In 1993, the City’s planning department published a draft environmental impact report (EIR). In April 1994, after modifications, revisions and inclusion of new mitigation measures, the City’s planning department recommended certification of the final EIR. In late 1994 and early 1995, the planning commission held hearings on the Project after the Committee to Preserve Lincoln Place and the LPTA appealed the planning commission’s recommendation. After the hearings, the planning commission directed its staff to clarify the Project conditions and EIR mitigation measures to “prevent the issuance of demolition permits unless each of the households affected by such permit are afforded the opportunity to relocate to a comparable or better vacant unit on site at no cost either for the move or in additional rent above the amount paid [o]n the unit scheduled for demolition. . . . Thus, every household at the Project site .. . [is] guaranteed the right to remain at Lincoln Place in a comparable or better unit at their then current rent unless they choose voluntarily to move from the site (in which event the Applicant will still be obliged to provide relocation assistance).”
