Item No. 3 PC: 12-17-92 SU-92-15 Page 7 FACILITIESISERVICES: Sewa a Disposal: On-site septic systems will provide for sewage disposal. A soil suitability study must be performed prior to approval of the Final Map to determine if the area is suitable for septic tank usage. The two percolation tests that meet the minimum rate are required for each lot but were not included in a recent Nitrate loading study accepted and approved by the Environmental Health Division. Water Supply and Storm Drainage: According to ER-88-1,the anticipated water demands from the proposed project are not expected to significantly affect the areawide water table. The Department of Public Works is requiring water meters on all water services. The potential for groundwater quality degradation as a result of nitrate loading from the on-site septic systems will be mitigated by the applicant's proposal to construct two community wells that shall,conform with the requirements of San Joaquin County Public Health Services(Environmental Health Division) and the Department of Public Works. The system must provide adequate water to meet domestic and fire demands. A community detention pond with terminal drainage to the Calaveras River will provide storm drainage. An easement from Central California Traction Railroad will provide the route for the terminal drainage into the Calaveras River., The Department of Public Works is requiring a hydrology study to determine if the capacity of the Calaveras River and detention pond are adequate for the subdivision. A letter of consent for the.improvements on the adjoining parcel has been signed by the property owner and submitted with the application. Public Services: The letters of opposition expressed concern that a new subdivision would place an additional burden on the fire protection services, the Sheriff's office, and the schools. • Fire protection: For new residential buildings, a fire fee is added to the building inspection fee when a residential permit is issued. The County Fire Services Coordinator has recommended that Court A and Court B be connected to shorten the response time. Environmental Impact Report No. ER-88-1 stated that the increased demand created by this subdivision would not impact the Fire District's ability to adequately provide fire protection. • Sheriff's Department: ER-88-1 states that the addition of 36 homes to the area would incrementally increase the demand for law enforcement services and would contribute to the existing need for additional staffing and equipment created by cumulative development in the County. However, this project in itself would not generate a significant, adverse impact on this department. The response from the San Joaquin County Sheriffs Department notes that the project will have a major impact on current law enforcement procedures. Several crime prevention concepts to be included in the
