sl..� mitiai Study—LID Annexation The City of Lathrop General Plan(General Plan) includes several policies specifically related to the public services(fire,police,public schools, solid waste management). However,only the following policies under the "Safety Goals and Policies;section of the General Plan apply to the proposed project: 1. The City will work to maintain a fire flow standard of 3,000 gpm [gallons per minute] for all commercial and industrial areas,and 1,500 gpm for residential areas,to assure capability to suppress urban fires. In strategic areas,the City should provide above ground water storage with capacities sufficient to supply the City for required durations. 2. The City will maintain a street system which is capable of providing access to any fires that may develop within the urban area,and which is capable of providing for the adequate evacuation of residents in the event of an emergency condition of magnitude. 2.13.2 Public Services—Impacts Potentially Less Than Less Than No Impact Significant Signifcant Significant Impact with Impact Mitigation Incorporation XIII. PUBLIC SERVICES -- Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: a)Fire protection? ❑ ❑ N ❑ b)Police protection? ❑ ❑ ❑ c)Schools? ❑ ❑ ❑ d)Parks? ❑ ❑ ❑ 0 e)Other public facilities? ❑ ❑ ❑ 0 There are no direct impacts to public services as a result of this proposal other than the possible obstruction of roadways during construction activities which could obstruct or slow emergency vehicles attempting to access the area. The River Islands EIR proposed mitigation measures for this impact that would be required of this project,requiring any new construction to prepare and implement traffic control plans for construction activities that may affect road rights-of-way. The traffic control plans must follow California Department of Transportation standards and be signed by a professional engineer. Additionally,the proposed substation will provide appropriate access(fire lanes,etc.)for emergency purposes. The Project would not require additional or more effective mitigation measures to avoid significant environmental effects other than the mitigation measure described above. The impacts are considered less than significant. For the provision of sewer and water services, public services impacts were analyzed in the Lathrop Water, Wastewater and Recycled Water Master Plan EIR (Master Plan EIR), River Islands EIR and for 57
