mental guidelines and regulations and that it has reviewed and considered the

mental impacts:

Council .

mental impacts exist and will be implemented and will reduce any significant
environmental effects to an insignificant level.

has become available since the approval of the prior EIR. The Agency hereby finds
that the environmental effects of the approval of the Downtown Specific Plan and
the adoption of the amendment to the Main-Pier Redevelopment Plan are similar
enough to warrant the same treatment in an EIR, and that the prior EIR will ade-
quately cover the impacts of the adoption of the amendment to the Main-Pier
Redevelopment Plan.
Section 8: This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 18th day of July 1983.
