10. Noise Element This element is on remedial measures to deal with existing noise problems, prevention of new noise problems through proper arrangement of noise sensitive land uses in relationship to circulation systems, and establishment of appropriate noise emission or insulation standards for the various land uses. • Review zoning ordinances and modify as necessary to assure appropriate insulation and/or other noise reduction actions with respect to interior and exterior power and mechanical equipment. Require Noise studies (car wash). • Continue to utilize the development approval process to assure that buildings are sited and internal and external traffic circulation systems designed so as to minimize the impact of noise -generating activities on nearby neighborhoods and noise -sensitive land uses. • Work with the California Department of Transportation to develop a freeway noise mitigation program. • Alleviate through -vehicular traffic in residential neighborhoods via implementation of traffic calming measures, including landscaped bulb outs and roundabouts where feasible.

This element also relates to the provision of leisure activities to promote lifelong learning and quality of life. • Implement a park and recreational facilities phasing program which prioritizes needs in the City's more intensely developed neighborhoods. Preparation of a Citywide Park and Recreation Master Plan is underway, which will help identify community needs, engage the public input, and prepare recommendation for addressing needs. Anticipated adoption is May 2022. • The City continues to collaborate with SAUSD to maximize joint use of school recreational facilities for community use. • Several vacant properties are being sought to add acreage to the park system. Properties at 10t" and Flower Streets are being acquired to develop a new neighborhood park, and remnant properties along Bristol Street following a street widening project are being transferred to PRCSA for development into linear parkland. • In 2021, many park rehabilitation project improvements for lighting, game court, play equipment additions, landscaping and other improvements began. Some noteworthy projects include the following: Sports lighting projects were implemented at Riverview Park, Jerome Park and El Salvador Parks. Security lighting was installed at Pacific Electric Bike Trail, Saddleback and Morrison Park.
