safety.

Policy PS-3.10: Changing Conditions. Coordinate with the RCDCD to consider the need to expand the capacity of flood control facilities based on changing flood conditions associated with climate change and extreme weather.

Policy PS-3.11: Mitigation. Require that all new development and redevelopment in areas susceptible to flooding incorporate mitigation measures designed to reduce flood hazards.

Policy PS-3.12: Adequate Infrastructure. Maintain and regularly assess the status of local storm drainage infrastructure to ensure that the system is functioning property.

Action PS-3i: Continue to implement the Flood Plain Management program, which establishes rules and regulations for flood plain management. Continue to apply the rules and regulations to development in areas of special flood hazards as determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and as illustrated on the most recent Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM).

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ELEMENT
Goal RM-1: Natural Resources. A community that conserves and protects its natural resources.

Policy RM-1.5: Hillside Development. Require the orderly development of hillside areas through compliance with the City’s Hillside Development Ordinance.

Action RM-1c: Work closely with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) during the discretionary project permitting and CEQA review of any project that may result in the alteration of a stream bed, involve the removal of vegetation in wetland and riparian habitats, disturb Waters of the United States or otherwise impact sensitive biological resources.

Action RM-1e: For Hillside Development Projects, implement the City's Hillside Development Standards to retain the significant hillsides and ridgelines on San Jacinto’s eastern and western borders as Open Space, allowing areas of non-intensive development on the more gently sloped areas at the base of the eastern and western hillsides.

Action RM-1f: During the development review process, ensure proper geotechnical and soil management techniques are implemented. To enforce this, the City Engineer or Director may request the completion of a survey of soil and geologic conditions by a State licensed Engineering Geologist and Civil Engineer, where appropriate. When potential geologic impacts are identified, require project applicants to mitigate the impacts per the recommendations contained within the survey.

Action RM-1g: Where feasible, incorporate open space and passive recreational uses into areas identified to have significant hazards related to flooding, geologic conditions, and seismic events.

Goal RM-2: Water Resources. A community that protects and conserves limited water resources.

Policy RM-2.4: Natural Conditions. Encourage development that avoids impacts to watershed areas, wetlands, natural drainage channels, riparian areas, and creeks, retaining these resources in their natural condition if feasible.

Policy RM-2.5: Stormwater. Work cooperatively with local water agencies to effectively and efficiently manage stormwater runoff as part of the City’s multipronged water conservation strategy.

Action RM-2a: To reduce soil erosion and pollutants in urban runoff, require new development and redevelopment projects control stormwater runoff through implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent any deterioration of water quality that would impair subsequent or competing uses of the water. Existing development shall control stormwater runoff so as to prevent any deterioration of water quality that would impair subsequent or competing uses of the water. As specific development projects are implemented, project proponents will be required to consult with relevant agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), and the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG). Also, ensure that projects of one acre or more complete a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) pursuant to California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Santa Ana Region – Order No. 00-65 and the City’s MS4 permit (order no. R8- 2002-0011 (NPDES No. CAS 618033).

SECTION III

IMPACTS THAT ARE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION

INCORPORATED
There are no impacts that require mitigation above and beyond implementation of the policies and actions included in the General Plan.

SECTION IV

IMPACTS THAN CANNOT BE FULLY MITIGATED TO A LESS THAN

SIGNIFICANT LEVEL
The City Council hereby finds that, despite the incorporation of General Plan goals, policies, and actions identified in the EIR and in these Findings, the following environmental impacts cannot be fully mitigated to a less than significant level and a Statement of Overriding Considerations is therefore included herein:

A. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES

1. Farmland Conversion
Threshold: Would the project convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact AG-1, pages 5.2-7 through

5.2-9)
Explanation: There are approximately 3,309 acres of Important Farmlands located within the Study Area, including approximately 413 acres of Prime Farmland, 1,758 acres of Statewide Importance, and 1,138 acres of Unique Farmland.

However, not all land designated as Important Farmlands (Prime, Statewide Importance, and Unique) are currently being utilized for agricultural uses.

Some of the agricultural lands in use or identified as Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland and Farmland of Statewide Importance by the FMMP are within adopted Specific Plan areas (The Villages of San Jacinto, The Trails, and The Esplanade). These Specific Plan areas have been identified for development and the conversion of farmlands to non-agricultural use were previously contemplated and analyzed as part of the environmental review for each Specific Plan area. Implementation of the proposed General Plan Update would not result in new or increased impacts to Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland and Farmland of Statewide Importance within the Villages of San Jacinto, The Trails or The Esplanade Specific Plan areas.

Future development associated with the implementation of the General Plan Update and changes in the economy would likely result in the conversion of many of these areas for urban uses. Because there are no exclusive

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1079 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 201 of 266 ends

agricultural land use designations included as part of the General Plan Update, future development could convert existing agricultural resources and Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, and Farmland of Statewide Importance to non-agricultural uses. It is assumed that as development occurs, the agricultural viability of the Important Farmlands within the Study Area would be reduced. However, it is anticipated that some agricultural uses would continue to operate during the 20-year life of the General Plan and the General Plan Update Land Use Element includes policies and actions to support continued agricultural activities. For example, Policy LU-2.4 which allows and supports for the continuation of agricultural operations on lands within the City limits that are designated for development uses. Action LU-2e gives priority to redevelopment and infill projects that reduce development pressure on agricultural lands.

Action LU-2f directs the City to work with property owners and agricultural operations interested in retaining agricultural lands.

Adoption of the proposed General Plan Update would not lead to the direct conversion of designated Important Farmland, but rather, would continue the existing land use pattern in San Jacinto that calls for ongoing infill development and urbanization within the City. However, since the General Plan Update does not require the preservation of designated farmland, implementation of the General Plan Update could result in the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses. Any additional mitigation measures, such as the preservation of designated farmland, are not feasible and conflict with the other objectives of the General Plan Update, specifically to “proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner” and “attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents”, and would potentially discourage future development envisioned in the General Plan Update.

Although the General Plan Update includes policies and actions to support continued agricultural use within the Study Area, the potential for the conversion of Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland and Farmland of Statewide Importance as identified by the FMMP to non-agricultural use would be a significant unavoidable impact.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS:

LAND USE ELEMENT
Policy LU-2.4: Agricultural Uses Allow and support the continuation of agricultural operations on lands within the City limits that are designated for development uses, until such time as new development is proposed for the land.

Action LU-2e: Give priority to redevelopment and infill projects that reduce development pressure on agricultural lands and other sensitive resources.

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1080 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 202 of 266 ends

Action LU-2f: Work with property owners and agricultural operations interested in retaining agricultural land to identify feasible ways to maintain the land in agricultural production. Apply agricultural conservation easements to land desired by the City and the property owner to remain as agricultural land.

2. Williamson Act Lands
Threshold: Would the project conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact AG-2, pages 5.2-9 through

5.2-10)
Explanation: Although the General Plan Update does not include any zone changes at this time, a future zoning update is anticipated to bring zoning into compliance with the General Plan Update. However, since the City does not have any zoning districts exclusive to agriculture uses, the General Plan Update, and subsequent zoning code update, would not conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use.

Future development projects resulting from implementation of the General Plan Update could potentially conflict with parcels assessed as agriculturally preserved. 18 parcels totaling 514 acres located within the western portion of the Study Area, and within a pocket area towards the northern perimeter of the City limits, are currently assessed by the Riverside County Assessor as agriculturally preserved. The General Plan Update land use designations for these parcels allow for non-agricultural uses including mixed-use and residential. Additionally, lands within the surrounding area are identified for urban development. Because there are no exclusive agricultural land use designations included as part of the General Plan Update, it is possible that future development associated with the implementation of the General Plan Update and changes in the economy would result in the conversion of preserved agricultural properties to urban uses. The General Plan Update Land Use Element includes policies and actions to support continued agricultural activities, including Policy LU-2.4 which allows and supports the continuation of agricultural operations on lands within the City limits that are designated for development uses, until such time as new development is proposed for the land. Action LU-2f directs the City to work with property owners and agricultural operations interested in retaining agricultural land to identify ways to maintain agricultural production; agricultural conservation easements may be applied to land desired to remain as agricultural land.

Adoption of the proposed General Plan Update would not lead to the direct conversion of preserved agricultural lands, but rather, would continue the existing land use pattern in San Jacinto that calls for ongoing infill development and urbanization within the City. Since the General Plan

Page 203 of 266 ends

Update does not require the preservation of agricultural land, implementation of the General Plan Update could result in the conversion of agriculturally-utilized properties to non-agricultural uses as future development occurs. Development of land surrounding preserved parcels may indirectly cause these parcels to transition to non-agricultural use in the future. Any additional mitigation measures, such as the preservation of designated farmland, are not feasible and conflict with the other objectives of the General Plan Update, specifically to “proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner” and “attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents”, and would potentially discourage future development envisioned in the General Plan Update. Although the General Plan Update includes policies and actions to support continued agricultural use within the Study Area, the potential for future development to conflict with a preserved or Williamson Act contract would be a significant unavoidable impact.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS:

LAND USE ELEMENT
Policy LU-2.4: Agricultural Uses. Allow and support the continuation of agricultural operations on lands within the City limits that are designated for development uses, until such time as new development is proposed for the land.

3. Other Changes
Threshold: Would the project involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact AG-3, pages 5.2-10 through 5.2-11)
Explanation: There are no forest lands within the Study Area, nor are there suitable environmental conditions for forest land to be developed; therefore, implementation of the proposed Project will not result in the conversion of forest land to non-forest use.

The General Plan Update does not designate any lands specifically for agricultural use, nor does it propose the direct conversion of existing Farmland to non-agricultural use. Nonetheless, implementation of the General Plan Update could intensify uses within the Study Area in a manner

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1082 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 204 of 266 ends

that would further reduce the feasibility of agricultural production.

Therefore, implementation of the proposed General Plan Update would result in other changes in the existing environment which, due to location or nature, could result in conversion of farmland to non-agricultural use.

The General Plan Update Land Use Element includes policies and actions to support continued agricultural activities. For example, Policy LU-3.6 ensures that new urban uses proposed adjacent to lands designated for agricultural uses include adequate buffers to reduce potential land use conflicts and nuisance impacts to sensitive receptors. Action LU-3e states that during both redevelopment and new development projects, the provision and maintenance of setbacks an buffers, such as roadways, and topographic features is to be encouraged to prevent incompatibilities between agricultural and non-agricultural use. Additionally, SJDC Section

17.305.040, Agriculture Preservation (Right-to-Farm) provides the declared policy of the City to preserve, protect, and encourage development of its agricultural land consistent with Civil Code Section 3482.5. Section 3482.5 provides that no agricultural activity, operation, or facility, or appurtenances, conducted or maintained for commercial purposes, and in a manner consistent with proper and accepted customs and standards, as established and followed by similar agricultural operations in the same locality, shall be or become a nuisance, private or public, due to any changed condition in or about the locality, after it has been in operation for more than three years if it was not a nuisance at the time it began. Any additional mitigation measures, such as the preservation of designated farmland, are not feasible and conflict with the other objectives of the General Plan Update, specifically to “proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner” and “attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents”, and would potentially discourage future development envisioned in the General Plan Update. Although implementation of the General Plan Update policies and actions and the SJDC would assist in reducing the potential for some existing Farmland to convert to non-agricultural uses, it is anticipated that changes in the existing environment associated with future development anticipated by the General Plan Update would result in the conversion of Farmland to non-agricultural use and impacts would be significant and unavoidable.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS:

LAND USE ELEMENT
Policy LU-3.6: Agricultural Compatibility. Ensure that new urban uses that are proposed adjacent to lands designated for agricultural uses include adequate buffers to reduce potential land use conflicts and nuisance impacts to sensitive receptors.

Action LU-3e: During both redevelopment and the development of new projects, encourage the provision and maintenance of setbacks and buffers, such as roadways,

topographic features, and open space, to prevent incompatibilities between agricultural and non-agricultural land uses.

B. AIR QUALITY

1. Cumulatively Considerable Pollutant Emissions
Threshold: Would the project result in cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is in non-attainment under the applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard? Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact AQ-2, pages 5.3-32 through 5.3-38)
Explanation: The SCAQMD has established numerical significance thresholds for regional emissions during construction and operation. Daily emissions were estimated for the construction of the land uses provided in the General Plan Update. The calculations used to develop construction emissions incorporate compliance with applicable dust control measures required to be implemented during each phase of construction by SCAQMD Rule 403 (Control of Fugitive Dust), and fugitive VOC control measures required to be implemented by architectural coating emission factors based on SCAQMD Rule 1113 (Architectural Coatings); however, the constructionrelated daily emissions would exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Therefore, short-term regional construction emissions would be potentially significant. Additionally, operation of future development accommodated by the General Plan Update would generate criteria air pollutant emissions from project-generated vehicle trips traveling within the City, energy sources such as natural gas combustion, and area sources such as landscaping equipment and consumer products usage. Operational emissions for future development accommodated by the General Plan Update would exceed regulatory thresholds for VOC, NOx, CO, PM10, and PM2.5. While these thresholds are the only thresholds available for numerically determining significance, it should be noted that these thresholds were specifically developed for use in determining significance for individual projects and not for program-level documents, such as the General Plan Update. However, as emissions for VOC, NOx, CO, PM10, and PM2.5 exceed regulatory thresholds, the regional operational emissions would be potentially significant. With respect to operational emissions, future development under the General Plan Update would be required to comply with AQMP, SIP, CARB, SCAQMD regulations, Title 24 energy efficiency standards, and the General Plan Update’s policies and actions. Policy RM-4.2 of the General Plan Update Resources Management Element requires the City to coordinate with CARB and SCAQMD to enforce the standards of the Clean Air Act. Policy RM-4.6 encourages and incentivizes higher density and mixed-use development opportunities to lessen the impacts of traffic congestion on

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1084 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 206 of 266 ends

local air quality. Policy RM-4.8 requires the implementation of relevant mitigation measures for all future development upon identification of potential air quality impacts. Action RM-5e provides for the continue review of development projects to ensure that all new public and private development complies with Title 24 energy standards, as well as the energy efficiency standards established by the General Plan Update and the Municipal Code. However, as there is no way to determine the effectiveness of such regulations, policies, and actions for individual projects, it is impossible to determine if potential impacts would be reduced to below regulatory thresholds. There are no feasible criteria air pollutant reduction measures beyond those identified in the General Plan Update that would reduce impacts. While implementation of these policies and actions would reduce criteria pollutant emissions, the extent to which the impacts would need to be determined on a project-by-project basis, as necessary.

Therefore, this impact is significant and unavoidable.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS:

LAND USE ELEMENT
Policy LU-1.1: Land Use Pattern. Promote an appropriate land use plan that fosters and enhances community livability and public health; sustains economic vitality; promotes efficient development and multiple transportation options; reduces pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and the expenditure of energy and other resources; and ensures compatibility between uses consistent with the land use designations identified in this Element and Land Use Map (LU-2).

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ELEMENT
Goal RM-4: Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Improved air quality in San Jacinto and the region through reductions in air pollutants and greenhouse gas (GHG emissions).

Policy RM-4.1: Regional Cooperation. Support regional efforts, including those organized through the South Coast Air Quality Management District, Southern California Association of Governments, the Western Riverside Council of Governments, and the California Air Resource Board (CARB) to implement the regional Air Quality Management Plan.

Policy RM-4.2: Measurement and Enforcement. Coordinate with the California Air Resources Board and South Coast Air Quality Management District to properly measure air quality at emission sources and enforce the standards of the Clean Air Act.

Policy RM-4.4: Transportation Options. Promote alternative modes of transportation to reduce vehicular emissions and improve air quality. (See Mobility Element) Policy RM-4.5: Walkability. Encourage pedestrian-scale development and pedestrian4.1.f Packet Pg. 1085 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 207 of 266 ends

friendly design features to reduce vehicle emissions. (See Mobility Element) Policy RM-4.6: Sustainable Development. Encourage and incentivize higher density and mixed-use development opportunities within designated areas of the City to lessen the impacts of traffic congestion on local air quality. (See Land Use Element) Policy RM-4.7: Sensitive Receptors. Insulate sensitive receptors from areas of heightened air quality pollution, by utilizing land use planning to buffer and protect residential areas.

Policy RM-4.8: Mitigation. Require the implementation of relevant mitigation measures for all future development upon identification of potential air quality impacts.

Policy RM-4.8: Public Engagement. Promote regional air quality programs in order to inform the public on regional air quality concerns and encourage the engagement of all San Jacinto residents in future planning decisions related to air quality.

Action RM-4b: Review all new industrial and commercial development projects for potential air quality impacts to residences and other sensitive receptors. Ensure that mitigation measures and best management practices are implemented to reduce significant emissions of criteria pollutants.

Action RM-4c: Review development, infrastructure, and planning projects for consistency with SCAQMD requirements during the CEQA review process. Require project applicants to prepare air quality analyses to address SCAQMD and General Plan requirements, which include analysis and identification of:

1. Air pollutant emissions associated with the project during construction, project operation, and cumulative conditions.

2. Potential exposure of sensitive receptors to toxic air contaminants.

3. Significant air quality impacts associated with the project for construction, project operation, and cumulative conditions.

4. Mitigation measures to reduce significant impacts to less than significant or the maximum extent feasible where impacts cannot be mitigated to less than significant.

Action RM-4d: Work with the South Coast Air Quality Management District, Southern California Association of Governments, the Western Riverside Council of Governments, and the California Air Resource Board (CARB) to implement programs aimed at improving regional air quality.

Action RM-4n: Future development projects implemented under the General Plan will be required to demonstrate consistency with SCAQMD construction emission thresholds.

Where emissions from individual projects exceed SCAQMD thresholds, the following actions shall be incorporated as necessary to minimize impacts. These measures do not exclude the use of other, equally effective mitigation measures.

Packet Pg. 1086 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 208 of 266 ends

 Require all off-road diesel equipment greater than 50 horsepower (hp) used for this Project to meet USEPA Tier 4 final off-road emission standards or equivalent. Such equipment shall be outfitted with Best Available Control Technology (BACT) devices including a California Air Resources Board Certified Level 3 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) or equivalent. The DPF reduces diesel particulate matter and NOx emissions during construction activities.
 Require a minimum of 50 percent of construction debris be diverted for recycling.  Require building materials to contain a minimum 10 percent recycled content.  Require materials such as paints, primers, sealants, coatings, and glues to have a low volatile organic compound concentration compared to conventional products.

If low VOC materials are not available, architectural coating phasing should be extended sufficiently to reduce the daily emissions of VOCs.

Action RM-4o: Future development projects implemented under the General Plan will be required to demonstrate consistency with SCAQMD’s operational emission thresholds. For projects where operational emissions exceed regulatory thresholds, the following measures may be used to reduce impacts. Note the following measures are not all inclusive and developers have the option to add or substitute measures that are equally or more appropriate for the scope of the project.
 Develop a project specific TDM program for residents and/or employees that provides opportunities for carpool/vanpools.
 Provide onsite solar/renewable energy in excess of regulatory requirements.  Require that owners/tenants of non-residential or multi-family residential developments use architectural coatings that are 10 grams per liter or less when repainting/repairing properties.
 Require dripless irrigation and irrigation sensor units that prevent watering during rain storms.
 Ensure all parking areas are wired for capability of future EV charging and include EV charging stations that exceed regulatory requirements.

Goal RM-5: Energy and Mineral Resources. A community that safely manages its energy and mineral resources.

Policy RM-5.1: San Jacinto Power. Continue to make clean, modern, and cost-effective energy options available to individuals who live and work in San Jacinto.

Policy RM-5.2: Compliance with State Legislation. Comply with all state requirements regarding the generation of power and encourage energy providers to investigate the use or expansion of renewable sources of energy.

Packet Pg. 1087 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 209 of 266 ends

Policy RM-5.3: Renewable Energy. Promote the development and use of renewable energy resources to reduce dependency on fossil fuels.

Policy RM-5.4: Energy-Efficient Materials. Promote the use of energy-efficient materials, equipment, and design in public and private facilities and infrastructure.

Policy RM-5.9: Promote Energy Conservation in Existing Building Stock. Promote energy conservation by residents and businesses in existing structures, through the City’s newsletter, flyers, and website, in close coordination with other agencies and local energy providers, including the SCAQMD and Southern California Edison.

2. Sensitive Receptors
Threshold: Would the project expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact 3.3-3, pages 3.3-35 through 3.3-37)
Explanation: Criteria air pollutant emissions have the potential to result in health impacts on sensitive receptors located near new development within the Study Area.

Based on the nature and extent of new development, nearby sensitive receptors could be exposed to levels of toxic air contaminants that could result in a potential increase in cancer, acute, and/or chronic risk. Because the exact nature, location, and operation of the future developments are unknown, and because health risk impacts from TACs are cumulative over the life of the nearby receptors, quantification of potential health risks would be speculative. However, as construction and operation of these future developments would occur within close proximity to sensitive receptors, there is the potential for risk to exceed regulatory levels.

Additionally, without knowing the exact specifications for all projects that may be developed under the General Plan Update, there is no way to accurately calculate the potential for health impacts from the overall General Plan Update. Individual projects would be required to provide their own environmental assessments to determine health impacts from the construction and operation of their projects. The proposed policies of the General Plan Update would potentially reduce emissions, which could potentially reduce impacts related to conflicts with an applicable air quality plan. Goal RM-4 of the General Plan Update Resources Management Element addresses potential air quality impacts by supporting projects, programs, policies and regulations that reduce impacts to air quality by private and public construction projects. Specifically, Policy RM-4.7 addresses potential air quality impacts to sensitive receptors. Policy LU-1.1 of the General Plan Update Land Use Element promotes a land use pattern that would reduce pollution and air quality impacts. With respect to local air quality emissions, toxic air contaminant emissions, and health impacts, future development under the General Plan Update would be required to

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1088 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 210 of 266 ends

comply with AQMP, SIP, CARB, SCAQMD regulations, Title 24 energy efficiency standards, and the proposed General Plan Update policies and actions. However, the exact location, type, nature, and size of future projects that may expose sensitive receptors to pollutant concentrations cannot be calculated at this time, as the details of potential future projects are not currently known. As such, there is no way to determine the extent to which these regulations will be, or need to be, implemented, and it is impossible to determine if potential impacts would be reduced to below regulatory thresholds. Additionally, there are no feasible mitigation measures beyond the policies and actions listed in the General Plan Update. Therefore, localized operational impacts, construction and operational health and toxic air impacts would remain significant and unavoidable.

C. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES

1. Candidate, Sensitive, or Special Status Species
Threshold: Would the project have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact BIO-1, pages 5.4-24 through 5.4-28)
Explanation: Future development associated with the General Plan Update would increase urbanization throughout the City with the potential to result in direct or indirect impacts to candidate, sensitive, or special-status species.

Pursuant to the special-status species search, 45 special-status plant species and 59 special-status wildlife species are located within a 12-quad search of San Jacinto and are considered candidate, sensitive, or special status under FESA, CESA and/or CNPS/CRPR designation. There are seven sensitive natural communities within the 12-quad search area. The implementation of the MSHCP for future implementing projects consistent with the General Plan Update at a project-specific level would minimize direct, indirect, and cumulative biological impacts. The MSHCP was prepared to provide for the take and mitigation of the 146 species covered under the MSHCP pursuant to the FESA, which includes most of the species identified in the specialstatus species search. The MSHCP allows for the issuance of take at the local level, by MSHCP Permittees including the City, thereby streamlining the take authorization process on a project by-project basis. Any open space set aside on a site or conserved elsewhere (for example, as part of MSHCP requirements) would provide protected habitat for the benefit of the common species as well as sensitive and protected species. As required by the MSHCP Implementing Agreement (Section 8.5), payment of the Local Development Mitigation Fee and compliance with all applicable

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1089 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 211 of 266 ends

requirements of the MSHCP provides full mitigation under CEQA, NEPA, FESA, and CESA for all direct, indirect and cumulative impacts to MSHCP covered species and habitats. The MSHCP also addresses indirect impacts through defined sub-areas consisting of habitats of appropriate size, configuration, and vegetation characteristics that specific covered species may live in or move through, as well as MSHCP fees. Furthermore, for MSHCP covered species, the Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/EIS) (State Clearinghouse No. 2001101108, CEQ Number 020463, ERP Number SFW-K99032-CA) prepared for the MSHCP was a project-specific EIR/EIS and found that with a combination of impact reduction features incorporated into the MSHCP, including reserve configuration, adaptive management and monitoring, and species survey and avoidance/minimization policies, development consistent with the MSHCP would have less than significant impacts to covered species.

Subsequent development under the proposed General Plan Update could result in direct impacts to certain species found present on an individual project site, particularly those not covered by the MSHCP. Future development projects would be required to adhere to applicable federal, State, and local regulations that provide for sensitive species as part of the discretionary approval process for site-specific development projects.

Compliance with applicable regulations at the time of future development would minimize adverse impacts to sensitive species. Additionally, the General Plan Update Resource Management Element includes policies and actions to preserve and protect biological resources within the Study Area.

Policy RM-1.1 supports a balanced and integrated open space system that reflects a variety of considerations, including resource conservation, recreation, aesthetics, and community identity. Policy RM-1.3 preserve and enhances biological communities that contribute to the region’s biodiversity, with a special focus on sensitive, rare, or endangered plant and wildlife species in accordance with State and federal resource agency requirements. Policy RM-1.4 addresses regional cooperation by recognizing areas of overlapping jurisdiction with respect to open space and biological resources, such as the County MSHCP, and coordinating the City’s actions with efforts of surrounding cities, agencies, and Riverside County to protect and maximize regional open space. Policy RM-1.6 would conserve existing native vegetation where possible and integrate regionally native plant species into development and infrastructure projects where appropriate. Action RM-1c directs the City to work closely with the USACE, USFWS, and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) during the discretionary project permitting and CEQA review of any project that may result in the alteration of a stream bed, involve the removal of vegetation in wetland and riparian habitats, disturb Waters of the United States or otherwise impact sensitive biological resources. Action RM-1d directs the City to cooperate with the County to develop and manage preserve areas within the urban landscape. During the review of

development proposals, the City would use the MSHCP (particularly Section 3.2.13 San Jacinto Valley Area Plan) to help assess potential project impacts and mitigation requirements. Development in the City shall be required to comply with the applicable terms of the MSHCP including, but not limited to, the payment of mitigation fees, narrow endemic surveys, riparian/riverine policy, and other applicable surveys. Projects located within criteria cell areas shall be reviewed through the MSHCP Joint Project Review as appropriate. Further, Action RM-1i addresses potential resources outside of the MSHCP area to ensure they are identified and addressed as part of the development review process. Action RM-1j would ensure that surveys are conducted if vegetation and tree removal is proposed to occur during the nesting bird season and to provide for buffers if active nests are confirmed. Adherence to these policies and actions during the discretionary review of future development projects would serve to minimize impacts to sensitive species. Although numerous regulations including implementation of the MSHCP and General Plan Update policies and actions would minimize impacts to sensitive species, at a program level of review, it cannot be ensured that all impacts could be reduced to less than significant at the site-specific level. Therefore, potential impacts to candidate, sensitive, or special status species would be considered significant and unavoidable.

Action RM-1d: Cooperate with the County of Riverside to develop and manage preserve areas within the urban landscape. During the review of development proposals, use the Western Riverside County MSHCP Habitat Conservation Plan (particularly Section 3.2.13 San Jacinto Valley Area Plan) to help assess potential project impacts and mitigation requirements. Development in the City shall be required to comply with the applicable terms of the MSHCP including, but not limited to, the payment of mitigation fees, narrow endemic surveys, riparian/riverine policy, and other applicable surveys. Projects located within criteria cell areas shall be reviewed through the MSHCP Joint Project Review as appropriate.

Action RM-1i: During the development review process, require Applicants of developments with the potential to reduce or eliminate habitat for native plant and wildlife species or sensitive habitats not covered by the MSHCP, as determined by the City of San Jacinto’s Community Development Department, to prepare a site-specific general biological resources survey to identify the presence of any sensitive biological resources, including any sensitive plant or wildlife species. The report shall identify the need for focused presence/absence surveys and identify the presence of state or federal regulated wetlands or waters. Required surveys shall be conducted by qualified biologists and/or botanists in accordance with California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and/or United States Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS) survey protocols for target species. If no sensitive species are observed during the field survey then no further mitigation will be required. If sensitive species or habitats, including wetlands are documented on the project site, the project applicant shall comply with the applicable requirements of the regulatory agencies and shall apply mitigation determined through the agency permitting process.

Action RM-1j: Where feasible, vegetation and tree removal should occur outside of the bird nesting season (February 1 to August 31). If not feasible, the project applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a nesting bird survey no more than three days prior to the commencement of construction activities. The biologist conducting the clearance survey shall document the negative results if no active bird nests are observed on the project site or within the vicinity during the clearance survey with a brief letter report, submitted to the City of San Jacinto Community Development Department prior to construction, indicating that no impacts to active bird nests would occur before construction can proceed.

and the issuance of any permits, results of the pre-construction survey and any subsequent monitoring shall be provided to the City of San Jacinto Community Development Department, California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and other appropriate agencies.

2. Riparian Habitat
Threshold: Would the project have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or US Fish and Wildlife Service?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact BIO-2, pages 5.4-28 through 5.4-31)
Explanation: The Study Area contains numerous aquatic habitats that qualify as sensitive habitat. Subsequent development under the proposed General Plan Update could result in impacts to riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community. This is considered a potentially significant impact.

Potential impacts would need to be assessed on a project-specific basis once site-specific development is proposed. Under the MSHCP, any proposed Project would require an assessment for impacts to riparian habitat to determine the presence/absence of such habitat and the measures necessary to mitigate potential direct and indirect impacts associated with the specific development. The General Plan Update Resource Management Element also includes policies and actions intended to protect sensitive natural communities, including riparian habitat, from adverse effects associated with future development and improvement projects within the Study Area.

Policy RM-1.1 supports a balanced and integrated open space system that reflects a variety of considerations, including resource conservation, recreation, aesthetics, and community identity. Policy RM-1.3 preserves and enhances biological communities that contribute to the region’s biodiversity, with a special focus on sensitive, rare, or endangered plant and wildlife species in accordance with State and federal resource agency requirements. Policy RM-1.4 addresses regional cooperation by recognizing areas of overlapping jurisdiction with respect to open space and biological resources, such as the MSHCP, and coordinating the City’s actions with efforts of surrounding cities, agencies, and Riverside County to protect and maximize regional open space. Policy RM-1.6 would conserve existing native vegetation where possible and integrate regionally native plant species into development and infrastructure projects where appropriate. Action RM-1c directs the City to work closely with the USACE, USFWS, and the CDFW during the discretionary project permitting and CEQA review of any project that may result in the alteration of a stream bed, involve the removal of vegetation in wetland and riparian habitats, disturb Waters of the United States or otherwise impact sensitive

biological resources. Action RM-1d directs the City to cooperate with the County to develop and manage preserve areas within the urban landscape.

During the review of development proposals, the City would use the MSHCP (particularly Section 3.2.13 San Jacinto Valley Area Plan) to help assess potential project impacts and mitigation requirements. Development in the City shall be required to comply with the applicable terms of the MSHCP including, but not limited to, the payment of mitigation fees, narrow endemic surveys, riparian/riverine policy, and other applicable surveys. Projects located within criteria cell areas shall be reviewed through the MSHCP Joint Project Review as appropriate. Further, Action RM-1i addresses potential resources outside of the MSHCP area to ensure they are identified and addressed as part of the development review process. Action RM-1j would ensure that vegetation and tree removal occurring during the nesting bird season conduct surveys prior to the commencement of construction activities and to provide for buffers if active nests are confirmed. Policy RM-2.4 encourages development that avoids impacts to watershed areas, wetlands, natural drainage channels, riparian areas, and creeks, retaining these resources in their natural condition if feasible. Action RM-2b directs the City to cooperate with the RWQCB to develop a plan to assist agricultural operations to reduce nitrate and sediment input to surface waters. Such a plan will enhance water quality and benefit aquatic plants and wildlife within the planning area as well as downstream. Future development projects would be required to comply with the General Plan Update and adopted federal, State, and local regulations for the protection of sensitive natural communities, including riparian habitat. Although numerous regulations including implementation of the MSHCP and General Plan Update policies and actions would minimize impacts to sensitive riparian habitat, at a program level of review, it cannot be ensured that all impacts could be reduced to less than significant at the site-specific level.

Therefore, potential impacts to riparian habitat and other sensitive natural communities would be considered significant and unavoidable.

site or within the vicinity during the clearance survey with a brief letter report, submitted to the City of San Jacinto Community Development Department prior to construction, indicating that no impacts to active bird nests would occur before construction can proceed.

If an active avian nest is discovered during the pre-construction clearance survey, construction activities shall stay outside a 300-foot buffer around the active nest. For listed and raptor species, this buffer shall be 500 feet. A biological monitor shall be present to delineate the boundaries of the buffer area and to monitor the active nest to ensure the nesting behavior is not adversely affected by construction activity, pursuant to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA). Prior to the commencement of construction activities and the issuance of any permits, results of the pre-construction survey and any subsequent monitoring shall be provided to the City of San Jacinto Community Development Department, California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and other appropriate agencies.

Action RM-2b: Cooperate with the Regional Water Quality Control Board to develop a plan to assist agricultural operations to reduce nitrate and sediment input to surface waters.

Such a plan will enhance water quality and benefit aquatic plants and wildlife within the planning area as well as downstream.

D. GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS

1. Generation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Threshold: Would the project generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact GHG-1, pages 5.8-18 through 5.8-37)
Explanation: Implementation of the proposed Project would contribute to increases of GHG emissions that are associated with global climate change. Estimated GHG emissions attributable to future development would be primarily associated with increases of CO2 and other GHG pollutants, such as methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), from mobile sources and utility usage. WRCOG has developed a subregional CAP with the participation of the City of San Jacinto, as well as other jurisdictions in the subregion, to achieve local GHG emissions levels that would be consistent with the Statewide reduction targets established by AB 32, SB 32, and CARB’s 2017 Scoping Plan. Additionally, the City of San Jacinto has set a target to reduce community-wide emissions to 1.83 MTCO2e per service population (SP) by the year 2030, consistent with the method used to establish the WRCOG Subregion’s 2030 target, as described in the WRCOG Subregional CAP, to achieve the target of 40 percent below 1990 GHG emission levels by 2030

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1096 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 218 of 266 ends

as encapsulated by SB 32. This equates to total annual emissions target of 147,932 MTCO2e per year by the year 2030, based on the City’s population and jobs forecasts. The City also set a longer-range goal of 0.62 MTCO2e per SP by 2050, consistent with the State’s goal to achieve 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Reductions associated with the City’s waste diversion efforts are accounted for by State measure SR-1 (Recycling and Waste Diversion Mandates), while reductions resulting from local water conservation and reuse are accounted for by State Measure SW-1 (Water Conservation Mandates). The City is also supporting statewide efforts to reduce emissions from agriculture through its support for local farms and community gardens. These measures implemented together result in an estimated 191,700 MTCO2e in community emissions for 2030, or 3.3 MTCO2e per capita, which is an approximate 6 percent reduction compared to the 2017 levels, but above the 2030 target of 147,932 MTCO2e by 43,768 MTCO2e. The City also set a longer-range goal of 0.62 MTCO2e per SP by 2050, consistent with the State’s goal to achieve 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. The reduction of GHG emissions puts the City on the path to achieve its 2050 emissions targets. However, the City would need additional actions to keep the City on a path that aligns with the State of California’s longer-term goal for 2050.

The General Plan Update would not conflict with the implementation of the CARB’s 2017 Scoping Plan. General Plan Update policies and actions that support the implementation of the Scoping Plan would improve air quality, reduce GHG emissions, encourage alternative modes of transportation, such as walking, biking, and public transportation, and divert waste from landfills. Specifically, the proposed General Plan Update Land Use Element includes Policy LU-1.1 which promotes a land use plan that supports efficient development and multiple transportation options. Policy LU-2.2 encourages new development to occur in infill locations that reduces sprawl, preserves open space, and creates convenient connections to other land uses and activity centers. Proposed Economic Development Element Policy ED-3.1 encourages higher density housing and higher intensity employment space to locate in mixed-use formats along the City’s commercial corridors, near transit nodes, and in areas well-served by the City’s multimodal transportation network. The General Plan Update Resources Management Element includes Policy RM-4.3 to align the City’s local GHG reduction targets with the statewide GHG reduction targets of AB 32, and aligns the City’s GHG reduction goal with the statewide GHG reduction goal of Executive Order S-03-05. Policy RM-4.5 encourages pedestrian-scale development and pedestrian-friendly design features to reduce vehicle emissions. Policy RM-4.9 establishes the City’s per capita GHG reduction targets for 2030 and 2050. Policy RM-4.10 encourages the adoption of local policies and programs consistent with the local measures identified in the WRCOG Subregional CAP for the City to reduce GHG emissions. Policy RM-4.11 expands the number of parks and trees in the

City to provide a larger carbon sink. The proposed Mobility Element includes goals and policies to encourage the reduction of VMT to lower GHG emissions. This includes Goal M-3, which supports a multi-modal transportation network that provides sufficient vehicular, pedestrian, bike and transit facilities. Policy M-3.2 incorporates facilities and design features into transportation improvement projects that support the use of public transit and active transportation. Policy M-3.3 links commercial development, employment centers, public facilities, and community parks and open spaces to transit and active transportation facilities and trails, wherever feasible. Overall, General Plan Update impacts related to consistency with the 2017 Scoping Plan would be less than significant. The General Plan Update would also not conflict with the implementation of 2022 Scoping Plan and its future programs.

The proposed Project does not conflict with the implementation of the 2017 Scoping Plan; however, the Project does not meet the 2030 community emissions target and would therefore have a significant and unavoidable impact. WRCOG recommends additional reduction measures in the City’s CAP, including encouraging residents and businesses to enroll in SCE’s Green Rate program (currently offering 50 percent and 100 percent renewable options), and adopting a local building code beyond Title 24 that incentivizes electrification or limits the use of fossil natural gas in new buildings and major retrofits. The General Plan Update Resource Management Element Action RM-5j encourages SCE customers to participate in SCE’s 100% Green Tier. The City is not planning on adopting the additional measure recommended in the WRCOG Subregional CAP for the City to adopt a local building code beyond Title 24, since the measure is not feasible and conflicts with the other objectives of the General Plan Update, specifically to “attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents”, and would potentially discourage future development envisioned in the General Plan Update. The City will continue to participate in the regional efforts of the CAP and implement feasible measures, as specified in the General Plan Update Resource Management Element Policy RM-4.10 and Action RM-4a, which commits the City to continue participating with WRCOG’s Subregional CAP updates.

In order to further reduce GHG emissions associated with buildout of the General Plan Update, the City has included numerous policies and actions aimed at reducing GHG emissions and promoting sustainability in San Jacinto. The General Plan Update proposes policies and actions that are specifically relevant to climate change and GHG emissions and energy consumption within the Study Area. Specifically, the General Plan Update Resources Management Element includes Policy RM-4.1, which supports regional efforts, including those organized through the SCAQMD, SCAG, the WRCOG, and CARB to implement the regional AQMP. Policy RM-4.3 aligns the City’s local GHG reduction targets with the statewide GHG

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1098 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

reduction targets of AB 32, and aligns the City’s GHG reduction goal with the statewide GHG reduction goal of Executive Order S-03-05. Policy RM49 establishes the per capita GHG reduction targets to meet the requirements established by the state under AB 32 and SB 32, consistent with the CARB’s 2017 Scoping Plan. Policy RM-4.11 expands the number of parks and trees in San Jacinto to provide a larger carbon sink or area containing natural sources that retain more carbon than what those sources emit. Action RM-4a implements the local GHG reduction measures identified in the WRCOG’s Subregional CAP for San Jacinto, directs the City to participate in future updates of the CAP, and on an annual basis record the status of each local measure and submit the results to WRCOG using the WRCOG Climate Action Plan Tracking Tool. Action RM-5e provides for the continue review of development projects to ensure that all new public and private development complies with Title 24 energy standards, as well as the energy efficiency standards established by the General Plan Update and the Municipal code.

Numerous policies and programs in the General Plan Update address sustainable development, which influence operational mobile, energy, and area-source emissions in the Study Area. Resource Management Element Policy RM-4.6 encourages and incentivizes higher density and mixed-use development opportunities within designated areas of the City to lessen the impacts of traffic congestion on local air quality. Additional policies and actions throughout the Land Use and Mobility Elements promote reductions in VMT through the mix and density of land uses, walkable neighborhood design, bicycle facilities and infrastructure, the expansion of trail networks, and public transportation facilities and infrastructure. Specifically, the proposed Land Use Element includes Policy LU-1.1 which promotes an appropriate land use plan that promotes efficient development and multiple transportation options. Policy LU-2.2 encourages new development to occur in infill locations to reduce sprawl, preserve open space, and create convenient connections to other land uses and activity centers. Policy LU4.4 supports pedestrian-friendly and pedestrian-scaled development that encourages more social interaction and less automobile use, especially in the Downtown Village. The proposed Mobility Element contains Policy M2.4 which promotes public transportation programs that effectively serve the City’s residents and workers by connecting users to local and regional destinations, including jobs, recreation, retail and other activity centers.

Policy M-3.2 incorporates facilities and design features into transportation improvement projects that support the use of public transit and active transportation. Policy M-3.3 links commercial development, employment centers, public facilities, and community parks and open spaces to transit and active transportation facilities and trails, wherever feasible. Mobility Element Policy M-4.3 encourages the use of open space and utility easements for bicycle, pedestrian, and equestrian trails. Policy M-6.2 encourages the creation and implementation of TDM and congestion

4.1.f

management mitigation measures in areas experiencing high levels of congestion and VMT levels. Additionally, Policy M-6.4 promotes working with developers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and minimize congestion related to new development through improvements to the circulation system and on-site improvements that encourage non-vehicular modes of travel. Additionally, policies in the Resource Management Element promote conservation of open space. Policy RM-1.1 supports a balanced and integrated open space system that reflects a variety of considerations, including resource conservation, recreation, aesthetics, and community identity. While these policies and actions would further assist the City is reducing GHG emissions, the associated reduction of GHG emissions are not quantifiable. Because of this, the City cannot state with certainty whether implementation of the General Plan Update would meet the 2030 and 2050 community emissions targets.

2. Conflict with Greenhouse Gas Regulations
Threshold: Would the project conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact 3.8-6, pages 3.8-26 through 3.8-28)
Explanation: The General Plan Update would not satisfy the GHG reduction requirements established by SB 32 and AB 32. The GHG reduction targets developed for the proposed General Plan Update are consistent with the GHG reduction targets provided in the CARB’s 2017 Scoping Plan, which were developed by the CARB to ensure compliance with AB 32, SB 32, and consistent with Executive Order S-03-05. The proposed Project does not conflict with the implementation of the 2017 Scoping Plan; however, the Project does not meet the 2030 or 2050 community emissions target. The Project would not reduce emissions to below the community wide thresholds through buildout of the General Plan Update (i.e. for years 2030 and 2040), which ensures that the proposed Project is consistent with all GHG reduction targets established for the State. Therefore, the proposed Project would conflict with the State of California’s GHG reduction goals and targets. While the General Plan Update policies and actions would further assist the City in reducing GHG emissions, the associated reduction of GHG emissions are not quantifiable. Because of this, the City cannot state with certainty whether implementation of the General Plan Update would meet the 2030 and 2050 community emissions targets.

At the regional level, the 2020 RTP/SCS is an applicable plan adopted for the purpose of reducing GHGs. The Project would be consistent with the 2020 RTP/SCS through various polices. The General Plan Update policies would support development that is encouraged by the RTP/SCS to reduce VMT and expand multi-modal transportation options in order for the region to achieve GHG reductions from the land use and transportation sectors required by SB 375, which, in turn, advances the State’s long-term climate policies. By furthering implementation of SB 375, the General Plan Update supports regional land use and transportation GHG reductions consistent with State regulatory requirements. Therefore, the Project would be consistent with the GHG reduction-related actions and strategies contained in the 2020 RTP/SCS. While the proposed Project is consistent with the CARB 2017 Scoping Plan and the SCAG 2020 RTP/SCS, the proposed Project would not meet the established reduction targets of SB 32, and AB

32. There would be a significant and unavoidable impact relative to this topic. The City of San Jacinto will be implementing the additional GHG reductions strategies shown in the Draft EIR Response GHG-1 in order to further reduce emissions.

