1 miramar beach resort and bungalows project 2 - Santa Barbara ...

1 this opinion that the court explicitly stated that the
2 modified project, even though 500,000 square feet larger
3 with a different mix had fewer significant impacts than
4 the original project but for police services.
5 MR. PHILLIPS: How do they know?
6 MR. GHIZZONI: It's based on the 390-page --
7 so I think that the point out of Mani Brothers is bigger
8 alone does not mean EIR, but in that case, bigger but
9 with fewer significant impacts allowed an addendum on
10 only a one-topic supplemental EIR.
11 MS. GOTTSDANKER: Which, in your opinion,
12 would be parallel to exactly what's happened here is
13 that, although we have bigger -- more square footage in
14 the existing project, we've got taller buildings in the
15 proposed project than we had, it was determined by
16 staff and, I'm assuming, your office that we only needed
17 to prepare the historical EIR section or the addendum to
18 do -- to relate to just the historical issues?
19 So it's parallel in that way; correct? We've
20 got a bigger project, but that doesn't necessarily mean
21 that there's more environmental impacts, but because
22 this project was proposing to impact our
23 environmental -- or our historical fabric, that would be
24 parallel to the police situation with the Mani Brothers?
