Chapter 4 Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures O. Transportation and Traffic . Some provision for emergency vehicle access (EVA) to the open spaces and other publicly-accessible areas should be provided. With incorporation of these measures, impacts relating to emergency vehicle access would be reduced to the less-than-significant level. (5) Inadequate Parking Capacity Given the preliminary status of the site plan, the parking allocations cited for the plan appear reasonable. The following measures have been included in the Specific Plan Transportation Element to reduce the occurrence of periodic severe parking shortages: . When PUD development plans proceed for uses that would be major trip attractors, estimates for the average number of people per vehicle should be used to refine the proposed parking supply for each such use. . Special events should be scheduled so that no more than one such event occurs at any given time. . The parking supply should be managed so as to avoid shared use parking except under special and specific conditions. With incorporation of these measures, impacts relating to parking adequacy would be reduced to the less-than-significant level. (6) Conflict with Transportation Policies, Plans, or Programs Supporting Non-automobile Travel The Specific Plan and the BCP Master Plan will be developed consistent with the City of Pleasanton roadway and intersection standards. A conceptual plan for non-auto circulation is included in the Specific Plan (see Figure 22). Locations for bus turnouts have been provisionally designated. The following measures, integrating Pleasanton General Plan policies and design guidelines established by the Alameda County CMA for mitigation of vehicular traffic impacts, have been included in the Specific Plan Transportation Element to support non-automobile travel: . As part of the final site plan design, the City shall coordinate with the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority (LAVTA) to establish a policy to revise current transit routes to better serve the site. As part of this coordination, provision and placement of bus stops should be included to serve major destinations within the site, including the sports fields and stadiums (baseball, soccer, and football/ lacrosse), the potential cultural arts center, and the potential youth/community center. In addition, bus stops should be located near trailheads or major access points to trail and open space areas. 143
