APPROVE the environmental finding for Environmental Assessment No. R-05-22/T-5449 dated September 29, 2005 that the project proposal conforms to the provisions of the 2025 Fresno General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report (ME1R No. 10130). 2. APPROVE Rezone Application No. R-05-22 to reclassify approximately 25 acres of an overall 35 acre site from the AL-20 (Limited Twenty Acre Agriculture [County of Fresno]) zone district to the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district. 3. ACCEPT withdrawal of appeal filed on March 24, 2006 as related to the Planning Commission's action which approved Tentative Tract Map No. 5449. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Valley Pacific Builders, Inc. has filed Rezone Application No. R-05-22 and Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 pertaining to approximately 25 acres of an overall 35 acre site. The subject property is located on the north side of East Butler Avenue between South Peach and South Minnewawa Avenues. It is noted that approximately 18 acres of the overall 35 acre site are planned for a community park, while the remaining 17 acres are planned for medium-low density residential land uses. However, Table 4 (Underlying/Alternative Land Uses for Designated City Park Sites) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan identifies alternative planned land uses for city park sites. The alternate planned land use for the northern 18 acres is medium density residential. The applicant is proposing to develop approximately 8 acres of the 18 acres planned for a community park, while the remaining 10 acres are designated as a remainder. Rezone Application No. R-05-22 proposes to reclassify 25 acres of the site from the AL-20 (Limited Twenty Acre Agriculture [County of Fresno]) zone district to the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district. The proposed R-1 zone district is consistent with the designated planned land use of medium-low density residential pursuant to Table 2 (Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and applied within all community plans. Both the medium-low (2.19 to 4.98 units per acre) and medium (4.99 to 10.37 units per acre) density residential planned land uses are consistent with the proposed R-1 zone district.. In addition, the applicant has filed Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 proposing to subdivide the 25 acres into a 101-lot, single family residential subdivision with a remainder for an overall density of 4.0 units per acre. The applications would bring REPORT TO THE CITY COUP Rezone Application No. R-05-22 Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 2 the subject property into conformance with the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Roosevelt Community Plan. The remainder is under review for the use of a personal storage facility through Plan Amendment Application No. A-05-06, Rezone Application No. R-05-35 and Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-05-114 which are scheduled to be heard by Council for the same meeting in a separate hearing. On February 15, 2006, the Fresno City Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezone application to the City Council and also approved the related subdivision map. On .February 27, 2006, a nearby neighbor appealed the action of the Planning Commission to the City Council pursuant to Section 12-1019 of the FMC. The appeal was withdrawn in the attached letter dated March 17, 2006, received by the City Clerk on March 24, 2006. Pursuant to Fresno Municipal Code ("FMC") section 12-1019(h)(3), relating to withdrawal of appeals on tentative tract maps, Council may accept the withdrawal of the appeal prior to rendering a decision upon the merits of the appeal. If Council accepts the withdrawal this will reinstate the Planning Commission decision approving the tentative map made on February 15, 2006. KEY OBJECTIVE BALANCE Council action regarding this proposed land use application optimizes the three Key Objectives of Customer Satisfaction, Employee Satisfaction, and Financial Management. Affirmative action by the Council will result in timely deliverance of the review and processing of the application as is reasonably expected by the applicant/customer. Prudent financial management is demonstrated by the expeditious completion of this land use application inasmuch as the applicant/customer has paid to the city a fee for the processing of this application and that fee is, in turn, funding the operations of the Planning and, s Development Department. Employee satisfaction is derived from the fact that the professional and technical staff, who have reviewed and made a recommendation on this land use application, have done so in a thorough and professional manner, thereby enhancing the sense of accomplishment in the completion of the application process.

Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 5 BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS Valley Pacific Builders, Inc. has filed Rezone Application No. R-05-22 and Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 pertaining to approximately 25 acres of an overall 35 acre site. The subject property is located on the north side of East Butler Avenue between South Peach and South Minnewawa Avenues. It is noted that it approximately 18 acres of the overall 35 acre site are planned for a community park, while the remaining I 17 acres are planned for medium-low density residential land uses. However, Table 4 (Underlying/Alternative Land Uses for Designated City Park Sites) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan identifies alternative planned land uses for city park sites. The alternate planned land use for the northern 18 acres is medium density residential. The applicant is proposing to develop approximately 8 acres of the 18 acres planned for a community park, while the remaining 10 acres are designated as a remainder. Rezone Application No. R-05-22 proposes to reclassify 25 acres of the site from the AL-20 (Limited Twenty Acre Agriculture [County of Fresno]) zone district to the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district. The proposed R-1 zone district is consistent with the designated planned land use of medium-low density residential pursuant to Table 2 (Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and applied within all community plans. Both the medium-low (2.19 to 4.98 units per acre) and medium (4.99 to 10.37 units per acre) density residential planned land uses are consistent with the proposed R-1 zone district. In addition, the applicant has filed Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 proposing to subdivide the 25 acres into a 101-lot, single family residential subdivision with a remainder for an overall density of 4.0 units per acre. The remainder is under review for the use of a personal storage facility through Plan Amendment Application No. A-05-06, Rezone Application No. R-05-35 and Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-05-114. These applications will be heard by Council in a separate hearing on the same Council day as the subject applications. Land Use Plans and Policies The subject site is designated for medium-low and medium (per Table 4 of the 2025 Fresno General Plan) density residential planned land uses by the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Roosevelt Community Plan. The proposed zone district and subdivision are consistent with the planned land use designations. in addition, the following development standards and policies are applicable and have been met through the approved subdivision design (attached Exhibit A): Policy C-9-ii of the 2025 Fresno General Plan & Policy 1-7-1-a of the Roosevelt Community Plan Medium-low density residential uses shall be designated to preserve those single-family residential neighborhoods which were established with moderately large lots, to provide a transition between low and medium density residential areas;and, Arrange lot patterns and sizes to maintain compatibility with surrounding uses and improvements (either existing or planned), and to facilitate the development of adjacent parcels with similar lotting patterns. Policy C-9-i of the 2025 Fresno General Plan Medium density residential land shall be developed to maximize efficient use and affordability of residential property through a wide range of densities. New residential projects within this land use category should not be permitted to be developed at a density less than the minimum shown in Table 2 in order to better achieve the goals of the city's Housing Element. REPORT TO THE CITY COUP Rezone Application No. R-05-22 Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 6 ,a Policy 1-7-1-c of the Roosevelt Community Plan Utilize landscape and design measures to make a positive contribution to the community's identity, provide variety, and avoid unsightly conditions (such as repetitive roof forms and roof mounted mechanical equipment). These measures should include enhances landscaping along boundary and entry streets, architecturally designed perimeter walls, and variety of building placement and design. Policy 2-3.7 of the Roosevelt Community Plan & Policy 2-3.12 of the Roosevelt Community Plan Enhance the scenic boulevard nature of Butler Avenue and address the safety hazard to Ayer School by discouraging high-speed through traffic. To accomplish this: 1)synchronize traffic lights to maximize flow on Kings Canyon Road, 2) construct Freeway 180 through to Clovis Avenue by 1996, and, Designate Huntington Boulevard (between First and Cedar Avenue), Butler Avenue (between Peach and Fowler Avenues), Peach Avenue (between the California Avenue alignment and Belmont Avenue) and Minnewawa Avenue (between Central Canal and Belmont Avenue) as scenic routes, and preserve existing trees along these rights-of-way where possible. Roosevelt Community Plan Advisory Committee The subject property is located within the boundaries of the Roosevelt Community Plan. The Roosevelt Community Plan Advisory Committee reviewed and recommended approval of the project at their April 25, 2005 meeting, subject to the following conditions: 1. Eliminate the proposed ingress/egress from the project site to East Liberty and East Lowe.' Avenues. 2. Use interface standards for lots abutting the county residential subdivision to the east. These lots should match the county lots to the east of Tentative Tract Map No. 5449. 3. Lots abutting East Butler Avenue shall front onto East Butler Avenue. 4. No roof mounted air-conditioning unit within the subdivision. 5. Provide five percent open space within the subdivision. 