E. NOISE

1. Ambient Noise Levels
Threshold: Would the project result in the generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies?
Finding: Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Impact NOI-1, pages 5.13-27 through 5.13-44)
Explanation: Transportation Noise Impacts
The City of San Jacinto is proposing an updated General Plan Land Use Map and an updated Roadway Classification Map in anticipation of the expected growth in the City. The primary noise source in the Study Area would continue to be vehicle traffic. By the year 2040, existing land uses adjacent to the studied roadways would be exposed to noise levels that exceed the City’s exterior standards presented in the proposed General Plan Update Table PS-1. Compared to existing traffic noise levels, future (2040) traffic volumes are expected to be up to 11.9 dBA CNEL louder than existing ambient noise levels at existing land uses and would result in substantial increases in ambient noise along many of the studied road segments. Implementation of the proposed 2040 General Plan Update Land Use Plan and Roadway Classifications Map would result in substantial permanent increases in existing noise levels at existing and future sensitive receptors.

Implementation of the proposed General Plan Update would result in significant impacts related to exceedances of the land use compatibility criteria and substantial increases in ambient noise levels. Where existing land uses would be impacted, the impact would be significant and unavoidable as setback distances of existing sensitive receptors are already established. In order to reduce these impacts, the use of sound walls or quiet pavements could be employed; however, use of new sound walls, or modifying sound walls is not considered to be practical or feasible as a mitigation strategy. Many of the noise impacts could potentially be reduced through the use of quiet pavement. However, not all of the impacted roadway segments could be mitigated through use of quiet pavements due to the magnitude of the traffic noise increases. Additionally, widespread repaving of city streets with quiet pavements would be expensive and

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1110 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 232 of 266 ends

impractical. General Plan Policies PS-6.1 through PS-6.10, and Actions PS-6a through PS-6i, identified below, are intended to minimize exposure to excessive noise, including noise associated with traffic. Specifically, Policies PS-6.1 and PS-6.2 support noise-compatible land uses in the vicinity of traffic noise sources and require that new development and infrastructure projects be reviewed for consistency with the noise standards established in Tables PS-1 and PS-2. The proposed General Plan Update standards required under Policy PS-6.1, for exposure to traffic noise meet or exceed the noise level standards shown in General Plan Update Public Safety Element Tables PS-1 and PS-2. Policy PS-6.2 and Actions PS-6b would ensure that new development mitigates potential noise impacts through incorporating the noise control treatments necessary to achieve acceptable noise levels. Policy PS-6.3 sets criteria for evaluating future increases in traffic noise levels. Action PS-6a would ensure that the San Jacinto Municipal Code, including the updated noise ordinance, is consistent with the noise standards established in the General Plan Update.

Implementation of the proposed policies and actions of the General Plan Update would reduce noise and land use compatibility impacts from vehicular traffic noise sources and would ensure that new development is designed to include noise-attenuating features. However, the traffic noise increases associated with the proposed General Plan Update exceed the applicable noise exposure criteria. Therefore, the proposed General Plan would have a significant and unavoidable impact relative to traffic noise on existing noise-sensitive uses in the City.

Stationary Noise Sources
Implementation of the General Plan could result in the future development of land uses that generate noise levels in excess of applicable City noise standards for non-transportation noise sources. Such land uses may include commercial area loading docks, industrial uses, HVAC equipment, car washes, daycare facilities, auto repair, and recreational uses. While the General Plan does not specifically propose any new noise generating uses, the Land Use Map includes industrial land use designations, which may result in new noise sources. Specific development projects and the details of future noise generating land uses that may be located in the City in the future are not known at this time. While no specific projects are proposed under the General Plan Update, changes in land use may allow for more intensive noise-generating uses in closer proximity to noise-sensitive uses.

Where this occurs, detailed noise studies would be required to ensure that noise control measures are implemented into the project design. Such measures could include redesign of industrial buildings away from sensitive uses, construction of sound walls or berms between noise generating uses and sensitive uses, using buildings to create additional buffer distance and screening, or other site design measures to ensure that non-transportation (stationary) noise sources do not cause exterior noise levels to exceed

4.1.f

Page 233 of 266 ends

allowable standards at sensitive receptors. The General Plan Update includes policies and actions that are intended to reduce noise associated with stationary sources. Specifically, Policies PS-6.1 through PS-6.3 and PS-6.6 through PS-6.10 and Actions PS-6b, PS-6c and PS-6d would reduce noise associated with stationary sources. Policy PS-6.2 and Action PS-6b require new development to mitigate excessive noise to the standards indicated in Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3, and PS-4 through best practices, including building location and orientation, building design features, placement of noise-generating equipment away from sensitive receptors, shielding of noise-generating equipment, placement of noise-tolerant features between noise sources and sensitive receptors, and use of noiseminimizing materials. Implementation of the proposed policies and actions of the General Plan Update would reduce noise impacts from stationary noise sources to a less than significant level.

Construction Noise and Vibration
Implementation of the proposed General Plan Land Use and Mobility Elements would result in short-term noise impacts associated with construction activities, both on- and off-site. Construction crew commute and the transport of construction equipment and materials to the site for the proposed project would incrementally increase noise levels on access roads leading to the site. Short-term construction-related impacts associated with worker commute and equipment transport on local streets leading to the project site would result in a less than significant impact on noise-sensitive receptors along the access routes. No mitigation is required. The site preparation phase of on-site construction activities, which includes grading and paving, tends to generate the highest noise levels since the noisiest construction equipment is earthmoving equipment. Site-specific construction activities associated with future development is expected to require the use of scrapers, bulldozers, motor graders, and water and pickup trucks. Noise reduction potential would be project and site-specific.

Implementation of General Plan Update Public Safety Element Policy PS6.7, which requires construction activities to reduce noise impacts on adjacent uses to comply with the requirements of Chapter 8.40 of the San Jacinto Municipal Code and Action PS-6e which requires all construction activity to comply with the limits established in the City’ noise regulation would result in less than significant construction noise impacts.

General Plan Public Safety Element Table PS-1, Land Use Compatibility for Community Noise Exposure, presents a land use compatibility chart for community noise derived from a similar table originally prepared by the California Office of Noise Control (2017). This table is proposed to be included in the 2040 General Plan Update Public Safety Element. The table identifies “normally acceptable,” “conditionally acceptable,” “normally unacceptable,” and “clearly unacceptable” exterior noise levels for various

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1112 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 234 of 266 ends

land uses. A “conditionally acceptable” designation implies new construction or development should be undertaken only after a detailed analysis of the noise reduction requirements for each land use is made and needed noise insulation features are incorporated in the design. By comparison, a “normally acceptable” designation indicates that standard construction can occur with no special noise reduction requirements. While this land use compatibility chart is based on a 24-hour value, the City is aware that some land uses are not occupied on a 24-hour basis, and a descriptor (such as Ldn or CNEL) may be overly restrictive in siting these types of sensitive land uses. Such uses may include but are not limited to, schools, libraries, and churches. In these cases, a more appropriate standard would consider the time of occupancy of the land use. Here, the City recommends the use of a 65 dBA, 12-hour Leq (Leq(12)) that includes those hours of actual use. (If a facility is to be used in excess of 12 hours per day, the CNEL standard should be used.)
GENERAL PLAN UPDATE GOALS, POLICIES, AND ACTIONS:

PUBLIC SAFETY ELEMENT
Goal PS-1: Noise. A comfortable community environment that is free from excessive noise pollution.

Policy PS-6.1:Noise Exposure. Consider the noise compatibility of existing and future development when making land use planning decisions. Require development and infrastructure projects to be consistent with the land use compatibility standards contained in Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3 and PS-4 to ensure acceptable noise exposure levels for existing and future development.

Policy PS-6.2:Noise Mitigation. Require new development to mitigate excessive noise to the standards indicated in Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3 and PS-4 to the extent feasible through best practices, including building location and orientation, building design features, placement of noise-generating equipment away from sensitive receptors, shielding of noise-generating equipment, placement of noise-tolerant features between noise sources and sensitive receptors, and use of noise-minimizing materials.

Policy PS-6.3:Acoustical Studies. Require acoustical studies for new discretionary developments and transportation improvements that have the potential to affect existing noise-sensitive uses such as schools, hospitals, libraries, care facilities, and residential areas, and for projects that would introduce new noise-sensitive uses into an area where existing noise levels may exceed the thresholds identified in this element. For projects that are required to prepare an acoustical study, the following mobile and stationary noise source criteria shall be used to determine the significance of those impacts.

A. Mobile Noise Sources:
 Where existing traffic noise levels are within or below the “normally acceptable”

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1113 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 235 of 266 ends

noise criteria at the affected land use (see Table PS-1), a readily perceptible 5 dBA CNEL or greater increase in roadway noise will be considered significant;  Where existing traffic noise levels falls within the “conditionally acceptable” noise criteria at the sensitive land use, a +3 dBA CNEL or greater increase in roadway noise levels will be considered significant; and
 Where existing traffic noise levels exceed the “conditionally acceptable” noise criteria at the sensitive land use, a + 1.5 dBA CNEL or greater increase in roadway noise levels will be considered significant.

B. Stationary and Non-Transportation Noise Sources
 A significant impact will occur if the project results in an exceedance of the noise level standards contained in this element, or the project will result in an increase in ambient noise levels by more than 3 dB, whichever is greater.

Policy PS-6.4: Roadway Noise. Encourage nonmotorized transportation alternatives for local trips and the implementation of noise sensitivity measures in the public realm, including traffic-calming road design, lateral separation, natural buffers, and setbacks to decrease excessive motor vehicle noise.

Policy PS-6.5:Vehicular Traffic. Monitor and enforce existing speed limits and motor vehicle codes requiring adequate mufflers on all types of vehicles traveling through the city.

Policy PS-6.6:Commercial Noise. Require the use of noise attenuation measures, including screening and buffering techniques, for all new commercial development expected to produce excessive noise; in existing cases where the City’s noise standards are exceeded, work with Code Enforcement to require compliance.

Policy PS-6.7:Construction Noise. Require construction activities to reduce noise impacts on adjacent uses to the criteria identified in Tables PS-3 and PS-4, or, if the criteria cannot be met, to the maximum extent feasible complying with Chapter 8.40 of the San Jacinto Municipal Code (Noise Control) and use best practices. Construction activities outside of the permitted construction hours identified in the San Jacinto Municipal Code may be approved on a case-by-case basis by the Community Development Director.

Policy PS-6.8:Temporary Special Events. Temporary special events including, but not limited to, festivals, concerts, parades, and other similar activities may be allowed to exceed the noise standards established in this General Plan and the standards established by Chapter 8.40 of the San Jacinto Municipal Code (Noise Control) through issuance of a temporary use permit (see Section 17.640 of the San Jacinto Municipal Code (Temporary Use Permits).

Policy PS-6.9:Temporary Emergency Operations and Emergency Equipment Usage.

Temporary emergency operations or emergency equipment usage is exempt from noise

4.1.f

standard criteria set by this element.

Policy PS-6.10: Interjurisdictional Coordination. Coordinate with neighboring cities to minimize noise conflicts between land uses along the City's boundaries.

Action PS-6a:Review Chapter 8.40 of the San Jacinto Municipal Code and update as necessary to ensure that the noise standards are consistent with this General Plan, including Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3, and PS-4 and to require new residential, mixed-use with a residential component, and other noise-sensitive development to be designed to minimize noise exposure to noise sensitive uses through incorporation of site planning and architectural techniques. The update shall also include noise standards for residential uses within a mixed-use development, which may differ from other adopted residential noise standards.

Action PS-6b:Review new development projects for compliance with the noise requirements established in this General Plan, including the standards established in Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3 and PS-4. Where necessary, require new development to mitigate excessive noise through best practices, including building location and orientation, building design features, placement of noise-generating equipment away from sensitive receptors, shielding of noise-generating equipment, placement of noise-tolerant features between noise sources and sensitive receptors, and use of noise-minimizing materials such as rubberized asphalt.

Action PS-6c:Require acoustical studies for all new discretionary projects, including those related to development and transportation, which have the potential to generate noise impacts which exceed the standards identified in this General Plan. The studies shall include representative noise measurements, estimates of existing and projected noise levels, and mitigation measures necessary to ensure compliance with this element.

Action PS-6d:Review the locations of proposed projects with the potential to generate stationary noise in relation to sensitive receptors through the discretionary project review process. Limit delivery or service hours for stores and businesses with loading areas, docks, or trash bins that front, side, border, or gain access on driveways next to residential and other noise sensitive areas. Only approve exceptions if full compliance with the nighttime limits of the noise regulations is achieved.

Action PS-6e:Require all construction activity to comply with the limits (maximum noise levels, hours and days of allowed activity) established in the City noise regulations (Title 24 California Code of Regulations, Noise Ordinance) in order to reduce impacts associated with temporary construction noise to the extent feasible. Trucks associated with construction activities shall follow the designated truck routes described in the Mobility Element.

Action PS-6f: Actively enforce the standards identified within the City's Noise Ordinance and Noise Plan in order to reduce impacts to the extent feasible. Update and amend the Noise Ordinance and Plan as appropriate. Provide a link on the City's website for those to file complaints against activities and uses that may be violating the Noise Ordinance.

Page 237 of 266 ends

Action PS-6g:Require new residential projects located adjacent to railroad lines to follow the FTA vibration screening distance criteria to ensure that residential uses are not exposed to vibrations exceeding 72 VdB for frequent events (more than 70 events per day), 75 VdB for occasional events (30-70 events per day), or 80 VdB for infrequent events (less than 30 events per day).

Action PS-6h:Require new development to minimize vibration impacts to adjacent uses during demolition and construction. Require vibration studies for all new discretionary projects, including those related to development and transportation, which have the potential to generate vibration impacts which exceeds the vibration limits. This includes projects requiring pile driving and/or construction on properties adjacent to historic structures. For sensitive historic structures, a vibration limit of 0.08 in/sec PPV (peak particle velocity) will be used to minimize the potential for cosmetic damage to the building. A vibration limit of 0.30 in/sec PPV will be used to minimize the potential for cosmetic damage at buildings of normal conventional construction.

Action PS-6i: During subsequent updates to Section 8.40 of the Municipal Code, review and update Section 8.40.090, Construction Activity Noise Regulations, as needed in order to allow provisions for emergency repairs, exceptional circumstances, and reasonable Sunday construction and maintenance activities, while continuing to achieve the objectives of providing a nuisance-free noise environment.

SECTION V

CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
Regarding the General Plan’s potential to result in cumulative impacts, the City hereby finds as follows:

A. AESTHETICS
Threshold: Would future development associated with implementation of the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable aesthetic and light/glare impacts?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.1.6, pages 5.1- 19 through 5.1-20)
Explanation: The General Plan Update would support additional development beyond existing conditions and could increase residential densities and nonresidential land use intensities in specific areas within the Study Area. This new development may result in changes to the skyline throughout the Study Area, which may obstruct or interfere with views of surrounding visual features. Furthermore, 2040 buildout under the proposed General Plan Update has the potential to result in new and expanded development along highway corridors with high scenic values, even though these corridors are not officially designated as State Scenic Highways. Additionally, expanded development could occur alongside County Eligible Scenic Highways within the Study Area designated by the Riverside County General Plan.

Regional growth has and will continue to result in a cumulative aesthetic effect by converting undeveloped land into developed and occupied areas, and increasing overall levels of nighttime lighting. In general, the General Plan Update Land Use Element proposes an increase in building density and intensity, which could increase the number and distribution of dwelling units and other buildings, as well as supporting infrastructure. This is considered a potentially significant cumulative impact. Subsequent projects implemented under the General Plan Update would be required to be consistent with the General Plan Update policies and actions and adopted regulations pertaining to aesthetics and lighting in San Jacinto. With implementation of the adopted policies and regulations described above, the proposed General Plan Update would not considerably contribute to permanent changes in visual character, such as obstruction of scenic views, conversion of existing visual character, and increased lighting resulting in a substantial degradation. The polices and actions included within the General Plan Update and compliance with the SJDC would reduce the cumulative effect of the General Plan Update on visual character to a less-thansignificant level. Therefore, the General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to aesthetic impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

Page 239 of 266 ends

B. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to agricultural resources? Finding: Considerable Contribution and Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.2.5, page 5.2-12)
Explanation: The City does not have any zoning classifications for forestland, timberland, or timberland production zones, nor does the Study Area include any forestland; therefore, the General Plan Update would not contribute to a significant impact relative to forestland, timberland or timberland production zones. There are approximately 3,309 acres of Important Farmlands located within the Study Area, including approximately 413 acres of Prime Farmland, 1,758 acres of Statewide Importance, and 1,138 acres of Unique Farmland. As shown on the General Plan Update Land Use Map, all of the land within the Study Area is planned for urban development, with the exception of areas designated as Open Space, Park, or Water. While some agricultural uses would continue to operate, future development associated with the implementation of the General Plan Update and changes in the economy would likely result in the conversion of many of these areas for urban uses, including lands under a Williamson Act contract. Further, it is assumed that as development occurs, the agricultural viability of lands within the Study Area would be reduced. The General Plan Update includes policies and actions that support the continuance of agricultural activities within the Study Area. Although the General Plan Update would not result in the direct conversion of designated Important Farmland or agricultural land under a Williamson Act contract, the General Plan Update does not require the preservation of agricultural land. Additionally, any additional mitigation measures, such as the preservation of designated farmland, are not feasible and conflict with the other objectives of the General Plan Update, specifically to “proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner” and “attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents”, and would potentially discourage future development envisioned in the General Plan Update. Therefore, implementation of the General Plan Update could result in the permanent loss of agricultural resources within the Study Area, resulting in a significant unavoidable cumulative impact.

C. AIR QUALITY
Threshold: Would development of the General Plan Update and related projects result in cumulatively considerable inconsistencies with the applicable air quality plan?

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1118 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 240 of 266 ends

Finding: Considerable Contribution and Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.3.6, pages 5.3-42 through 5.3-43)
Explanation: Construction of the growth anticipated by the General Plan Update has the potential to temporarily emit criteria air pollutant emissions through the use of heavy-duty construction equipment, and through vehicle trips generated by workers and haul trucks. In addition, fugitive dust emissions would result from demolition and various soil-handling activities. Mobile source emissions, primarily NOx and PM emissions (i.e., PM10 and PM2.5), would result from the use of diesel-powered on- and off-road vehicles and equipment. Construction emissions can vary substantially from day-to-day, depending on the level of activity and the specific type of construction activity. As shown in Table 5.3-4 in Section 5.3 of the Draft EIR, construction-related daily emissions would exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds for VOCs. Additionally, as shown in Table 5.3-5 in Section 5.3 of the Draft EIR, potential operational emissions for the proposed Project would also exceed regulatory thresholds (for VOC, NOx, CO, PM10, and PM2.5). Feasible mitigation measures are incorporated into the policies and actions included within the General Plan Update. However, there are no feasible criteria air pollutant reduction measures beyond those identified within the policies and actions identified, that would reduce impacts. While implementation of these policies and actions would reduce criteria pollutant emissions, the extent to which the impacts would be generated by future development and infrastructure projects have to be determined on a project-by-project basis, as necessary.

Moreover, with respect to local air quality emissions, toxic air contaminant emissions, and health impacts, future development under the General Plan Update would be required to comply with AQMP, SIP, CARB, SCAQMD regulations, Title 24 energy efficiency standards, and the proposed General Plan Update policies and actions. Implementation of the policies and actions listed above would mitigate and reduce such emissions. However, as there is no way to determine the extent to which these regulations would be, or need to be, implemented, it is impossible to determine if potential impacts would be reduced to below regulatory thresholds because the details and potential emissions levels of future development projects is not known at this time, as there are no specific development projects proposed as part of the General Plan Update. Additionally, there are no feasible mitigation measures beyond the policies and actions listed above. Therefore, localized operational impacts, construction and operational health and toxic air impacts would remain significant and unavoidable.

Lastly, with respect to other emissions, future development under the General Plan Update would be required to comply with AQMP, SIP, CARB, SCAQMD regulations, Title 24 energy efficiency standards, and the proposed General Plan Update policies and actions. However, as there is no

way to determine the extent to which these regulations would be, or need to be, implemented, it is impossible to determine if potential impacts would be reduced to below regulatory thresholds. There are no feasible mitigation measures except for those listed in above. Based on these impacts, the General Plan Update would contribute to a cumulative impact with regard to air quality in the region and within the air basin (i.e. the South Coast Air Basin) as a whole. Therefore, this impact is considered a cumulatively considerable and significant and unavoidable impact.

D. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to biological resources? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.4.6, pages 5.4- 42 through 5.4-43)
Explanation: Cumulative development anticipated throughout Riverside County would result in impacts to biological resources, including the permanent loss of habitat for special status species, corridor fragmentation, direct and indirect impacts to special status species, and reduction and degradation of sensitive habitat. Biological resources are a limited resource and the cumulative loss is considered significant. Subsequent projects implemented under the General Plan Update would be required to be consistent with the proposed General Plan policies and actions. The implementation of an individual project would require site-specific review to determine the presence or absence of movement corridors, special-status species, and sensitive habitat on a given project site. If movement corridors, special-status species, or sensitive habitat are present and disturbance is required, federal and State laws require measures to reduce, avoid, or compensate for impacts to these resources. Additionally, the implementation of the Western Riverside County MSHCP for future implementing projects consistent with the General Plan Update at a project-specific level would minimize direct, indirect, and cumulative biological impacts. Compliance with the provisions of the MSHCP fully mitigate impacts to covered species and habitats. An impact is not considered cumulatively considerable if a project is required to implement or fund its fair share of mitigation measures designed to alleviate a cumulative impact (CEQA Guidelines Section 15130 (a)(3)). Compliance with the MSHCP, as well as the polices and mitigation measures identified in Section 5.4.3 of the Draft EIR and State and federal regulations governing biological resources, will result in less than cumulatively considerable impacts. Therefore, the General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to this cumulative impact would be less than cumulatively considerable.

