(2) Noise - To the extent that a reduction in scale of the <br /> project reduces project-induced traffic on Main Street (reference <br /> Section 6.3.2), the noise impact on Owens Drive residents will likewise <br /> be reduced. <br /> (3) Shade/Shadow and Solar Glare - The potential adverse <br /> -S <br /> impacts of shadowing and glare are consequences of building height and <br /> materials rather than the overall size of the development. A low limit <br /> on building height could eliminate such effects, but would appear to be - <br /> an unnecessarily drastic alternative to the mitigation measure <br /> reconnended for the project. <br /> - (4) Housing and Airport Use - A reduction in the scale of the <br /> - . project would likewise reduce the demand for housing in the area by <br /> project employees and the demand for use of the John Wayne Airport. <br /> (5) Demand for Police, Fire, and Paramedic Services - A <br /> .1 reduction in the scale of the project would reduce the demand for use of <br /> police, fire, and paramedic services. It would also reduce city tax <br /> -~ revenues from the site which would otherwise be available for possible <br /> augmentation of those services. <br /> I. 6.3.2 Traffic and Circulation <br /> I <br /> In order to deternine the sensitivity of the transportation <br /> system reconnended in the Phase Two TSIP to changes in the size of the <br /> Fashion Square project, a 33 percent across-the-board reduction in the <br /> project was tested. Two tests were conducted. The most meaningful was <br /> a comparison of the traffic reduction occurring on Main Street as a <br /> result of a 33 percent reduction in Fashion Square. To answer this <br /> question, peak period trips were reduced by one third and a computerized <br /> selected link analysis was used to determine the effect on the direc- <br /> tional design hourly volumes (DDHV) for Main Street.
