MOUNTAIN HousF PROPOSFIJ ALTAMONT HSIGHTs TENTATIVE MAP 4. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST 4.12 POPULATION AND l iOUSING The MHMP adopted land uses for all areas within Specific Plan III and identified approximate acreages for the land uses designated. Specific Plan III carries out the intended land use designations of the MHMP for the project site. The proposed project is anticipated to introduce a population of approximately 170 persons, based upon the following calculations as shown in Table 4.12-1. Table 4.12-1 Proposed Altamont Heights Housing and Population Gross Dwelling Density Land Use Zoning Acres Units(du) (du/acre) Persons/du Population Residential R-L 12.72 53 4.17 3.11 b 164 Second Units R-L Included in (6`) NIA I.Od 6 R-L above' Total 12.72 53 — — 170 Notes: ' Second units would be located on R-L lots. b Specific Plan 11I,Table 3-13:Housing Analysis. Not counted in the number of primary dwelling units or in density calculations. d Assumed by Mills Associates. Table 3-3 in Specific Plan III identifies the project site as having a maximum density of 54 dwelling units and a minimum density of 42 units. The tentative map reflects a total of 53 single-family units and six, second units_ The expected units per wastewater limitations are 48, five less than what is proposed. However, it should be noted that the applicant has not utilized eight Residential/Medium High Density dwelling units for which he was entitled for the Regent's Gate tentative map approved by the Planning Commission on August 17, 2006. The Regents Gate project is in another part of the Specific Plan III area. The wastewater generated from these units would be equivalent to that generated by the five Residential/Low Density dwelling units located in the proposed Altamont Heights project. Thus, the number of proposed units proposed is consistent with the wastewater limitations. The unit count is also in compliance with the density shown in Table 3-3 of Specific Plan III. The SPIIIEIR addressed the impacts associated with buildout of Specific Plan III, including traffic and meeting the County's jobs/housing balance. The proposed project is consistent with the projections analyzed in the SPIIiEIR and therefore does not create any new impacts. Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required. b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? The proposed project will cause the removal of one house and ancillary buildings that belong to the previous property owner. The remainder of the site is vacant. The loss of one house does not constitute a substantial number of existing houses to be replaced. 4-60
