when they get to my signal, then I have to turn it green for them and it stops the main flow of traffic. I'd rather have them on my collector streets. So it kind of goes through residential but no more than if they were on Valley Avenue going through residential. It's not really through - residential as I envision it. Commissioner Allen: You talked about peak hours being around 100 and the rule of thumb. How about total daily traffic like on a Saturday? How many more trips for 100 homes will there be? Tassano: We go 10 for single family homes, so 1,000. Commissioner Allen: So I'm looking at the Lund Ranch traffic summary. Essentially, this is twice as much traffic as Lund Ranch, more or less? Tassano: Yes, because they were about 43 and this is 95 Commissioner Allen: So it's tough, I mean its more cars in a busy area Tassano: Yes, and I think one of the things that I look at as a traffic engineer is, it doesn't have to be developed, but we anticipate something to be developed. So even though it is zoned as agricultural —those two properties —I have no vision that that was staying as agricultural. So in my model that has been around since 2000 or so, we've always had it as commercial right, because that's what it's also zoned as, commercial. Is that right? Hagen: The General Plan Amendment? Tassano: Yes, and so I had commercial on there and when we went through and did the Housing Element, we switched that and we put the residential units on there, and that's what we had them do in study because it was 2014 and really close into the Housing Element. I think we had just approved it, but the volume is pretty much the same so we left it as that. So that's what we had them analyze it at. So, yes it is new trips, but it is not unanticipated trips. Commissioner O'Connor: How many trips did you have when it was industrial? Tassano: So it was commercial, which is retail, and it was 65,000 square feet which is a little over I think about 200 peak hour trips. It's a little over 300 for retail, but the distribution pattern has changed a bit so you have to kind of watch that. Commissioner O'Connor: That was peak hour? Tassano: Yes, it was p.m. peak hour. Commissioner O'Connor: How many per day trips? Tassano: I don't know. I don't memorize the daily stuff because.... Commissioner O'Connor: You don't have a number for square feet? Tassano: You mean like a magic number for daily? PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, April 27, 2016 Page 21 of 43
