EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Rezone Application No. R-03-59 proposes to change the zone district from R-A/UGM (Single Family.
' Residential-AgriculturaUUrban Growth Management) to R-1/EA/UGM (Single Family Residential/Expressway
Area/Urban Growth Management) for approximately 80 acres of property located at the southeast corner of
East Dakota and North Temperance Avenues. The applicant, Vic Deverian, has also filed Conditional Use
Permit Application No. C-03-204 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5237/UGM proposing to subdivide the
subject property into a 391-lot single family residential subdivision, including 214 reduced size (less than 6,000
square feet) and reduced width (less than 60 feet) lots at an overall density of 4.9 units per acre. The rezone,
conditional use permit and vesting tentative tract map applications were approved by the Planning Commission
and no appeals were received..Therefore,the Planning Commission's action on the conditional use permit and
tract map applications is final. The applications will bring the zoning and use for the property into
conformance with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL FINDING
The initial study prepared for Environmental Assessment No. R-03-59/C-03-204/T-5237 considered potential
environmental impacts associated with the subject rezone, conditional use permit and tentative tract map
applications. The study indicates that the project, if approved, would conform to the land use designation and
land use policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan- however, it is not within the scope of Master Environmental
Impact Report No. 10130. Therefore, staff has issued a finding of a mitigated negative declaration which
incorporates mitigation measures from MEIR No. 10130 as well as project specific mitigation measures. The
mitigated negative declaration was issued on February 24, 2004. This environmental finding was properly

BACKGROUND /ANALYSIS
The applicant, Vic Deverian, has filed Rezone Application.No. R-03-59, Conditional Use Permit Application
No.C-03-204,and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5237/UGM for 80 acres of property located at the southeast
comer of East Dakota and North Temperance Avenues. The rezone application is requesting a zone change
from the R-A/UGM (Single Family Residential-Agricu/turalAftan Growth Management) zone district to the
R-1/EA/UGM (Single Family Residential/Expressway Area/Urban Growth Management) zone district..
Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-03-204 proposes to allow 214 lots of the proposed 391-lot single
family residential subdivision to have reduced lot areas (less than 6,000 square feet) and reduced lot widths
(less than 60 feet). Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5237/UGM is proposing to subdivide the subject property
into 391 single family residential lots for a density of 4.9 units per acre.
On November 19, 2002, the City Council,through Resolution No.2002-379,adopted the 2025 Fresno General
Plan which updated the McLane Community Plan. The updated Community Plan designates the subject
property for medium density residential land use. The applicant wishes to pursue development.of the subject
property with 391 single family homes. The requested R-1/EA/UGM zone district conforms to this medium
density residential land use designation as indicated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan's "Planned Land Use
and Zone District Consistency Matrix."
Surrounding existing land uses are characterized by vacant,agriculture and rural residences to the north,south,
west,and east. There are two single family residential subdivisions which have been approved to the west and
a mini-storage facility is proposed for land to the north. Access to the subject site will be from North Locan,
East Shields and East Dakota Avenues, which are major streets, with the exception of Dakota. Locan is
classified as a collector, Shields is classified as an arterial and Dakota Avenue is a local street east of.
Temperance Avenue. The traffic generated by this project can be accommodated by the planned circulation
system with street improvements completed by the project as required by development standards, Urban
Growth Management (UGM) Service Delivery policies and Master Environmental Impact Report.No. 10130
mitigation measures. Sewer and water infrastructure availability and service demands have been verified by
the Department of Public Utilities with required facilities to be located in North Locan, North Temperance, and
East Shields Avenues.
Fresno City Planning Commission
On March 17, 2004, the Fresno City Planning Commission reviewed the proposed project and took action to
unanimously recommend approval of the rezone application. The Planning Commission also unanimously
approved the conditional use permit application and vesting tentative tract map. No appeal has been received
regarding the conditional use permit or the tract map;therefore, the commission's action on the conditional use
permit and the tract map applications is.final.
Water Resources and Public Water Supply
The Water Division of the Public Utilities Department estimates that the proposed residential project will have
an estimated peak water demand of 829 gallons per minute. The nearest presently available water service
lines are located in East Shields Avenue at North Armstrong Avenue and in East Dakota Avenue at North
Armstrong Avenue. It has been determined that there is an adequate source of water available to serve the
project with the implementation of UGM service delivery requirements and environmental impact mitigation
measures.

The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District(FMFCD) has indicated that this project can be accommodated
by the district. The developer will be required to construct FMFCD"Master Plan facilities"as determined by the
district.
Implementation of the 2025 Fresno General Plan policies,mitigation measures of Master Environmental Impact
Report No. 10130, the Water Resources Management Plan, and the mitigation measures identified by the
project environmental assessment/initial study will provide an adequate, reliable and sustainable water supply
for the project's urban domestic and public safety consumptive purposes. These measures include the
construction of one or more water supply well sites, including wellhead treatment facilities, which will be
dedicated to the City of Fresno. The applicant also must dedicate a water supply and treatment site for
installation of an above-ground water storage and treatment facility that will be installed and/or constructed by
the City.
Sewage Collection System Capacity
Several major facility improvement projects have been implemented at the City of Fresno's Regional
Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Facility in orderto accommodate the projected rates of population and
employment growth up to a projected population holding capacity of 590,000 people. These improvements
have been completed to provide an expanded wastewater treatment and reclamation capacity of 80 million
gallons per day(MGD)which is sufficient to accommodate continued planned urban development including the
proposed project.
While the proposed project may presently be accommodated by the Fowler Avenue Trunk Sewer, previous
public facility and environmental analyses have projected that the Fowler Trunk Sewer does not have sufficient
design capacity to accommodate the sewage flows that could be generated by full development of the McLane
and Roosevelt Community Plan areas, including the Southeast Growth Area.
To address this concern, the City of Fresno is pursuing several options to increase sewage collection and
treatment capacity for the eastern portion of the metropolitan area. The North Avenue Trunk Sewer has been
constructed to serve the easterly and southerly areas and supplement the other trunk sewers' capacity to
accommodate development of the east and southeast areas._ The City of Fresno has negotiated a temporary
exchange of sewer capacity with the City of Clovis for.its Fowler trunk sewer capacity. This temporary
exchange of capacity is conditioned upon Fresno replacing capacity exchanged in the Fowler trunk sewer with
capacity in future facilities to be determined. Necessary and appropriate fees to provide for the replacement
of said Fowler trunk capacity exchange have not yet been adopted by the City Council. Conditions of approval
include the payment of an "interim surety fee" for the future costs to provide replacement in the Fowler trunk
sewer to Clovis based on the capacity used by this project. Once the fee has been adopted by the City Council,
any fees paid in excess will be refunded to the"developer.
The Public Utilities Department has determined that the estimated average daily sewage flow generated by this"
project is 134,895 gallons per day. It has also been determined by Public Utilities Department staff;that
adequate sanitary sewer service is available to serve the project, subject to the.mitigation measures imposed
with the environmental assessment. The nearest public sanitary sewer main to serve this project is located in
East Shields and North Fowler Avenues.

Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System Traffic Capacity
The 2025 Fresno General Plan designates East Shields Avenue as an arterial street requiring 110-foot right-of-
way width and designates North Locan Avenue as a collector street which requires a 94-foot right-of-way.
Temperance Avenue is designated as an expressway streetwhich requires a minimum of 124-foot right-of-way.
The developer will be required to dedicate and construct improvements for Temperance, Shields and Locan
Avenues. Other improvements include the construction of curb, gutter, sidewalk, and transition paving within
the limits of the tract; construction of an underground street lighting system;and relinquishment of access rights
to North Temperance, North Locan and East Dakota Avenues for'all residential lots adjacent to these major
and local street frontages. These street improvements are outlined in more detail in the Vesting Tentative Tract
Map No. 5237/UGM Conditions of Approval dated March 17, 2004.
As required by the mitigation measures established by the certification of MEIR No. .10130, a traffic
assessment, dated November 5, 2003, was prepared by VRPA Technologies, Inc., to evaluate the number of
vehicle trips projected to be generated by the proposed project. Utilizing the Institute of Traffic Engineers(ITE)
Trip Generation Manual, Sixth Edition, and associated computer software together with the Council of Fresno
County Governments'(COG)computerized traffic model, this analysis predicts the number of vehicle trips that
will be generated from the proposed project and surrounding planned land uses, and the direction in which
these trips will travel.
Development of 390 single family residential dwelling units (the tract proposes 391 units but the study used
390) can be expected to generate an average of approximately 3,732 vehicle trips per day (VTD). Of these
vehicle trips it is projected that 293 will occur during the morning (7 to 9 a.m.) peak hour travel period and 395
will occur during the evening (4 to 6 p.m.)peak hour travel period. A modest proportion of these projected trips
are expected to access the planned 180 Freeway and Fowler Avenue interchange during morning peak period
(8 trips) and the evening peak period (11 trips) and the 180 Freeway and Temperance Avenue interchange
during morning peak period (3 trips) and the evening peak period (3 Trips). The eastern extension of Freeway
180 from Chestnut Avenue to the expressway transition at Temperance Avenue is expected to occur as
provided by the Measure C Transportation Sales Tax Expenditure Plan by the year 2006. This extension
includes the Fowler Avenue interchange which is expected to be designed with adequate capacity to
accommodate a twenty-year population and employment growth period.
The project traffic study further indicates that the majority of the peak hour vehicle trips are expected to utilize
Temperance Avenue to the north and south of the project site, and Shields Avenue to the west. Because much
of the immediately surrounding area (eastern most portion of the McLane Community Plan Area) is not
developed, the planned major street and intersection improvements have not yet been completed as required
by adopted plans, policies and development standards. However,the proposed project as well as other urban
land uses developed as planned by the 2025 Fresno General Plan will be required to construct the planned
major street system consistent with the public facility and service delivery requirements of the Urban Growth
Management Program. In addition, the developer of this project, in accordance with the mitigation measures-
of
easuresof Master Environmental Impact Report(No. 10130)which was certified by the Council with the adoption of the
2025 Fresno General Plan, will be required to pay impact fees specific to the traffic signalization of the major
street intersections.
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 6, Office of Intergovernmental Relations has
asserted that new development within.the McLane Community Plan contributes a substantial number of
additional vehicle trips during the peak hour traffic periods (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.)

