NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND
ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council has considered the Addenduxn prepared
for the Ramsgate applications. The City Council finds and deternunes that the
document was prepared in conformance with CEQA and is the appropriate
environmental document for the project, based upon the following findings:
1. Addendum No. 3 to the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact
Report (FSEIR) for Ramsgate is complete, contains all required
informarion, and has been completed in compliance with California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), utilizing criteria set forth in Section
15164 of the CEQA Guidelines.
2. Addendum No. 3 is the appropriate document because changes and
modifications proposed by the project do not change the conclusions
stated in the previous EIR.
3. The modifications do not introduce any new issues about the significant
envirorunental effects of the proposed project, nor will they result in any
new significant unavoidable project impacts beyond those previously
identified.
4. Substantial changes have not occurred with respect to those
circumstances under which the proposed project will be developed.
5. The City is not aware of any new information of substantial importance,
which was previously unlrnown or could not have been known at the time
that the 1989 FSEIR was adopted, which show the project to have
significant effects that were not described in the previous EIR. The
technical reports and assessments prepared far the proposed project do
not conclude that greater impacts would result with the proposed project,
or reveal any new information that was not previously considered.
6. The updated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program establishes a
mechanism and procedures for implementing and verifying the
implementation of and compliance with the project design features and
mitigation measures pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21081.6.