6. No two-story houses adjacent to the county subdivision to the east. In the approved tract map design (attached Exhibit A) the above recommended conditions have been met with the exception of five percent open space within the subdivision. Pursuant to Roosevelt Community Plan Policy No. 1-17.3 the developer/owner shall designate and develop a minimum of five percent of the total project area for public or private open space such as lakes, community recreation; or passive open space. Alternatively, an equivalent amount of area may be provided in conjunction with approved public or quasi public open space within one and one-quarter mile of the development. The City Council, on November 3, 2004, approved Plan Amendment No. A-03-17 to the above- noted policy of the Roosevelt Community Plan to allow for the payment of fees for open space-park purposes in-lieu of the actual development of the required five percent open space. Pursuant to ` REPORT TO THE CITY COUP-11- Rezone Application No. R-05-- Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April A, 2006 Page 7 this amendment an equivalent amount of funds in-lieu of park space improvement may be paid to the city subject to the terms of Resolution No. 2004-450 approving this plan amendment. Fresno City Planning Commission November 30, 2005 This project was originally heard by the Planning Commission on November 30, 2005. At this public hearing, the Planning Commission heard testimony from city staff, the applicant, County of Fresno staff, and concerned neighbors. Several issues were discussed, including protecting the character of the existing neighborhood from encroaching urban type land uses, traffic, access and protecting the existing olive trees along East Butler Avenue. After extensive discussions, the Planning Commission recommended that the applicant decrease the number of proposed lots and propose an alternative tract map design. January 18, 2006 The alternate tract map design was presented to the Planning Commission on January 18, 2006. At this hearing, the Planning Commission heard testimony again from city staff, the applicant, County of Fresno staff, and concerned neighbors. In their testimony, neighbors expressed concerns about the density of the subdivision, access, and traffic. Furthermore, county staff presented three alternative designs in addition to what the applicant had proposed that county staff had previously discussed with the neighbors. After hearing testimony from the various parties, the Planning Commission again took action to continue the project and recommended that the applicant draft alternative subdivision designs that would decrease the proposed density of the subdivision and would also minimize some of the neighbor's concems. The applicant was also advised to meet with the neighbors and both city and county staff to discuss these alternative plans. February 15, 2006 The Planning Commission heard the project once more on February 15, 2006 after the applicant had met with neighbors and both city and county staff to discuss potential subdivision alternatives. These alternatives were presented to the Planning Commission and after testimony again from city staff, the applicant, County of Fresno staff and concerned neighbors, the Commission took action to. approve Alternate Plan D (attached Exhibit A). In summary, the approved subdivision layout accomplishes the following: • Prohibits vehicular traffic from traveling east on East Liberty and East Lowe Avenues to South Minnewawa through the existing county subdivision • Provides direct vehicular access to East Butler Avenue • Provides vehicular access to South Villa Avenue which provides access to East Butler and East Lowe (west bound) Avenues Provides pedestrian access and appropriate drainage to East Lowe and East Liberty Avenues traveling east through the county subdivision REPORT TO THE CITY COUN Rezone Application No. R-05-22 Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 8 • Prohibits vehicular access to East Kings Canyon Road through the subdivision adjacent to public schools Appeal of Planning Commission Action An appeal of the Planning Commission's action approving Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 from neighboring residents was received by the Planning and Development Department on February 27, 2006. The appeal letter (Exhibit C) states the following concerns: • traffic being placed directly onto East Butler Avenue, a scenic drive; and • the neighboring schools and park will be impacted by traffic traveling on East Butler Avenue. On March 24, 2006 the City Clerk received a letter withdrawing the appeal. The appellants still expressed their concern for the safety of the children whom utilize the neighboring schools and park but are willing to work with the developer and city staff to create some form of traffic calming devices to the adjacent streets such as "chokers," alternate landscaping, and brickwork along East Butler Avenue to reduce the speed of vehicles. Under FMC Section 12-1019(h), the Council may accept the withdrawal of the appeal at any time prior to making a decision upon the merits of the appeal. If Council accepts the withdrawal of the appeal, the Planning Commission decision approving the Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 will be reinstated. Staff recommends Council accept the withdrawal of the appeal as the approved Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 _ (Exhibit °A") along with its approved Conditions of Approval dated January 18, 2006, meets the City's'-:y adopted planning and zoning policies, goals, requirements and guidelines. Subdivision Design/Streets and Access Points This subdivision is proposed to have two access points to East Butler Avenue. Interior streets will be connected throughout the proposed subdivision with only two cul-de-sac streets, however they will terminate at pedestrian paths connecting to East Liberty and East Lowe Avenues to the east, thus only vehicle access will be restricted. Landscaping/Common Open Space/Pedestrian Trail A 40 foot landscape setback is required along the north side of East Butler Avenue. In addition, the. applicant will be required to install a solid decorative masonry wall at the rear of the required landscape setback, which will help mitigate the adverse effect of noise generated by vehicles traveling on the adjacent street. Pursuant to Roosevelt Community Plan Policy No. 1-17.3 the developer/owner shall designate and develop at least five percent of the total project area for public or private open space such as lakes, community recreation, or passive open space. Alternatively, an equivalent amount of area may be provided in conjunction with approved public or quasi public open space within one and one-quarter mile of the development. The City Council, on November 3, 2004, approved Plan Amendment No. A-03-17 to the above-noted policy of the Roosevelt Community Plan to allow for the payment of fees for open space-park purposes in lieu of the actual development of the required five percent open space. Pursuant to this amendment an equivalent amount of funds in-lieu of park space improvement may be paid to the city subject to the terms of Resolution No. 2004-450 approving this plan amendment. It is noted that in ;, REPORT TO THE CITY COUN."lL Rezone Application No. R-05-. Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 9 addition to the landscape easement along East Butler Avenue, there will be pedestrian easements which will allow access through the site without having to meander throughout the subdivision. Lot Area and Dimensions The FMC requires that all lots within the R-1 zone district provide a minimum lot width of 60 feet and depth of 100 feet, with the exception of lots on curved streets and reversed corner lots and a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet. All of the parcels meet or exceed the minimum lot dimensions and lot area. Setbacks The FMC requires that all lots within the R-1 zone district provide a minimum front yard setback of 20 feet and a rear yard of 20 feet and five foot side yards, with the exception of corner lots and reversed corner lots which are required to provide side yard setbacks of 10-feet and 15-feet. Public Services Water Resources and Public Water Supply The Water Division of the Public Utilities Department has determined that there is an adequate source of water available to serve the project with the implementation of the Urban Growth Management (UGM) service delivery requirements and the environmental impact mitigation measures. It should also be noted that adverse groundwater conditions of limited supply and compromised quality have been well- documented by planning, environmental impact report, and technical studies over the past 20 years 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. As a result, if approved, the proposed project would be required to contribute to short-term and long-range water supply and distribution remediation projects in order to adequately address this deficiency. Sewage Collection System Capacity The Cities of Fresno and Clovis share jointly in the treatment capacity of the Fresno-Clovis Regional Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Facility. In 1998, the treatment capacity was expanded to accommodate up to 80 million gallons per day, and was upgraded with modernized equipment to safeguard against equipment failures. However, in an attempt to serve the anticipated 790,000 metropolitan area population for the year 2025, one or more sub-regional treatment and reclamation facilities will be required. Regardless, sanitary sewer service is available to serve the site, subject to the mitigation measures imposed with the environmental assessment, and any necessary sewer main extensions and connections. Fire Protection Services The project site is not located within the city's UGM area. Fire service will be provided by City of Fresno Fire Station No. 15, within two miles of the subject property. Circulation Element Plan Policies and Major Street System Traffic Capacity The development of the project site with the proposed 101 single-family residences, and the surrounding planned land uses designated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Roosevelt Community Plan, will be REPORT TO THE CITY COUP Rezone Application No. R-05-22 Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 10 required to complete the planned major street network in accordance with applicable development policies and standards. Both plans designate East Butler Avenue as a scenic drive. However,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. As required by the mitigation measures established by the certification of MEIR No. 10130, a Traffic Impact Study (TIS) was prepared by VRPA Technologies (dated February 24, 2005 and amended on October 25, 2005) to evaluate the number of vehicle trips projected to be generated by the proposed project. Utilizing the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual and associated computer software together with the COG's 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 TIS analyzed the intersections at Peach and Butler Avenues and Kings Canyon Road and Minnewawa Avenue. At 101 single-family residential dwelling units, the project is expected to generate an average of approximately 1,042 vehicle trips per day (VTD). Of these vehicle trips, it is projected that 79 will occur during the morning (7 to 9 a.m.) peak hour travel period and 107 will occur during the evening (4 to 6 p.m.) peak hour travel period. Because much of the immediately surrounding 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 will be required to construct improvements including the installation of a signal at the intersection of Peach and Butler Avenues, dedication and street improvements for East Butler Avenue, and pay their fair share of the cost to improve the intersection at East Kings Canyon Road and South Minnewawa Avenue. 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. State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 6, Office of Intergovernmental Relations has commented that the project is not expected to create significant impacts to the State Highway System however the proposed remainder lot will be required to dedicate land to Caltrans for the widening of State Route 180 along .Kings Canyon Road at the time there is a development plan for the subject remainder lot. REPORT TO THE CITY COUr'"Il- Rezone Application No. R-05-. Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 April 4, 2006 Page 11 CONCLUSION / RECOMMENDATION The appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with respect to its consistency with goals and policies of the Roosevelt Community Plan and the 2025 Fresno General 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. Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that the proposed Rezone Application No. R-05-22 and approved Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 are appropriate for the project site.