which will impact the State Route (SR) 180 interchange at Fowler Avenue and the State Route (SR) 168
interchange at Ashlan Avenue. Caltrans estimates that a development of this size could generate
approximately 391 vehicle trips during peak travel times. It is, therefore, recommended by Caltrans that this
project contribute its proportional share for improvements to the affected interchanges.
Although the proposed project will marginally contribute to the peak capacity deficiencies of the freeway
system, major freeway improvements are the responsibility of Caltrans and any fee related assessments
imposed by Caltrans must comply with applicable legal parameters. The City has not recommended that this
state facility traffic impact fee be imposed as a condition of project approval, as it is not evident that Caltrans
has accurately documented a project description and cost, a reliable estimate of funding sources, a justifiable
nexus or connection between the project and the need for the state facility improvements, and the reasonable
proportionality of the project's share of the improvement costs that are necessary to justify the imposition of a
traffic impact fee for the improvement of State facilities. This conclusion is based upon submission by Caltrans
of varying descriptions of the necessary freeway improvements, the imprecise estimate of costs and probable
funding sources, and the lack of adequate information to 'comply with Fee Mitigation Act requirements
(California Government Code §§66000 et sequentes) applica!ble'to the City of Fresno. In the absence of this
documentation it is not legally permissible for the City to.impose the requested traffic impact fee.
An appropriate, reasonable and legally permissible method of addressing capacity deficiencies hasbeen .
presented to Caltrans for consideration. This method utilizes the master storm water drainage facility planning
and fee program established by the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control Agency as a model. Using this model,
Caltrans is responsible for providing a,.master facilities plan, development fee schedule and assurances of
compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements(Mitigation Fee Act-AB 1600)which apply to the City
of Fresno. Should Caltrans develop a master facilities plan and development impact fee program consistent
with this model, it will be applied to any final tract map or other applicable development entitlement for this
project.
It is also noted that the City of Fresno's staff has met with Caltrans representatives to review citywide impacts
on State facilities; the CEQA process; and the legal requirements for determining the nexus (demonstration of
the direct relationship between the project and the potential impact) and the proportionality (fair share
contribution towards mitigating the impact) required by State law. While the Caltrans representatives have
previously assured the City that Caltrans legal staff would provide evidence of compliance with State statutes,
no response has been received to date by the City of Fresno.
However, in response to these discussions, a partnership in planning grant was obtained through which the
City of Fresno and Caltrans will participate with other jurisdictions to complete a freeway deficiency study. ;This
study will detail the traffic impacts anticipated to occur to freeway facilities within the greater Fresno-Madera-
Clovis Metropolitan Area. This study will focus upon facilities identified to be most impacted by the projected
increases in traffic; identification of the sources of the vehicle traffic within the greater metropolitan area;'and
the improvements necessary to provide adequate vehicular capacity. Findings from this study may allow
proportionate traffic impact fees to be legally implemented by the cities of Fresno and Clovis as well as the-
County
heCounty of Fresno upon adoption by the respective jurisdictions.
Historical Resource
The proposed tract lies within the boundaries of the former Eggers Colony. George H. Eggers was one of the
San Francisco businessmen of German ancestry (often dubbed the "German Syndicate") who purchased
80,000 acres in this area from the federal government in 1860: In 1872 The Syndicate sold a portion ofthis
acreage to the Central Pacific Railroad for the new town of Fresno. The Eggers Colony was established east
.`` REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

of Fresno by 1891, on the 640 acres of Section 23, within Township 13 South. The Kings River and Fresno
Canal ran through the Colony and ditches presumably were constructed to deliver water to the 19 plus acre
parcels.
There is an existing single family residence located at 3183 North Locan Avenue, on the eastern boundary of
the proposed subdivision. The brick portion of the home appears to be the Colony pumphouse. A three-story
wood frame tankhouse was later added and is now engaged.to the brick building. The building was apparently
converted to a residence c1922 at which time a Craftsman style porch was appended to the facade. A 1979
addition to the north end of the building is compatible with the earlier construction.
The Historic Preservation Commission met on February 23, 2004 and reviewed the structure. The Historic
Preservation Project Manager prepared a report for the Commission which included forms for the State of
California Department of Parks and Recreation. The Commission took action to find the structure to be a
significant historical resource and determined it to potentially.be eligible for nomination to the local historic
register. However, the structure is not currently being nominated to this list although the property owner or
Commission may pursue that action in the future.
Streets and Access Points
This subdivision is proposed to have two access points to East Dakota Avenue and two access points to North
Locan Avenue. The Public Works Department, Transportation Planning Section has reviewed the rezone and
tentative tract map applications. They have also required that the proposed subdivision construct an access
point to the property to the south which would allow traffic to access East Shields Avenue. They have also
reviewed the traffic assessment, dated November 5, 2003, prepared by VRPA Technologies. Public Works
staff has determined that the streets adjacent to and near the subject site will be able to accommodate the
quantity and kind of traffic generated, subject to the dedication and improvement of adjacent portions of
Temperance, Locan, and Shields Avenues to the ultimate planned width.
LandscapingNValls
Given that the proposed subdivision abuts a planned arterial(Loran)and a planned expressway(Temperance),
the developer will be required to install 10-26 feet of landscaping along North Temperance and North Locan
Avenues. In addition, the applicant will be required to install a solid wall at the rear of the required landscape
setback which will mitigate the adverse effect of noise generated by vehicles traveling on the adjacent major
streets, as recommended by the acoustical analysis prepared by Brown-Buntin and-Associates, dated
October 16, 2003.
Lot Dimensions
The R-1/UGM zone district requires minimum lot sizes of 6,000 square feet for lots in the subdivision.
Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-03-204 was filed to allow reduced size lots for a portion of the
subdivision. The proposed reduced size lots meet the minimum size requirements (4,200 square feet) fora
planned development. In addition, the reduced size lots will also have reduced width (minimum width of 42
feet); however, the depth will meet the requirements (100 feet) of the R-1 zone district.

CONCLUSION
The appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with respect to its consistency with goals and
policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and McLane Community Plan;'its compatibility with surrounding
existing or proposed uses; and,'its avoidance or mitigation of potentially significant adverse environmental
impacts. These factors have been evaluated as described above and by the accompanying environmental
assessment and mitigated negative declaration. Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that
the proposed Rezone Application No: R-03-59 is appropriate for the project site.

Ms. Shelby Chamberlain
City of Fresno Development Department
2600 Fresno Street
Fresno, CA 93 721
Dear Ms. Chamberlain:
Caltrans has reviewed the vesting tentative map, rezone. and. use permit application
proposing the, development of a .391-lot subdivision on eighty acres 4located on the.southeast
corner of North,.Temperance and. East Dakota Avenues. The project. site is approximately,.,
2.5 miles north of the new State Route (SR) 180 interchange at Fowler Avenue 'and 4.5
miles east of. the-SR.;16.8 interchange at;.Ashlan Avenue. :Caltrans has,.the_, following
comments:
It is estimated that this development could generate approximately 391 trips during peak
PM travel times. It is further estimated that 40% of these trips (156 trips) would impact the
new SR 180/Fowler Avenue interchange and .5% (19.5 trips) would impact the SR
168/Ashlars Avenue interchange. However, the project application contains insufficient
information to make a conclusive determination on the impacts of this project to the'
transportation/circulation system. A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) is needed to assess the
project-related impacts on the State highway system and the pro-rata share towards area-
wide circulation improvements. Please reference the Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of
Traffic Impact Studies, dated December 2002, and send the scope of the TIS to Caltrans
before the traffic study is conducted.
It is Caltrans' understanding that the 2025 General Plan MEIR requires projects that will
produce 100 or more peak-hour trips (as this project will do) to evaluate the project's
contribution to increased peak-hour vehicle delay at major street intersections adjacent or
proximate to the project site (Mitigation Measure B-4). Has such an analysis been done?
Caltrans is concerned about the. contribution this project ;will have on. cumulatively
significant traffic impacts. Caltrans was not provided an opportunity to review.the Village
at Granite Park and the impacts from this project remain unknown. We also do not know
long term how significant the traffic impacts will be from the new Save Mart Center. In
"Caltrans improves inability across California"
Ms. Shelby Chamberlain

addition, two other subdivisions, one consisting of 302 homes at Fowler and Shields and
another of 347.homes at Armstrong and Shields have been proposed. This project, plus the
other four mentioned here, will impact State facilities. Without additional information,
Caltrans cannot make a determination on the severity of these impacts. The new General
Plan MEIR did not provide any analysis of cumulative impacts, while numerous projects
have since been approved without the City requiring either individual project-specific or
cumulative analyses. It is the City's responsibility under CEQA, as lead agency, to mitigate
for projects creating impacts to resources; including cumulative impacts.
Caltrans requests a scoping. meeting for this project. The following; CEQA Section
supports.our request:
21083,9: Lead Agency shall call scoping meeting, if Caltrans requests one.
(a)Notwithstanding Section 21.080.4, 21104, or 21153, a lead agency shall call
at least. one scoping meeting for either of the .following: (1) A proposed project
that may affect highways or other facilities under the jurisdiction of the .
Department.of Transportation if the meeting is requested by the departmerit..
The lead agency shall call the scoping meeting as soon aspossible, but riov
later than. -30 days after receiving the request from the Department of
Transportation.
Please let us know as soon as possible as to when the City of Fresno would like to.hold this
scoping meeting.
The City should consider a transit.alternative for this project. The project is of sufficient
size to support transit, and early planning could make such an alternative feasible. Caltrans
recommends that thisproject be routed to Fresno Area Express (FAX) staff_ for their review
and comment. The City should also consider adding a member of FAX to the Task Force
team currently meeting Monday mornings in the Planning Department. Please see
Attachment Number 1 for other recommended transportation alternatives.
Caltrans has made numerous requests for additional information on the City's 2025 General
Plan update. To date, we have not had a response from City staff. Please provide a written
response to the questions on Attachment Number 2 at your earliest convenience.
We request that this letter be made part of the perrnanent record for this project and that a
copy of our letter be included in the staff reports for both the City Council and the Planning
Commission. This will provide the, decision-making body and the general public with a
complete and accurate environmental evaluation for the project.

