TRANSPORATION ASSESSMENT POLICIES AND PROCEEDURES
(TAPP) WORKSHEET
PROJECT NUMBER PRJ2023-00003
PROJECT NAME 76 Gas Station @ Provecho Market
PROJECT LOCATION 312 N Euclid
APN(s) 031-221-21
PROJECT PLANNER Edgardo Caldera
PROPOSED LAND USES Gas Station with 8 Vehicle Fueling Positions
EXISTING LAND USES
TO BE REMOVED None. Station to be built in parking lot of the Market
VMT SCREENING
܆Project is exempt from
CEQA; therefore, a VMT
Analysis is not required.
܈Project passes Primary
and Secondary Screening;
therefore, a VMT Analysis
is not required.
܆Project fails screening;
therefore, a VMT Analysis
is required.
Primary Screening
The Proposed Project:
܈Located in a Transit Priority Area
܆Located in a Low VMT-generating area
܈Project type is presumed to have a less than significant impact ܆Project generates less than 836 VMT
If any of the above boxes are checked, the project passes Primary Screening and the Project Planner completes applicable Secondary Screening.
Secondary Screening – Transit Priority Area
The Proposed Project:
܈Has a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of less than 0.75
܆Is overparked in relation to City Code.
տIs inconsistent with the applicable Sustainable Communities Strategy տReplaces affordable residential units with a smaller number of moderate- or high-income residential units.
If any of the above boxes are checked, the project fails Secondary Screening.
Secondary Screening – Low VMT-generating Area
The Proposed Project:
܆Is inconsistent with the existing land use1 (i.e. if the project is proposing single-family housing, there should be existing single-family housing of approximately the same density); or
տHas a unique attribute that would otherwise be misrepresented utilizing the data from the travel demand model such as including land uses that would alter the existing built environment in such a way as to increase the rate or length of vehicle trips.
If any of the above boxes are checked, the project fails Secondary Screening.
1 Residential and office projects located within a low VMT area may be presumed to have a less than significant impact absent substantial evidence to the contrary. In addition, other employment- related and mixed- use land use projects may qualify for the use of screening if the project can reasonably be expected to generate VMT per service population that is similar to the existing land uses in the low VMT area.
VMT ANALYSIS
܈Preliminary project
analysis reveals no
probable VMT impact,
therefore, no further
study is required.
܆Project may have a
VMT impact and thus a
VMT Analysis is required.
The Proposed Project:
Estimated Daily Trips: 1376 * 31% = 427 (New Trips) Average Trip Length: 7.5
Service Population 91 (Total Trips)
VMT per Service Population: 35.2 (Adjusted)
Total VMT: 3,203 (Adjusted)
Target VMT per Service Population Threshold: 29.6
Percentage above/below VMT Target: 118.9%
City Traffic Engineer’s Finding:
The project proposes constructing a new gas station with eight (8) vehicle fueling positions at an existing market. Gas stations are considered local serving uses as they provide motorists with additional fuel choices closer to their route of travel, poten tially improving the convenience of fueling and an overall reduction in vehicle miles traveled. Gas stations typically do not significantly increase overall trips but serve patrons already driving along a route or within a neighborhood. Additionally, at this location it is anticipated that pat rons of the market will also become patrons of the gas station, thus reducing overall travel. The VMT analysis provided above accounts for these characteristics by adjusting computed total trip values by total new trips. Therefore, based on this review it is reasonable to conclude that the proposed project will have no probable VMT impact and thus no further study is required.
LOS SCREENING
܈Project is not expected
to have an effect on
transportation; therefore,
a LOS Analysis is not
required.
܆Project fails screening
and may have a potential
effect on transportation;
therefore, a LOS Analysis
is required.
The Proposed Project:
Peak Hour Trip Generation: AM: 82
PM: 111
Internal Capture (Market): AM: -12 (15%)
PM: -17 (15%)
Pass By Trip Percentage: AM: -44 (63%)
PM: -54 (57%)
Proposed Project Net Peak Trip Generation: AM: 26 PM: 40
܈AM or PM peak hour trip generation is anticipated to exceed 40 net new vehicle trips.
տThe combination of land use and location necessitates further study.
If any of the above boxes are checked, the project fails LOS Screening.
