alternatives or modifications to the proposed project or may deny the project if the City determines that reasonable mitigation measures are insufficient to mitigate the project's impacts. 9.5 Detailed alternatives analysis. When the Responsible Official finds that despite the incorporation of reasonable mitigation measures, the proposal is likely to have a significant adverse environmental impact on level of service or other aspects of the transportation network, the Responsible Official shall issue a Determination of Significance. If the sole issue is traffic, the applicant shall prepare a limited scope EIS on traffic. If there are other probable significant adverse environment impacts, the EIS will be scoped accordingly. The EIS scope with respect to transportation shall contain an analysis of all reasonable courses of action and mitigation measures, including TDM measures, that would avoid or otherwise mitigate the probable significant environmental impact related to transportation. On the basis of this analysis, the Responsible Official, upon review and analysis by the City Engineer, shall determine whether reasonable mitigation measures are sufficient to mitigate the identified significant adverse transportation impact. 9.6 Applicant's options. At any time in the project review process, the applicant may: 1. Choose not to proceed with the project. 2. Implement measures identified by the City to address the adverse transportation impacts. 3. Propose revisions to the project to avoid or reduce the identified impacts and document the revisions in accordance with the City's project review procedures (including EMC 20.01.160 if applicable) and section 13 of this chapter. The modifications must be approved by the City Engineer and the Responsible Official. Possible measures include van/car pooling programs, pedestrians and bicycle improvements, incentives to encourage public transportation ridership, or other measures that, in the opinion of the City Engineer and the Responsible Official, would adequately address the transportation impact. 9.7 Table 2 summarizes the requirements for payment of fees for transportation system improvements to mitigate impacts of proposed projects, as specified in sections 10 and 11 of this chapter.