Assistant Director -, Public Works Department 2600 Fresno Street Fresno, CA. 93721 Att: Mr. Kirn, RE: Vesting Tentative Tract Map 5449, A-05-006, R-05-35 We appreciate your attendance at the recent neighborhood meeting concerning the above referenced tract map. The Sunnyside Property Owners Association (SPOA) takes great pride in working as liaisons between government entities and Sunnyside residents and strongly believes that advance notice and cooperation brings greater resolution and satisfactory compronuse between developers and adjacent homeowners. We realize that the vast majority of streets do end up as connections for subsequent developments, but feel that this location is unique in that the VillaJButler access is across the street from a park, two schools and feeds onto Butler, a local Scenic Street. The second proposed access, Lowe, directs traffic to Minnewawa, another local Scenic Street. Residents of Lowe might not object as much to the increase in traffic if the subdivision were developed on similar size parcels, however since the density is so disparate the traffic generated seems much more objectionable. We realize that the developer is not asking for any special consideration and that the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan, however, the proposed development to the north is not. Without the rezone and plan amendment for the proposed Derrei's Mini Storage Facility, the subdivision would likely extend all the way north to Kings Canyon Road or be developed as a park. Approved tract maps at Temperance and Kings Canyon provide residents with access to Kings Canyon. In addition, public works conditioned the proposed DermI's Mini Storage facility on Clovis north of Jensen, with an access for the residential subdivision to the west. So a precedent does exist- It does not seem unreasonable, therefore, to condition the proposed Derrel's Mini Storage with a local street access to Kings Canyon Road for the residents in the proposed residential subdivision to the south. This would decrease the impact on both Butler and Minnewawa and divert the majority of traffic to Kings Canyon; a super arterial designed to handle such traffic impacts. We look forward to working with the City on an acceptable compromise for the neighborhood.

Caltrans has the: following comments:' , The portion of the map that includes the subdivision does not have direct access to State Route (SR) 180. However, the"remainder"parcel is adjacent to State facilities. Should any activity be planned for the remainder parcel adjacent to SR 180, a permit will be required from Caltrans. An encroachment permit must be obtained for all proposed activities for placement of encroachments within, under or over the State highway rights-of-way., Activity and work planned in the State right-of-way shall be performed to State standards and specifications, at no cost to the State. Engineering plans, calculations, specifications, and reports (documents) shall be stamped and signed by a licensed Engineer or Architect. Engineering documents for activity and work in the State right-of-way shall be submitted using Metric Units. However, dual units may be used for activity and work in the right-of-way costing 51,000,000 or less, or by an, exception approved by the Director. The preferred method of delineating dual units is by showing. the English unit first then the Metric unit next to it in parenthesis. The Permit Department and the Environmental Planning Branch will review and approve the activity and work in the State right-of-way before an encroachment permit is issued. Encroachment permits will be issued in accordance with Streets and Highway Codes, Section 671.5, "Time Limitations." Encroachment permits do not run with the land. A change in ownership requires a new permit. Caltrans requests theopportunity to review any development proposal for the remainder parcel. According to our Transportation Concept Report(TCR), this segment.of SR 180 in the vicinity of the proposed project is planned for 110 feet. Caltrans right-of-way shows this segment existing at 100 feet. As this section of SR 180 is due to be relinquished in the future to the City of Fresno, Caltrans is not requesting an irrevocable offer of dedication. However, the City may wish to consider obtaining a dedication of five feet of right-of-way from the remainder parcel to accommodate future widening of East Kings Canyon. "Caltrans improver mobility across California" Ms. Dawn Marple • May 3, 2005 Page 2 The proposed project, in and of itself, is not expected to create significant impacts to the State Highway System. However, when combined with other development in the area, this project's impacts to the transportation/circulation system and to air quality will be cumulatively significant. As cumulative impacts to these resources were not addressed in the General Plan Update Master EIR, the City should consider a mechanism for evaluating and mitigating for these impacts. One possible mechanism for evaluating the cumulative impacts of these land use decisions would be for the City to use the San Joaquin Valley Growth Response Study (GRS) modeling tool. The GRS Tools provide a cumulative analysis of land use impacts, as opposed to a"snapshot" of growth at 20 years. They can identify where to place transit stops, locate the more intense land uses, how and where to site interrelated uses, etc., providing an actual quantitative analysis of alternatives. The type of information that is available by using this modeling tool goes significantly beyond what is traditionally provided with an Environmental Impact Report, providing the type of information necessary to support "smart growth" land use decisions. This benefits the local, regional, and State transportation network, as well as air quality. The analysis can also include indicators to evaluate economic development and the jobs/housing balance critical to a community's quality of life. With the GRS Tools, public officials and citizens would be provided with the likely impacts of alternative growth policies. The resulting information is available to public officials and citizens in easy-to-understand maps and tables. The City should consider a transit altemative for this project. The project is small, but when combined with other residential projects in the area, there is sufficient development to support transit, and early planning could make such an alternative feasible. The San Joaquin Valley Growth Response study would be an excellent tool for evaluating these alternatives. Caltrans recommends that this project be routed to Fresno Area Express (FAX) staff for their review and comment. Please see Attachment Number 1 for other recommended transportation alternatives. If you have any questions, please call me at (559) 445-6666. Sincerely, ..A MOSES STITES Office of Transportation Planning District 6 Enclosure C: Ms. Barbara Goodwin, Council of Fresno County Governments "Caltrans improves mobility across California" ATTACHMENT NUMBER 1 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. I Exploring the potential of commuter shuttles. The shuttle could be financed through an assessment district and provide a way for individuals to utilize a park-and-ride facility or commercial area parking lot and be shuttled to various commercial/office centers within the area. Commuters who need to go further could use City of Fresno transit if the City planned for convenient connections. This may help to reduce the Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) demand seeking to use the State Highway System. 4. Providing for continuity of non-motorized transportation. 5. Exploring the potential for employer-sponsored carpools/vanpools 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. 6. Exploring the potential for linking the purchase of a monthly transit pass with new residential development as partial mitigation for congestion and air quality impacts, and to ensure the long term viability of public transportation. Exhibit C February 27, 2006 Becky Klisch, City Clerk �u r City of Fresno 2600 Fresno Street FEB 2 7 .2006 Fresno,- CA 93721 Planning Division Oevelo�+ment Oepa�ment Dear Ms. Klish: G!;{ As residents of Butler Avenue,with access in and out of our property limited to that of Butler Avenue(Ward); and City residents living in the greater Sunnyside area(Collier); we hereby formally appeal the decision of the Planning Commission's approval of TM5449-Exhibit D, on February,15, 20x6. We represent many residents with the same concerns.. Although we do not oppose the Derrel's mini storage facility application on Kings Canyon, we must also appeal approval of the Plan Amendment Application No. A- 05-06, Rezone Application No. R-05-35, Conditional Use Permit Application No. C-05- 114, as this is part of the overall rezone request for the parcel, with the developer desiring to sell 10.81 acres to Derrel's, and it impacts the complete config_uration of the subdivision map. Commissioner Lee Brand, who spoke in favor of an access road to Kings Canyon and was part-of the }M=movs-vote to continue this-tEem on January 18`h' resigned effective February I'`. Two new members were unable to vote, as it was.a continued item from previous meetings. City Planning staff recommended approval of Exhibit d,with- ingress/egress ithingress/egress points for the subdivision at South Villa Avenue (to the west), East Liberty and Easf Lowe avenues(to the east). The Commission, at its vote on February 150i, approved Exhibit D of the map with ingress/egress points at South Villa and East Butler Avenue. This, essentially,puts all traffic from this subdivision — estimated to be an additional 900-1,100 vehicle trips per day, directly onto Butler Avenue. The traffic study shows that 69.9% of the traffic would utilize South Villa, directly across from the Park and Ayer Elementary School and mainly traverse west on Butler Avenue past the Parki and this was with an exit at East Lowe carrying 30.1% of the traffic on Exhibit A. Now,with Exhibit D as approved,the ingress/egress point is Butler;rather than E;Lowe;so the additional 30.1% is also placed on Butler. Although it may be argued that traffic may exit Villa and proceed west onto E. Lowe between the schools; speed bumps are in place there and traffic is very congested, causing anyone without children going to school to avoid that route for the faster; easier route of Butler Avenue.