This decision and subsequent action by the City Council requires the review of 41 the Twin Lakes StationEAW and all comments submitted by state, county and/or local agencies 42 and citizens. In this instance, only state agencies returned comments on the EAW. The Record 43 of Decision, including Finding of Fact and responses to comments, is provided as Attachment B 44 and would be made part of the Resolution requested for adoption. 45 S TAFF R ECOMMENDATION: 46 Based on the information contained in the EAWRecord of Decision, City staff has determined 47 there is no potential for significant environmental effects from the proposed Twin Lakes Station 48 redevelopment project. All issues identified by the EAW can be addressed as part of the 49 development process and nothing out of the ordinary was discovered that would require further 50 review via an Environmental Impact Statement. Staff is therefore recommending adoption of a 51Resolution, memorializing the Twin Lakes StationEAW Record of Decision, making a negative 52declaration as to theneed for anEnvironmental Impact Statement. 53 UGGESTED C ITY C OUNCIL A CTION S 54 ADOPT a RESOLUTION memorializing the Twin Lakes Station EAW Record of Decision, 55 finding that an Environmental Impact Statement will not be necessary. 56 If the Roseville City Council believes further environmental review (i.e. an EIS) should be 57 completed, then the Council should provide direction to the Community Development 58 Department on said reasons and direct staff to prepare findings consistent with those reasons.
