Via Email to: [email protected] & [email protected] Re: Native American Tribal Consultation, Pursuant to the Assembly Bill 52 (AB 52), Amendments to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Chapter 532, Statutes of 2014), Public Resources Code Sections 5097.94 (m), 21073, 21074, 21080.3.1, 21080.3.2, 21082.3, 21083.09, 21084.2 and 21084.3, Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan Project, Fresno County Dear Dr. DePietro:

Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1 (c), attached is a consultation list of tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the above-listed project. Please note that the intent of the AB 52 amendments to CEQA is to avoid and/or mitigate impacts to tribal cultural resources, (Pub. Resources Code §21084.3 (a)) (“Public agencies shall, when feasible, avoid damaging effects to any tribal cultural resource.”) Public Resources Code sections 21080.3.1 and 21084.3(c) require CEQA lead agencies to consult with California Native American tribes that have requested notice from such agencies of proposed projects in the geographic area that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the tribes on projects for which a Notice of Preparation or Notice of Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration has been filed on or after July 1, 2015. Specifically, Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1 (d) provides:

Within 14 days of determining that an application for a project is complete or a decision by a public agency to undertake a project, the lead agency shall provide formal notification to the designated contact of, or a tribal representative of, traditionally and culturally affiliated California Native American tribes that have requested notice, which shall be accomplished by means of at least one written notification that includes a brief description of the proposed project and its location, the lead agency contact information, and a notification that the California Native American tribe has 30 days to request consultation pursuant to this section.

The AB 52 amendments to CEQA law does not preclude initiating consultation with the tribes that are culturally and traditionally affiliated within your jurisdiction prior to receiving requests for notification of projects in the tribe’s areas of traditional and cultural affiliation. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) recommends, but does not require, early consultation as a best practice to ensure that lead agencies receive sufficient information about cultural resources in a project area to avoid damaging effects to tribal cultural resources.

The NAHC also recommends, but does not require that agencies should also include with their notification letters, information regarding any cultural resources assessment that has been completed on the area of potential effect (APE), such as:

1. The results of any record search that may have been conducted at an Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), including, but not limited to:

• A listing of any and all known cultural resources that have already been recorded on or adjacent to the APE, such as known archaeological sites;
• Copies of any and all cultural resource records and study reports that may have been provided by the Information Center as part of the records search response; • Whether the records search indicates a low, moderate, or high probability that unrecorded cultural resources are located in the APE; and
• If a survey is recommended by the Information Center to determine whether previously unrecorded cultural resources are present.

2. The results of any archaeological inventory survey that was conducted, including:
• Any report that may contain site forms, site significance, and suggested mitigation measures.

All information regarding site locations, Native American human remains, and associated funerary objects should be in a separate confidential addendum, and not be made available for public disclosure in accordance with Government Code section 6254.10.

3. The result of any Sacred Lands File (SLF) check conducted through the Native American Heritage Commission was negative.

4. Any ethnographic studies conducted for any area including all or part of the APE; and

5. Any geotechnical reports regarding all or part of the APE.

Lead agencies should be aware that records maintained by the NAHC and CHRIS are not exhaustive and a negative response to these searches does not preclude the existence of a tribal cultural resource. A tribe may be the only source of information regarding the existence of a tribal cultural resource.

This information will aid tribes in determining whether to request formal consultation. In the event that they do, having the information beforehand will help to facilitate the consultation process.

If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify the NAHC. With your assistance, we can assure that our consultation list remains current.

If you have any questions, please contact me at my email address: [email protected].

Fresno, CA, 93720
Subject: Proposed Central Southeast Specific Plan Project Dear Chairperson Alvarez:

FirstCarbon Solutions (FCS) is preparing a Cultural Resources analysis for the proposed Central Southeast Specific Plan project on behalf of the City of Fresno. As part of the environmental review process, we are searching for records pertaining to cultural resources in the area surrounding the project site described below. Attached is a Records Search map with a 0.5-mile buffer around the site for your reference.

The Central Southeast Specific Plan will focus on low income neighborhoods. This area consists of approximately 2,200 acres. Residential, commercial, and office development in the community has been hampered by the City’s emphasis on new growth in the metropolitan area, by incomplete public facilities, and by negative community perceptions.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Please note that this letter is a request for information pertaining to a cultural resources assessment and is not notification of a project under Senate Bill (SB) 18, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Please feel free to contact me at 530.219.1432 or via email at [email protected] and thank you for your valuable assistance.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Please note that this letter is a request for information pertaining to a cultural resources assessment and is not notification of a project under Senate Bill (SB) 18, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

Attached is a Records Search map with a 0.5-mile buffer around the site for your reference.

The Central Southeast Specific Plan will focus on low income neighborhoods. This area consists of approximately 2,200 acres. Residential, commercial, and office development in the community has been hampered by the City’s emphasis on new growth in the metropolitan area, by incomplete public facilities, and by negative community perceptions.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Please note that this letter is a request for information pertaining to a cultural resources assessment and is not notification of a project under Senate Bill (SB) 18, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

City of Fresno Santa Barbara Office
File: 2064158700 Date: February 15, 2022
Reference: Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study The following Final Traffic Study provides an overview of potential traffic impacts generated by the Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) Land Use Plan. The study compares the growth projections developed by Raimi + Associates (December 19, 2019) for the Specific Plan Area to land use assumptions applied in the City of Fresno General Plan Recirculated Public Review Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) (March 2021) and evaluates the traffic volume changes for each Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) in the Specific Plan Area under General Plan (2035) conditions. A Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis is provided in a separate document. Comments provided by City staff on the Draft Traffic Study (August 23, 2021) are also incorporated in this Final Traffic Study.

EXISTING CONDITIONS
The Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) encompasses approximately 14 city blocks in the southeast portion of the City of Fresno. The Specific Plan is bordered by Belmont Avenue to the north, East Avenue to the west, Church Avenue to the south, and Peach Avenue to the east.

The Plan Area is served by a network of arterials, collectors and local streets. Based on information contained in the General Plan PEIR Appendix J – Traffic Impact Analysis (March 2021), the existing 2035 AM and PM peak hour roadway analysis includes 282 roadways located throughout the City of Fresno, of which 18 roadway segments are located in or directly adjacent to the Specific Plan Area. These 18 roadway segments would potentially be affected by peak hour volume changes resulting from the CSESP Land Use Plan and are evaluated in this traffic and circulation study. These segments are listed in Table 1 along with the existing level of service (LOS) designation. A table showing the AM and PM peak hour volumes is attached for reference.

