<br />CITYOF~ANTA <br />ANA <br /> <br />Responses to <br />Environmental Checklist <br />For CEQA Compliance <br /> <br />allow for additional recreational space for residents. Impacts will be less than <br />significant. <br /> <br />B. The proposed project entails the construction passive recreational facilities that will <br />not adversely impact the environment. The impacts of these facilities are included in <br />the analysis for the respective issues. Impacts will be less than significant. <br /> <br />XV. TransportationlTraffic <br /> <br />A. The implementation of the proposed project would increase vehicle trips in the project <br />area. However, due to the small scale of the proposed project, impacts will be less <br />than significant. <br /> <br />B. The Circulation Element of the City of Santa Ana declares a minimum acceptable <br />Level of Service - D (LOS - D) for major intersections in the City. This is above and <br />beyond what is required by the County's Congestion Management Plan, Due to the <br />small scale of this project, the implementation will not result in a less lt1a'2.-si9l}~!1i. <br />impact.--'j_.~~-_. <br /> <br />C. The project is not within the John Wayne Airport's Planning Area, and the proposed <br />project does not include any heliports/helipads. Therefore air traffic will not be <br />affected. No impact is anticipated. <br /> <br />D. The proposed project will incorporate all applicable civil engineering standards to <br />ensure that its implementation will not result in hazardous design features for <br />vehicular traffic. A traffic study regarding the maneuverability of the public alley <br />access was completed, and the results indicate a less than significant impact. A <br />mitigation measure to have a mirror will be installed that will help the drivers leaving <br />the proposed parking lift see oncoming alley traffic. <br /> <br />E. Construction of the proposed project is not anticipated to result in inadequate <br />emergency access to the site. Impacts are less than significant. <br /> <br />F. The project includes underground parking with a parking lift to allow for eight parking <br />spaces - one per bedroom of the proposed housing project thereby meeting the <br />requirements for the City's multi-family residential parking ordinance. This measure <br />will mitigate any effects for the need for additional parking capacity. Guest and <br />consumer parking will be supplied through existing street parking and existing parking <br />structure facilities. No significant impact will occur. <br /> <br />G. The project will not negatively impact alternative transportation. There is no impact. <br /> <br />XVI. Utilities and Service Systems <br /> <br />A. The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) regulates wastewater treatment for <br />the City of Santa Ana. The proposed project will not cause any violation of those <br />standards set forth by the OCSD as it is a small infill development. No adverse <br />impacts are anticipated, and no mitigation measures are required. <br /> <br />B. The project will not cause a significant increase on existing water supply and <br />wastewater facilities due to the relatively small scale of this infill development project. <br /> <br />8 QArJ 0 <br />