- This presents several safety issues for the residents, children and students of Fresno: 1. As approved, the tract map not only puts students at Ayer School and Sunnyside HS at an extreme safety risk; it also puts the safety of citizens of Fresno who utilize Sunnyside Park (a City park often filled to capacity.with soEcer Teague play; eto)j Faaehpr Creek Trailway/Bridle Path;track students r from Sunnyside HS, Roosevelt HS, and Fresno Pacific University who use Battler Avenue as a training route; at risk --because the Pl.m , Commission's proposal only allows for traffic on Butler Avenue (via Butler and Villa): By only opening Butler and Villa; traffic-has been placed at.its most critical area with regard to the issue of safety. 2. Regarding the two schools,Nick Yovino is quoted in The Bee as stating, Y:. "That's the worst place to prat the added traffic.-" Nfx. . Yovino is right;this is- the sthe worst place to put the traffic because it's already jeopardizing the students who have to walk;ride bikes; or drive to these sehools;and who enjoy activities at the Park. In addition,Butler Avenue is designated a scenic, historic;local street and is heavily used by students;pedestrians;bicyclists-; and equestrian riders. Sunnyside Park exceeds its capacity in the spring as Soccer ane}other activities begin. 3. The Planning Commission, in approving Alternative D of the tract map, is working in direct opposition to many progressive movements;such as Creative Fresno and CEC. These groups are trying to attract, and then keep creative people here in Fresno .arid that can be done only by Fresno retaining its unique communities --Tower District, Fig Garden, Sunnyside, etc. 4. In the 2025 General Plan, Butler Avenue is designated a scenic, local drive. With that designation; it should be .conveyed that no additional direct traffic from new developments be placed on Butler. As stated by Councilmember ' Rages in The Bee(1/1 I/067, "6'S% of the City's recent growth has occurred in the southeast area." Indirectly, Butler Avenue will be impacted by all these new developments, but it should be protected from any direct access in keeping with the General Plan. To quote Commissioner Brand from the January I8`h meeting: "We are charged to implement the General Plan and the General Plan does call for higher density. I know that it is always a eonfliet in the.Sunnyside area. As we implement the General Plan, we cannot do it in a reckless manner. We need to really consider the unique characteristics of the neighborhood; and in many ways this project reminds me of"The Perfect Storm" - converging forces colliding in a small neighborhood area You've got a high school, elementary school, park, two streets with limited movement because they are scenic drives and can only be two lanes. It is like a flashpoint here. It is difficult for us to try to meet these two conflicting needs. We are always trying to find what we believe to be the reasonable approach to it and I mentioned it last time, that I felt this thing was too high of an impact— not because the General Plan doesn't call for it— but because of the unique nature of the configuration of this area. it is just too high of an impact and i agree with a: lot of the speakers here. I don't believe that 112 homes fan work the way it is currently configured: I said 20% redtion; that wasn't figure calculated ands - ' . " cemented in stone, but I thought there had to be a significant reduction to make it .. work. How far people move toward compromise, I am not sure, but I think F � moving— with all due respect for the City position-- I think maybe moving to Kings Canyon with an access might solve a lot of the problems. One, it might alleviate the need to reduce 20%; if it does take the traffic off the area,where the developer does have a right and he is following the General Plan on density, but something has to be done. In-.my opinion, I cannot approve the project as it is presented before me, so I appeal to my fellow Commissioners to try to find a solution here: But again; because of the unique nature that we have,this configuration can't be done; it's just too much of an impact." To quote Commissioner DiBuduo: "There is plenty of room to have a subdivision to be compatible. The eoneept-- I'm not going to agree with the lot sizes;b"-ause I -can't tell what the lot sizes are --but the concept of bigger lots up against the neighbor's lots, I concur with. I probably won't go to the size that you(neighbors)want; because I want to have more density vs. no density. I support the concept of pushing it out to Kings Canyon. I think this map needs to go back and come back with punching out to Kings Canyon, work out something with Derrel's in reality, but I would like to see the configuration of the roads in there --we have talked for years about not having square streets or square subdivision, and its part of what our redesign and our concept has been, so let's work with the developer, let's get something there that works." To quote Commissioner Cherry: "There are some big key points -- access to Kings Canyon, I think, in looking at it from living inside this project; it makes sense to go out to Kings Canyon- You can access Fancher Creek development to the east that's going to be a huge cmnunereial center;you can access 180; so why send the traffic on the historic, smaller roads when you can go out to Kings Canyon? You can put"No igns; you can put traffic calming devices, it can be a narrower street Parking" s that can limit parking, loitering, etc., so I feel it is a strong point for this project and I would like to see access to Kings Canyon for that reason. Sunnyside is a unique neighborhood. When you look at all the new development that we are patting out there (City-wide); they are walled off neighborhoods. You could be in Temecula or Roseville or Rocklin and they all look the same. But Sunnyside is unique; so I would like to see that we do all that we can to preserve the character of that neighborhood because we are not building neighborhoods like it anymore. I would say that my vote is to go with Exhibit C7- block ;block off Lowe, and I'd like to see front-on housing on to Butler." ; r We bring this map before the City Council because the issue of pedestrian and vehicular r safety should be of paramount concern; We believe thesc critical concerns are ample ` '- cause to re-consider this approved access to Butler Avenue for the residents of � s Many families with children will most likely oe:eupy the approximately 100 new homes: homes in the proposed development, adding to the need for caution for the children already living in the area: The City should reconsider the proposed access to this tract prior to injury or worse, to any of the people who now, or will be impacted by the short- sighted approach taken on this Project. In conclusion, we believe access should be made to Kings Canyon (Exhibit C, with Lowe closed to the east), along with the City Trak department's recommendations of "chokers" to squeeze the streets and slow traffic, or Council should accept the City Planning staffs recommendation of Exhibit A with a redrawn interior design(to avoid square streets and square subdivisions). Either plan promotes pedestrian and vehicular safety and protects the students of two schools, the users of the City Park, and the numerous students using Butler Avenue for cross-country training. We believe the Commission felt rushed to make a decision at its February 15''meeting, I ealizing that by approving a map with ingress/egress to Kings Canyon, it would send the map back to Planning for the review process. City officials have confirmed that it would be an approximate 60 day delay,with no additional fees incurred. Should we be so short- sighted to impact the safety of our citizens and the integrity of the community,for a mere 60&ry delay? As citizens looking at our permanent residence here in Fresno, it seems _ less than prudent to allow a 60 day time frame to rush a judgment on such a crucial matter. Thank you for listening and for your consideration of these important isst;es which will impact Fresno for years to come. Should you have any questions, or seek additional clarification,please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, John and Cynthia Ward games and Kimberly Collier . 5424 E. Butler Avenue 5933 E.

