STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS TO THE CITY OF SANTA ANA FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS -TRAFFIC Report Preparation KOA will prepare a traffic study that will include the following (at a minimum): 1. Existing Conditions II. Project Related Traffic Volumes III. Interim Analysis - based on the Various Phases (If Applicable) IV. Ultimate Build -Out Scenario V. Traffic Impact Analysis 4 Existing Conditions .4 Opening Year with + without the Project • Opening Year with the Project with Mitigation (if needed) • General Plan Build -out with + without the Project General Plan Build -out with the Project with Mitigation (if needed) VI. On -site Circulation VII. Mitigation Measures (If Necessary) VIII. Specific Analysis IX. General Issues X. Conclusions The study will address traffic conditions at all relevant intersections required by the County Congestion Management Plan and City guidelines. Mitigation Mitigation measures will identify project -related traffic impacts based on a comparison of the results of LOS analyses between the applicable scenarios listed above. Project impacts will be based on City's standards and will be identified based on the various project phases and the full build -out scenario. As appropriate, mitigations measures designed to reduce potential circulation impacts to acceptable levels will be identified. Evaluation of potential mitigation measures and an analysis of their effectiveness will be provided. The mitigation measures section should include potential impact on adjacent properties; schematic drawing illustrating said impacts and the possibility of property takes, if applicable. If necessary, KOA can develop and provide conceptual mitigation measures through restriping, signal modifications, or turning lanes. Any mitigation measure will include a discussion regarding feasibility of the implementation of said measures including potential right-of-way acquisition, parking prohibition/restriction, specific movement restrictions, and cost estimate of said measures. Mitigation measures will be shown on a scale graphical drawing. The City of Santa Ana does not need full-scale drawings, but they need conceptual figures in sufficient detail to relay visual looks to the reader to understand the exact nature of the mitigation measure (i.e. drawn on an aerial photo). If mitigation requiring physical road construction at any location is required, field surveys and site -specific civil engineering feasibility studies will be required. These may be prepared by KOA or others and are excluded from our scope of services. UKatz, Okitsu & Associates Planning and Engineering 15
