MOUNTAIN HOUSE PROPOSED MACHADO TENTATIVE MAP 4. ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST - 4.13 PUBLIC SERVICES The County Sheriff has an office in the new fire station located at Mascot Boulevard and Tradition Street. A new sheriff's substation in the Mountain House Town Center, located in Specific Plan I area,will be constructed before the total population of Mountain House Community reaches 7,500 people.The Mountain House Community is in Beat Area 8, and the current average response time is less than 20 minutes from the time the dispatch call is issued to the time the officers are on the scene at the Mountain House Community(EDAW 2005b). The average response time will be significantly reduced when the substation is operational at the Mountain House Community. Therefore,the proposed project would result in a less-than- significant impact on law-enforcement services for the Mountain House Community. Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required.
