Finding: Formation and implementation of assessment districts <br />to provide for system improvements will mitigate impacts. <br /> <br />Fact: Assessment district improvements will provide for <br />freeway interchange improvements, freeway and local street <br />widening, traffic control signals, and similar improvements <br />to accommodate increased traffic levels in the North Pleasanton <br />area. <br /> <br />Finding: Transit and transportation systems management <br />programs will reduce the traffic levels during commute <br />hours. <br /> <br />Fact: Certain companies within the project will be required <br />to participate in a program of van~ooling, car~ooling, and <br />alternative work-hours in order to reduce the ~ependence on <br />the single-occupancy vehicle and the traffic congestion. <br /> <br />Finding: Phasing of project buildout in conjunction with <br />necessary improvements will reduce the impacts of increased <br />traffic levels. <br /> <br />Facts: The phasing of construction and corresponding <br />traffic-related improvements will mrovide for gradual <br />accommodation of capacity needs and prevent congestion <br />beyond acceptable service levels. <br /> <br />Finding: Economic, social, and evironmental considerations <br />make further reductions in the scale of the project infeasible. <br /> <br />Facts: The scale of the project is necessary in maintaining <br />the marketability of the site in order. to provide increased <br />employment opportunities to the local community and to <br />increase the tax base of the City. <br /> <br />Si%nificant Effect: Increase in traffic levels will create <br />unacceptable noise levels affecting existing residential <br /> <br />Finding: The use of construction techniques, insulation <br />materials, and soundwalls will reduce noise to acceptable <br />levelsl <br /> <br />Facts: The project developers will be required to conduct <br />accoustical analyses in the residential areas to determine <br />and fund necessary noise mitigation measures. <br /> <br />Finding: Economic and social considerations make elimination <br />of traffic-related noise increases infeasible. <br /> <br />Facts: The scale and types of uses proposed for the project <br />are necessary in maintainin% the marketability of the site <br />in order to provide increased employment opportunities to <br /> <br />-3- <br /> <br /> <br />
