proximity to existing Home Depot driveway and signalized intersection of Monterey Avenue at Market Place, as shown in Appendix B.
Within the Section 30 SP area, a project application is currently in place to amend land use. The proposed SP Amendment is a 35-acre planning area that would replace approximately 222 KSF of general retail with up to 400 multi-family dwelling units, as shown in Appendix C. A summary of the approved and proposed land uses for the undeveloped parcels on Section 30 is provided in Table 1.
Notes:
1. KSF = 1,000 square feet, DUs = Dwelling Units
Study Purpose
Street A is proposed on the northern border of this SP Amendment. The SP Amendment applicant has identified difficulties in constructing Street A due to existing site conditions related to grade and the proximity to the loading zone access from Monterey Avenue behind the existing Home Depot. Their alternative proposal would eliminate Street A and rely on Dick Kelly Drive to provide access to Via Vail from Monterey Avenue. In addition, a new signalized intersection and two right- in/right-out driveways would provide additional direct access from the project site to Monterey Avenue (Appendix D). The analysis in this memo reviews roadway capacity of a built-out Section 30 SP, including the SP Amendment land uses, to review if Street A is needed.
Study Area
The following roadway segments provide access to Section 30 and were evaluated to review the build-out of Section 30’s roadway capacity:
1. Key Largo Avenue south of Dinah Shore Drive
2. Oasis Way north of Gerald Ford Drive
3. Via Marta east of Bob Hope Drive
4. Ginger Rogers Road east of Bob Hope Drive
5. Victory Lane east of Bob Hope Drive

Data Collection
Fehr & Peers collected 24-hour roadway segment count data at the above study locations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Coachella Valley, traffic counts are known to be highest in the months of January through April. Fehr & Peers collected counts in October of 2021. These counts were compared to historical counts from January 2019 and Fehr & Peers applied adjustments to reflect the peak season. Fehr & Peers measured approximately a 10-15% reduction in traffic from January 2019, so a 20% growth factor was applied to the traffic counts to conservatively represent traffic conditions in Winter 2022. To validate the accuracy of the October 2021 traffic count forecasts, all study locations will be recounted in January 2022.
Trip Generation
Fehr & Peers estimated the build-out of the Section 30 SP by forecasting daily trips associated with the build-out of all vacant parcels within the Section 30 SP. These forecasts were based on the maximum allowable zoning on each parcel.
Trip Generation Rates
Trip generation rates from Trip Generation, 11th Edition (Institute of Transportation Engineers [ITE], 2021) were used to estimate the number of net new trips associated with the build-out of the SP.
Trip generation rates and trip generation estimates are presented in Table 2.
Multi-Family Housing (Low-Rise containing one to three floors, Not Close to Transit) (ITE Code 220) was chosen to represent the housing units on the SP Amendment site. Single-Family Detached Housing (ITE Code 210) was chosen to represent the Very Low Density Residential and Medium Density Residential housing units. Multi-Family Housing (Med-Rise containing four to ten floors, Not Close to Transit) (ITE Code 221) was chosen to represent the High-Density Residential housing units.
There are three shopping plazas located in Section 30 that will use the ITE trip generation rates for Shopping Plaza (40-150k - No Supermarket) (ITE Code 821) to represent the Commercial land use.
When disaggregated, the individual shopping plazas have a square footage between 40-150k. The Shopping Center (>150k) (ITE Code 820) was chosen to represent the SP Amendment Commercial land use. General Office Building (ITE Code 710) was chosen to represent the office use. Public Park (ITE Code 411) was chosen to represent the Open Space/Public Park land use.
Please note that no pass-by reductions were applied to the daily forecasts for this assessment. 8-1409

Trip Generation Estimates
As presented in Table 1, the build-out of the vacant parcels in the Section 30 SP area is expected to generate approximately 38,030 daily trips, including the trips from SP Amendment.
Trip Distribution
Project trip distribution refers to the directions of approach and departure that vehicles would use to travel to and from the project site. Surrounding land uses, existing roadway network characteristics, existing traffic counts, local knowledge of the study area, and professional judgement were used to develop the trip distribution. Each vacant area of land within Section 30 was assigned a zone and classified under a land use category to perform trip distribution and trip assignment. The trip distribution zones are shown in Appendix E. The estimated project trips were proportionally distributed to the path(s) of each zone and assigned a percentage. Please note that some zones provide direct access to the surrounding arterials so 100% of traffic was not assumed to use Section 30 access roadways.
The Section 30 SP trip generation estimates were then applied to the trip distribution to estimate the Project trip assignment. A detailed breakdown of the Section 30 trip assignment can be found in the Appendices F and G.

Analysis Methodology
Roadway segment operations were evaluated using the roadway capacities provided in City of Rancho Mirage General Plan Update (June 2017) shown in Table 3. The roadway segments that access Section 30 are most similar in nature with the 2-lane Collector roadway classification the General Plan.

Network Capacity Assessment Results
The capacity assessment reviewed the need for Street A. The assessment illustrates that the Project can be constructed without this roadway and that the Section 30 circulation network will have available capacity and operate at acceptable conditions. Table 4 shows the capacity of the roadway segments, the forecasted traffic of each roadway segment, and the Level of Service (LOS) of each roadway segment. Table 4 includes the roadway analysis with Street A and without the proposed roadway. With the removal of Street A, the daily trips would mostly be redistributed to Dick Kelly Drive, except for commercial trips at the SP Amendment site that would redistribute to driveways and the new signalized intersection on Monterey Avenue. The roadway segment LOS analysis determined that Section 30 will not result in deficient operations on any roadway within Section 30.
Please note that since internal Section 30 roadways do not provide regional access, no additional growth factors were applied to the access roadway segment ADT and this analysis is assumed to represent cumulative buildout conditions.

Conclusions
The assessment concludes that there will be enough roadway capacity to provide access to a built- out Section 30 SP with or without Street A. Street A is forecast to carry less than 4,000 daily trips, which can be absorbed by Dick Kelly Drive, and thus is not a critical piece of infrastructure for Section 30 SP.
