y resident population of 10, 855 would be introduced into the project area . Four of the pending projects would be infill projects within the Morada Rural Residential Area and would result in the development infill of almost all of the currently vacant land in the Morada Area . Approval of the proposed project and suture F proposed project,-5 gn adjacent parcels included within the expanded study area boundaries would extend residential use to the south and east of the Morada Area , resulting in future pressure for County General Plan amendments and for rezoning of agricultural lands at the fringe of the urbanized area . This would result in further, removal of agricultural lands, some of which are now `in FWilliamson Act contracts. ` As a mitigation, the County should undertake planning along the fringe of the Morada Area to ensure that leapfrog development F does not occur upon completion of the infill development. This could be done as part of - the County ' s General Plan review currently in process . As a method of protecting prime agricultural land, the County should consider implementing measures such as Transfer Development Credits and directing development toward lands with less than prime soils . Again, these measures could be considered I, during the General Plan review. The possible addition of approximately 3 , 59 single-family E ' units, 200 mobile home units and 300 multi-family units to the project area would create significant demands on the Sheriff' s Department. Critical review of potential projects duringthe planning stages and the establishment of a fee structure whereby developers are required to contribute to the costs of additional resources for these services would reduce these impacts. r All of the proposed projects are within the Waterloo-Morada Fire District . Cumulative development as proposed is expected to generate significantly higher demands for fire protection services. However, due to a lack of specific project information for the various proposals, the degree to which the District will be able to accommodate cumulative demand is unknown at this time. With the exception of the Arnaiz project all of the cumulative development is within the Lodi Unified School District. ` Based on the District' s average student generation rate of 1 . 08 ' students per single-family dwelling unit, approximately 420 new students could be added to the District. Although the District currently has an expansion program involving construction of several new schools and reconstruc-tion of existing schools, the District anticipates that it will not have the capacity to serve District-wide projected student enrollment. Impacts generated by the Arnaiz project on the Stockton Unified School District are being studied in the forthcoming DEIR . 63