While we remain concerned about the safety of the children in the area with regard to the current approval of TM5449, we feel that a better approach to alleviate these concerns may be to work with the developer towards a common goal of enhancing the Sunnyside area, utilizing landscape design to protect the children in and around the schools and park. We look forward to working with Councilman Dages,the City, and the County in achieving these goals. While we have struggled with the idea of continuing the appeal,we realize the delays it would cause the developer of both TM5449 and Derrel's tvliniStorage at this stage of the planning process. Rather, we would like to take a positive approach in working to make these developments an enhancement for the area, perhaps by adding "chokers"or brickwork along Butler Avenue to protect the children at the park and the schools, as well as all users of the Fancher Creek Walkway/Bridle Path and joggers and bicyclists. We appreciate the patience on the part of the developers and the diligence with which the Planning Commission sought to meet the needs of all parties involved.

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. Lowe and Liberty Avenues must remain thru streets as shown on the map to maintain existing drainage patterns. The District recommends a stub street from Tentative Tract 5449 to Tentative Tract 5387 and the remainder portion shown on the map dated March 9, 2005 and as identified on Exhibit No. 1. This is necessary to allow surface drainage from the aforementioned areas to reach the future Master Plan inlet located on Villa Avenue. Additionally,the Developer of Tentative Tract 5449 must provide passage for major storm flows from APN 472-020-09, APN 472-020-12, Tentative Tract 5387, and the remainder portion of Tentative Tract 5449 to reach Villa Avenue. If the stub streets are not constructed,then the Developer will be responsible for the construction of a surface flowage channel, and dedication of a Surface Channel easement for each area not provided with a stub street. The Construction of"Master Plan facilities to be constructed by District"and"Master Plan facilities to be constructed by Developer",as shown on Exhibit No. 1,will provide permanent drainage service to Tract 5449. In accordance with District policy, in so much as the Butler Avenue pipeline is generally outside the limits of Tract 5449, the District will provide for the construction of this pipeline. To assist in the funding of said District project,the District will require the Developer pay the drainage fee obligation listed on the cover sheet of this Notice prior to the awarding of the District's contract. The Developer's construction costs will be reimbursed upon completion of the Developer's and District's storm drain projects. Development No. Tract 5449 engr\pe rm i is\exh i b it2\tract\54490 m) FLOOD PLAIN POLICY Primary Flood Plains Because of the relatively high velocities and volumes of flood flow associated with primary flood plains, and because the primary flood plain is responsible for passing the greatest percentage of the flood event, development located in such flood plains is subject to substantial risk,both to itself and to others as a result of the potential for blockage and diversion of flood waters. In view of these factors, the following policy statement is proposed: Policy 1) All proposed development activity shall be the subject of a detailed hydrological flood hazard investigation to determine the relationship of the proposed development to the secondary flood plain and the primary flood plain; and,further,to identify the estimated high water elevation of the 100- year flood event. 2) All development and/or permanent improvement activity which, if located within the primary floodway, may unduly impede, retard, or change the direction of flow of water either,by itself, or by the catching or collecting of other debris or is placed where the flow of water would carry such obstruction downstream to the damage or detriment of either life or property, should not be permitted. Seeondary Flood Plains Because development within secondary flood plains is subject to inundation,but without the threat of increased velocities of flood waters,and because the excessive development of the secondary flood plain can result in increased water surface elevations through displacement of flood waters, the following policy statement is suggested: Policy 1) Development in secondary flood plains is generally acceptable when a detailed hydrological flood hazard investigation report had been prepared indicating that the area proposed for development is located within a secondary as opposed to a primary flood plain. 2) The development must be properly flood proofed below the estimated high water elevation of the 100-year flood event. 3) The development is accomplished is such a way as to prohibit the displacement of any and all flood waters from that portion of the flood plain to be developed. engr\engrform\floodplain policy-form C ity of _ss� �jp; DEPARTN>lENT OF PUBLIC UTILITIES Date: May, l9, 2005 To: DAWN NIARPLE, Planner H Planning and Development Department, Current Planning From: DOUG BECKER, Supervising Engineering Technici Department of Public Utilities, Planning and Engineem Subject: SANITARY SEWER AND WATER REQUIREMENTS FOR T-5449/UGM AND R-05-22 General Tentative Tract No. 5449/UGM and R-05-22 propose a 110-lot single-family residential subdivision with one remainder parcel, rezoning from AE-20 (County) to the R-l/UGM zone district on 35.8 acres located on the northeast corner of East Butler and south Villa Avenues.

Caltrans has the following comments_ Eased on the trip generation and trip trace study(Peters Engineering June 15,2005)it is estimated that the trips generated from this development should be 21 trips(21.7,395 sq.$_ * 0.1 trips per 1,000 sq, ft.of inside storage) during the evening peak travel time, It is further estimated 10 trips would impact the State Route(SR) I SO/Peach Avenue intersection and 11 trips would impact the SR 180/Nlinnewawa Avenue intersection. Caltrans does not anticipate that this project will have a significant impact on either the existing facility or the new Freeway 1 SO. Caltrans will be relinquishing this portion of State Highway 180 to the City in the not-too-distant future. However,should the applicant develop the project prior to the relinquishment, an encroachment permit from Caltrans will be required if activities are proposed within,under or over the State highway rights-of- way. ights-ofway. Activity and work planned in the State right-of-way shall be performed to State standards and specifications, at no cost to the State. Engineering plans, calculations,specifications,and reports (documents)shall be stamped and signed by a licensed Engineer or.Architect_ Engineering documents for encroachment permit activity and work in the State right-of-way may be submitted using English Units. The Permit Department and the Environmental Planning Branch will review and'approve the activity and work in the State right-of-way before an encroachment permit is issued. Encroachment permits,%vill be issued in accordance with Streets and Highway Codes, Section 671.5, '"Time Limitations." Encroachment permits do not run with the land. A change of ownership requires a new permit application. -Also,if the project is developed prior to the relinquishment, the following will apply: 1. It is the Department's policy to minimize new access points to State Highways, In this case, on connection to the State Highway is allowed for each legal parcel. The proposed fire access needs to be gated and locked and only used for emergency access_ 2. Any existing or proposed driveways accessing State right-of-way must meet current State standards_ 3. Caltrans recommends that the applicant construct a sidewalk along the property's frontage with SR 180. The sidewaLk should be at least 5 feet wide, 4. Existing curb,gutter and sidewa%and curb ramps may need to be reconstructed to meet current ADA standards or other applicable State or Federal accessibility and safety requirements.

