreat for the hotel guest which
includes a variety of amenities such as a breakout lawn, fire pit, spa terrace, art moments
79
and group seating clusters. The landscape design in this area is also a much more diverse
and colorful California Coastal Garden Palette that features variety of flowing shrubs and
plant textures.
To the east of the art garden is the multi-purpose event court. This area is mostly a passive
reflection space that can be set up to host a variety of events including wedding receptions,
bayside garden dining, and small concerts. Views are set up along two axes orientated
toward a background of either large specimen trees or open views of the bay. The ground
plane is a mixture of enhanced concrete pavers, flagstone and decomposed granite which
give the space a more organic, natural feel.
Overall, the landscape design aims to welcome guest to experience the outdoor program as
an extension of the hotel’s interior spaces.
Architecture & Materiality:
The hotel is positioned in such a way to maximize bay views while provided protected
amenity spaces from the prevailing winds. The tower steps the massing as it raises to the
higher floors, providing suite terraces and a break from the vertically on the ends. Guests
arrive at an outdoor living room and are oriented on view through the transparent lobby to
the bay beyond.
The materiality of the tower consists of two-tones of darker bronze and champagne bronze
anodized metal panels accented through darker grey metal panels. Two different glazing
tints are considered, a vision glass to pair with the bronze panels and a darker blue glazing
to pair with the dark grey metal. The combination of these materials provide contrast in the
massing forms and help further break up the façade of the tower. As the tower lands on the
site, a split face, dry stacked stone base helps receive the tower and integrate it into the
landscape amenities. Site walls are executed using gabion walls to prevent site settlement
cracks that may occur due to the nature of the soil’s conditions.
b. Requested Approvals
The applicant plans to submit the Precise Plan application by May 1, 2022 and is seeking
approval of the project’s Precise Plan by the end of calendar year 2022.
Pending approval of the precise plan, the Applicant intends to submit the project plans for
construction permit by the end of 2023.
Additional review will be submitted to the FAA for confirmation of building height with
respect to the airport approach corridors.
80
c. Public Benefits
The Project aims to fill the market need, providing a 4-star hotel to service the growing
business developments within the Oyster Point specific plan and surrounding areas. The
project will provide additional function and meeting space while being positioned at an
International Audience for business travelers. The project amenities will provide an anchor
for the community with its food and beverage offerings as well as gathering opportunities
within the lounge and bar spaces.
The hotel can further support the potential for a future ferry terminal proposed by the
South San Francisco City within the marina to the north of the hotel while providing
employment and career opportunities for the South San Francisco workforce.
The estimated tax revenue for the city is projected at $146,349,000 over a 20-year period.

Narrative documents the Design Review Board comments addressed from the Precise Plan Submittal dated
04/29/2022.
Design Team responses to the Design Review Board Recommendations dated June 1, 2022
Project No: P22-0014: UP22-0001, DR22-005, DA22-0001
Please see below our corrections in response to the comments.
Item No. Description
Design Review Board Response Narrative
1. The Board liked the rise, terraces, porte-cochere, shape, and flow of the proposed design concept, and
throughout the design was well articulated. The Board commented that the architecture and landscape design
are both thoughtful as evident in the building elevations and landscaping materials.
Response:
• Comment noted, no response needed.
2. The Board also commented the design is beautiful, the lighting is wonderful, and the outdoor space is well
designed for the wind. The Board stated the proposed project is the best design of a hotel the city has seen in
many years.
Response:
• Comment noted, no response needed.
3. The development has an excellent outdoor space for individuals to utilized and is well planned for the wind
conditions.
Response:
• Comment noted, no response needed.
82
4. Review the landscaping plans, as some species will not survive the SSF elements due to wind and cold issues.
• Holly Oak will not work well on this site.
• Coast Redwood will not survive the harsh wind.
• Arbutus unedo is more of a shrub, consider using Arbutus unedo ‘Marina’, which is a successful
evergreen tree in SSF.
• Leyland Cypress is often a short-lived tree in the area.
• Myoporum laetum are attacked by thrips and many of them died or died back severely during the last
big frost.
• Cistus, Rockrose will need good sandy soil, and is often short lived.
• Clematus armandii vine will not take wind. Take care of the orientation if used.
• Liriope suffers from snail infestations and requires additional maintenance.
Response:
• Quercus ilex, Sequoia sempervirens, Cupressocyparis x leylandii, Myoporum laetum, Cistus salvifolius
‘Prostratus’, Clematus armandii and Liriope spp. will all be removed from the current planting palette.
• Arbutus unedo will be replaced with Arbutus unedo ‘Marina’.
• The above is a condition of approval at future design phase.
5. Consider planting clusters of trees off-site on the adjacent vacant parcel and coordinate with the City to plant
beyond the south edge, if possible, for a more organic look and feel rather than a strict line of trees at the
perimeter of the site and parking area.
Response:
• Proposed trees along the perimeters on the hotel site will be laid out more informally and have irregular
spacing to create an organic appearance.
o Adjacent Open Space Parcel: Design Team is working with Kilroy, SSF City and BCDC to
incorporate the required North/South pedestrian connection and will provide landscaping on the
hotel property long side of this. Note that the latest interim design of the open space access
locates a public parking lot and access to Marina Blvd. at the northeast corner of the open space
and would prevent the design team from planting any cluster of trees like what has been planned
adjacent to Kilroy’s Phase 1.
o Northeast Hotel Parcel: Fire Lane access is being revised to provide additional planting at the
northeast corner. Planting along the entire east property line may be limited due to increased
width of fire lane, although the design team is working with the fire marshal for potential
alternative fire access measures.
6. Consider adding ground floor solar panels.
Response:
• Photovoltaic/Solar panels placement are currently considered integrated as part of the roof parapet
screening at the top of the hotel tower. Additional areas can be identified for solar ready locations
pending additional need on lower, southern facing, roof expanses.
83
7. Screen service areas on the façade including but not limited to the trash enclosure.
Response:
• Gabion site walls with operated gates will screen the hotel service dock & employee parking zone. These
will only be opened when vehicles arrive or leave from the service area and will be promptly closed once

Subject: Development Review Comments on Oyster Point Hotel (Project) April 29, 2022 Project Precise Plan
Staff at the San Mateo County Flood and Sea Level Rise Resiliency District (OneShoreline) have reviewed
the Project documents and offer the following comments:
1. So that the Project and adjacent public and private assets can function under long-term future
climate-driven conditions, the Project’s stormwater conveyance infrastructure should be designed
with those conditions in mind. For areas adjacent to San Francisco Bay, OneShoreline’s objective
assumes six feet of sea level rise.
2. As another aspect of climate change in our area is the occurrence of infrequent, but more extreme, storm
events, the Project should ensure that the first 1.25 inches of rainwater from an individual storm event
remains on the Project site rather than impact adjacent properties. Please provide documentation of the
Project’s stormwater storage capacity.
3. The Applicant should expect that sea level rise protection and enhancements related to trails and the
environment in the Project area will be aligned with adjacent areas of the shoreline. To ensure that
alignment and avoid the need to retrofit and disrupt the Project site, the Applicant should coordinate
with staff of OneShoreline and the City.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide input for the long-term viability and success of this important project.
Sincerely,
Len Materman

II. Executive Summary
The project site is within the area planned for development as a part of the 2011 Oyster Point
Specific Plan and associated 2011 Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse Number
2010022070). The current project is located on the eastern peninsula portion of the 85‐acre OPSP
area, including the area identified in the in the OPSP as the Future Hotel Site.
Consistent with the OPSP and its associated EIR, a 350‐room hotel is currently being proposed. The
current project proposes up to 275,200 square feet of area, including approximately 12,000 square
feet of restaurant space plus other amenities common for a hotel use including an entry lobby with
lounge, meeting rooms, fitness facilities, roof top bar, and the associated back of house facilities to
service the amenities. This total square footage also includes an additional 14,200 square feet of
building space proposed as a future expansion phase to include an event ballroom and additional
meeting space. The exterior space includes parking and circulation elements, landscaping, and
outdoor terraces and event spaces.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15168 provides that when a
Programmatic EIR has been prepared and certified, later activities (such as the proposed project)
determined by the lead agency as being within the scope of the that EIR do not require subsequent
environmental review, unless the criteria set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 triggering
subsequent environmental review are met. This document serves as substantial evidence that the
proposed project is within the scope of the OPSP EIR and that subsequent environmental review is
not required since the project would not have effects that were not examined in the program EIR,
and no substantial changes or new information has arisen that would result in new significant
environmental impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
impacts.
This document also examines the proposed project’s consistency with the OPSP EIR pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, which allows for streamlining the environmental review process for
projects that are consistent with the development density established by existing zoning,
community plan or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified.
92
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 3
III. Background, Purpose, and Organization
Background
The project site is within the 2011 Oyster Point Specific Plan (OPSP) area. The OPSP was originally
approved in March 2011, together with amendments to the South San Francisco General Plan and
the South San Francisco Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 20.230), and the associated EIR was certified
(2011 EIR). The OPSP included replacing the existing 403,212 square feet of light industrial/office
space known as the Oyster Point Business Park with an up to 2,300,000 square foot office/research
and development (R&D) development, improvements to the site circulation, utilities, and the landfill
cap, provision of a flexible use recreation area and bay‐front open space, and replacement of uses in
the Oyster Point Marina area, potentially including one or two hotels with an aggregate of up to 350
rooms.
The OPSP, being a specific plan, was analyzed in the 2011 EIR (State Clearinghouse Number
2010022070) as a whole on a programmatic level. The 2011 EIR additionally analyzed the Phase 1
development on a project level, as project‐level details were proposed for that phase at the time.
Development of office/R&D in the Phase 1 area, including refuse relocation and regrading of this
hotel site, consistent with the 2011 EIR has previously been approved and was completing
construction at the time of this report.
The 2011 EIR for the OPSP is hereby incorporated by reference and can be obtained from the City of
South San Francisco Economic & Community Development Department at 315 Maple Avenue in
South San Francisco, and on the City of South San Francisco website at: http://weblink.ssf.net under
Planning Division/Environmental Reports/Oyster Point Specific Plan.
Purpose
This Environmental Checklist examines the environmental effects of the proposed project to
determine whether the proposed project is within the scope of the 2011 EIR for the OPSP or
whether further environmental review is required. This document has been prepared in accordance
with the relevant provisions of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines as implemented by the City of South
San Francisco.
CEQA Guidelines section 15168 provides that later activities in the program must be examined in the
light of the program EIR to determine whether an additional environmental document must be
prepared and specifies how a program EIR is used with those later activities.
(1) If a later activity would have effects that were not examined in the program EIR, a new
initial study would need to be prepared leading to either an EIR or a negative declaration.
That later analysis may tier from the program EIR as provided in Section 15152.
(2) If the agency finds that pursuant to Section 15162, no subsequent EIR would be required,
the agency can approve the activity as being within the scope of the project covered by the
program EIR, and no new environmental document would be required. Whether a later
activity is within the scope of a program EIR is a factual question that the lead agency
determines based on substantial evidence in the record. Factors that an agency may
consider in making that determination include, but are not limited to, consistency of the
93
Page 4 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
later activity with the type of allowable land use, overall planned density and building
intensity, geographic area analyzed for environmental impacts, and covered infrastructure,
as described in the program EIR.
(3) An agency shall incorporate feasible mitigation measures and alternatives developed in
the program EIR into later activities in the program.
(4) Where the later activities involve site specific operations, the agency should use a
written checklist or similar device to document the evaluation of the site and the activity to
determine whether the environmental effects of the operation were within the scope of the
program EIR.
(5) A program EIR will be most helpful in dealing with later activities if it provides a
description of planned activities that would implement the program and deals with the
effects of the program as specifically and comprehensively as possible. With a good and
detailed project description and analysis of the program, many later activities could be
found to be within the scope of the project described in the program EIR, and no further
environmental documents would be required.
CEQA Guidelines section 15183 provides that projects consistent with the development density
established by existing zoning policies or community plan for which an EIR was certified shall not
require additional environmental review, except as might be necessary to examine whether there
are project‐ specific significant effects that are peculiar to the project or its site. In such cases, the
City must limit its examination of environmental effects to those that the agency determines, in an
initial study or other analysis:
(1) Are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located,
(2) Were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the zoning
action, general plan or community plan with which the project is consistent,
(3) Are potentially significant off‐site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not
discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the general plan, community plan or zoning action, or
(4) Are previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new
information which was not known at the time the EIR was certified, are determined to have
a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the prior EIR.
Notably, If an impact is not peculiar to the parcel or to the project, has been addressed as a
significant effect in the prior EIR, or can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly
applied development policies or standards, then an EIR is not required.
This Environmental Checklist demonstrates that none of the conditions described in CEQA
Guidelines sections 15162 or 15168 have occurred because as proposed, the project would not
result in new or substantially more severe significant environmental effects than what was analyzed
in the 2011 EIR; therefore, no further environmental review is required. This Environmental
Checklist also demonstrates that the proposed project qualifies for streamlining under CEQA
94

Guidelines section 15183 as there are no project‐specific significant effects which are peculiar to the
project or its site.

IV. Project Description
Project Site and Vicinity
The approximately 85‐acre OPSP site is located about 3/4 of a mile east of U.S. 101, at the eastern
end (Bay side) of Oyster Point and Marina Boulevards. The OPSP is part of the City of South San
Francisco’s “East of 101” planning area, the traditional and continued core of South San Francisco’s
industrial and technological businesses. The East of 101 area consists of roughly 1,700 acres of land
bound by San Francisco Bay on the east side, U.S. 101 and railway lines on the west, the City of
Brisbane and San Francisco Bay on the north, and San Francisco International Airport on the south.
The area has a mix of land uses, including industry, warehousing, retail, offices, hotels, marinas, and
bioscience research and development facilities. The area is also currently separated from most of
South San Francisco’s residential uses by U.S. 101 (the closest of which are about 3,500 feet to the
west) though some live‐aboard boats are permitted at the two marinas located on Oyster Point and
Oyster Cove marinas in the OPSP area.
The currently proposed project consists of one 4.7‐acre parcel on the eastern peninsula of the 85‐
acre OPSP area, including the area identified in the OSPS as the Future Hotel Site (APN 015‐011‐
350). The project site is flanked by the existing marina to the north and the San Francisco Bay to the
south. The Bay Trail extends along the eastern and southern edges of the site. Existing commercial
buildings and parking lots with access to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal are located to the
east. While currently vacant following recent landfill debris relocation and recapping/covering, a
dedicated public open space is planned to the west between the project site and the Phase 1
office/R&D development under construction during preparation of this document. The location of
the current project is shown in Figure 1.
The project site is currently vacant and maintained as an active construction site after relocation of
some landfill material and the regrading of the remaining refuse and landfill cap and cover. While
there had been existing buildings partially located at this site that were mentioned in the 2011 EIR,
these were previously removed as part of the prior activities at the site.
Proposed Project
Figures follow the descriptive text showing the project site plan (Figure 2), site programming (Figure
3), grading and drainage (Figure 4), floor plans (Figures 5 through 10), and elevations (Figures 11
through 14).
The OPSP originally envisioned demolition of the existing building and construction of one or two
hotels with a total of no more than 350 rooms plus up to 40,000 square feet of restaurant/retail
uses.
In that same general area, the current project proposes preparation of the site for development by
adding approximately 9 feet of fill on top of the landfill cap followed by the construction of one 350
room hotel. In addition to hotel rooms and related circulation and support, this square footage
includes about 12,000 square feet of restaurant space plus other amenities common for a hotel use
including an entry lobby with lounge, meeting rooms, fitness facilities, roof top bar, and the
associated back of house facilities to service the amenities.
96
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 7
The exterior space includes parking and circulation elements, landscaping, and outdoor terraces and
event spaces.
The above proposal totals approximately 261,000 square feet. An additional 14,200 square feet of
building space is proposed as a future expansion phase to include an event ballroom and additional
meeting space for a total square footage of 275,200.
Consistent with existing hotels in the vicinity, the project would be anticipated to primarily serve
nearby business and the San Francisco International Airport.
Building Height and Massing
The proposed project would be 12 stories tall, reaching a height of 119 feet above grade, with
allowable rooftop equipment and projections reaching a height of approximately 146 feet above
grade (165 feet above sea level).
The proposed building footprint is 43,043 square feet, which would be expanded to 56,631 with the
proposed future ballroom expansion, equating to about 28% of the site.
Access and Circulation
Vehicular Access: The project proposes three vehicular driveways along Marina Boulevard and a
fourth connection that would act as a fire and service lane.
Bicycle & Pedestrian Circulation: Pedestrian links are proposed between the hotel and Marina
Boulevard and the Bay Trail, which is located adjacent to the east of the project site.
Transit Facilities & Network Configuration: Except for the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal, the
project site is not within walking distance of regional transit service, such as Caltrain and BART.
Access to these services are provided by feeder shuttles operated by Commute.org. Currently, three
commute.org shuttle routes provide service along and to the northern end of Oyster Point
Boulevard and connect the project site with the South San Francisco BART and Caltrain stations and
the South San Francisco Ferry terminal. During the weekday AM and PM peak period, each shuttle
route operates on approximately 30‐minute headways in the peak direction and are timed to
connect with arriving or departing ferries and Caltrain service. Service is limited to weekday
commute periods and directions.
Parking: Approximately 232 vehicle parking spaces would be provided, including 29 tandem spaces
and 33 valet spaces. Parking for 35 bikes is proposed, including 10 for employees and 25 public
spaces. A screened loading dock and yard with space allocated for two dedicated service trucks
would be provided adjacent to the back of house facilities with access through the central parking
lot.

V. Summary of CEQA Findings
Given the substantial evidence included in this document and attachments and the 2011 EIR for the
OPSP, the current project would not require subsequent analysis to the 2011 EIR per CEQA Guidelines
Section 15162, as confirmed by the following statements:
(1) The current project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(2) There are no changes in circumstances that would result in the involvement of new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects; or
(3) There is no new information resulting in a new significant effect or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects, or a change in the feasibility (or acceptance) of
mitigation measures.
While specific details of the hotel development within the OPSP area have now been proposed, this
assessment has determined that no further documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section
15162. The 2011 EIR for the OPSP continues to serve as the applicable environmental review document
pursuant to the requirements of CEQA for approval of the current project.
112
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 23
VI. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
This Environmental Checklist compares potential environmental impacts of the project to the findings of
the 2011 EIR, notes whether the project would result in new significant impacts or impacts substantially
greater or more severe than those previously identified in the 2011 EIR, and includes an explanation
substantiating the findings for each topic. It uses the abbreviation SU for significant and unavoidable,
LTS for less‐than‐significant, LTS w/ MMs for impacts that are reduced to LTS with implementation of
identified mitigation measures (MMs), and NI for when No Impact was identified in the 2011 EIR.
The checklist also lists applicable mitigation measures from the 2011 EIR. A full list of the MMs
applicable to the current project can be found in Attachment A, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program (MMRP). More detail regarding the significance criteria used in this document and the
environmental impacts of implementation of the OPSP is available in the OPSP Draft and Final EIR
available from the City of South San Francisco Economic & Community Development Department at 315
Maple Avenue in South San Francisco, and on the City of South San Francisco website at:
http://weblink.ssf.net under Planning Division/Environmental Reports/Oyster Point Specific Plan.
When a dash (‐‐) appears in the checklist below, it means that the OPSP EIR did not identify any MMs
related to that environmental impact. N/A appears when an MM was identified but it does not apply to
the current project (e.g., the project characteristics do not meet the criteria specified in the MM).
As discussed below, the proposed project was designed to be in general compliance with the
development, design, and performance standards of the OPSP, and the project is therefore consistent
with the 2011 EIR. There is no evidence of substantial changes to the circumstances under which
impacts were analyzed in the 2011 EIR, and no evidence of new information of substantial importance,
which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the
time the 2011 EIR was certified, that would show a new or more severe significant impact resulting from
the project relative to the analysis included in the 2011 EIR.

Discussion
Aesthetic Changes from the 2011 EIR
Consistent with the OPSP, the existing building previously located on the project site has already been
demolished as part of prior activities at the site.
Visual models and renderings of the proposed development can be seen in Figures 3 through 5. The full
description of the proposed changes can be found in Section IV: Project Description and was used to
assess aesthetic impacts. The proposed changes can be summarized as follows:
The 2011 EIR did not have any details about a proposed hotel design, other than the OPSP allowing for 1
or 2 hotels with a maximum of 350 rooms. The 2011 EIR included a possible hotel project in the visual
modeling, which included a lower height (75 feet compared to the proposed height of 119 feet) and a
larger footprint than currently proposed. This visual modeling was conducted for demonstrative
purposes prior to details being available and was not intended to represent constraints on the actual
development. The 2011 EIR noted that actual heights would be restricted only to those allowable under
Federal Aviation Regulations Part 77, which this project would be required to be in compliance with.
Scenic Vistas
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Vis‐1 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as there are no scenic vista viewpoints in the area and therefore the
potential to impact views is generally the same as under the 2011 EIR despite revisions to the height of
the building.
While both the San Francisco Bay and San Bruno Mountains are visible from portions of the site and
surrounding area, there are no designated public viewpoints for scenic vistas. The topography of the
area and existing development already fully or partially blocks views from U.S. 101 and surrounding
development. The conclusion of less‐than‐significant in regard to scenic vistas would remain the same
even with the taller building proposed with the current project.
114
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 25
Scenic Resources
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion related to scenic highways, as the lack of scenic designation of the nearby highways is the
same as under the 2011 EIR.
Visual Character
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no adverse impact
conclusion as commercial development consistent with applicable design criteria is not considered a
degradation of character or quality of the environment.
The visual character of the East of 101 area consists of a mixture of older and newer office, industrial,
and hotel buildings, with differing amounts of associated landscaping. Development of the current
project would involve new construction of a modern building with a high‐quality design including private
and public landscaping and pedestrian improvements. While the height would substantially increase
over the existing vacant conditions, the proposed conditions are within that allowed under the zoning
and consistent with other development in the East of 101 area. Therefore, consistent with conclusions
of the 2011 EIR, while the site would look different following construction, the construction of a modern
building meeting or exceeding the City’s design criteria would not result in any new or substantially
more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Light and Glare
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impact Vis‐2,
mitigation measures Vis‐2a and Vis‐2b, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion as the
proposed lighting levels and potential for light and glare would be substantially the same as under the
2011 EIR.
While the development proposed with the current project has different specific building massing and
location than that included in the visual model for the 2011 EIR, as specified in the 2011 EIR, the project
will be required to adhere to a lighting plan (mitigation measure Vis‐2a) and incorporate exterior
surfaces intended to reduce glare (mitigation measure Vis‐2b). The potential for light and glare impacts
would remain substantially the same as under the 2011 EIR, and therefore the project would not result
in any new or substantially more severe impacts related to light and glare than previously analyzed in
the 2011 EIR.

