Title

Jail Replacement Project

Description

The project, which was previously approved by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors on a MND, has been modified to move the site of the replacement jail to the location of the current South Main Jail, reduce the size of the building to 243,000 sq. ft., and reduce the inmate capacity to 535. An addendum to the previously adopted MND was prepared to determine if it would require subsequent or supplemental environmental review per the conditions described in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines. The modified project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, either because of the project modifications or with respect to the circumstances under which the project would be undertaken. Impact determinations remain the same, and mitigation measures identified to reduce significant impacts to a less-than-significant level would be reapplied to the modified project.
