Traffic and Circulation A traffic study has been prepared by K D. Anderson Transportation Engineers and is being reviewed by the Department of Public works. The study recommends that no residential lots face the collector street that connects to French Camp Road. Cumulative traffic is estimated at 6,000 average daily trips between French Camp Road and the first intersection in the subdivision. The study indicates that feasible mitigation measures are available to reduce potential traffic impacts to less than significant levels. Water Supply and Sewage Disposal A conditional will-serve letter has been received from the Stockton City Department of Municipal Utilities for the provision of water supply and sewage disposal. The City of Stockton Community Development Department notes that an amendment to the City's General Plan will be required. Storm Drainage The proposal provides for detention ponds and terminal drainage for runoff created by the project. Flooding from off the site is to be directed across the site over surface streets and discharged off the site as sheet flow. Parks The applicant proposes to combine the parks and the drainage detention basins. This approach is acceptable to the Department of Public Works and the Department of Parks and Recreation, subject to review and acceptance by Parks and Recreation. If the final plans are not satisfactory to Parks and Recreation, in leu fees will be required. French Camp MAC The French Camp Municipal Advisory Council heard this item on March 15, 1994, and recommended that the project be approved. ENVIRONMENTAL On March 29, 1994, an Initial Study was prepared for this item, and a Negative Declaration was prepared. Air Qualitv The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District recommends that an EIR be prepared for this project. The Urbemis3 model shows an estimated 133 lbs/day of NOx (Nitrogen Oxide) and 65 lbs/day of ROG (Reactive Organic Gases) due to vehicle trips generated by this project. The district notes that if mitigation measures (on-site and/or off-site) can be shown to decrease the net amount of air pollution to below 55 lbs/day, a Mitigated Negative Declaration will be justified from an air quality perspective. As with any project that increases traffic, air quality is a cumulatively significant impact. The Environmental Impact Report for the San Joaquin County Comprehensive Planning Program (ER-90-6) addressed this issue. That EIR was certified by the County, and the County made Statements of Overriding Consideration regarding air quality when adopting the Comprehensive Planning Program, including the R/L General Plan designation for this site.