Air Quality Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Since the 2011 EIR, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) has updated its CEQA Air
Quality Guidelines (BAAQMD Guidelines), which assist lead agencies in evaluating and mitigating air
quality impacts. The 2011 EIR was being prepared as the 1999 BAAQMD Guidelines were being updated
for the 2010 draft and the 2011 EIR compared the OPSP to both thresholds. The latest draft of the
BAAQMD guidelines was issued in May 2017 and includes thresholds consistent with the 2010 draft
BAAQMD Guidelines assessed in the 2011 EIR. Since the 2011 EIR, the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan
updated the 2010 Clean Air Plan utilized in the 2011 EIR assessment. The latest update to the Clean Air
Plan revises the way in which projects are assessed for consistency and no longer considers the ratio of
population increase to vehicle use of a project to be a consistency factor.
Conflict with Air Quality Plan
Less Significant Conclusion (SU reduced to LTS w/ MM): There have been no changes in circumstance or
new information related to the applicable air quality plans, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation
conclusion as the potential impacts would be substantially the same as under the 2011 EIR. In addition,
the Clean Air Plan has been updated since the 2011 EIR and now includes different standards with which
to assess a project; while no further analysis is required by CEQA, consistency with the updated Clean Air
Plan is nonetheless evaluated for informational purposes below. Mitigation measure Traf‐1, requiring
implementation of TDM plans, remains applicable and unchanged from the 2011 EIR and would apply to
the project.
The significant and unavoidable impact in the 2011 EIR was based on the previous Clean Air Plan’s
requirement to consider the relative increase in population and vehicle use. This is no longer a threshold
in the current Clean Air Plan. Under the current Clean Air Plan, a project’s impact would be significant if
117
Page 28 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
the project would conflict with or obstruct attainment of the primary goals or implementation of the
control measures.
The primary goals of the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan are:
• Attain all state and national air quality standards
• Eliminate disparities among Bay Area communities in cancer health risk from toxic air
contaminants
• Reduce Bay Area GHG emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, and 80 percent
below 1990 levels by 2050. [This standard is addressed in Section G: Greenhouse Gas
Emissions.]
The current project would be consistent with all applicable rules and regulations related to emissions
and health risk and would not result in a new substantial source of emissions or toxic air contaminants
or otherwise conflict with the primary goals of the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan.
Many of the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan’s control measures are targeted to area‐wide improvements,
regional policies, or large stationary source reductions, and these are not directly applicable to the
project. However, the current project is consistent with all rules and regulations related to construction
activities and the proposed development would meet current standards of energy and water efficiency
(Energy Control Measure EN1 and Water Control Measure WR2) and recycling and green waste
requirements (Waste Management Control Measures WA3 and WA4). The required TDM plans (MM
Traf‐1) will contribute to trip reduction programs (Transportation Control Measure TR2), and improving
access/connectivity for bicycles and pedestrians (Transportation Control Measure TR9).
Therefore, the project does not conflict with applicable control measures, is generally consistent with
the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan, and would not create any new or substantially more severe impacts
than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR. The project would also be subject to mitigation measure Traf‐1
requiring TDM plans for development, which would require trip reductions that would also reduce
resultant emissions.
Criteria Air Pollutants
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impact Air‐4
and the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion related to construction‐period impacts or Impact
Air‐5 and the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion related to operational‐period impacts.
Mitigation measure Air‐4b relates to refuse relocation, which has already been completed on the project
site, and is therefore not applicable.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, short‐term degradation of air quality may occur due to the release of fugitive
dust, criteria pollutants, and diesel exhaust particulate matter generated by grading, hauling, and other
construction related activities. Construction emissions from redevelopment were quantified based on
overall areas and building square footages and were found to be below thresholds levels with
implementation of applicable controls detailed in MM Air‐4a. (MM Air‐4b relates to refuse relocation
from the Phase 1 site, which has already occurred on the project site and is not a part of the current
project.)
As noted in the 2011 EIR, development of the OPSP would generate operational emissions from vehicle
emissions and building/site operation and maintenance. Operational emissions were quantified and
118
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 29
found to be below applicable threshold levels. While not discussed in the 2011 EIR, MM Traf‐1 would
further reduce this less‐than‐significant impact by reducing vehicle trips and related emissions. For these
reasons, the project would not result in any new or substantially more severe impacts than previously
analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Sensitive Receptors
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impact Air‐4
and the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion related to construction‐period health risk. As has
become standard practice for construction projects with nearby receptors, mitigation measure Air‐4c
would be added to further reduce construction‐period health risk. The current project would not
introduce new sensitive receptors such as a daycare facility, which would negate the need for mitigation
measure Air‐2.
Regarding Impact Air‐2 and operational‐period emissions, the 2011 EIR concluded that while the
increased traffic and generators would contribute to area health risks, the contribution would be less‐
than‐significant. The 2011 EIR also concluded that any proposed new sensitive uses (such as if Day Care
Facilities were proposed as uses ancillary to office/R&D developments) would need to implement Air‐2
requiring a site‐specific health risk assessment and implementation of any necessary measures to
reduce toxic air contaminant exposures. A hotel use is not considered to be a sensitive receptor, so
mitigation measure Air‐2 would not be applicable to the current project.
Regarding construction‐period health risk, the 2011 EIR concluded that with implementation of
applicable construction‐period emissions controls identified in MM Air‐4a (and MM Air‐4b which applied
only to refuse relocation activities on the Phase 1 site that are not applicable to the current project), the
impact of the project would be less‐than‐significant. The project would comply with MM Air‐4a and
would therefore not create any new or substantially more severe impacts related to construction
emission impacts on sensitive receptors. In addition, as a best practice, the applicant is committing to
further reduce construction emissions by utilizing construction equipment with engines that meet or
exceed either U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) or California Air Resources Board (ARB)
Tier 4 Final off‐road emission standards. This voluntary improvement measure will be memorialized as a
condition of approval.
Improvement Measure: Construction Equipment Standards and Construction Emissions Minimization
Plan. All off‐road construction equipment greater than 25 horsepower shall have engines that meet or
exceed either U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) or California Air Resources Board (ARB)
Tier 4 Final off‐road emission standards. If a particular piece of off‐road equipment that meets these
standards is technically not feasible; the equipment would not produce desired emissions reduction due
to expected operating modes; installation of the equipment would create a safety hazard or impaired
visibility for the operator; or, there is a compelling emergency need to use off‐road equipment that does
not meet these standards, the Contractor shall use the next cleanest piece of off‐road equipment (i.e.,
Tier 3 Engine with Level 3 Verified Diesel Emission Control Strategy (VDECS), Tier 3 Engine with Level 2
VDECS, Tier 3 Engine with alternative fuel), and the Contactor shall develop a Construction Emissions
Minimization Plan (CEMP) to describe the process used to identify the next cleanest piece of off‐road
equipment and the steps that will be taken to reduce emissions of criteria air pollutants to the greatest
extent practicable. The CEMP shall be submitted the City’s Planning Department for review and approval
prior to using the equipment.
119
Page 30 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
Odors
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Air‐3 and the
less‐than‐significant conclusion related to odors.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, hotel uses are not the types of uses that generate frequent or substantial
odors and the impact related to odors would be less than significant. Odors from construction activities
would be transient and temporary in nature and also less‐than‐significant; therefore, the project would
not result in any new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Biological Resources Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
The 2011 EIR identified the following categories of biotic habitat/land use on the current project site:
Developed/Landscaped: Comprised of hardscaped roads, buildings, parking lot surfaces, paved trail
surfaces, ornamental, and landscaped areas (typically irrigated with a mulch base), and irrigated
turf, developed/landscaped area provide low or very low suitability for special status species or
habitat. This land use occurs over the totality of the current project area.
California Annual Grassland/Coyote Brush Scrub: Approximately 18.90 ac of the OPSP area are
dominated by California annual grassland/coyote brush scrub. These areas vary in composition
based on water availability and soil characteristics. Non‐native annual grass species are dominant
throughout the annual grassland. Native purple needlegrass, (Nassella pulchra) is becoming
established south of Marina Boulevard near the road along with herbaceous species such as birds‐
foot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus), flax (Linum sp.), and blue eyed grass (Sisyrinchium bellum).
However, this patch of native grass is too small to be distinguished as a separate habitat type. Some
shrubs such as coyote brush (Baccharis pilularis), toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia), and big saltbush
(Atriplex lentiformis) have become established along the slopes above the estuarine canal south of
Marina Boulevard.
121
Page 32 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
The grassland and scrubby habitats within the Project boundaries host a variety of common
invertebrates, which in turn provide food for widespread reptiles and for a number of bird and
mammal species. A western meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta) and a Say’s phoebe (Sayornis saya)
were observed foraging at the southwestern corner of the OPSP area. Although other grassland‐
associated species occur in the Project vicinity and may forage in the OPSP area on occasion, this
patch of grassland is likely too small to support nesting pairs of these species. Small mammals and
mesocarnivores including house mice, striped skunks, and raccoons may forage in these habitats,
and several valley pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae) burrows were observed in the grassland in the
southwestern corner of the OPSP area.
Since the 2011 EIR, the project site has undergone identified Phase 1 activities including landfill refuse
relocation and recapping and regrading across the entire project site. The site would currently be
considered an active construction site that was recently fully disturbed and that does not therefore have
the potential to contain significant biological resources.
Special‐Status Species
Same Conclusion or Less than Significant Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM for some species
and LTS for others or is reduced from LTS w/ MM to LTS): The current project would not change Impact
Bio‐6, mitigation measure Bio‐6, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion related to nesting
birds. The current project would also not change Impacts Bio‐8 and Bio‐9 and the significance
conclusions of less‐than‐significant in relation to indirect impacts on special‐status species through
recreational disturbance and increased lighting. These impacts and conclusions remain substantially the
same as under the 2011 EIR, as the current project would disturb the same area, involve substantially the
same intensity of development, and would not therefore result in any new or substantially more severe
impacts. Impact Bio‐7 and mitigation measures Bio‐7a, Bio‐7b, and Bio‐7c relate to burrowing owl, which
would not be likely to be present on the project site due to its status as a currently active construction
site and landfill cap and cover and therefore would now be reduced to a less‐than‐significant conclusion
rather than requiring mitigation.
Consistent with conclusions in the 2011 EIR, some special‐status bird species could potentially nest in or
adjacent to the project area but are not expected to be significantly impacted by the OPSP. These
species include the white‐tailed kite and loggerhead shrike, for which there is a very low probability of
nesting, as well as the San Francisco common yellowthroat, Alameda song sparrow, and Bryant’s
savannah sparrow, which have a somewhat higher probability of nesting in wetland vegetation at the
nearby bay margins. The loss of any active nests due to construction noise and activity of protected
birds would be in violation of federal and state laws so would require pre‐construction surveys and
buffers if necessary (Bio‐6), which has not substantially changed since the 2011 EIR.
The project could increase area light levels and recreational usage of the area, which could disturb
sensitive species. However, consistent with conclusions of the 2011 EIR, substantial urban lighting levels
and human activity already occurs in the area and the potential impact of increased recreational activity
and increased light levels consistent with City requirements would be less‐than‐significant.
Burrowing owls occur at scattered locations throughout the South San Francisco Bay Area where low
grasslands and ruderal habitats support ground squirrel colonies. There is no grassland habitat on the
current project site, which is an active construction site and landfill cap and cover. Therefore, there
would not be the potential for a significant impact to burrowing owls due to development of the project
site and mitigation measures Bio‐7a through Bio‐7c would not be applicable to the current project.
122
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 33
For these reasons, the project would not result in any new or substantially more severe impacts than
previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Riparian/Sensitive Habitat
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Bio‐1 or Bio‐5
or the less‐than‐significant conclusion as the loss of common terrestrial habitats and habitat for non‐
breeding special‐status wildlife species remains substantially the same as under the 2011 EIR.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, the OPSP site does not contain riparian habitat. Wetland/aquatic and related
habitat is discussed under the Wetland and Aquatic Habitat topic below.
Development of the project site involves already disturbed areas which would not represent a biological
impact. This project site is an active construction site that has been recently and fully disturbed by
landfill refuse relocation and recapping and therefore does not represent a sensitive, valuable (from the
perspective of providing important wildlife habitat), or exemplary habitat type, and so the loss of
potential nesting, roosting, and foraging opportunities at the site is considered a less‐than‐significant
impact consistent with the analysis in the 2011 EIR. The project would not therefore create new or
substantially more severe impacts on riparian or sensitive habitat than previously the analyzed in the
2011 EIR.
Wetlands or Aquatic Habitats
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts Bio‐3
and Bio‐4, mitigation measures Bio‐3a and ‐3b and ‐4, and the significance conclusions of less‐than‐
significant with mitigation as the potential for indirect impact of nearby wetland and aquatic habitat
remains substantially the same as under the 2011 EIR. Impact Bio‐2 and mitigation measures Bio‐2a
through Bio‐2d would not apply to this project as there are no shoreline improvements involved. Impacts
Bio‐12, Bio‐13, Bio‐14, Bio‐15 and associated mitigation measures Bio‐12, Bio‐13a and b, Bio‐14a
through c, and Bio‐15a through c are related to in‐water construction are not applicable to the current
project because no in‐water construction is proposed.
Development occurring throughout the site will be in close proximity to, and upslope from, sensitive
aquatic habitats. There is thus some potential for operational and construction‐related runoff to have
indirect effects on these habitats and on water quality in adjacent aquatic habitats. Mitigation measures
to reduce these potential impacts to less‐than‐significant levels (mitigation measures Bio‐3a and ‐3b and
‐4) as previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR would apply to the proposed project. The project would not
therefore create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Wildlife Corridors/Nursery Sites
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impact Bio‐10,
mitigation measures Bio‐10a and Bio‐10b, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion as with
mitigation requiring appropriate design to minimize bird strikes, impacts and conclusions would be
substantially the same as under the 2011 EIR.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, the OPSP area is located along the Pacific Flyway for migratory birds, and the
juxtaposition of wetland, shoreline, and open water habitats used by birds results in large‐scale
movements of birds along the edge of San Francisco Bay, both during long‐distance movements (such as
migration) and during daily movements between roosting and foraging habitats.
123
Page 34 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
Within the current project site and as previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR, there is some potential for
birds to collide during daytime and nocturnal flights with structures such as windows of proposed
buildings. Although proposed buildings are likely to be at a lower height than most migrating birds will
be flying, the 2011 EIR explained that the OPSP would create potential bird strike hazards at elevations
that do not currently exist, and depending on the design of the buildings there is some potential for such
mortality to occur in the absence of mitigation measures. The project would comply with MM Bio‐10a
and Bio‐10b and would not therefore have any new or substantially more severe impacts than
previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
For informational purposes, while industry‐standards for how to reduce the potential for bird strikes
have evolved since the 2011 EIR, the examples included in the measures are not proscriptive and allow
for implementing measures to current standards.
Conflict with Local Policies or Conservation Plans
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Bio‐11 and the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as there are no conservation plans that cover the site and there are no
protected trees in the current project site, which is unchanged from the 2011 EIR.

Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
There have been no changes to the cultural and tribal cultural resources environmental setting of the
project site.
Since the 2011 EIR, the Native American Historic Resource Protection Act (Assembly Bill 52) was passed,
which is intended to minimize conflict between Native American and development interests. AB 52 adds
"tribal cultural resources" to the specific cultural resources analyzed under CEQA. As had been standard
practice at the time, the 2011 EIR considered tribal cultural resources as part of the cultural resources
analysis, so they are discussed here.
As the current project is being built over capped landfill debris and does not have the potential to
disturb native soil, no additional record searches or tribal contacts were made for this project.
Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources and Human Remains
Less Significant Conclusion (LTS w/ MM reduced to LTS): The current project would not change the less‐
than‐significant conclusion as the site is entirely over capped landfill.
As under the 2011 EIR, the project site is located over a capped landfill site. Construction activities are
not expected to disturb native soils. As noted in the 2011 EIR, there are no known historic resources in
the OPSP area and while currently unknown underground resources could be unexpectedly discovered
during ground disturbance, such discoveries are required to be handled appropriately according to
Section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code dealing with the treatment and handling of underground
cultural/tribal cultural resources, Section 21084.1 dealing with the treatment of handling of historical
resources, and Section 7050.5 of the Health and Safety Code/ Section 5097.98 of the Public Resources
Code dealing with discovery of human remains. With adherence to applicable regulations and the low
chance of disturbing native soils on the project site, impacts related to accidental discovery of
cultural/tribal cultural resources would be less than significant. The project would therefore not create
new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Geology and Soils Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. prepared an updated Geotechnical Investigation,
dated October 19, 2017, which is available as part of the project application on file with the City of South
San Francisco Economic & Community Development Department. Refuse materials from the nearby
Phase 1 office site were removed as a part of that development and relocated to the project site and
surroundings. Refuse that could be reused was utilized as the foundation layer, as well as the former cap
material that was removed in the excavation. Additional fill was imported from off‐site for the clay cap
and erosion protection layers. The current project would be required to meet current rules and
regulation, including the updated California Building Code. These regular updates to regulatory
documents would not change the conclusions of the 2011 EIR.
Seismic Hazards
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts Geo‐2
through Geo‐4, mitigation measures Geo‐2a through Geo‐4, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation
conclusion as the known seismically active character of the region and potential for seismically induced
ground failure has not changed since the 2011 EIR. The current project would also not change Impact
Geo‐1 or the less‐than‐significant conclusion related to fault hazards as there are no known faults at the
site, and this has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
Consistent with conclusions in the 2011 EIR, while there are no known faults at the project site, the
region is known to be seismically active and the project will need to comply with the California Building
Code and project‐specific geotechnical recommendations and building permit requirements as detailed
in the mitigation measures (Geo‐2a through Geo‐4). The project would therefore not create new or
substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Soil Erosion
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impact Geo‐
14, mitigation measure Geo‐14, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion as the potential
for soil erosion and requirement to include best management practices to reduce soil erosion potential
have not changed since the 2011 EIR.
While the site has been graded and the previous structures have been demolished, there will still be soil
movement for landscaping, paving, and other construction activities requiring mitigation, which is
addressed by mitigation measures Geo‐14. The project would therefore not create new or substantially
more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Unstable and Expansive Soils
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts Geo‐5
and Geo‐6, mitigation measures Geo‐5a through Geo‐6, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation
conclusion as the need to account for variable subsurface conditions and potential for settling have not
changed since the 2011 EIR. The current project would also not change the no impact conclusion related
to landslides as the lack of potential for landslides at the site has not changed since the 2011 EIR. 2011
EIR impacts Geo‐7 through Geo‐13 and associated mitigation measures Geo‐7 through Geo‐13 are
related to construction in landfill areas and are applicable to the current project site as well. 2011 EIR
impact Geo‐16 and associated mitigation measure are related to Crescent Park and Beach, which is
located outside the current project area and is therefore not applicable to the current project.
127
Page 38 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
As noted in the 2011 EIR, soil layers at the project site include regraded refuse and a landfill cap over
varying thicknesses of Bay Mud and sloping bedrock surface, which could result in settlement following
building construction. These variable subsurface conditions will influence the design, performance, and
constructability of foundation systems for the proposed buildings and are mitigated through appropriate
foundation design as detailed in the mitigation measures.
The geotechnical reports conclude that the project site would undergo significant settlement caused by
the decomposition of the refuse, and consolidation and compression of the refuse and Bay Mud from
the weight of refuse, existing cover soil, new fill, and/or structural loads associated with the proposed
development. These processes could result in significant total and differential settlements of the ground
surface and the site improvements. To reduce the potential for settlement of the structure, the
proposed hotel would be supported on deep foundations gaining support in the dense to very dense
sand layer or bedrock beneath the weak refuse and Bay Mud layers. Due to the thickness and depth of
the Bay Mud, extending in some areas as much as 120 feet below ground surface, driven steel piles are
recommended by the geotechnical investigation, with careful implementation to address the potential
for disturbance of the landfill cover and preserve the integrity of the landfill components.
The impact related to the wave susceptibility of the proposed Crescent Park and Beach is not applicable
to the current project because this area is not within the current project site.
Expansive Soils
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Geo‐15 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion related to expansive soils as soil conditions are the same and the low
potential for expansive soils has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
Septic Tanks
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion related to septic systems as the project area is serviced by the City’s sewer system, which has
not changed since the 2011 EIR.
Geologic Features
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion related to unique geologic features as the lack of unique geologic features at the site has not
changed since the 2011 EIR.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
As discussed above in connection with air quality impacts, since the 2011 EIR was certified, BAAQMD has
updated its CEQA Air Quality Guidelines (BAAQMD Guidelines), which assist lead agencies in evaluating
and mitigating emissions impacts. The 2011 EIR was being prepared as the 1999 BAAQMD Guidelines
were being updated for the 2010 draft. The 2011 EIR compared the OPSP to those in the 2010 draft. The
latest draft of the BAAQMD Guidelines was issued in May 2017 and includes thresholds consistent with
the 2010 draft BAAQMD Guidelines assessed in the 2011 EIR.
Since the 2011 EIR, the City adopted a qualified GHG reduction plan in 2014, the City of South San
Francisco Climate Action Plan, which includes various reduction measures to meet 2020 reduction goals.
In 2016, SB 32 was passed, which codifies additional target GHG emissions reductions by 2030. In April
2022, BAAQMD issued a new GHG threshold, revising the threshold from the quantifiable level used in
the 2011 EIR to a checklist of compliance, requiring consistency with either criterion A or B as follows:
A. Projects must include, at a minimum, the following project design elements:
1. Buildings
a. The project will not include natural gas appliances or natural gas plumbing (in both residential
and nonresidential development).
b. The project will not result in any wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary electrical usage as
determined by the analysis required under CEQA Section 21100(b)(3) and Section 15126.2(b)
of the State CEQA Guidelines.
2. Transportation
a. Achieve compliance with electric vehicle requirements in the most recently adopted version of
CALGreen Tier 2.
b. Achieve a reduction in project‐generated vehicle miles traveled (VMT) below the regional
average consistent with the current version of the California Climate Change Scoping Plan
(currently 15 percent) or meet a locally adopted Senate Bill 743 VMT target, reflecting the
recommendations provided in the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research’s Technical
Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA:
i. Residential projects: 15 percent below the existing VMT per capita
129
Page 40 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
ii. Office projects: 15 percent below the existing VMT per employee
iii. Retail projects: no net increase in existing VMT
B. Be consistent with a local GHG reduction strategy that meets the criteria under State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15183.5(b).
Since the 2011 EIR, the Bay Area 2017 Clean Air Plan updated the 2010 Clean Air Plan that was utilized in
the 2011 EIR assessment. The latest update to the Clean Air Plan revises the way in which projects are
assessed for consistency and no longer considers the ratio of population increase to vehicle use of a
project to be a consistency factor.
The purpose of this document, however, is to determine whether the project is within the scope of the
2011 EIR. Accordingly, this document does not address and is not required to address whether the
project is consistent with regulatory changes that occurred after certification of the 2011 EIR.
GHG Emissions
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains SU): The current project would not change Impact GHG‐1
(combined with Impact GHG‐2) as the GHG emissions of the project were accounted for in the 2011 EIR
and therefore the conclusion remains significant and unavoidable.
The 2011 EIR concluded that the OPSP would have a significant and unavoidable impact related to GHG
emissions. As a hotel project within the parameters of that analyzed in the OPSP and 2011 EIR, the GHG
emissions of the project were accounted for in the prior analysis and the project would not therefore
result in new or substantially more severe impacts related to GHG emissions than previously identified
in the 2011 EIR.
In addition, the project would be required to comply with updated GHG reduction requirements
implemented since the 2011 EIR. Many of the City’s Climate Action Plan’s reduction measures are
targeted to city‐wide strategies that are not directly applicable to development projects. The project is
located near the ferry terminal and would include pedestrian/bicycle connections and walkways and
participate in a Transportation Demand Management program to promote transit and reduce trips
(contributing to Measures 1.1 through 1.3). The project would include new tree plantings (Measure 3.4)
and would meet current standards of energy and water efficiency (Measures 3.1 and 6.1), and would
participate in recycling for waste reduction (Measure 5.1). Development projects in the city, including
those in the current project, are required to complete a GHG Compliance Checklist during the plan
review process demonstrating that all applicable requirements are met. The current project will comply
with the Climate Action Plan.
Further, BAAQMD updated its guidelines since the 2011 EIR. Although this Environmental Checklist is
limited to an analysis of the project’s consistency with the 2011 EIR pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section
15168, the project was reviewed against BAAQMD’s updated thresholds and would not result in
wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary electrical usage (see Section P: Utilities and Service Systems and
Energy), would comply with required electric vehicle requirements and VMT targets (see Section O:
Transportation), and would implement applicable measures from the City’s Climate Action Plan. At the
time of preparation of this analysis, the City does not preclude natural gas appliances and plumbing in
hotel projects.
130
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 41
Consistency with GHG Reduction Plans
Same Conclusion (Conclusions remains NI): The Clean Air Plan has been updated and the South San
Francisco Climate Action Plan has been adopted since the 2011 EIR but the current project remains
consistent with relevant plans and the no additional impact conclusion remains unchanged from the
2011 EIR.
For informational purposes, the project’s consistency with the City’s Climate Action Plan is discussed
above and the current project would be consistent with that plan. The current project does not conflict
with applicable control measures, is generally consistent with the Clean Air Plan as well as the City’s
Climate Action Plan. The project would therefore not create new or substantially more severe impacts
than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Discussion
Hazards and Hazardous Materials Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. prepared a Final Closure Plan (FCP) and Post‐
Closure Monitoring and Maintenance Plan (PCMMP) for the Phase I and II Development of the OSPS
area, which is available as part of the project application on file with the City of South San Francisco
Economic & Community Development Department. The FCP provides a basis for preparing design and
construction documents for landfill mitigation and monitoring components, such as the final landfill
cover and landfill gas control and monitoring systems. The PCMMP provides a detailed plan for post‐
closure monitoring and maintenance activities during the various stages of development, as well as
establishing the responsible parties for each required activity. As discussed in Section F: Geology and
Soils, Langan excavated the original cap and some of the landfill refuse and regraded the site, re‐using
some of the refuse and transporting the rest off‐site. Replacement fill was imported from off‐site, and a
new clay cap was put in place.
132
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 43
Lists of hazardous materials sites are regularly updated and have been updated since the 2011 EIR,
including the following two additional sites in the general vicinity of the project: Seaboard Paper
Company – 336 Oyster Point Boulevard, and Wildberg Brothers – 349 Oyster Point Boulevard. However,
while nearby sites have been identified as having prior releases of hazardous materials, there is no
reported evidence of active leaks or contamination from these sites affecting soil or groundwater that
could migrate to the project site or represent significant releases in the project area requiring any
additional actions related to the proposed project, so these are not further discussed.
The airport land use plan for the nearby airport has been updated since the 2011 EIR. The City/County
Association of Governments of San Mateo County, Comprehensive Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan
for the Environs of San Francisco International Airport was published in November 2012 including
updated regulations regarding allowable building heights in the project area.
For informational purposes, since the 2011 EIR, the CEQA Guidelines have been updated to include
more detailed threshold questions related to wildfire impacts in its own section. The purpose of this
document, however, is to determine whether the project is within the scope of the 2011 EIR. As had
been standard practice at the time, the 2011 EIR considered wildfire risk as part of the hazards and
hazards materials section, so this topic is discussed here. The expanded wildfire considerations apply to
projects in areas that are very high fire severity zones, which does not apply to the project, so are not
further detailed.
Routine Hazardous Materials Use
Less Significant Conclusion (LTS w/ MM reduced to LTS): Impact Haz‐1 and related mitigation measures
Haz‐1a through Haz‐1e pertain to the use of hazardous materials by research laboratory uses in the
office/R&D portions of the OSPS, and are not applicable to this hotel project.
Operation of the hotel would use common hazardous materials such as cleaning products. State and
federal laws require businesses that handle hazardous materials to ensure that the hazardous materials
are properly handled, used, stored, and disposed of; and in the event that hazardous materials are
accidentally released, to prevent or reduce injury to health and the environment. The South San
Francisco Fire Prevention division enforces certain fire code regulations pertaining to safe handling and
proper storage of hazardous materials. Occupational safety standards exist in federal and state laws to
minimize worker safety risks from both physical and chemical hazards in the workplace. The California
Division of Occupational Safety and Health Administration is responsible for developing and enforcing
workplace safety standards and ensuring worker safety in the handling and use of hazardous materials.
As a hotel use, project operations are not anticipated to create a significant hazard to the public or
environment through the routine transport, use or disposal of hazardous materials.
This section pertains to recurring transportation, use or disposal of hazardous materials as part of long‐
term operation. One time transportation, use or disposal of hazardous materials related to construction
and development is discussed in the following sections. The project would therefore not create new or
substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Risk of Upset
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts Haz‐2
and ‐4, mitigation measures Haz‐2, Haz‐4b, Haz‐4c, and Haz‐4e, or the less‐than‐significant with
mitigation conclusion as the potential for accidental future hazardous materials release of pre‐existing
site materials remains unchanged since the 2011 EIR, with the project site being on top of the former
133
Page 44 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
landfill. Mitigation measure Haz‐4a has already been met with the clay cap upgrade performed by
Langan (see Section F: Geology and Soils) and Haz‐4d is not applicable as none of the groundwater
monitoring wells are on the project site property. 2011 EIR impact Haz‐3 and associated mitigation
measures are related to demolition of existing structures and are not applicable to the current project
because demolition of the existing building has already been completed on the project site. Impact Haz‐5
and related mitigation measures relate to the potential for accidental release of laboratory chemicals by
research laboratory uses in the office/R&D portions of the OSPS, and are not applicable to this hotel
project.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, due to the former use of the project site as a municipal landfill, there is a
potential for development on the site to lead to an increased rate of on‐site waste settlement and off‐
site migration of contaminants in groundwater. Due to the presence of methane in the soil, building on
the project site present the potential for buildup of soil gases in the building; however, the project
would comply with Haz‐2, Haz‐4b, Haz‐4c, and Haz‐4e and would not therefore have any new or
substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Hazardous Materials Near Schools
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion related to hazardous materials near schools as the lack of schools in the vicinity has not
changed since the 2011 EIR.
The OPSP area is not located within one‐quarter mile of a school site. The project would therefore not
create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Hazardous Materials Site
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): Impact Haz‐6 and mitigation measures Haz‐6a
through Haz‐6c related to construction on a landfill cap would be applicable to the current project.
Although waste relocation, demolition, and most of the excavation have already been completed on the
site, landscaping and utility placement and maintenance still carry potential impacts due to the site’s
hazardous materials status. Mitigation measure Haz‐6d would not be applicable to this project as there
are no current businesses on the project site.
As mentioned above, Langan has drafted a PCMMP, implementation of which is anticipated to fulfill
mitigation measures Haz‐6a through Haqz‐6c. The PCMMP details measures necessary to mitigate the
potential impacts of landfill gas and that can build up under the soil and potentially leak into the
groundwater. The hotel would be required to include an alarm system that monitors the level of
methane in the building and in the event that methane levels reached a concentration activating the
alarm, the mitigation system would automatically implement active mitigation activities to reduce the
level of methane to acceptable levels. Monitoring activities will be required to ensure the integrity of
the cap and check for groundwater contamination.
Airport Hazards
Same Conclusion(conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change the less‐than‐
significant conclusion, as the proposed heights under the current project remain within height levels
considered safe in relation to the airport.
The airport land use plan for San Francisco International Airport has been updated since the 2011 EIR.
The OPSP area, including the current project site, is mapped in an area where critical aeronautical
134
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 45
surfaces (the height limits for development) are between approximately 425 and 450 feet above mean
sea level. Structures reaching between 250 and 300 feet or more above mean sea level would be
required to incorporate element to address possible obstructions. The proposed building height of 165
feet above sea level is below these heights. As a project within the Airport Land Use Plan, the project
would be subject to applicable coordination with the Airport Land Use Commission and FAA to ensure
compliance with applicable regulations, and would not therefore create any new or substantially more
severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Emergency Access Routes
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion as the general roadway design and requirements for adequate access have not changed since
the 2011 EIR.
Wildfire
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion as the project site is in a developed area and the lack of wildfire risk in the vicinity has not
changed since the 2011 EIR.