All existing concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk that is damaged, broken and/or cracked shall be removed and replaced in-kind. 6. Any and all damaged concrete surfaces within the right-of-way which pose a safety hazard due to potential tripping hazards shall be replaced or repaired in accordance with ADA and/or applicable State or Federal requirements. 7. No water from the site shall be allowed onto the State right-of-way witbout,the Department's approval. 8, The owner needs to submit the pedestrian improvements proposed in the State right-of-way to the Department of State Architect(DSA) for certification. The encroachment permit authorizing the work will not be issued until the pedestrian improvements in the State nigh;-0f--way are certified by the DSA. The owner needs to contact Saher Yassa at(916)323-2643 for the submittal requirements. 9. No advertising signs are allowed 'n or over the State right-of-Nvay. A sign permit may be required for advertising signs adjacent to and visible from the State Highway rights-of-way. The project proponent must construct and maintain the advertising signs without access to the State Routes. Contact Susan Swenssen at(209) 948-7869 or(209)943-7641 for additional information or to obtain a sign permit application. Additional information on Caltrans Outdoor Advertising Permit requirements may also be found on the Internet at www.dot.ca-gov/hq/oda. 10. Landscape and irrigation should be kept outside of the State right-of-way. If not,a landscape and irrigation maintenance agreement is required between the Department and the local jurisdiction before an encroachment permit is issued for-the work in,the State right-of-way. We request that this letter be made a part of the permanent public record for this project. This will provide the decision-malting body and the general public with a complete and accurate environmental evaluation for the project Please be advised that any future development adjacent to a State Route,whether the entitlement is deemed by the lead agency to be discretionary or ministerial should be sent to Caltrans for review.

Caltrans has the, following comments:. The portion of the map that includes the subdivision does not have direct access to State Route (SR) 180. However, the "remainder"parcel is adjacent to State facilities. Should any activity be planned for the remainder parcel adjacent to SR 180, a permit will be required from Caltrans. An encroachment permit must be obtained for all proposed activities for placement of encroachments within,under or over the State highway rights-of-way. Activity and work planned in the State right-of-way shall be performed to State standards and specifications, at no cost to the State. Engineering plans, calculations, specifications, and reports (documents) shall be stamped and signed by a licensed Engineer or Architect. Engineering documents for activity and work in the State right-of-way shall be submitted using Metric Units. However, dual units may be used for activity and work in the right-of-way costing S1,000,000 or less, or by an., exception approved by the Director. The preferred method of delineating dual units is by showing the English unit first then the Metric unit next to it in parenthesis. The Permit Department and the Environmental Planning Branch will review and approve the activity and work in the State right-of-way before an encroachment permit is issued. Encroachment permits will be issued in accordance with Streets and Highway Codes, Section 671.5, "Time Limitations." Encroachment permits do not run with the land. A change in ownership requires a new permit. Caltrans requests the opportunity to review any development proposal for the remainder parcel. According to our Transportation Concept Report (TCR), this segment of SR 180 in the vicinity of the proposed project is planned for 110 feet. Caltrans right-of-way shows this segment existing at 100 feet_ As this section of SR 180 is due to be relinquished in the future to the City of Fresno' Caltrans is not requesting an irrevocable offer of dedication. However, the City may wish to consider obtaining a dedication of five feet of right-of-way from the remainder parcel to accommodate future widening of East Kings Canyon. "Caltrans improves mobility across California" Ms. Dawn Marple May 3, 2005 Page 2 The proposed project, in and of itself, is not expected to create significant impacts to the State Highway System. However, when combined with other development in the area, this project's impacts to the transportation/circulation system and to air quality will be cumulatively significant. As cumulative impacts to these resources were not addressed in the General Plan Update Master EIR, the City should consider a mechanism for evaluating and mitigating for these impacts. One possible mechanism for evaluating the cumulative impacts of these land use decisions would be for the City to use the San Joaquin Valley Growth Response Study(GRS) modeling tool. The GRS Tools provide a cumulative analysis of land use impacts, as opposed to a"snapshot" of growth at 20 years. They can identify where to place transit stops, locate the more intense land uses, how and where to site interrelated uses, etc., providing an actual quantitative analysis of alternatives. The type of information that is available by using this modeling tool goes significantly beyond what is traditionally provided with an Environmental Impact Report, providing the type of information necessary to support "smart growth" land use decisions. This benefits the local, regional, and State transportation network, as well as air quality. The analysis can also include indicators to evaluate economic development and the jobs/housing balance critical to a community's quality of life. With the GRS Tools, public officials and citizens would be provided with the likely impacts of alternative growth policies. The resulting information is available to public officials and citizens in easy-to-understand maps and tables. The City should consider a transit alternative for this project. The project is small,but when combined with other residential projects in the area, there is sufficient development to support transit, and early planning could make such an alternative feasible. The San Joaquin Valley Growth Response study would be an excellent tool for evaluating these alternatives. Caltrans recommends that this project be routed to Fresno Area Express (FAX) staff for their review and comment. Please see Attachment Number 1 for other recommended transportation alternatives. .If you have any questions, please call me at (559) 445-6666. Sincerely, MOSES STITES Office of Transportation Planning District 6 Enclosure C: Ms. Barbara Goodwin, Council of Fresno County Governments "Caltrans improves mobility across California" ATTACHMENT NUMBER 1 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. Z. 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 of commuter shuttles. The shuttle could be financed through an assessment district and provide a way for individuals to utilize a park-and-ride facility or commercial area parking lot and be shuttled to various commercial/office centers within the area. Commuters who need to go further could use City of Fresno transit if the City planned for convenient connections. This may help to reduce the Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) demand seeking to use the State Highway System. 4. Providing for continuity of non-motorized transportation. 5. Exploring the potential for employer-sponsored carpools/vanpools 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. 6. Exploring the potential for linking the purchase of a monthly transit pass with new residential development as partial mitigation for congestion and air quality impacts, and to ensure the long term viability of public transportation.

