Finding: Formation and implementation of assessment districts <br /> to provide for system improvements will mit~.gate impacts. <br /> <br /> Fact: Assessment district improvements will provide for <br /> freeway interchange improvements, freeway and local street <br /> widening, traffic control signals, and similar improvements <br /> to acconm~odate increased traffic levels in the North Pleasanton <br /> area. <br /> <br /> Finding: Transit and transportation systems mamagement <br /> programs will reduce the traffic levels during commute <br /> hours. <br /> <br /> Fact: Certain companies within the project will be required <br /> to participate in a program of vanpooling, carpooling, and <br /> alternative work-hours in order to reduce the dependence on <br /> the single-occupancy vehicle and the traffic congestion. <br /> <br /> Finding: Phasing of project buildout in conjunction with <br /> necessary improvements will reduce the impacts of increased <br /> traffic levels. <br /> <br /> Facts: The phasing of construction and corresponding <br /> traffic-related improvements will provide for gradual <br /> accommodation of capacity needs and prevent congestion <br /> beyond acceptable service levels. <br /> <br /> Finding: Economic, social, and evironmental considerations <br /> make further reductions in the scale of the project infeasible. <br /> <br /> Facts: The scale of the project is necessary in maintaining <br /> the marketability of the site in order to provide increased <br /> employment opportunities to the local con~nunity and to <br /> increase the tax base of the City. <br /> <br />8o Significant Effect: Increase in traffic levels will create <br /> unacceptabl~ n~ise' levels affecting existing residential <br /> areas~ <br /> <br /> Finding: The use of construction techniques, insulation <br /> materials, and soundwalls will reduce noise to acceptable <br /> levels~ <br /> <br /> Facts: The project developers will be required to conduct <br /> accoustical analyses in the residential areas to determine <br /> and fund necessary noise mitigation measures. <br /> <br /> Finding: Economic and social considerations make elimination <br /> of traffic-related noise increases infeasible. <br /> <br /> Facts: The scale and types of uses proposed for the project <br /> are necessary in maintaining the marketability of the site <br /> in order to provide increased employment opportunities to <br /> <br /> <br />