CALTRANS RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION
ALTERNATIVES
Ongoing development throughout the City of Fresno, including this project, will
make traffic operations significantly worse by adding considerably to delay and
congestion. Transit alternatives can help reduce congestion and delay and reduce
overall degradation of air quality and gridlocked intersections. The City of Fresno
should focus on ways to eliminate trips in addition to enhancing capacity.
Transportation alternatives the City should ,consider include standard highway
solutions along with the following:
1. Park and ride facilities on site or within the proximity of this project.
2. A study of the general accommodation and provision of mass transit in
this area to provide insight on ways of increasing transit usage.
3. Exploring "the potential for employer-sponsored carpoolslvanpools or monthly
transit passes for employees as well as including as a condition of project .
approval a covered transit stop as mitigation for project-related impacts to the
transportation/circulation system.
ATTACHMENT NUMBER 2
Caltrans requests answers to the following questions:
1. What actual timeframe does the new General Plan cover?
Caltrans has been asking the City for clarification on this issue due to
comments made by Mr. Nick Yovino at the General Plan Update hearing,
November 19, 2002, and subsequent comments made by various City
staff members. Mr. Yovino has stated that not all of the.. General Plan
will be implemented, hence the need to create the implementation plan
and the need to set priorities. Our question is what timeframe is involved
in implementing the entire.General Plan as written, not just portions of it.
2. Is it anticipated that full build-out of the General Plan will occur within
this timeframe?
See explanation for Number 1 above.
3: What is the estimated timeframe to achieve the population estimate as
included in the General Plan?
Caltrans has been asking the City for clarification on the population
estimate as it is unclear whether or not the City can achieve the estimate
without implementing all of the General Plan policies. Does this impact
the timeframe needed to achieve the population estimate?
4. Will the Mid-Rise/High-Rise Corridor exist within the estimated
timeframe to reach the above population estimate?
Caltrans has been asking the City for clarification on this issue due to
comments made by Mr. Nick Yovino and various City staff members
that the Mid-Rise/High-Rise Corridor could take as long as one hundred
years to implement. As this component of the General Plan appears to be
essential to accommodate the predicted City population and to make
transit a viable alternative, it is essential to reviewing agencies such as
Caltrans to understand the City's position on implementation.
5. Is the Mid-Rise/High-Rise Corridor necessary to accommodate the
estimated population?
In evaluating the General Plan, it appears that the Mid-Rise/High Rise Corridor
is essential to accommodate the predicted City population; however, based on
staff comments, Caltrans is uncertain of the City's intent.

Map No. 5237/UGM pertain to approximately 80 acres of property located at the 2nd Floor- City Hall
southeast corner of East Dakota and North Temperance Avenues. The rezone 2600 Fresno Street
application proposes to rezone the property from the R-A/UGM (Single Family- Fresno, California 93721-3603
Residential/Urban Growth Management) zone district to. the R-1/EA/UGM
(Single Family Residential/Ezpressway Area/Urban Growth Management)zone
district for the entire site. Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-03-204 has
been filed to allow reduced lot sizes (less than 6,000 square feet)for 214 lots of
the proposed 391-lot tentative tract map. Vesting Tentative :Tract No.
5237/UGM proposes to subdivide the subject property at a density of
approximately 4,9' units per acre totaling 391 single family residential lots.
The proposed project has been evaluated with respect to each item on the attached environmental checklist. This
completed checklist reflects comments of any applicable responsible agencies and research and analysis conducted
to examine the interrelationship between the proposed project and the physical environment. The information
contained in the Environmental Assessment Application,the checklist,and any attachments to the checklist,combine
to form a record indicating that an initial study has been completed in compliance with the State CEQA Guidelines and
the California Environmental Quality Act.
Any rating of "2" on the checklist indicates that a specific adverse environmental effect has been identified in a
category which is of .sufficient magnitude to be of concern. Such an effect may be inherent in the nature and
magnitude of the project or may be related to the design and characteristics of the individual project. Effects rated in
this manner are not sufficient in themselves to require the preparation of an Env)ronmental Impact Report and/or have
been mitigated to the extent feasible.
All new development activity and many non-physical projects contribute directly or indirectly toward a .cumulative
impact on the physical environment. The incremental effect contributed by this project toward such a cumulative effect
is not considered substantial in itself.
The proposed project is not expected to result in any significant adverse effects in terms of the factors considered on
the environmental checklist, including any such factors for which minor effects have been identified. Cumulative
effects of a significant nature are also not expected. The proposed project will not result in any adverse effects which
fall within the "Mandatory Findings of Significance" contained in Section 15065 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The
finding is therefore made that the proposed project will clearly not have a significant adverse effect on the environment.
This Mitigated Negative Declaration will be deemed final and effective if no appeal is filed in the manner specified-by
Section 12-505 of the Fresno Municipal Code.

effects or.the project may be adversely impacted by existing conditions as addressed below.
The project area is located within the easternmost portion of the City of Fresno's adopted Sphere of
Influence and Urban Boundary area, which is planned for medium density residential uses by the McLane
Community Plan, updated in 2002, and the 2025 Fresno General Plan, adopted in 2002.
Environmental documents for previous plan actions include Final EIR No. 10130 (2025 Fresno General

Plan). Additional environmental documents have been certified for major public facilities to accommodate
population growth and urban development including Final EIR No. 10118 (Fresno/Clovis Regional
Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Facility Capacity Expansion) and Final EIR No. SCH 95022029
(Fresno Metropolitan Water Resource Management Plan). These environmental impact analyses and
conclusions, together with supporting technical studies, address the impacts of population growth and the
necessary public facility capacity expansion associated with the urban development that will accommodate
this growth within the City of Fresno's 2025 General Plan Urban Area Boundary and Sphere of Influence.
Certification or approval of these environmental documents identified potentially significant adverse
environmental impacts, appropriate mitigation measures, and findings of overriding considerations with,
respect to unavoidable significant impacts. The following impacts were identified by City Council
Resolution No. 2002-378 certifying Final EIR No. 10130 (2025 Fresno General Plan).
1. Transportation and Circulation
2. Air Quality
. 3. Preservation of Agricultural Land
4. Noise
Resolution No.2002-378 also contains a statement of overriding considerations for the above unavoidable
significant effects. The benefits of implementing the 2025 Fresno General Plan outweigh unavoidable
significant effects.
1.0—TOPOGRAPHIC, SOIL, GEOLOGIC CONSIDERATIONS
There are no geologic hazards or unstable soil conditions known to exist on the project site. The existing
topography is relatively flat with no apparent unique or significant land forms such as vernal pools.
Development of the property requires compliance with grading and drainage standards of the City of
Fresno and Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District Standards. Grade differentials at property lines
must be limited to one foot or less, or a cross-drainage covenant must be executed with affected adjoining
property owners.
2.0-AIR QUALITY, 2.1—Substantial Indirect Source of Pollution
As a result of the San Joaquin Valley's climate and topography, the San Joaquin Valley Air.Basin (SJVAB)
is'predisposed to poor air quality. High mountain ranges surrounding the Valley frequently create air layer
inversions that prevent mixing of air masses. The large number of sunny days per year and high
temperatures in the summer favor the formation of ozone. In the winter, inversions form that often trap
particulate matter.
With respect to the Fresno area, the SJVAB has been classified as follows:
• Ozone. Recently reclassified from"serious nonattainment"to"severe nonattainment"by the U.S.E.P.A.
Classified as "severe nonattainment" by the State.
INITIAL STUDY
Environmental Assessment No. R-03-59/C-03-204/T-5237
Page 3
February 25, 2004
• PM,o. Classified as "serious nonattainment" at the federal level. Classified as "nonattainment" by the
State.
• CO. Recently reclassified from "nonattainment" to "attainment" by th U.S. E.P.A.
• . NO2. Unclassified/Attainment at.the federal level. Classified "attainment" at the State level.
• SO2. Unclassified at the federal level. Classified "attainment" at the State level.
• Sulfates. (No federal.standard.) Classified "attainment" at the State level.
• Lead. (No federal standard.) Classified "attainment" at the State level.
• 1-12S. (No federal standard.) Unclassified by the State..
• Visibility. (No federal standard.) Unclassified by the State.
In response to the SJVAB's nonattainment status for Ozone and PM,o the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution
Control District (SJVAPCD) has adopted air quality attainment plans as required by State and federal
regulations. Table VC-1 of MEIR No. 10130 lists the.air quality attainment plans that have been adopted
by the SJVAPCD.
The SJVAB reclassification from "serious nonattainment" to "severe nonattainment" at the federal-level
requires the SJVAPCD to prepare a new attainment plan, due to the U.S. E.P.A. in mid-year of 2003, that
demonstrates attainment by 2006. The new attainment plan will include more stringent permitting
requirements and a greater level of control on stationary source emissions within the District. Failure to
implement control measures may result in a loss of federal funding for highways and may require sanctions
on stationary sources.
As a result of the SJVAB's classification of"severe nonattainment" for ozone by the State, the valley is
subject to the most stringent requirements in the California Clean Air Act. These include providing for a
5% per year reduction in nonattainment emissions, or including "every feasible measure" in the Air Quality
Attainment Plan; establishing a permitting program that achieves a no-net-increase in stationary source
emissions; developing strategies to reduce vehicle trips and miles traveled; increasing average vehicle
ridership to 1.5 persons during commute hours; reducing population exposure to non-attainment pollutants
by 25%; establishing best.available retrofit control technology requirements for permitted sources; and
developing indirect and area source programs.
As stated in the current Air Quality Attainment Plan, it is SJVAPCD's strategy to.implement multiple tactics
or control measures. These measures are, in turn, implemented through the extensive collection of District
rules; regulations and permitting requirements established by the SJVAPCD.
The Air District has suggested that the URBEMIS 2001 computer model be used to project future.air
pollutant emissions that can be expected to be generated from vehicular traffic generated from the urban
uses developed on the project site. The computer model evaluated the following emissions: ROG
(Reactive Organic Gasses), NOX(Nitrogen Oxides),CO(Carbon Monoxide), PM,o(Particulates)and SOX .
(Sulfur Oxides) which are summarized below.