The City has four Traffic Impact Zones (TIZ I through IV) with different LOS thresholds. In addition, TIZ U denotes unincorporated Fresno County. The Specific Plan roadway segments are located in all five zones, for which the peak hour LOS standards are LOS D through F. As shown in Table 1, all roadway segments included in this analysis currently operate at acceptable service levels based on the level of service data contained in the General Plan PEIR and the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

GENERAL PLAN (2035) CONDITIONS
General Plan 2035 traffic volumes contained in the PEIR were developed using the Fresno COG travel demand model (ABM) and are based on socioeconomic data (SED) for the year 2035 as included in the 2050 Fresno County Growth Projections report prepared by Fresno COG. Detailed technical information regarding the development of 2035 volumes is presented in the General Plan PEIR Appendix J – Traffic Impact Analysis and its technical appendices.

Reference: Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study

The General Plan (2035) conditions analysis includes implementation of the Circulation Element configuration of the roadway network to reflect the City’s Mobility goals. Based on the General Plan Circulation Element, the following modifications are proposed to be implemented to the roadway segments in the CSESP Plan Area:
 Jensen Avenue will be widened to a six-lane Super Arterial between Orange Avenue and Highland Avenue.
 Church Avenue will be widened to a four-lane Collector from Cedar Avenue to Maple Avenue.  Belmont Avenue will be converted from a four-lane Arterial to a two-lane Collector from First Street to Cedar Street.

Table 2 summarizes the General Plan 2035 roadway segment peak hour volumes and levels of service for the 18 roadway segments the CSESP Plan Area. A table showing the 2035 AM and PM peak hour volumes is attached for reference. Table 2 indicates that the roadway segments included in this study are forecast to operate at acceptable service levels under General Plan 2035 conditions based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

CSESP Land Use Assumptions
To determine the traffic volume changes within the Specific Plan resulting from the CSESP Land Use Plan and assumptions, a comparison is provided between the land use assumptions used in the 2014 City of Fresno General Plan and Development Code Update Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) with the currently proposed CSESP Land Use Plan. The 2021 General Plan PEIR does not provide specific information regarding housing unit and/or non-residential square foot increases per TAZ for the Year 2035. The socioeconomic data used in the Fresno COG traffic model for the PEIR is derived from housing unit and employment (job) increase projections contained in the previous 2014 General Plan MEIR. Thus, the residential and non-residential data for the Specific Plan contained in the 2014 MEIR are consistent with the data used for the 2021 PEIR.

The CSESP Land Use Plan is based on the growth projections and capacity analysis completed by Raimi + Associates for the Specific Plan Area with a 2035 horizon. The growth projections assume the maximum amount of residential and non-residential development that could occur on each vacant or underutilized parcels. A growth adjustment scenario was provided that assumes 60 percent of the maximum residential growth and 40 percent of the maximum non-residential growth could occur by the 2035 horizon. To provide a traffic comparison that is consistent with the 2021 PEIR, the analysis applies the reasonable growth projection that could occur by 2035.

The General Plan land use growth data in the 2014 MEIR is provided in housing units and employment (jobs).

Jobs were converted into non-residential square feet (SF) in order to develop trip generation estimates, because trip generation rates per SF are more stable than rates per employee (jobs) and are the industry standard. To generate trip estimates for the non-residential land uses included in the MEIR, Stantec converted the job increase per TAZ to square footage based on land use assumptions (Office, Retail, Light Industrial etc.) and the relationship between ITE rate for employees and ITE rate for KSF for each land use.

For example, ITE Land Use #710 - General Office Building has a trip generation rate of 9.74 Average Daily Trips (ADT) per KSF and a rate of 3.28 ADT per employee. Based on this relationship, there are 3 employees per 1,000 SF (9.74 / 3.28). Thus, if the 2014 MEIR projected a growth of 12 jobs under the land use Office, the resulting building square footage would be 4,000 SF.

Reference: Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study

Table 3 provides an overview of the proposed land use changes per Specific Plan TAZ. As shown, the proposed CSESP Land Use Plan would result in residential and non-residential development slightly below the growth projected in the General Plan buildout (278 fewer housing units and 128,858 fewer square feet (SF) of nonresidential building space).

Trip Generation Estimates
Trip generation estimates were developed for each TAZ in the Specific Plan Area based on the anticipated housing unit and non-residential square-footage growth, and trip generation rates contained in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (10th Edition, 2017) for each projected land use.

Detailed trip generation worksheets are attached for reference. The trip generation estimates per TAZ are summarized in Table 4.

1 A pass-by rate of 34% (ITE Trip Generation Manual) is applied to commercial land uses to account for vehicles already on the adjacent roadway system that visit the site.

The trip generation data contained in Table 4 indicates that compared to the General Plan, the proposed CSESP land use changes would result in an overall reduction of traffic in the Specific Plan area of 8,102 average daily trips (ADT), a reduction of 351 AM peak hour trips and a reduction of 1,180 PM peak hour trips compared to GP 2035 conditions. Significant peak hour trip reductions are expected in four TAZ’s (1433, 1453, 1469 and February 15, 2022

1478), while any potential trip increase per TAZ is moderate with a maximum of 134 peak hour trips in TAZ 1472.

Roadway Segment Impact Assessment
The roadway segment analysis contained in the PEIR focusses on 282 roadways located throughout the City of Fresno, of which 18 roadway segments are located in or directly adjacent to the Specific Plan Area. The existing conditions analysis indicates that the 18 roadway segments that could be affected by Specific Plan land use changes currently operate at acceptable service levels based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards. The PEIR also indicates that all 18 roadway segments are forecast to operate at acceptable service levels under General Plan 2035 with Circulation Element conditions based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

The Specific Plan area trip generation estimates outlined in this study found that the CSESP Land Use Plan would result in an overall reduction of traffic in the Specific Plan area of 8,102 ADT, a reduction of 351 AM peak hour trips and a reduction of 1,180 PM peak hour trips compared to GP 2035 conditions. With respect to roadway segment operations, the following finding are made:
 4 TAZ’s could expect significant peak hour trip reductions (more than 260 PHT), which would result in increased levels of service on the roadway segments directly adjacent to each TAZ.

 10 TAZ’S could expect slight peak hour trip reductions or increase (-89 PHT to 65 PHT), which would not result in noticeable traffic volume change once distributed onto the study-area roadway network.  4 TAZ’s could expect moderate peak hour trip increases (more than 100 PHT to 150 PHT), which would result in slight increases in traffic volume on the roadway segments directly adjacent to each TAZ.

These slight increases would not have the potential to change the 2035 roadway segment level of service levels contained in the PEIR.

