Document Description
The project would amend the LDC to establish the 3 development scenarios under which a deviation from the sensitive biological resources regulations may be approved outside of the Coastal Zone (including vernal pools) - Essential Public Project Option allows for a wetland deviation to enable the City to implement necessary public facilities and infrastructure projects including, but not limited to, specific design/construction projects identified in a community or implementing plan and identified on the Essential Public Projects List, maintenance of existing infrastructure, and projects initiated on the by the City to meet state and federal regulatory requirements. The Economic Viability Option would allow a deviation to preserve an applicant's right to an economically viable use of property, only for circumstances not of the applicant's making. It provides criteria for the preparation of an economic analysis to determine the economic viability of a project with and witout the deviation. The existing wetland regulations do not allow considertation of a biologically superior option to mitigate impacts. This amendment would allow a deviation from the LDC under the Biologically Superior Option if an alternative project or design achieves a superior biological result biological result through either project design or extraordinary mitigation.
