ARROYO LAGO RESIDENTIAL PROJECT ADDENDUM 174 FCS Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480036/Addendum/21480036 Arroyo Lago Residential Project Addendum.docx Discussion a) Conflict with Circulation System Plan, Ordinance, or Policy Would the project: Conflict with a program plan, ordinance or policy of the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities? Prior FEIR Conclusions The Prior FEIR found that the County Project would generate bicycle, pedestrian, and transit trips and includes infrastructure to support these modes. The County Project proposes a sidewalk along Busch Road connecting to Ironwood Drive, internal pedestrian pathways, and bicycle storage at a central park. Although the project site is more than 0.5-mile walking distance from the nearest transit stop,54 residents could access Wheels Route 10R and the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station via the Iron Horse Regional Trail. These features align with ECAP Policy 189, which promotes transit, bicycle, and pedestrian systems in major projects. Therefore, the County Project would not conflict with applicable circulation system policies. The Prior FEIR concluded that impacts would be less than significant. (Draft EIR, pp. 3.16-19, 6-20, 6-21). Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion Consistent with the analysis in the Prior FEIR, the proposed project would generate bicycle, pedestrian, and transit trips and includes infrastructure to support these modes of transportation. Currently, there are no pedestrian or bicycle facilities that provide access to the project site. However, a separate approved and entitled project (the Villages at the Quarry Project) is required to make various roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian improvements to Busch Road, including bike lanes, sidewalks, a Class IV multiuse path, a roundabout that provides access to both the Villages at the Quarry Project and the proposed project’s entrances, and a dedicated queueing lane for the PGS, all of which would be available for the benefit of the proposed project’s residents as well. If the Villages at the Quarry Project does not proceed, the proposed project would be required to implement the applicable Busch Road bicycle and pedestrian improvements to ensure adequate multimodal access to the project site as addressed in the proposed project’s PADA, as described in Section 2.3.4, above. The proposed project would include the construction of approximately 0.5 mile of multiuse trails on the northern boundary of the project site and the western side of Street A in accordance with applicable City standards, including the design guidelines outlined in the City’s Trails Master Plan. The Trails Master Plan envisions a new Class I Trail along El Charro Road connecting Busch Road and the existing Arroyo Mocho Trail to the north of the project site across the Chain of Lakes.55 54 Although certain transit stops are located within approximately 0.5 mile of the project site when measured as a straight-line (“as-the-crow-flies”) distance, the actual pedestrian travel distance exceeds 0.5 mile due to the absence of direct walking routes and the need to follow the existing street and path network. 55 City of Pleasanton. 2019.