The URBEMIS 2001 model projections indicate that the proposed project will not exceed the threshold
limits for the emissions listed. This particular analysis included the prohibition of wood burning devices.
It also included the mitigation measures which are listed below.
A pedestrian/bicycle/equestrian trail is located along the west side of North Temperance Avenue to provide
a means of alternative transportation. Other mitigation measures are required sidewalks and pedestrian
paths (including along the eastern side of North Temperance Avenue), pedestrian connections, lighting
and other safety features for pedestrians and cyclists, street lighting and appropriate signage and
signalization that will promote pedestrian and other modes of transportation. To provide continuous travel,
bike lanes are also required throughout this area on all major streets. Mitigation measures also.include
the payment of the Indirect Source Review Fee, to be adopted by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution
Control District, for all units constructed after the fee is adopted.
The SJVAPCD has developed the San Joaquin Valley 1991 California Clean Air Act Air Quality Attainment
Plan (AQAP), which continues to project nonattainment for the above-noted pollutants in the future. This
project will be subject to applicable Air District rules, regulations, and strategies: In addition, the
construction phase of the project will be subject to the San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control
District(SJVAPCD.)Regulation VIII, Fugitive Dust Rules, related to the control of dust and fine particulate
matter. This rule mandates the implementation of dust control measures to reduce the potential for dust
to the lowest possible level. The plan includes a number of strategies to improve air quality including a
transportation control strategy and a vehicle inspection program. In addition, the District encourages
innovations in measures to reduce air quality impacts such as energy efficient building materials and
household appliances as well as site design features including landscaping, pedestrian and transit access
features.
The 2025 Fresno General Plan and the McLane Community Plan major street design standards and
bikeway plans provide for thorough distribution of alternative transportation improvements. These facilities -
assure convenient accessibility to neighborhood uses including schools, parks, and commercial centers
using alternative nonvehicular means of transportation. Neighborhood parks are acquired and developed
with urban growth management fees, frequently located in conjunction with an elementary school site that
facilitate related academic, athletic, recreational, and other community activities that promote combined -
trip-making and encourage the use of nonvehicular modes of transportation.
In addition, the City of Fresno continues to plan and implement the expansion of its fixed-route bus public
transportation system in order to serve developing urban areas. Adopted standards and conditions of

including the Master Environmental Impact Report No. 10130 for the 2025 Fresno General Plan, Final EIR
No.10100, Final EIR No.10117, Final EIR No. SCH 95022029 (Fresno Metropolitan Water Resource
Management Plan) et al. These conditions include water quality degradation due to DBCP, arsenic, iron,
and manganese concentrations; low water well yields; limited aquifer storage capacity and recharge .
capacity; and, intensive urban or semi-urban development occurring upgradient from the Fresno
Metropolitan Area. The proposed project places additional demand upon.peak water use capacity which
is one of the limitations of the groundwater supply aquifer underlying the eastern portion of the McLane
Community Plan area. The proposed project must contribute to short-term and long-range water supply
and distribution remediation projects in order to adequately address this deficiency.
In response to the need fora comprehensive long-range water supply and distribution strategy the Fresno
Metropolitan Water Resource Management Plan has been adopted and the accompanying Final EIR(SCH
#95022029)certified. The purpose of the management plan is to provide safe, adequate, and dependable
water supplies to meet the future needs of the metropolitan area in an economical manner; protect
groundwater .quality from further degradation and overdraft; and, provide a plan of reasonably
implementable measures and facilities. In addition,the proposed project must contribute to the completion
of the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District's master planned storm drainage facilities. Stormwater
ponding basins provide significant opportunity to recharge groundwater with collected.storm water run-off
and surface water obtained from the Fresno Irrigation District and United States Bureau of Reclamation
on the northern edge of the current urban limit boundary benefitting the urban reserve area.
The Water Division of the Public Utilities Department estimated that the proposed single-family residential
subdivision will have.an estimated peak water demand of 829 gallons per minute. In accordance with the
provisions of the 2025. Fresno General Plan and Master EIR No. 10130 mitigation measures, project
specific water supply and distribution requirements must assure that an adequate source of water is
available to.serve the project with the implementation of the mitigation measures noted below and are
required to be implemented by the attached mitigation monitoring checklist. In summary, these.mitigation
measures require participation in the development of a water supply and distribution system equal to the
project's estimated water consumption.
Implementation of the Fresno General Plan policies, the Water Resources Management Plan, and the
applicable mitigation measures of approved environmental review documents will address the issues of
providing an adequate, reliable, and sustainable water supply for the project's urban domestic and public
safety consumptive purposes.

. 4.0—PLANT LIFE: and 5.0—ANIMAL LIFE
There are no native plants or significant wildlife populations known to exist on the project site. The
extensive.landscaping proposed on the site will provide habitat for certain species of birds and small
animals suited for an urban environment.
4.2—Reduction in Acreage of Agricultural Crop
The subject site.has been historically utilized for agricultural purposes. The proposed urban development
of the project area will result in the elimination of agricultural opportunities in the future. However, the site
is located within the City of Fresno's Sphere of Influence, was annexed to the City of Fresno in 1961 and
has been considered appropriate for urban development by a succession of long-range general plans for
the metropolitan area over the past 40 years.
The 2025 Fresno General Plan and updated McLane Community Plan identified the project site as being
appropriate for urban uses, particularly for medium density residential uses. Urban development of the
site is now appropriate for consideration although development of the subject site will result in the loss of
land historically used for agricultural purposes. Previous environmental studies have examined the effects
of the loss of agricultural lands and concluded that agricultural lands within the immediate urban area as
a whole may be considered,to be less valuable for continued long-term agricultural use than alternative
areas outside of the metropolitan area. While urban development.of the existing agricultural land within
the City of Fresno's planned urban boundary is considered to be irreversible, it allows the implementation
of more effective water resource and air quality mitigation measures that reduce impacts upon agricultural
activities. This consideration is particularly.important when contiguous urban development is compared
with the alternative of the inefficient and discontinuous patterns of rural and low-density residential
development that have occurred within urban fringe areas.
.,In addition, the mitigation measures will include the requirement that a "right-to-farm" notice shall be
recorded with the final tract map and included with the individual property conveyance deed to notify new
residents that,agricultural operations occur in the area..

7.0-NOISE
The project site will be exposed to vehicle traffic noise due to its.location adjacent to a planned expressway
(North Temperance Avenue) along the west boundary of the tract and a planned collector street (North
Locan Avenue) along the east boundary of the tract. Expressways are typically developed with six lanes
of travel(three in each direction), a median island, single or dual left turn lanes at intersections., and access
is limited to.intersections with major streets, approximately one every half-mile. . They are designed to
accommodate average vehicle daily trips of 56,000. Collector streets are typically developed with four
travel lanes (two in each direction) with single left turn lanes at intersections. Collector streets have the
capacity to accommodate average vehicle daily trips of 24,000, although projected daily traffic volumes
are less than these maximum capacities,
The City of Fresno Noise Element of the General Plan identifies the maximum appropriate noise level
exposure for outdoor activity areas to be 60 dB DNL, and for interior living areas a noise level exposure
of not more than 45 dB DNL. Portions of the site are within a 65 or 70 decibel contour according to:the
Master Environmental Impact Report for the 2025 Fresno General Plan. This condition requires that an
acoustical analysis for the project be submitted, evaluated, and accepted by the Planning and
Development Department. The acoustical analysis performed by Brown-Buntir and Associates for:the
project found the noise levels to be substantial in a report dated October 16, 2003.
The acoustical analysis used the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Highway Traffic Noise
Prediction Model in addition to field measurements at the project site. The outdoor noise level, without a
sound attenuation wall, is 69.8 dB Ldn for buildings located at the closest proposed building setbacks along
Temperance Avenue. The study concludes that an 10-foot high wall is.required along Temperance to fully
reduce the noise to acceptable levels. The solid wall barrier would reduce the exterior noise level to 59.6
dB at the first floor.height. Indoor noise standards will be met with the construction of the sound walls and
through building code requirements.

9.0—LAND USE
The proposed rezone is consistent with the planned land use of both the 2025 Fresno General Plan and
the McLane Community Plan. Both plans designate the site for medium density residential land uses.
Table 2 of the 2025 Fresno General Plan states that the R-1 zone district is consistent with the medium -
density residential land uses. It is also important to note that the planned use and proposed zone district
are compatible with the applicable community plan goals, policies and implementation measures intended
to provide for the efficient use of natural resources and public facilities; the construction of adequate:public
improvements by the development which generates the demand for these facilities; and, the
implementation of a functional land use pattern consistent with the population and economic growth
projections of the Fresno General Plan's growth projections.