Table 2 indicated that 17 of the 18 roadway segments included in this study are expected to operate at LOS AC under 2035 GP with Circulation Element conditions, well within each roadway’s minimum level of service standard. One segment – Belmont Avenue between First Street and Cedar Avenue - will be reduced from 4 lanes to 2 lanes and is expected to operate in the LOS F range per the General Plan PEIR (see Table 2). Given that Belmont Ave is on the northern boundary of the Specific Plan area and the nearest TAZ (1430) would see a reduction in trips assuming the CSESP Land Use Plan, no changes to the roadway segment’s level of service would occur.

Conclusions
The level of service data and trip generation data provided in this study indicates that the CSESP Land Use Plan would not result in any changes to the roadway segment peak hour levels of service contained in City of Fresno General Plan Recirculated Public Review Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) (March 2021).

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 16, 2022
TO: Sophia Pagoulatos and Drew Wilson, City of Fresno
FROM: Ambarish Mukherjee, Principal, LSA
SUBJECT: Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan ‐ Vehicle Miles Traveled Analysis LSA has prepared this memorandum documenting the methodology and findings of a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis for the Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) (project/specific plan) in the City of Fresno (City). Based on our understanding of the project, modifications are currently being proposed for some of the CSESP land uses. As such, these updates within CSESP would require a General Plan Amendment (GPA). Since the project is a specific plan, it qualifies as a land use plan. Therefore, the project’s VMT analysis needs to be prepared using the criteria set forth in the City’s CEQA Guidelines for VMT Thresholds (VMT Guidelines) adopted June 25, 2020 for land use plans. The City’s VMT guidelines require that for land use plans, the project’s VMT per capita and VMT per employee under forecast/cumulative scenario be compared to the corresponding base year VMT per capita/employee to determine whether the project would have a significant VMT impact.  Additionally, this memorandum also provides VMT per capita and VMT per employee under the no project cumulative scenario (no changes to the General Plan) for uses within the CSESP area.

Although analysis of this scenario is not required per the City’s guidelines, the findings from this analysis will help develop a narrative regarding whether the proposed project would be beneficial in reducing VMT per capita and VMT per employee under cumulative conditions. The Fresno Council of Governments (Fresno COG) Activity Based Model (ABM) has been used to determine VMT impact of the proposed changes.

INTRODUCTION
On December 28, 2018, the California Office of Administrative Law cleared the revised California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for use. Among the changes to the guidelines was removal of vehicle delay and level of service from consideration under CEQA. With the adopted guidelines, transportation impacts are to be evaluated based on a project’s/plan’s effect on VMT.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Fresno CSESP is a long‐term, comprehensive planning document which provides the basis for implementation of the City’s General Plan over the 2,200‐acre Plan Area. The CSESP provides policies relating to land use and urban design, transportation, public spaces, and economic development, as well as a range of specific projects that would address these policies in areas considered deficient in their existing condition. The CSESP Public Draft, completed in April 2021, defines the Plan Area, and shows proposed land use changes as shown in Figure 1. 8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx) Figure 1: CSESP Plan Area and Proposed Land Use Changes 8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx)

METHODOLOGY
These updates within CSESP would require a GPA. Since the project is a specific plan, it qualifies as a land use plan. Therefore, the project’s VMT analysis needs to be prepared using the criteria set forth in the City’s VMT Guidelines, 2020, for land use plans.

The VMT Guidelines also provide multiple screening criteria for land use projects. However, given the project is a specific plan with an amendment and would require a GPA, the screening criteria are not applicable and hence a complete VMT analysis was conducted.

The City’s VMT guidelines require that for land use plans, the project’s VMT per capita and VMT per employee under forecast/cumulative scenario be compared to the corresponding base year VMT per capita/employee to determine whether the project would have a significant VMT impact.

The Fresno Council of Governments (Fresno COG) Activity Based Model (ABM) has been used to determine VMT impact of the proposed changes. Total CSESP area comprises of 19 ABM/model Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) – 1096, 1115, 1117, 1135, 1136, 1137, 1138, 1139, 1140, 1153, 1154, 1155, 1156, 1157, 1166, 1167, 1168, 1169 and 1170 as shown in Figure 2.

The current amendment is proposing changes in approximately 14 different areas within the specific plan (identified in Figure 1). The 14 different areas fall within 11 ABM TAZs. The proposed land uses within these 14 areas are shown in Figure 3. The city provided the existing and proposed CSESP land uses for these amended areas/parcels.

PROJECT TRAFFIC ANALYSIS ZONES UPDATE
LSA converted the amended parcel land uses into model socioeconomic categories using generic land use to socioeconomic conversion factors. The conversion factors are same as the conversion factors used during the City’s latest General Plan update. Table 1 shows the conversion factors used to convert the CSESP amended land uses into model socioeconomic categories.

LSA understands that the conversion was conducted using maximum densities as specific probable densities are unavailable and use of maximum densities would also present with a conservative scenario.

The Fresno COG ABM includes ability to split zones/add new zones. As indicated before, the 14 different areas with amendments fall within 11 ABM TAZs. To isolate the effect of the amendments, 10 new TAZs were created for the 11 different areas. Amendments in existing TAZs 1153 and 1154 were combined into one new TAZ, given parcels in both areas contain same land use type and are adjacent to one another.

Given that the proposed project is an amendment to the 2035 General Plan, the amended land uses cannot be directly added to the model but the 2035 growth in the Fresno COG model dataset need to be adjusted appropriately before adding the amendments.

Upon conversion of the amendment land uses to socioeconomic data (SED), the General Plan SED from Fresno COG 2035 was adjusted appropriately and SED for the amendment was added into the new model TAZs. Comparison of SED between CSESP amendments and Fresno COG growth (2035 – 2019) was conducted at a TAZ level.

Table 3 illustrates the existing 2019, 2035 ABM, CSESP amendment SEDs, and the corresponding adjusted SED for the parent/original TAZs. The adjusted SED for the parent/original TAZs was arrived by the following methodology:
 For each TAZ, if proposed CSESP SED is higher than the model growth, then entire growth for the TAZ was removed from Fresno COG 2035 model.
8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx)  If model growth is higher than CSESP SED then, the model growth was adjusted to the difference between model growth and CSESP SED (model growth minus CSESP amendment data).

The corresponding SED for the proposed CSESP was added to the new TAZs as a conservative approach. Same methodology was followed for both households and total employment. The resulting 2035 SED for the parent TAZs is illustrated under the “Adjusted 2035 ABM” columns of Table 3. The 2035 SED for the project TAZs is illustrated in previously referenced Table 2.

MODEL RUNS AND PROJECT VMT ESTIMATION
A horizon year (2035) model run was conducted using the adjusted socioeconomic data for the original zones (Table 3) and amended socioeconomic data for the new TAZs (Table 2). No roadway or transit network modifications were conducted for the model run with the CSESP amendments.

The outputs from this updated model run were used to calculate the VMT per capita and VMT per employee for the proposed amendments.

