The Academy Charter High School MND I City of Santa Ana Planning Division <br />• 2035 Project Design Year No-Project Conditions <br />• 2035 Project Design Year with Project Conditions <br />Year 2013 volumes will be identified by applying an appropriate growth rate identified by the City to the existing <br />volumes and adding traffic from approved/pending projects in the area that are anticipated to be completed prior <br />to the opening of the proposed project. Year 2035 forecasts will be developed using a local or regional travel <br />demand model, City General Plan forecasts, or application of a growth rate combined with trips from approved <br />and pending projects. This includes preparation of a cumulative traffic analysis that utilizes all of the previous, <br />pending or reasonably foreseeable projects within the traffic study area. <br />In addition, a review of relevant traffic and parking studies and documents containing traffic analyses within the <br />project area will be completed. This will be performed to determine of any future improvements are to be <br />assumed. In addition, this will include evaluation of the mitigation measures presented in the original <br />development agreement/traffic study as it relates to any proposed mitigation recommended in the proposed <br />project's traffic study. <br />N Traffic Impacts and Mitigations. Fehr & Peers will identify impacts associated with the project traffic. If any <br />impacts are identified, mitigations will be noted. These mitigations could include traffic signal installation, <br />traffic signal improvements, intersection lane striping, localized street improvements, roadway widening, or <br />other related items. Intersection control analysis at unsignalized intersections will be performed, including <br />performing a peak hour signal warrant analysis at unsignalized locations to determine of a traffic signal is <br />warranted and required. <br />® Site Plan and Alternative Modes Review. Fehr & Peers will conduct a review of the project site plan <br />related to site access, internal circulation, and parking. Assessments and recommendations will be <br />developed at project access locations including sight distance and stopping sight distance based on <br />information collected in previous tasks. Internal circulation, Including vehicle queues at driveways and <br />potential impacts of drop-offs and pick-ups on street traffic, will be analyzed using the information collected <br />in Task 2. We will also conduct a peer review of the LLG parking study prepared for the site to determine if <br />adequate parking will be provided for the project. Concurrent with this site plan review, Fehr & Peers will <br />also determine if there are any conflicts with adopted programs and policies related to alternative travel <br />modes like bicycles, pedestrians, and transit. <br />® Neighborhood Impacts. A detailed assessment of the potential impacts to the adjacent residential areas <br />will be performed. This scope assumes that neighborhood streets will be assessed using the count <br />information provided or collected in previous tasks. Please note that this scope and fee assumes this <br />assessment will be conducted in a methodology that is similar in effort to a TIRE (Traffic Intrusion on <br />Residential Environments) index. <br />® Draft Report. Fehr & Peers would produce a professional traffic engineering draft traffic impact report. It is <br />anticipated that a draft report would be produced, with the report updated following the receipt of any <br />comments from the project team and City staff. <br />Sewer Capacity Analysis <br />As a subconsultant to ICF, Fuscoe will prepare a project-specific sewer capacity analysis as requested by the <br />RFP. To identify and document the existing conditions on the project site, Fuscoe will conduct a review of <br />available information related to the project site, including previous wastewater generation demands from the <br />site, proposed development plans, the City's Sewer Master Plan, and any other information that may be <br />pertinent to the existing or proposed wastewater demand. <br />Fuscoe will then prepare a sewer capacity analysis for the proposed project that would evaluate the existing <br />demand based on local sewer generation factors and compare it with proposed demand based on the new <br />school use and projected sewer generation factors. The study will also evaluate the capacity of the public sewer <br />system in the adjacent right-of-way by comparing proposed project flows with the estimated flows (i.e. modeled <br />Page 15 <br />25A-27