10.0—TRANSPORTATION AND CIRCULATION; 10.1 &10.2 Generation of Vehicular Traffic Sufficient
to Cause Capacity Deficiencies and Cumulative Increase in Traffic on a Major Street for which
Capacity Deficiencies are Proiected
The development of the project site with the proposed 391 single family residences, and the surrounding
planned urban uses designated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan and McLane Community Plan, will be
required to complete the planned major street network in accordance with applicable development.policies
and standards including the Urban Growth Management program. Both plans designate North
Temperance as an expressway and North Locan Avenue as a collector street. The city's public works
development standards provide for expressways to be developed with three lanes of travel in each
direction separated by a median island. Expressways also have very limited access. The general plan
designates North Locan Avenue as a collector street, which would typically be developed with two travel
lanes in each direction but without a median island. All street standards provide for a widened pavement
width at major street intersections to allow for exclusive left-turn and right-turn lanes as well as bus bays
or turnouts. East Shields Avenue, a planned arterial, is also near the site and is expected to be used
frequently by the future residents of the proposed project. Arterial streets are typically developed with four
to six travel lanes (two or three in each direction) and a center median island with single or dual left turn
lanes at intersections. Arterial streets have the capacity to accommodate average daily vehicle trips of
36,000.
The Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) No. 10130 prepared for the 2025 Fresno General Plan
(incorporated herein by reference)utilized macro-level traffic analysis techniques to examine the traffic flow
level of service (LOS) for major street segments that would occur in the year 2025. This analysis utilized
the.unadjusted COG traffic model projected traffic volumes and the Florida Tables, which are an accepted
national tabular standard of the Highway Capacity Manual(HCM)methodology. LOS is a characterization
of.a street's traffic flow operations that range from an LOS of A (reflecting a very low traffic volume with
no travel delay)to an LOS of F(reflecting a very high traffic volume with substantial congestion and travel
delay).
The most substantial traffic capacity deficiencies are predicted to occur within the eastern portion of*the
Fresno Metropolitan Area along Clovis Avenue and on Shields Avenue immediately east of Clovis Avenue.
A substantial proportion of these street deficiencies are the result of land use decisions, development
practices and public perceptions that have affected land use distribution throughout the region. These
factors also include state planning mandates such as the need to accommodate projected population
growth consistent with State planning law including the housing element mandates(California Government
Code Sections 65583 through 65895.5). These decisions include the practice of segregating residential,
commercial and industrial land uses so that industrial and other employment intensive uses were located
in the southern portion of the metropolitan area, while predominantly residential uses were located in the
middle and northern sectors.
Large employment intensive uses attract trips from throughout the region and thus might facilitate the use
of.public transportation or other alternatives to the use of the private vehicle. However, It is apparent that -
a substantial,portion of the predicted vehicle trips impacting the plan area's major street system would be
generated from land uses that are not equitably contributing to the cost of constructing adequate street
capacity or other transportation systems. Widely dispersed semi-urban or rural residential developments
occurring beyond the Fresno Metropolitan Area are poorly suited for alternative forms of public
transportation and typically would not contribute to the construction of additional major street capacity.:
The traffic analysis prepared for the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the associated Master Environmental
Impact Report (MSIR) No. 10130 utilized the Fresno County Peak Hour Travel Model of the Council of
INITIAL STUDY
Environmental Assessment No. R-03-59/C-03-204/T-5237

February 25, 2004
Fresno County Council of Governments (COG) to project average daily vehicle trip (ADT) volumes on
major streets. With development'of the project site and surrounding planned urban uses designated by
the general plan through the year 2025,projected ADT volumes of 26,800± on Shields Avenue, 600±on
Locan Avenue and 40,500± on Temperance Avenue can be anticipated. With anticipated improvements
completed by the development.of planned land uses as.'required by city standards and policies, these
streets are expected to ultimately function with a level of service(LOS)of D and Fon Shields Avenue, LOS
C on Locan Avenue, and LOS C and F on Temperance. While an LOS of D is endorsed by general plan
policy as the preferable standard, it is acknowledged that certain identified segments and corresponding
major street intersections will function at a less desirable level of service (E or F) during the peak travel
periods of the day. This condition occurs along Temperance Avenue, which is not presently congested
but are expected to function with an LOS of F by the year 2025.
As required by the mitigation measures established by the certification of MEIR 10130, a traffic .
assessment was prepared by VRPA Technologies, Inc., dated November 5, 2003,to evaluate the number
of vehicle trips projected to be generated by the proposed project. Utilizing the Institute of Traffic
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, Sixth Edition, and associated computer software together with
the Council of Fresno County Governments'(COG) computerized traffic model, ;this analysis predicts the
number of vehicle trips that will be generated from the proposed project and surrounding planned land
uses, and the direction in which these trips will travel.
The traffic study based the model run on the development of the site with 390 single family residential
dwelling units. The proposed project can be expected to generate an average of approximately
3,732 vehicle trips per day (VTD). -Of these vehicle trips it is projected that 293 will occur during the
morning (7 to 9 a.m.) peak hour travel period .and 395 will occur during the evening (4 to 6 p.m.) period
hour travel period. A modest proportion of these projected trips are expected to access the planned 180
Freeway and Fowler Avenue interchange during morning peak period(8.trips)and the evening peak period
(1.1trips)and the 180 Freeway and-Temperance Avenue interchange during morning peak period(3 trips)
and the evening peak period (3 Trips). The eastern extension of Freeway 180 from Chestnut Avenue to
the expressway transition at Temperance Avenue is expected.to occur as provided by the Measure C
Transportation Sales Tax Expenditure Plan by the year 2006. This extension includes the Fowler Avenue
interchange which is expected to be designed with adequate capacity to accommodate a twenty-year
population and employment growth period.
The project traffic study further indicates that the majority of the peak hour vehicle trips are expected to
utilize Temperance Avenue to the north and south of the project site, and Shields Avenue to the west.
Because much of the immediately surrounding area(eastern most portion of the McLane Community Plan
Area.) is not .developed, the planned major street and :intersection improvements have not yet been
completed as required by adopted plans, policies and development standards. However, the proposed
project as well as other urban land uses developer; as planned by the 2025 Fresno General Plan will be
required to construct the planned major street system consistent with the public facility and service delivery
requirements of the Urban Growth Management Program. In addition, the developer of this project, in
accordance with the mitigation measures of Master Environmental Impact Report(No. 10 130)which was _
certified by the Council with the adoption of the 2025 Fresno General Plan, will be required to pay impact
fees specific to the traffic signalization of the major street intersections.
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 6, Office of Intergovernmental Relations
has asserted that new development within the McLane Community Plan contributes a substantial number
of additional vehicle trips during the peak hour traffic.periods(7:00 am to 9:00 am and 4:00 pm.to 6:00 pm)
which will impact the State Route (SR) 180 interchanges at Fowler and Temperance Avenues. Caltrans
estimates that a development of this size could generate approximately 175.5 vehicle trips during peak
INITIAL STUDY
' Environmental Assessment No. R-03-59/C-03-204/T-5237
Page 10
February 25, 2004
travel times to these interchanges. It is, therefore, recommended by Caltrans that this project contribute
its proportional share for improvements to the affected interchanges. It is noted that the traffic analysis
completed by VRPA Technologies only identifies 25 trips to the two ramps during the a.m. and p.m. peak
hour periods.
Although the proposed project will marginally contribute to the peak capacity deficiencies of the freeway
system, major freeway improvements are the responsibility of Caltrans and any fee related assessments
imposed by Caltrans must comply with applicable legal parameters. The City has not recommended that
this state facility traffic.impact fee be imposed as a condition of project approval, as it is not evident that
Caltrans has accurately documented a project description and cost,a reliable estimate of funding sources,
a justifiable nexus or connection between the project and the need for the state facility improvements, and
the reasonable proportionality of the project's share of the improvement costs that are necessary to justify
the imposition of a traffic impact fee for the improvement of State facilities. This conclusion is based upon
Caltrans's submission of varying descriptions of the necessary freeway improvements, the imprecise
estimate of costs and probable funding sources, and the lack of adequate information to comply with Fee
Mitigation Act requirements (California Government Code §§ 66000 et sequentes) applicable to the City
of Fresno. In the absence of this documentation it is not Legally permissible for the City to impose.the
requested traffic impact fee.
State highway facilities appear to have failed to meet 20-year capacity design criteria during a period of
time when the area's pace of population growth decreased to a rate well below previous state projections.
This highway facility "under-design" and consequently the capacity deficiencies, which may now, be
prematurely occurring, are at least partially the result of resource.allocation decisions made by the State
of.California rather than land use decisions made by the City of Fresno.
An appropriate, reasonable and legally permissible method of addressing capacity deficiencies has been
presented to Caltrans for consideration. This method utilizes the master storm water drainage facility
planning and fee program established by the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control Agency as a model. Using
this model, Caltrans is responsible for providing a master facilities plan, development fee schedule and
assurances of compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements (Mitigation Fee Act - AB 16,00)
which apply to the City of Fresno. Should Caltrans develop a master facilities plan and development
impact fee program consistent with this model, it will be applied to any final tract map or other applicable
development entitlement.for this project.
It is also noted that the City of.Fresno's staff has met with Caltrans representatives to.review citywide
impacts on State facilities; the CEQA process; and the legal requirements for determining the nexus
(demonstration of the direct relationship between the project and the potential impact) and the
proportionality (fair share contribution towards mitigating the impact) required by State law. While the
Caltrans representatives have previously assured the City that Caltrans legal staff would provide evidence
of compliance with State statutes, no response has been received to date by the City of Fresno.
However, in response to these discussions, a partnership in planning grant was obtained through which _
the City of Fresno and Caltrans will participate with other jurisdictionsto complete a freeway deficiency
study. This study will detail the traffic impacts anticipated to occur to freeway facilities within the greater
Fresno-Madera-Clovis Metropolitan Area. This study will focus upon facilities identified to be most
impacted by the projected increases in traffic; identification of the sources of the vehicle traffic within the
greater metropolitan area; afld the improvements necessary to provide adequate vehicular capacity.
Findings from this study may allow proportionate traffic impact fees to be legally implemented by the.cities
of Fresno and Clovis as well as the County of Fresno upon adoption by the respective jurisdictions.