Planning and Development Department 2600 Fresno Street, Third Floor 2N5 Fresno, CA 93721-3604 � � 9 S:.,biact: T-5449, R-05-22 (APN 472-022-15 & 20) cit Dear Ms. Marple: The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (District) has reviewed the project referenced above and offers the following comments: The entire San Joaquin Valley Air Basin is designated non-attainment for ozone and fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5). This project would contribute to the overall decline in air quality due to increased traffic and ongoing operational emissions. Although this project alone would not generate significant air emissions, the increase in emissions from this project, and others like it, cumulatively reduce the air quality in the San Joaquin Valley. A concerted effort should be made to reduce project- related.emissions as outlined below: Based on the information provided, the proposed project will be subject to the following District rules. The following items are rules that have been adopted by the District to reduce emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. Current District rules can be found at— http://www.valleyair.org/rules/1 ruleslist.htm. Regulation VIII (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions)- Regulation VIII (Rules 8011-8081) is a series of rules designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated by human activity, including construction, road construction, bulk materials storage, landfill operations, etc. If a residential project is 10.0 or more acres in area, a Dust Control Plan must be submitted as specified in Section 6.3.1 of Rule 8021. If a residential site is 1.0 to !ess than 10.0 acres, an owner/operator must provide written notification to the District at least 48 hours prior to his/her intent to begin any earthmoving activities (see section 6.4.1). A compliance assistance bulletin has been enclosed for the applicant. A template of the District's Dust Control Plan is available at: htti)://www.vaIlevair.org/busind/comply/PM1 0/forms/DCP-Form%20-%2010-14-2004.pdf Rule 4102 (Nuisance) applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air contaminants or other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the project creates a public nuisance, it could be in violation and be subject to District enforcement action._ Rule 4103 (Open Burning) regulates the burning of agricultural material. Agricultural material shall not be burned when the land use is converting from agriculture to nonagricultural purposes. In the event that the project burned or burns agricultural material, it would be in violation of Rule 4103 and be subject to District enforcement action. Rule .4601 (Architectural Coatings) limits volatile organic compounds from architectural coatings. This rules specifies architectural coatings storage, clean up and labeling requirements. Ms. Marple May 5, 2005 T-5449, R-05-22 Page 2 Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance Operations). If asphalt paving will be used, then paving operations of this project will be subject to Rule 4641. This rule applies to the manufacture and use of cutback asphalt, slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt for paving and maintenance operations. Rule 4901 (Wood Burning Fireplaces and Wood Burning Heaters) limits PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from residential development. Construction plans for residential developments may be affected by section 5.3, specifically: §5.3 Limitations on Wood Burning Fireplaces or Wood Burning Heaters in New Residential Developments. Beginning January 1, 2004, 5.3.1 No person shall install a wood burning fireplace in a new residential development with a density greater than two(2)dwelling units per acre. 5.3.2 No person shall install more than two (2) EPA Phase 11 Certified wood burning heaters per acre in any new residential development with a density equal to or greater than three (3) dwelling units per acre. 5.3.3 No person shall instali more than one (1) wood burning fireplace or wood burning heater per dwelling unit in any new residential development with a density equal to or less than two (2) dwelling units per acre. More information about Rule 4901 can be found at our website- www.valleyair.org. For compliance assistance, please contact Mr. Wayne Clarke, Air Quality Compliance Manager, at 230-5968. Rule 4902 (Residential Water Heaters) limits emission of NOx from residential developments. The District encourages innovation in measures to reduce air quality impacts. There are a number of features that could be incorporated into the design/operation of this project to provide additional reductions of the overall level of emissions. (Note: Some of the measures may already exist as City development standards. Any measure selected should be implemented to the fullest extent possible.) The suggestions listed below should not be considered all-inclusive and remain options that land-use authority should consider: • Trees should be carefully selected and located to protect the building(s) from energy consuming environmental conditions, and to shade paved areas. Trees should be selected to shade paved areas that will shade 50% of the area within 15 years. Structural soil should be used under paved . areas to improve tree growth. A brochure has been included for the applicant. For Structural Soil see http://www.hort.cornell.edu/uhl/outreach/csc/ For Tree Selection see http://www.ufei.org/ For Urban, Forestry see http://www.ccolcomr-.-,nities.or http://wc!-fre.ucdavis.edu http://www.lgc.org/bookstore/energy/downloads/siv treeguidelines.pdf • If transit service is available to the project site, improvements should be made to encourage its use. If transit service is not currently available, but is planned for the area in the future, easements should be reserved to provide for future improvements such as bus turnouts, loading areas,.route signs and shade structures. Appropriations made to facilitate public or mass transit will help mitigate trips generated by the project. • Sidewalks and bikeways should be installed throughout as much of the project as possible and should be connected to any nearby existing and planned open space areas, parks, schools, residential areas, commercial areas, etc., to encourage walking and bicycling. Connections to nearby public uses and commercial areas should be made as direct as possible to promote walking for some trips. Pedestrian and bike-oriented design reduces motor vehicle usage and their effects on air quality. Sidewalks and bikeways should be designed to separate pedestrian and bicycle pathways from vehicle paths. Sidewalks and bikeways should be designed to be accommodating and appropriately sized for anticipated future pedestrian and bicycle use. Such pathways should be easy to navigate, designed to facilitate pedestrian movement through the project, and create a safe environment for all potential users (pedestrian, bicycle and disabled) from obstacles and automobiles. Ms. Marpfe May 5, 2005 T-5449, R-05-22 Page 3 Mid-block paths should be installed to facilitate pedestrian movement through long blocks (over 500' in length) and cul-de-sacs. Pathways through the project should be built in anticipation of future growth. • As many energy-conserving and emission reducing features as possible should be included in the project. Energy conservation measures include both energy conservation through design and operational energy conservation. Examples include (but are not limited to): - Increased energy efficiency (above California Title 24 Requirements) See http://www.energV.ca.gov/title24/. - Energy efficient widows (double pane and/or Low-E) - Use Low and No-VOC coatings and paints. See South Coast's site for No-VOC Coatings at httip://www-aqmd.gov/business/brochures/zerovoc.html - High-albedo (reflecting) roofing material. See http://eetd.Ib1.gov/coolroof/ - Cool Paving.

See http://wwvv.eere.energV.gov/consumerin o/refbriefs/bc7.html - Energy efficient lighting, appliances, heating and cooling systems. See http://www.energystar.gov/ - Install solar water-heating system(s) - Install photovoltaic cells - Programmable thermostat(s)for all heating and cooling systems - Awnings or other shading mechanism for windows - Porch, patio and walkway overhangs - Ceiling fans, whole house fans - Utilize passive solar cooling and heating designs. (e.g. natural convection, thermal flywheels) See http://www.eere.enerq .gy ov/RE/solar passive.html - Utilize daylighting (natural lighting) systems such as skylights, light shelves, interior transom windows etc. See http://www.advancedbuildings.org - Electrical outlets around the exterior of the unit(s) to encourage use of electric landscape maintenance equipment - Pre-wire the unit(s)with high speed modem connections/DSL and extra phone lines Natural gas fireplaces (instead of wood-burning heaters) - Natural gas lines (if available to this area) and electrical outlets in backyard or patio areas to encourage the use of gas and/or electric barbecues - Low or non-polluting incentives items should be provided with each residential unit (such items could include electric lawn mowers, reel mowers, leaf vacuums, gas or electric barbecues, etc.) - Exits to adjoining streets should be designed to reduce time to re-enter traffic from the project site More information can be found at: http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/GreenBuilding/ http://www.lgc.org, http://www.sustainable.doe.gov/, http://www.consumerenergvicenter.org/index.htmI • The applicant should implement measur3s to,reduce the amount of vehicle traffic to and from the project area that further reduce air pollution in the valley. This could include providing an information center for residents to coordinate carpooling. Check out the "Spare the Air" section of our website www.vallevair.org • The project should include as many clean alternative energy features as possible to promote energy self-sufficiency. Examples include (but are not limited to): photovoltaic cells, solar thermal electricity systems, small wind turbines, etc. Rebate and incentive programs are offered for alternative energy equipment. More information can found at- http://www.dsireusa.org/, http://rredc.nrel.gov/, http://www.energy.ca.gov/renewables/ • Construction activity mitigation measures include: - Limit traffic speeds on unpaved roads to 15 mph - Install sandbags or other erosion control measures to prevent silt runoff to public roadways from sites with a slope greater than one percent - Install wheel washers for all exiting trucks, or wash off all trucks and equipment leaving the site - Install wind breaks at windward side(s)of construction areas - Suspend excavation and grading activity when winds exceed 20 mph - Limit area subject to excavation, grading, and other construction activity at any one time Ms.Marple May 5, 2005 T-5449,R-05-22 Page 4 - Use catalyst equipped diesel construction equipment. - Minimize idling time (e.g. 10 minute maximum) - Limit the hours of operation of heavy duty equipment and/or the amount of equipment in use - Replace fossil-fueled equipment with electrically driven equivalents (provided they are not run via a portable generator set) - Curtail construction during periods of high ambient pollutant concentrations; this may include ceasing of construction activity during the peak-hour of vehicular