<br />Ruby Hill Event Center <br />PUD-93-02-08M <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />a-b) The proposed development is a commercial project that would be treated as a destination of <br />an event. It provides activities within its complex. It is unlikely that event patrons would <br />patronize existing parks such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would <br />occur, or result in a demand to expand the existing recreational facilities. Therefore, there <br />is no impact. <br /> <br />IS. TRANSPORTATION AND TRAFFIC <br /> <br />Environmental Setting and Approved projects consist of developments that have final <br />development plan approval from the City but are either not built, under construction, or partially <br />occupied. Approved proj ect are used to forecast near term traffic conditions. <br />Generation of future traffic volumes is based on information contained in the City's Baseline <br />Approved land use database, which is typically updated annually to include current approvals <br />and to delete approved projects that have been constructed and occupied. Build-out projects <br />consist of development that have not received final pIan approval from the City but have been <br />identified to be completed in the long term with the build out of the General Plan. <br /> <br />Standards of Significance <br /> <br />For purposes ofthis environmental document, an impact is considered significant if the proposed <br />project would: <br /> <br />· Result in reducing the Level of Service from D to E or worse. <br /> <br /> Less Than <br /> Potentially Significant Less Than <br /> Significant With Mitigation Significant No <br />Issues Impact Incorporated Impact Impact <br />Transuortation and Traffic <br />Would the project: <br />a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in D D ~ D <br /> relation to the existing traffic load and capacity <br /> of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial <br /> increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the <br /> volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion <br /> at intersections)? <br />b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a D D ~ D <br /> level of service standard established by the <br /> county congestion management agency for <br /> designated roads or highways? <br />c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including D D ~ D <br /> <br />30 <br />