E. CULTURAL RESOURCES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to cultural resources? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.5.6, pages 5.5- 30 through 5.5-31)
Explanation: Construction of individual development projects allowed under the land use designations of General Plan Update may result in the discovery and removal of cultural resources, including historic and archaeological resources, as well as the inadvertent discovery of human remains. The General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as federal, State, and local regulations, would reduce the risk to resources in the region. Adherence to the General Plan Update policies and actions, and existing federal, State, and local regulations would avoid and/or minimize a cumulative loss of these important resources if they are identified during project-specific surveys or construction activities. Therefore, the General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to cumulative cultural resource impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

F. ENERGY
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to energy? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.6.6, page 5.6- 14)
Explanation: As future development projects are received and reviewed by the City in subsequent years, those projects would be reviewed for consistency with the General Plan Update and all relevant State-level programs and requirements. All future projects must implement the most current version of the Title 24 energy efficiency requirements, as required by State law.

Consistency with the General Plan Update and other mandatory State-level programs would ensure that future project-level contributions to inefficient, wasteful or unnecessary energy use would be less than significant.

Moreover, buildout of the General Plan Update would not be expected cause an inefficient, wasteful, or unnecessary use of energy resources nor conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency. As a result, the proposed General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to cumulative energy impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

G. GEOLOGY AND SOILS
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to geologic resources? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.7.6, pages 5.7- 35 through 5.7-36)
Explanation: Seismic, geologic, and soil conditions within the City of San Jacinto would vary by location and site-specific suitability for development would not be uniform. Geologic and seismic hazards would be reduced to less than significant levels following conformance with the established regulatory framework (i.e., CBC and Municipal Code requirements). If determined necessary, project-specific mitigation would be incorporated to reduce cumulative seismic, geologic, and soil impacts to a less than significant level. If a specific site were determined to create a significant impact that could not be feasibly mitigated, the site would not be appropriate for development. These processes, along with compliance with federal and State laws, local building codes, and public safety standards, would result in less than significant cumulative impacts related to potential seismic, geologic, and soil hazards. As a result, implementation of the General Plan Update would not result in cumulatively considerable impacts involving seismic and geologic hazards
H. GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions?
Finding: Considerable Contribution and Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.8.6, page 5.8-41)
Explanation: The topic of GHG emissions is inherently a cumulative impact. Though significance thresholds can be developed by air districts, as well as State and federal regulatory agencies, these thresholds and their related goals are ultimately designed to effect change at a global level. As demonstrated in the analysis in Section 5.8.5 of the Draft EIR, the proposed Project is not consistent with WRCOG’s plan to reduce GHG emissions below a specific threshold and would therefore have a significant and unavoidable impact even with the implementation of General Plan Update goals, policies and actions.

I. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to hazardous materials?

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1122 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 244 of 266 ends

Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.9.6, page 5.9- 42)
Explanation: Construction of individual development projects allowed under the land use designations of the General Plan Update may involve the transportation, use, and/or disposal of hazardous materials, which may involve the use of equipment that contains hazardous materials (e.g., solvents and fuels or diesel-fueled equipment), or the transportation of excavated soil and/or groundwater containing contaminants from areas that are identified as being contaminated. Furthermore, because of the regional nature of the General Plan Update, some future land uses could transport or use hazardous materials within one-quarter mile of a school, or other sensitive receptors such as hospitals and residences. As with specific projects resulting from implementation of the General Plan Update, cumulative development would be required to evaluate individual hazards and hazardous materials impacts at the project-level. While some cumulative impacts would potentially occur in the region as individual projects are constructed, the General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as local, State, and federal regulations would reduce the risk to people associated with hazards and hazardous materials in the region. Considering the protection granted by local, State, and federal agencies and their requirements for the use of hazardous materials and other potential hazards in the region, as described above, the overall cumulative impact for hazards impacts would not be significant. As a result, the General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to cumulative hazards and hazardous materials impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

J. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to hydrologic resources?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.10-6, pages

5.10-36 through 5.10-37)
Explanation: The General Plan Update does not propose site-specific development and would not significantly impact drainage courses and hydrologic flows throughout the City. Construction of the individual development projects allowed under the land use designations of the proposed General Plan Update has the potential to result in construction-related water quality impacts and operational-related impacts to groundwater recharge, and cause flooding, erosion, or siltation from the alteration of drainage patterns.

Individual projects would be evaluated on a project-by-project basis to ensure compliance with the General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as federal, State, and local regulations to reduce hydrology and water quality impacts. Subsequent development projects under the General Plan

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1123 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 245 of 266 ends

Update would result in new impervious surfaces and could reduce rainwater infiltration and groundwater recharge; however, the General Plan Update would not appreciably add to the volume of imperious surfaces in the Study Area. As individual projects are constructed, the General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as federal, State, and local regulations, would substantially reduce potential cumulative impacts. Considering the protection granted by local, State, and federal agencies and their permit and monitoring requirements, as discussed above, and with implementation of the policies and actions included within the General Plan Update, the overall cumulative impact would not be significant. As a result, the General Plan Update's incremental contribution to cumulative hydrology impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

K. LAND USE AND PLANNING
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to land use and population?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.11.5, pages

5.11-29 through 5.11-30)
Explanation: Development of cumulative projects in the City of San Jacinto would be required to mitigate land use impacts on a project-by-project basis. Each project would be evaluated for consistency with the project site’s General Plan land use designation and zoning, adopted General Plan goals, policies, and actions, and other applicable regional land use plans, such as SCAG’s RTP/SCS. As analyzed in Section 5.11.4 of the Draft EIR, the proposed General Plan Update would result in less than significant impact related to land use and relevant planning. Therefore, the incremental impact of the proposed Project, when considered in combination with development within the City and region, would not result in cumulatively considerable land use impacts.

The land uses allowed under the proposed General Plan Update provide opportunities for cohesive new growth at infill locations within existing urbanized areas, as well as new growth adjacent to existing urbanized areas within the Study Area, but would not create physical division within existing communities. New development and redevelopment projects would be designed to complement the character of existing neighborhoods and provide connectivity between existing development and new development within the cumulative analysis area. The proposed General Plan Update does not include any new roadways, infrastructure, or other features that would divide existing communities. Moreover, with implementation of General Plan Update policies and actions intended to guide growth to appropriate areas and provide services necessary to accommodate growth, the land uses allowed under the proposed General Plan Update, the

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1124 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 246 of 266 ends

infrastructure anticipated to accommodate proposed land uses, and the goal and policy framework would not induce growth that would exceed adopted thresholds. Therefore, the proposed General Plan Update's incremental contribution to cumulative land use and population impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

L. MINERAL RESOURCES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to mineral resources? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.12.5, page

5.12-4)
Explanation: The majority of land within the Study Area is designated as MRZ-3, land for which the significance of mineral resources cannot be determined, or MRZ-4, areas where available information is inadequate for assignment to any other MRZ classification. Neither of these MRZ categories are considered significant mineral resources. The Study Area does not possess any mineral resource recovery sites. Therefore, implementation of the General Plan Update would not contribute to a cumulative impact related to mineral resources.

M. NOISE
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to noise?
Finding: Considerable Contribution and Significant and Unavoidable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.13.6, pages 5.13-47 through 5.13-49)
Explanation: Table 5.13-14 in the Draft EIR shows that cumulative conditions would contribute to an exceedance of the City’s transportation noise standards and would result in significant increases in traffic noise levels at existing sensitive receptors. The General Plan Update includes policies and actions to minimized exposure to excessive noise, including noise associated with traffic. General Plan Policies PS-6.1 through PS-6.10, and Actions PS-6a through PS-6i, are intended to minimize exposure to excessive noise, including noise associated with traffic. Specifically, Policies PS-6.1 and PS6.2 support noise-compatible land uses in the vicinity of traffic noise sources and require that new development and infrastructure projects be reviewed for consistency with the noise standards established in Tables PS1 and PS-2. Policy PS-6.2 and Actions PS-6b would ensure that new development mitigates potential noise impacts through incorporating the noise control treatments necessary to achieve acceptable noise levels. Policy PS-6.3 sets criteria for evaluating future increases in traffic noise levels.

However, growth and development anticipated by the General Plan Update

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1125 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 247 of 266 ends

would result in increased traffic on roadways within the Study Area, which would cause an increase in traffic noise when compared to existing conditions. The associated increase in traffic noise would impact existing uses that occur within the Study Area. Even with the implementation of General Plan Update policies and actions, the proposed General Plan would have a cumulatively considerable impact relative to traffic noise.

Implementation of land use planning and policies and actions can minimize cumulative noise impacts related to stationary sources by avoiding the placement of noise generating equipment near noise-sensitive land uses and where unavoidable, include design measures to the degree practicable to avoid violating the noise criteria presented in the General Plan Update Public Safety Element Tables PS-3 and PS-4. The General Plan Update also includes policies and actions that are intended to reduce noise associated with stationary sources. Policy PS-6.2 and Action PS-6b require new development to mitigate excessive noise to the standards indicated in Tables PS-1, PS-2, PS-3, and PS-4 through best practices, including building location and orientation, building design features, placement of noisegenerating equipment away from sensitive receptors, shielding of noisegenerating equipment, placement of noise-tolerant features between noise sources and sensitive receptors, and use of noise-minimizing materials.

Implementation of the proposed policies and actions of the General Plan Update would reduce cumulative noise impacts from stationary noise sources to a less than significant level.

Short-term construction noise and vibration is a localized activity and would affect only land uses that are immediately adjacent to a specific project site.

Each construction project would have to comply with the local noise ordinance and General Plan Update policies and actions, including Action PS-6e which requires all construction activity to reduce impacts associated with temporary construction noise to the extent feasible and Action PS-6h, which requires vibration studies for projects that have the potential to generate vibration impacts which exceeds the vibration limits. Additionally, projects would comply with mitigation measures that may be prescribed pursuant to CEQA provisions that require significant impacts to be reduced to the extent feasible. In addition, it is unlikely that all construction projects would occur simultaneously within the City. Thus, a less than significant impact would occur.

N. POPULATION AND HOUSING
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to population and housing? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.14.6, pages

5.14-11 through 5.14-12)

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1126 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 248 of 266 ends

Explanation: The land uses allowed under the proposed General Plan Update provide opportunities for cohesive new growth in key locations in the Study Area, but would not create physical division within existing communities. New development and redevelopment projects would be designed to complement the character of existing neighborhoods and provide connectivity between existing development and new development within the cumulative analysis area. The proposed General Plan Update does not include any new roadways, infrastructure, or other features that would divide existing communities. Moreover, with implementation of General Plan Update policies and actions intended to guide growth to appropriate areas and provide services necessary to accommodate growth, the land uses allowed under the proposed General Plan Update, the infrastructure anticipated to accommodate proposed land uses, and the goal and policy framework would not induce growth that would exceed adopted thresholds. Lastly, General Plan Update implementation would not displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere Therefore, the proposed General Plan Update's incremental contribution to cumulative land use and population impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

O. PUBLIC SERVICES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to public services? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.15.5, pages

5.15-30 through 5.15-31)
Explanation: 2040 buildout under the General Plan Update could yield a net change over existing conditions of an additional 16,252 housing units, an additional population of 54,280 people, an additional 21,839,634 square feet of nonresidential building square footage, and an additional 19,674 jobs within the Study Area. Development and growth facilitated by the General Plan Update would result in increased demand for public services, including fire protection, law enforcement, schools, parks, libraries, and other public and governmental services. As the demand for public services and recreation increases throughout the 2040 buildout, there will likely be a need to address acceptable service ratios, response times, and other performance standards.

New or expanded service structures (e.g., offices, maintenance and administrative buildings, schools, parks, fire facilities, libraries, etc.) may be needed to provide for adequate staffing, equipment, and appropriate facilities to serve growth within the cumulative analysis area. The General Plan Update includes a range of policies and actions that would ensure that public services are provided in a timely fashion, are adequately funded and staffed, are coordinated between the City and appropriate service agency, and that new development funds its fair share of services. The General Plan Update includes policies to ensure that fire protection and law enforcement

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1127 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 249 of 266 ends

services keep pace with new development and that school, library, and governmental services are adequately planned and provided. Payment of applicable impact fees, and ongoing revenues that would come from property taxes, sales taxes, and other revenues generated by the future projects, would ensure that the City maintains acceptable service ratios. The proposed General Plan Update's incremental contribution to cumulative public services and recreation impacts would be less than significant.

P. RECREATION
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to recreation?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.16.5, page

5.16-17)
Explanation: As discussed in Section 5.16.4 of the Draft EIR, the total parkland demand associated with future development is 535.76 acres. The General Plan Update proposes a total of 175 acres designated as Parks and 6,188 acres designated as Open Space to accommodate for the population increase. The General Plan Update includes policies and actions to ensure that public services are provided at acceptable levels and to ensure that development and growth does not outpace the provision of public services. With adherence to and compliance with the General Plan Update policies and actions, in addition to adherence to local and environmental regulations, the impact to recreational and park facilities is considered less than significant.

The significance of impacts to recreational and park facilities resulting from specific future development would be evaluated on a project-by-project basis. If future project-level impacts are identified, specific mitigation measures may be required by CEQA. Therefore, adverse physical impacts to the environment as a result of newly constructed parks and recreational facilities associated with implementation of the General Plan Update is considered to be less than significant.

Q. TRANSPORTATION
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to transportation?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.17.6, page

5.17-29
Explanation: As described in the Draft EIR, Section 5.17.5, Impact TR-1, the Mobility Element developed as part of the General Plan Update contains several policies that support access to and the performance of transit, bicycle, and

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1128 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

pedestrian facilities. The proposed Mobility Element contains Goal M-4 which supports an extensive and regionally linked network of trails, bicycle lanes, and sidewalk paths that encourage active transportation, such as walking and bicycling, as viable for transportation and recreation. The Mobility Element Policy M-2.4 promotes public transportation programs that effectively serve the City’s residents and workers by connecting users to local and regional destinations, including jobs, recreation, retail and other activity centers.

As described in the Draft EIR, Section 5.17.5, Impact TR-2, the residential and commuter VMT under the previous General Plan and the proposed General Plan Update for the City of San Jacinto are shown in Table 5.17-3.

As shown in Table 5.17-3, the General Plan Update is not expected to increase VMT per person above the current General Plan/No Project conditions. In fact, home-based VMT per resident, work-based VMT per employee, and total VMT per service population are expected to under the proposed General Plan Update. Part of this reduction could be attributed to the increasingly balanced mix of residential and employment opportunities within the City. The Land Use and Mobility elements developed as part of the General Plan Update includes policies to support the reduction of VMT, including increasing the balanced mix of residential and employment opportunities within the City with the proposed land uses. Therefore, the proposed General Plan Update is not expected to increase VMT per person above No Project conditions. Therefore, the VMT-related impacts of the General Plan Update would be considered less than significant.

As described in the Draft EIR, Section 5.17.5, Impact TR-3, the types of uses included as part of the General Plan Update are generally similar to existing and surrounding uses and thereby are compatible with the existing uses in the Study Area and in the surrounding area. In addition, the Mobility Element developed as part of the General Plan Update contains policies in support of roadway network safety and reducing design hazards.

Additionally, as described under Impact TR-4, as part of the site plan and design review process (SJDC Chapter 17.630), future development projects would be reviewed for adequate access as well as consistency with adopted emergency and evacuation plans among many other environmental issues in order to ensure the safety of City residents and the physical environment.

In addition, the Safety and Mobility Elements developed as part of the General Plan Update contains policies in support of emergency access along local roads.

Overall, implementation of the General Plan Update would not result in cumulatively considerable transportation impacts with implementation of the proposed General Plan Update goals and policies. Impacts would be less than significant in this regard.

R. TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to tribal cultural resources?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.18.6, page

5.18-14)
Explanation: Construction of the individual development projects allowed under the land use designations of General Plan Update may result in the discovery and removal of tribal cultural resources. The General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as federal, State, and local regulations, would reduce the risk to tribal cultural resources in the region. As discussed above, sitespecific development with the potential to impact tribal cultural resources would require a resource assessment and coordination with the tribes to determine the potential for tribal cultural resources and identification of mitigation measures to reduce potential impacts associated with the proposed development. Adherence to the General Plan Update policies and actions, and existing federal, State and local regulations would avoid and/or minimize a cumulative loss of tribal cultural resources. Therefore, the General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to cumulative tribal cultural resource impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

S. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update and cumulative development result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to utilities and service systems?
Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.19.6, pages

5.19-54 through 5.19-56)
Explanation: Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for water, wastewater, stormwater, solid waste, electrical, natural gas, and telecommunications services within the Study Area.

Water
Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for water services within the City of San Jacinto Water District, EMWD, and/or LHMWD service area. All three water service providers in the Study Area have concluded in their respective UWMPs that they would be able to meet projected future water demands under normal, dry, and multiple dry water years. Future development projects accommodated through implementation of the General Plan Update

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1130 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 252 of 266 ends

would be evaluated by the City on a project-by-project basis to determine potential impacts to water supplies and infrastructure. The continued assessment of individual projects for impacts to the water supply system would assure projects would only be approved if adequate water supplies exist at the time of their implementation. All future development would be subject to all applicable federal, State, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations in place for water supply and infrastructure. Further, new development would be required to pay all applicable connection fees and ongoing user fees related to the provision of water services. Therefore, implementation of the General Plan Update would not result in cumulatively considerable water supply and infrastructure impacts.

Wastewater
Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for wastewater services within the sewer service area. As discussed above, the total amount of projected wastewater flow to EMWD’s San Jacinto Valley RWRF, where San Jacinto sewer water is treated and/or disposed of, for the year 2040 would be approximately 16.4 MGD. The current capacity for the San Jacinto Valley RWRF is 14 MGD and the maximum capacity for the treatment facility is 27 MGD. Therefore, the ultimate capacity of the facility would be able to meet the projected wastewater production from the City of San Jacinto. The General Plan Update does not include specific development proposals; individual development projects would be required to verify that existing capacity exists to convey and treat the potential wastewater generated with the new development. At the time future wastewater facilities are proposed, they would require a separate environmental review and compliance with regulations in existence at that time would address potential environmental impacts related to the construction and operation of new wastewater facilities. Additionally, the General Plan Update includes goals, policies, and actions to ensure adequate wastewater services and facilities. Therefore, cumulative impacts to wastewater services and facilities would be less than significant.

Stormwater
Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for stormwater services within the Study Area. As discussed above, the General Plan Update does not include specific development proposals; therefore, the environmental effects of future storm water drainage facilities are unknown at this time. At the time future stormwater facilities are proposed, they would require a separate environmental review and compliance with regulations in existence at that time would address potential environmental impacts related to the construction and operation of new stormwater facilities. Additionally, the General Plan Update includes goals, policies, and actions to ensure adequate

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1131 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 253 of 266 ends

stormwater service and facilities. Therefore, cumulative impacts to stormwater services and facilities would be less than significant.

Solid Waste
Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for solid waste collection and disposal services. San Jacinto, along with cities and County lands in the surrounding area, would continue to use common landfill resources, thereby gradually reducing the capacity of local landfills. The General Plan Update does not include specific development proposals; however, the increase in solid waste generation due to future individual and cumulative development projects together could significantly impact solid waste resources.

Individual development projects and related cumulative projects would be required to meet current recycling goals, reducing the amount of solid waste requiring disposal at landfills. Future developments would be reviewed on a project-by-project basis and solid waste impacts would be evaluated based on existing and planned disposal facilities and capacities available at that time. In addition, all future development would be required to comply with the mandatory commercial and multifamily recycling requirements of AB 341, thus reducing the amount of landfill waste. Furthermore, the General Plan Update goals, policies, and actions would reduce the demand for solid waste disposal. Therefore, the contribution of the General Plan Update to cumulative impacts associated with increased solid waste would be less than significant.

Electric Power, Natural Gas, and Telecommunications
Implementation of the General Plan Update along with other cumulative projects would increase demand for electrical, natural gas, and telecommunications services within the Study Area. As noted above, the General Plan Update does not include specific development proposals; individual development projects would be required to verify that electric power, natural gas, and telecommunications usage generated with the new development would not create significant environmental impacts.

Therefore, the contribution of the General Plan Update to cumulative impacts associated with increased electric power, natural gas, and telecommunications would be less than significant.

T. WILDFIRE
Threshold: Would future development associated with the General Plan Update result in cumulatively considerable impacts related to wildfire? Finding: Less than Cumulatively Considerable. (Draft EIR, Section 5.20.5, page

5.20-25 through 5.20-26)

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1132 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 254 of 266 ends

Explanation: The General Plan Update ensures that the City’s emergency access routes and public information regarding designated emergency facilities and routes are regularly reviewed to ensure that up to date information is available to the City and the public in the event of an emergency. Important new and expanded critical facilities would also be located in a way to ensure resiliency and functionality in the event of a natural disaster.

Implementation of the General Plan Update would have a less than significant impact with regard to this issue. No specific aspect as a result of implementation of the General Plan Update will substantially alter the slope, prevailing winds, or other factors that would increase exposure to San Jacinto residents, employees or visitors to increased pollutant concentrations from wildfire or result in the uncontrollable spread of a wildfire. General Plan Update implementation would not exacerbate wildfire risks in VHFHSZs; therefore, these impacts would be less than significant. The General Plan Update is a long-range policy document that does not include site-specific designs or plans, and does not propose any entitlements for specific developments. However, future development may require extension and development of infrastructure such as roads, water and sewer utilities, and fuel breaks into areas designated as FHSZs. The potential for future projects to impact environmental resources are mitigated through compliance with fire development standards (such as fuel breaks and clearance requirements) and would require site-specific environmental analysis as required under CEQA. As demonstrated throughout this EIR, implementation of the various policies and actions contained in the General Plan Update would reduce potential impacts associated with the construction and expansion of infrastructure. Implementation of the General Plan Update policies and actions combined with local and State requirements, as detailed previously, would ensure that potential wildland fire hazards would not be exacerbated by new local infrastructure, and this impact would be considered less than significant. While the General Plan Update cannot state with certainty that future risks associated with post-fire flooding and debris flow would not occur in the Study Area, implementation of the General Plan Update would not exacerbate this risk. Implementation of General Plan Update policies and actions, as well as compliance with the City’s Municipal Code, would reduce this risk to the greatest extent feasible, resulting in an impact that is less than significant as a result of adoption and implementation of the proposed General Plan Update. Implementation of the goals and policies provided would ensure that the proposed General Plan Update’s incremental contribution to cumulative wildfire impacts would be less than cumulatively considerable.