Hydrology and Water Quality Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
The latest (April 5, 2019) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRMs) showed no portion of the project site proposed for development as subject to flood hazards.
The NPDES General Construction Permit Requirements apply to clearing, grading, and disturbances to
the ground such as excavation and has been updated since the 2011 EIR, though these changes are not
substantial as they relate to current project development. All construction and Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP) activity would be in compliance with the Construction General Permit Order.
The California Department of Water Resources presented updated sea level rise scenarios in their
California Climate Science and Data for Water Resources Management in 2015. The future sea level rise
scenarios associated with planning and permitting development in potentially susceptible areas in the
San Francisco Bay Area are:
• a sea level rise of 24 inches by 2050; and
• a sea level rise of 66 inches by 2100.
These values represent the upper end of the range of sea level rise estimates and are consistent with
preliminary state recommendations for 100‐year sea level rise. These values are meant to ensure that
projects take these potentially high estimates into account when planning infrastructure and
development projects and have changed slightly from those the 16‐ and 55‐inch assumptions used in the
2011 EIR.
Consistent with Phase 1 development plans in the OPSP and 2011 EIR, the project site has been recently
regraded and recapped such that the ground level at the footprint of the building is approximately 19
feet (228 inches) above sea level.
136
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 47
Water Quality and Water Plans
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts
Hydro‐1, Hydro‐2, and Hydro‐3 and mitigation measures Hydro‐1, Hydro‐2, and Hydro‐3, or the less‐
than‐significant with mitigation conclusion as the potential for contamination of bay water due to
stormwater pollutants and erosion or siltation remains substantially unchanged since the 2011 EIR.
Mitigation measure Haz‐4e would also reduce impact Hydro‐1. Mitigation measure Haz‐4a, also listed
under impact Hydro‐1 in the 2011 EIR, has already been completed.
Although the current project would not involve demolition or excavation of landfill materials, as
mentioned in impact Hydro‐3, construction activities at the site would still present a threat of soil
erosion from soil disturbance by subjecting unprotected bare soil areas to the erosional forces of runoff
during construction activities and the potential for increased erosion and/or parking lot pollutants to
impair water quality. These impacts would be mitigated through compliance with applicable permitting
requirements and a project‐specific stormwater pollution prevention plan as detailed in the mitigation
measures for the 2011 EIR. The project would therefore not create new or substantially more severe
impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Groundwater
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion related to groundwater depletion as the project area is nearly fully covered with impervious
area under existing conditions and is located in the former Bay margin and not used for groundwater
supply and therefore development under the current project would not result in the potential for
groundwater depletion, which has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
Alter Drainage
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion as the requirement for control of runoff and lack of potential for changes in stormwater
runoff have not substantially changed since the 2011 EIR.
The project represents redevelopment of a capped landfill. Consistent with the 2011 EIR, control of site
stormwater runoff is addressed by required regulatory compliance and compliance with requirements
would ensure no significant impacts. Siltation and erosion are discussed under water quality above and
flooding is discussed under inundation below. The project would therefore not create new or
substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Inundation
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Hydro‐4 and
Hydro‐5 or the less‐than‐significant conclusions related to inundation as the project will not place new
structures within the 100‐year flood hazard zone and the potential for flooding due to levee or dam
failure or sea level rise have not substantially changed since the 2011 EIR.
As discussed above, while FEMA has reconsidered flood hazards in the area since the 2011 EIR, the
current project will not place new structures within a 100‐year flood hazard zone and the impact
remains unchanged from the 2011 EIR.
Estimates of potential sea level rise scenarios have increased from 55 inches considered in the 2011 EIR
to 66 inches (5.5 feet) by 2100. The project site has been recently regraded and capped as a part of
Phase 1 landfill refuse relocation such that the ground level at the footprint of the building is
137
Page 48 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
approximately 19 feet (228 inches) above sea level. This is above the updated projected sea level rise of
up to 66 inches by 2100 and consistent with conclusions in the 2011 EIR. The project would therefore
not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Land Use Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
There have been no substantial changes to the land use environmental setting of the OPSP site,
including the hotel site with respect to land use. Development of the area has proceeded according to
area plans and recent development.
Since the 2011 EIR, the City’s Housing Element of the General Plan was updated in 2015 but would not
substantially change impacts or conclusions for the proposed hotel. The entire General Plan is currently
being updated again, but the updated document is not yet in effect and is not anticipated to be
substantially revised in relation to the project site and proposed development. The project would
therefore not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
The marine support services building that was previously on the project site has been demolished since
the 2011 EIR, and the project site is currently vacant.
Division of an Existing Community
Same Conclusion (NI): The current project would not change the no impact conclusion as there are no
established communities in the area to divide, which has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
Conflict with Land Uses / Land Use Plans
Same Conclusion (NI): The current project would not change the no impact conclusion as there are no
conflicts with land uses/land use plans, which has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
The current project is consistent with the development type and density established by existing zoning
and the General Plan, as previously updated for consistency with adoption of the 2011 EIR. The OPSP
specified a hotel development to a total of 350 rooms. The current project proposes a hotel with up to
350 rooms. The project is consistent with development anticipated under relevant plans and therefore
would not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Noise Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
The noise environment has not changed substantially from that assessed in the 2011 EIR and remains
primarily characterized by ambient noise, local traffic noise generated along arterial streets and U.S.
101, and aircraft over flights associated with San Francisco International Airport. The types and locations
of noise sensitive land uses in the vicinity has not substantially changed since the 2011 EIR, with the
nearest noise sensitive receptors being live‐aboard boats located in the marinas, which could be located
as close as approximately 325 feet from the edge of the project site.
Noise (Construction)
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains SU w/ MM for construction): The current project would not
change Impact Noise‐5, mitigation measure Noise‐5, and the significant and unavoidable conclusion as
the potential for loud construction activities over long periods has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, while the project would be required to comply with applicable construction
noise regulations, construction activities, including pile driving, will generate substantial levels of noise
at off‐site receivers over an extended period of time. Construction activities for the current project
would have substantially the same potential for noise under the current project as the 2011 EIR. As
noted above, as a hotel project within the parameters of that analyzed in the OPSP and 2011 EIR, the
construction noise of the project were accounted for in the prior analysis and therefore the project
would not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Noise (Operations)
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS for operation): The current project would not change Impacts
Noise‐1 through Noise‐3 or the less‐than‐significant conclusion as the potential for operational noise
impacts has not substantially changed since the 2011 EIR.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, noise levels at a hotel and retail/restaurant site would not exceed the City’s
noise level goal for exterior noise (65 dBA CNEL) as a result of transportation noise sources. Consistent
with conclusions of the 2011 EIR, while roadway traffic and related noise would increase with the
project, the ambient noise level is already characterized by traffic noise and increases from
141
Page 52 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
development of the project site would not have the potential to be substantial (would be less than 3
dBA) at noise sensitive uses.
With area development, the 2011 EIR forecast an interior noise level of 35 dBA CNEL at the hotel
assuming standard construction, which is consistent with interior noise standards for hotel uses. The
project would therefore not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed
in the 2011 EIR.
Vibration
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Noise‐4 and
the less‐than‐significant conclusion as the potential for groundborne vibration has not changed since the
2011 EIR.
As noted in the 2011 EIR, the proposed uses are not the type that will generate substantial groundborne
vibration during operations and construction activities are of the type and distance from existing
structures that there is no potential for significant vibration impacts. The project would therefore not
create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Airport Noise
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Noise‐6 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as the site is outside the area significantly impacted by aircraft noise,
which has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
While the airport land use plan for San Francisco International Airport has been updated since the 2011
EIR, the OPSP area remains well outside the airport’s noise‐affected 65 dBA CNEL noise contour. The
exterior noise environment at the OPSP area resulting from aircraft would be considered compatible
with proposed uses. The project would therefore not create new or substantially more severe impacts
than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Governments’ (ABAG) Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Updated RHNA numbers are currently
being incorporated into an updated General Plan. As an approved specific plan, OPSP development is
considered as planned development in these planning documents.
Population Growth
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Pop‐1 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as the potential for indirect population growth due to increased
employment has not changed since the 2011 EIR.
While the specifics of employment depend on the exact programming of the various spaces, a hotel of
the proposed size with a restaurant and commercial amenities would be anticipated to support
approximately 200 to 300 employees. As concluded in the 2011 EIR, the project would increase
employment and contribute to the high jobs to housing ratio in the city and contribute to indirect
population growth, but a hotel use would support nearby employment uses and would be consistent
with local and area planning and would therefore not be considered unplanned growth. The project is
consistent with the program previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR and therefore would not create new or
substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
Displacement of Housing or People
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains NI): The current project would not change the no impact
conclusion as there have been no changes in existing residents on the site since the 2011 EIR.
The only current residences in the OPSP remain live‐aboard boats in the marinas, which were found to
not be affected by development in the 2011 EIR. The project is consistent with the program previously
analyzed in the 2011 EIR and therefore would not create new or substantially more severe impacts than
previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Public Services and Recreation Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Area‐wide development has continued throughout the vicinity and public service and recreation plans
and operations are regularly assessed and updated. The SSFPD operates generally out of one main
station (as opposed to having substations), located at 33 Arroyo Drive. The closest Fire Station to the
project site is #62 at 249 Harbor Way, approximately 1.5 miles away.
Public Services and Recreation
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change the less‐than‐
significant conclusion as the potential to increase demand for services and recreation has not changed
since the 2011 EIR.
As under the 2011 EIR, the current project will be served by existing facilities (or those relocated
through separate projects), will meet emergency vehicle access standards, and will pay appropriate
development fees toward public services. The project therefore would not create new or substantially
more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.
While the current project does not include public open space, it is part of the OPSP development, which
as noted in the 2011 EIR, included more than the standard of 0.5 acres of parks per 1,000 employees,
including approximately 3 acres of park and 3.1 acres of bay front open space and would therefore
create more recreational space then demand for recreational opportunities and have a net benefit on
recreational facilities. The project would contribute in‐lieu fees toward the cost of the public parks and
includes a spa and fitness / game lawn and outdoor open space on site for use by hotel guests. The
conclusion of a less‐than‐significant impact with respect to recreation remains unchanged for the
current project.

1 State CEQA Guidelines have been revised since the 2011 EIR such that intersection and roadway specific service level
analysis will be replaced by an analysis of the amount of vehicle miles traveled per CEQA Section 15064.3.
Discussion
Traffic engineers Fehr & Peers prepared a transportation assessment as referenced in this document
and included in full as Attachment B.
Transportation Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Area‐wide development has continued throughout the vicinity as anticipated under the OPSP and other
area plans and included in the cumulative traffic analysis in the 2011 EIR. The City’s Transportation
Improvement Program (TIP) is regularly updated to include needed improvements. Reconfiguration of
the intersection of Oyster Point Boulevard and Marina Boulevard was underway during preparation of
this document per the OPSP as part of Phase 1 development but otherwise, there have not been
substantial changes to the roadway system in the vicinity of the project since the 2011 EIR.
The ferry terminal proposed as a part of OPSP development has been constructed and ferry service is in
operation.
Since the adoption of the 2011 EIR, the California Natural Resources Agency certified and adopted new
CEQA Guidelines in 2018 to implement the requirements of California Senate Bill (SB) 743. Specifically,
SB 743 and the resulting CEQA Guideline section 15064.3 changed the CEQA transportation impact
analysis significance criteria to eliminate auto delay, level of service (LOS), and similar measures of
vehicular capacity or traffic congestion as a basis for determining significant impacts under CEQA. The
changes in CEQA Guidelines to implement SB 743 present vehicle miles traveled (VMT) as an appropriate
measure of transportation impacts.
While the 2011 EIR identified level of service‐based impacts and mitigation measures, these are not
applicable to the current project under current CEQA law and are therefore not further discussed in this
analysis. The City of South San Francisco addresses level of service and capacity upgrades through
payment of the city‐wide Transportation Impact Fee and any other applicable fees and the prior impacts
and mitigation measures Traf‐6 through Traf‐36 would no longer be applicable to the project and are
145
Page 56 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
not further discussed in this document. The assessment under subsection b) instead addresses VMT‐
based analysis.
Conflicts with Circulation Plans or Policies
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change the less than
significant conclusion with mitigation measures for Impact Traf‐2b, as the site is adjacent to the Bay Trail
and would therefore require mitigation measure Traf‐2b to ensure trail continuity during construction.
Impact and mitigation measures Traf‐2 and Traf‐5 would not be relevant to this project, as they are
specific to Phase III and IV offices.
As under the 2011 EIR, the current project could result in increased use of area pedestrian and bicycle
facilities and includes enhancement and new connections to those facilities. Identified mitigation
measure Traf‐2b requires continuity of the Bay Trail during construction activities and would be
applicable to the project. The project is consistent with the program previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR
and therefore would not create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in
the 2011 EIR.
Conflict with Transportation Impact Reduction Goals
Same Conclusion (SU reduced to LTS w/ MM): While the 2011 EIR had identified impacts and mitigation
related to level of service, current laws require analysis on a VMT basis, which demonstrates the project
would have a less‐than‐significant impact with respect to transportation impacts and would be required
to implement TDM measures per City requirements (Traf‐1). Trip generation and characteristics under
the current project would be consistent with the hotel development specified under the 2011 EIR.
Traffic engineers Fehr & Peers prepared a trip generation comparison between the total OPSP
development as analyzed in the 2011 EIR and the current project, as shown in Table 1 below. Although
the 2011 EIR did not break down trip generation by land use, the project size is consistent with that
assumed in the 2011 EIR and would therefore be expected to generate a comparable number of trips as
the hotel identified in the 2011 EIR. Moreover, the trip generation would be well within the estimated
trip generation envelope of the OPSP and therefore vehicular transportation‐related impacts are
consistent with the 2011 EIR and would not be considered new impacts for the purposes of CEQA
analysis.

The City of South San Francisco provides VMT screening criteria for development projects. The criteria
are based on the type of project, characteristics, and/or location. If a project meets the City’s screening
criteria, the project is determined to result in less‐than‐significant impacts, and a detailed VMT analysis
is not required. The project would not meet the location‐based screening as nearby transit options do
not currently meet high‐quality transit standards. A hotel use is not one of the uses for which screening
criteria are specifically provided. Although the City of South San Francisco does not have a threshold of
significance for VMT associated with hotel uses specifically, consistent with the City’s screening criteria
146
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 57
for local serving land uses, the project would have a less than significant impact with respect to VMT if it
does not result in a net increase in VMT.
The project’s VMT was assessed by Fehr & Peers (Attachment B). Based on a survey of other area uses,
hotels in the vicinity primarily serve nearby office/R&D uses and the San Francisco International Airport,
as opposed to generating new tourism‐oriented or resort‐oriented travel. The average trip length
associated with a hotel in the East of 101 area was calculated to be 3.6 to 3.9 miles, compared to
average trip lengths of 12.9 miles for office/R&D and other land uses in the that area.
Assuming a similar travel pattern for the proposed project as existing hotels in the vicinity, the project
would not materially increase vehicle miles traveled and may help shorten trips for hotel guests that
would otherwise stay at hotels farther away.
Therefore, the project would not result in a net increase in VMT and would have a less‐than‐significant
impact in this regard. Compliance with the City’s TDM requirements, also required by Traf‐1, would
likely further reduce the project’s VMT.
Hazards and Emergency Access
Less Significant Conclusion (LTS w/ MM reduced to LTS): The current project would have a reduced
conclusion to Impacts and mitigation measures Traf‐2 and Traf‐3 would not apply as the site has been
designed to meet safety standards and is not near the Phase III and Phase IV garages.
The proposed project would not reroute or change any of the city streets in its vicinity that would
impact emergency vehicle access to nearby properties. The project would provide access suitable for
truck traffic, which would also include emergency vehicles. Emergency vehicles would have access to all
building entrances and facilities as well as the Bay Trail connection along the east side of the project.
The project is consistent with the program previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR and therefore would not
create new or substantially more severe impacts than previously analyzed in the 2011 EIR.

Utilities and Service Systems Setting Changes from the 2011 EIR
Area‐wide development has continued throughout the vicinity and utilities plans and service are
regularly assessed and updated, including Cal Water’s South San Francisco District Water Supply and
Facilities Master Plan, the City’s Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP), and contracts and operations
related to solid waste.
Relocation of wastewater system Pump Station No. 1 as identified in the 2011 EIR is being completed as
part of Phase 1 development activities and will be completed prior to development of the project site.
The upsizing and improvements to Pump Station No. 2 as identified in the 2011 EIR to accommodate
build‐out of the OPSP area as well as other area growth has since been included in the City’s current
Capital Improvement Plan though not constructed; this pump station does not service the project site.
California Assembly Bill (AB) 341 requires businesses that generate 4 or more cubic yards of waste per
week to recycle. AB 1826 requires all businesses to subscribe to organics recycling service. The City of
South San Francisco has implemented these requirements through programs run by the South San
Francisco Scavenger Company.
New or Expanded Facilities
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change the less‐than‐
significant conclusion related to new or expanded facilities as the need for new or expanded facilities has
not changed since the 2011 EIR.
As under the 2011 EIR, the current project will be served by existing facilities (or those relocated
through separate projects) or on‐site and in‐roadway utility improvements that were included in
analysis of OPSP development, and the current project would not change the potential for impacts
related to such improvements. Consistent with assumptions in the OPSP and 2011 EIR, a new sewer
pump station is proposed on or in the vicinity of the project site. The conclusion of a less‐than‐significant
impact with respect to new or expanded utility facilities remains unchanged for the current project.
148
Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist Page 59
Water Supply
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Util‐1 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as the current project would not substantially change projected increases
in water demand.
The 2011 EIR included a Water Supply Assessment, which determined that with proposed on‐site
distribution infrastructure and compliance with applicable water conservation measures, proposed
water usage would be within available supply. As part of an approved specific plan, development of the
project site has been included in local and regional water supply planning. The project is also smaller
than the 500‐room hotel size that would have been required to prepare a project‐specific Water Supply
Assessment under Senate Bill 610.The conclusion of a less‐than‐significant impact with respect to water
supply remains unchanged for the current project.
Wastewater
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS w/ MM): The current project would not change Impacts Util‐2
and Util‐3, and mitigation measure Util‐2b, or the less‐than‐significant with mitigation conclusion as the
current project would not substantially change projected wastewater generation or planned capacity.
Mitigation measure Util‐2a would not apply as Pump Station No. 2 does not serve the project area.
As part of an approved specific plan, development of the project site has been included in area‐wide
wastewater planning and was determined in the 2011 EIR not to have a significant effect on system‐
wide wastewater capacity but would require localized improvements, including the off‐site
improvement of a larger sized subtrunk in Oyster Point. Mitigation measure Util‐2b requiring
demonstrated capacity prior to operations remains applicable to the current project to reduce potential
to less than significant. The City may determine that payment of the Sewer Impact Fee satisfies this
measure.
Solid Waste
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would not change Impact Util‐5 or the
less‐than‐significant conclusion as the site would be adequately served by existing facilities and comply
with applicable solid waste regulations.
The 2011 EIR determined that the solid waste generated by development in the OPSP area would be
within availability capacity of applicable facilities and would meet reduction standards and not
otherwise conflict with applicable regulations or goals. While specific requirements for commercial solid
waste service are regularly updated, the current project would meet all current requirements and the
impact would remain less‐than‐significant and consistent with 2011 EIR conclusions.
Energy
Same Conclusion (conclusion remains LTS): The current project would contribute to increased energy
consumption in the OPSP area but would not change Impact Util‐6 or the less‐than‐significant conclusion
as development would comply with applicable energy efficiency regulations.
The OPSP would be considered to have a significant impact related to energy use if it would violate
applicable federal, state, and local statutes and regulations relating to energy standards and/or if energy
consumption increases resulting from the OPSP would trigger the need or expanded off‐site energy
facilities.
149
Page 60 Oyster Point Hotel Project Environmental Checklist
The current project would be required by the City to comply with all standards of Title 24 of the
California Code of Regulations and the new California Green Building Standards Code (CALGREEN), as
applicable, aimed at the incorporation of energy‐conserving design and construction. PG&E
infrastructure exists in the area, and any improvements and extensions required to accommodate the
OPSP would be determined in consultation with PG&E prior to installation. As a result, although the
OPSP would incrementally increase energy consumption, it would not result in a significant impact
related to the provision of energy services. The project is consistent with the hotel development
assumed in the 2011 EIR and would therefore be within the energy usage assumed for the OPSP and by
the 2011 EIR with the less‐than‐significant energy impact identified in the 2011 EIR.

This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) fulfills Public Resources Code
Section 21081.6 which requires adoption of a mitigation monitoring program when
mitigation measures are required to avoid or reduce a proposed projects significant
environmental effects. The MMRP is only applicable if the City of South San Francisco
decides to approve the proposed Project.
The MMRP is organized to correspond to environmental issues and significant impacts
discussed in the Addendum. The table below is arranged in the following five columns:
Recommended mitigation measures,
Timing for implementation of the mitigation measures,
Party responsible for implementation,
Monitoring action,
Party or parties responsible for monitoring the implementation of the mitigation
measures, and

In order to reduce sources of light and glare created by lighting within the OPSP area, the applicant shall specify fixtures and lighting that maintains appropriate levels of light at building entries, walkways, courtyards, parking lots and private roads at night consistent with minimum levels detailed in the City’s building codes. These fixtures shall be designed to eliminate spillover, high intensity, and unshielded lighting, thereby avoiding unnecessary light pollution. Prior to issuance of building permits for each phase of construction within the OPSP, the applicant shall submit a Lighting Design Plan for review and approval by the City of South San Francisco Planning Department. The plan shall include, but not necessarily be limited to the following: ○ The Lighting Design Plan shall disclose all potential light sources with the types of lighting and their locations. ○ Typical lighting shall include low mounted, downward casting and shielded lights that do not cause spillover onto adjacent properties and the utilization of motion detection systems where applicable. ○ No flood lights shall be utilized. ○ Lighting shall be limited to the areas that would be in operation during nighttime hours. ○ Low intensity, indirect light sources shall be encouraged. ○ On‐demand lighting systems shall be encouraged. ○ Mercury, sodium vapor, and similar intense and bright lights shall not be permitted except where their need is specifically approved and their source of light is restricted. ○ Generally, light fixtures shall not be located at the periphery of Prior to construction Applicant for the development Verify requirements are included in construction contracts and are met during construction SSF Planning Division 153

These BMPs shall include numerous practices that will be outlined within the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), including, but not limited to, the following mitigation measures: 1. No equipment will be operated in live flow in any of the sloughs or channels or ditches on or adjacent to the site. 2. No debris, soil, silt, sand, bark, slash, sawdust, cement, concrete, washings, petroleum products or other organic or earthen material shall be allowed to enter into or be placed where it may be washed by rainfall or runoff into aquatic or wetland habitat. 3. Standard erosion control and slope stabilization measures will be required for work performed in any area where erosion could lead to sedimentation of a waterbody. For example, silt fencing will be installed just outside the limits of grading and construction in any areas where such activities will occur upslope from, and within 50 ft of, any wetland, aquatic, or marsh habitat. This silt fencing will be inspected and maintained regularly throughout the duration of construction. 4. Machinery will be refueled at least 50 ft from any aquatic habitat, and a spill prevention and response plan will be developed.

