3.1.1 Introduction This Section Describes the Aesthetic and Visual
Paraiso Springs Resort Draft Environmental Impact Report 3.1 Aesthetics and Visual Resources 3.1 AESTHETICS AND VISUAL RESOURCES 3.1.1 Introduction This section describes the aesthetic and visual resource conditions at the project site and in the project vicinity; presents the regulatory framework applicable to the proposed project; and discusses the potential aesthetic impacts that could result from implementation of the proposed project. The primary aesthetic concerns associated with the proposed project are potential changes in aesthetic character of the project site; impacts to public viewsheds; and/or obstruction of existing views. The project-specific information and analysis within this section is primarily based on project plans and site reconnaissance and photo documentation of the project site performed by RBF Consulting during the spring of 2007, and a subsequent site visit and documentation by EMC Planning Group in the fall of 2012. 3.1.2 Environmental Setting Local Visual Resources The project site consists of about 235 acres nestled in the mouth of a canyon extending westward into the foothills located at the western terminus of Paraiso Springs Road on the eastern slope of the Sierra de Salinas Foothills in the Salinas Valley, approximately seven miles west of the City of Greenfield. Elevations at the project site range from approximately 1,000 feet in the southern portion of the project site to slightly over 2,400 feet along the ridgelines. Views from the project site consist of scenic ridgelines north, west, and south, and the expansive Salinas Valley to the east. Surrounding land uses currently consist of agricultural uses and grazing, as well as several single-family residences located along Paraiso Springs Road located east of the project site. -
