This rate per peakhour trip should be imposed upon the incremental traffic growth for any new development within the Transit Zoning Code.■ The program should raise funds from full development of the Transit Zoning Code to fund all identified mitigation measures.■ The program should monitor phasing development of the Transit Zoning Code and defer or eliminate improvements if the densities permitted in the TransitZoning Code are not occurring.■ Program phasing should be monitored through preparation of specific project traffic impact studies for any project that is expected to include more than100 dwelling units or 100,000 sf of non-residential development. Traffic impact studies should use traffic generation rates that are deemed to be mostappropriate for the actual development proposed.■ Properties within Santa Ana and within one-half mile of the Transit Zoning Code that redevelop to result in higher traffic generation should also participatein the program to insure equity.■ The City may elect to implement appropriate mitigation measures as a condition of approval of the proposed developments, where appropriate. All or partof the costs of these improvements may be considered to be a negotiated credit toward the program, however the program must be administered in amanner that assures that it can fund necessary improvements to maintain adequate level of service at all intersections within this study.
