Transit stops. A transit stop is proposed for Neighborhoods K and L adjacent to the K-8 schools, as shown in figure 9. A 2-acre transit station site has been set aside next to the UPRR tracks in v Neighborhood L at the far southeastern comer of this neighborhood. Union Pacific Railroad. The Union Pacific Railroad line, which traverses the community along Byron Road, is being treated as a future active line that may serve light commuter rail and other freight services. Specific Plan It and the Conditions of Approval for the Neighborhood K and L Tentative Maps propose a specific combination of berm and sound wall treatments to achieve proper attenuation for noise-sensitive land uses along the north side of the rail line. These treatments would be installed wherever residential uses are proposed adjacent to the line. 9. Public Services-Education Based on Master Plan school generation assumptions, the proposed project is expected to generate 1,350 K-8 students and 319 high school students, as shown in Table 4 below.

For K-8 aged children, the school provider would be the Lammersville Unified School District(LUSD),which 1.0101 recently became a unified school district in July, 2011. Currently LUSD operated 3 K-8 schools- Wicklund Elementary in Neighborhood F, Bethany Elementary in Neighborhood E, and Sebastian Questa Elementary in Neighborhood H. Until the K-8 schools in Neighborhoods K and L are operational it is anticipated that students from these neighborhoods would be bussed or driven to Bethany Elementary and/or Sebastian Questa Elementary,depending on enrollment capacity at these schools. High school students from the development would attend Kimball High School in Tracy, approximately 5 miles east of Mountain House, or other schools operated by Tracy Unified School District(TUSD) until the high school in Mountain House is built. Plans for the new high school in Mountain House have just been approved and will be submitted to the State Department of Education in December 2011. LUSD would determine the phasing of construction of the high school (Note:The Mountain House Master Plan states that construction would occur in phases starting when there are 650 high school students in Mountain House,with the final phase to be completed when there are 1,800 students. As of July 2011, Mountain House had approximately 700 high school students.) 10. Public Safety& Public Services-Health Fire Services: Fire protection and emergency medical response services would be provided by the MHCSD. The MHCSD provides these services via an agreement with the Tracy Rural Fire Protection District(TRFPD). TRFPD in tum has a Join Powers Agreement with the City of Tracy whereby the City of Tracy Fire Department provides fire protection and emergency medical response within the boundaries of TRFPD and to the Mountain House Community. A permanent fire station has been constructed on Mascot Boulevard south of Byron Road, immediately northeast of the high school site. An engine company with on Type I pumper engine and three person crews, consisting of two fire stations and one emergency medical technician, has been assigned to the station. Per 10