SECTION VI

FINDINGS REGARDING SIGNIFICANT IRREVERSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL

CHANGES
Sections 15126(c) and 15126.2(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines, require that an EIR address any significant irreversible environmental changes that would occur should the project be implemented. Generally, a project would result in significant irreversible environmental changes if any of the following would occur:
 The project would involve a large commitment of non-renewable resources;  The primary and secondary impacts of the project would generally commit future generations to similar uses;
 The project involves uses in which irreversible damage could result from any potential environmental accidents; or
 The proposed consumption of resources is not justified.

Consumption of Nonrenewable Resources
Future development would consume limited, slowly renewable and non-renewable resources. This consumption would occur during each individual project’s construction phase and would continue throughout its operational lifetime. Future development would require a commitment of resources that would include: (1) building materials; (2) fuel and operational materials/resources; and (3) the transportation of goods and persons to and from individual development sites. Construction would require the consumption of resources that are not renewable or which may renew so slowly as to be considered non-renewable. These resources would include the following construction supplies: lumber and other forest products; aggregate materials used in concrete and asphalt; metals; and water. Fossil fuels such as gasoline and oil would also be consumed to power construction vehicles and equipment.

Development accommodated through implementation of the General Plan Update would consume resources which would be similar to those currently consumed within the City (i.e., energy resources such as electricity and natural gas, petroleum-based fuels required for vehicletrips, fossil fuels, and water). Fossil fuels would represent the primary energy source associated with both construction and ongoing operation, and the existing, finite supplies of these natural resources would be incrementally reduced. Future development operations would occur in accordance with California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 24, Part 6, which sets forth conservation practices that would limit energy consumption. Nonetheless, the proposed Project’s energy requirements would represent a long-term commitment of essentially non-renewable resources.

Construction activities associated with implementation of the General Plan Update could release hazardous materials into the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions; refer to Section 5.9 in the Draft EIR. All potential demolition, grading, and excavation activities would be subject to the established regulatory framework to ensure that

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1134 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 256 of 266 ends

hazardous materials are not released into the environment. Compliance with the established regulatory framework and mitigation measures would protect against a significant and irreversible environmental change resulting from the accidental release of hazardous materials. In addition, there is the potential that individual future development projects would use and store limited amounts of potentially hazardous materials typical. All future development activities requiring the routine use, storage, transport, or disposal of hazardous materials would be subject to all applicable Federal, State, and local regulations and standards in place for hazardous materials. Compliance with these regulations and standards would protect against significant and irreversible environmental changes due to the accidental release of hazardous materials.

In conclusion, future construction and operations would result in the irretrievable commitment of limited, slowly renewable, and nonrenewable resources, which would limit the availability of these resource quantities for future generations or for other uses during the life of the individual developments. It is noted that the continued use of such resources would be on a relatively small scale in a regional context.

Irretrievable Commitments/Irreversible Physical Changes Implementation of the General Plan Update would result in a commitment of land uses designated for the foreseeable future. Land use and development consistent with the General Plan Update would result in irretrievable commitments by introducing development onto sites that are presently undeveloped. The conversion of agricultural lands to urban uses would result in an irretrievable loss of agricultural land, wildlife habitat, and open space. Additionally, development would physically change the environment in terms of aesthetics, air emission, noise, traffic, open space, and natural resources. These physical changes are irreversible after development occurs.

Therefore, the General Plan Update would result in changes in land use within the Study Area that would commit future generations to these uses.

In summary, the General Plan Update includes an extensive policy framework that is designed to address land use and environmental issues to the greatest extent feasible, while allowing growth and economic prosperity for the City. However, even with the policies and actions that would serve to reduce potential significant impacts, future development associated with implementation of the General Plan Update would result in significant irreversible changes. This impact is considered a significant and unavoidable impact under CEQA.

SECTION VII

GROWTH-INDUCING IMPACTS
Section 15126.2(d) of the State CEQA Guidelines requires a Draft EIR to discuss the ways the Project could foster economic or population growth or the construction of additional housing, directly or indirectly, in the surrounding environment. In accordance with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.2(d), a Project would be considered to have a growth-inducing effect if it would:
 Directly or indirectly foster economic or population growth, or the construction of additional housing in the surrounding environment;
 Remove obstacles to population growth (e.g., construction of an infrastructure expansion to allow for more construction in service areas);  Tax existing community service facilities, requiring the construction of new facilities that could cause significant environmental effects; or
 Encourage and facilitate other activities that could significantly affect the environment, either individually or cumulatively.

In addition, CEQA Guidelines state that growth inducement must not be assumed.

The General Plan Update accommodates future growth in San Jacinto, including new businesses, expansion of existing businesses, and new residential uses. Infrastructure and services would need to accommodate future growth. The General Plan Update is oriented toward the economic growth of the City, with emphasis given to encouraging development of a broader array of businesses, increasing local employment opportunities, and providing residential development as necessary to serve economic growth. The cumulative development scenario addressed in this Draft EIR assumes a 20-year planning horizon (the level of development that could reasonably be expected by the year 2040), while the year 2060 is assumed to be the full buildout year of the General Plan (the point at which all parcels in the City are developed according to their General Plan land use designation). The 20-year planning horizon (2040) represents approximately 50 percent of total buildout; this expected pace of growth is based on historical development patterns in and around San Jacinto and development trends projected for Western Riverside County.

As shown in Table 3-5 of the Draft EIR, buildout of the General Plan Update through 2040 could yield up to 16,252 new housing units and 21,839,634 square feet of new non-residential building square footage within the Study Area.

With implementation of General Plan Update policies and actions intended to guide growth to appropriate areas and provide services necessary to accommodate growth, the land uses allowed under the General Plan Update, the infrastructure anticipated to accommodate proposed land uses, and the goal and policy framework would not induce growth that would exceed adopted thresholds.

Therefore, population and housing growth associated with the General Plan Update would result a less than significant impact.

SECTION VIII

ALTERNATIVES
A. BACKGROUND
The Draft EIR analyzed three alternatives to the Project as proposed and evaluated these alternatives for their ability to avoid or reduce the Project’s significant environmental effects while also meeting the majority of the Project’s objectives. The City finds that it has considered and rejected as infeasible two of the three alternatives identified in the EIR and described below. This section sets forth the potential alternatives to the Project analyzed in the EIR and evaluates them in light of the Project objectives, as required by CEQA.

Where significant impacts are identified, section 15126.6 of the State CEQA Guidelines requires EIRs to consider and discuss alternatives to the proposed actions. Subsection (a) states:
(a) An EIR shall describe a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project, and evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives. An EIR need not consider every conceivable alternative to a project. Rather it must consider a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives that will foster informed decision-making and public participation. An EIR is not required to consider alternatives which are infeasible. The lead agency is responsible for selecting a range of project alternatives for examination and must publicly disclose its reasoning for selecting those alternatives. There is no ironclad rule governing the nature or scope of the alternatives to be discussed other than the rule of reason.

Subsection 15126.6(b) states the purpose of the alternatives analysis:
(b) Because an EIR must identify ways to mitigate or avoid the significant effects that a project may have on the environment (Public Resources Code Section 21002.1), the discussion of alternatives shall focus on alternatives to the project or its location which are capable of avoiding or substantially lessening any significant effects of the project, even if these alternatives would impede to some degree the attainment of the project objectives, or would be more costly.

In subsection 15126.6(c), the State CEQA Guidelines describe the selection process for a range of reasonable alternatives:
(c) The range of potential alternatives to the proposed project shall include those that could feasibly accomplish most of the basic objectives of the Project and could avoid or substantially lessen one or more of the significant effects. The EIR should briefly describe the rationale for selecting the alternatives to be discussed. The EIR should also identify any alternatives that were considered by the lead agency but were rejected as infeasible during the scoping process

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1137 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 259 of 266 ends

and briefly explain the reasons underlying the lead agency’s determination.

Additional information explaining the choice of alternatives may be included in the administrative record. Among the factors that may be used to eliminate alternatives from detailed consideration in an EIR are: (i) failure to meet most of the basic project objectives, (ii) infeasibility, or (iii) inability to avoid significant environmental impacts.

The range of alternatives required is governed by a “rule of reason” that requires the EIR to set forth only those alternatives necessary to permit a reasoned choice. The EIR shall include sufficient information about each alternative to allow meaningful evaluation, analysis, and comparison with the proposed Project. Alternatives are limited to ones that would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the Project. Of those alternatives, the EIR need examine in detail only the ones that the lead agency determines could feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the Project.

B. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The following objectives have been established for the Project (Draft EIR, page 3-4):

1. Reflect the current goals and vision expressed by city residents, businesses, decisionmakers, and other stakeholders;

2. Protect and enhance San Jacinto’s unique history and character;

3. Promote San Jacinto as a safe, vibrant, and family-friendly community;

4. Proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner;

5. Encourage the revitalization of San Jacinto’s Main Street and other community activity centers;

6. Allow for a range of housing options;

7. Attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents;

8. Create a more balanced jobs-housing ratio within the community;

9. Continue to maintain and improve multimodal transportation opportunities;

10. Maintain strong fiscal sustainability and continue to provide efficient and adequate public services;

11. Address new requirements of State law; and

12. Address emerging transportation, housing, and employment trends.

C. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED BUT REJECTED FROM DETAILED

ANALYSIS
Section 15126.6(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines specifies that an EIR should (1) identify alternatives that were considered by the lead agency but were eliminated from detailed consideration because they were determined to be infeasible during the scoping process; and (2) briefly explain the reasons underlying the lead agency’s determination. Among the factors that may be used to eliminate alternatives from detailed consideration in an EIR are: (i) failure to meet most of the basic project objectives; (ii) infeasibility; and/or (iii) inability to avoid significant environmental impacts.

There were no alternatives considered but rejected from detailed analysis in the EIR.

D. EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES SELECTED FOR ANALYSIS
The alternatives selected for further detailed review within the EIR focus on alternatives that could potentially reduce the Project’s significant environmental impacts, while still meeting most of the basic Project objectives. Those alternatives include:
 Alternative 1: No Project Alternative (Draft EIR, pages 7-6 through 7-15)  Alternative 2: Reduced Growth Alternative (Draft EIR, pages 7-15 through 7- 23)
 Alternative 3: Employment Focused Alternative (Draft EIR, pages 7-23 through 7-32)

1. Alternative 1: No Project Alternative
Description: Under Alternative 1, the City would continue to implement the existing General Plan and no changes would be made to address updated OPR General Plan Guidelines, or the requirements of State law. Since adoption of the existing General Plan, State legislation has been passed requiring the City to address new safety and circulation requirements in the General Plan and to further address greenhouse gas emissions.

Additionally, the City recently updated its Housing Element (adopted in February 2022), and the existing General Plan does not conform to State requirements regarding planning for future housing growth. The General Plan goals, policies, and actions, as well as the Land Use Map, would not be updated to address the vision and concerns of the City’s residents, property owners, decision-makers, and other stakeholders that actively participated in the visioning and goal and policy development process.

Alternative 1 would result in the continuation of existing conditions and development levels. New growth would be allowed as envisioned under the existing General Plan, with land uses required to be consistent with the existing General Plan Land Use Map.

Alternative 1 (No Project Alternative) would result in significantly less development within the City compared to the proposed Project. Under Alternative 1, the existing General Plan policy framework would still be in effect, which would constitute a status quo approach to land use regulation in the City. The Proposed Land Use Map, along with the policy framework proposed by the General Plan Update, encourages and aims to achieve a community with a balanced land use pattern that meets the City’s long-term housing, employment, and civic needs. The land uses allowed under the General Plan Update would provide opportunities for cohesive new growth at in-fill locations within existing urbanized areas of the City, as well as new growth adjacent to existing urbanized areas and along transportation corridors. A mix and balance of uses to provide an improved ratio of local jobs to population, would ensure that development pays its fair-share of necessary roadway, public service, and other infrastructure improvements, and that increased protection of natural resources would occur. The proposed General Plan Update was prepared in conformance with State laws and regulations associated with the preparation of general plans, including requirements for environmental protection.

Alternative 1 would not include updated policies, particularly those related to housing,

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1139 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 261 of 266 ends

greenhouse gases, hazards, complete streets, and environmental justice to address environmental health concerns for disadvantaged communities, as required by State law.

This alternative would not include policies proposed in the General Plan Update to ensure protection of environmental resources, both at a project level and under cumulative conditions, consistent with the objectives of CEQA.

Impacts: As shown in Draft EIR Table 7-5, Alternative 1 would result in the same impacts as the proposed project for the environmental issues of: Agricultural Resources, Hydrology and Water Quality, and Mineral Resources. Alternative 1 would result in reduced impacts to Air Quality, Energy, Noise, Public Services and Recreation, Utilities and Service Systems, and Irreversible Effects. Alternative 1 would result in increased impacts to Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Land Use and Planning, Population and Housing, Transportation, Tribal Cultural Resources, and Wildfire. This alternative would fail to reduce any significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level.

Additionally, this alternative would have a new significant and unavoidable impact in regards to Population and Housing, since it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

Attainment of Project Objectives: This alternative would not meet most of the project objectives, including the following: reflect the current goals and vision expressed by City residents, businesses, decision-makers, and other stakeholders; proactively plan for and accommodate local and regional growth in a responsible manner; encourage the revitalization of San Jacinto’s Main Street and other community activity centers; allow for a range of housing options; attract and retain businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents; continue to maintain and improve multimodal transportation opportunities; address new requirements of State law; and address emerging transportation, housing, and employment trends.

Finding: The City Council rejects Alternative 1: No Project Alternative, on the following ground, which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative: (1) the alternative fails to meet most of the Project objectives; (2) the alternative fails to avoid or reduce the Project’s significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level; and (3) this alternative would have a new significand and unavoidable impact in regards to Population and Housing since it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

2. Alternative 2: Reduced Growth Alternative
Description: Alternative 2 (Reduced Growth Alternative) continues to allow for new development in single-use and mixed-use formats, like those included in the proposed Project, but at lower densities and intensities that are more consistent with those allowed under the current General Plan. The goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan Update would apply to subsequent development, planning, and infrastructure projects under this alternative. This Alternative is defined by three major changes from the proposed General Plan Update:

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1140 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 262 of 266 ends

1. Reduction in the maximum density and intensity associated with the Mixed-Use (MU) land use designation; in Alternative 2, the maximum density for residential development in areas designated for MU is reduced from 36 du/ac to 22 du/ac (consistent with the maximum density proposed for the High Density Residential land use designation) and the maximum intensity for nonresidential development is reduced from 1.0 FAR to 0.50 FAR (consistent with the maximum intensity proposed for the Commercial land use designation).

2. Elimination of the Downtown Village (DV) land use designation; in Alternative 2, areas previously designated for DV are designated for High Density Residential (HDR).

3. Elimination of the Very High Density Residential (VHDR) land use designation; in Alternative 2, areas previously designated for VHDR are designated for High Density Residential (HDR).

This alternative continues to allow for mixed-use opportunities with less development potential, and in more limited areas, than allowed under the General Plan Update. It also reflects a maximum residential density of 22 du/ac, consistent with the maximum residential density allowed under the current General Plan.

Alternative 2 would result in approximately 4,339 fewer housing units and 14,493 fewer residents within San Jacinto when compared to the proposed General Plan Land Use Map.

Nonresidential development potential would be reduced by 788,524 square feet and employment opportunities would be decreased under this alternative, with approximately 3,044 fewer jobs created within the City limits when compared to the proposed General Plan Update.

Impacts: As shown in Draft EIR Table 7-5, Alternative 2 would result in the same impacts as the proposed project for the environmental issues of: Aesthetics, Agricultural Resources, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Mineral Resources, Population and Housing, Tribal Cultural Resources, and Wildfire. Alternative 2 would result in reduced impacts to Air Quality, Energy, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Land Use and Planning, Noise, Public Services and Recreation, Utilities and Service Systems, and Irreversible Effects.

Alternative 2 would result in increased impacts to Transportation. This alternative would fail to reduce any significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level.

Attainment of Project Objectives: Alternative 2 meets most of the project objectives. Like the proposed project, Alternative 2 reflects the current goals and vision expressed by city residents, businesses, decision-makers, and other stakeholders; protects and enhances San Jacinto’s unique history and character; promotes San Jacinto as a safe, vibrant, and familyfriendly community; proactively plans for and accommodates local and regional growth in a responsible manner; encourages the revitalization of San Jacinto’s Main Street and other community activity centers; allows for a range of housing options, although not to the same extent as the proposed Project; attracts and retains businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents; creates a more balanced jobs-housing ratio within the community;

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1141 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 263 of 266 ends

continues to maintain and improve multimodal transportation opportunities; maintains strong fiscal sustainability and continues to provide efficient and adequate public services; and addresses emerging transportation, housing, and employment trends. Although Alternative 2 would address new requirements of State law, it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

Finding: The City Council rejects Alternative 2: Reduced Growth Alternative, on the following ground, which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative:
(1) the alternative fails to meet all of the Project objectives; (2) the alternative fails to avoid or reduce the Project’s significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level; and (3) the alternative would have a new significant and unavoidable impact in regards to Population and Housing since it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

3. Alternative 3: Employment Focused Alternative
Description: Alternative 3 (Employment Focused Alternative) reflects a land use pattern designed to promote nonresidential development and employment opportunities.

Alternative 3 modifies the uses allowed within the Mixed-Use land use designation to only allow for a mix of nonresidential (commercial, industrial, and business park) land uses while precluding residential development. Alternative 3 also eliminates the Downtown Village (DV) land use; for parcels designated as DV in the proposed Project, Alternative 3 designates these parcels for Commercial development. The goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan Update would apply to subsequent development, planning, and infrastructure projects under this alternative.

Alternative 3 would result in approximately 12,649 fewer housing units and 42,250 fewer residents within San Jacinto when compared to the proposed General Plan Land Use Map.

Nonresidential square feet would be reduced by 4,087,964 square feet and employment opportunities would be decreased under this alternative, with approximately 6,347 fewer jobs created within the City limits when compared to the proposed General Plan.

Impacts: As shown in Draft EIR Table 7-5, Alternative 3 would result in the same impacts as the proposed project for the environmental issues of: Aesthetics, Agricultural Resources, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Mineral Resources, Tribal Cultural Resources, and Wildfire. Alternative 3 would result in reduced impacts to Air Quality, Energy, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Noise, Public Services and Recreation, Utilities and Service Systems, and Irreversible Effects. Alternative 3 would result in increased impacts to Population and Housing and Transportation. This alternative would fail to reduce any significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level.

Attainment of Project Objectives: Alternative 3 meets most of the project objectives, but

4.1.f
Packet Pg. 1142 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 264 of 266 ends

not to the same extent as the Project. Like the proposed Project, Alternative 3 reflects the current goals and vision expressed by city residents, businesses, decision-makers, and other stakeholders; protects and enhances San Jacinto’s unique history and character; promotes San Jacinto as a safe, vibrant, and family-friendly community; proactively plans for and accommodates local and regional growth in a responsible manner; encourages the revitalization of San Jacinto’s Main Street and other community activity centers; allows for a range of housing options, although not to the same extent as the proposed Project; attracts and retains businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents; creates a more balanced jobs-housing ratio within the community; continues to maintain and improve multimodal transportation opportunities; maintains strong fiscal sustainability and continues to provide efficient and adequate public services; and addresses emerging transportation, housing, and employment trends. Although Alternative 3 would address new requirements of State law, it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

Finding: The City Council rejects Alternative 3: Employment Focused Alternative, on the following ground, which provides sufficient justification for rejection of this alternative:
(1) the alternative fails to meet all of the Project objectives; (2) the alternative fails to avoid or reduce the Project’s significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level; (3) the alternative would have a new significant and unavoidable impact in regards to Population and Housing since it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element.

E. ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE
Section 15126.6(e)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that an analysis of alternatives to a proposed Project shall identify an environmentally superior alternative among the alternatives evaluated in an EIR. Based on the alternatives analysis contained within the Draft EIR, Alternative 2 (Reduced Growth Alternative) is identified as the Environmentally Superior Alternative.

Alternative 2 (Reduced Growth Alternative) is the environmentally superior alternative as it is the most effective in terms of overall reductions of impacts compared to the proposed General Plan Update and all other alternatives. Alternative 2 meets most of the project objectives. Like the proposed project, Alternative 2 reflects the current goals and vision expressed by city residents, businesses, decision-makers, and other stakeholders; protects and enhances San Jacinto’s unique history and character; promotes San Jacinto as a safe, vibrant, and family-friendly community; proactively plans for and accommodates local and regional growth in a responsible manner; encourages the revitalization of San Jacinto’s Main Street and other community activity centers; allows for a range of housing options, although not to the same extent as the proposed Project; attracts and retains businesses and industries that provide jobs for local residents; creates a more balanced jobs-housing ratio within the community; continues to maintain and improve multimodal transportation opportunities; maintains strong fiscal sustainability and continues to provide efficient and adequate public services; and addresses emerging transportation, housing, and employment trends. Although Alternative 2 would address new requirements of State law, it would not allow the City to meet its RHNA obligations and would preclude certification of the City’s Housing Element. Therefore, City Council rejects the environmentally superior alternative.

SECTION IX

ADOPTION OF STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15093(a), the City Council must balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of the project against its unavoidable environmental risks in determining whether to approve the Project. If the specific benefits of the Project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, those environmental effects may be considered acceptable.

Having reduced the adverse significant environmental effects of the Project to the extent feasible through the implementation of the General Plan Update goals, policies, and actions; having considered the entire administrative record on the Project; the City Council has weighed the benefits of the Project against its unavoidable adverse impacts after mitigation in regards to agricultural resources, air quality, biological resources, greenhouse gas emissions, and noise.

While recognizing that the unavoidable adverse impacts are significant under CEQA thresholds, the City Council nonetheless finds that the unavoidable adverse impacts that will result from the Project are acceptable and outweighed by specific social, economic and other benefits of the Project.

In making this determination, the factors and public benefits specified below were considered. Any one of these reasons is sufficient to justify approval of the Project. Thus, even if a court were to conclude that not every reason is supported by substantial evidence, the City Council would be able to stand by its determination that each individual reason is sufficient. The substantial evidence supporting the various benefits can be found in the preceding findings, which are incorporated by reference into this section, and in the documents found in the Records of Proceeding.