As indicated before, for land use plans, the City’s guidelines recommend use of VMT per capita to evaluate residential land uses and VMT per employee to evaluate non‐residential land uses. Since the project contains both residential and non‐residential uses, LSA estimated VMT per capita for the amended parcel’s residential land uses and VMT per employee for the non‐residential land uses.

VMT metrics for Fresno COG ABM include two components, internal‐internal (II) and internal‐ external/external‐internal (IXXI) VMT. Both II VMT and IX/XI VMT were included in the estimation of overall project VMT per capita and VMT per employee.

PROJECT VMT ANALYSIS
Table 4 shows the VMT metrics for the amended parcels only. As can be seen from Table 4, the proposed amendments/project does not constitute a significant VMT impact.

As can be seen from Tables 5 and 6, (both VMT per capita and VMT per employee) for the entire CSESP area with proposed amendments (project) as the CSESP area without proposed amendments (no project) scenarios would not have a significant VMT impact. Additionally, as can be identified from both tables, the project would have a lower VMT per capita and VMT per employee compared to the no project scenario within the entire CSESP plan area.

CHRIS Data Request Form
Mark the request form as needed. Attach a PDF of your project area (with the radius if applicable) mapped on a

7.5’ USGS topographic quadrangle to scale 1:24000 ratio 1:1 neither enlarged nor reduced and include a shapefile of your project area, if available. Shapefiles are the current CHRIS standard for submitting digital spatial data for your project area or radius. Check with the appropriate IC for current availability of digital data products.
• Documents will be provided in PDF format. Paper copies will only be provided if PDFs are not available at the time of the request or under specially arranged circumstances. • Location information will be provided as a digital map product (Custom Maps or GIS data) unless the area has not yet been digitized. In such circumstances, the IC may provide hand drawn maps. • In addition to the $150/hr. staff time fee, client will be charged the Custom Map fee when GIS is required to complete the request [e.g., a map printout or map image/PDF is requested and no GIS Data is requested, or an electronic product is requested (derived from GIS data) but no mapping is requested].

For product fees, see the CHRIS IC Fee Structure on the OHP website.

http://websoilsurvey.nrcs.usda.gov/app/WebSoilSurvey.aspx Please forward a copy of any resulting reports from this project to the office as soon as possible. Due to the sensitive nature of archaeological site location data, we ask that you do not include resource location maps and resource location descriptions in your report if the report is for public distribution. If you have any questions regarding the results presented herein, please contact the office at the phone number listed above.

The provision of CHRIS Data via this records search response does not in any way constitute public disclosure of records otherwise exempt from disclosure under the California Public Records Act or any other law, including, but not limited to, records related to archeological site information maintained by or on behalf of, or in the possession of, the State of California, Department of Parks and Recreation, State Historic Preservation Officer, Office of Historic Preservation, or the State Historical Resources Commission.

Due to processing delays and other factors, not all of the historical resource reports and resource records that have been submitted to the Office of Historic Preservation are available via this records search. Additional information may be available through the federal, state, and local agencies that produced or paid for historical resource management work in the search area. Additionally, Native American tribes have historical resource information not in the CHRIS Inventory, and you should contact the California Native American Heritage Commission for information on local/regional tribal contacts.

Should you require any additional information for the above referenced project, reference the record search number listed above when making inquiries. Invoices for Information Center services will be sent under separate cover from the California State University, Bakersfield Accounting Office.

Thank you for using the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS).

Sincerely,
Jeremy E. David

Via Email to: [email protected] & [email protected] Re: Native American Tribal Consultation, Pursuant to the Assembly Bill 52 (AB 52), Amendments to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Chapter 532, Statutes of 2014), Public Resources Code Sections 5097.94 (m), 21073, 21074, 21080.3.1, 21080.3.2, 21082.3, 21083.09, 21084.2 and 21084.3, Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan Project, Fresno County Dear Dr. DePietro:

Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1 (c), attached is a consultation list of tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the above-listed project. Please note that the intent of the AB 52 amendments to CEQA is to avoid and/or mitigate impacts to tribal cultural resources, (Pub. Resources Code §21084.3 (a)) (“Public agencies shall, when feasible, avoid damaging effects to any tribal cultural resource.”) Public Resources Code sections 21080.3.1 and 21084.3(c) require CEQA lead agencies to consult with California Native American tribes that have requested notice from such agencies of proposed projects in the geographic area that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the tribes on projects for which a Notice of Preparation or Notice of Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration has been filed on or after July 1, 2015. Specifically, Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1 (d) provides:

Within 14 days of determining that an application for a project is complete or a decision by a public agency to undertake a project, the lead agency shall provide formal notification to the designated contact of, or a tribal representative of, traditionally and culturally affiliated California Native American tribes that have requested notice, which shall be accomplished by means of at least one written notification that includes a brief description of the proposed project and its location, the lead agency contact information, and a notification that the California Native American tribe has 30 days to request consultation pursuant to this section.

The AB 52 amendments to CEQA law does not preclude initiating consultation with the tribes that are culturally and traditionally affiliated within your jurisdiction prior to receiving requests for notification of projects in the tribe’s areas of traditional and cultural affiliation. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) recommends, but does not require, early consultation as a best practice to ensure that lead agencies receive sufficient information about cultural resources in a project area to avoid damaging effects to tribal cultural resources.

The NAHC also recommends, but does not require that agencies should also include with their notification letters, information regarding any cultural resources assessment that has been completed on the area of potential effect (APE), such as:

1. The results of any record search that may have been conducted at an Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), including, but not limited to:

• A listing of any and all known cultural resources that have already been recorded on or adjacent to the APE, such as known archaeological sites;
• Copies of any and all cultural resource records and study reports that may have been provided by the Information Center as part of the records search response; • Whether the records search indicates a low, moderate, or high probability that unrecorded cultural resources are located in the APE; and
• If a survey is recommended by the Information Center to determine whether previously unrecorded cultural resources are present.

2. The results of any archaeological inventory survey that was conducted, including:
• Any report that may contain site forms, site significance, and suggested mitigation measures.

All information regarding site locations, Native American human remains, and associated funerary objects should be in a separate confidential addendum, and not be made available for public disclosure in accordance with Government Code section 6254.10.

3. The result of any Sacred Lands File (SLF) check conducted through the Native American Heritage Commission was negative.

4. Any ethnographic studies conducted for any area including all or part of the APE; and

5. Any geotechnical reports regarding all or part of the APE.

Lead agencies should be aware that records maintained by the NAHC and CHRIS are not exhaustive and a negative response to these searches does not preclude the existence of a tribal cultural resource. A tribe may be the only source of information regarding the existence of a tribal cultural resource.

