PROPOSAL FOR SERVICES MOUNTAIN HOUSE NEIGHBORHOODS 1&J INMAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION ■ Describe boundaries of service areas for the above,as applicable,with an emphasis on the Mountain House CSD and its current/planned operations. ■ Assess the needs for recreational opportunities that residents of Neighborhoods I and J will require and analyze this need in relation to the Master Plan. Recreational facilities provided as part of the I and J neighborhoods will be clearly identified. ■ Identify any water capacity limitations that may affect the amount of future development allowed,if applicable. ■ Describe projected utility demands from the project,based on data provided by the applicant and identify the potential for energy conservation and solar energy for residential units. We would ask that the applicant provide information on any planned energy conservation measures. ■ Assess utility upgrades necessary to serve new development,based on conversations with the Mountain House CSD staff,as compared to SP II assumptions. ■ Describe potential impacts related to increased demands for water and wastewater service, solid waste removal, gas and electricity,telephone service,recreational facilities and fire/police service. Given that the new land use plan is very similar to what was evaluated as part of SP II, impacts to services,utilities and recreation are not expected to be significant. Develop appropriate mitigation measures for each potential impact. F. Traffic and Circulation This section will be completed by TJKM Associates under the direction of Amy Skewes-Cox. The following is TJKM's proposed scope of work to complete the transportation analysis for the proposed modified Neighborhoods I and J in the Mountain House CSD. The traffic analysis will be based upon methodologies approved by the County(e.g. San Joaquin County traffic model)and Caltrans. TJKM will use the San Joaquin Council of Government (SJCOG)model for traffic projections and analysis. SJCOG Model Forecast and LOS Standard TJKM is very familiar with the SJCOG model having assisted the COG to calibrate,used the model for the previous SP II studies and has maintained the model for the past three years. Traffic impacts will be assessed based on County policies and standards of significance. The level of service (LOS)for the gateway roadways in the Mountain House Community Service District (CSD)is LOS D or better. All other roadways in the San Joaquin County are LOS C or better. The LOS threshold in Alameda County is LOS D. The analysis will assess impacts at relevant existing and proposed roadway segments, intersections, freeway segments, and freeway on/off-ramps. The detailed LOS analysis will include approximately 13 study intersections and several arterial streets LOS analysis as shown in the figure below. 07117/06 8
