acreage under the proposed project relative to that approved under the existing MHMP,a joint-use agreement is proposed as part of the College Park project to permit the College Park community to use approximately 7 acres of joint-use athletic facilities proposed at the previously approved on-site community college.2 College Park would consolidate MHMP Neighborhoods A and B into a single neighborhood(Neighborhoods AB)(Figure 3-3). College Park would also consolidate the neighborhood centers planned for Neighborhoods A and B in the MHMP into a single neighborhood center containing a neighborhood-serving commercial center,two schools,and a neighborhood park.The non-shared use portion of a second neighborhood park planned for the College Park site by the MHMP would also be developed but would be separate from the neighborhood center. The community planning principles of the proposed concept plan(Figure 3-6B) are listed below: Unify the neighborhoods through using an open space corridor. Provide an open space corridor and recreation linkages along utility easements,connecting residential neighborhoods to parks, schools,and commercial areas. ► Provide a neighborhood center as the primary feature of the community,which includes a neighborhood commercial area and two K-8 schools separated by a neighborhood park. ► Locate Central Parkway to provide direct access to the college. ► Minimize the necessity of pedestrian crossing of arterial roads to access the neighborhood center. • Plan for an enhanced street image and reduced traffic impact by the use of alley accessed housing prototypes and limited driveways across from school entries. ► Provide a wide range of housing types, square footage, and costs. ► Orient Neighborhood D Planning Area to the adjacent school and park. Maintain the Open Space Corridor throughout the residential neighborhoods. 3.$.1 RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT The residential component of College Park would include up to 2,302 residential units with multiple product types.As indicated in Figure 3-6B,Very-Low Density,Low-Density and Medium-Density Residential(VL,L and M)would dominate Neighborhoods AB,while Medium-Density and High-Density Residential (M and H) would dominate the College Park portion of Neighborhood D.Ten acres of Medium-High Density Residential would also be developed in Neighborhoods AB,along Central Parkway close to Mountain House Parkway. The majority of housing provided in Specific Plan IIT is single-family detached homes in the R/L and R/M zoning districts. The type,unit size, and lot size of the residential uses being proposed under the College Park project are discussed in the College Park Specific Plan. The residential component could also include second units in addition to the primary units discussed above.The M RAP requires a portion of the low-and medium-density lots within the College Park area and the greater MHMP area to contain small,one bedroom, studio-type second units.A minimum of 10%of the total very-low, low-and medium-density lots permitted under the MHMP are required to have a second unit. Based on the z The San Joaquin County Community College District certified an EIR for and approved the community college at the College Park site, including the referenced athletic facilities,in 2002.The community college is being evaluated again in this EIR,as required,because the college requires entitlements from San Joaquin County to develop.