This information will aid tribes in determining whether to request formal consultation. In the event that they do, having the information beforehand will help to facilitate the consultation process.

If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify the NAHC. With your assistance, we can assure that our consultation list remains current.

If you have any questions, please contact me at my email address: [email protected].

Fresno, CA, 93720
Subject: Proposed Central Southeast Specific Plan Project Dear Chairperson Alvarez:

FirstCarbon Solutions (FCS) is preparing a Cultural Resources analysis for the proposed Central Southeast Specific Plan project on behalf of the City of Fresno. As part of the environmental review process, we are searching for records pertaining to cultural resources in the area surrounding the project site described below. Attached is a Records Search map with a 0.5-mile buffer around the site for your reference.

The Central Southeast Specific Plan will focus on low income neighborhoods. This area consists of approximately 2,200 acres. Residential, commercial, and office development in the community has been hampered by the City’s emphasis on new growth in the metropolitan area, by incomplete public facilities, and by negative community perceptions.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Please note that this letter is a request for information pertaining to a cultural resources assessment and is not notification of a project under Senate Bill (SB) 18, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Please feel free to contact me at 530.219.1432 or via email at [email protected] and thank you for your valuable assistance.

Residential, commercial, and office development in the community has been hampered by the City’s emphasis on new growth in the metropolitan area, by incomplete public facilities, and by negative community perceptions.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Attached is a Records Search map with a 0.5-mile buffer around the site for your reference.

The Central Southeast Specific Plan will focus on low income neighborhoods. This area consists of approximately 2,200 acres. Residential, commercial, and office development in the community has been hampered by the City’s emphasis on new growth in the metropolitan area, by incomplete public facilities, and by negative community perceptions.

The purpose of the plan is to clearly identify and address those issues and concerns adversely affecting the community’s growth and vitality, to anticipate the need for and impacts of new public facilities, and to stimulate the development of well-balanced neighborhoods.

As part of the cultural resources assessment, FCS conducted a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and California Historical Resource Information System (CHRIS). The results of the SLF records search was negative. We are still waiting on results from the CHRIS search. The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) suggested you might be able to provide further information. If you have any additional information regarding potential historic or cultural resources in proximity or relation to the proposed project area, we would greatly appreciate your input.

Please note that this letter is a request for information pertaining to a cultural resources assessment and is not notification of a project under Senate Bill (SB) 18, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Please feel free to contact me at 530.219.1432 or via email at [email protected] and thank you for your valuable assistance.

City of Fresno Santa Barbara Office
File: 2064158700 Date: February 15, 2022
Reference: Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study The following Final Traffic Study provides an overview of potential traffic impacts generated by the Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) Land Use Plan. The study compares the growth projections developed by Raimi + Associates (December 19, 2019) for the Specific Plan Area to land use assumptions applied in the City of Fresno General Plan Recirculated Public Review Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) (March 2021) and evaluates the traffic volume changes for each Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) in the Specific Plan Area under General Plan (2035) conditions. A Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis is provided in a separate document. Comments provided by City staff on the Draft Traffic Study (August 23, 2021) are also incorporated in this Final Traffic Study.

EXISTING CONDITIONS
The Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) encompasses approximately 14 city blocks in the southeast portion of the City of Fresno. The Specific Plan is bordered by Belmont Avenue to the north, East Avenue to the west, Church Avenue to the south, and Peach Avenue to the east.

The Plan Area is served by a network of arterials, collectors and local streets. Based on information contained in the General Plan PEIR Appendix J – Traffic Impact Analysis (March 2021), the existing 2035 AM and PM peak hour roadway analysis includes 282 roadways located throughout the City of Fresno, of which 18 roadway segments are located in or directly adjacent to the Specific Plan Area. These 18 roadway segments would potentially be affected by peak hour volume changes resulting from the CSESP Land Use Plan and are evaluated in this traffic and circulation study. These segments are listed in Table 1 along with the existing level of service (LOS) designation. A table showing the AM and PM peak hour volumes is attached for reference.

The City has four Traffic Impact Zones (TIZ I through IV) with different LOS thresholds. In addition, TIZ U denotes unincorporated Fresno County. The Specific Plan roadway segments are located in all five zones, for which the peak hour LOS standards are LOS D through F. As shown in Table 1, all roadway segments included in this analysis currently operate at acceptable service levels based on the level of service data contained in the General Plan PEIR and the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

Reference: Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study

The General Plan (2035) conditions analysis includes implementation of the Circulation Element configuration of the roadway network to reflect the City’s Mobility goals. Based on the General Plan Circulation Element, the following modifications are proposed to be implemented to the roadway segments in the CSESP Plan Area:
 Jensen Avenue will be widened to a six-lane Super Arterial between Orange Avenue and Highland Avenue.
 Church Avenue will be widened to a four-lane Collector from Cedar Avenue to Maple Avenue.  Belmont Avenue will be converted from a four-lane Arterial to a two-lane Collector from First Street to Cedar Street.

Table 2 summarizes the General Plan 2035 roadway segment peak hour volumes and levels of service for the 18 roadway segments the CSESP Plan Area. A table showing the 2035 AM and PM peak hour volumes is attached for reference. Table 2 indicates that the roadway segments included in this study are forecast to operate at acceptable service levels under General Plan 2035 conditions based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

CSESP Land Use Assumptions
To determine the traffic volume changes within the Specific Plan resulting from the CSESP Land Use Plan and assumptions, a comparison is provided between the land use assumptions used in the 2014 City of Fresno General Plan and Development Code Update Master Environmental Impact Report (MEIR) with the currently proposed CSESP Land Use Plan. The 2021 General Plan PEIR does not provide specific information regarding housing unit and/or non-residential square foot increases per TAZ for the Year 2035. The socioeconomic data used in the Fresno COG traffic model for the PEIR is derived from housing unit and employment (job) increase projections contained in the previous 2014 General Plan MEIR. Thus, the residential and non-residential data for the Specific Plan contained in the 2014 MEIR are consistent with the data used for the 2021 PEIR.

The CSESP Land Use Plan is based on the growth projections and capacity analysis completed by Raimi + Associates for the Specific Plan Area with a 2035 horizon. The growth projections assume the maximum amount of residential and non-residential development that could occur on each vacant or underutilized parcels. A growth adjustment scenario was provided that assumes 60 percent of the maximum residential growth and 40 percent of the maximum non-residential growth could occur by the 2035 horizon. To provide a traffic comparison that is consistent with the 2021 PEIR, the analysis applies the reasonable growth projection that could occur by 2035.

The General Plan land use growth data in the 2014 MEIR is provided in housing units and employment (jobs).

