MITIGATION MEASURES The County should consider implementing one or more measures in the project vicinity to protect existing commercial agriculture. Such measures would include publicizing the County's right-to-farm ordinance, maintaining the large-lot zoning and maintaining open space buffers between farming and urbanized land uses. From the standpoint of public services, one of the major cumulative development impacts would be related to the increased demand for potable water. Conservation of water supplies through reduced consumption, recy- cling and reuse should be given adequate consideration in the land use permit process. The major mitigating actions that can be taken in consideration of the importance of conserving water supplies is to attract low water-using industry and land uses, and to discourage site development standards and designs calling for substantial irrigation of ornamental landscaping. Additionally, the use of reclaimed water should be encouraged for landscape irrigation and industrial processing where feasible. All new developments should incorporate on-site fire protection systems and should coordinate with County-wide emergency contingency planning agencies. From the County's perspective, an increase in train- ing activity would mitigate an existing police officer shortage. The City and County law enforcement agencies should continue to coordinate the police coverage of the project area to ensure that limited forces are not providing duplicate coverage. , Programs whereby certain wastes such as cardboard, paper, aluminum and glass are separated from solid waste for recycling should be encouraged by local officials and project proponents. Given the significance of traffic impacts from the proposed Arch Road Industrial Park Units 3 and 4, numerous mitigation measures have been recommended. These include: • Major improvements to the Mariposa Road/Highway 99 interchanged including widening of Mariposa Road; 4-6 101-36.R3 4/I0/89