traffic on adjacent roadways, and "Spare the Air Days" declared by the District. - Implement activity management(e.g. rescheduling activities to reduce short-term impacts) - During the smog season (May through October), lengthen the construction period to minimize the number of vehicles and equipment operating at the same time. - Construction equipment should have engines that are Tier II (if available as certified by the Air Resources Board). Engines built after 1998 are cleaner Tier II engines. Tier I and Tier II (2.5 gram) engines have a significantly less PM and NOx emissions compared to uncontrolled engines. To find engi,:es certified by the Air Resources Board, see http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/offroad/cert/cert.php. This site lists engines -by type, then manufacturer. The "Executive Order" shows what Tier the engine is certified as. For more information on heavy-duty engines, please contact Mr. Kevin McCaffrey, Air Quality Specialist, at (559) 230-5831. - Off road trucks should be equipped with on-road engines when possible. - Light Duty Cars and Trucks should be alternative fueled or hybrids. - Minimize obstruction of traffic on adjacent roadways. District staff is available to meet with you and/or the applicant to further discuss the regulatory requirements that are associated with this project. If you have any questions or require further information, please call me at (559) 230-5800 or Mr. Hector R. Guerra, Senior Air Quality Planner, at (559)230-5820 and provide the reference number at the top of this letter. Sincerely, Catherine Thao Air Quality Student Intern Central Region Enclosures c:file via, San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District COMPLIANCE ASSISTANCE BULLETIN October 2004 Fugitive Dust Control at Construction Sites: New Requirements Regulation Vlll, Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions, of the District's Rules and Regulations apply to activities that generate fugitive dust Fugitive dust is emitted into the air by activities. that disturb the soil, such as from earthmoving activities and vehicular/equipment traffic on unpaved surfaces. Windblown dust is also of concern at construction sites. The District adopted Regulation VIII in 1993 and its most recent amendments became effective on October 1, 2004.: This is a basic summary of.the regulation's requirements as they apply to construction sites. Visible Dust Emissions (VDE) may not exceed 20% opacity during periods when soil is being disturbed -by equipment or by wind.at any.time. Visible Dust Emissions opacity of 20% means dust that would obstruct an observer's view of an.object by 20%. . District inspectors are state certified to evaluate visible emissions. Dust control may be achieved by applying water before/during earthwork and onto unpaved traffic areas, phasing work to limit dust, and setting up wind fences to limit wind blown dust: Soil Stabilization is required at regulated construction sites after normal working hours and on weekends and holidays. This requirement also applies to inactive construction areas such as phased. .projects where disturbed land is left unattended. Applying water to form a visible crust on the soil and restricting vehicle access are often effective for short-term stabilization of disturbed surface areas. Long-term methods including applying dust suppressants and establishing vegetative cover. Carryout and Trackout occur when materials from emptied or loaded vehicles falls onto a paved surface or shoulder of a public road or when materials adhere to vehicle tires and are deposited onto a paved surface or shoulder of a public road. Should"either occur, the material must be cleaned up at least daily, and immediately if it extends more than 50 feet from the exit point onto a paved road. The appropriate clean-up methods require the complete removal and cleanup of mud and dirt from the paved surface and shoulder. Using a blower device or dry sweeping with any mechanical device other than a PM10-efficient street sweeper is a violation. Larger construction sites must prevent carryout and trackout from occurring by installing gravel pads, grizzlies, wheel washers, paved interior roads, ora combination thereof at each exit point from the site. Access and Haul Roads that are unpaved, as well as unpaved vehicle and equipment traffic areas at construction sites must have dust control. Speed. limit signs limiting vehicle speed to 15 mph or less at construction sites must be posted every 500 feet. Storage Piles and Bulk Materials have handling, storage, and transportation requirements that include applying water when handling materials, wetting or covering stored materials, and installing.wind barriers to limit VDE.

Kev >>> Jerry Haynes 09/01/05 11:01 AM >>> Kevin, the PRCS department has reviewed the request to determine whether the Future Community Park site identified in the 2025 General Plan located at Minnewawa and Kings Canyon is necessary.As you know, the City of Fresno recently acquired the former USDA Peach Ave property which is within 1 mile of that intersection. This property is designated as a future Community Park. Based on the above, PRCS will not need a Community Park at Minnewawa and Kings Canyon but we will need a Neighborhood Park at that location.The acres required for a Neighborhood Park is between 8 and 15 acres. PRCS agrees to modify the open space requirement from a Community Park to a Neighborhood Park designation at Minnewawa and Kings Canyon. If you have further questions or need additional information please let me know.Thanks.

I spoke with Dave Wasemiller to explore other development configurations, and I met with the City of Fresno to discuss street patterns. We explored the possibility of changing the configuration of our storage facility and the Wasemiller Tract. [Mr. Wasemiller is not interested in changing the size or configuration of his developmen�Therefore, we must work within the confines of our parcel. We also met with the City of Fresno regarding the street patterns and traffic circulation. The City will not allow any residential street to have direct ., .access to Kings Canyon Road. Therefore, we will proceed with our development design as presented at the neighborhood meeting. Please be aware that the Roosevelt Community Plan has our parcel designated for Medium Density Residential, which allows up to 10.37 dwelling units per acre. If the property is not approved for a Derrel's Mini Storage, it will likely develop into (a) Planned Unit Development, (b) cluster housing or (c) apartments. Given that our site is 10.81 acres, there would be an additional 110 dwelling units instead of a Derrel's Mini Storage facility.

(472-022-15, 472-022-20) Project Description: Valley Pacific Builders, Inc., has filed Rezone Application No. R-05-22 and Tentative Tract Map No. 5449 for approximately 35.8 gross acres of property located on the north side of East Butler Avenue between South Peach and South Minnewawa Avenues. Rezone Application No. R-05-22 proposes to rezone the subject property from the AL-20 (Limited Twenty Acre Agriculture, County of Fresno) zone district to the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zone district. The tentative tract map proposes to subdivide the subject property into a 111-lot single family residential subdivision with one remainder lot with an overall density of 4.45 units per acre. The project also includes the detachment of the subject property from the Fresno County Fire Protection District and the Kings River Conservation District for which the Fresno County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) is the responsible agency. The applications are consistent with the with the planned land uses of medium density and medium-low density residential as designated by both the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Roosevelt Community Plan. Conformance to Master Environmental Impact Report (MSIR NO. 10130): The recently adopted 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Roosevelt Community Plan designate the subject parcel for medium density residential and medium-low density residential planned land uses. The proposed zone district of the subject site conforms to the medium density residential and medium-low density residential planned land use designations as indicated by the 2025 Fresno General Plan "Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix" as well as the adopted Roosevelt Community Plan. The Planning and Development Department staff has prepared an initial study and environmental checklist and evaluated the proposed reorganization in accordance with the land use and environmental policies and provisions of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the related Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) No. 10130. The subject property is proposed for development in the future with single family residential uses at intensity and scale that is permitted by the planned land use and proposed zoning designation for the site. Thus, the rezoning will not facilitate an additional intensification of uses beyond that which already exists or would be allowed by the above-noted planned land use designation. Moreover, it is not expected that the future development will adversely impact existing city service systems or the traffic circulation system that serves the subject parcels. These infrastructure findings have been verified by the Public Works and Public Utilities Departments. It has been further determined that all applicable mitigation measures of MEIR No. 10130 have been applied to the project necessary to assure that the project will not cause significant adverse cumulative impacts, growth inducing impacts, and irreversible significant effects beyond those identified by MEIR No. 10130 as provided by CEQA Section 15178(a). Finding of Conformity Under MEIR No. 10130 Environmental Assessment No. R-05-22IT-5449 Page 2 Per Section 21157.1 of the California Public Resources Code (California Environmental Quality Act), it may be determined that a subsequent project falls within the scope of a MEIR, provided that the project does not cause significant impacts on the environment that were not previously examined by the MEIR. Relative to this specific project proposal, the environmental impacts noted in the MEIR, per the 2025 Fresno General Plan land use designations, include impacts associated with the medium density residential and medium-low density residential land use designations specified for the subject parcel. Based on this initial study, the proposed project does not change the land use indicated for the subject parcel and will not generate additional significant effects not previously identified by the MEIR and no new additional mitigation measures are required. Therefore, the project proposal is within the scope of the MEIR as defined by Section 15177 of the CEQA Guidelines. Moreover, as lead agency for this project, the Planning and Development Department, per Section 15177 (d) of the CEQA Guidelines, has determined that all feasible mitigation measures from MEIR No. 10130 shall apply to the project proposal as noted in the attached mitigation monitoring checklist. Public notice has been provided regarding staffs finding in a manner prescribed by this section of the Guidelines and by Section 21092 of the California Public Resources Code (CEQA provisions).