The City Council therefore finds that for each of the significant impacts which are subject to a finding under CEQA Section 21081(a)(3), that each of the following social, economic, and environmental benefits of the Project, independent of the other benefits, outweigh the potential significant unavoidable adverse impacts and render acceptable each and every one of these unavoidable adverse environmental impacts:

1. The General Plan Update promotes more compact, environmentally-sustainable, and equitable development through goals, policies, and actions that balance the need for adequate infrastructure, housing, economic vitality, and environmental justice with the need for resource management, environmental protection, and preservation of quality of life for San Jacinto residents.

2. The General Plan Update implements principles of sustainable growth by concentrating new urban development around existing urban development, and along key commercial and transportation corridors; thereby minimizing land consumption while maintaining open space, habitat, and recreation uses throughout the Study Area.

Packet Pg. 1144 Attachment: Resolution No. 3949 - Exhibit "A" - CEQA Findings of Fact (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040) Findings

Page 266 of 266 ends

3. The General Plan Update provides a land use map that accounts for existing development, physical constraints, economic development, hazards, and incompatible uses and assigns densities and use types accordingly to enhance the safety, livability, and economic vitality of San Jacinto.

4. The General Plan Update improves mobility options through the development of a multimodal transportation network that enhances connectivity, supports community development patterns, limits traffic congestion, promotes public and alternative transportation methods, and supports the goals of adopted regional transportation plans.

5. The General Plan Update directs the preservation and environmental stewardship of the vast array of natural, cultural and historic resources that uniquely define the character and ecological importance of the City and greater region.

6. The General Plan Update addresses adverse environmental effects associated with global climate change by facilitating sustainable development, promoting energy efficiency, and promoting development that reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

7. The General Plan Update enhances the local economy and provides opportunities for future jobs and business development commensurate with forecasted growth by planning for commercial and industrial development near existing urbanized areas and transportation corridors.

8. The General Plan Update is the product of a comprehensive public planning effort driven by members of the public, city stakeholders, the Planning Commission and the City Council through a series of public meetings, hearings and workshops that resulted in a thoughtful balance of community, economic, social, and environmental interests.

OVERVIEW

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE
The City of San Jacinto (City) is preparing the San Jacinto General Plan Update and Environmental Impact Report (EIR), and has prioritized community input as an important guiding force. The General Plan lays out long range goals and objectives for San Jacinto’s future growth, and is intended to present a realistic vision for the future that serves the residents’ economic, recreational, and community needs.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
The community outreach and public input process are fundamental to the General Plan Update. This process seeks meaningful and comprehensive feedback from the entire San Jacinto Community, helping to ensure the General Plan Update represents a shared vision that the community will take pride in. Guided by the Community Engagement Plan, the City conducted three rounds of community workshops and two pop-up events between February and August 2019. Workshop 1 focused on Visioning, Workshop 2 on Transportation and Mobility, and Workshop 3 on Land Use and Housing. Pop-up events were hosted in conjunction with two Kool August Nights summer concert series events. In addition to the in-person activities, residents were encouraged to complete an online survey, and the City hosted a set of stakeholder focus groups.

This document summarizes feedback from all of these activities. Approximately 200 people participated in the process, providing feedback through visually-rich, hands-on activities like Post-it note brainstorming, mapping, visioning, interactive polling, and comment cards. The appendices include graphic displays of workshop materials and feedback.

OUTREACH OBJECTIVES:
• Conduct an open and transparent process.
• Engage the full spectrum of San Jacinto community members, residents, business owners, landowners, and other stakeholders in the General Plan Update process; enhance public awareness of the project and its importance.
• Gather meaningful community input, ideas, and feedback to shape the vision, alternatives, and policies to be included in the General Plan Update. • Build a framework to develop community consensus throughout the process. • Strengthen and expand relationships and trust between the City and community members.

Advertisement
Information for all community events was posted on the Envision San Jacinto | General Plan 2040 website sanjacinto.generalplan.org, and advertised on social media (Facebook, Instagram, NextDoor). Workshop information was sent in a mailer to every household in San Jacinto (see Appendix A). If individuals signed up for notifications on the project website and/or provided their email address at City Hall or previous workshops, they received personal electronic invitations to subsequent meetings.

VALUES, ISSUES, AND

OPPORTUNITIES
The first of the three workshops was held on February 21, 2019 from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. at the San Jacinto Community Center. The focus of this Visioning workshop was to ask for input from residents on what they value in San Jacinto, what they see as challenges, and what their vision is for the future of the City.

More than 50 residents attended, providing their comments, questions, and visions for San Jacinto. The workshop was held in a bilingual environment, with English and Spanish-speaking project team members circulating in the room. An official translator with headsets was readily available.

The workshop was conducted in an interactive format, which included a presentation, three hands-on activities, and a discussion. Attendees signed in to the workshop on arriving and received project handouts, comment cards, and giveaways. The room was set up with long tables, to facilitate interactions. The workshop opened with a brief presentation introducing the General Plan Update, the outreach process, and a video commemorating the history of San Jacinto. The workshop then moved into the assets and challenges activity, visioning activity, and mapping activity.

Discussion followed. All input received during Workshop 1 can be found in Appendix B.

Objectives:
• Email announcements sent to:

ACTIVITY 2: VISIONING
During Activity 2, participants were asked to think about what they would like to see in San Jacinto in the future. Each table had a flip chart, and participants chose one person from their table to act as a note taker. Members at each table then stated in a few words what they would like to see changed, remain the same, or planned for in the future. The note taker wrote these statements on the flip charts and the project team then asked each table to read a few statements from their flip charts.

For the second part of the activity, the project team asked participants to imagine that they were visiting San Jacinto 20 years from now and to draw or write a postcard from
their visit. Participants were encouraged to write or draw about what they would like to see in San Jacinto in the future.
• Provide more community programs and services
• Bring in industry and good paying jobs

Packet Pg. 1156 Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan Envision San Jacinto 2040 | General Plan Update Community Vision Guide 8 ACTIVITY 1: POLL EVERYWHERE
The first activity used the interactive online platform Poll Everywhere to ask participants questions about transportation in their community. Questions were displayed on a screen at the front of the room and participants used their mobile phones to text their responses. Answers appeared on the screen as participants texted, allowing feedback from all attendees to be visible and encouraging community members to think about a range of issues.

Please refer to Appendix C to see a full recount of questions and feedback. • If transit is available for your trip but you chose not to take it, why not? • If you could, would you take transit?
• Would you ride your bike to work if it felt safe and comfortable? Some Questions Included:
• The most pressing transportation-related issues are potholes, bike lanes, widening of sidewalks, and more bus routes
• If walking, biking, and taking transit were an option, most of the community would use these methods of transportation to go to the park • The main obstacles to using public transportation are the length between stops and infrequent buses
Key Themes that Emerged:

Packet Pg. 1157 Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan Envision San Jacinto 2040 | General Plan Update Community Vision Guide 9 ACTIVITY 2: BRAINSTORM
For Activity 2, participants were asked the question “What transportation issues are you most concerned about in your city?” and responses were recorded on flip charts next to each table. The project team asked participants to choose one person from their table to be a note taker, then brainstorm answers as the note taker wrote them down. The project team asked each table to vote on its top two issues and report back to the entire group. • Addressing potholes, sidewalks, and bike lanes are infrastructure priorities • Accessibility in and out of the city and sidewalk maintenance Key Themes that Emerged:

The second part of the brainstorming activity asked participants, “Are there specific locations where transportationrelated issues need to be addressed and improved in the City?” The flip charts remained in front of each table, and participants again chose one person from their table to be a note taker and brainstormed their answers as the note taker wrote them down. The project team asked each table to vote on the two most important locations for special attention and to report back to the entire group. Key themes that emerged included improvements at the 5 points roundabout and San Jacinto Avenue. Please refer to Appendix C to see all comments received.

ACTIVITY 3: MAPPING
The mapping activity consisted of two parts, one focusing on where participants live, work, and play, and the other on where they would walk, bike, or take transit if given the opportunity.

Each table was provided with a large, regional map of
San Jacinto extending as far as Mission Viejo, Redlands, Murrieta, and Los Angeles. Using blue, red, and green
stickers, participants were asked to place on the map
where they live, where they work, and where they go
for entertainment. One major theme that emerged from
this activity were that many people both work and seek
entertainment outside of San Jacinto.

The second part of the Mapping activity asked participants to identify where they would walk, bike, or take a bus in San Jacinto if given the opportunity using stickers in the shape of their preferred mode of transportation. Please refer to Appendix D for pictures of the maps.

Comment Cards
In addition to the activities, participants were encouraged to write down statements, questions, suggestions, or
feedback on comment cards at and time, and to place
them in a comment card box. Please see Appendix B for
pictures of all the comment cards.

3 LAND USE AND

HOUSING
The third round of community workshops was held on March 28, 2019 from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. at the San Jacinto Community Center. The focus of the workshop was to solicit input from San Jacinto’s residents about land use and housing. Specific input was focused on community members’ priorities about home maintenance, affordability, housing availability, and community perspectives on how the City should grow and develop in the future in key Focus Areas.

Approximately 50 residents attended, providing their comments, questions, and recommendations for housing solutions and land use planning. The workshop was held in a bilingual environment, with English and Spanish-speaking project team members circulating in the room. An official translator with headsets was readily available. The project team conducted the workshop in an interactive and informative format, including a brief presentation, a digital activity, two hands-on activities, and discussion. Attendees signed in to the workshop on arriving and received project handouts, comment cards, and giveaways. The room was set up with long tables, to facilitate interactions. The workshop opened with introductions to the project team, a brief presentation about the role of land use and housing in the General Plan, the General Plan process, and a video commemorating the history of San Jacinto.

The workshop then transitioned into a Poll Everywhere activity. This included an overview of housing and development trends in San Jacinto and in the broader region. Attendees participated in the Poll Everywhere activity, then were split into two groups to participate in a brainstorming activity focused on housing solutions, as well as a Focus Area mapping activity. Both groups had equal opportunity to engage in both activities. All input received during Workshop 3 can be found in Appendix D.

ACTIVITY 2B: HOUSING ELEMENT SOLUTIONS BRAINSTORM
For Activity 2b, participants revisited the priorities from the first Poll Everywhere activity. During the workshop, the project team identified the top priorities for housing which included Code Enforcement, Overcrowding, and Homelessness. Three project team members facilitated a group brainstorming activity to identify a list of solutions to each priority. The project team wrote solutions on flip charts at individual tables and then reported back to the broader group.
• Balanced land uses are a possible solution to overcrowding • Encouraging volunteer programs for city maintenance can be beneficial to code enforcement • Planning for more affordable housing is a potential solution to homelessness Key Themes that Emerged:

Four maps with different focus areas were placed
in different areas of the room with the following
designations: Focus Area 1- Gateway, Focus Area 2-
Downtown, Focus Area 3- Ramona Expressway East,
and Outside Focus Area Preferences. Participants placed their stickers with corresponding land uses on each map, designating where they envision different land uses in
different parts of San Jacinto.

ACTIVITY 2A: FOCUS AREAS
For Activity 2a, participants familiarized themselves with a series of photos related to land uses, and then used stickers assigned to the land uses to designate on three separate focus areas and where they thought the land uses were most appropriate. A fourth map included areas not covered in the focus areas on the other 3 maps. Land uses were separated into the following categories: Estate/Rural Residential, Traditional Single-Family, Duplex and Triplex, Townhome and Multifamily Homes, General Commercial, Experience Commercial, Employment Centers, and Civic Uses. • How will civic uses fit into the future of San Jacinto? • What types of employment/commercial uses do you envision for the future? • What types of housing choices should be available and where should they go? Participants were encouraged to consider the following:

Comment Cards
In addition to the activities, participants were encouraged to write down statements, questions, suggestions, or feedback on comment cards at and time, and to place them in a comment card box. Please see Appendix B for pictures of all the comment cards.

POP-UP EVENTS

KOOL AUGUST
NIGHTS
One effective way of ensuring that the entire community is engaged in the process is meeting people where they
already are. This means participating in existing community events or at well-used public locations to allow provide to provide input in a comfortable environment, and on their own terms.

For Envision San Jacinto, the project team hosted two
pop-up events in conjunction with the Kool August Nights concert series. Events occurred on August 14 and 28, 2019, from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. at the Estudillo Mansion. The popups were designed to solicit creative feedback from event attendees, and to raise awareness about the Envision San Jacinto project.

The project team set up a booth and hosted three activities. The first asked attendees to answer the question “In 2040, I envision San Jacinto as...” on a small white board, and then pose for a Polaroid picture. Polaroids were then posted to a board at the booth. For the second activity, a word cloud in the shape of a heart was compiled from previous community input, and printed on a large board. Attendees were then asked to write what they love about San Jacinto in the space around the word cloud. The third activity asked attendees to identify what San Jacinto should prioritize as it plans for the future. Options included parks and open space, community health, transportation, housing, safety, retail & entertainment, biking and walking, economic growth and job creation.

More details on input received during the pop-up workshops can be found in Appendix E.

Objectives:

Because the goal of this event was to gather input from residents where they already were, advertising for this event was conducted in conjunction with advertising for Kool August Nights, during workshops, and by word-of-mouth. • Continue to raise awareness about the General Plan Update • Learn from community members:
• How do residents envision San Jacinto in 2040?
• What do community members love about San Jacinto?
• What should the City prioritize as it plans for the future? Outreach:

STAKEHOLDER FOCUS GROUPS
The project team organized a set of stakeholder interviews to facilitate a focused discussion around important issues in the community. Two focus groups were held on August 14, 2019, one focusing on the local development community, and the other on community health and wellness. Discussions were guided by a set of interview questions focusing on successes, challenges, needs, and best practices.

Some Major Themes
• Mental health, homelessness, and equity should be addressed along with physical health. • Health and nutrition are vital for creating opportunities for success for students. Scholarships, greater access to facilities for lunch programs, and community partnerships are some ways to support programs that are already successful in the community. • Recreational facilities should be a focus. Larger parks and maintained walking trails support more physical activity.

Participants in the local development community focus group included representatives from organizations including Cooper Development, Kellar Williams, KZ Companies, Lee & Associates, Rich Development, and SVN. Following are some major themes that came out of the discussion.

Some Major Themes
• Opportunity may exist in the future for larger “big-box” retail such as Lowes, Home Depot, and Target, but will be dependent on housing and socioeconomic factors. • Streamlining of California Environmental Quality Act process would help to reduce CEQA abuses. • Addressing education and safety challenges will be important for commercial growth. • Smaller industrial development (3,000 - 4,000 square foot units) could present an opportunity for growth in service-type businesses, which would perform well in San Jacinto.

Community Health and Wellness
Participants in the local development community focus group included representatives from organizations including Mount San Jacinto College, San Jacinto Unified School District, National Alliance on Mental Illness - Mt. San Jacinto, and the Riverside University Health System - Public Health, and Valley-Wide Recreation & Park District. • Addressing environmental quality, especially related to agricultural chemicals, is important. • Tobacco control is an important consideration.

3 Tribal government input 10/25/2019 2:38 PM
4 I would like to see the city take action on homelessness and drug use / public influence and or intoxication
9/30/2019 12:13 PM
5 Would like to see road access improvements PRIOR to more housing. We also need more law enforcement to help with improving our current neighborhoods. San Jacinto has really declined and no longer feels safe even in the newer neighborhoods. 9/11/2019 1:01 PM
6 Less homeless. And less people that are being released from jail in our city. 9/6/2019 8:55 PM 7 Bring back the idea of a shopping area like the proposed Ramona Crossings area; I have to shop in Beaumont now. Melrose Tax is too high. Don't allow 55+ Trailer Parks to be converted to "All Ages" trailer parks. Push CA to begin construction of Ramona Expressway. Property owners should be accountable for keeping yards and homes in compliance with local ordinances. Too many dollar stores and thrift stores. It is time to reopen the San Jacinto River Park. 6/26/2019 7:27 AM
8 As a new resident of Jan Jacinto I would like to see the city be cleaned up. You have all this new housing moving in but nothing to do in the main city. You drive around and you see a ran down town. I believe the city has thoughts on revamping the town and I believe the city will fully agree with you. I would like you to take some time and study the fast and rapid growing city’s such as Eastvale & Rancho Cucamonga. If you ever have ideas to talk about I’m all ears.

13 Like I said in the survey we need housing at all levels and we need to attract more companies that have stability for those empty commercial sites that there are way too many of in the city. As a real estate investor, it pains me that more is not being done. As far as the housing issue, security and upkeep should go hand and hand with new or referbrished builds. 4/1/2019 10:41 PM

34 we need to attract business, tax revenue and jobs for the future. 2/22/2019 12:46 PM 35 As I've said before the population of poor people in this town needs to be addresses. We need a place for families to help sustain their households. The amount of families that are falling between the cracks, that do not qualify for food stamps because they are working, is very large in this community, I know this because of the non-profit food program I use to run here. These families are more than willing to contribute to make this possible. We also used and can use again, court ordered community service workers to help run the place as we have in the past and were the only ones in town that allowed these people to work off their court ordered hours. I would be willing to start up the program again with help.

36 More sidewalks and get rid of homeless people 2/21/2019 9:53 PM 37 Would like to see more affordable housing choices for seniors, like a co-op with imbedded assistive services. It would also be nice to see inclusive supportive housing for disabled/disadvantaged individuals.
2/21/2019 9:33 PM
38 I do not have any school aged children, but I want our education and schools to be a focus. Where great schools are comes an influx in property values, less crime, more desirable businesses, and more money for the City. San Jacinto needs to have an "if we build it, they will come" attitude, and be proactive, instead of always being reactive. I have seen numerous cities follow this sort of guideline and have succeeded with transforming their communities into desirable living areas.

Let's go San Jacinto!!

CITY OF SAN JACINTO TRAILS MASTER PLAN
2 PURPOSE STUDY AREA
The City of San Jacinto Trails Master Plan (TMP) is a planning effort that summarizes the City’s existing trail and multi-modal conditions to develop project recommendations that make multi-modal transportation safe and enjoyable options. The TMP was created with input from the community, stakeholders, and City staff as a tool to facilitate future grant efforts and public/private partnerships. As a result, the TMP can help to improve the quality of life for all who live, work, and play in San Jacinto.

The TMP establishes a system of corridors by incorporating walking, biking, and multi-use paths (trails) within San Jacinto’s streets and open space. Additionally, the plan provides recommendations on how to successfully implement and maintain the proposed corridor improvements.

The TMP takes into consideration the City’s General Plan and numerous past and on-going planning projects. By incorporating community feedback into the plan, the TMP also recommends facilities in places where people need them the most.

A TMP provides a first step as cities continue to strive to become healthier, and environmentally friendly places for people to live, work, and play.

The City of San Jacinto is located in the western region of Riverside County, California in the San Jacinto Valley, accessible by CA Highways 79 and 74. The City is bordered by the City of Hemet to the south, the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians to the east, and unincorporated Riverside County land to the north and west. The San Jacinto River runs along the east side of the city while several other flood control channels can be found throughout the City in multiple directions.

With a 2016 census population of 46,375, San Jacinto has a population density of 1,780.9 people per square mile within its 26.04 square mile area. The City’s location and surrounding landscape has historically contributed to the agricultural land uses within the City’s limits, most notably dairies. Residential land use is the second largest land use found within the City, followed by commercial, educational, and industrial land uses.

CITY OF SAN JACINTO TRAILS MASTER PLAN
4 SCOPE AND VISION and economic concerns, but being able to safely and conveniently get around without needing to drive a motor vehicle is the result a community’s quality of life commitment to embrace active transportation.

The TMP aims to be the basis for the City’s commitment to make San Jacinto a greener, more pedestrian and bicycle friendly community as part of a comprehensive sustainability strategy by reducing the need for motor vehicle travel and associated emissions.

Especially in a city like San Jacinto, where the landscape is relatively flat and where three seasons of the year are so favorable, why don’t more people walk or bicycle, or allow their children to do so? The primary barrier to bicycling is widely perceived as the dangers of having to compete with motor vehicle traffic, and for many people, this makes driving simply feel more convenient and safer than walking or bicycling. One of the primary goals is to change these perceptions by developing strategies and solutions that will reduce the dependence of driving to grabbing your walking shoes and/or your bicycle.

Recommendations will be included in the final report of the TMP and include a range of project types, as well as associated programs to encourage more trail-use, bicycling and walking in the City. Facility types perceived to be both the safest and most convenient virtually always receive the highest survey approval rates. To reflect this, an additional “visionary projects” category can be included in the final report. This category can address the long-term “big picture” solutions to help make San Jacinto a truly pedestrian and bicycle-friendly community through the implementation of a convenient network of “low stress” facilities separated from vehicle traffic, particularly with a backbone loop consisting of multi-use paths and trails. Recommended improvements will be described, but precise alignments and details will be developed during subsequent implementation phases. The TMP will also consider connections within the larger regional context.

The TMP will serve as San Jacinto’s active transportation and trails guide for the development of multi-modal projects that best meet the needs of the community. The TMP takes advantage of a committed group of community members, physical opportunities provided by its relatively flat terrain, and its centrally located position within western Riverside County.

The following objectives are addressed within the TMP:

1. Identify gaps and barriers, both perceived and actual, in the existing pedestrian, bicycling, and trail network where high priority corridors are disconnected;

2. Engage with the community to gather local knowledge on existing challenges and opportunities;

3. Analyze the existing infrastructure around activity centers, such as parks and commercial centers, to determine appropriate solutions;

4. Develop a methodology for prioritizing projects that include family-friendly routes, first and last mile connections to transit, and a tiered network that serves both experienced riders and less experienced riders; and

5. Encourage walking and bicycling as viable transportation modes.

Furthermore, this plan embraces the State of California’s following goal:
“It is the goal of the state to increase the number of trips Californians take by bicycling, walking, and other forms of active transportation in order to help meet the state’s greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals, improve Californians’ health by helping more people be active, and stimulate the economy.” ~ Caltrans Design Information Bulletin (DIB) 89: Class IV Bikeway Guidance (Separated Bikeways/Cycle Tracks) The State of California’s desire to increase the number of bicycling and walking trips specifically addresses personal health, sustainability

5 ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION

AND TRAIL TRENDS
centage was 11.9%. The report also found an increase in students that walked from school in the same time frame. In 2013, approximately

18.4% students walked from school compared to 15.2% in 2007.

