X recreational opportunities? X building? x Phasing the 540 square foot expansion is not necessary or practical. The proposed location of the expansion is compatible with the existing use. The scale of the expansion is appropriate for the existing use. The site already contains the Girls' Club as well as some agricultural use. Alternate uses are not needed nor recommended. The proposed expansion is needed at this time and the funds are available. Girls' Club expansion should be located on same site as existing Girls' Club use. A no project alternative would leave the site as it currently exists with an undersized Girls' Club facility trying to serve Carlsbad's growing population. -6- I P I MAYBE - NO 22. Yandatorv findinas of sianificance - a. Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, or curtail the diversity in the environment? X b. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the dis- advantage of long-term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) c. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (A project may impact on two or more separate resources where the impact on each resource is relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant.) x X d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? X 111. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION The proposed expansion of the Girls' Club may create an increase in the demand for new onsite parking. One condition of approval will be to prqvide nine paved parking spaces, based on the number of Girls' Club staff and the fact that most club users will not drive to the site but rather will be driven and dropped off there, walk there, or bike there. -7- f? b r' I IV. DETERMINATION (To Be Completed By The Planning Department) On the basis of this initial evaluation: v X I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. Declaration will be proposed. I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