162
MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM PAGE 12 OYSTER POINT HOTEL PROJECT Mitigation Measure Timing/ Schedule Implementation Responsibility Verification Monitoring Action Monitoring ResponsibilityDate Completed occur under new building loads, the OPSP applicant must consider the use of deep foundations such as driven piles. Specific recommendations for suitable deep foundation alternatives and required penetrations will be provided during the course of a design‐level geotechnical investigation and will depend on factors such as the depth and hardness of the underlying clays, sands or bedrock, and the corrosivity of the waste materials and Bay Mud soils. Suitable deep foundation types may include driven precast, prestressed concrete piles or driven closed‐end steel pipe piles with the interior of the pile filled with concrete after driving. Deep foundations shall extend through all waste materials and Bay Mud and be tipped in underlying stiff to hard clays, dense sands or weathered bedrock. Where waste and Bay Mud soils underlie the site, wall and column loads as well as floor slabs shall be founded on deep foundations. Settlement of properly‐designed and constructed deep foundation elements is typically less than about one‐half inch. The majority of settlement typically occurs during construction as the loads are applied. Where landfill waste and Bay Mud are not present (possibly at extreme western and northwestern edges of the site) and competent soil or bedrock are present near the ground surface (within about 5 feet of finished grade elevation), shallow foundations such as footings or mats may be appropriate foundation types, as determined during the course of a design‐level geotechnical investigation. Where proposed structures straddle a transition zone between these conditions, a combination of shallow and deep foundations may be required. Any transition zones shall be identified during site‐specific geotechnical investigations for preliminary and final designs. Geo‐5b: Predrilling and/or Pile Configuration. Piles either shall be issuance of building permits the development requirements are included in construction contracts and are met during construction Division163

If a drill is used, it should only loosen and break up in‐place obstructions that may cause pile damage. During recent subsurface investigations reported by Treadwell & Rollo (2009b) obstructions including concrete rubble was encountered throughout the landfill area, particularly in the northern end of the site. Even with predrilling, precast concrete piles could be damaged during installation at a landfill site such as Oyster Point. For preliminary planning purposes, a precast concrete pile breakage rate during installation of 10 to 15 percent may be considered applicable. Piles usually have to include pointed tip configurations to avoid pushing landfill waste downward. These configurations are typically readily accommodated by pile driving contractors. Geo‐5c: Indicator Pile Program. Prior to specifying the lengths of the production piles, drive indicator piles at the structure sites in order to observe the driving characteristic of the piles and the ability of the driving equipment when a driven pile is used. The driving criteria and pile length of production piles shall also be estimated from the information obtained from driving of the indicator piles. The contractor shall use the same equipment to drive both the indicator and production piles. Indicator pile lengths and locations shall be selected by the Geotechnical Engineer, in conjunction with the Structural Engineer and Contractor after the foundation plan has been finalized. The indicator pile program will serve to establish information on the following: ○ Estimates of production pile lengths; 164

All grading shall be planned to avoid penetrating the landfill cap and to reduce the amount of long‐term settlement in response to new fills. Because the Bay Mud and waste across most of the site are still settling under the weight of existing fill and waste decomposition and will settle more under new fills, additional settlement should be expected, with the creation of localized low‐lying surface areas. Existing low areas shall be corrected during site grading to allow for proper drainage. Long‐term maintenance planning for the development shall also include provisions for periodic grading to correct drainage problems and improve site grades, as outlined in the Disposition and Development Agreement. The Geotechnical Engineer will recommend other site‐specific recommendations based on the results of the design‐level Geotechnical Investigation to mitigate on‐going settlement and any additional settlement to be expected in response to new development. Geo‐8b: Design Building‐Soil Interface to Allow Free Movement. The Structural Engineer shall provide that structures not supported on deep foundations not be structurally tied into pile‐supported buildings, except as noted below, and shall be designed to allow free vertical movement between structures. Articulated ramps on walkways and building entrances at the interface between the pile and soil‐supported areas can provide a smooth walkway over moderate differential settlements with some amount of maintenance. As the magnitude of the differential Prior to issuance of building permit Applies to all construction Verification of compliant construction plans SSF Building Division 166

Similar ramps may also reduce differential settlements between driveways and pile‐supported parking lots. Over time, voids will tend to form beneath pile‐supported buildings due to on‐going settlement of the landfill. Use of wall skirts around the building perimeter will help to reduce the visual impact of these voids. Geo‐9a: Monitoring and Testing. Special precautions shall be taken to monitor the safety conditions and to provide for the safety of workers in the area. Additionally, if excavations encounter water, this water shall be tested for contaminants and may have to undergo specialized handling, treatment and/or disposal if it is contaminated.

Underground manholes may be shielded from methane intrusion by placement of a membrane around the outside of the structure. To reduce gas migration off‐site within the utility trenches, all trenches crossing the transition zone between the landfill and non‐landfill portions of the property shall be sealed with a clay plug surrounding the pipe or other approved methods. In addition, plugs shall also be provided at the perimeters of buildings to reduce migration of gas through the utility trenches to beneath the buildings. Geo‐10: Provide For Continuity of Landfill Cap. Following planned landfill excavation and landfill cap repair, the project Civil Engineer shall require that excavations for building foundations, utility trenches and other underground structures be configured to maintain continuity of the landfill cap. The specific configuration will depend upon the excavation depth and orientation to underlying wastes.

At a minimum, the plan shall include the following: 1) Requirements for site specific Health and Safety Plans (HASP) shall be prepared in accordance with OSHA regulations by all contractors at the OPSP area. This includes a HASP for all demolition, grading and excavation on the site, as well as for future subsurface maintenance work. The HASP shall include appropriate training, any required personal protective equipment, and monitoring of contaminants to determine exposure. The HASP shall be reviewed and approved by a Certified Industrial Hygienist. The plan shall also designate provisions to limit worker entry and exposure and shall show locations and type of protective fencing to prevent public exposure to hazards during demolition, site grading, and construction activities. 2) Requirements for site‐specific construction techniques that would minimize exposure to any subsurface contamination shall be developed. This shall include dewatering techniques to minimize direct exposure to groundwater during construction activities, treatment and disposal measures for any contaminated groundwater removed from excavations, trenches, and dewatering systems in accordance with local and Regional Water Quality Control Board guidelines. Groundwater encountered in excavations shall not be discharged into the neighboring storm drain, but into a closed containment facility, unless proven to have concentrations of contaminants below established regulatory guidelines. Extracted contaminated groundwater shall be required to be stored in tanks or other sealed container until tested. If testing determines that the water can be discharged into the sanitary sewer system, then the applicant shall acquire a ground water discharge permit from the City of South San Francisco Sanitary Sewer District and meet local discharge limits before 174

Relocation or removal of existing landfill waste/refuse will be required for landfill cap upgrades and for site construction. Excavated waste can either be re‐deposited on site or disposed of at an active landfill facility. Off‐site disposal will require pre‐characterization of the waste for acceptance at an approved waste disposal facility. Waste manifests will be prepared to document transportation and disposal. On‐site disposal shall require proper placement, compaction, and capping of the refuse material. In either case, segregation of Class 2 and Class 3 from Class 1 material for disposal purposes shall be performed on‐site to the extent possible. No Class 1 material shall be relocated or re‐deposited on‐site. BAAQMD Regulation 8 Rule 34 section 118 documents a limited exemption for construction activities at landfill sites. This section specifies that when the construction activities are related to “installing, expanding, replacing, or repairing components of the landfill gas, leachate, or gas condensate collection and removal systems.” Excavation for cap upgrades falls under this exemption. Excavation for construction purposes will also likely fall under this exemption. As such it will be necessary to provide BAAQMD with construction plans and other documentation as detailed under this regulation for the purposes of obtaining a letter of exemption from BAAQMD. Excavation procedures are also discussed in Measure Haz‐2. 4) Future subsurface work plan.

Memorandum
Date: May 4, 2022
To: Rebecca Auld, Lamphier Gregory
From: Daniel Jacobson and Emily Chen, Fehr & Peers
Subject: Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
SF22-1215
This memorandum provides a transportation assessment for a proposed hotel located within the
Oyster Point Specific Plan area in South San Francisco (“Project”). It includes an analysis of travel
demand, site access and circulation, and vehicle miles traveled, as well as a comparison to the
analysis provided in the Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR.
Key Findings
• The Project’s hotel and restaurant uses are unlikely to materially increase vehicle miles
traveled due to the Project’s proximity to office/R&D uses and the San Francisco
International Airport.
• The Project’s size and trip generation is well within the estimated trip generation
envelope of the Specific Plan Area and therefore consistent with the transportation
analysis in the Specific Plan EIR.
• Access and circulation illustrated in the Project’s conceptual site plan is consistent with
the Oyster Point Specific Plan and would not create or exacerbate transportation safety
impacts.
• Based on the above findings, there are no anticipated new impacts to transportation
facilities that were not identified in the Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR.

Project Description
The Project is located on Marina Boulevard near the eastern terminus of Oyster Point Boulevard
adjacent to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal. The Project consists of up to 350 hotel rooms,
a restaurant and bar, and meeting rooms covering about 261,000 square feet. A ballroom may be
added in a future phase. Approximately 250 parking spaces would be provided (78 of which
would be valet) along with a loading dock that accommodates two service trucks. The Project
includes three driveways along Marina Boulevard and a public access trail along the eastern edge
of the site connecting to the Bay Trail.
Project Setting
Land Use & Transportation Context
The Project is located within the Oyster Point Specific Plan area, an 81 acre redevelopment in
South San Francisco approved in 2011. The Specific Plan includes the development of up to 2.3
million square feet of office/R&D space as well as new infrastructure, recreation and open space,
and the proposed Project. The Specific Plan’s Phase One buildings (660,000 square feet) were
completed in early 2022, while remaining phases are underway. The Project is located along
Marina Boulevard near the eastern terminus of Oyster Point Boulevard, which connects to US-101
and major arterials within South San Francisco. Gull Drive, Eccles Avenue, and Gateway Boulevard
are the nearest north-south streets intersecting with Oyster Point Boulevard.
The South San Francisco Ferry Terminal is located adjacent to the project site, while the South San
Francisco Caltrain station and South San Francisco BART Station are accessible via peak period
shuttle services provided by the Peninsula Traffic Congestion Relief Alliance (Commute.org). While
no SamTrans bus service currently serves the site, an extension of Route 130 along the Oyster
Point Boulevard corridor is planned to occur in 2023. New pedestrian and bicycle facilities have
been provided along Oyster Point Boulevard and Marina Boulevard adjacent to the Project site,
including sidewalks, crosswalks, and Class II bike lanes. The Bay Trail covers the perimeter of the
Specific Plan area and has frontage on the southern shoreline of the Project site.

Specific Plan Design Guidelines
The Oyster Point Specific Plan seeks to promote alternative transportation modes to, from and
within the site (Design Goal 3). To accomplish this, it includes the following applicable design
guidelines related to the Project’s site access and circulation:
General Guidelines
• Provide convenient, efficient, and safe access to Oyster Point.
• Maintain and enhance access to adjacent parcels, the waterfront, and the Ferry Terminal.
• Encourage alternative transportation by emphasizing pedestrian, bicycle and transit in the
roadway network design.
• Promote safe pedestrian and vehicular circulation by minimizing conflicts at intersections
and changes in road width and direction.
Service, Delivery and Emergency Access Guidelines
• Service vehicles should be accommodated by the roadway network, with clearly delineated
lane markings, signals, and wayfinding signage.
• Service, delivery and emergency vehicles should have access to both primary as well as
secondary entrances to buildings and facilities.
• These secondary entrances should be limited specifically to service, delivery, and emergency
access.
• Service vehicle driveways and loading areas should be screened and separated from public
pedestrian walkways where possible.
• Secondary access for emergency vehicles will be provided when their access is restricted
from using primary entrances.
Parking Access Guidelines
• Parking access should be clearly delineated by lane markings, signals, and wayfinding
signage.
• Access to and from the parking garages should be located at intersections or from a
dedicated right turn lane.
• Adequate queuing space should be provided at parking garage entrances.
Bicycle Circulation Guidelines
• Bicycle access and parking should be clearly delineated by lane markings and wayfinding
signage.
187
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
May 4, 2022
Page 5 of 12
Streetscapes and Sidewalks Guidelines
• Sidewalks should support an interconnected and public development.
• Width of sidewalks should be appropriate to
• accommodate an active development.
• Sidewalks should be inset from roadways with a landscape buffer where possible to promote
pedestrian friendly circulation.
Guidelines to Support the TDM Program
• The site should include dedicated passenger drop- off and shuttle stop areas.
• Pedestrian connections should be provided to connect the buildings and site adjacent
sidewalks, Bay Trail and shuttle stops.
• Bicycle lanes, routes and/or paths should be provided to allow bicycle accessibility to all
buildings at the site.
• The parking areas should provide preferred parking for carpool, vanpool, low-emitting and
fuel-efficient vehicles, and electric plug-in vehicles.
• Parking should be provided for motorcycle and scooters.
• Long-term (Class I) and Short-Term (Class II) bicycle parking should be provided at or
adjacent to all buildings.
• Shower and changing facilities should be provided in or easily accessible from all buildings.
• Transportation and Commute Information Kiosks should be provided at all buildings.
• In addition to the physical measures described above, the TDM program will include
programmatic measures such as informational resources, transit programs, and commuter
amenities.
Project Travel Demand
Project Trip Generation
Vehicle trip estimates for the Project (Table 1) were developed by applying national trip
generation rates presented in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
Manual 11th Edition to the proposed land uses. Due to the continued disruptions in travel
behavior associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, ITE rates were used in lieu of conducting new
vehicle counts at comparable local sites. ITE Land Use 310 (Hotel) is defined as a place of lodging
and supporting facilities such as a full-service restaurant, bar, meeting rooms, ballrooms, and
convention facilities, which most closely matches the facilities included in the proposed Project.
ITE includes a reasonably large sample size of 28 studies for AM peak hour trip generation data
and 31 studies for PM peak hour trip generation data. Daily trip generation data includes a more
limited sample size of seven studies and may have a higher margin of error.
188
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
May 4, 2022
Page 6 of 12
ITE rates are typically derived from suburban settings that lack a mix of land uses within walking
distance; consequently, Fehr & Peers used the trip generation methodology known as MXD+ to
calibrate the trip generation estimates to local conditions and the proximity to adjacent
office/research & development (R&D) uses. The MXD+ method is based on a weighted average
of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s MXD Model and the National Cooperative Highway
Research Program’s Report 684 methodology. Additional reductions associated with the
proposed transportation demand management program were not included due to limited data
available for comparable hotel sites
As illustrated in Table 1, the project is projected to generate approximately 2,751 vehicle trips on
an average weekday with about 135 occurring in the AM peak hour and about 204 in the PM
peak hour. These trip generation estimates do not account for the proposed transportation
demand management program, which would further reduce the number of private vehicle trips to
the project.
The Project considers adding a ballroom in a future phase. Since ITE rates are based upon hotels
that typically include ballrooms, the trip generation estimates in Table 1 include travel demand
associated with the future ballroom. Consequently, Table 1 may present an overestimate of travel
demand without the ballroom.

Trip Distribution and Assignment
About half of Project vehicle travel is expected to occur within South San Francisco, Brisbane, San
Bruno, and the San Francisco International Airport. Figure 3 illustrates daily vehicle trip
distribution between traffic analysis zones (TAZs) for nearby clusters of hotels in South San
Francisco and Brisbane based on StreetLight data, which tracks anonymized movement using cell
phone location-based services data. Each site shares similar characteristics as business-oriented
hotels that illustrates comparable travel behavior, offering some combination of meeting rooms,
ballrooms, and restaurant/bar facilities, although most of these sites are generally older and
smaller hotels. Based on this analysis, the Project’s vehicle trip distribution is expected to be most
189
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment

Page 7 of 12
heavily concentrated within the East of 101 Area (15 to 20 percent of trips), to/from the San
Francisco International Airport (10 to 15 percent), and elsewhere in South San Francisco, Brisbane,
or San Bruno (10 to 15 percent). The remaining 50 to 60 percent of trips would mostly be
distributed across San Francisco and San Mateo counties.
Figure 3: Vehicle Trip Distribution for Nearby Hotels in South San Francisco and Brisbane
190
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
May 4, 2022
Page 8 of 12
Vehicle trips would be concentrated along Oyster Point Boulevard to access US-101. Upon
reaching US-101, about 50 percent of trips are likely to travel to the south, 40 percent to the
north, and 10 percent continuing along Sister Cities Boulevard. Trips occurring fully within the
East of 101 Area are likely to use Gull Drive, Eccles Avenue, and Gateway Boulevard.
Vehicle Miles Traveled
The Project is a business-oriented hotel primarily serving nearby office/R&D uses and San
Francisco International Airport. Unlike nearby office/R&D land uses in the East of 101 Area that
typically generate vehicle miles, the Project would exhibit characteristics of a local-serving land
use rather than a regional destination. In its Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation
Impacts in CEQA, the State of California’s Office of Planning and Research notes that “local-
serving retail development tends to shorten trips and reduce VMT.”1 Hotels in the East of 101
Area appear to exhibit similar travel behavior as local-serving retail: as illustrated in Figure 3,
vehicle trip lengths for four nearby hotel clusters in South San Francisco and Brisbane tend to be
short and focused around nearby office/R&D uses and the San Francisco International Airport. As
shown in Table 2, the average vehicle trip length for nearby hotels is about four miles, compared
with an average trip length of about 13 miles for other land uses in the East of 101 Area.
Table 2. Trip Length Comparison
East of 101 Area Land Use Average Trip Length
Hotels 3.6-3.9 Miles
Office/R&D and Other Land Uses 12.9 miles
Source: StreetLight data and C/CAG Model
Hotels in the vicinity primarily serve nearby office/R&D uses and the San Francisco International
Airport, as opposed to generating new tourism-oriented or resort-oriented travel. Assuming a
similar travel pattern for the proposed Project as those existing in the vicinity, the Project would
not materially increase vehicle miles traveled and may help shorten trips for hotel guests that
would otherwise stay at hotels farther away. Although the City of South San Francisco does not
have a threshold of significance for VMT associated with hotel uses, the Project may be presumed
to have a less than significant impact to VMT based on the City’s screening criteria for local
serving land uses that do not result in a net increase in VMT.

Specific Plan & City Policy Consistency
Trip Generation
The Specific Plan EIR document published in 2011 estimated that the Specific Plan buildout would
result in 17,684 daily trips, of which 1,873 would occur during the AM peak hour and 2,127 would
occur during the PM peak hour (a net change of about 12,716 daily vehicle trips, 1,402 AM peak
hour trips, and 1,621 PM peak hour trips. As shown in Table 3, the Oyster Point Hotel is expected
to generate in total about 2,751 daily trips, including about 135 AM peak hour trips and 204 PM
peak hour trips. Although the Specific Plan EIR did not break down trip generation by land use,
the Oyster Point Hotel size is consistent with the Specific Plan, is therefore expected to generate a
comparable number of trips as the hotel identified in the Specific Plan EIR. Moreover, its trip
generation is well within the estimated trip generation envelope of the Specific Plan. The Specific
Plan and Project trip generation are summarized in Table 3.

Access & Circulation
Access and circulation illustrated in the Project’s conceptual site plan is consistent with the Oyster
Point Specific Plan. The site plan (Figure 4) includes driveways connecting to Marina Boulevard,
pedestrian connections to the street’s sidewalk, and a Bay Trail connection on its eastern edge as
identified in the Specific Plan.
Service, Delivery and Emergency Access
The Project would provide two onsite loading spaces for commercial deliveries and service
vehicles. The Project would primarily be served by small- to mid-sized box trucks, laundry trucks,
and garbage trucks (all typically 16 to 32 feet). Truck activity is expected to be spread throughout
the day depending on particular functions: for example, garbage trucks typically arrive early
morning, while laundry trucks typically arrive mid-morning (in coordination with housekeeping
services). Service and delivery vehicles would use a screened in loading dock in the middle of the
site. Trucks would enter via the easternmost driveway and conduct a three-point turn within the
parking lot to back into the loading dock. The site plan remains conceptual at the time of this
analysis, but it can be reasonably inferred that the proposed layout can accommodate such trucks
provided that truck turning templates are used to inform the design process.
Larger tractor-trailer vehicles are expected for restaurant delivery. These deliveries would primarily
occur overnight. Tractor-trailer trucks would back in from Marina Boulevard to access the loading
dock. Since the site is located on a relatively low volume street and these deliveries would occur
outside of peak hours, large truck deliveries would not pose conflicts with other modes. Truck
drivers may benefit from approaching the site from the westbound direction (via looping around
the Marina turnaround) to avoid reversing into their blind side when approaching the lot.
The City of South San Francisco requires five loading spaces for a 261,000 square foot commercial
land use. Based on the anticipated loading activity and distribution throughout the day, city
requirements likely exceed anticipated demand, and comparable hotels in the East of 101 Area
typically include one to two loading spaces. The proposed loading supply is expected to be
sufficient provided that hotel management staggers loading activities throughout the day.
Emergency vehicles would have access to all building entrances and facilities as well as the Bay
Trail connection along the east side of the Project.
The Project is therefore consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines for efficient service, delivery,
and emergency vehicle access.
Parking Access
Access for the proposed 250 parking spaces would be provided via three driveways along Marina
Boulevard. Each driveway would serve hotel, restaurant, and meeting room uses, with the
193
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
May 4, 2022
Page 11 of 12
westernmost driveway expected to serve as the primary entrance. Since these driveways are
located along the eastern edge of Marina Boulevard, they are likely to account for a majority of
vehicle traffic along the street and are unlikely to pose conflicts with the limited through traffic
that occurs.
Figure 5: Parking Layout
The Project’s proposed parking supply includes a 26 percent reduction relative to parking
requirements described in Section 20.330.006 of the zoning code. City code would require
approximately 340 parking spaces, of which about one-third would be required for hotel guests
and the remainder for meeting rooms, hotel employees, and other uses. The applicant has
proposed a reduced parking supply due to the hotel’s proximity to nearby office/R&D uses,
access to shuttle, ferry, and planned SamTrans service, and market demand at similar hotels. In
particular, travel behavior of airport- and business-oriented hotel guests has shifted in recent
years from relying on rental cars to Uber and Lyft, resulting in a decrease in parking demand.
While occasional surges in parking demand may occur, the applicant anticipates that this may be
addressed through additional valet parking, shared parking with neighboring lots, and
encouraging visitors to access the hotel via other transportation modes.
194
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
May 4, 2022
Page 12 of 12
Bicycle Access
Bicyclists would access the site via the Project’s driveways. Bicycle parking would be provided per
City code and delineated with signage. The Project would provide 35 bicycle parking spaces,
which is consistent with City code. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines to
incorporate bicycle travel into projects.
Pedestrian Access
The Project would align with the new sidewalk and trail infrastructure in the Specific Plan Area.
Pedestrians would access the Project via a pathway to the lobby. Pedestrians would access the
South San Francisco Ferry Terminal, Commute.org shuttles, and planned SamTrans service by
crossing Marina Boulevard and walking approximately 300 feet to the east to reach the ferry
terminal entrance and bus/shuttle stop. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s
guidelines to support an interconnected and pedestrian-friendly development.
TDM-Supportive Site Plan Features
The Project would be subject to the City’s TDM Ordinance requirements and would incorporate
site plan elements consistent with these requirements as described above, including a passenger
loading area, direct pedestrian connections to sidewalks and transit facilities, access to bike lanes
and trails, and bike parking. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines to
encourage alternative forms of transportation.
EIR Transportation Impacts
The Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR identifies several significant impacts to transportation facilities,
including intersection delay, freeway delay, and offramp queues. Based on the analysis above, the
Project’s effects would be consistent with this analysis. Since the certification of the EIR, the State
of California has adopted new CEQA guidelines that that vehicle level of service (LOS) and similar
measures related to auto delay shall not be used as the sole basis for determining the significance
of transportation impacts. The Project would contribute toward Transportation Impact Fees to
address multimodal transportation needs around the Specific Plan Area.

