RESOLUTION 94-023 86. Project structures shall be designed and built in conformance with the Seismic Safety Element of thc City's General Plan, applicable portions of the Building and Municipal Codes and requirements of the Public Works Agency. New gas lines shall be equipped with automatic shut off valves that would be activated in the event of a major earthquake. 88. All potentially dangerous non-structural features of the project shall be tied into structural elements of thc building. Heavy equipment and other potentially hazardous objects shall be secured to floors and walls. 9. To assist in response to a seismic event, an emergency response and building specific evacuation plan shall be developed for the project and posted in each building. The,se mitigation measures are designed to ensure that buildings meet current reguhtory standards for seismic safety and, that if buildings are occupied during an ea~%hq.a~% ba?ards to occupants are minimized. , Ve SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMFMTAL EFFECTS WHICH CANNOT BE AVOIDF. D 1~ THE PROJECT IS IMPLEMENTED TRANSPORTATION AND CBZCULATION - Project-specific and Cumuhtive Impacts The proposed project (including the restaurant and bank) will generate up to 23,455 daily trips, of which 716 trips will occur during the a.m. peak hour and of which 2,007 will occur during the p.m. peak hour. The I:.IR traffic analysis uses the adopted Santa Ana/Tustin Transportation System Improvement Program (SATTSIP). Taking into account (1) project-generated traffic, (2) project mitigations, (3) traffic generated from other entitled projects, and (4) mitigations from other entitled projects, it was determined that with implementation of the project, three intersections will operate at unacceptable levels of service: (1) Tustin Avenue and Santa Clara (a.m. only), (2) Tustin Avenue and Seventeenth Street (a.m. and p.m.), and (3) Tustin Avenue and Fourth Street (a.m. and p.m.). The l~.lR's traffic analysis also includes a broader evaluation of cumulative wa/ftc impacts coveting a larger area than the SATI'SIP model. Including cumulative backgwund traffic calculations, the proposed project will make an incremental contribution to cumulatively significant impacts on three intersections: (1) Tustin and Seventeenth, (2) Tustin and Fourth, and (3) Tusfin and Santa Clara. - 10 -
