PUD-74 Environmental Checklist <br />Seven intersections were analyzed in the traffic study based on the number of trips that the <br />project adds to the intersections and the existing level of service (LOS) at the intersections. All <br />seven of the study intersections currently operate at LOS "D" or better. Adding traffic from the <br />approved but not built/completed projects will result in one intersection not meeting the LOS <br />"D" or better standazd: <br />• Valley Avenue at Santa Rita Road -LOS "E" in the PM peak hour <br />Adding the traffic from the proposed project to the approved projects will not result in any <br />additional intersections exceeding the LOS "D" or better standard. The project would add a very <br />small overall average delay of 1.6 seconds to the Valley Avenue/Santa Rita Road intersection. <br />Pazkine <br />Two gazage parking spaces would be provided per unit. In addition, residential driveways would <br />be at least 20-feet long to accommodate pazked vehicles with the garage door in a closed <br />position. On-street parking would also be allowed in front of the residences. Eleven <br />perpendicular and eight pazallel parking spaces would be provided for the clubhouse in case <br />residents choose to drive to the facility. <br />Standards of Significance <br />For purposes of this environrnental document, an impact is considered significant if the proposed <br />project would: <br />• Result in reducing the Level of Service to E or worse, except in the Downtown. <br />Less Than <br />Potentially Significant Less Than <br />Significant Wi[h Mitigation Significant No <br />Issues Impact Incorporated Impact Impact <br />Transportation and Traffic <br />Would the project: <br />a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in ~ ~ ~X <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 congestton <br />at intersections)? <br />b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a <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 <br />34 <br />