BMPs shall include numerous practices that will be outlined within
the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), including, but
not limited to, the following mitigation measures:
1. No equipment will be operated in live flow in any of the
sloughs or channels or ditches on or adjacent to the site.
2. No debris, soil, silt, sand, bark, slash, sawdust, cement,
concrete, washings, petroleum products or other organic or
earthen material shall be allowed to enter into or be placed
where it may be washed by rainfall or runoff into aquatic or
wetland habitat.
3. Standard erosion control and slope stabilization measures will
be required for work performed in any area where erosion
could lead to sedimentation of a waterbody. For example, silt
fencing will be installed just outside the limits of grading and
construction in any areas where such activities will occur
upslope from, and within 50 ft of, any wetland, aquatic, or
marsh habitat. This silt fencing will be inspected and
maintained regularly throughout the duration of construction.
4. Machinery will be refueled at least 50 ft from any aquatic
habitat, and a spill prevention and response plan will be
developed. All workers will be informed of the importance of
preventing spills and of the appropriate measures to take
should a spill occur.

occur under new building loads, the OPSP applicant must consider
the use of deep foundations such as driven piles. Specific
recommendations for suitable deep foundation alternatives and
required penetrations will be provided during the course of a
design-level geotechnical investigation and will depend on factors
such as the depth and hardness of the underlying clays, sands or
bedrock, and the corrosivity of the waste materials and Bay Mud
soils. Suitable deep foundation types may include driven precast,
prestressed concrete piles or driven closed-end steel pipe piles
with the interior of the pile filled with concrete after driving.
Deep foundations shall extend through all waste materials and Bay
Mud and be tipped in underlying stiff to hard clays, dense sands or
weathered bedrock. Where waste and Bay Mud soils underlie the
site, wall and column loads as well as floor slabs shall be founded
on deep foundations. Settlement of properly-designed and
constructed deep foundation elements is typically less than about
one-half inch. The majority of settlement typically occurs during
construction as the loads are applied.
Where landfill waste and Bay Mud are not present (possibly at
extreme western and northwestern edges of the site) and
competent soil or bedrock are present near the ground surface
(within about 5 feet of finished grade elevation), shallow
foundations such as footings or mats may be appropriate
foundation types, as determined during the course of a design-
level geotechnical investigation. Where proposed structures
straddle a transition zone between these conditions, a
combination of shallow and deep foundations may be required.
Any transition zones shall be identified during site-specific
geotechnical investigations for preliminary and final designs.

predrilled through the fill and landfill materials to protect the piles
from damage due to unknown materials, to reduce pushing waste
material deeper, and to reduce pile alignment problems or shall
have a pointed tip configuration. If a drill is used, it should only
loosen and break up in-place obstructions that may cause pile
damage. During recent subsurface investigations reported by
Treadwell & Rollo (2009b) obstructions including concrete rubble
was encountered throughout the landfill area, particularly in the
northern end of the site. Even with predrilling, precast concrete
piles could be damaged during installation at a landfill site such as
Oyster Point. For preliminary planning purposes, a precast
concrete pile breakage rate during installation of 10 to 15 percent
may be considered applicable.
Piles usually have to include pointed tip configurations to avoid
pushing landfill waste downward. These configurations are
typically readily accommodated by pile driving contractors.
Geo-5c: Indicator Pile Program. Prior to specifying the lengths of
the production piles, drive indicator piles at the structure sites in
order to observe the driving characteristic of the piles and the
ability of the driving equipment when a driven pile is used. The
driving criteria and pile length of production piles shall also be
estimated from the information obtained from driving of the
indicator piles. The contractor shall use the same equipment to
drive both the indicator and production piles. Indicator pile lengths
and locations shall be selected by the Geotechnical Engineer, in
conjunction with the Structural Engineer and Contractor after the

All grading shall be planned to avoid penetrating the landfill cap
and to reduce the amount of long-term settlement in response to

are still settling under the weight of existing fill and waste
decomposition and will settle more under new fills, additional
settlement should be expected, with the creation of localized low-
lying surface areas. Existing low areas shall be corrected during site
grading to allow for proper drainage. Long-term maintenance
planning for the development shall also include provisions for
periodic grading to correct drainage problems and improve site
grades, as outlined in the Disposition and Development

exposed.
○ Review existing boring data and existing site
documentation to evaluate potential subsurface materials
to be encountered.
○ Stake out area to be excavated.
○ If excavation is to be conducted at depths where
groundwater is to be encountered, conduct dewatering to
minimize worker potential direct contact with

reduce the need for extensive irrigation. Excessive water could
infiltrate the landfill cap and produce leachate. To prevent this,
low-water vegetation shall be selected to reduce irrigation water.
In addition the thickness of the erosion resistant layer in
landscaped areas will be increased to minimize intrusion of roots
into the lower layers of the cover.

and the environment shall be provided in the plan. At a minimum,
the plan shall include the following:
1) Requirements for site specific Health and Safety Plans (HASP)
shall be prepared in accordance with OSHA regulations by all
contractors at the OPSP area. This includes a HASP for all
demolition, grading and excavation on the site, as well as for
future subsurface maintenance work. The HASP shall include
appropriate training, any required personal protective equipment,
and monitoring of contaminants to determine exposure. The HASP
shall be reviewed and approved by a Certified Industrial Hygienist.
The plan shall also designate provisions to limit worker entry and
exposure and shall show locations and type of protective fencing
to prevent public exposure to hazards during demolition, site
grading, and construction activities.
2) Requirements for site-specific construction techniques that
would minimize exposure to any subsurface contamination shall be
developed. This shall include dewatering techniques to minimize
direct exposure to groundwater during construction activities,
treatment and disposal measures for any contaminated
groundwater removed from excavations, trenches, and dewatering
systems in accordance with local and Regional Water Quality
Control Board guidelines. Groundwater encountered in
excavations shall not be discharged into the neighboring storm
drain, but into a closed containment facility, unless proven to have
concentrations of contaminants below established regulatory
guidelines. Extracted contaminated groundwater shall be required
to be stored in tanks or other sealed container until tested. If
testing determines that the water can be discharged into the
sanitary sewer system, then the applicant shall acquire a ground
water discharge permit from the City of South San Francisco
Sanitary Sewer District and meet local discharge limits before

being allowed to discharge into the sanitary sewer. Water shall be
analyzed for the chemicals of concern at the site, including
benzene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, chlorobenzene, naphthalene and
additional compounds as requested by the receiving facility or the
City of South San Francisco.
3) Waste relocation. Relocation or removal of existing landfill
waste/refuse will be required for landfill cap upgrades and for site
construction. Excavated waste can either be re-deposited on site
or disposed of at an active landfill facility. Off-site disposal will
require pre-characterization of the waste for acceptance at an
approved waste disposal facility. Waste manifests will be prepared
to document transportation and disposal. On-site disposal shall
require proper placement, compaction, and capping of the refuse
material. In either case, segregation of Class 2 and Class 3 from
Class 1 material for disposal purposes shall be performed on-site to
the extent possible. No Class 1 material shall be relocated or re-
deposited on-site. BAAQMD Regulation 8 Rule 34 section 118
documents a limited exemption for construction activities at
landfill sites. This section specifies that when the construction
activities are related to “installing, expanding, replacing, or
repairing components of the landfill gas, leachate, or gas
condensate collection and removal systems.” Excavation for cap
upgrades falls under this exemption. Excavation for construction
purposes will also likely fall under this exemption. As such it will be
necessary to provide BAAQMD with construction plans and other
documentation as detailed under this regulation for the purposes
of obtaining a letter of exemption from BAAQMD. Excavation
procedures are also discussed in Measure Haz-2.
4) Future subsurface work plan. The plan shall document
procedures for future subsurface landscaping work, utility
maintenance, etc., with proper notification, where applicable. The

plan shall include a general health and safety plan for each
expected type of work, with appropriate personal protective
equipment, where applicable. This plan may be included in the
operations and maintenance plan as appropriate.
Haz-6b: Landfill Gas System. Section 21160 of Title 27 of the CCR
requires that closed landfills implement and maintain landfill gas
control. A landfill gas (LFG) venting system shall be placed under
the bottom slabs of each structure built entirely or partially over
landfill material, to collect and vent the build up of gases diffusing
through the landfill cap. The LFG system shall include spray-applied
vapor barrier membranes, horizontal collection and passive
venting, gas detection and monitoring. The system shall either
have backup active collection and venting or shall be designed to
facilitate retrofitting with an active system, if measures warrant
the retrofit. Potential migration of LFG into the building space shall
be mitigated by the collection and venting system, and secondly by
the spray-applied membrane. Subsurface landfill gases shall be
vented by a network of perforated piping placed beneath the
building slabs. The exhaust gases shall be manifolded to a series of
riser piping that is to be vented above structure roofs. Passive
landfill gas systems do not require permits, however if an active
system is installed, either at the time of construction or as part of a
retrofit, a BAAQMD permit will be needed.

The majority of these improvements are included in the Sewer
Master Plan and are funded through a flat-rate sewer connection
fee for new development and a monthly impact fee. The amount
of the impact fee is based on the quantity (flow) of wastewater
generated. The occupants of the proposed OPSP shall pay the
sanitary sewer fees imposed by the City of South San Francisco in
order to mitigate the cost of the sewer system upgrades necessary
to manage the wastewater flows generated by the OPSP.
An additional 700 feet of 8-inch diameter sewer trunk from Eccles
Avenue to Gull Road needs to be upsized to a 12-inch diameter
trunk sewer. This segment of sewer trunk was not included in the
recommendations in the Sewer Master Plan. The applicants shall

finds as follows:
SECTION 1 FINDINGS
A.General Findings
1.The foregoing recitals are true and correct and made a part of this Resolution.
2.The Exhibits attached to this Resolution,including Conditions of Project Approval (Exhibit A),Oyster
Point Hotel Project Plan Set (Exhibit B),and the Transportation Demand Management Plan (Exhibit C
),and Development Agreement (Exhibit F)are each incorporated by reference and made a part of this
Resolution, as if set forth fully herein.
3.The documents and other material constituting the record for these proceedings are located at the
Planning Division for the City of South San Francisco,315 Maple Avenue,South San Francisco,CA
94080, and in the custody of the Planning Manager, Tony Rozzi.
By a separate resolution,the Planning Commission,exercising its independent judgment and analysis made
the findings contained in that Resolution and recommended that the City Council make a determination
that the environmental effects of the proposed Project were sufficiently analyzed under the 2011 Oyster
Point Specific Plan EIR (EIR)pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)Guidelines
Sections 15162 and 15168 and no additional environmental review is required.The Planning
Commission also recommended that the City Council make a determination that the environmental
checklist also demonstrates that the proposed project qualifies for streamlining under CEQA Guidelines
Section 15183,as there are no project-specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its
site.
4.The proposed Project is consistent and compatible with all elements in the City of South San Francisco
General Plan,as it will help the City implement several broad General Plan goals,including but not
limited to:maintaining a balanced land use program that provides opportunities for continued economic
growth,and building intensities that reflect South San Francisco’s prominent inner bay location and
excellent regional access.
5.The proposed Project is consistent with the standards and requirements of the City's Zoning Ordinance.

Version:1 Item #:4b.
5.The proposed Project is consistent with the standards and requirements of the City's Zoning Ordinance.
The development of the Project Site would result in the construction of new 350 room hotel as
anticipated in the Oyster Point Specific Plan.
6.The site is physically suitable for the type of development and density proposed,as an existing vacant
underutilized site will be developed as a 350 room hotel that meets the City’s land use and zoning
standards, and the Oyster Point Specific Plan.
B.Design Review
1.The project is consistent with the applicable standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance
because,as conditioned,the project meets all of the development standards of the Oyster Point Specific
Plan District in the South San Francisco Municipal Code including but not limited to floor area,height,
lot coverage, and land use.
2.The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and the Oyster Point Specific Plan District,
including the goals,policies,and implementation measures and will minimize the effects of traffic,
parking,storm water run-off,and construction dust and emissions on adjacent land uses and properties
in the project vicinity.
o Allow parking reductions for projects that have agreed to implement trip reduction methods (4.3
-I-18, Transportation Element);
o Require new development pay a fair share of the cost of street and other traffic and
transportation improvements (4.2-I-7, Transportation Element);
o Adopt the standard construction dust abatement measures included in BAAQMD’s CEQA
Guidelines.These measures would reduce particulate emissions from construction and grading
activities. (7.3-I-3, Conservation and Open Space Element); and
o Encourage land use and transportation strategies that promote use of alternatives to the
automobile for transportation,including bicycling,bus transit,and carpooling (7.3-G-4,
Conservation and Open Space Element)
3.The Project is consistent with the applicable design guidelines adopted by the City Council;because the
proposed Hotel building includes adequate design features to create architectural interest and avoid a large-
scale,bulky and “box-like”appearance.Long facades are broken up into smaller visual components
through variations in form and texture.Wall planes are varied and exterior building walls vary in depth
and/or direction.Building walls exhibit offsets,recesses,or projections with significant depth,or a repeated
pattern of offsets,recesses,or projections of smaller depth.There is variety in height and roof forms.
Building height is varied so that portions of the building have a change in height and are varied over
different portions of the building through changes in the roof parapets,elevators and stairway projections.
The building façade incorporates details such as window recesses and changes in material.The use of

The building façade incorporates details such as window recesses and changes in material.The use of
materials,textures,and colors enhance architectural interest and emphasize details and changes in plane.
Some of the architectural features of the main façade are incorporated into the rear and side elevations.
4.The Project is consistent with Findings for Approval for the other entitlements the project requires
including use permit and a transportation demand management (TDM)program as detailed in the staff
report and findings. In summary:
a)The hotel land use is a permitted use in the Oyster Point Specific Plan District and the hotel use
supports the Oyster Point Specific Plan vision for a hotel at this site that serves airport clientele
and visitor serving uses, as well as, reduced trips and parking.
b)The project satisfies the Use Permit Findings for reduced parking for airport oriented hotels.
c)The project is consistent with TDM Findings by offering numerous trip reduction measures to
employees and guests that will reduce trips.
5.The Project is consistent with the applicable design review criteria in South San Francisco Municipal
Code Section 20.480.006 (“Design Review Criteria”)because the project has been reviewed and
recommended for approval by the Design Review Board on May 17,2022 because it was found to be
consistent with each of the following eight design review criteria included in the “Design Review Criteria”
section of the Ordinance.
1.The site subject to design review shall be graded and developed with due regard for the natural
terrain,aesthetic quality,and landscaping so as not to impair the environmental quality,value,or stability of
the site or the environmental quality or value of improved or unimproved property in the area.
2. A building, structure, or sign shall:
a)Reasonably relate to its site and property in the immediate and adjacent areas;
b)Not be of such poor quality of design as to adversely affect the environmental quality or
desirability of the immediate areas or neighboring areas; and
c)Not unreasonably interfere with the occupancy,environmental quality,or the stability and value
of improved or unimproved real property or have an unreasonable detrimental effect on the
health, safety, and general welfare of the community.
3.New additions to existing residential dwellings shall be architecturally compatible with the primary
residential unit, with respect to style, massing, roof pitch, color and materials.
4.A site shall be developed to achieve a harmonious relationship with the area in which it is located
and adjacent areas,allowing a reasonable similarity of style or originality,which does not impair the
environmental quality or value of improved or unimproved property or prevent appropriate development

environmental quality or value of improved or unimproved property or prevent appropriate development
and use of such areas or produce degeneration of properties in such areas with attendant deterioration of
conditions affecting the health, safety, and general welfare of the City.
5.Parking areas shall be designed and developed to buffer surrounding land uses;compliment
pedestrian-oriented development;enhance the environmental quality of the site,including minimizing
stormwater run-off and the heat-island effect; and achieve a safe, efficient, and harmonious development.
6.Open space,pedestrian walks,signs,illumination,and landscaping (including irrigation)shall be
designed and developed to enhance the environmental quality of the site,achieve a safe,efficient,and
harmonious development,and accomplish the objectives set forth in the precise plan of design and design
criteria.
7.Electrical and mechanical equipment or works and fixtures and trash storage areas shall be designed
and constructed so as not to detract from the environmental quality of the site.Electrical and mechanical
equipment or works and fixtures and trash storage areas shall be concealed by an appropriate architectural
structure which uses colors and materials harmonious with the principal structure,unless a reasonable
alternative is identified.
8.Components considered in design review shall include but not be limited to exterior design,
materials,textures,colors,means of illumination,landscaping,irrigation,height,shadow patterns,parking,
access,security,safety,and other usual on-site development elements.(Ord.1544 §2,2017;Ord.1432 §2,
2010)
C.Transportation Demand Management Plan
1.The proposed trip reduction measures are feasible and appropriate for the project,considering the
proposed use or mix of uses and the project’s location,size,and hours of operation based on a detailed
review of the Transportation Demand Management plan for the proposed hotel which outlines numerous
trip reduction measures applicable to both guests and employees including but not limited to subsidized
transit passes for employees encouraging uses of Caltrain,BART,SF Bay Ferry and SamTrans services,
bicycle storage showers and lockers and repair,and strategies to reduce employee commutes such as
carpool/vanpool ridematching,guaranteed ride home programs,and free parking for carpool/vanpools
just to name a few.All of these and more trip reduction measures discussed in the project TDM plan are
feasible and relevant to the operation of the proposed hotel land use and it’s guests and employees.
2.The proposed performance guarantees will ensure that the target alternative mode use established for the
project by this chapter will be achieved and maintained because the project TDM program demonstrates
that trip reduction is feasible with the implementation of the proposed measure outlined in the TDM
program for hotel occupants,visitors,guests and employees which will be monitored on a yearly basis

1.Distance the hotel or motel is located from the airport. Airport-oriented hotels and motels are usually
located no further than three miles from the San Francisco International Airport.The proposed Hotel would
be located within three miles of the San Francisco International (SFO) Airport’s border.
2.Availability of airport bus and/or limousine service.The location of this hotel will be served by various
airport shuttle, bus and limousine services
3.Proximity of auto rental agencies to the site. Additional parking may be required for rental facilities on
the site.Since San Francisco International Airport is located in close proximity to the hotel there are many
rental car services nearby. There are approximately 6-8 car rental facilities all within less than 3 miles of
the proposed hotel.
4.Availability of parking facilities adjoining the site which have peak use hours different from peak hours
of the hotel or motel.In the project vicinity there is a combination of several large scale public and private
surface parking lots which would have alternate parking peaks from the hotel.
5.Documentation of actual use of parking spaces at an existing and comparable facility for an extended
period of time.Parking demand estimated using standard rates published by ITE in Parking Generation,
5th Edition is expected to be 259 parking spaces, a deficit of 27 spaces. However, with the implementation
of the TDM plan measures, discussed further in the following section, the proposed parking supply is
expected to be adequate.
6.Availability of on-site meeting rooms and conference facilities.The project as proposed would provide
approximately 14,300 square feet of on-site meeting rooms and conference facilities.
7.Designation of additional parking spaces to allow for extended parking for guests using the airport.As
proposed, the Hotel would not be providing extended parking (e.g., for long-term airport parking). As
proposed, the parking stalls would be solely for overnight guests and employees.
8.In determining the required number of off-street parking spaces needed for an airport-oriented hotel or
motel,the Planning Commission shall include provisions for additional off-street parking spaces to serveCity of South San Francisco Printed on 11/10/2022Page 6 of 7

PARKS DEPARTMENT
The following Parks Department comments shall be addressed on the plans submitted for building
permit:
1.Page 21/22: L7.00 & L7.01 - Cercis occidentalis will not survive at this location. Both species
of redbuds have been tried all through out SSF and the wind and climate do not allow for them to
grow well if they even survive. - Myoporum laetum are significantly impacted by thrips in this
area. These trees were previously growing at this site and were all declining due to repeated thrip
attacks. - Parking areas should not have Podocarpus gracilior due to their tendency to damage
hardscaped areas with root intrusion. The high winds will cause roots to seek hold further away
into the windward side and will damage the paving significantly. - Laurus nobilis can vector
Sudden Oak Death and verified clean stock must be used when planting. - Site is incredibly windy
and redwoods should only be planted between the hotel and the bay to have the building block
wind. If not these trees will be repeatedly topped by the wind and will never reach potential and
look terrible.
2.Page 24: L8.01 – There are notice low water use plants mixed with moderate water use plants in
the shrub schedule. Plants should be hydrozoned based off water needs across species and have
valves dedicated to each water requirement for those species. This conflicts with irrigation legend
where low water use shrubs are shown in highlighting the bioswales on page L9.00 and yet
moderate water use plants are called for in the bioswale areas on page L8.01. Please fix this or
explain how this is being thought about and justified.
251
Page 18
3.Page 30: A1.00 - This plan shows an old version of the recreation parcel to the west of the hotel.
This parcel plan has significantly changed and should be reflected in these plans and contemplated
in designing of building. This should be coordinated with the City.
Please have applicant contact Joshua Richardson at Parks Department with any questions at
Joshua.Richardson@ssf.net.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Owner
1. INTRODUCTION:
Ensemble Real Estate Investments (“Applicant”) proposes to develop a full-service hotel on the peninsula of Oyster Point designated within South
San Francisco specific plan (formal address yet to be assigned). The applicant seeks approval of the Precise Plan (“Entitlements”) by the end of 2022
with the intent of submitting to the building department for permit approval by the end of 2023. The project intends to service the Oyster Point
developments currently under construction or planned to be built by Kilroy Reality while also providing public amenities to the broader community East
of the 101 area.
2. SETTING:
The property is approximately 204,742 square foot parcel (4.70 acres; APN: 015-011-350) that sits on the peninsula of the Oyster Point specific plan and
is dedicated for a future hotel development. The site is flanked by the existing marina to the north and the San Francisco bay to the south. The Bay
Trail extends along the southern edge of the site and connects around the end of the peninsula. To the west of the site a dedicated public open space
is planned while to the east are existing commercial buildings and parking lots with access to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal. The site is a
“Brownfield site” that has been regraded and capped by Kilroy Reality, the master developer of the specific plan, and is currently sitting vacant, ready
for development.
3. PROPOSED PROJECT
a. Project Features
The proposed project would consist of a maximum 350 hotel rooms, restaurant, lobby lounge, event ballroom, meeting rooms, fitness facilities, roof
top bar and the associated back of house facilities to service the amenities. Hotel amenities, specifically the restaurant, lounge, and roof top bar, are
intended to be available to the public and provide views both north and south across the San Francisco Bay. Access to the existing north-south bay trail
path is considered across the site landscape as well as connections back to the primary pedestrian paths along Marina Blvd.
In total the gross building area is approximately 261,000 square feet in habitable area, with the potential to expand in a future phase with an additional
14,200 square feet of function and meeting space and will provide a total of 249 parking spaces of which all of them are intended to be fully valet
operated. A screened loading dock and yard with space allocated for two dedicated service trucks is provided adjacent to the back of house facilities
with access through the central parking lot.
The building will be classified high-rise at 12 habitable floors with the last floor served sitting at 119ft above grade. Additional height is considered at the
top of the building for mechanical equipment screening and elevator overruns that will put the overall height of the building at approximately 165 feet
ASL and 146 ft above finish grade.
b. Requested Approvals
The applicant plans to submit the Precise Plan application by April 29, 2022 and is seeking approval of the project’s Precise Plan by the end of calendar
year 2022.
Pending approval of the precise plan, the Applicant intends to submit the project plans for construction permit by the end of 2023.
Additional review will be submitted to the FAA for confirmation of building height with respect to the airport approach corridors.
c. Public Benefits
The Project aims to fill the market need, providing a 4-star hotel to service the growing business developments within the Oyster Point specific plan
and surrounding areas. The project will provide additional function and meeting space while being positioned at an International Audience for business
travelers. The project amenities will provide an anchor for the community with its food and beverage offerings as well as gathering opportunities within
the lounge and bar spaces.
The hotel can further support the potential for a future ferry terminal proposed by the South San Francisco City within the marina to the north of the
hotel while providing employment and career opportunities for the South San Francisco workforce.

Memorandum
Date: October 19, 2022
To: Randy McPherson, Ensemble and Christy Usher, City of South San Francisco
From: Daniel Jacobson, Fehr & Peers
Subject: Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Demand Management Checklist
SF22-1215
This memorandum provides a transportation demand management (TDM) checklist for the Oyster
Point Hotel project (“Project”) consistent with Chapter 20.400 of the City’s Draft Zoning
Amendment Ordinance. As a Tier 2 project, the Project is required to submit a TDM checklist of
required and optional trip reduction measures that achieve a minimum threshold of 30 points. An
annual self-certification form is required for the first 20 years after occupancy confirming the
implementation of these measures.
Summary of TDM Checklist
The project would implement all required measures. Programmatic measures would include
transit pass subsidies, participation in Commute.org programs, carpool/vanpool programs, and a
dedicated TDM coordinator. Bicycle and pedestrian-oriented site access would focus on new
connections to the Bay Trail and direct paths of access to Marina Boulevard and nearby transit
facilities, as illustrated in the Project’s site plan. Bicycle storage, showers, and lockers would also
be provided. As a hotel, employee work shifts would typically not revolve around a ‘9 to 5’
schedule, so Project commute behavior would be consistent with the City’s goals to reduce peak
period travel.
The project would implement two optional TDM measures. First, the project would fully subsidize
transit passes for its employees, encouraging use of Caltrain, BART, SF Bay Ferry, and SamTrans
services. Second, the project would utilize a shared parking approach to right-size parking supply
for the hotel, restaurant, and special event uses. As described in the project’s Parking
Management Plan, the shared parking approach would include strategies to manage vehicle trips
associated with special events through offering trip planning assistance via the site’s TDM
coordinator.

1. Introduction
This report presents a Parking Management Plan as required per the City of South San Francisco Zoning
Code for a proposed hotel at 367 Marina Boulevard, herein referred to as the “Project.” The City requires
that hotels provide justification documenting expected demand based on project features as well as the
project’s approach to management and monitoring of parking. This study analyzes potential parking
demand based and proposes several practices to manage supply and demand should any imbalances
occur. Based on the analysis presented in this report, the Project’s proposed parking supply is expected to
adequately serve typical demand. Parking management strategies are presented to handle occasional
surges in special event demand.
Project Description
The Project is located at 367 Marina Boulevard adjacent to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal. The
Project consists of approximately 350 hotel rooms, 10,300 square feet of dining space, and 14,300 square
feet of meeting rooms. An 8,000 square foot ballroom may be added in a future phase. The Project would
provide 232 parking spaces, of which 33 would be valet spaces. The Project includes three driveways
along Marina Boulevard and a public access trail along the eastern edge of the site connecting to the Bay
Trail. Figure 1 depicts the proposed parking layout, while Figure 2 illustrates the site plan program.

