Item No. 5 PC : 12-3-81 5-82-4 Page 3 - City of Tracy Public Works - The site would not be subject to an Intermediate Regional Flood. Eleventh Street has an existing right of way width of 240' . It is unclear who will maintain sanitary and water systems. Improvement plans and specifications shall be sub- mitted to Public works for approval. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS - The area has a high local water table. The proposed method of sanitary service is a community septic tank and leachfield. This method of sewage disposal risks contamination of the groundwater. In addition, a public entity must be created to maintain the proposed sanitary system. - The drainage system has already been constructed. This too will re- quire a public entity for maintenance. - The proposed design will create an excessive amount of street in proportion to the usable lot area. It would be desirable to modify the design. - Access to the site from the freeway is poor. The I-5 -- I-205 is freeway to freeway. Travelers on I-205 cannot use this Highway Service Area. Travellers on I-5 southbound must foresee the existence of the site and take the Tracy llth Street off ramp before coming to the site. Northbound travellers must likewise take the Kasson Road exit, go northwest to 11th Street, and turn right. Poor access will make the site unattractive to future highway service users. - If Highway Service development does not occur, subdivision of the site will encourage development of non-highway service use such as Commercial Service. - Access to 11th Street is limited to a 50' access point of the extreme west of the property. The access point occurs at the end of a long curve on 11th Street. Adequate offsite improvements should be pro- vided for traffic safety. - The Tentative Map should be revised to show acceleration-deceleration lanes, and a left turn pocket on 11th Street. DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE ACTION - On November 18, 1981, the Development Committee reviewed the proposal as to its conformance with the statutes of the State and the Ordinance of the County. - Action of the Committee was to forward the project to the Planning Commission with a recommendation to ratify the Negative Declaration and approval subject to the following: 1. A. All improvements shall conform with the Improvement Standards and Specifications of the County of San Joaquin . All improve- ment plans and specifications must be approved by the San Joaquin County Department of Public Works prior to approval of the Final Map.
