Item No. 5 PC: 5-19-88 ZR-88-28 Page 4 to another type of nonconforming use, or to establish an M-1 use . Surrounding uses are primarily industrial . The proposed M-1 zone would allow development of light manufacturing uses, which would appear to be compatible with the existing, surrounding, nonresidential land uses. Traffic Circulation: The local transportation network appears adequate for the industrial development that would be permissible under the M-1 zone. The project area' s parcels are located either along or very close to Fremont Street , a designated arterial . Generally, arterials are adequate to accommodate industrial traffic . If street improvements are required for buildout of the project area, such improvements will be reviewed when development applications are submitted for parcels within the project area. FACILITIES/SERVICES : The development requirements for sewage treatment , water supply, and storm drainage were reviewed above under the "General Plan and Zoning" section. The project site is located within the East Stockton Sanitary Sewer Service Area. Sewer allocations have been based on resi- dential uses and will , thus, severely restrict potential manufac- turing uses . Specifically, 80 allocations were alloted to this area as compared to 200 that would be necessary to permit a full range of industrial users. If a "dry" industrial zone is developed with the General Plan update that will be designed to permit those uses with minimal sewage needs, this entire area will be rezoned. If a "dry" industrial zone is not adopted, staff will amend the General Plan designation on the remaining area to be consistent with the current R-2 zoning. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS : On the basis of the Initial Study prepared for ZR-88-28 , the Planning Division concluded that the reclassification to M-1 would not have a significant , adverse effect on the project environment . On this basis, a Negative Declaration has been pre- pared.