Figure 2: Site Plan Program
The Project’s parking supply takes into consideration several factors that influence market demand. The
hotel would primarily be oriented toward airport- and business-travelers who are more likely to rely on
Uber and Lyft than rental cars. Additionally, the hotel is located within walking distance of a number of
office/R&D campuses and is served by Commute.org shuttles, planned SamTrans service, and WETA ferry
service. The availability of these services coupled with the Project’s transportation demand management
(TDM) program suggests lower parking demand than typical suburban hotel sites.
While occasional surges in parking demand may occur during special events, the applicant anticipates that
this may be addressed through management strategies tailored to each event. A parking management
plan is provided in the final section of this report.

2. Parking Demand Analysis
This report analyzes parking demand via two methods: the first method uses a shared parking method to
analyze the Project’s proposed uses based on national data, which the second reviews national and local
data focused on peak demand. Combined, these methods offer insights into how the Project’s parking
demand may be affected by its mix of uses and location in South San Francisco.
Shared Parking Method
The ULI Shared Parking Manual provides estimates hotel parking demand based on the mix of uses
specific to the Project. It estimates that hotel visitors generate a weekday demand of about 0.58 parking
spaces per room, and hotel employees generate a demand of 0.15 parking spaces per room. Other
features of the proposed Project can be reflected in the ULI calculations as well, including its restaurant
and meeting room space.
The ULI Shared Parking Manual also calculates how parking demand varies by time of day. For employees,
parking demand would be at its peak between 8 AM and 3 PM; for guests, parking demand would peak at
11 PM. At other times of day, parking demand for each group would be below its respective peaks.
The ULI Shared Parking method estimates the Project’s typical peak parking demand to be 234 spaces,
which would fluctuate by time of day and day of the week (Figure 3). These calculations are provided in
Appendix A. ULI does not take into account a project’s proximity to other land uses, use of transit or ride-
hailing, or presence of a TDM program, so this estimate may be interpreted as slightly higher than what
may be expected of the Project.
Based on the ULI method, the Project’s proposed parking supply of 232 spaces appears roughly consistent
with typical demand, although peak demand during the morning may reach 234 spaces. While the
Project’s location and likelihood of higher rates of walking, biking, transit, carpooling, and ride-hailing
should help reduce demand, the ULI method suggests that demand may occasionally meet or exceed the
Project’s supply. If such periods occur, supply should be actively managed using practices noted in
Section 3.

Peak Parking Demand Method
National and local data sources are also available to estimate peak parking demand. While these sources
lack specificity on how a mix of uses affects hotel parking demand, they provide further insights on how
hotel parking demand may vary – which is especially true of recent local data that reflects changing
transportation conditions in the Bay Area.
ITE Data
Data from the ITE Parking Generation Manual (5th Edition) provides industry-accepted standards for
estimating parking demand for different land uses based on nationwide research and data collection. The
ITE Parking Generation Manual projects that standard hotels with meeting rooms and restaurant spaces
would generate a typical peak parking demand of 0.74 spaces per hotel room, which translates to about
259 spaces for the proposed Project. The peak parking demand rate represents the maximum number of
parking spaces used at a single point in time. However, there could be several (or many) hours throughout
the day in which parking demand would be lower than the maximum rate.

ITE’s data has several limitations: it lacks specificity in documenting the location, timeframe, and mix of
uses in which its data was sampled, and many of its datapoints are from suburban locations out of state
that predated Uber and Lyft, with different mixes of amenities present. For these reasons, ITE tends to be a
less reliable source for estimating hotel parking demand, and is presented in this report for informational
purposes.
Local Data
Recent data collected in the Bay Area demonstrates how hotel parking demand is changing over time.
Data was available from 47 days of observation across 19 different hotels. These studies were conducted
between 2014 and 2019 in the cities of South San Francisco, Burlingame, San Mateo, Belmont, San Carlos,
Redwood City, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and Cupertino. Hotels within the sample ranged in
size from 56 to 187 guest rooms. See Appendix B for a complete list of hotels studied.
In each study, parking counts were conducted across multiple hours in the day. In some cases, parking
counts were available for the full day of data collection; for others, only the peak observed parking count
was reported. For each hotel, the peak observed parking demand and the number of hotel rooms were
then used to calculate the peak parking demand rate. Like the ITE data, these local studies share the
limitations of insufficient documentation of the mix of hotel uses, and are typically smaller in scale than
the proposed Project.
On average, the peak observed parking demand rate was 0.50 spaces per hotel room. The highest
observed peak demand rate was 0.84 spaces per hotel room, and the lowest was 0.28 spaces per room.
Figure 4 below displays the relationship between hotel size (by number of rooms) and peak parking
demand rate - there was no correlation between hotel size and parking demand rate.
Figure 4. Peak Parking Demand Rate by Hotel Size
Avg = 0.50

Of the 47 observations, 29 included information about how many hotel rooms were occupied during the
period of data collection; 22 of those 29 hotels were more than 90 percent occupied. At hotels that were
more than 90 percent occupied, the average peak parking demand was 0.52 spaces per hotel room
(approximately equivalent to the average for all hotels in the sample). These results suggest that even
when a hotel is fully occupied, a large proportion of guests do not travel by car or require a parking space.
The rise of ride-hailing over the past decade has changed how people travel when visiting hotels. Figure 5
illustrates peak parking demand rates observed by year, illustrating an overall downtrend in hotel parking
demand. Among the sites sampled, in 2015, the peak parking demand rate observed was 0.74 spaces per
hotel room (similar to ITE’s estimate); in 2019, the peak parking demand rate at that hotel was 0.40 spaces
per room. While these results do not reflect a true before/after study of parking demand at the same sites,
they suggest that hotel parking demand declined over time as travelers replaced rental cars with ride-
hailing trips.
Based on the local data presented above, peak parking demand for the proposed Project is estimated to
be roughly 140 to 182 spaces. To some extent, the proposed Project’s proximity to transit and other land
uses within walking distance may further reduce parking demand compared to some other sites surveyed.
However, this range may be an underestimate as it may not fully take into account the effects of larger
events that are more typical of a larger hotel compared to the smaller hotels sampled. For these reasons,
the Project’s 232 parking spaces appears adequate to meet demand, but there is some uncertainty in how
this could vary with larger events.

3. Parking Management Practices
This parking demand analysis illustrates that the Project’s parking supply of 232 spaces should generally
be sufficient to accommodate demand under typical peak conditions. Local data suggests typical peak
parking demand may be as low as 140 to 182 spaces, while the ULI Shared Parking model suggests
parking demand may reach 234 spaces. There is uncertainty in both estimation methods associated with
special events and the Project’s unique location, which may result in larger fluctuations in demand and a
lower overall auto mode share than national and local data points.
For these reasons, the Project should actively monitor parking conditions to prepare for typical surges in
demand (occurring on a daily/weekly basis) and atypical surges demand (occurring due to large special
events held at the hotel. When parking demand nears or exceeds supply, the hotel operator shall
implement the following parking management practices:
▪ TDM Program: The hotel operator shall implement a TDM program as required by the City’s
ordinance and documented in the Project’s TDM Checklist.
▪ Event Planning: Event sponsors shall work with the hotel operator to develop a parking
management approach tailored to the scale and market of each event.
▪ Valet Parking: During typical daily/weekly peak periods and for special events, the hotel operator
should expand valet parking areas or shift to an all-valet system while scaling up valet staffing as
necessary. As a first step, employee parking should be fully valet at all times.
▪ Offsite Parking: For larger events, the hotel operator should establish partnerships with offsite
parking facilities for valet and self-park use. Offsite parking is particularly useful for evening events
and on days when adjacent lots are not full.
▪ Shuttle Charters or Ride-Hailing Promotions: If valet and offsite parking not able to fully
accomodate larger events due to scheduling conflicts, the hotel operator should work with event
sponsors to establish shuttle charters or ride-hailing credit promotions for event attendees. Shuttle
charters may be more suitable to events oriented toward specific employers in the East of 101 Area,
while ride-hailing credit promotions may be more suited toward events targeting a wider audience.
▪ Trip Planning Assistance: For all events, the hotel operator and event sponsor should provide trip
planning assistance that prominently features wayfinding instructions for transit, active
transportation, and ride-hailing access as well as instructions for valet or offsite parking. Non-auto
modes of access should be promoted to reduce overall vehicle trips to the site, especially for events
targeted to employers within the East of 101 Area.
▪ Event Monitoring: The hotel operator shall be responsible for monitoring parking demand for
special events and adjust its management practices as needed.
By implementing these parking management practices, the hotel operator should be able to minimize
instances of parking shortages associated with special events and other typical surges in demand.

Memorandum
Date: October 21, 2022
To: Rebecca Auld, Lamphier Gregory and Christy Usher, City of South San Francisco
From: Daniel Jacobson and Emily Chen, Fehr & Peers
Subject: Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
SF22-1215
This memorandum provides a transportation assessment for a proposed hotel located within the
Oyster Point Specific Plan area in South San Francisco (“Project”). It includes an analysis of travel
demand, site access and circulation, and vehicle miles traveled, as well as a comparison to the
analysis provided in the Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR.
Key Findings
• The Project’s hotel and restaurant uses are unlikely to materially increase vehicle miles
traveled due to the Project’s proximity to office/R&D uses and the San Francisco
International Airport.
• The Project’s size and trip generation is well within the estimated trip generation
envelope of the Specific Plan Area and therefore consistent with the transportation
analysis in the Specific Plan EIR.
• Access and circulation illustrated in the Project’s conceptual site plan is consistent with
the Oyster Point Specific Plan and would not create or exacerbate transportation safety
impacts.
• Based on the above findings, there are no anticipated new impacts to transportation
facilities that were not identified in the Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR.

Project Description
The Project is located on Marina Boulevard near the eastern terminus of Oyster Point Boulevard
adjacent to the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal. The Project consists of up to 350 hotel rooms,
a restaurant and bar, and meeting rooms covering about 261,000 square feet. A ballroom may be
added in a future phase. Approximately 232 parking spaces would be provided (33 of which
would be valet) along with a loading dock that accommodates two service trucks. The Project
includes three driveways along Marina Boulevard and a public access trail along the eastern edge
of the site connecting to the Bay Trail.
Project Setting
Land Use & Transportation Context
The Project is located within the Oyster Point Specific Plan area, an 81 acre redevelopment in
South San Francisco approved in 2011. The Specific Plan includes the development of up to 2.3
million square feet of office/R&D space as well as new infrastructure, recreation and open space,
and the proposed Project. The Specific Plan’s Phase One buildings (660,000 square feet) were
completed in early 2022, while remaining phases are underway. The Project is located along
Marina Boulevard near the eastern terminus of Oyster Point Boulevard, which connects to US-101
and major arterials within South San Francisco. Gull Drive, Eccles Avenue, and Gateway Boulevard
are the nearest north-south streets intersecting with Oyster Point Boulevard.
The South San Francisco Ferry Terminal is located adjacent to the project site, while the South San
Francisco Caltrain station and South San Francisco BART Station are accessible via peak period
shuttle services provided by the Peninsula Traffic Congestion Relief Alliance (Commute.org). While
no SamTrans bus service currently serves the site, an extension of Route 130 along the Oyster
Point Boulevard corridor is planned to occur in 2023. New pedestrian and bicycle facilities have
been provided along Oyster Point Boulevard and Marina Boulevard adjacent to the Project site,
including sidewalks, crosswalks, and Class II bike lanes. The Bay Trail covers the perimeter of the
Specific Plan area and has frontage on the southern shoreline of the Project site.

Specific Plan Design Guidelines
The Oyster Point Specific Plan seeks to promote alternative transportation modes to, from and
within the site (Design Goal 3). To accomplish this, it includes the following applicable design
guidelines related to the Project’s site access and circulation:
General Guidelines
• Provide convenient, efficient, and safe access to Oyster Point.
• Maintain and enhance access to adjacent parcels, the waterfront, and the Ferry Terminal.
• Encourage alternative transportation by emphasizing pedestrian, bicycle and transit in the
roadway network design.
• Promote safe pedestrian and vehicular circulation by minimizing conflicts at intersections
and changes in road width and direction.
Service, Delivery and Emergency Access Guidelines
• Service vehicles should be accommodated by the roadway network, with clearly delineated
lane markings, signals, and wayfinding signage.
• Service, delivery and emergency vehicles should have access to both primary as well as
secondary entrances to buildings and facilities.
• These secondary entrances should be limited specifically to service, delivery, and emergency
access.
• Service vehicle driveways and loading areas should be screened and separated from public
pedestrian walkways where possible.
• Secondary access for emergency vehicles will be provided when their access is restricted
from using primary entrances.
Parking Access Guidelines
• Parking access should be clearly delineated by lane markings, signals, and wayfinding
signage.
• Access to and from the parking garages should be located at intersections or from a
dedicated right turn lane.
• Adequate queuing space should be provided at parking garage entrances.
Bicycle Circulation Guidelines
• Bicycle access and parking should be clearly delineated by lane markings and wayfinding
signage.

Streetscapes and Sidewalks Guidelines
• Sidewalks should support an interconnected and public development.
• Width of sidewalks should be appropriate to
• accommodate an active development.
• Sidewalks should be inset from roadways with a landscape buffer where possible to promote
pedestrian friendly circulation.
Guidelines to Support the TDM Program
• The site should include dedicated passenger drop- off and shuttle stop areas.
• Pedestrian connections should be provided to connect the buildings and site adjacent
sidewalks, Bay Trail and shuttle stops.
• Bicycle lanes, routes and/or paths should be provided to allow bicycle accessibility to all
buildings at the site.
• The parking areas should provide preferred parking for carpool, vanpool, low-emitting and
fuel-efficient vehicles, and electric plug-in vehicles.
• Parking should be provided for motorcycle and scooters.
• Long-term (Class I) and Short-Term (Class II) bicycle parking should be provided at or
adjacent to all buildings.
• Shower and changing facilities should be provided in or easily accessible from all buildings.
• Transportation and Commute Information Kiosks should be provided at all buildings.
• In addition to the physical measures described above, the TDM program will include
programmatic measures such as informational resources, transit programs, and commuter
amenities.
Project Travel Demand
Project Trip Generation
Vehicle trip estimates for the Project (Table 1) were developed by applying national trip
generation rates presented in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
Manual 11th Edition to the proposed land uses. Due to the continued disruptions in travel
behavior associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, ITE rates were used in lieu of conducting new
vehicle counts at comparable local sites. ITE Land Use 310 (Hotel) is defined as a place of lodging
and supporting facilities such as a full-service restaurant, bar, meeting rooms, ballrooms, and
convention facilities, which most closely matches the facilities included in the proposed Project.
ITE includes a reasonably large sample size of 28 studies for AM peak hour trip generation data
and 31 studies for PM peak hour trip generation data. Daily trip generation data includes a more
limited sample size of seven studies and may have a higher margin of error.
361
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
October 21, 2022
Page 6 of 12
ITE rates are typically derived from suburban settings that lack a mix of land uses within walking
distance; consequently, Fehr & Peers used the trip generation methodology known as MXD+ to
calibrate the trip generation estimates to local conditions and the proximity to adjacent
office/research & development (R&D) uses. The MXD+ method is based on a weighted average
of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s MXD Model and the National Cooperative Highway
Research Program’s Report 684 methodology. Additional reductions associated with the
proposed transportation demand management program were not included due to limited data
available for comparable hotel sites
As illustrated in Table 1, the project is projected to generate approximately 2,751 vehicle trips on
an average weekday with about 135 occurring in the AM peak hour and about 204 in the PM
peak hour. These trip generation estimates do not account for the proposed transportation
demand management program, which would further reduce the number of private vehicle trips to
the project.
The Project considers adding a ballroom in a future phase. Since ITE rates are based upon hotels
that typically include ballrooms, the trip generation estimates in Table 1 include travel demand
associated with the future ballroom. Consequently, Table 1 may present an overestimate of travel
demand without the ballroom.

Trip Distribution and Assignment
About half of Project vehicle travel is expected to occur within South San Francisco, Brisbane, San
Bruno, and the San Francisco International Airport. Figure 3 illustrates daily vehicle trip
distribution between traffic analysis zones (TAZs) for nearby clusters of hotels in South San
Francisco and Brisbane based on StreetLight data, which tracks anonymized movement using cell
phone location-based services data. Each site shares similar characteristics as business-oriented
hotels that illustrates comparable travel behavior, offering some combination of meeting rooms,
ballrooms, and restaurant/bar facilities, although most of these sites are generally older and
smaller hotels. Based on this analysis, the Project’s vehicle trip distribution is expected to be most
362
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
October 21, 2022
Page 7 of 12
heavily concentrated within the East of 101 Area (15 to 20 percent of trips), to/from the San
Francisco International Airport (10 to 15 percent), and elsewhere in South San Francisco, Brisbane,
or San Bruno (10 to 15 percent). The remaining 50 to 60 percent of trips would mostly be
distributed across San Francisco and San Mateo counties.
Figure 3: Vehicle Trip Distribution for Nearby Hotels in South San Francisco and Brisbane
363
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
October 21, 2022
Page 8 of 12
Vehicle trips would be concentrated along Oyster Point Boulevard to access US-101. Upon
reaching US-101, about 50 percent of trips are likely to travel to the south, 40 percent to the
north, and 10 percent continuing along Sister Cities Boulevard. Trips occurring fully within the
East of 101 Area are likely to use Gull Drive, Eccles Avenue, and Gateway Boulevard.
Vehicle Miles Traveled
The Project is a business-oriented hotel primarily serving nearby office/R&D uses and San
Francisco International Airport. Unlike nearby office/R&D land uses in the East of 101 Area that
typically generate vehicle miles, the Project would exhibit characteristics of a local-serving land
use rather than a regional destination. In its Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation
Impacts in CEQA, the State of California’s Office of Planning and Research notes that “local-
serving retail development tends to shorten trips and reduce VMT.”1 Hotels in the East of 101
Area appear to exhibit similar travel behavior as local-serving retail: as illustrated in Figure 3,
vehicle trip lengths for four nearby hotel clusters in South San Francisco and Brisbane tend to be
short and focused around nearby office/R&D uses and the San Francisco International Airport. As
shown in Table 2, the average vehicle trip length for nearby hotels is about four miles, compared
with an average trip length of about 13 miles for other land uses in the East of 101 Area.
Table 2. Trip Length Comparison
East of 101 Area Land Use Average Trip Length
Hotels 3.6-3.9 Miles
Office/R&D and Other Land Uses 12.9 miles
Source: StreetLight data and C/CAG Model
Hotels in the vicinity primarily serve nearby office/R&D uses and the San Francisco International
Airport, as opposed to generating new tourism-oriented or resort-oriented travel. Assuming a
similar travel pattern for the proposed Project as those existing in the vicinity, the Project would
not materially increase vehicle miles traveled and may help shorten trips for hotel guests that
would otherwise stay at hotels farther away. Although the City of South San Francisco does not
have a threshold of significance for VMT associated with hotel uses, the Project may be presumed
to have a less than significant impact to VMT based on the City’s screening criteria for local
serving land uses that do not result in a net increase in VMT.

Research, 2018 https://opr.ca.gov/docs/20180416-743_Technical_Advisory_4.16.18.pdf

Specific Plan & City Policy Consistency
Trip Generation
The Specific Plan EIR document published in 2011 estimated that the Specific Plan buildout would
result in 17,684 daily trips, of which 1,873 would occur during the AM peak hour and 2,127 would
occur during the PM peak hour (a net change of about 12,716 daily vehicle trips, 1,402 AM peak
hour trips, and 1,621 PM peak hour trips. As shown in Table 3, the Oyster Point Hotel is expected
to generate in total about 2,751 daily trips, including about 135 AM peak hour trips and 204 PM
peak hour trips. Although the Specific Plan EIR did not break down trip generation by land use,
the Oyster Point Hotel size is consistent with the Specific Plan, is therefore expected to generate a
comparable number of trips as the hotel identified in the Specific Plan EIR. Moreover, its trip
generation is well within the estimated trip generation envelope of the Specific Plan. The Specific
Plan and Project trip generation are summarized in Table 3.

Access & Circulation
Access and circulation illustrated in the Project’s conceptual site plan is consistent with the Oyster
Point Specific Plan. The site plan (Figure 4) includes driveways connecting to Marina Boulevard,
pedestrian connections to the street’s sidewalk, and a Bay Trail connection on its eastern edge as
identified in the Specific Plan.
Service, Delivery and Emergency Access
The Project would provide two onsite loading spaces for commercial deliveries and service
vehicles. The Project would primarily be served by small- to mid-sized box trucks, laundry trucks,
and garbage trucks (all typically 16 to 32 feet). Truck activity is expected to be spread throughout
the day depending on particular functions: for example, garbage trucks typically arrive early
morning, while laundry trucks typically arrive mid-morning (in coordination with housekeeping
services). Service and delivery vehicles would use a screened in loading dock in the middle of the
site. Trucks would enter via the easternmost driveway and conduct a three-point turn within the
parking lot to back into the loading dock. The site plan remains conceptual at the time of this
analysis, but it can be reasonably inferred that the proposed layout can accommodate such trucks
provided that truck turning templates are used to inform the design process.
Larger tractor-trailer vehicles are expected for restaurant delivery. These deliveries would primarily
occur overnight. Tractor-trailer trucks would back in from Marina Boulevard to access the loading
dock. Since the site is located on a relatively low volume street and these deliveries would occur
outside of peak hours, large truck deliveries would not pose conflicts with other modes. Truck
drivers may benefit from approaching the site from the westbound direction (via looping around
the Marina turnaround) to avoid reversing into their blind side when approaching the lot.
The City of South San Francisco requires five loading spaces for a 261,000 square foot commercial
land use. Based on the anticipated loading activity and distribution throughout the day, city
requirements likely exceed anticipated demand, and comparable hotels in the East of 101 Area
typically include one to two loading spaces. The proposed loading supply is expected to be
sufficient provided that hotel management staggers loading activities throughout the day.
Emergency vehicles would have access to all building entrances and facilities as well as the Bay
Trail connection along the east side of the Project.
The Project is therefore consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines for efficient service, delivery,
and emergency vehicle access.
Parking Access
Access for the proposed 232 parking spaces would be provided via three driveways along Marina
Boulevard. Each driveway would serve hotel, restaurant, and meeting room uses, with the
366
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
October 21, 2022
Page 11 of 12
westernmost driveway expected to serve as the primary entrance. Since these driveways are
located along the eastern edge of Marina Boulevard, they are likely to account for a majority of
vehicle traffic along the street and are unlikely to pose conflicts with the limited through traffic
that occurs. An analysis of the project’s parking supply is provided in the accompanying Parking
Management Plan.
Figure 5: Parking Layout
Bicycle Access
Bicyclists would access the site via the Project’s driveways. Bicycle parking would be provided per
City code and delineated with signage. The Project would provide 35 bicycle parking spaces,
which is consistent with City code. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines to
incorporate bicycle travel into projects.
Pedestrian Access
The Project would align with the new sidewalk and trail infrastructure in the Specific Plan Area.
Pedestrians would access the Project via a pathway to the lobby. Pedestrians would access the
South San Francisco Ferry Terminal, Commute.org shuttles, and planned SamTrans service by
crossing Marina Boulevard and walking approximately 300 feet to the east to reach the ferry
terminal entrance and bus/shuttle stop. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s
guidelines to support an interconnected and pedestrian-friendly development.
367
Oyster Point Hotel Transportation Assessment
October 21, 2022
Page 12 of 12
TDM-Supportive Site Plan Features
The Project would be subject to the City’s TDM Ordinance requirements and would incorporate
site plan elements consistent with these requirements as described above, including a passenger
loading area, direct pedestrian connections to sidewalks and transit facilities, access to bike lanes
and trails, and bike parking. The Project is consistent with the Specific Plan’s guidelines to
encourage alternative forms of transportation. A TDM Checklist is provided as an attachement.
EIR Transportation Impacts
The Oyster Point Specific Plan EIR identifies several significant impacts to transportation facilities,
including intersection delay, freeway delay, and offramp queues. Based on the analysis above, the
Project’s effects would be consistent with this analysis. Since the certification of the EIR, the State
of California has adopted new CEQA guidelines that that vehicle level of service (LOS) and similar
measures related to auto delay shall not be used as the sole basis for determining the significance
of transportation impacts. The Project would contribute toward Transportation Impact Fees to
address multimodal transportation needs around the Specific Plan Area.

monitoring protocols for the successful reuse of a former landfill site.
K. In exchange of the benefits to City described in the preceding Recital, together with
the other public benefits that will result from the Development of the Project, Developer will
receive by this Agreement assurance that it may proceed with the Project in accordance with the
“Applicable Law” (as defined in Section 1.6 of this Agreement), and therefore desires to enter into
this Agreement.
L. This agreement will eliminate uncertainty in planning and provide for the orderly
Development of the Project on the Property, facilitate progressive installation of necessary
improvements, provide for public services appropriate to the Development of the Project on the
Property, and generally serve the purposes for which development agreements under section
65864, et seq. of the California Government are intended.
M. The General Plan’s Land Use Element designates the Property as Business
Commercial. The Property is also located in the East of 101 Area Plan (and therein designated as
Commercial) and in the Oyster Point Specific Plan (“Specific Plan”) (depicted therein as a future
hotel site) and the Oyster Point Specific Plan Zoning District (Chapter 20.230 of the City of South
San Francisco Municipal Code). On March 23, 2011, after duly noticed public hearing and review
by the City of South San Francisco Planning Commission (“Planning Commission”), by
Resolution No. 46-2011, the City Council certified the Oyster Point Specific Plan and Phase 1
Project Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 20100022070) (“EIR”) in accordance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 2100 et seq. (“CEQA”) and the
CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, §§ 15000 et seq.). The EIR analyzed

(a) City shall perform, at City’s sole expense, each of the “City’s Post-Closing
Mitigation Measures” identified in Exhibit G to Exhibit B and in the manner set forth therein.
(i) Prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Project, City
shall prepare and implement an Operations and Maintenance Plan approved in writing by the

4.3 Protection of Vested Rights. City acknowledges that the vested rights provided
to Developer by this Agreement might prevent some City Law from applying to the Property or
prevailing over all or any part of this Agreement. City further acknowledges that Developer’s
vested rights to Develop the Property include the rights provided by the Project Approvals or the
Subsequent Approvals, which may not be diminished by the enactment or adoption of City Law.
City shall cooperate with Developer and shall consider undertaking actions mutually agreed by the
Parties as necessary to ensure that this Agreement remains in full force and effect. To the maximum
extent feasible in accordance with Applicable Law, City shall not require Developer to include a
secondary fire apparatus access road from a second public right of way to the Property.

forth in this Agreement, which the City acknowledges are essential for the Developer to perform
its obligations in Article 3. The City and Developer shall use good faith and diligent efforts to
communicate, cooperate and coordinate with each other during Development of the Project.
4.8 Transient Occupancy Tax Rebate. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 4.8
STILL UNDER NEGOTIATION- To help ensure the economic feasibility of the Project in light
of site constraints and added costs associated with development on the Property, City and
Developer shall enter into a separate Transient Occupancy Tax Rebate Agreement recorded in the
San Mateo County Recorder’s Office prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Project
granting to Developer a Transient Occupancy Tax Rebate (“TOT Rebate”) of TOT collected by
City from Developer in connection with its operation of the Project as a hotel in the form attached
as Exhibit F hereto. Such Agreement shall include the following terms:
(a) The City’s obligation to provide the TOT Rebate amount to Developer is
contingent upon Developer’s continuous operation of a 350-room full-service hotel facility which
is the quality of a “AAA” (or similar rating) four diamond or higher hotel Project at the Property.
City shall confirm such continued operation annually.
(b) The TOT Rebate amount provided by City to Developer shall be equal to
fifty (50) percent of the TOT collected from transient rentals of hotel rooms within the Project for
a period not to exceed fifteen (15) years beginning from the commencement of operations of the
Project as a hotel; provided, however, that the total TOT Rebate provided pursuant to this
Agreement shall not exceed forty-four million five hundred thirty thousand dollars ($44,530,000)
(the “Maximum TOT Rebate Amount”). For purposes of this Section 4.8, “commencement of
operations of the Project as a hotel” means the first day upon which the Project provides
accommodations to members of the general public via paid bookings. Upon request by City,
Developer shall provide documentation to verify the “commencement of operations of the Project
as a hotel.”
(c) Beginning from the commencement of operations of the Project as a hotel,
City shall pay the TOT Rebate to Developer every six (6) months in June and December, for the
preceding six (6) months based upon the actual TOT collected for that period from the Project
only.

