Shoreline CAC February 17, 2010 Meeting Highlights Page ~4 (unnecessary) and would not be permitted. The plans must be prepared to have minimal or no fill in the Bay. 2. Traffic-Reh-Lin Chen, City of San Leandro, Engineering and Transportation Department Transportation Engineer Chen gave a powerpoint presentation. which gave an overview of a preliminary traffic analysis of proposed new development at the shoreline. Transportation planning analysis covered trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice and trip assignment. Roadway system impact analysis studied roadway handling capacities, intersection capacities and operations and mitigation measures. Two-way traffic access to the shoreline area via Marina Boulevard and Fairway Drive was preferred versus one-way circulation. The two-way traffic scenario would amount to Levels of Service (LOS) A or B on Marina and Fairway. LOS A,B, C and D are allowed. Projected traffic volumes for the shoreline, considering the impact of the proposed Kaiser hospital and medical center with adjoining retail development would require configuration of various intersections including: Davis/Doolittle; Doolittle/Marina, and Marina/Merced. The shoreline's contribution to mitigation at these intersections would be approximately 1.5°!°, 13.5% and 7.5% respectively. In addition to traffic mitigation costs the shoreline development would be required to pay traffic fees including Development Fee for Street Improvements (DFSI) which is estimated to be $1.67 million based on Discussion Plan 2 floor area and the fair share for Interstate 880/Marina Interchange which is estimated to be $690.,000. The estimated total sum of fees is $2.36 million. Discussion, including questions and answers, .between the Shoreline CAC, Mr. Chen ensued (comments from the CAC are non-italic; comments from Mr. Chen are in italic). • Fairway Drive should be considered to have additional. lanes, up to four, to handle additional traffic capacity to the shoreline area for the expected higher intensity development. • In addition to Marina Boulevard and Fairway Drive handling east-west access to the shoreline area, Williams Street and Neptune Drive should also be considered in handling traffic volume to the shoreline. • Magnetic loops and coordinated timing at signalized intersections were strongly recommended. All intersections will include synchronized systems with the detection loops. It will be a new advanced system that will enhance and improve capacity and through-put volume. 3. Compatibility with Golf Course-Cynthia Battenberg, Business Development Manager Manager Battenberg provided an update on discussions with American Golf Corporation (ACG) regarding how the proposed project could complement/impact Monarch Bay's golf operations. AGC shared their plans for the future, which given the economy and a decrease in overall golf play, did not include significant investment in the golf facility.
