Item No. 2 PC : 9-1-88 SU-88-12 Page 5 soundproofing measures in the residential construction, it is not anticipated that there will be a significant impact from noise on either Parcel 1 or Parcel 2 . Additionally, when a residence and a solid fence are constructed on Parcel 1 , this will serve to buffer noise from Lathrop Road for Parcel 2 . Traffic Circulation: The environmental assessment prepared for this project iden- tified a potential cumulative impact from this and other pro- posed projects in the Lathrop area. A large-scale project (approximately 400 dwelling units, commercial area, and park) called Valley Haven has been approved on the north side of Lathrop Road, northeast of the proposed Eagle Park Unit No. 5 subdivision. An Environmental Impact Report prepared for the Valley Haven project has indicated that cumulative traffic impacts are anticipated on Lathrop Road. Regardless of specific location, the cumulative impact of all proposed and approved development in Lathrop will begin to adversely impact roadways throughout the community of Lathrop. The project will be required to participate in the Area of Benefit being developed as a Condition of Approval for the Valley Haven project. One of the proposed parcels, Parcel 1 , will access directly off of Lathrop Road. Lathrop Road is designated as a major collec- tor on the General Plan and carries a high volume of traffic. To enhance area safety by discouraging vehicles from backing out of the driveway on this parcel , the Department of Public Works has developed a recommended condition of approval that will require that either a circular driveway be provided on this parcel or that an on-site turnaround area be provided. Development of this subdivision will enhance area circulation. Construction of Maharaja Drive will provide a link between the two approved subdivisions adjacent to this project , Sunset Manor on the west and Wildflower Estates on the east and south. Landscaping: To ensure that the portion of Parcel 2 adjacent to Maharaja Drive does not become an eyesore and is landscaped and main- tained, a Condition of Approval has been developed which requires that the developer shall install landscaping and an automatic and timed sprinkler system for this area.
