Ponderosa Homes - LehmanlSelway Property - Environmental Checklist This mitigation is needed with/without this development as the combined traffic from all ap- proved development projects produces this LOS "E" condition. This mitigation would bring the LOS at this intersection into conformance with City's LOS "D" standard. Because this mitiga- tion is considered to be City wide, the project's payment of City and Tri-Valley Traffic Impact Fees is considered to be its mitigation, and will be conditioned of this project with its approval. Therefore, this impact is considered to be a less-than-significant-with-mitigation-incorporated. The Mohr Avenue/Santa Rita Road intersection will experience an increase of 17 trips in the a.m. peak hour and 21 trips in the p.m. peak hour. While this intersection does operate at an ac- ceptable level of service in both the a.m./p.m. peak hours with the additional trips generated by the proposed project, the increase in the westbound volurne creates delay for the eastbound and westbound left turns. It is recommended that this intersection be modified to provide pro- tected/permissive left turn phasing for the eastbound and westbound approaches prior to the oc- cupancy of the project. This signal modification will reduce the overall delay at the intersection and provide added safety during the peak hours. Therefore, this impact is considered to be a less-than-significant-with-mitigation-incorporated. c) The proposed project will add 24 trips to Cameron Avenue and Kamp Drive or Martin Avenue if 100 percent of the project trips were concentrated on either of these two streets during the a.m./p.m. peak hour. The 24 p.m. peak hour trips represent less than one additional car every two minutes. The existing LOS "c" on these streets for the a.m./p.m. peak hour will not change with the addition of this project's traffic. However, as a traffic calming measure, Cameron Ave- nue will be reconstructed across the entire project frontage with a curvilinear alignment replacing the present straight alignment. The proposed project will have no effect on existing air traffic pattems. Therefore, this would be a less-than-significant-impact. d-e) Public street access is provided directly from Cameron Avenue and indirectly from Martin Ave- nue and Kamp Drive to Mohr Avenue. All access driveways and public streets are designed to City standards. Therefore, this would be a less than significant impact. f) All residential lots covered by this development will include a three-car garage and at least three on-site parking spaces in the driveway aprons. Therefore, this would be a no-impact. g) Bicycle racks are not required with single-family residential developments. However, a sidewalk will be provided along the north side of Cameron A venue to link with the sidewalk on the east side of Martin Avenue. Therefore, this would be a less-then-significant-impact. 12.