It is just as important to understand the context of specific communities when describing active transportation trends, opportunities and challenges. Results from the 2009 National Household Transportation Survey (NHTS) communicated that trips taken by households of low-income are more likely to be on foot or public transit than households of higher income. In addition, the trips low-income households make by walking or biking are more likely to be for daily errands, work, school, or church than for social or recreational purposes. Only 36% of walking trips made by households with an annual income of less than $20,000 were reported as social or recreational purposes, compared to 45–52% of walking trips by households of higher incomes. Furthermore, low-income households and communities of color experience disparate accommodations and benefits related to active transportation. According to the Safe Routes to School National Partnership “At the Intersection of Active Transportation and Equity 2015 Report, almost 90% of high-income neighborhoods have sidewalks on one or both sides of the street, in contrast to only 49% in low-income neighborhoods. Furthermore, Many American cities were built on a foundation of auto-centric infrastructure, programs and policies, but many of those same cities are embracing active transportation as a viable option to driving. Some of them are making minor improvements to support cycling and walking, while others are working hard to undo decades of planning that privileged motor vehicle throughput and speed above all else. Environmental, health, and economic benefits reinforce the task of retrofitting American cities to make them bicycle and pedestrian friendly. The movement to make cycling and walking viable transportation options is also supported by several recent pieces of California legislation.

Recent active transportation statistics and trends depict steps both forward and backward. For example, the Alliance for Biking and Walking released a Benchmarking Report in 2016 that communicated that there is an overall increase in walking to and from school. In 2013, the percent of kids who walked to school was found to be approximately

15.2% nationwide, an increase from 2007 where the approximate per49% low-income 90%

CITY OF SAN JACINTO TRAILS MASTER PLAN
6 The TMP incorporates regional and local planning efforts that are directly related to walking, biking, and trails. These efforts range from long-range regional planning to neighborhood-specific plans. The following information provides a summary of the planning projects that were considered as part of the TMP.

GENERAL PLAN
The San Jacinto General Plan is the City’s
long-range planning document that
contains the vision for the City’s future
growth and development. The Circulation Element and the Community Services and Facilities Development contain several goals and objectives that contribute to the success of this TMP.

CIRCULATION ELEMENT
The Circulation Element (CE) of the General Plan outlines the City’s “continued development and improvement of the circulation system to support existing and planned development.” The CE includes specific sections that discuss the City’s goals of promoting alternative modes of transportation such as bicycling, walking, and equestrian riding. The following goals from the CE are directly connected to the development of the TMP. a 2012 report called “Bridging the Gap, Income Disparities in Street Features that Encourage Walking” revealed that 75% of high-income communities have street lighting installed compared to only 51% in low-income communities.

Empty Nesters, particularly as the number of Baby Boomers reaching retirement age accelerates, are also showing a strong preference for communities that support walking. American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) surveys found that 70 percent of respondents age 65 and older agreed that living near where they want to go, such as grocery stores, health care providers, libraries and social or religious organizations, was extremely or very important. Additionally, 51 percent agreed that it was extremely or very important to be able to walk easily in their community.

In many California cities, non-motorized bikeway and trail network development has not kept up with demand. Bikeways and trails are often conditions of development, but relying on this can result in disconnected facilities. Many cities are addressing system gaps through re-striping streets to reallocate space to bicycle facilities, updating bicycle and trails master planning, and securing grants for facility construction.

There has also been a growing preference for new facility types that enhance pedestrian and bicyclist safety, particularly protected bicycle lanes physically separated from motor vehicle traffic. In addition, acknowledging that most trips Americans make are within 1 mile, it is important to assess the infrastructure and make a genuine effort to entice people to walk or bike to their destinations through enhanced facilities.

7 Circulation Goal 1: Provide a circulation system that meets the needs of existing and future land uses.

Circulation Goal 4: Promote the increased use of public and multimodal transportation, and provide adequate facilities for these modes of transportation.

Circulation Goal 5: Provide an extensive and regionally linked public bicycle, pedestrian, and equestrian trails system.

The CE also includes information regarding the classification of the street network within the City. The street classifications and the rightof-way information associated with them help determine what kinds of physical improvements can be recommended for the on-street corridors identified in this plan.

The Implementation section of the CE also discusses the City’s need to “Provide, enhance, and maintain local bike, pedestrian, and equestrian linkages” and to “Work with project proponents to ensure that safe attractive sidewalks, walkways, bike lanes, and cross walk are provided in accordance with City standards. Work with developers to construct links to adjacent communities, using open space easements and utility easements wherever appropriate.”

COMMUNITY SERVICES AND FACILITIES ELEMENT
The Community Services and Facilities Element (CSFE) guides the City’s services and infrastructure needs as it continues to grow and evolve.

Since much of the City’s land is undeveloped or used for agricultural purposes, this element plays a major role in making sure the City addresses its community’s needs. The following goals of this element have direct connections to the scope and vision of the TMP.

Community Services and Facilities Goal 10: Provide sufficient parks, recreational, and open space facilities.

In addition, the CSFE discusses the use of linear parks and trails throughout the City where possible. It refers to the Rancho San Jacinto Community and the 38-acre linear park system that uses “storm water detention basins to connect with a system of bicycle/pedestrian paths.” It goes on to explain that future trail and linear park opportunities should include multi-use paths along the river levee, drainage courses, utility easements, fault zones, and river levees, and flood control channels. Lastly, in the Implementation section of the CSFE, it discusses the need to update the City’s Master Flood Control and Drainage Plan and to include standards that encourage the development of “multi-use channels such as wide grass-lined swales that can be used as bicycle/ pedestrian trails.”

CITYWIDE SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL PLAN
San Jacinto embarked on a citywide Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan in 2016. The plan aims to
create safer and enjoyable options for walking and bicycling to and from school within the
city. SRTS plans contain both infrastructure and program-bases recommendations that the city,
local organizations, the school
district, and other community
members can use to improve the
school’s surrounding environment. The San Jacinto SRTS contains designated Safe Routes to School corridors that are optimized with infrastructure improvements. These routes may connect one or more schools and provide students and families options for multi-modal travel to and from their schools. The recommendations in the SRTS plan will help guide other kinds of improvements city-wide in the TMP.

DOWNTOWN SAN JACINTO SPECIFIC PLAN
The Downtown San Jacinto Specific Plan
(DSJSP) is a project, on-going at the time of
the creation of the TMP, that will guide the
future growth of San Jacinto’s downtown.

This comprehensive plan includes many
elements that contribute to a healthy and
successful downtown, but the following
goals are directly related to the TMP:

Enhancement of the pedestrian scale and
function of the built environment;
Establishment of a complementary mix of
cultural uses, public spaces and outdoor
activities;
Stronger connections with local neighborhoods and connectivity with mobility options.

Because the DSJSP encompasses a large footprint within the City, there are opportunities within the TMP to help guide multi-modal recom 8 -
mendations that complement and enhance the DSJSP.

SAN JACINTO HEALTHY COMMUNITIES ELEMENT STUDY
The San Jacinto Healthy Communities Element Study was initiated in 2017 as part of the Downtown San Jacinto Specific Plan. This effort was completed to create a Healthy Communities Element for the City’s General Plan. Through community engagement, the City identified goals, policies, and programs that address health challenges and opportunities. The following goals and policies are just a few examples that were identified in the study through the community engagement process. • Complete streets, connectivity, public transit
• Multi-purpose trails on key local streets
• Safe Routes to Parks
• Multi-purpose trails, nature trails, and education

MID COUNTY PARKWAY FINAL EIR/EIS
The Mid County Parkway is a proposed 16-mile transportation corridor designed to relieve east-west traffic congestion in the San Jacinto and Perris region and to help address transportation needs. The Mid County Parkway is an east-west route proposed between Interstate 215 and State Route 79. The Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) is the agency responsible for the development and implementation of this project. The RCTC approved the final EIR and is currently working through additional design packages needed to implement the project.

Knowing the alignment of the Mid County Parkway is important because multi-modal connections leading up to this corridor should be addressed in the safest and most comfortable fashion.

SAN JACINTO PARKS MASTER PLAN
The San Jacinto Parks Master Plan was completed in 2005 and at the time, provided an in-depth analysis of the City’s current and future park needs. The Parks Master Plan identified future park needs within Community Parks Districts. Understanding the location of future parks is important for the TMP because one of the major goals of the TMP is to connect parks, open space, and other activity centers via safe and comfortable corridors.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY

COMPREHENSIVE TRAILS PLAN
The Riverside County Comprehensive
Trails Plan was approved May 2018 and
serves as a guide for the management
and development of new trails within Riverside County. Regional and local trails within and near San Jacinto are
identified in this plan, serving as a great
starting point for the TMP.

9 LAKEVIEW NUEVO AREA PLAN
The Lakeview Nuevo Area Plan is one
of 19 area plans created as supplemental guiding documents for Riverside County’s General Plan. The area plans
were developed as focused planning
efforts that provide enhanced community goals and objectives. The Lakeview Nuevo Area Plan contains land use information, statistics, policies, and
guidance towards successfully developing for the area’s future. Within this Plan, they identified a network of active
transportation and trails systems that
provide community members recreation and commuting opportunities.

RTA FIRST & LAST MILE MOBILITY PLAN
The RTA First & Last Mile Mobility Plan
was adopted in April 2017. It serves as a
guiding document by providing valuable
information and tools for understanding
and improving Western Riverside’s First
and Last Mile transit connections. The
tools include a set of Station Typologies
to characterize all 2,500+ stations, identifies various strategies to improve First and Last Mile access, and develops recommendations and templates for each Station Typology.

The information and general recommendations found in the Mobility Plan may play an important role in identifying non-motorized issues and opportunities for transit stops throughout San Jacinto.

POPULATION, EMPLOYMENT, AND INCOME
According to the U.S. Census 2016 American Community Survey (ACS), San Jacinto has a population of 46,375 within its 26.04 square mile city boundary, resulting in a population density of 1,780.9 people per square mile in 12,957 households. San Jacinto’s population has a rela 14 -
tively even age distribution with roughly 12 percent of the population classified as seniors (over the age of 65), and 29 percent as children under the age of 18. San Jacinto’s racial and ethnic make-up is 52 percent Hispanic, 32 percent white, 4 percent Asian, 8 percent Black, 0.6 percent American Indian, and 0.3 percent other race.

Median household income is $48,382, while 18.4 percent of residents reporting incomes below the national poverty level. Of the households surveyed in 2015, most households have access to one or more vehicles, but 2.8 percent reported lacking access to a vehicle.

15 TRANSPORTATION MODE SHARE
According to the U.S. Census 2016 American Community Survey ‘Transportation to Work’ estimates, the majority of San Jacinto’s resident commuters (77 percent) rely on personal vehicles to travel to and from work. This mode is followed in prevalence by carpooling (15 percent), working from home (3.0 percent), walking (3 percent), transit (0.3 percent), by motorcycle (0.3 percent) and finally by biking (0.8 percent).

WALKING MODE SHARE
The walking mode share measures the percentage of workers aged 16 years and over who commute to work by foot. Mode share reflects how well infrastructure and land-use patterns support travel to work by foot. Walking mode share patterns are connected to the relative proximity of housing to employment centers.

BICYCLING MODE SHARE
Similar to the walking mode share, bicycling mode share measures the percentage of resident workers aged 16 years and over who commute to work by bicycle.

PUBLIC TRANSIT MODE SHARE
Transit mode share measures the percentage of workers aged 16 years and over who commute to work by transit. This mode share reflects how well first mile-last mile infrastructure, transit routes, and land-use patterns support travel to work by transit.

PUBLIC EASEMENTS AND SPECIAL DISTRICTS
Within the City’s land use, there are several public easements and special districts that are managed by different agencies. Identifying and under 20 -
standing each of these areas will provide a better understanding for the opportunities and challenges for trail, pedestrian, and bicycle facilities.

The largest of the special districts and easements are described below.

WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY REGIONAL CONSERVATION

AUTHORITY
This agency is responsible for the protection and management of sensitive ecological landscapes within Western Riverside County. They manage the hillsides in the western portion of San Jacinto.

EASTERN MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT
The Eastern Municipal Water District’s (EMWD) mission is to import Colorado River water to all if its service areas, most notably the Metropolitan Water District. They are charged with the responsibilities of providing “safe, reliable, economical, and environmentally sustainable water, wastewater, and recycled water services.” The EMWD oversees a large portion of the San Jacinto River in the eastern portion of the city.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT
The Riverside County Flood Control District is the regional authority whose mission is to “protect people, property and watersheds from damage or destruction from flood and storm waters and to conserve, reclaim and save such waters for beneficial use.”
The Flood Control District manages certain right-of-ways throughout the City that may potentially be used for future multi-use paths, as seen in many other cities.

SAN JACINTO UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
The San Jacinto Unified School District manages all preschool, elementary, middle, and high schools within the City. Their existing and planned schools are evenly distributed throughout the City to best serve their communities.

STREET CLASSIFICATIONS
The majority of San Jacinto’s streets are classified as local (70 percent) per the City’s General Plan Circulation Element. These streets are fol 22 -
lowed in quantity by collector (4.7 percent), arterial (23.57 percent), and lastly other freeway or expressway (1.67 percent).

Additional street classification information can be found in the City’s General Plan Circulation Element.

LIMITED ACCESS CONVENTIONAL HIGHWAY
Highways that carry large volumes of traffic relatively long distances through an urban or rural area. Also serve considerable local traffic traveling over short distances. Priority is placed on through-traffic rather than access to fronting property. Direct access to individual fronting parcel is limited. Should be continuous through the community they serve and link to arterial routes.

URBAN ARTERIAL
Roadways carrying moderately high volumes of long distance and local traffic. Although access to abutting property is permitted, priority is given to through traffic mobility.

ARTERIAL
Roadways carrying the traffic of local and collector streets to and from freeways and other major streets with controlled intersections and generally provide direct access to properties.

MAJOR
Roadways that complement the Arterial system. Normally links and may be continuous over shorter distances than arterials.

SECONDARY
Roadways intended to carry traffic between the local street system and the arterial highway system.

COLLECTOR
Roadway providing access to abutting property and activity nodes, and linking properties to the secondary or major system.

EXISTING AND PREVIOUSLY PROPOSED BIKE FACILITIES
San Jacinto’s existing bicycle facility network consists of roughly 27 miles of multi-use paths, bicycle lanes, and shared bicycle routes with 24 -
in City limits. Over 89 percent of existing facilities are shared bicycle routes located on collector and local streets. The existing facilities were reviewed for potential upgrades and missing sidewalk data will help guide future infill projects. Previously proposed projects include city-specific multi-use paths, bicycle lanes, and shared bicycle routes, as well as regional trail and multi-modal corridors.

CITY OF SAN JACINTO TRAILS MASTER PLAN

EXISTING AND PREVIOUSLY PROPOSED TRAILS
San Jacinto’s existing trail network primarily consists of class 1 multi-use paths located in the southeastern neighborhoods and portions along Ramona Expressway. Additional unpaved trails (soft-surface) used by residents and visitors include trails in the western portion of the City within the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (RCA) conserved lands and along the San Jacinto River.

The City also lies within close proximity to several other planned re 26 -
gional trail networks that once implemented, will be easily accessed by community members. The Riverside Countywide Comprehensive Trails Plan was adopted in May 2018 and includes regional and tiered trail networks that connect with the City. Tier 1 trails represent the highest priority and provide the greatest connectivity according to the County.

The Tier 1 trail identified within the City is the Juan Bautista De Anza backbone trail, planned along the San Jacinto River/ Bautista Creek Levee System. This 84.9 mile trail would eventually connect people from the City of Riverside to Anza-Borrego State Desert Park via a combination of unpaved and paved trails. Tier 2 trails provide connectivity within smaller jurisdictions. These trails can be considered as destinations themselves and often help create a network for improved connectivity to parks and other destinations. A Tier 2 trail has been identified along State Street, eventually providing connections to Gilman Hot Springs to the north, and the City of Hemet to south.

Additional trails nearby include those identified in the Lakeview-Nuevo Area Plan. These planned trails are located immediately west of San Jacinto and RCA and consist of a variety of trail types. Trail types include open space trails, regional trails, and community trails.

ANALYSIS
Analysis of existing and future conditions, as well as latent demand, is an essential step in any transportation project planning process. For this project, analysis included spatial (GIS) analysis, fieldwork, and com 30 -
munity and stakeholder input. This multi-pronged approach allowed for maximal data capture and cross-referencing of findings. For example, bicycle and pedestrian safety concerns were analyzed through collision data, including locations, frequencies and causes. Cross-referencing these collision data with public input helped to verify safety issues and identify areas for new or improved facilities.

This section is primarily concerned with explanations and discussions of the various spatial analyses employed in this project. Brief discussions of the role of fieldwork and community/stakeholder input are provided below, while the remainder is devoted to spatial analysis.

Fieldwork
The project team conducted fieldwork, using measuring tools and georeferenced photos, on several occasions. Fieldwork was conducted prior to project kick-off (to better understand existing conditions) and during project development (to verify data obtained from GIS and community/stakeholder input).

Community/Stakeholder Input
Community and stakeholder input played a very important role in developing facility and program recommendations. A summary of community and stakeholder input obtained to-date and its impact on the existing conditions analysis is included in this report.

Spatial Analysis (GIS)
Spatial analysis included simple, data-driven analyses and more complex analyses, requiring evaluations of layered information and multiple inputs. Data-driven topics include existing bicycle facilities, proposed bicycle facilities, average daily trips, activity centers, transit routes, safety analysis and bicycle-pedestrian suitability. Topics requiring more complex analysis (safety/collisions and bicycle-pedestrian routing) are discussed in more detail in their respective sections.

PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE COLLISIONS
Bicycle and pedestrian collision data were obtained from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) collision data set managed by the California Highway Patrol (CHP). This dataset captures all reported bicycle-vehicle, pedestrian-vehicle and bicycle-pedestrian collisions that resulted in injury or property damage in San Jacinto in the five-year period of 2012 through 2016. Collisions on off-street paths or highways are not reported in the data. It is important to note that collisions involving bicyclists are known to be under-reported, and therefore bicycle collisions are likely under-represented in this analysis.

During this five-year period there were a total of 49 bicycle-related collisions and 44 pedestrian-related collisions; nine of which resulted in fatalities. Bicycle-related collisions increased throughout this time period with highs in 2015 and 2016, while pedestrian-related collisions fluctuated with highs in 2014 and 2016. The bulk of both collision types resulted in the categories of Injury-Complaint of Pain (28%) or Other Visible Injury (43%). However, of all cases, 19% resulted in severe injury and 10% resulted in fatality, totaling 29% of collisions. Approximately 51 percent of collisions occurred in daylight conditions, compared to 29 percent in Dark-with Street Light, 17 percent in Dark-with no Street Light, and 3 percent in Dusk/Dawn.

Most bicycle collisions (20.4 percent) were caused by unsafe left/right turn onto roadway. The remainder of collisions were caused by a variety of driver and bicyclist violations. Of all collisions, approximately 26 percent were categorized as the fault of bicyclists, 32 percent the fault of cyclists, and 42 percent the fault of drivers.

The most dangerous intersection by number of collisions is Cottonwood Ave and Palm Ave, with 3 incidents within 5 years. Of these incidents, 2 incidents involved a driver hitting a bicyclist, and 1 incident involved a driver hitting a pedestrian.

The City’s existing bikeways are included in Figure 2-8 to provide additional background information on the location of bicycle collisions relative to the location of bikeways. For detailed collision information, please refer to Appendix D.

HEALTH AND EQUITY INDEX
Socio-economic and demographic data was analyzed to identify disad 34 -
vantaged communities by census tract. The data for this analysis is derived from California’s Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (CEHHA) CalEnviroscreen 3.0 mapping tool and UCLA’s AskCHIS mapping tool.

CalEnviroscreen 3.0 is a mapping tool that can be used to help identify California communities that are disproportionately burdened by pollution and where people are most vulnerable to its effects. It uses environmental, health, and socioeconomic information to produce scores for every census tract in the state. The online tool allows users to download GIS-based data to study how well the community they’re studying stands. The tool depicts the area’s scores: a high score means a higher pollution and environmental burden compared to areas with lower scores.

AskCHIS Neighborhood Edition (AskCHIS NE) is an online data and mapping tool that provides population health estimates. Users of AskCHIS can access authoritative health data at the zip code, city, county, and legislative district geographic levels. Estimates are powered by data from The California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) and are created through a sophisticated modeling technique called small area estimation (SAE).

Both tools help the TMP identify opportunities for low-income residents, children, seniors and the disabled, to access non-motorized transportation options. This analysis can also be used to verify that recommended facilities are addressing the transportation needs of disadvantaged residents by ensuring that their neighborhoods are being adequately served by non-motorized facilities to access important destinations like schools, parks, employment, food, and medical services.

SAN JACINTO’S CALENVIROSCREEN SCORES
Figure 2-9 depicts the CalEnviroscreen Index and the range of scores within the City’s census tracts. San Jacinto has a higher pollution burden (29.012), compared to Riverside County (27.663) and State of CA (25.312). Even without factoring in population characteristics that make certain demographics more vulnerable to pollution, San Jacinto residents in aggregate are comparatively more susceptible to pollutants and adverse environmental conditions than Riverside County and the state of California as a whole.

ASKCHIS NEIGHBORHOOD EDITION HEALTH FINDINGS
Percentage of people who walked for at least 150 minutes in the past week was 31.9% for San Jacinto, which was on par with Riverside County (31.9%), but slightly below State of CA (33.0%).

Only 17.5% of children (5-17) engaged in at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily, which is slightly lower than Riverside County overall (17.6%), and lower than State of CA (20.7%).

Twenty-nine percent of residents in San Jacinto are considered Obese (BMI ≥ 30), compared to Riverside County (26.1%) and 25.8% for State of CA.

The AskCHIS Neighborhood Edition health findings summarizes the overall amounts of physical activity and rates of obesity within the City. San Jacinto’s percentage of people (18+ years old) who walked at least 150 minutes in the past week was on par with Riverside County at 31.9%, but slightly below the state of California (33%). San Jacinto had 17.5% of children (age 5-17) engaged in at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily, which was slightly lower than Riverside County (17.6%), and lower than the state of California (20.7%). San Jacinto also has 29.4% of residents classified as Obese (BMI ≥ 30), compared to Riverside County (26.1%) and 25.8% for the state of California. In sum, San Jacinto residents relatively engage less in daily physical activity and suffer from greater rates of obesity.

FIRST-MILE LAST-MILE
First and Last Mile is the planning methodology that describes how to link people to and from transit stops to their origins and destinations.