In order to alleviate the impact of this project upon the City of Fresno's street system and to provide for
a smooth flow of traffic to and from the project, the property owner/developer will be required to dedicate
a portion of the.subject sites for street purposes in accordance with adopted plans and policies such as
the Major Street and Highway Plan, the Circulation Element of the General Plan, an Official Plan Line, a
Director's Determination, or a local street public improvement standard as determined by the Director.
Each development must also construct a portion of the planned major street system, including off-site
extensions as required by Urban Growth Management Policies. In addition, the residents of the.proposed
project will contribute to the construction of state highway facilities and regionally significant streets through
the Measure "C" local transportation sales tax program.
The project street improvement requirements include the center two travel lanes of Temperance and Locan
Avenues adjacent to the project site as well as the construction-of two center travel lanes for Shields
Avenue between Locan and Fowler Avenues. Mitigation measures from the traffic study prepared by
VRPA Technologies for the project also include the payment of the project's fair share for intersection _
improvements, including traffic control signalization, at Fowler/Shields, Temperance/Shields,
Armstrong/Shields and Temperance/Dakota.
These and other street plans are the product of careful planning that projects traffic capacity needs based
on the densities and intensities of planned land uses anticipated at build-out of the planned area. These `
streets will provide adequate access to and recognize.the traffic generating characteristics of individual
properties and, at the same time, afford the community an adequate and efficient circulation system:

11.1—Availability-cif Fire Protection
The project site is located within the city's Urban Growth Management Area and must comply with the
applicable service delivery requirements necessary to provide not less than the minimum acceptable level
of fire protection facilities and services appropriate for urban uses. The proposed project is located within
three miles of City of Clovis Fire Station No. 33.
11.4—Overcrowding of School Facilities
The project site is served by the Clovis Unified School District and is presently within the attendance
boundaries of Freedom Elementary School(Gettysburg and Temperance Avenues), Reyburn Intermediate
School and Clovis East High School. Reyburn Intermediate School and Clovis East High School are both
located in the Reagan Educational Complex which is bound by Ashlan, Gettysburg, Locan and .DeWolf
Avenues.

Because of the sustained growth occurring within the district boundaries, the school district has advised
of the following conditions.
1. Future adjustments of school attendance areas could occur such that students residing in the
proposed project will attend an elementary school other than Freedom and that students may
attend more than one elementary school during their elementary school years.
2. Bus transportation is presently provided for grades K-6 students residing further than one mile
.from school and for grades 7-12 students residing further than two and one-half miles from school.
3. The district has adopted development fees in accordance with current state law and currently
levies a development fee of$2.53 per square foot for residential development. Development of
the project site will be subject to the fees in place at the time fee certificates are obtained.
In addition, the district has requested that the owner/subdivider provide the above information to all
prospective purchasers of property within the proposed project.
11.6—Availability of Sewer Lines of Adequate Capacity
Several major_facility improvement projects have been implemented at the City of Fresno's Regional
Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Facility in order to accommodate the 1984 Fresno General Plan's
projected population holding capacity of 588,000 people. These improvements have been completed to
provide an expanded wastewater treatment and reclamation capacity of 80 million gallons per day(MGD)
which is sufficient to accommodate continued planned urban development including the proposed project.
While the proposed project may presently be accommodated by the Fowler Avenue Trunk Sewer, previous
public facility and environmental analyses have projected that the Fowler Avenue Trunk Sewer does not
have sufficient design capacity to accommodate the sewage flows that could be generated by full
development of the McLane Community Plan area and the Southeast Growth Area.
To address this concern, the City of Fresno is pursuing several options to increase sewage collection and
treatment capacity for the eastern portion of the metropolitan area. The North Avenue Trunk Sewer.has
been constructed to serve the easterly and southerly areas and supplement the other trunk sewers'
capacityto accommodate development of the east and southeast areas. The. City of Fresno has
negotiated a temporary exchange of sewer capacity with the City of Clovis for its Fowler trunk sewer
capacity. This temporary exchange of capacity is conditioned upon Fresno replacing capacity exchanged .
in the Fowler trunk sewer with capacity in future facilities to be determined. Necessary and appropriate
fees to provide for the replacement said Fowler trunk capacity exchange have not yet been adopted by the
City Council. Mitigation measures and tract map conditions of approval include a requirement that the
developer pay an "Interim Fee Surety'. Any amount paid above and beyond the required fee surety shall
be refunded once the fee has been adopted.
The Public Utilities Department has determined that the estimated average daily sewage flow generated
by this project is 134,895 gallons per day. It has also been determined by Public Utilities Department staff
that adequate sanitary sewer service is available to serve the project, subject to the mitigation measures
imposed with the environmental assessment. The nearest public sanitary sewer main to serve this project
is located'in East Shields and North Fowler Avenues.

11.7—Availability of Storm Water Drainage Facilities On or Off Site
In order to avoid or reduce the discharge of pollutants into the storm water sewer system, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency requires that a Notice of Intent for a general National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System permit be filed for 3 variety of industrial uses and for any construction site of five or
more acres of land. The property owner of this development site has been informed of that requirement
and of.h;s,and any business owner's, responsibility to ensure that the Notice of Intent is filed in accordance
With the regulations published in Volume 55, No. 222, of the Federal Register.
14.0—HISTORICAL/ARCHAEOLOGICAL
14.1 Removal of Historic Building, Disruption of Archaeological Site
The proposed tract lies within the boundaries of the former Eggers Colony. George H. Eggers was one
of the San Francisco businessmen of German ancestry (often dubbed the "German Syndicate") who
purchased 80,000 acres in this area from the federal government in 1860. In 1872 The Syndicate sold a
portion of this acreage to the Central Pacific Railroad for the new town of Fresno.
The 1880s were prosperous years and the desert was turned into profitable farmland with the introduction
of irrigation and agricultural colonies. The model for the system that ultimately served the San Joaquin
Valley was the Central California Colony, established in 1875 three miles south of Fresno. Bernhard
Marks;a German immigrant, and M.Theo Kearney,son of an Irish laborer,approached wealthy landowner
William S. Chapman and.pitched the idea of an irrigated colony of self-sufficient farm families. Marks
surveyed six sections of land owned by Chapman and investor William Martin and subdivided the land into
192 20-acre parcels. Three laterals from the Kings River and Fresno Canal were extended into the tracts
and water rights were sold to the prospective farmers. Twenty-three miles of roads were laid out and
bordered with trees. One important building on irrigated colonies was the brick pumphouse. By 1903 there
were 48 separate colonies or tracts in Fresno County representing approximately 71,080 acres. These
Colonies helped to break up the vast estates and initiated what agricultural historian Donald Pisani has
termed "the horticultural small-farm phase" of California agriculture.
The Eggers Colony was established east of Fresno by 1891, on the 640.acres of Section 23, within
Township 13 South. The Kings River and Fresno Canal ran through the Colony and ditches presumably
were constructed to deliver water to the 19 plus acre parcels.
One historic property has been identified within the tract boundaries, a converted single family residence
located.at 3183 N. Locan Avenue (APN: 313-420-17). The:brick portion of the home appears to be the
Colony pumphouse. A three-story wood frame tankhouse was later added and is now engaged to the brick
building. The building was apparently converted to a residence c1922 at which time a Craftsman style

porch was appended to the fagade. A 1979 addition to the north end of the building is compatible with the
earlier construction.
The City of Fresno's Historic Preservation Project Manager prepared an evaluation of the property using
DPR survey forms (as attached). At a public hearing on February 23d 2004, the City of Fresno Historic
Preservation Commission concurred with the staff evaluation that the home at 3183 N. Locan is eligible
for the Local Register of Historic Resources under Criterion 1 and Criterion 3.
Historic Resource Impacts
As a result of implementation of the proposed project, there is a potential for a significant adverse impact
to this resource. Without mitigation, this impact would warrant an Environmental Impact Report. There
are two options available through project changes and conditions to mitigate this impact.
Option 1: The first is to retain the home in place on its current site, with enough land and landscaping to
preserve its historic character and context. This option would allow the developers to either sell the home
as a single-family,residence, or develop the site as open space, with the home converted to use as a
community center.'
Option 2: Relocation of historic properties is a less desirable alternative but can occur to prevent their
demolition. Relocation would not result in an adverse change to this home's eligibility to the Local Register
of Historic Resources (and potentially to the California Register) if the new location is compatible with the
original character and use of the historical resource. In relocation, the resource would need to maintain
its character defining features (thus the architectural features that convey its historic significance) and
retain compatibility of orientation,setting and general environment. As an example, relocation of the home
to an urban in-fill lot would not be a compatible setting and environment.
Recommendation
Staff recommends,that the developers make a good faith effort to explore Option 1. The home sits on the
eastern edge of the proposed subdivision, and ideally should be maintained on site.
However, if there is no prudent.and feasible way to accommodate retention of the home on site, staff
supports the relocation of the home to a compatible setting. The attached mitigation measures will apply
if Option 2 is selected.
i
Archaeological Sites
There are no adjacent historical or archaeological sites. To ensure that any possible sites will be
protected, the following conditions have been added to this special permit approval:

ENVIRONMENTAL FINDING
The initial study prepared for Environmental Assessment No. R-03-59/C-03-204/T-5237 considered. potential
environmental impacts associated with the subject rezone, conditional use permit and tentative tract map
applications. The study indicates that the project,if approved,would conform to the land use designation and land
use policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan; however, it is not within the scope of Master Environmental Impact
Report No. 10130. Therefore, staff has issued a finding of a mitigated negative declaration:which incorporates
mitigation measures from MEIR No. 10130 as well as project specific mitigation measures. The mitigated negative
declaration was issued on February 24,2004. This environmental finding was properly noticed with no comments
filed within the 20-day review and comment period.
BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
The applicant, Vic.Deverian, has filed Rezone Application No. R-03-59, Conditional Use Permit Application No.
C-03-204 and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5237/UGM for 80 acres of property located at the southeast corner
of East Dakota and North Temperance Avenues. The rezone application is requesting a zone change from the
R-A/UGM (Single Family Residential-Agricultural/Urban Growth Management) zone district to the R-1/EA/UGM
(Single Family Residential/Expressway Area/Urban Growth Management) zone district. Conditional Use Permit

