MINUTES <br />PLANNING COMMISSION <br />10/26/83 <br />Page 18 <br />Mr. Kenzel explained the formula used in their report. <br />Commissioner Wilson asked about the comment concerning the provision <br />that no intersection be allowed to deteriorate to LOS D. He indicated <br />he recalls reading that ongoing traffic studies that they were <br />to indicate when the intersections became LOS E planning and everything <br />would halt. He was confused that some reports say D and others <br />E and he would liike to know which it is under any circumstances. <br />Mr. Kenzel stated that the condition reads that you cannot exceed <br />D, or cannot reach LOS E, so LOS D would be the lowest level or <br />worse condition that would be achieved. <br />Jim Musbach, Gruen + Gruen, addressed the Commission. He stated <br />that their study presented a very exaggerated impact of the areas <br />under study. The purpose of their analysis is to assess the impacts <br />of the project which they did. The environmental review process <br />establishes a means of monitoring development in the Tri-Valley <br />on an ongoing basis. <br />Stan Saylor, Bissell and Karn, addressed wastewater. If Hacienda <br />Business Park were to be approved and allowed to connect to the <br />sewerage system, it could result in an overload to the system, <br />but the EIR, both Volume I and II point out that approval of the <br />PUD would not permit Hacienda Business Park to discharge anything <br />to the sewerage system. He explained that sewer permits are issued <br />with building permits by the City, DSRSD and LAVWMA. They have <br />no authority to overcommit their capaiity without running the <br />risk of a building ban. Further the DSRSD is the holder of both <br />federal and state permits. The Regional Water Quality Control <br />Board continually monitors this situation when any treatment <br />plant approaches 75% of capacity. He then addressed water supply <br />relative to the general plan amendment. He says there will be <br />no land use change. Quantification of water was made in the EIR, <br />Volume II which also references the prior EIR and forecasts of <br />Camp Dresser and McKee. He indicated City staff and Zone 7 forecasts <br />are covered in detail in both volumes. He read a paragraph of <br />Zone 7's staff report of March 30, 1983 explaining the various <br />scenarios under which deficits might occur. <br />John Innes, General Plan Chairman, stated that the Transportation <br />Subcommittee of the General Plan Review studied acceptable levels <br />of traffic for six months with regard to the various projects <br />within the City. He requested that the level of service be defined <br />as shown on the Trans ortation Subcommittee Roadwa s Task Force <br />Document to be inclu a in con itions o approval or the Hacienda <br />Business Park. This report was previously distributed to the <br />Planning Commission and dated 10/13/83 calling for a specific <br />range within the LOS (Item 3 (a through e). <br />Commissioner Wilson asked if the Committee is satisfied with <br />Condition No. 2 of the PUD. Mr. Innes said he was not sure if <br />this is consistent with the Meyer and Reynolds and Brown as well <br />as other developments. He urged that the General Plan Committee <br />recommendation be implemented into project approval at this time. <br />-18- <br />