Jobs were converted into non-residential square feet (SF) in order to develop trip generation estimates, because trip generation rates per SF are more stable than rates per employee (jobs) and are the industry standard. To generate trip estimates for the non-residential land uses included in the MEIR, Stantec converted the job increase per TAZ to square footage based on land use assumptions (Office, Retail, Light Industrial etc.) and the relationship between ITE rate for employees and ITE rate for KSF for each land use.

For example, ITE Land Use #710 - General Office Building has a trip generation rate of 9.74 Average Daily Trips (ADT) per KSF and a rate of 3.28 ADT per employee. Based on this relationship, there are 3 employees per 1,000 SF (9.74 / 3.28). Thus, if the 2014 MEIR projected a growth of 12 jobs under the land use Office, the resulting building square footage would be 4,000 SF.

Table 3 provides an overview of the proposed land use changes per Specific Plan TAZ. As shown, the proposed CSESP Land Use Plan would result in residential and non-residential development slightly below the growth projected in the General Plan buildout (278 fewer housing units and 128,858 fewer square feet (SF) of nonresidential building space).

1 A pass-by rate of 34% (ITE Trip Generation Manual) is applied to commercial land uses to account for vehicles already on the adjacent roadway system that visit the site.

The trip generation data contained in Table 4 indicates that compared to the General Plan, the proposed CSESP land use changes would result in an overall reduction of traffic in the Specific Plan area of 8,102 average daily trips (ADT), a reduction of 351 AM peak hour trips and a reduction of 1,180 PM peak hour trips compared to GP 2035 conditions. Significant peak hour trip reductions are expected in four TAZ’s (1433, 1453, 1469 and February 15, 2022
Drew Wilson

Reference: Central Southeast Area Specific Plan – Final Traffic Study

1478), while any potential trip increase per TAZ is moderate with a maximum of 134 peak hour trips in TAZ 1472.

Roadway Segment Impact Assessment
The roadway segment analysis contained in the PEIR focusses on 282 roadways located throughout the City of Fresno, of which 18 roadway segments are located in or directly adjacent to the Specific Plan Area. The existing conditions analysis indicates that the 18 roadway segments that could be affected by Specific Plan land use changes currently operate at acceptable service levels based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards. The PEIR also indicates that all 18 roadway segments are forecast to operate at acceptable service levels under General Plan 2035 with Circulation Element conditions based on the City’s TIZ LOS standards.

The Specific Plan area trip generation estimates outlined in this study found that the CSESP Land Use Plan would result in an overall reduction of traffic in the Specific Plan area of 8,102 ADT, a reduction of 351 AM peak hour trips and a reduction of 1,180 PM peak hour trips compared to GP 2035 conditions. With respect to roadway segment operations, the following finding are made:
 4 TAZ’s could expect significant peak hour trip reductions (more than 260 PHT), which would result in increased levels of service on the roadway segments directly adjacent to each TAZ.

 10 TAZ’S could expect slight peak hour trip reductions or increase (-89 PHT to 65 PHT), which would not result in noticeable traffic volume change once distributed onto the study-area roadway network.  4 TAZ’s could expect moderate peak hour trip increases (more than 100 PHT to 150 PHT), which would result in slight increases in traffic volume on the roadway segments directly adjacent to each TAZ.

These slight increases would not have the potential to change the 2035 roadway segment level of service levels contained in the PEIR.

Table 2 indicated that 17 of the 18 roadway segments included in this study are expected to operate at LOS AC under 2035 GP with Circulation Element conditions, well within each roadway’s minimum level of service standard. One segment – Belmont Avenue between First Street and Cedar Avenue - will be reduced from 4 lanes to 2 lanes and is expected to operate in the LOS F range per the General Plan PEIR (see Table 2). Given that Belmont Ave is on the northern boundary of the Specific Plan area and the nearest TAZ (1430) would see a reduction in trips assuming the CSESP Land Use Plan, no changes to the roadway segment’s level of service would occur.

Conclusions
The level of service data and trip generation data provided in this study indicates that the CSESP Land Use Plan would not result in any changes to the roadway segment peak hour levels of service contained in City of Fresno General Plan Recirculated Public Review Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) (March 2021).

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 16, 2022
TO: Sophia Pagoulatos and Drew Wilson, City of Fresno
FROM: Ambarish Mukherjee, Principal, LSA
SUBJECT: Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan ‐ Vehicle Miles Traveled Analysis LSA has prepared this memorandum documenting the methodology and findings of a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis for the Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan (CSESP) (project/specific plan) in the City of Fresno (City). Based on our understanding of the project, modifications are currently being proposed for some of the CSESP land uses. As such, these updates within CSESP would require a General Plan Amendment (GPA). Since the project is a specific plan, it qualifies as a land use plan. Therefore, the project’s VMT analysis needs to be prepared using the criteria set forth in the City’s CEQA Guidelines for VMT Thresholds (VMT Guidelines) adopted June 25, 2020 for land use plans. The City’s VMT guidelines require that for land use plans, the project’s VMT per capita and VMT per employee under forecast/cumulative scenario be compared to the corresponding base year VMT per capita/employee to determine whether the project would have a significant VMT impact.  Additionally, this memorandum also provides VMT per capita and VMT per employee under the no project cumulative scenario (no changes to the General Plan) for uses within the CSESP area.

Although analysis of this scenario is not required per the City’s guidelines, the findings from this analysis will help develop a narrative regarding whether the proposed project would be beneficial in reducing VMT per capita and VMT per employee under cumulative conditions. The Fresno Council of Governments (Fresno COG) Activity Based Model (ABM) has been used to determine VMT impact of the proposed changes.

INTRODUCTION
On December 28, 2018, the California Office of Administrative Law cleared the revised California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for use. Among the changes to the guidelines was removal of vehicle delay and level of service from consideration under CEQA. With the adopted guidelines, transportation impacts are to be evaluated based on a project’s/plan’s effect on VMT.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Fresno CSESP is a long‐term, comprehensive planning document which provides the basis for implementation of the City’s General Plan over the 2,200‐acre Plan Area. The CSESP provides policies relating to land use and urban design, transportation, public spaces, and economic development, as well as a range of specific projects that would address these policies in areas considered deficient in their existing condition. The CSESP Public Draft, completed in April 2021, defines the Plan Area, and shows proposed land use changes as shown in Figure 1. 8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx) Figure 1: CSESP Plan Area and Proposed Land Use Changes 8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx)

METHODOLOGY
These updates within CSESP would require a GPA. Since the project is a specific plan, it qualifies as a land use plan. Therefore, the project’s VMT analysis needs to be prepared using the criteria set forth in the City’s VMT Guidelines, 2020, for land use plans.