Rebate Amount or 15 years since the commencement of operations of the Project as a hotel, the
City shall thereafter be entitled to receive one hundred (100) percent of all TOT revenue owed by
the Project to the City pursuant to SSFMC Chapter 4.20.
(e) City’s obligations under this Section 4.8 shall immediately cease if the
Project ceases to operate as a hotel for more than thirty (30) days. For purposes of this subsection,
the Project shall not be deemed to have ceased operations in the event of temporary closures due
to a Force Majeure event as described in Section 10.3. In addition, the City’s obligations shall
immediately cease under this Section 4.8 if Developer fails to pay City's Participation in the Net

members, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, invitees, or licensees acting
on behalf of Developer (collectively, “Developer Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any
and all Claims suffered by Developer Indemnitees, to the extent caused by:
(i) Any material misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant
made by City in this Agreement, provided that City's obligations under this Section 4.9 shall not
apply to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant actually known to and waived
by Developer prior to the Effective Date;
(ii) Claims brought by any third party to the extent caused by the Pre-
Existing Property Conditions; provided, however, City's obligations hereunder shall not apply to
the extent that such third party claims are caused by the acts or negligent omissions of Developer
or any Developer lndemnitee, including without limitation: (i) Developer’s design, construction,
operation, use, and/or maintenance of the Project; (ii) Developer’s performance of or failure to
perform Developer’s Post-Closing Mitigation Measures set forth in Exhibit F to Exhibit B; (iii)

Agreement; and (vi) failure by Developer to provide any notice, disclosure or other information
required by Applicable Laws in connection with the presence or potential presence of Pre-Existing
Property Conditions at or otherwise relating to the Project, provided, however, that City’s
obligations to Developer Indemnitees under this Section 4.9 shall not be excused by the mere
discovery by a Developer Indemnitee of a Pre-Existing Property Condition;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, City’s obligations under this
Section 4.9 shall not apply to any Claims for any alleged lost profits, lost opportunity, or alleged
consequential, speculative, contingent or punitive damages.
ARTICLE 5
COOPERATION - IMPLEMENTATION
5.1 Processing Application for Subsequent Approvals. By approving the Project
Approvals, City has made a final policy decision that the Project is in the best interests of the
public health, safety and general welfare. Accordingly, City shall, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, not use its discretionary authority in considering any application for a
Subsequent Approval to revisit, frustrate, or change the policy decisions or material terms reflected
by the Project Approvals or otherwise to prevent or delay Development of the Project. Instead, the
Subsequent Approvals shall be deemed to be tools to implement those final policy decisions.
5.2 Timely Submittals By Developer. Developer acknowledges that City cannot
expedite processing Subsequent Approvals until Developer submits complete applications on a
timely basis. Developer shall use its best efforts to (i) provide to City in a timely manner any and
all documents, applications, plans, and other information necessary for City to carry out its
obligations hereunder; and (ii) cause Developer’s planners, engineers, and all other consultants to
provide to City in a timely manner all such documents, applications, plans and other necessary
required materials as set forth in the Applicable Law. It is the express intent of Developer and City
to cooperate and diligently work to obtain any and all Subsequent Approvals.
5.3 Timely Processing By City. Upon submission by Developer of all appropriate
applications and processing fees for any Subsequent Approval, City shall, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, promptly and diligently commence and complete all steps necessary to act on
the Subsequent Approval application including, without limitation: (i) providing at Developer’s
expense and subject to Developer’s request and prior approval, reasonable overtime staff
assistance and/or staff consultants for planning and processing of each Subsequent Approval
application; (ii) if legally required, providing notice and holding public hearings; and (iii) acting
on any such Subsequent Approval application. City shall ensure that adequate staff is available,
and shall authorize overtime staff assistance as may be necessary, to timely process any such
Subsequent Approval application.
5.4 Denial of Subsequent Approval Application. The City may deny an application
for a Subsequent Approval only if such application does not comply with this Agreement or
Applicable Law.
5.5 Other Government Permits. At Developer’s sole discretion and in accordance
with Developer’s construction schedule, Developer shall apply for such other permits and

Those additional terms do not impact nature of development.
018708.0001 4885-1412-4080.3 #82388640_v1 21
approvals as may be required by other governmental or quasi-governmental entities in connection
with the Development of, or the provision of services to, the Project. City, at Developer’s expense,
shall cooperate with Developer in its efforts to obtain such permits and approvals and shall, from
time to time, at the request of Developer, use its reasonable efforts to assist Developer to ensure
the timely availability of such permits and approvals.
5.6 Assessment Districts or Other Funding Mechanisms.
(a) Existing Fees. As set forth in Section 3.2, above, the Parties understand and
agree that as of the Effective Date the fees, exactions, and payments listed in Exhibit D are the
only City fees and exactions that apply to the Project, subject to the credits and exemptions that
may be set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement or identified on Exhibit D and subject to Section
5.6(b) below. Except for those fees and exactions listed in Exhibit D, City is unaware of any
pending efforts to initiate, or consider applications for new or increased fees, exactions, or
assessments covering the Property, or any portion thereof that would apply to the Project prior to
the Effective Date.
(b) Application of Fees Imposed by Outside Agencies. The City agrees to
exempt Developer from any and all fees, including but not limited to, development impact fees,
which other public agencies request the City to impose at City’s discretion on the Project or
Property after the Effective Date through the expiration of the Term. Notwithstanding the previous
sentence, in the event that another public agency requests that the City impose a fee, including a
development impact fee on all new development and land use projects on a citywide (or East of
101 Area Plan-wide) basis, then any such fee duly adopted by the City shall apply to the Project.
This Section 5.6(b) shall not prohibit the City from imposing on Developer any fee or obligation
that is imposed by a regional agency in accordance with state or federal obligations implemented
by the City in cooperation with such regional agency, or that is imposed by the State of California.
ARTICLE 6
STANDARDS, LAWS AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING THE PROJECT

rights secured pursuant to other Applicable Laws, including without limitation, vested rights
secured in connection with a vesting tentative subdivision map pursuant to the California
Subdivision Map Act (Gov’t. Code §§ 66410 et seq.). Nothing in this section shall be deemed to
eliminate or diminish the requirement of Developer to obtain any required Subsequent Approvals,
or to eliminate or diminish Developer’s right to have its applications for any Subsequent Approval
timely processed by City in accordance with this Agreement and Applicable Law.
6.2 Permitted Uses Vested by This Agreement. The vested permitted uses of the
Property; the vested density and intensity of use of the Property; the vested maximum height, bulk,

018708.0001 4885-1412-4080.3 #82388640_v1 22
vested terms and conditions of Development applicable to the Project, shall be as set forth in the
vested Project Approvals and, as and when they are issued (but not in limitation of any right to

permitted uses for the Project shall include those uses listed as “permitted” in the Project
Approvals, as they may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement.
6.3 [Intentionally Omitted]
6.4 Adoption of Reach Code. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 6.4 STILL
UNDER NEGOTIATION- City acknowledges and understands that Developer is planning for and
relying upon the ability of restaurants within the Project to be permitted to utilize natural gas for
all food cooking and preparation functions. Developer is further relying on its ability to utilize
natural gas for commercial laundry facilities within the hotel and for the hotel boiler system and
spa heating system. Any amendments to SSFMC Title 15 or to any other provision of the City’s
Code, adopted after the Effective Date of this Agreement, that would preclude Developer’s use of
natural gas for the hotel operations in the manner described in this Section 6.4 shall not apply to
the Project.
6.5 Uniform Codes. Subject to Section 6.4, City may apply to the Property, at any time
during the Term, then current Uniform Building Code and other uniform construction codes, and
City’s then current design and construction standards for road and storm drain facilities, provided
any such uniform code or standard has been adopted and uniformly applied by City on a citywide
basis and provided that no such code or standard is adopted for the purpose of preventing or
otherwise limiting Development of all or any part of the Project.
6.6 No Conflicting Enactments. Developer’s vested right to Develop the Project shall
not be diminished by City approval (whether by action of the City Council or by initiative,
referendum or other means) of any ordinance, resolution, rule, regulation, standard, directive,
condition or other measure (each individually, a “City Law”) that is in conflict with Applicable
Law or this Agreement or that reduces the rights or assurances provided by this Agreement.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any City Law shall be deemed to conflict with
Applicable Law or this Agreement or reduce the Development rights provided hereby if it would
accomplish any of the following results, either by specific reference to the Project or as part of a
general enactment which applies to or affects the Project:
(a) Change any land use designation or permitted use of the Property;
(b) Limit or control the availability of public utilities, services, or facilities, or
any privileges or rights to public utilities, services, or facilities (for example, water rights, water
connections or sewage capacity rights, sewer connections, etc.) for the Project, provided that
Developer has complied with all applicable requirements for receiving or using or receiving public
utilities, services, or facilities;
(c) Limit or control the location of buildings, structures, grading, or other
improvements of the Project in a manner that is inconsistent with or more restrictive than the

limitations included in the Project Approvals or the Subsequent Approvals (as and when they are
issued);
(d) Limit or control the rate, timing, phasing, or sequencing of the Development
of all or any part of the Project in any manner;
(e) Result in Developer having to substantially delay Development of the
Project or require the issuance of additional permits or approvals by the City other than those
required by Applicable Law;
(f) Establish, enact, increase, or impose against the Project or Property any
fees, taxes (including without limitation general, special and excise taxes but excluding any
increased local (city or county) sales tax or increases city business license tax), assessments, liens
or other monetary obligations (including generating demolition permit fees, encroachment permit
and grading permit fees) other than those specifically permitted by this Agreement or other
connection fees imposed by third party utilities;
(g) Impose against the Project any condition, dedication or other exaction not
specifically authorized by Applicable Law; or
(h) Limit the processing or procuring of applications and approvals of
Subsequent Approvals.
6.7 Initiatives and Referenda; Other City Actions Related to Project.
(a) If any City Law is enacted or imposed by initiative or referendum, or by the
City Council directly or indirectly in connection with any proposed initiative or referendum, which
City Law would conflict with Applicable Law or this Agreement or reduce the Development rights
provided by this Agreement, such Law shall only apply to the Project to the extent it would not
diminish Developer’s vested rights to Develop the Project.
(b) Except as authorized in Section 6.10, without limiting the generality of any
of the foregoing, no moratorium or other limitation (whether relating to the rate, timing, phasing
or sequencing of Development) affecting subdivision maps, building permits or other entitlements
to use that are approved or to be approved, issued or granted within the City, or portions of the
City, shall diminish Developer’s vested rights to Develop the Project.
(c) To the maximum extent permitted by law, City shall cooperate with
Developer and shall undertake such actions as may be necessary to ensure this Agreement remains
in full force and effect.
(d) Developer reserves the right to challenge in court any City Law that would

392
11/3/2022 DRAFT – TERMS STILL UNDER NEGOTIATION
This draft does not include language related to some additional terms still under negotiation.
Those additional terms do not impact nature of development.
018708.0001 4885-1412-4080.3 #82388640_v1 24
City agrees to use the EIR and MMRP in connection with the processing of any Subsequent
Approval to the maximum extent allowed by law and not to impose on the Project any mitigation
measures other than those specifically imposed by the Project Approvals, EIR, and MMRP, or
specifically required by CEQA or other Applicable Law, except as provided for in this Section 6.8.
The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not limit or expand the operation or scope of CEQA,
including Public Resources Code section 21166 and California Code of Regulations, title 14,
section 15162, with respect to City’s consideration of any Subsequent Approval. Consistent with
CEQA, a future, additional CEQA document may be prepared for any Subsequent Approval only
to the extent required by Public Resources Code section 21166 and California Code of Regulations,
title 14, section 15162, unless otherwise requested in writing by Developer. Developer specifically
acknowledges and agrees that, under Public Resources Code section 21166 and California Code
of Regulations, title 14, section 15162, City as lead agency is responsible and retains sole discretion
to determine whether an additional CEQA document must be prepared, which discretion City
agrees it shall not exercise unreasonably or delay.
6.9 Future Legislative Actions.
(a) In the event that, following the Effective Date, City revises, modifies,
updates, or amends the land use designation(s) of the General Plan in effect on the Effective Date,
the Specific Plan in effect on the Effective Date, or of the East of 101 Area Plan in effect on the
Effective Date, that are applicable to the Property, or the zoning designation(s) applicable to the
Property and in effect on the Effective Date, such updates or amendments shall not diminish
Developer’s vested rights to Develop the Project or the Property, but no provision of this
Agreement shall limit Developer’s right to apply for any land use entitlement(s) for the Property
that are consistent with, or authorized by, such update(s) or amendment(s). Developer
acknowledges, however, that the amended or updated policies identified in the immediately
preceding sentence might include requirements for permitted development that would be in
addition to any obligations of Developer under this Agreement, and that those additional
requirements would apply to Developer if Developer applies for any land use entitlement(s) for
the Property that are consistent with, or authorized by, any revision, modification, update, or
amendment contemplated by this subsection (a) of Section 6.9 of this Agreement. No provision of
this Agreement shall limit or restrain in any way Developer’s full participation in any and all public
processes undertaken by the City that are in any way related to revisions, modifications,
amendments, or updates to the General Plan, the Specific Plan, the East of 101 Area Plan, or the
City of South San Francisco Municipal Code.
(b) Developer acknowledges that, if it applies for any land use entitlement(s)
for the Property that are consistent with, or authorized by, any revision, modification, update, or
amendment contemplated by subsection (a) of this Section 6.9 of this Agreement, and that would
allow development of the subject parcel(s) in a manner that is inconsistent with, or not authorized
by, the Project Approvals, then City may be required to conduct additional CEQA review with
respect to such application in accordance with Section 6.8 of this Agreement, and, if such
application is finally approved by the City and becomes effective, such approval shall
automatically be vested under this Agreement only to the extent such approval is consistent with,
or authorized by, the Project Approvals. By way of example, if (following any required CEQA

Those additional terms do not impact nature of development.
018708.0001 4885-1412-4080.3 #82388640_v1 25
compliance) such effective approval were to authorize Development of a structure with a floor
area ratio of 2.0, but the Project Approvals would only authorize Development of a structure with
a floor area ratio of 1.0, then Developer would automatically have the vested right to Develop said
structure with a floor area ratio of 1.0, and would automatically have the non-vested right to
Develop that same structure with a floor area ratio of 2.0 (unless, following such approval, this
Agreement is amended to vest Developer’s right to Develop such structure with a floor area ratio
of 2.0).
(c) City agrees that, if Developer applies for any land use entitlement(s) for the
Property that are inconsistent with, or not authorized by, the Project Approvals, then:
(i) such event shall not be a basis for amending or revisiting the terms
of the Agreement, unless Developer also applies for an amendment of this Agreement pursuant to
subsection (b) of Section 7.2 of this Agreement (i.e., a non-Administrative Agreement
Amendment), and shall not be a basis for imposing new exactions, mitigation requirements,
conditions of approval, or any other requirement of, or precondition to, Developer’s exercise of its
Development rights vested under this Agreement; and
(ii) the only exactions, mitigation requirements, or conditions of
approval City may impose on such land use entitlement shall be limited to those exactions,
mitigation requirements, or conditions of approval authorized under federal, state, or local laws in
effect at the time such application is deemed complete, and shall only be imposed with respect to
those uses, densities, intensities, and other Development standards applicable to the subject
parcel(s) that are inconsistent with, or not authorized by, the Project Approvals.
6.10 Life of Development Approvals, and Permits. The term of any permit or other
land use entitlement approved as a Project Approval or Subsequent Approval shall automatically
be extended for the longer of the Term (including any extensions) or the term otherwise applicable
to such Project Approval or Subsequent Approval if this Agreement is no longer in effect. The
Term of this Agreement and the term of Project Approval or Subsequent Approval shall not include
any period of time during which a Development moratorium (including, but not limited to, a water
or sewer moratorium or water and sewer moratorium) or the actions of other public agencies that
regulate land use, Development or the provision of services to the land, prevents, prohibits or
delays the construction of the Project or a lawsuit involving any such Development approvals or
permits is pending.
6.11 State and Federal Law. As provided in Government Code section 65869.5, this
Agreement shall not preclude the application to the Project of changes in laws, regulations, plans
or policies, to the extent that such changes are specifically mandated and required by changes in
state or federal laws or regulations. Not in limitation of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement
shall preclude City from imposing on Developer any fee specifically mandated and required by
state or federal laws and regulations. In the event of any changes required by state or federal laws
or regulations, the Developer and City shall meet and confer in good faith to determine what, if
any, modifications to this Agreement and/or the Project Approvals would allow the Project and
City to comply with such state or federal law or regulation while preserving to the maximum extent
feasible the spirit and intent of the Parties in this Agreement and the Project Approvals.

6.12 Prevailing Wage. Developer and its contractors and agents shall comply with
California Labor Code section 1720 et seq., and regulations adopted pursuant thereto, to the extent
applicable to the Project (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), and shall be responsible for carrying out the
applicable requirements of such law and regulations. Developer shall submit to City a plan for
monitoring payment of prevailing wages and shall implement such plan at Developer’s expense.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Developer shall indemnify, defend
(with counsel approved by City, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and hold the
City, and its elected and appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, consultants, and
contractors (for purposes of this Section 6.12 collectively, the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and
against all liability, loss, cost, expense (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs of
litigation), claim, demand, action, suit, judicial or administrative proceeding, penalty, deficiency,
fine, order, and damage (for purposes of this Section 6.12, all of the foregoing collectively
“Claims”) which directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, are caused by, arise in connection with,
result from, relate to, or are alleged to be caused by, arise in connection with, or relate to, the
payment or requirement of payment of prevailing wages in connection with this Agreement
(including without limitation, all claims that may be made by contractors, subcontractors or other
third party claimants pursuant to Labor Code sections 1726 and 1781), the failure to comply with
any state or federal labor laws, regulations or standards in connection with this Agreement,
including but not limited to the Prevailing Wage Laws, or any act or omission of Developer related
to this Agreement with respect to the payment or requirement of payment of prevailing wages,
whether or not any insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any such
Claims. It is further agreed that the City does not and shall not waive any rights against Developer
which it may have by reason of this indemnity and hold harmless agreement because of the
acceptance by the City, or Developer’s deposit with the City, of any of the insurance policies
described in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 6.12 shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement and the issuance of a Certificate of Completion for the
Project. Developer’s indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 6.12 shall not apply to
Claims arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitees.
6.13 Timing and Review of Project Construction and Completion. Except as
expressly provided in the Project Approvals and this Agreement, Developer shall have the vested
right to Develop the Project in such order, at such rate and at such times as the Developer deems
appropriate in the exercise of its sole business judgment. In particular, and not in any limitation of
any of the foregoing, since the California Supreme Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City
of Camarillo, 37 Cal.3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties therein to consider, and expressly
provide for, the timing of Development resulted in a later-adopted initiative restricting the timing
of Development to prevail over such Parties' agreement, it is the desire of the Parties hereto to
avoid that result.

