The Planning Center I DC&E will utilize the existing conditions data collected in Task 4 to describe the existing recreation setting within the City. Based on the recreation significance criteria, The Planning Center I DC&E will assess potential parks and recreation impacts. If necessary, mitigation measures in the form of policy recommendations will be listed to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels. n. Traffic/Transportation Kittelson & Associates will evaluate traffic and transportation impacts. The existing traffic and transportation setting will be described, based on the same information compiled in Task 4. Kittelson will then provide an analysis of future transportation conditions, and will identify necessary mitigation measures. The analysis will focus on the same intersections, street segments, and pedestrian- bicycle focus areas analyzed in the General Plan Existing Conditions analysis. Land use assumptions on a parcel-specific basis will be obtained for any sites that could accommodate new/ intensified development in the city. The trip generation rates to be applied to the various categories of development will be detailed, including deductions to account for mixed use and TOD. The traffic impact analysis for the EIR will be coordinated with City staff and to the extent possible maintain consistency with the assumptions and methodologies used in recent F_IRs, including the Kaiser Medical Center EIR, the Shoreline Development EIR,and other studies recently conducted in San Leandro. Much of the technical analysis necessary to support the General Plan EIR will be conducted as part of developing the Circulation Element. Specifically, the EIR analysis will use the roadway diagrams representing future roadway and ultimate right-of-way requirements to accommodate the future growth. For purposes of the EIR, potential deficiencies in the circulation system will be evaluated using the thresholds of significance from the draft Circulation Element. Potential circulation deficiencies resulting from the implementation of the General Plan will be identified and mitigation measures will be prescribed to minimize potentially significant impacts. The scope assumes that a detailed quantitative analysis of two scenarios will be included in the EIR. The first scenario will evaluate the baseline impacts as if no- project were adopted and the second scenario will be the final preferred Project alternative for the General Plan Update. The preferred alternative land uses will be developed by the City and the consultant team and may include land use and THE PLANNING CENTER I DC&E 40 MARCH 3.2014