The VMT Guidelines also provide multiple screening criteria for land use projects. However, given the project is a specific plan with an amendment and would require a GPA, the screening criteria are not applicable and hence a complete VMT analysis was conducted.

The City’s VMT guidelines require that for land use plans, the project’s VMT per capita and VMT per employee under forecast/cumulative scenario be compared to the corresponding base year VMT per capita/employee to determine whether the project would have a significant VMT impact.

The Fresno Council of Governments (Fresno COG) Activity Based Model (ABM) has been used to determine VMT impact of the proposed changes. Total CSESP area comprises of 19 ABM/model Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) – 1096, 1115, 1117, 1135, 1136, 1137, 1138, 1139, 1140, 1153, 1154, 1155, 1156, 1157, 1166, 1167, 1168, 1169 and 1170 as shown in Figure 2.

The current amendment is proposing changes in approximately 14 different areas within the specific plan (identified in Figure 1). The 14 different areas fall within 11 ABM TAZs. The proposed land uses within these 14 areas are shown in Figure 3. The city provided the existing and proposed CSESP land uses for these amended areas/parcels.

PROJECT TRAFFIC ANALYSIS ZONES UPDATE
LSA converted the amended parcel land uses into model socioeconomic categories using generic land use to socioeconomic conversion factors. The conversion factors are same as the conversion factors used during the City’s latest General Plan update. Table 1 shows the conversion factors used to convert the CSESP amended land uses into model socioeconomic categories.

The Fresno COG ABM includes ability to split zones/add new zones. As indicated before, the 14 different areas with amendments fall within 11 ABM TAZs. To isolate the effect of the amendments, 10 new TAZs were created for the 11 different areas. Amendments in existing TAZs 1153 and 1154 were combined into one new TAZ, given parcels in both areas contain same land use type and are adjacent to one another.

Given that the proposed project is an amendment to the 2035 General Plan, the amended land uses cannot be directly added to the model but the 2035 growth in the Fresno COG model dataset need to be adjusted appropriately before adding the amendments.

Upon conversion of the amendment land uses to socioeconomic data (SED), the General Plan SED from Fresno COG 2035 was adjusted appropriately and SED for the amendment was added into the new model TAZs. Comparison of SED between CSESP amendments and Fresno COG growth (2035 – 2019) was conducted at a TAZ level.

Table 3 illustrates the existing 2019, 2035 ABM, CSESP amendment SEDs, and the corresponding adjusted SED for the parent/original TAZs. The adjusted SED for the parent/original TAZs was arrived by the following methodology:
 For each TAZ, if proposed CSESP SED is higher than the model growth, then entire growth for the TAZ was removed from Fresno COG 2035 model.
8/16/22 (P:\CFO2203_CSESP\Fresno_CSESP_VMT Analysis_Memorandum_08‐16‐2022.docx)  If model growth is higher than CSESP SED then, the model growth was adjusted to the difference between model growth and CSESP SED (model growth minus CSESP amendment data).

The corresponding SED for the proposed CSESP was added to the new TAZs as a conservative approach. Same methodology was followed for both households and total employment. The resulting 2035 SED for the parent TAZs is illustrated under the “Adjusted 2035 ABM” columns of Table 3. The 2035 SED for the project TAZs is illustrated in previously referenced Table 2.

MODEL RUNS AND PROJECT VMT ESTIMATION
A horizon year (2035) model run was conducted using the adjusted socioeconomic data for the original zones (Table 3) and amended socioeconomic data for the new TAZs (Table 2). No roadway or transit network modifications were conducted for the model run with the CSESP amendments.

The outputs from this updated model run were used to calculate the VMT per capita and VMT per employee for the proposed amendments.

As indicated before, for land use plans, the City’s guidelines recommend use of VMT per capita to evaluate residential land uses and VMT per employee to evaluate non‐residential land uses. Since the project contains both residential and non‐residential uses, LSA estimated VMT per capita for the amended parcel’s residential land uses and VMT per employee for the non‐residential land uses.

VMT metrics for Fresno COG ABM include two components, internal‐internal (II) and internal‐ external/external‐internal (IXXI) VMT. Both II VMT and IX/XI VMT were included in the estimation of overall project VMT per capita and VMT per employee.

PROJECT VMT ANALYSIS
Table 4 shows the VMT metrics for the amended parcels only. As can be seen from Table 4, the proposed amendments/project does not constitute a significant VMT impact.

As can be seen from Tables 5 and 6, (both VMT per capita and VMT per employee) for the entire CSESP area with proposed amendments (project) as the CSESP area without proposed amendments (no project) scenarios would not have a significant VMT impact.

Dear Drew,
Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration General Plan Amendment and Rezone P23-02413 for the
Central Southeast Area Specific Plan
Drainage Areas “A”, “BF”, “GG”, “II2”, “PP”, “Y”, “Z”
The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD) has adopted storm drainage Master Plan systems for the areas located within the Central Southeast Specific Plan (Plan Area).

These Master Plan systems are based on the previously adopted General and Specific Plan land uses.

For areas that have existing drainage facilities and propose changes to land uses that generate more runoff than originally planned, some type of mitigation to accommodate the increased flow such as parallel pipes and/or on-site retention may be required. FMFCD has identified properties within the Plan Area that may require some form of mitigation (see attached Page 5, Exhibit 5 of the Plan Area).

The properties may either make improvements to the existing pipeline system to provide additional capacity or may use some type of permanent peak reducing facility in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the existing system. Implementation of the mitigation measures may be deferred until the time of development. Should the properties choose to construct a permanent peak reducing facility, this system would be required to reduce runoff from a ten-year storm produced by the increased land use and release a two-year discharge which would be produced by FMFCD’s existing system design. The developer will be required to submit improvement plans to the District for review and approval showing the proposed method of mitigation prior to implementation.

k:\letters\rezone letters\fresno\2023\23-02413(central southeast gpa-rezone)(dw).docx FMFCD offers the following comments specific to the review of the Plan Area (the individual pages are included and the section or sentence has been highlighted for your reference):

1. Page 120, (iii): Revise first paragraph sentence [Therefore, runoff from the proposed project has already been anticipated by the General Plan and would not exceed the capacity of the storm drainage system.] to [Should runoff from the proposed project not previously anticipated by the General Plan exceed the capacity of the storm drainage system some form of mitigation will be required.]

2. Page 120, (iii): Revise second paragraph to remove “would” and “Maple” to “includes future” and “Chestnut”.

Add sentence: “A twenty-five foot (25’) wide storm drain easement shall be dedicated by APN’s 480-080-03 and 05 (along California Avenue west of Chestnut Avenue to FMFCD Basin) at such time development occurs for a future 36” storm drain pipeline.

No encroachments into the easement will be permitted including, but not limited to, foundations, roof overhangs, swimming pools, and trees.”

