Traffic fees (including pass-through fees collected by the City and transferred to the CMA) have been imposed by the City to fund needed traffic improvements. The Project will be subject to these fees and therefore will offset its contribution towards the need for such traffic improvements. 2021 10x Genomics Traffic Study In March 2021, a traffic study was developed for the 10x Genomics project located just south of Stoneridge Mall Road between Springdale Avenue and Stoneridge Mall Road. This study included an assessment of the 10x Genomics project which proposed to replace the previously occupied Regency Plaza Shopping Center, consisting of approximately 163,500 square feet of retail uses, with a three multi-story building of office and industrial uses. These proposed uses include 207,000 SF of office use, 154,000 square-feet of research and development use, and 20,000 square feet of packaging and warehouse distribution use with a parking garage and surface parking lot. The study included traffic generated by the Workday project, the 2012 Housing Element Supplemental EIR, and other nearby approved developments. Because this study was undertaken after CEQA prohibited using road capacity to determine environmental impacts, it did not address such issues as CEQA impacts. However, the study included “non-CEQA findings and recommendations” that address level of service and queuing. The study determined that future development with the 10x Genomics would cause a queuing deficiency at the intersection of Stoneridge Drive and Springdale Avenue for the eastbound and southbound left-turn movements. This 10X Genomics project was approved subject to a condition requiring the applicant to modify the southbound approach to two southbound left-turns and one shared southbound through/right turn lane and to extend the eastbound left-turn pocket to provide 200 feet of storage. A queuing deficiency was identified at the intersection of Stoneridge Drive and Stoneridge Mall Road and the project would extend the existing southbound through/right-turn lane along Stoneridge Mall Road at McWilliams Lane to Genomics Place. The traffic study also determined that the project would cause the intersection of Stoneridge Mall Road and Genomics Place to operate at an unacceptable LOS E during the PM peak hour in the Existing Plus Project scenario and as part of a condition of approval, the project would be required to convert the westbound approach to two left turn lanes and one shared through/right turn lane. To address Near-Term and Cumulative scenarios, the project was required to pay local and regional transportation fees to fund improvements at intersections operating at unacceptable LOS with and without project.