ARTICLE 7
AMENDMENT
7.1 Project Amendments. To the extent permitted by state and federal law, any Project
Approval or Subsequent Approval may, from time to time, be amended or modified in the
following manner:
(a) Administrative Project Amendments. Upon the written request of
Developer for an amendment or modification to a Project Approval or Subsequent Approval, the
City's Chief Planner or his/her designee shall determine: (i) whether the requested amendment or
modification is minor when considered in light of the Project as a whole; and (ii) whether the
requested amendment or modification is consistent with this Agreement and Applicable Law. If
the Chief Planner or his/her designee finds that the proposed amendment or modification is minor,
consistent with this Agreement and Applicable Law, and will result in no new significant impacts
not addressed and mitigated in the EIR, the amendment shall be determined to be an
“Administrative Project Amendment” and the Chief Planner or his/her designee may, except to
the extent otherwise required by law, approve the Administrative Project Amendment without
notice and public hearing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, lot line adjustments,
minor alterations in vehicle circulation patterns or vehicle access points, location of parking stalls
on the site, number of required parking stalls if City development standards allow, substitutions of
comparable landscaping for any landscaping shown on any final development plan or landscape
plan, substitutions of comparable building design/façade materials for any building design/façade
material shown on any final development plan or Precise Plan, variations in the location of
structures that do not substantially alter the design concepts of the Project, location or installation
of utilities and other infrastructure connections or facilities that do not substantially alter the design
concepts of the Project, and minor adjustments to the Property diagram or Property legal
description shall be treated as Administrative Project Amendments. Any requested amendment
seeking modification of or deviation from the performance or development standards contained in
the Municipal Code and which would otherwise require a discretionary approval by the City
Council, Planning Commission, or other formal approval body shall not be treated as an
Administrative Project Amendment.
(b) Non-Administrative Project Amendments. Any request by Developer for an
amendment or modification to a Project Approval or Subsequent Approval which is determined
not to be an Administrative Project Amendment as set forth above shall be subject to review,
consideration and action pursuant to the Applicable Law and this Agreement.
7.2 Amendment of this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended from time to
time, in whole or in part, by mutual written consent of the Parties hereto or their successors in
interest, as follows:
(a) Administrative Agreement Amendments. Any amendment to this
Agreement which does not substantially affect (i) the Term, (ii) permitted uses of the Property,
(iii) conditions, terms, restrictions, or requirements for subsequent discretionary actions, (iv) the
density or intensity of use of the Property or the maximum height or size of proposed buildings,
or (v) monetary contributions by Developer, shall be considered an “Administrative Agreement

Amendment” and shall not, except to the extent otherwise required by law, require notice or public
hearing before the parties may execute an amendment hereto. Administrative Agreement
Amendments may be approved by the City Manager or, in the sole discretion of the City Manager,
the City Manager may refer any proposed Administrative Agreement Amendment to the City
Council for consideration and approval or denial.
(b) Other Agreement Amendments. Any amendment to this Agreement other
than an Administrative Agreement Amendment shall be subject to recommendation by the
Planning Commission (by advisory resolution) and approval by the City Council (by ordinance)
following a duly noticed public hearing before the Planning Commission and City Council,
consistent with Government Code sections 65867 and 65867.5.
(c) Amendment Exemptions. No amendment of a Project Approval or
Subsequent Approval, or a Subsequent Approval shall require an amendment to this Agreement.
Instead, any such matter automatically shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Project and
vested under this Agreement.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER AND NOTICE
8.1 Assignment. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 8.1 STILL UNDER
NEGOTIATION-
(a) Absent an express signed written agreement between the Parties to the
contrary, neither Developer nor City may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this
Agreement without the express written consent of the other Party. No permitted assignment of any
of the rights or obligations under this Agreement shall result in a novation or in any other way
release the assignor from its obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision
hereof, Developer may assign this Agreement without the consent of City to one or more entities
controlled by, or under common control with, or owned in whole or in part by Developer (an
“Affiliate”), provided, Developer shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement.
As used in this Section 8.1, “controlled” shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the
power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies, whether through the ownership
of voting securities, partnership interest, contracts (other than those that purport to transfer
Developer’s interest to a third party not specifically identified in this subsection) or otherwise.
8.2 Transfer Agreements. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 8.2 STILL UNDER
NEGOTIATION-
(a) In connection with the Transfer or assignment by Developer of all or any
portion of the Project (other than a transfer or assignment by Developer to an Affiliate), Developer
and the transferee shall enter into a written agreement regarding the respective interests, rights,
and obligations of Developer and the transferee in and under the Agreement and the Project
Approvals (a “Transfer Agreement”). Such Transfer Agreement shall include an executed
Assignment and Assumption of Rights and Obligations, as set forth in Exhibit I, and may (i) release
Developer from obligations under the Agreement or the Project Approvals that pertain to that

portion of the Project being transferred, as described in the Transfer Agreement, provided that the
transferee expressly assumes such obligations; (ii) transfer to the transferee vested rights to
improve that portion of the Project being transferred; and (iii) address any other matter deemed by
Developer to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the transfer or assignment.
(b) Prior to any such Transfer or assignment, Developer will seek City’s prior
written consent thereof, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. At the time
Developer requests City’s written consent, Developer shall submit to the City information
describing transferee’s development experience and financial resources. City may refuse to give
consent only if, in light of the proposed transferee’s reputation and financial resources, such
transferee would not, in City’s reasonable opinion, be able to perform the obligations proposed to
be assumed by such transferee, including Buyer’s Post-Closing Mitigation Measures (contained in
Exhibit F to Exhibit B of this Agreement). To assist the City Manager in determining whether to
provide consent to a transfer or assignment, the City Manager may request from the transferee
(directly or through Developer) additional reasonable documentation of transferee’s understanding
of and ability and plan to perform the obligations proposed to be assumed by transferee, including
without limitation obligations specifically identified in this Agreement, the Order No. 00-46 issued
by the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board to the City on June 21, 2000, the Final
Closure Plan and Postclosure Maintenance and Monitoring Plan each dated September 8, 2017,
Buyer’s Post-Closing Mitigation Measures (contained in Exhibit F to Exhibit B of this
Agreement), Project Approvals, the EIR and MMRP, the General Plan, the TDM Plan, the Specific
Plan, and the East of 101 Area Plan. To assist the City Manager in determining whether to consent
to a transfer or assignment, the City Manager may also require one or more representatives of the
transferee to meet in person to demonstrate to the City Manager’s reasonable satisfaction that the
transferee understands and intends and has the ability to perform the obligations intended to be
assumed, including without limitation the obligations identified in the immediately preceding
sentence. City shall have sixty(60) days to request any of the information and meetings identified
above, as well as request any additional information required in order to review any request for
consent to a Transfer, and shall provide a determination as to whether to provide its consent within
ninety (90) days of the date the request is received. Such determination will be made by the City
Manager and will be appealable by Developer to the City Council. For any Transfer of all of the
Property, the Developer and assignee shall enter into an assignment and assumption agreement in
substantially the form set forth in Exhibit I. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement
to the contrary, each of following Transfers are permitted and shall not require City consent under
this Section 8.2:
(i) Any Transfer for financing purposes to secure the funds necessary
for construction and/or permanent financing of the Project, including any financing transactions,
such as sale-leaseback or grant of a mortgage or deed of trust, for purposes of financing
development of the Project; or any foreclosure thereof or deed-in-lieu with respect thereto;
(ii) An assignment of this Agreement to an Affiliate;
(iii) Dedications and grants of easements and rights of way required in
accordance with the Project Approvals;

018708.0001 4885-1412-4080.3 #82388640_v1 30
(iv) any change, directly or indirectly, of the equity or ownership
interests of Developer or any transferee which individually or cumulatively with prior changes
does not result in a change in control of Developer or transferee; or
(v) Any leases, subleases, licenses, easements, or other occupancy
agreements.
(c) Any Transfer Agreement shall be binding on Developer, City, and the
transferee. Once approved by the Developer, the transferee, and City, and then upon recordation
of any Transfer Agreement in the Official Records of San Mateo County, Developer shall
automatically be released from those obligations assumed by the transferee therein.
(d) Developer shall be free from any and all liabilities accruing on or after the
date of any assignment or transfer with respect to those obligations assumed by a transferee
pursuant to a Transfer Agreement. No breach or default hereunder occurring after the assignment
or Transfer by any person succeeding to any portion of Developer’s obligations under this
Agreement shall be attributed to Developer.
8.3 Notice of Compliance Generally. Within thirty (30) days following any written
request which Developer may make from time to time, City shall execute and deliver to Developer
(or to any party requested by Developer) a written “Notice of Compliance,” in recordable form,
duly executed and acknowledged by City, that certifies:
(a) This Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect, or if there have
been modifications hereto, that this Agreement is in full force and effect as modified and stating
the date and nature of such modifications;
(b) There are no current uncured defaults under this Agreement or specifying
the dates and nature of any such default; and
(c) Any other information reasonably requested by Developer.
The failure to deliver such a statement within such time shall constitute a conclusive
presumption against City that this Agreement is in full force and effect without modification except
as may be represented by the Developer and that there are no uncured defaults in the performance
of the Developer, except as may be represented by the Developer. Developer shall have the right
at Developer’s sole discretion, to record the Notice of Compliance.
ARTICLE 9
COOPERATION IN THE EVENT OF LEGAL CHALLENGE
9.1 Cooperation. In the event of any administrative, legal, or equitable action or other
proceeding instituted by any person not a party to the Agreement challenging the validity of any
provision of the Agreement, or any Project Approval or Subsequent Approval, the Parties will
cooperate in defending such action or proceeding. City shall promptly (within five business days)
notify Developer of any such action against City. If City fails promptly to notify Developer of any

legal action against City or if City fails to cooperate in the defense, Developer will not thereafter
be responsible for City’s defense. The Parties will use best efforts to select mutually agreeable
legal counsel to defend such action, and Developer will pay compensation for such legal counsel
(including City Attorney time and overhead for the defense of such action), but will exclude other
City staff overhead costs and normal day-to-day business expenses incurred by City. Developer’s
obligation to pay for legal counsel will extend to attorneys’ fees incurred on appeal. In the event
City and Developer are unable to select mutually agreeable legal counsel to defend such action or
proceeding, each party may select its own legal counsel and Developer will pay its and the City’s
attorneys’ fees and costs. Developer shall reimburse the City for all reasonable court costs and
attorneys’ fees expended by the City in defense of any such action or other proceeding or payable
to any prevailing plaintiff/petitioner.
9.2 Reapproval.
(a) If, as a result of any administrative, legal, or equitable action or other
proceeding, all or any portion of the Agreement or the Project approvals are set aside or otherwise
made ineffective by any judgment in such action or proceeding (“Judgment”), based on
procedural, substantive or other deficiencies (“Deficiencies”), the Parties will use their respective
best efforts to sustain and reenact or readopt the Agreement, and/or the Project approvals, that the
Deficiencies related to, as follows, unless the Parties mutually agree in writing to act otherwise:
(i) If any Judgment requires reconsideration or consideration by City
of the Agreement or any Project approval, then the City will consider or reconsider that matter in
a manner consistent with the intent of the Agreement and with Applicable Law. If any such
Judgment invalidates or otherwise makes ineffective all or any portion of the Agreement or Project
approval, then the Parties will cooperate and will cure any Deficiencies identified in the Judgment
or upon which the Judgment is based in a manner consistent with the intent of the Agreement and
with Applicable Law. City will then consider readopting or reenacting the Agreement, or the
Project approval, or any portion thereof, to which the Deficiencies related.
(ii) Acting in a manner consistent with the intent of the Agreement
includes, but is not limited to, recognizing that the Parties intend that Developer may undertake
and complete Development of the Project as described in the Agreement, and adopting such
ordinances, resolutions, and other enactments as are necessary to readopt or reenact all or any
portion of the Agreement or Project approvals without contravening the Judgment.
(b) The Parties agree that this Section 9.2 shall constitute a separate agreement
entered into concurrently, and that if any other provision of this Agreement, or the Agreement as
a whole, is invalidated, rendered null, or set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties
agree to be bound by the terms of this Section 9.2, which shall survive invalidation, nullification,
or setting aside.

ARTICLE 10
DEFAULT; REMEDIES; TERMINATION
10.1 Defaults. Any failure by either Party to perform any term or provision of the
Agreement, which failure continues uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following written
notice of such failure from the other Party (unless such period is extended by mutual written
consent), will constitute a default under the Agreement. Any notice given will specify the nature
of the alleged failure and, where appropriate, the manner in which said failure satisfactorily may
be cured. If the nature of the alleged failure is such that it cannot reasonably be cured within such
30-day period, then the commencement of the cure within such time period, and the diligent
prosecution to completion of the cure thereafter, will be deemed to be a cure within such 30-day
period. Upon the occurrence of a default under the Agreement, the non-defaulting party may
institute legal proceedings to enforce the terms of the Agreement or, in the event of a material
default, terminate the Agreement. If the default is cured, then no default will exist and the noticing
party shall take no further action.
10.2 Termination. If City elects to consider terminating the Agreement due to a material
default of Developer, then City will give a notice of intent to terminate the Agreement and the
matter will be scheduled for consideration and review by the City Council at a duly noticed and
conducted public hearing. Developer will have the right to offer written and oral evidence prior to
or at the time of said public hearings. If the City Council determines that a material default has
occurred and is continuing, and elects to terminate the Agreement, City will give written notice of
termination of the Agreement to Developer by certified mail and the Agreement will thereby be
terminated sixty (60) days thereafter.
10.3 Enforced Delay; Extension of Time of Performance. Subject to the limitations
set forth below, performance by either party hereunder shall not be deemed to be in default, and
all performance and other dates specified in this Agreement shall be extended, where delays are
due to: war; insurrection; strikes and labor disputes; lockouts; riots; floods; earthquakes; fires;
casualties; acts of God; acts of the public enemy; terrorism; epidemics; pandemics; quarantine
restrictions; governmental restrictions or priority; litigation and arbitration, including court delays;
legal challenges to this Agreement, the Project Approvals, Subsequent Approvals, or any other
approval required for the Project or any initiatives or referenda regarding the same; environmental
conditions that have not been previously disclosed or discovered or that could not have been
discovered with reasonable diligence that delays the construction or Development of the Property
or any portion thereof; unusually severe weather but only to the extent that such weather or its
effects (including, without limitation, dry out time) result in delays that cumulatively exceed thirty
(30) days for every winter season occurring after commencement of construction of the Project;
acts or omissions of the other party; or acts or failures to act of any public or governmental agency
or entity (except that acts or failures to act of City shall not excuse performance by City);
moratorium; or a Severe Economic Recession (each a “Force Majeure Delay”). An extension of
time for any such cause shall be for the period of the enforced delay and shall commence to run
from the time of the commencement of the cause, if Notice by the party claiming such extension
is sent to the other party within sixty (60) days of the commencement of the cause. If Notice is
sent after such sixty (60) day period, then the extension shall commence to run no sooner than

sixty (60) days prior to the giving of such Notice. Times of performance under this Agreement
may also be extended in writing by the mutual agreement of City and Developer. Developer’s
inability or failure to obtain financing or otherwise timely satisfy shall not be deemed to be a cause
outside the reasonable control of the Developer and shall not be the basis for an excused delay,
unless such inability, failure or delay is a direct result of a Force Majeure Delay or a Severe
Economic Recession. “Severe Economic Recession” means a decline in the monetary value of all
finished goods and services produced in the United States, as measured by initial quarterly
estimates of United States Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) published by the United States
Department of Commerce Bureau of Economic Analysis (and not subsequent monthly revisions),
lasting more than four (4) consecutive calendar quarters. Any quarter of flat or positive GDP
growth shall end the period of such Severe Economic Recession.
10.4 Legal Action. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 10.4 STILL UNDER
NEGOTIATION-
(a) Either Party may institute legal action to cure, correct, or remedy any
default, enforce any covenant or agreement in the Agreement, enjoin any threatened or attempted
violation thereof, and enforce by specific performance or declaratory relief the obligations and
rights of the Parties thereto. Except as provided in Section 10.1 and Section 10.4(b) below, the
sole and exclusive remedies for any default or violation of the Agreement will be specific
performance or declaratory relief. In any proceeding brought to enforce the Agreement, the
prevailing Party will be entitled to recover from the unsuccessful Party all costs, expenses and
reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing party in the enforcement proceeding.
(b) In the event that, following Close of Escrow (as defined in the PSA) for the
Property, this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.2, and such termination occurs prior
to commencement of construction for the Project, then the City shall have the right to reenter and
take possession of the Property, and to revest in the City the estate of the Developer in the Property
or portion thereof. Upon revesting in the City of title to the Property, or portion thereof, the City
shall promptly use its best efforts to resell it. For purposes of this subsection, “commencement of
construction” means [INSERT DEFINITION] Upon any sale or contract for development, the
proceeds shall be applied as follows:
(i) First, to reimburse the City for any reasonable costs it incurs in
revesting the estate managing or selling the Property or portion thereof, including but not limited
to amounts to discharge or prevent liens or encumbrances arising from any acts or omissions of
the Developer;
(ii) Second, to reimburse the City for damages to which it is entitled
under this Agreement by reason of the Developer's default;
(iii) Third, to the Developer up to the sum of the amount of the purchase
price paid to the City by the Developer pursuant to the PSA for the Property which has reverted to
the City and the reasonable cost (incurred after close of escrow) of the improvements the
Developer has placed on the Property and such other reasonable costs Developer has incurred after

close of escrow directly in connection with development of the Project which has reverted to the
City (for purposes of this subsection “reasonable costs” means [INSERT]); and
(iv) Fourth, any balance to the City.
10.5 Periodic Review.
(a) Conducting the Periodic Review. Throughout the Term, at least once every
twelve (12) months following the Effective Date of this Agreement, City shall review the extent
of good-faith compliance by Developer with the terms of this Agreement. This review (“Periodic
Review”) shall be conducted by the Chief Planner or his/her designee and shall be limited in scope
to compliance with the terms of this Agreement pursuant to Government Code section 65865.1.
At least ten (10) days prior to the Periodic Review, and in the manner prescribed in Section 11.9
of this Agreement, City shall deposit in the mail or transmit electronically to Developer a copy of
any staff report and documents to be relied upon in conducting the Periodic Review and, to the
extent practical, related exhibits concerning Developer’s performance hereunder.
(b) Developer Submission of Periodic Review Report. Annually commencing
one year from the Effective Date and continuing through termination of this Agreement, Developer
shall submit a report to the Chief Planner stating the Developer’s good faith compliance with terms
of the Agreement.
(c) Good Faith Compliance Review. During the Periodic Review, the Chief
Planner shall set a meeting to consider the Developer’s good-faith compliance with the terms of
this Agreement. Developer shall be permitted an opportunity to respond to City’s evaluation of
Developer’s performance, either orally at the meeting or in a supplemental written statement, at
Developer’s election. Such response shall be made to the Chief Planner. At the conclusion of the
Periodic Review, the Chief Planner shall make written findings and determinations, on the basis
of substantial evidence, as to whether or not Developer has complied in good faith with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. The decision of the Chief Planner shall be appealable to the City
Council. If the Chief Planner finds and determines that Developer has not complied with such
terms and conditions, the Chief Planner may recommend to the City Council that it terminate or
modify this Agreement by giving notice of its intention to do so, in the manner set forth in
Government Code sections 65867 and 65868. The costs incurred by City in connection with the
Periodic Review process described herein shall be borne by Developer.
(d) Failure to Properly Conduct Periodic Review. If City fails, during any
calendar year, to either: (i) conduct the Periodic Review or (ii) notify Developer in writing of
City’s determination, pursuant to a Periodic Review, as to Developer’s compliance with the terms
of this Agreement and such failure remains uncured as of December 31 of any year during the
Term, such failure shall be conclusively deemed an approval by City of Developer’s compliance
with the terms of this Agreement for the period of time since the last Periodic Review.
10.6 California Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State of California. Any action to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall be
filed and heard in the Superior Court of San Mateo County, California.

10.7 Resolution of Disputes. With regard to any dispute involving Development of the
Project, the resolution of which is not provided for by this Agreement or Applicable Law,
Developer shall, at City’s request, meet with City. The parties to any such meetings shall attempt
in good faith to resolve any such disputes. Nothing in this Section 10.7 shall in any way be
interpreted as requiring that Developer and City and/or City’s designee reach agreement with
regard to those matters being addressed, nor shall the outcome of these meetings be binding in any
way on City or Developer unless expressly agreed to by the parties to such meetings.
10.8 Attorneys’ Fees. In any legal action or other proceeding brought by either Party to
enforce or interpret a provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to reasonable
attorneys’ fees and any other costs incurred in that proceeding in addition to any other relief to
which it is entitled.
10.9 Hold Harmless. Developer shall hold City and its elected and appointed officers,
agents, employees, and representatives harmless from claims, costs, and liabilities for any personal
injury, death, or property damage which is a result of, or alleged to be the result of, the construction
of the Project, or of operations performed under this Agreement by Developer or by Developer’s
contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees, whether such operations were performed by
Developer or any of Developer’s contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees. Nothing in this
Section 10.9 shall be construed to mean that Developer shall hold City harmless from any claims
of personal injury, death or property damage arising from, or alleged to arise from, any gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of City, its elected and appointed representatives,
offices, agents and employees.

11.10 Mortgagee Protection. -TERMS UNDER THIS SECTION 11.10 STILL
UNDER NEGOTIATION- The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit
Developer, in any manner, at Developer’s sole discretion, from encumbering the Property or any
portion thereof or any improvement thereon by any Mortgage. City acknowledges that the lenders
providing such financing may require certain Agreement interpretations and modifications and
agrees upon request, from time to time, to meet with Developer and representatives of such lenders
to negotiate in good faith any such request for interpretation or modification provided such
interpretation or modification is consistent with the intent and purpose of this Agreement. Any
Mortgagee of the Property shall be entitled to the following rights and privileges:
(a) Neither entering into this Agreement nor a breach of this Agreement shall
defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any Mortgage on the Property made in good
faith and for value, unless otherwise required by law.
(b) If City timely receives a request from a Mortgagee requesting a copy of any
notice of default given to Developer under this Agreement, City shall provide a copy of that notice
to the Mortgagee within ten (10) days of sending the notice of default to Developer. Each
Mortgagee shall have the right during the same period available to Developer to cure or remedy,
or to commence to cure or remedy, the event of default claimed or the areas of noncompliance set
forth in City’s Notice of Breach, plus additional time not to exceed 90 days, as reasonably
determined by the City Manager, to allow Mortgagee sufficient time to make the election to cure
and thereafter prosecute such cure to completion. If a Mortgagee shall be required to obtain title
or possession in order to cure any default or breach, then the time to cure shall be tolled so long as
the Mortgagee is diligently attempting to obtain possession, including by appointment of a receiver
or foreclosure, and provides City upon written request from time to time reasonable evidence of
such diligent efforts; provided the tolling shall not exceed 90 days or such longer period as City
may agree in its sole discretion. A delay or failure by the City to provide such notice required by
this Section shall extend, for the number of days until notice is given, the time allowed to the
Mortgagee for cure, but shall not extend Developer’s time to cure.
(c) Any Mortgagee who comes into possession of the Property, or any portion
thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the Mortgage or deed in lieu of such foreclosure, shall take the
Property, or portion thereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, no Mortgagee shall have an obligation or duty under this
Agreement to perform any of Developer’s obligations or other affirmative covenants of Developer
hereunder, or to guarantee such performance; provided, however, that to the extent that any
covenant to be performed by Developer is a condition precedent to the performance of a covenant
by City, the performance thereof shall continue to be condition precedent to City’s performance

BUYER’S POST-CLOSING MITIGATION MEASURES
Buyer shall perform, at Buyer’s sole expense, each of Buyer’s Post-Closing Mitigation Measures
identified in this Exhibit F. The measures identified herein are not intended as Buyer’s sole post-
closing obligations with respect to the Pre-Existing Property Conditions and shall not reduce or
otherwise diminish Buyer’s other obligations under the Agreement with respect to such conditions
or otherwise. Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the meaning prescribed
in the Agreement.
A. Site Security
1. Provide site security for the Property and all building(s) at the Property. Security features
should be designed to prevent unauthorized access by the general public. Building security
features may include barriers and/or restricted access signage and alarm systems.
B. Engineering Measures - Fill /Capping/Construction Activities
1. Install a minimum of nine (9) feet of clean fill or as otherwise engineered by a qualified
civil engineer and subject to City Public Works approval and building plan check within
the building footprint area above the landfill cap. Outside of the building footprint, utility
trenches shall be located at least twelve (12) inches above the top of the landfill cap within
clean fill, except to the extent necessary to connect to existing utility connections. Any
utility connections within the cap or below the cap shall occur in trenches with a protective
clay layer and clean backfill as engineered by a qualified civil engineer subject to City
Public Works approval and building plan check.
2. Install a geotextile fabric (as a marker) on top of the erosion resistant layer (i.e. the landfill
cap) so the top of the cap can be identified during future construction activities.
3. Install all landscaping and irrigation systems at elevations within the newly-installed fill
layer above the cap to protect cap integrity.

4. Grade/maintain the Property to prevent surface water accumulation. Install and maintain
survey monuments on the Property to monitor landfill settlement. Quarterly inspections are
required to ensure monuments are intact and usable and any repairs or replacement are
performed as necessary. Installation of at least two permanent survey monuments are
required so that the location and elevation of refuse, final cover, and landfill gas system
components can be determined throughout the post-closure period. Additionally,
monuments will be surveyed every five years and settlement maps will be produced
throughout the post-closure period or until settlement has stopped.
C. Engineering Measures - MMS/Building
1. Design, install and operate a methane mitigation and monitoring system (MMS) approved
in advance by the Water Board and City in building structures. The MMS shall meet the
requirements of Title 27 CCR Sections 20931 and 21190, for structures on landfilled areas,
and of those listed in the PCMMP. The MMS shall also be designed in general accordance
with methane mitigation standards used by Los Angeles County Public Works' Gas Hazard
Mitigation Policy and Standards
(https://dpw.lacounty.gov/epd/swims/onlineservices/methane-mitigation-standards.aspx).
At a minimum, the MMS shall include a vapor barrier membrane (VBM) combined with a
horizontal collection and venting system below the VBM. The venting system vents vapors
through vertical riser piping that extends from beneath the building to above the roof level.
Mechanical blowers will be on standby for use as an active venting system in the event
elevated methane levels are detected by electronic sensors installed at various locations
within the buildings. The MMS shall also be designed to mitigate potential vapors of other
contaminants, including VOCs.
2. Design and install trench dams in utility trenches to prevent migration of methane and/or
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into buildings.
3. All building utilities, methane membrane and collection pipes should be connected/adhered
to underside of building foundation slab or installed in a manner that prevents damage from
potential future ground settlement.
4. Utilities should be designed to accommodate potential future ground settlement in areas
outside of building footprint.
5. Perform all required inspections, maintenance, monitoring and reporting in connection
with the approved MMS meeting the requirements of Title 27 CCR Sections 20931 and
21190, for structures on landfilled areas, the requirements listed in the PCMMP and other
applicable requirements and regulations. Provide copies of all reports to the City.
D. Site Maintenance, Monitoring and Reporting
1. Maintain all hardscapes and softscapes at the Property. Hardscapes are building slabs, slab
on grade, roadways, sidewalks and any other hard surfaces over the final landfill cover

associated with softscape. Inspect all final cover at the Property, including buildings,
hardscape and softscape at the Property monthly during the wet season and quarterly during
the dry season. In the event corrective action is warranted, promptly implement any
necessary corrective action.
2. Prepare and implement an Operation and Maintenance (“O&M”) Plan for the Property,
approved in writing by the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board (“Water
Board”) to address routine inspections, maintenance and reporting for the: a) landfill cap;
b) methane and VOC collection, monitoring and alarm systems; and c) groundwater,
surface water and leachate monitoring systems, as required.
3. Prepare annual maintenance and monitoring reports relating to implementation of the
O&M Plan for the Property, methane and VOC monitoring plan, surface water sampling
monitoring plan, and elevation monitoring plan, as required. Submit maintenance and
monitoring reports to stakeholders.
4. Prepare and implement a methane and volatile organic compound (“VOC”) monitoring
plan for the Property, including the installation of any necessary monitoring wells,
approved in writing by the Water Board that describes the frequency and procedures for
monitoring in structures and perimeter areas of the site and required corrective actions if
monitoring results exceed established thresholds. Perform required reporting and provide
copies of all reports to the City. Quarterly monitoring is required within subsurface vaults,
utilities and any other subsurface structures where gas may potentially build up. At a
minimum, a portable landfill gas meter will be used for subsurface structure monitoring.
5. Prepare and implement an elevation monitoring plan for the Property.
6. Review and properly update all maintenance and monitoring plans and ensure that
corrective actions are implemented in a timely manner.
E. Emergency Response Measures
1. Prepare and implement a post-closure Emergency Response Plan (ERP) for the Property
outlining the procedures to be followed in the event of an emergency (such as fires,
explosions, earthquakes, floods, vandalism, surface drainage problems, waste releases,
etc.). Procedures for dealing with each type of emergency should be included in the ERP.
Multiple agencies (fire, police, City, etc.) should be involved with preparation of the plan.
2. Require annual (at a minimum) updates and training for the ERP.
3. For planned or emergency subsurface activities, implement the ERP, assess damage and
perform corrective action as necessary.