3. Page 168, Stormwater: Revise paragraph to remove “Maple” and include “Chestnut” and “future”.

Add sentence: “A twenty-five foot (25’) wide storm drain easement shall be dedicated by APN’s 480-080-03 and 05 (along California Avenue west of Chestnut Avenue to FMFCD Basin) at such time development occurs for a future 36” storm drain pipeline. No encroachments into the easement will be permitted including, but not limited to, foundations, roof overhangs, swimming pools, and trees.” The City of Fresno, FMFCD, the County of Fresno, the City of Clovis, and the California State University, Fresno are currently covered as Co-Permittees for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) discharges through National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Order No. R5-2016-0040 and NPDES Permit No. CAS0085324 (Storm Water Permit) effective May 17, 2018. The previous Storm Water Permit adopted on May 31, 2013 required the adoption of Stormwater Quality Management Program (SWQMP) that describes the Storm Water Permit implementation actions and Co-Permittee responsibilities. That SWQMP was approved by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board on April 17, 2015 and is effective until adoption of a new SWQMP, which is anticipated within the next two years.

k:\letters\rezone letters\fresno\2023\23-02413(central southeast gpa-rezone)(dw).docx The Storm Water Permit requires that Co-Permittees update their CEQA process to incorporate procedures for considering potential stormwater quality impacts when preparing and reviewing CEQA documents. This requirement is found on Provision D.14 of the 2013 Storm Water Permit and in Section 7: Planning and Land Development Program – PLD 3 – Update CEQA Process.

The District has created a guidance document that will meet this Storm Water Permit requirement entitled Guidance for Addressing Stormwater Quality for CEQA Review, which has been attached.

In an effort to streamline future CEQA processing and maintain compliance with the Storm Water Permit, FMFCD recommends that all future CEQA review within the City of Fresno utilize the attached guidance document Exhibit “A”.

Discussion of these regulatory processes is included in the previous section’s discussion of erosion and siltation. Compliance with these required regulations would reduce the project construction impacts on drainage patterns and flooding on and off the construction site to less than significant levels.

Operationally, future development under the proposed project has the potential to increase the amount of paved, impervious surfaces within the Specific Plan Area. However, development proposed in the Specific Plan is less than what was contemplated by the General Plan and is therefore consistent with the stormwater rates and volumes anticipated in the General Plan.

Objective NS-3 and Policies NS-3-a, NS-3-b, NS-3-e, NS-3-h, NS-3-i of the approved General Plan were designed to reduce flooding impacts. Implementation of the grading plan check process, and compliance with General Plan policies would ensure that surface runoff and long-term project flooding impacts associated with alteration of grading patterns are less than significant. (iii) create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff; or
Less than significant impact. Continued implementation of the General Plan is projected to increase the impervious surface area within the City and its SOI. The proposed project would redevelop a number of vacant parcels to other uses. While the proposed project has the potential to increase impervious surface and as such, increase the amount of stormwater runoff, development consistent with the proposed project would reduce the total amount of development in the Specific Plan Area compared to what was contemplated by the General Plan. Therefore, runoff from the proposed project has already been anticipated by the General Plan and would not exceed the capacity of the storm drainage system.

Additionally, the proposed project would include storm drain improvements in California Avenue between Cedar and Maple Avenues and the detention basin to the south of the Specific Plan Area.

Participation in the NPDES Permit process would reduce impacts to surface waters to acceptable levels, and long-term project impacts to surface or groundwater quality would not exceed acceptable levels. Continued implementation of the approved General Plan policies NS-3-a, NS-3-b, NS-3-e, NS-3-h, NS-3-I and POSS-6-b, along with preparation, implementation, and participation in the NPDES Permit process would reduce project-specific impacts on water quality associated with the significant increase in stormwater runoff. Additionally, Chapter 6, Article 7, Urban Storm Water Quality Management and Discharge Control, of the Fresno Municipal Code establishes provisions regarding stormwater discharges to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of citizens and protect the water quality of watercourses and water bodies by reducing pollutants in urban stormwater discharges to the maximum extent practicable and by effectively prohibiting non- Environmental Checklist and City of Fresno–Fresno Central Southeast Area Specific Plan Environmental Evaluation Subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration 168 FirstCarbon Solutions Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/5000/50000002/SMND/50000002 Fresno Central Southeast Area SP Subsequent MND (1).docx Wastewater
As discussed above, the City’s WMD provides wastewater collection and treatment services to the City, including the Specific Plan Area. The WMD manages and maintains approximately 1,600 miles of gravity sewer lines up to 84-inches in diameter, 15 active lift stations, and associated force mains.

Nearly all of the wastewater generated within the sewer service area is conveyed to the City’s RWRF for treatment. The City’s 2015 Wastewater Collection System Master Plan (CSMP) Update identified 2015 wastewater flows and projected wastewater flows at General Plan buildout. In general, wastewater consists of Base Wastewater Flow (BWF) and Wet Weather Flow (WWF). BWF is flow generated by routine water usage in the residential, commercial, business and industrial sectors of the collection system. WWF includes stormwater inflow, trench infiltration, and wet weather ground water infiltration. Peak Wet Weather Flow (PWWF) is the highest observed hourly flow that occurs following the design storm event. The City’s BWF is projected to roughly double from 64.1 million gallons per day (mgd) to 129.9 mgd by buildout, whereas the PWWF is projected to increase from 123.9 mgd to about 202.4 mgd by buildout (an increase of approximately 63 percent). Therefore, the City’s PWWF to BWF peaking factor is projected to decrease from roughly 1.93 to 1.56, which is relatively low for sanitary sewer collection systems.93 The CSMP Update concluded that, in general, the City’s existing collection system has sufficient capacity to convey current PWWFs without exceeding the established flow depth criterion. However, there are a few areas where capacity restrictions lead to flow depths that exceed allowable levels.

The 2015 CSMP Update identified improvements to address current and future deficiencies in the sewer collection system. The majority of improvements are driven by future development, which consist of new sewers that serve future growth or improvements to existing facilities that are needed to serve future growth. When fully implemented, the capital projects will allow the conveyance of PWWFs to the RWRF during buildout conditions The primary impact identified within the Plan Area was the Orange Avenue trunk sewer main. The needed capacity improvements consist of replacing approximately 6,050 feet of 36-inch diameter pipeline with a new 42-inch diameter sewer on segments of 8th Street, Woodward Avenue, and Orange Avenue in the Plan Area. No major sewer pipeline structural deficiencies were identified within the Specific Plan Area.

The approved General Plan includes several policies to address wastewater generation and reduction of wastewater flows including PU-7-a, PU-7-b and PU-7-f.
