Mitigation for potentially significant traffic impacts. ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: Public Works 12. Along with the submittal of any development plan, prior to approval of improvement plans, or with the application for a lot line adjustment or parcel merger, the following shall occur: a. Provide fully executed dedication for Engle Road to arterial standards and for Mountain Ridge Drive (the midsection collector) to collector standards for the full frontage of the area within the GPA request. Dedications shall include sufficient widths for expanded intersections and additional areas for landscaping as directed by the City Engineer. Submit a current title report with the dedication documents. If a tentative subdivision map over the entire GPAlZC area is submitted, dedication can be provided with the map. The phasing of the construction of these improvements will be addressed at the development stage. b. This GPAlZC area is too small to support it's own storm drainage sump. The City will allow no more than one sump per 80 acres; therefore, this GPAlZC area must be included within the drainage area of adjoining property. Submit a comprehensive drainage study of the entire drainage area, to be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. The study shall show the development's proportionate share of the necessary ultimate storm drainage facilities. The developer shall participate in the development of a Planned Drainage Area, or shall provide some other method for the construction of the ultimate facilities satisfactory to the City Engineer.

The developer shall be responsible for the initial extension of the sewer line to serve the property. This sewer line must necessarily be sized to serve a much larger area that the project area. The City is willing to aid the developer in the formation of a Planned Sewer Area andlor an Assessment District to provide a mechanism for the reimbursement of oversizing costs to the developer. Additionally, this area is shown in the City's master sewer study as being served by the future Plant 4. However, the sewer system serving this area can be temporarily lifted into the future Plant 3 Curnow/Romero trunk line. d. In order to preserve the permeability of the sump and to prevent the introduction of sediments from construction or from storm events, all retention and detention basins (sumps) shall have a mechanical device in the storm drain system to remove or minimize the introduction of oil, grease, trash, and sediments to the sump. This device shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer, and shall provide the greatest benefit to the storm drain system with the least maintenance cost. For orderly development. 13. The entire area covered by this General Plan Amendment shall be included in the Consolidated Maintenance District.

For orderly development. 14. Payment of the proportionate share of the cost of the median for the arterial frontage of the property within the GPAlZC request is required prior to recordation of any map or approval of any improvement plan for the GPAlZC area, whichever occurs first. For orderly development. 15. Access to the project area from the nearest fully improved public roadway is provided by a sub- standard road. With the development of the project area, approved, improved access to the site must be provided on Engle Road. The required improvements shall be half width improvements meeting City design standards for an arterial road. If it becomes necessary to obtain any off site right of way and if the developer is unable to obtain the required right of way, then he shall pay to the City the up-front costs for eminent domain proceedings and enter into an agreement and post security for the purchase and improvement of said right of way. For orderly development. 16. The Ashe Road, Romero Road, and Taft Highway crossings of the Farmer's Canal need widening. The Mountain Ridge Drive crossing of the Farmer's Canal and the "gap" in improvements for Engle Road need to be constructed. Developer shall pay their proportionate share of the cost and shall aid in the formation of a Major Bridge and Thoroughfare District for the widening of the crossings. For orderly development. 17. The traffic study prepared by Mcintosh and Associates for a 203 unit single family dwelling residential development producing approximately 204 PM peak trips has been reviewed by the traffic Division and it appears to be adequate. For impacted intersections and segments subject to fair share improvements (refer to Tables 6 & 8 from the project traffic study), prior to subdivision updated estimates shall be submitted and approved. Unit costs used in the traffic study may be outdated due to recent rises in construction costs and shall be updated as appropriate. Applicant shall participate in the improvements required on a pro-rata, fair share basis, prior to the issuance of building permits, based upon the approved estimates. Based upon the study the following mitigation measures would be appropriate: a. Local Mitigation: i. Stine Rd & Taft Hwy (SR 119), Add 1 EBT, 1 NBR, 1.28% share ii. Taft Hwy (SR 119): Gosford Rd to Ashe Rd, Add 2 lanes, 0.28% share (*) iii. Taft Hwy (SR 119): Ashe Rd to Stine Rd, Add 2 lanes, 0.50% share (*) (..) Adjacent GPA, based on newer model run, showed the need for the added two lanes along Taft Hwy, which is not covered by the RTIF. The current RTIF shows widening to a 4-1ane facility, new model shows the need for a 6- lane facility. Percent share shown based upon Mcintosh study's project volumes share of the higher model volumes. b. Regional Transportation Impact Fee: Prior to the issuance of building permits, the project applicant shall participate in the RTIF program by paying the adopted residential fee in place at time of development.