Application No. C-03-204 proposes to allow 214 lots of the proposed 391-lot single family residential subdivision
to have reduced lot areas (less than 6,000 square feet) and reduced lot widths (less than 60 feet). Vesting
Tentative Tract Map No.52.37/UGM is proposing to subdivide the subject property into 391 single family residential
lots for a density.of 4.9 units per acre.
On November 19, 2002, the City Council, through Resolution No. 2002-379, adopted the 2025 Fresno General
Plan.which updated the McLane Community Plan. The updated Community Plan designates the subject property
for medium density residential.land use. The applicant wishes to pursue development of.the subject property with
391 single family homes. The requested R-1/EA/UGM zone district conforms to this medium density residential
land use designation as indicated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan's "Planned Land Use and Zone District
Consistency Matrix".
Surrounding existing land uses are characterized by vacant, agriculture and rural residences to the north, south,
west and east. There are two single family residential subdivisions which have been approved to the west and
a mini-storage facility is proposed for land to the north. Access to the subject site will be from North Locan, East
Shields and.East Dakota Avenues,which are major streets, with the exception of Dakota. Locan is classified as
a collector, Shields is classified as an arterial and Dakota Avenue is a local street east of Temperance Avenue.
The traffic generated by this project can be accommodated by the planned circulation system with street
improvements completed by the project as required by development standards, Urban Growth Management
(UGM)Service Delivery policies and Master Environmental Impact Report No. 10130 mitigation measures. Sewer
and water infrastructure availability and service demands have been verified by the Department of Public Utilities
with required facilities to be located in North Locan, North Temperance.and East Shields Avenues.
Water Resources and Public Water Supply
The Water Division of the Public Utilities Department estimates that the proposed residential project will have an
estimated peak water demand of 829 gallons per minute. The nearest presently available water service lines are
located in East Shields Avenue at North Armstrong Avenue and in East Dakota Avenue at North Armstrong
Avenue. It has been determined that there is an adequate source of water available to serve the project with the
implementation of UGM service delivery requirements and environmental impact mitigation measures.
The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District(FMFCD)has indicated that this project can be accommodated by
the district. The developer Wil be required to construct FMFCD "Master Plan facilities" as determined by the
district.
Implementation of the 2025 Fresno General Plan policies., mitigation measures of Master Environmental Impact
Report No. 10130,the Water Resources Management Plan, and the mitigation measures identified by the project
environmental assessment/initial study will provide an adequate, reliable and sustainable water supply for the
project's urban domestic and public safety consumptive purposes. These measures include the construction of
one or more water supply well sites, including wellhead treatment facilities, which will be dedicated to the City of
Fresno: The applicant also must dedicate a water supply and treatment site for installation of an above-ground
water storage and treatment facility that will be installed and/or constructed by the City.
Sewage Collection System Capacity
Several major facility improvement projects have been implemented at the City of Fresno's Regional Wastewater
Treatment and Reclamation Facility.in order to accommodate the projected rates of population and employment
growth up to a projected population holding capacity of 590,000 people.. These improvements have been

completed to provide an expanded wastewater treatment and reclamation capacity of 80 million gallons per day
(MGD)which is sufficient to accommodate continued planned urban development including the proposed project.
While the proposed project may presently be accommodated by the Fowler Avenue Trunk Sewer, previous public
facility and environmental analyses have projected that the Fowler Trunk Sewer does not have sufficient design
capacity to accommodate the sewage flows that could be generated by full development of the McLane and
Roosevelt Community Plan areas, including the Southeast Growth Area.
To address this concern, the City of Fresno is.pursuing several options to increase sewage collection and
treatment capacity for the eastern portion of the metropolitan area. The North Avenue Trunk Sewer has been
constructed to serve the easterly and southerly areas and supplement the other trunk sewers' capacity to
accommodate development of the east and southeast areas. The City of Fresno has negotiated a temporary
exchange of sewer capacity with the City of Clovis for its Fowler trunk sewer capacity. This temporary exchange
of capacity is conditioned upon Fresno replacing capacity exchanged in the Fowler trunk sewer with capacity in
future facilities to be determined. Necessary and appropriate fees to provide for the replacement of said Fowler
trunk capacity..exchange have not yet been adopted by the City Council. Conditions of approval include the
payment of an "interim surety fee for the future costs to provide replacement in the Fowler trunk sewer to Clovis
based on the capacity used by this project. Once the fee has been adopted by the City Council, any fees paid in
excess will be refunded to the developer.
The.Public Utilities Department has determined that the estimated average daily sewage flow generated by this
project is 134,895 gallons per day. It has also been determined by Public Utilities Department staff that adequate
sanitary sewer service is available to serve the project, subject to the mitigation measures imposed with the
environmental assessment. The nearest public sanitary sewer main to serve this project.is located in East Shields
and North.Fowler Avenues.
Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System Traffic Capacity
The 2025 Fresno General Plan designates East Shields Avenue as an arterial street requiring 110-foot right-of-
way .width and designates North Locan Avenue as a collector street which requires a.94-foot right-of-way.
Temperance Avenue is designated as an expressway street which requires a minimum of 124-foot right-of-way.
The developer will be required to.dedicate and construct improvements for Temperance, Shields and Locan
Avenues. Other improvements include the construction of curb, gutter, sidewalk, and transition paving within the
limits of the tract; construction of an underground street lighting system; and relinquishment of access rights to
North Temperance, North Locan and East Dakota Avenues for all residential lots adjacent to these major and local
street frontages. These street improvements are outlined in more detail in the Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.
5237/UGM Conditions of Approval dated March 17, 2004.
As required by the mitigation measures established by the certification of MEIR No. 10130, a traffic assessment,
dated November 5, 2003, was prepared by VRPA Technologies, Inc., to evaluate the number of vehicle trips
projected to be generated by the proposed project. Utilizing the Institute of Traffic Engineers(ITE)Trip Generation
Manual, Sixth Edition, and associated computer software together with the Council of Fresno County
Governments' (COG) computerized traffic model,.this analysis predicts the number of vehicle trips that will be
generated from the proposed project and surrounding planned land uses, and the direction in which these trips
will travel.
Development of 390 single family residential dwelling units (the tract proposes 391 units but the study used 390)
can be expected to generate an average of approximately 3,732 vehicle trips per day(VTD). Of these vehicle trips

it is projected that 293 will occur during the morning(7 to 9 a.m.)peak hour travel period and 395 will occur.during
the evening (4 to 6 p.m.) peak hour travel period.. A modest proportion of these projected trips are expected to
access the planned 180 Freeway and Fowler Avenue interchange during morning peak period (8 trips) and the
evening peak period (11 trips)and the 180 Freeway and Temperance Avenue interchange during morning peak
period (3 trips) and the evening peak period (3 Trips). The eastern extension of Freeway 180 from Chestnut
Avenue to the expressway transition at Temperance Avenue is expected to occur as provided by the Measure C
Transportation Sales Tax Expenditure Plan by the year 2006. This extension includes the Fowler Avenue
interchange which is expected to be designed with adequate capacity to accommodate a twenty-year population
and employment.g rowthperiod.
The project traffic study further indicates that the majority of the peak hour vehicle trips are expected to utilize
Temperance Avenue to the north and south of the project site, and Shields Avenue to the west. Because much
of the immediately surrounding area(eastern most portion of the McLane Community Plan Area)is not developed,
the planned major street and intersection improvements have not yet been completed as required by adopted
plans, policies and development standards. However, the proposed project as well as other urban land uses
developed as planned by the 2025 Fresno General Plan will be required to construct the planned major street
system consistent with the public facility and service delivery requirements of the Urban Growth Management
Program. In addition, the developer of this project, in accordance with the mitigation measures of Master
Environmental Impact Report(No. 10130)which was certified by the Council with the adoption of the 2025 Fresno
General Plan, will be required to pay impact fees specific to the traffic signalization of the major street
intersections.
The.California Department of Transportation (Caltrans),:District 6, .Office of Intergovernmental Relations has
asserted that new development within the McLane Community Plan contributes a substantial number of additional
vehicle trips during the peak hour traffic periods (7:00 am to 9:00 am and.4:00 pm to.6:00.pm)which will impact
the.State Route (SR) 180 interchange at Fowler Avenue.and the State Route (SR) 168 interchange at.Ashlan
Avenue. Caltrans estimates that a development of this size could generate approximately 391 vehicle trips during
peak.travel times. It is, therefore, recommended by Caltrans that this project contribute its proportional share for
improvements to.the affected interchanges.
Although the proposed project will marginally contribute to the peak capacity deficiencies of the freeway system,
major freeway improvements are the responsibility of Caltrans and any fee related assessments imposed by
Caltrans must comply with:applicable legal parameters. The City has not recommended that this state. facility
traffic impact fee be imposed as a condition of project approval, as'it is not evident that Caltrans has.accurately
documented a.project description and cost,a reliable estimate of funding sources,a justifiable nexus or connection
between the project and the need for the state facility improvements, and the reasonable proportionality of the
project's share of the improvement costs that are necessary to justify the imposition of a traffic impact fee for the
improvement of State,facilities. This conclusion is based upon Caltrans's submission of varying descriptions of
the necessary freeway improvements;the imprecise estimate of costs and probable funding sources,and the lack
of adequate information to comply with Fee Mitigation Act requirements (California Government Code §§66000
et sequentes)applicable to the City of Fresno. In the absence of this documentation it is not legally permissible
for the City to impose the requested traffic impact fee.
An appropriate, reasonable and legally permissible method of addressing capacity deficiencies has been
presented to Caltrans for consideration.. This method utilizes the master storm water drainage facility planning
and fee program. established by the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control Agency as a model. Using this model,
Caltrans is responsible for ,providing a master facilities. plan, development fee schedule and assurances of

compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements (Mitigation Fee Act-AB 1600)which apply to the City
of Fresno. Should Caltrans develop a master facilities plan and development impact fee program consistent with
this model, it will be applied to any final tract map or other applicable development entitlement for this project.
It is also noted that the City of Fresno's staff has met with Caltrans representatives to review citywide impacts on.
State facilities; the CEQA process; and the legal requirements for determining the nexus (demonstration of the
direct relationship between the project and the potential impact) and the proportionality (fair share contribution
towards mitigating the impact)required by State law. While the Caltrans representatives have previously assured
the City that Caltrans legal staff would provide evidence of compliance with State statutes, no response has been
received to date by the City of Fresno
However, in response to these discussions, a partnership in planning grant was obtained through which the City
of Fresno and Caltrans will participate with other jurisdictions to complete a freeway deficiency study. This study
will detail the traffic impacts anticipated to occur to freeway facilities within the greater Fresno-Madera-Clovis
Metropolitan Area. This study will focus.upon facilities identified to be most impacted by the projected increases
in traffic; identification of the sources of the vehicle traffic within the greater metropolitan area; and the
improvements necessary to provide adequate vehicular capacity. Findings from this study may allow proportionate
traffic impact fees to be legally implemented by the cities of Fresno and Clovis as well as the County of Fresno
upon adoption by the respective jurisdictions.
Historical Resource
The proposed tract lies within the boundaries of the former Eggers Colony. George H. Eggers was one of the San
Francisco.businessmen of German ancestry(often dubbed the"German Syndicate".)who purchased 80,OOO.acres
in this area from the federal government in 1860. In 1872 The Syndicate sold a portion of this acreage to the
Central Pacific Railroad for the new town of Fresno. The Eggers Colony was established east of Fresno by 1891,
on the 640 acres.of Section,23,.within Township 13 South. The Kings River and Fresno Canal ran through the
Colony and ditches presumably were.constructed to deliver water.to the 19 plus acre parcels.
There is an existing single family residence located at 3183 North Locan Avenue, on the.eastern boundary of the
proposed subdivision. The brick portion of the home appears to be the Colony pumphouse. A three-story wood
frame tankhouse was later added and is now engaged to the brick building. The building was apparently
converted to a residence c1922 at which time a Craftsman style porch was appended to the facade. A 1979
addition to the north end of the building is compatible with the earlier construction.
The.Historic Preservation Commission met'on February 23, 2004 and reviewed the.structure. The Historic
Preservation Project Manager prepared a report for the Commission which included forms.for the State of
California Department of. Parks and Recreation: The Commission took action to find the structure to be a
significant historical resource and determined it to potentially be.eligible for nomination to the local historic register.
However,.the structure is not currently being nominated to this list although the property owner or Commission
may pursue that action in the future.
Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-03-204
The applicant has filed Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-03-204 to allow for reduced lot area (less than
6,000 square feet) and reduced lot widths (less than 60 feet) for a portion of the proposed subdivision. This
request is being supported because the proposal meets the requirements of a non-clustered planned

development. All reduced size lots area minimum of 4,200 square feet in area and are at least 100 feet deep.
The applicant has submitted floor plans and elevations for all models which would be built in the subdivision and
they all meet minimum setback requirements of the R-1 zone district.
Streets and Access Points
s
This subdivision is proposed to have two access points to East Dakota Avenue and two access points to North
Locan Avenue. The Public Works Department, Transportation Planning Section has reviewed the rezone and
tentative tract map applications. They have also required that the proposed subdivision construct an access point
to the property to the south which would allow traffic to access East Shields Avenue. They have also reviewed
the traffic assessment,dated November 5,2003,prepared by TPG Consulting. Public Works staff has determined
that the streets adjacent to and near the subject site will be able to accommodate the quantity and kind of traffic
generated, subject to the dedication and improvement of adjacent portions of Temperance, Locan and Shields
Avenues to their ultimate planned width.
Landscaping/Walls
Given that the proposed subdivision abuts a planned arterial (Locan) and a planned expressway(Temperance),
the developer will be required to install 10-26 feet of landscaping along North Temperance and North Locan
Avenues. In addition, the applicant will be required to install a solid wall at the rear of the required landscape
setback which,will mitigate the-adverse effect of noise generated by vehicles traveling on the adjacent major
streets,.as recommended by the acoustical analysis prepared. by. Brown-Buntin and Associates, dated October
16, 2003:
Lot Dimensions
The R-1/UGM zone district requires minimum lot sizes of 6,000 square feet for lots in the subdivision. Conditional
Use Permit.Application No. C-03-204 was filed to allow reduced size lots for a.portion of the subdivision. The
proposed reduced size lots meet the minimum size requirements(4,200 square feet).for a planned development.
In addition, the reduced size-lots will.also have reduced width (minimum.,width of 42.feet); however,the depth will
meet the requirements (1.00 feet) of.the R-1 zone district.
The subdivision map, based. on the required findings for approval and subject to the recommended conditions of
approval,and the standards and policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and McLane Community Plan, complies
with applicable zoning, subdivision, and UGM requirements. Therefore, staff recommends approval.
Tentative Tract Map Findings
The Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code Section 66400 et. seq.) requires that a proposed
subdivision not be approved unless the map,together with its design and improvements, is found to be consistent
with the General Plan. and any applicable specific plan (Finding No. 1 below).
State.law further provides that the proposed subdivision map be denied.if anyone of the Finding.Nos. 2-5 below
is made in the negative. In addition, State law requires that a subdivision be found to provide for future passive
and natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision development (Finding No. 6 below).

The proposed development will generate storm runoff which produces potentially significant
environmental impacts and which must be properly discharged and mitigated pursuant to the Z
California Environmental Quality Act and the National Environmental Policy Act. The District o
in cooperation with the City and County has developed and adopted the Storm Drainage and
Flood Control Master Plan. Compliance with and implementation of this Master Plan by this
development project will satisfy the drainage related CEQA/NEPA impact of the project
mitigation requirements.
The proposed development shall pay drainage fees pursuant to the.Drainage Fee Ordinance.prior to O
issuance of a building permit at the rates in effect at the time of such issuance. The fee
indicated above is valid through February 29, 20 04 based on the site plan submitted to O
the District on 12/17%03 Contact FMFCD for a revised fee in cases where changes are
made in the proposed site plan which materially alter the proposed impervious area.
Considerations which may affect the fee obligation(s) or the timing or form of fee payment:
a) Fees related to undeveloped or phased portions of the project may be deferrable. O
b) Fees may be calculated based on the actual percentage of runoff if different than that
typical for the zone district under which the development is being undertaken and if
permanent provisions are made to assure that the site remains in that configuration.
c) Master Plan storm drainage facilities may be constructed, or required to be constructed
in lieu of paying fees.
d) The actual cost incurred in constructing MasterPlan drainage system facilities is credited
against the drainage fee obligation.

The drainage system cost and fee schedule update is currently underway. The drainage system cost
and fee obligation indicated in this notice is the obligation which is valid at the date of this notice.
Contact the District for a final drainage fee obligation prior to issuance of a building or permit
recording of the final map.
The cost of construction of Master Plan facilities,excluding dedication of storm drainage easements,
is eligible for credit against the drainage fee of the drainage area served by the facilities. A
Development Agreement shall be executed with the District to effect such credit. Reimbursement
provisions, in accordance with the Drainage Fee Ordinance, will be included to the extent that
Developer's Master Plan costs for an individual drainage area exceed the fee of said area. Should the
facilities cost for such individual area total less than the fee of said area,the difference shall be paid
upon demand to the City or District.
The District requests that the grading Engineer contact the District as early as possible to review the
proposed site drainage for verification and acceptance of the drainage design prior to preparing a
grading plan.
The developer has requested the modified Drainage Area `BV" Storm Drainage Master Plan as
shown on Exhibit No. 1 to accommodate an alternate design. The developer will be required to enter
into an agreement with the District in accordance with the District's policy for "Modification of
FMFCD Systems and Recovery of Costs". This agreement will require the deposit of funds
necessary to cover expenses related to the analysis of the requested modification and any increased
infrastructure costs associated therewith.
CUP 2003-204 does not have permanent drainage service available. However,the construction of
the Master Plan facilities in Shields Avenue downstream of CUP 2003-204,as shown on Exhibit No.
1,will provide permanent service. A portion of the downstream facilities is a requirement of Tract
5189.
Since a portion of the Shields Avenue branch of the Master Plan facilities will be constructed with
Tract 5189, the developer will be required to deposit with the District funds necessary for the
enlargement of the pipelines in excess of Tract 5189's original construction requirements.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS
EXHIBIT NO. 2
The developer shall pay any additional costs to the planned drainage system resulting from
modifying the Master Plan and directing CUP 2003-204 drainage to the Shields Avenue branch of
the system. The developer will be responsible to pay for the net cost increase considering savings
from any pipe sizes that decrease or pipe lengths that are eliminated by this revision to the Master
Plan. The cost increase to the current Drainage Area "BV" plan is approximately $67,000. The
developer shall enter into an agreement with the District and place funds on deposit in order to effect
the alternate design.
Should the increased cost to the developer of CUP 2003-204 exceed the net increased cost to the
system, the developer must front-end this additional cost.
The inlet boundaries, as shown on Exhibit No. 1, may be slightly realigned to accommodate the
proposed development,provided the property owner accepts the responsibility to grade the property
such that the drainage from the property will reach inlets on the alternate pipeline alignment, and
accepts any additional costs for the construction of additional storm drain facilities that may be
required. Any proposed storm drain alignments must be reviewed and approved by the District.
The proposed development is located in an area that has historically provided a passage for major
storm flows from northeast of the proposed property to Shields and Temperance Avenues. The
developer must maintained this major storm flow passage.
A fifteen(15) foot wide storm drain easement will be required whenever storm drain facilities are
located on private property. No encroachments into the easement will be permitted including, but
not limited to, foundations, roof overhangs, swimming pools, and trees.
