i~ ~ -~- - - Environmental Checklist ' For CEQA Compliance ' C. No Impact. The proposed project would not affect air traffic patterns. The project is not located in the vicinity of an airport or private airstrip, nor would it include any structures that would extend into the air and affect aircraft circulation. No impacts would occur. ' D. Less Than Significant Impact. As stated in Section XV-A, a significant adverse impact would not occur at local intersections or roadway segments as a result of the proposed project. Impacts are considered less than significant. ' E. Less Than Significant Impact. The project would not result in inadequate emergency access. Additionally, the project would not affect existing emergency access routes. All appropriate fire and emergency access conditions would be incorporated into the design of ' the project. Prior to final site plan approval, the applicant would submit plans to the department for review of compliance with applicable fire equipment regulations. Impacts would be less than significant. ' F. No Impact. For this type of single-family detached residential land use, the City requires 152 parking spaces (MDS Consulting 2007). A single driveway would provide access to the site via Alton Avenue through a gated entrance. The proposed project would include 76 covered parking spaces as garages and 54 covered parking spaces as driveways, for a total of 130 ' off-street parking spaces (MDS Consulting 2007). Additionally, 23 on-street, uncovered parking spaces would be designated along the private drive as part of the proposed project (MDS Consulting 2007). Therefore the proposed project would have a total of 153 parking ' spaces (MDS Consulting 2007). This exceeds the amount of parking required by the City by one parking space. There would be no impact as a result of inadequate parking capacity. G. Less Than Significant Impact. The project would not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or ' programs supporting alternative transportation. There is a Class I Bike Lane along Alton Avenue and no designated bike lane along South Fairview Street per City of Santa Ana Bikeway Master Plan (City of Santa Ana 2003). The project site is served by the Orange County Transit Authority (OCTA) bus route #47 and #145 along South Fairview Street (OCTA ' 2006). There are bus stops at the southeast corner and northwest corner of the Alton Avenue and South Fairview Street intersection (OCTA 2002). Additionally, the project is within walking distance of a number of retail needs. No significant impacts would occur. ' XVI. Utilities and Service Systems A. Less Than Significant Impact. The project site is located within the service area of the ' Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The project would not exceed the wastewater treatment requirements of the RWQCB for storm runoff because it would be required to comply with the RWQCB's objectives, water quality standards, and best management practice requirements established in the Santa Ana River Basin Plan and ' Orange County Drainage Area Management Plan. The City of Santa Ana Storm Water Management Program Ordinance (Municipal Code Ch. 18) governs all projects within the City to comply with the Orange County DAMP and the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board MS4 permit, which is the NPDES permit that governs stormwater discharges into the public storm system (MDS Consulting 2007:1). In addition, the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) regulates wastewater treatment for ' the City of Santa Ana. The proposed project would not cause any violation of those standards set forth by the OCSD. The existing land use currently generates wastewater from the daily use of the SAUSD facility and has existing sewer ties into Fairview Street.
