Aft KLEINFELDER File No. 20-3978-O1.W10 July 26, 1997 2.0 SITE SETTING 2.1 Site Location The Spreckels site is located in a portion of the Northern 1/2 of the Northeast 1/4 of Section 4, a portion of the Eastern 1/2 of the Southeast 1/4 of Section 4 and the Western 1/2 of Section 3 of Township 2 South Range 7 East of the Mount Diablo Baseline and Meridian. According to the 1987 photorevised U.S. Geological Survey "Manteca, California, East" 7.5-Minute Topographic Quadrangle Map, the property has an elevation of approximately 40 feet above mean sea level. However, the topography of the site varies extensively. According to a December 1996 topographic survey of the site by RLC Associates of Manteca (the basis of our attached boring location maps),the site has an elevation ranging from 38 to 68 feet above mean sea level. The overall former Spreckels Sugar Plant No. 2 property includes approximately 362 acres of property which were recently annexed to the City of Manteca. 2.2 Current Site Use And Vicinily Characteristics The project site is currently a non-operating sugar beet processing plant with associated former cattle yards, orchards, waste ponds etc... . The facility is currently undergoing demolition for the pending escrow. The site is bound to the north by Yosemite Avenue, to the south by the California State Highway 120 Bypass, to the west by Powers Avenue and residential development and to the east by California State Highway 99. The site vicinity could be characterized by mixed use, retail, light commercial, agricultural and residential property. 2.3 Proposed Site Development The property will be redeveloped as a 362 acre, mixed-use development called "Spreckels Park" (see the attached photoreduced copy of the Tentative Map). The current plans include the construction of Spreckels Avenue, which would run south and southwest from the current intersection of Cottage Avenue and Yosemite Avenue to Moffat Boulevard near the current southwest comer of the property. Seven lots of commercial property covering 48.0 acres would border the intersection of Yosemite Avenue and Spreckels Avenue and cover the current northeast corner of the property. South of the commercial development, bordered by Spreckels Avenue on the west and Highway 99 on the east, nine lots of industrial property are proposed constituting a 180.8 acre industrial park. The area in the current northwest corner is proposed for a 35.9 acre residential development, including an approximately 4.6 acre park/stormwater basin. 20-3978-01.WI0/2017LI55 Page of 50 Copyright 1997,Kleinfelder,Inc.
