In addition to the Trimark Communities' implemented process, two other review processes will be implemented. First, all applicants for implementing permits will be required to go through a County sponsored Design Consistency Review Committee for review of consistency with all County required design policies. Second, all applicants for implementing permits will be required to coordinate with the CSD to ensure consistency with all applicable CSD Design and Construction Standards. The results of both of these review procedures will ultimately be forwarded to the County for consolidation into approval recommendations for permit issuance. XIV. TRANSPORTATION AND CIRCULATION FACILITIES The Tract 2925 request includes the plan to construct phased portions of on-site arterial roads and collectors identified in the Master Plan. These roadways include portions of Mountain House Parkway, De Anza Blvd., Mascot Blvd., Mountain House Blvd., Central Parkway and Wicklund Crossing. These improvements will likely be financed with private funding, in exchange for fee credits imposed through the County's T1MF or the CSD's MHTIF. In addition, some off-site (in community) improvements will likely be required in order to maintain County standards for levels of service. The Tract 2925 proposal will generate, through the collection of local and regional traffic impact fees, funds to be collected by the County (THVT) and CSD (MHTIF) to pay for future roadway and transportation program responsibilities of the project, consistent with the community approvals and policies contained in Section 9 of the Master Plan and Specific Plan I, as implemented by ordinance. Development within the subdivision will also generate fees to be collected by the CSD to fund over time, and consistent with requirements of the Master Plan, specific transit services and programs identified by the CSD's TDM program. Additional specific improvements included in the subdivision proposal include the construction of transit items including transit stops along De Anza Blvd. and within the Neighborhood on the north side of the K-8 School, as well as bus stop shelters in various locations. XV. ADJACENT AGRICULTURAL OPERATIONS Trimark Communities owns and leases all adjacent agricultural fields for tenant farming, except for the adjacent dairy operations to the south of the subdivision area. The agricultural operations to the west and north of the subdivision area are operated year round, where a combination of corn, sugar beats and alfalfa are grown and harvested. As depicted on the Community Edge Buffer Map included in Section 4 of this Binder, as well as the Farmland Irrigation and Groundwater Report(See Section 12 of this Binder), Trimark plans to cease agricultural operations on a phased basis in the immediate vicinity of the Tract 2925 area, and to discontinue on-going farm oriented irrigation to the fields covered by the subdivision map, as well as the fields immediately west of the project site. Further, Trimark-intends to establish a minimum of a 100-foot setback between the ultimate build-out boundary of the subdivision and any on-going farm operations. The actual setback in most cases is over two hundred feet and in same cases is as much as 1,000 feet. In areas where farm operations are ceased and development is not anticipated to occur, Trimark intends to plant these fallow areas with a low maintenance ground cover(i.e. alfalfa)to minimize dust impacts to future residents and to create a natural barrier between farm operations and development. All areas outside of this buffer area are intended to remain in active farm operation, until future development phases dictate transition. XVI.
