Pleasanton Gateway— Environmental Checklist <br /> • Valley Avenue /Santa Rita Road <br /> The project applicant/developer will pay the City's Traffic Impact Fee towards <br /> their fair share of improvements. No additional improvements are required to <br /> mitigate cumulative impacts. <br /> • Northbound I- 680 /Bernal Avenue Entrance Ramp <br /> The project applicant/developer will widen the northbound I- 680 /Bernal Avenue <br /> entrance ramp from one lane to two lanes and the westbound approach on <br /> Bernal Avenue. Construction and occupancy of the commercial /retail portion <br /> will be allowed to proceed absent widening the entrance ramp. <br /> • Bernal AvenueNalley Avenue Intersection <br /> The project applicant /developer shall widen the existing westbound/ <br /> southbound left -turn lane from one -. two two -lanes and modify the west side of <br /> the intersection to allow pedestrian crossings. Construction and occupancy of <br /> the commercial /retail portion will be allowed to proceed absent this intersection <br /> improvement. <br /> • Neighborhood Traffic Calming <br /> The project developer will work with the City of Pleasanton to develop a <br /> neighborhood traffic calming program to identify locations where traffic calming <br /> devices consistent with those outlined in the City of Pleasanton Neighborhood <br /> Traffic Calming Prograrn (NTCP) would be appropriate if studies completed <br /> after the project — Phase 1 and Phase II — is in operation shows significant cut - <br /> through traffic through the adjoining residential neighborhood. <br /> The payment of fees and the construction of these mitigation measures will <br /> achieve an LOS D at these locations. Therefore, this would be a less - than- <br /> significant impact. <br /> c) A supermarket in this area of the City would serve to reduce the number of cross- <br /> town trips on weekdays and weekends for members of the community seeking <br /> these services. Therefore, this would be a less - than - significant impact. <br /> d -e) Public street access is provided directly from Bernal Avenue and Valley Avenue. <br /> All access driveways and internal circulation areas will be designed to City <br /> standards. The project will provide pedestrian sidewalks and linkages, seating, <br /> etc., through out the development and to off -site developments including the City <br /> parkland. Therefore, this would be a less than - significant - impact. <br /> f) The project provides a total of 2,396 parking spaces including 48 handicapped <br /> accessible parking, which conforms to City parking standards. For a commercial/ <br /> office uses, the Pleasanton Municipal Code requires 2,372 parking spaces. <br /> Shared parking will be provided between the office and commercial uses. A <br /> project condition of approval will require the construction of adequate parking for <br /> the commercial uses with the first project phase. Therefore, this would be a less- <br /> than-significant-impact <br /> Page 49 of 52 Pleasanton Gateway Initial Study August 2, 2010 <br />
