Noise created by cheering at baseball games would be adequately reduced by the more that 800-foot open space buffer between the fields and the nearest residential neighborhood. Amplified sound for announcing ball games is planned to consist of temporary tabletop systems, until potentially more permanent facilities can be provided in future phases of the Community Park. Amplified sound is proposed to be directed downward toward the viewing terraces and infields only. Future construction activities at the site would generate short-term noise impacts both on-site and in the nearby surrounding area. Construction activity would be subject to the City's Noise Ordinance that limits construction hours. Given the existing traffic noise levels in the area and the site's proximity to Interstate 680 and Bemal Avenue, and given the distance that the Project site is located away from the nearest housing, staff believes that the increase in the amount of urban noise during and after the Project is constructed would be insignificant. X May be Insignificant Insignificant Significant if Mitigated 3.09. Impacts on Public Services (Fire, Police, Schools, Parks, Maintenance, etc.) Incremental increases in the demand for public services would occur as a result of the Project improvements. Given that this site is generally located within an in-fill overall area, pohce, fire, parks maintenance staff, and related service increases are considered to be insignificant. X May be Insignificant Insignificant Significant if Mitigated 3.10. Impact on Utilities (Water, Sewer, Storm Water Drainage, Solid Waste, etc.) Staff feels there would be no significant impact on public utilities as a result of the Project improvements. In conjunction with development, water, sewer, storm water drainage, power, and telephone service could be adequately provided. All new landscaping is required to meet all applicable water conservation standards. X May be Insignificant Insignificant Significant if Mitigated 9