Understanding that public transportation rarely stops directly in front of a passenger’s origin or destination is important to ensuring that transit users have the required non-motorized infrastructure to get to and from their transit stop, like walking, biking, using a wheelchair, or skateboard. These types of connections are referred to as “first and last mile” methods of travel.

This First and Last Mile analysis employs GIS mapping methods to de 36 -
termine walking and biking distances to transit stops based on actual street and sidewalk data. Furthermore, the TMP employs methodologies and recommendations from RTA’s First and Last Mile Mobility Plan.

The Mobility Plan provides valuable information and tools for understanding and improving Western Riverside’s First and Last Mile connections such as:
• Develops a set of Station Typologies to characterize all 2,500+ stations • Identifies various strategies to improve First and Last Mile access • Develops recommendations and templates for each Station Typology The TMP uses the information from the Mobility Plan to provide preliminary recommendations on how to improve first and last mile connections to transit stops within the City. The City can refer to the Mobility Plan for any additional analysis outside of the TMP.

To better understand pedestrian and bicycle issues throughout RTA’s system, all stations were organized into six categories corresponding to six common environments for walking and bicycling to and from transit stops. These categories were based primarily on the existing land-use and transportation characteristics of the areas surrounding the stations. Due to the size of the catchment area and data limitations, analysis was performed with datasets that were readily available.

Categorizing the stations into typologies allows an understanding of the range of conditions that exist throughout RTA’s service area within the City. These typologies will assist in developing the various treatments and strategies (or “tools”) for each station type that will provide guidance on improving first and last mile conditions around transit stops.

The first part of the analysis begins with getting a general understanding of the walking and bicycling distances from the City’s transit stops.

Figure 2-10 depicts those distances based on a 1/2-mile walkshed (blue color) and a 3-mile bikeshed (green color). The map shows that almost all of the City’s schools and parks are within a 1/2-mile walking distance to transit stops. The map also shows that nearly the entire city is within a 3-mile biking distance to transit stops.

CITY OF SAN JACINTO TRAILS MASTER PLAN
The next step of the analysis is to classify the transit stops based on the station types developed in the RTA Mobility Plan so that the City can determine the general non-motorized infrastructure needed to best serve the community.

All stations in the model are organized into six typologies correspond 38 -
ing to six common environments for walking and bicycling to and from stations and bus stops. To understand the range of conditions that exist throughout the service area, these typologies are based primarily on existing land-use and transportation characteristics of the areas surrounding the stations. These typologies will assist in developing the various treatments and strategies (or “tools”) for each station type that will provide guidance on improving first and last mile conditions around stations and bus stops.

The City of San Jacinto has three predominant station typologies: suburban, commercial district, and industrial & business park. Station characteristics are described in the following pages. In aggregate, the City can be summed up as having its citizens live in low density single family residential housing, commute to work in concentrated areas with moderate levels of employment densities, and shop in concentrated corridors. In all three development patterns, the built environment is characterized as having very low land use mix, therefore necessitating commutes between land-use categories on a regular basis. The scale of the City’s car-centric development pattern creates distances that make most of the commutes extend beyond pedestrian walkability. The environments are accommodating to motorized vehicles due to generous parking, larger arterial roads, and longer block lengths among other factors. However, the majority of facilities for alternative modes of transportation (biking, mass transit, walking) can best be described as having poor or non-existent connectivity.

Common recommendations for similar development patterns include biking and pedestrian network improvements for connectivity, crossing treatments for safer pedestrian travel, wayfinding and information for more efficient travel, placemaking and bus stop enhancements for better experiences, car-sharing for reducing individual burdens of car ownership, and transit-oriented development (TOD) for reducing the necessity of cars for commuting between different land uses.

SUBURBAN
The suburban typology is commonly defined by moderate to low density single family residential with non-linear street patterns and very little land use mix. Demographically, it consists of low to moderate population and employment densities and low commuter transit ridership.

Due to the nature of the street network, many pedestrian and bicycle facilities are either poorly or not connected. This auto-centric typology overall supports moderate transit ridership, transit frequency rates, and route options.

General Recommendations
• Wayfinding and information
• Bicycle network improvements
• Pedestrian network improvements
• Bus stop enhancements
• Carsharing
• Transit-Oriented
Development (TOD)
• Placemaking

Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan CHAPTER 2 | EXISTING CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
39 COMMERCIAL
The Commercial typology is typical of Southern California commercial developments. They’re distributed along major corridors or concentrated within one particular area, with large quantities of parking and minimal to non-existent bicycle connectivity. Some of these commercial areas may also include community services, such as recreation centers and even municipal buildings. These stations have moderate levels of population and employment densities. There is very low land use mix, with low-density residential or industrial land uses typically adjacent to these commercial centers.

General Recommendations
• Wayfinding and information
• Bicycle network improvements
• Pedestrian network improvements
• Ridesharing
• Bus stop enhancements
• Transit-Oriented
Development (TOD)
• Placemaking

INDUSTRIAL AND BUSINESS PARKS
The Industrial and Business Park typology typically utilizes large areas of land which limits the diversity of land uses. Stations (bus stops) along this typology have low boarding and lighting levels due to the longer block lengths, larger arterial roads, higher truck volumes and low to non-existent pedestrian scale lighting. There are moderate levels of non-motorized commute trips with moderate to high levels of population and employment densities.

General Recommendations
• Bicycle network improvements
• Ride-sharing
• Bike-sharing
• Bus Stop enhancements
• Transportation Demand
Management (TDM) options
• Transit Oriented
Development (TOD)

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT OVERVIEW
The community engagement strategies for the TMP involved a vari 42 -
ety of conventional and digital tools to encourage people to participate in the planning process. Several stakeholders, most notably the Green Coalition, played a vital role in announcing and participating in the community workshops. The following sections describe the TMP’s community engagement approach.

OUTREACH MATERIALS
A variety of outreach materials were designed to maximize public engagement. Because of San Jacinto’s multi-generational and diverse population, all outreach materials were designed in both paper form and digitally, as well as in English and Spanish. Spanish-speaking team members were present at all workshops.

SURVEY
A survey was prepared to determine satisfaction levels of current pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, as well as desired improvements.

The survey asked people a variety of trail, walking, and bicycling questions, and prompted them to provide both general and site-specific comments. The survey also directed people to an online map that allowed them to place comments on streets and intersections. The online map was used extensively in the first half of the planning process, providing the project team valuable information.

The survey was first announced at the community workshop and was available to the public through the last community workshop on August 15, 2018. The survey’s data was used to gain a general understanding of existing trail, walking, and bicycling issues. The data was also used as a factor for GIS analyses, such as project recommendations and prioritization. A detailed summary of the survey’s results are included in Appendix A.

BRANDING
To generate public interest and to create a unique
identity, the team branded
the project with a logo designed specifically for this project with the colors found
in the City’s logo and website. The mountains and hills that surround the City, the
multi-modal goals of the
TMP, and the community
were used as inspiration for
the logo and colors.

The project’s branding was used in all outreach materials, including flyers, surveys, online map, and workshop exhibits.

43 ONLINE MAP
An online comment map was created as a supplemental input method that San Jacinto residents and stakeholders could use to highlight location-specific constraints and opportunities. It provided the option to attach photos and describe whether the comment was a trail, pedestrian, bicycle, or “other” issue. All points were automatically geo-referenced, and allowed anyone to see where others had similar issues. This platform allowed the team and the City to efficiently document and analyze comments identified by the community.

FLYERS, POSTCARDS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
Community engagement materials for the workshops included fact sheets and flyers. These materials were designed using the project’s branding and were printed in both English and Spanish. These mate 44 -
rials were distributed prior to and during the workshops to encourage participation and invite people to share their thoughts.

COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS
Three community workshops were scheduled at key milestones in the project’s planning process to communicate goals, objectives, and present preliminary results. These workshops allowed the team to efficiently reach out to large numbers of community members in a setting with guaranteed attendance.

Workshop #1: Conventional Workshop
The first workshop took place on Saturday, November 4, 2017 at the Valley-Wide Regional Park. The focus of the first workshop was to introduce the project and present the TMP’s goals and objectives. This entailed sharing with the community the planning process, the type of information that was going to be analyzed, and to gather initial community feedback regarding trail, path, walking, and bicycling improvements.

The workshop began with a short presentation at the beginning of the workshop, followed by open-house style interaction. The Green Coalition provided healthy snacks and refreshments, as well as valuable feedback.

Free bike lights were handed out and four bike helmets were raffled off.

The information gathered at this workshop provided valuable direction regarding where to focus the data-gathering and analyses process.

Workshop #2: Conventional Workshop
The second workshop took place on Thursday, March 29, 2018. The workshop was once again held at the Valley-Wide Regional Park. This workshop focused on presenting preliminary corridor recommendations and sharing with the community the corridors that had been identified for potential trail, path, walking, and bicycling improvements.

Workshop Flyers in English and Spanish
The workshop began with a short presentation at the beginning of the workshop, followed by open-house style interaction. The Green Coalition provided healthy snacks and refreshments, as well as valuable feedback.

The information gathered at this workshop confirmed which corridors were correctly identified for new improvements, as well as which corridors needed to be added, or adjusted, for the team to analyze.

Workshop #3: Pop-up Workshop
The third workshop took place on Wednesday, August 15, 2018. The team participated in the Kool August Nights concert series held at the Estudillo Mansion. This event allowed the team to present the proposed recommendations to the community and receive feedback. Free bike lights were handed out and five bike helmets were raffled off.

45 This pop-up workshop allowed the team to interact with the community in a setting that allowed people to comfortably and quickly provide their feedback. Similarly to the second workshop, the information gathered at this event allowed community members to provide their thoughts on which projects were correctly and incorrectly identified.

The information was used to edit proposed projects as-needed and in preparation for the draft document to be presented to the Planning Commission and City Council.

Planning Commission and City Council Presentations
The team presented the draft TMP to the Planning Commission on September 17, 2018. The Planning Commission received copies of the draft TMP the week prior to provide time to review and comment on plan.

The presentation consisted of an overview of the goals and objectives of the TMP, the planning process, community engagement, and prioritized projects.

The Planning Commission provided positive feedback to the team and City regarding the TMP’s process and proposed projects. The members of the Commission received and filed the TMP.

The team presented the draft TMP to City Council on October 16, 2018.

The City Council also provided overall positive feedback on the information presented and the planning process. They suggested adding the following information to the report:
• Maintenance costs
• Regional mobility projects
• Resources and information on evolving state of mobility options such as bikeshare and scootershare
• Additional discussion on phasing specific to proposed equestrian trails adjacent to multi-use paths

49 SURVEY RESULTS
The survey questions were designed to develop a general understanding of the community’s thoughts and opinions about
trails, walking, and bicycling. A
total of 13 questions were asked,
many of which included the option to provide additional comments related to the question.

Most questions allowed respondents to select more than one category, resulting in totals that
exceeded 100 percent.

With over 200 survey responses,
the results provided helpful insight to important issues that will be used to guide the recommendations and prioritization process.

FEATURES, FACILITIES, AND RECOMMENDATIONS OVERVIEW
54 TRAIL HEADS
Trail heads are non-vehicular neighborhood access points connecting the Reserve trail system with the surrounding communities that can also function as rest and orientation points, especially where two or more trails meet. They are smaller and have fewer facilities than staging areas, but should provide users the following limited features:
• Seating (Benches)
• Hitching posts
• Shade trees
• Directional signs
• Water for hikers, cyclists, riders, dogs and horses (optional) • No parking
Chapter 4 discusses the proposed physical projects and programs that will enhance and provide new access to trails, walking, and bicycling in San Jacinto. Chapter 4 begins with a discussion of the facilities in use throughout California and the United States, followed by how projects were developed and assessed for feasibility and priority. The project list includes both short-term and long-term improvements, and is meant to serve as a guide to help the City allocate funds as they become available through various sources. This chapter contains maps and tables that communicate details such as location, extent, and type. A discussion in phasing and implementation is also included.

The relationship between physical and program-based projects go hand-in-hand. It is encouraged that both be coordinated and thought of as partnerships to maximize implementation. Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, Engineering, Evaluation, and Equity-based programs can be used to leverage investments to implement proposed projects. Similarly, the effectiveness of these multi-modal programs is elevated by actual project implementation. Likewise, changes to City standards, codes, and policies may be needed to implement the improvements proposed in the TMP.

TRAIL AND PATH FEATURES
One of the primary goals of the TMP is to provide guidance to the potential establishment of a sustainable trails system serving the City of San Jacinto and the surrounding communities. Such a system’s design features may include associated amenities such as trail heads, vista points, surface treatments, plant material, bridges, fencing and signage, to name a few. This system can be comprised of natural surface trail and paved path development, or both, depending on location specifics.

55 STAGING AREAS
Staging areas are to be provided at multiple locations roughly equidistant around the Reserve perimeter. They are intended to provide parking and trail access for other than local neighborhood users, particularly for those driving to the Reserve from the surrounding region.

They should provide users the following:
• Shade trees (or optional shade structure)
• Seating (benches)
• Picnic tables
• Bicycle racks (no long-term storage)
• Fencing and hitching rail
• Small corral
• Water for hikers, cyclists, riders, dogs and horses
• Entry road drive and monumentation
• Interpretive and directional signage
• Trash receptacles
• Off–street parking
• Portable toilets (2) or as needed for special events
• Restrooms (optional)
• Minimal security lighting (optional)
• Pull-through spaces for 15 horse trailers (at specific staging areas) • Corral or horse tie-ups (at specific staging areas)
• Landscaping (as needed)

REST AREAS, TURNOUTS AND VISTA POINTS
Rest Areas
Periodic rest areas are beneficial for all shared-use path or trail users, particularly for people with mobility impairments who typically expend more effort to walk. Rest areas are especially crucial when grade or cross slope demands increase. The frequency of rest areas should vary depending on the terrain and intended use and heavily used shareduse paths or trails should have more frequent rest opportunities. Rest areas provide an opportunity for users to move off the trail or path, instead of remaining on it to stop and rest. Having separate rest areas on both sides of the trail or path is preferred when there is a higher volume or higher traffic speeds as it reduces trail and path users’ need to cross in front of other users. If a rest area is only provided on one side of the trail or path, it should be on the uphill side. In general, rest areas should have the following design characteristics:
56 • Grades not exceeding five percent
• Cross slopes on paved surfaces not to exceed two percent and cross slopes on non-paved surfaces not to exceed five percent • Firm and stable surface
• Width equal to or greater than the width of the trail segment leading to and from the rest area • Minimum length of 86 inches
• Minimal grade and cross slope change where connecting with pathway
Seating can be particularly important for people with disabilities and who may have difficulty getting up from a seated position on the ground. Some seating should have backrests to provide support when resting and at least one armrest to provide support to help disabled users resume a standing position. Accessible seating should provide the same benefits as seating for users without disabilities. For example, providing space for a wheelchair facing away from an attractive view would not be appropriate.

Turnouts
A turnout is defined as either a widened section of trail that allows faster traffic to pass or a side path that allows users to pull over and rest off the main trail. Turnouts should have:
• Widened pathway
• Seating (bench)
• Shade trees and native vegetation
• Directional and/or mileage signs
• Trash receptacle
• Fencing as needed
• Vista Points
This is a type of turnout/rest area specifically focused on scenic views, overlooks. Vista points will have similar features as turnouts. In general, interpretive signage may be especially appropriate at culturally significant viewpoints.

57 SHADE STRUCTURES
A shade structure is an open frame design that may be provided as an option at staging areas. However, wherever possible, shade is planned to be provided by trees, especially native species.

RESTROOMS
Portable toilets are an interim facility that may be provided in the early years of a staging area’s development. Portable toilets may also be brought in temporarily for special events. A restroom or comfort station building is an optional facility that may be provided at a later date at a staging area if demand warrants it.

FENCING
Fencing may be necessary to protect sensitive resources, however, it may draw attention to an otherwise concealed resource. If the intent is to keep users on the route away from the resource, other methods may be more effective, especially careful route design that maximizes users’ experience, which fencing can significantly degrade. In particular, route design can be managed to limit visual access and even to direct views away from sensitive resources, particularly by manipulating trail horizontal and vertical alignment and installing landscaping. Fencing should be regarded as a last resort. Four general conditions are defined below, with applicable fencing standards.

None Needed
The majority of the multi-use paths and trails in the TMP area falls into this category.

Low Security
This fencing provides a minimal level of access control and is intended to blend with its surroundings in an aesthetic manner. It would be used in areas where trespass is not likely, but where adjacent uses, sensitive species or habitats would benefit from some assurance from distur 58 -
bance. This fencing type would be wood with wood cross members or galvanized cable between the posts. It would be roughly waist high and at least 42 inches high if adjacent to shared-use paths. This type of fencing would be applicable between multi-use paths and a roadway.

Medium Security
This fencing would be used for more stringent access control, such as immediately adjacent to sensitive private properties or other land uses where more positive access control is desired. This fencing would be six feet tall and be designed to exclude humans and dogs. It could be standard galvanized chain link or may be coated if a less conspicuous appearance is desired. In general, matte black is the least visually prominent compared to bare galvanizing.

Packet Pg. 1307
Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan CHAPTER 4 | RECOMMENDATIONS
59 High Security
This fence type would be relatively costly and so would be used only where necessary due to adjacent land uses or hazards from which trail users must be restricted. This fencing would be eight feet tall and likely to be galvanized or powder-coated welded metal designed to be difficult to climb. This is usually accomplished with closely spaced vertical heavy gauge wire or very closely spaced horizontal wire, both of which eliminate the need for horizontal members that could provide hand or toe holds. Conventional picket fencing may also be appropriate.

Decorative Fencing and Gates
Fencing can serve multiple purposes along trail facilities, including access control, visual screening, channeling of trail users and reducing liability concerns. Where fencing and gates are needed, they can help reinforce the desired trail theme and brand. Decorative fencing can add visual interest to a trail and could be used as gateway elements or adjacent to neighborhoods to help establish the trail as a unique and memorable place.

LANDSCAPING
Where installed, landscaping will be confined to developed areas along the trails, primarily at staging areas and trail heads. All planting should be regional native species and native trees are planned as the primary shading method. Additional native shrub plantings should be incorpo 60 -
rated into these locations where needed to help integrate them with surrounding habitats and for visual screening where needed.

SITE FURNISHINGS
Site furnishings such as drinking fountains, benches, shade structures, trash receptacles and bicycle parking can have design qualities that reinforce a Reserve theme. A consistent family of furnishings supports continuity and reinforces the overall trail system look and feel. There are a wide variety of options to choose from in terms of style and materials. Selections should be based on the desired trail system theme, as well as life cycle costs.

61 PUBLIC ART
Creative applications for an inspirational art program that both provides beauty and learning opportunities can help reinforce the Reserve brand or a “sense of place.” Local artists can be commissioned to provide art for the trail system, making it unique, entertaining and memorable. Themes should draw from the local natural and cultural environment. Many trail art installations function as or are incorporated into signs, benches, shelters, or even pavement surface.

LIGHTING
Lighting allows specific areas to be used at night and provides safety for trail users. Lighting should be considered at staging areas only.

Lighting should not be considered where nighttime use is not expected, next to sensitive wildlife habitat areas, or adjacent to residential neighborhoods near the proposed trail system. In general, lighting is not recommended beyond what is deemed absolutely necessary.

There are a wide variety of lighting options to choose from in terms of style and material selection, as well as energy efficiency. As appropriate, dark sky-compliant lighting should be selected to minimize light pollution cast into the sky while maximizing light cast onto the ground.

Solar powered light fixtures should be utilized where possible for new installations or for retrofit projects.

TRAFFIC CONTROL AND WAYFINDING SIGNAGE AND MARKINGS
Signs that clearly describe the shared-use route conditions are an es 62 -
sential component to enhance access. Signs should be provided in an easy to understand graphic format with limited text. Instead of using relative terms like “difficult” or “easy,” providing accurate, objective information about actual trail conditions will allow people to assess their own interests, experience and skills and to determine whether a particular route is appropriate or provides access to them if they use assistive devices. Providing users with route condition information is strongly recommended for the following reasons:
• Users are less likely to find themselves in unsafe situations if they understand route demands before beginning.
• Frustration is reduced and people are less likely to have to turn around on a trail because they can identify impassible situations, such as steep grades, before they begin.
• Users can select trails that meet their skill level and desired experience. • The level of satisfaction increases because the user is able to select a route that meets his or her expectations.
• If more difficult conditions will be encountered, users can prepare for the skill level and equipment required.

Objective information about the route conditions (e.g., grade, cross slope, surface, width, obstacles) is preferable to subjective difficulty ratings (e.g., easier, most difficult). Because subjective ratings of difficulty typically represent the perceptions of the person making the assessment, the ratings may not be accurate or appropriate for the full range of route users. Individuals with respiratory or heart conditions, as well as individuals with mobility impairments, are more likely to have different interpretations of route difficulty than other users.

A variety of information formats can be used to convey objective route information. The format type should conform to management agency policy. Written information should also be provided in alternative formats, such as Braille, large print, or an audible format. For example, signage text can also be made available using digital means, such as via Quick Response (QR) tags. In addition, simplified text and reliance on universal graphic symbols will provide information to individuals with limited reading abilities.

The type and extent of the information provided will vary depending on the trail, environmental conditions and expected users. It is recommended that the following information be objectively measured and conveyed to the user through appropriate information formats as necessary for the particular route:
• Route name and length
• Permitted users (if applicable)
• Elevation change over total length and maximum elevation obtained • Average running grade and maximum grades that will be encountered • Average and maximum cross slopes
• Surface type
• Surface firmness, stability and slip-resistance
Project signage may include directional, destination, distance, regulatory/advisory and interpretive. Directional and other typical signage will occur primarily at staging areas, trail heads and anywhere users may conveniently intersect the route system.

A comprehensive signage system ensures that information is provided regarding safe and appropriate use. Signage should establish consistency for the style, font and colors used on all signage and to present a unified appearance to promote organization and branding of the Reserve trails as a unified system.

Three basic sign types are proposed: regulatory, wayfinding and interpretive. For all but regulatory signs, the signage for this plan area should be comprehensively designed as a definitive signature element that ties the experience of this segment together with the rest of the Riverside County trail system. Reserve has a variety of existing signage.

Packet Pg. 1311
Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan CHAPTER 4 | RECOMMENDATIONS
63 Regulatory
Regulatory signage must conform to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways (MUTCD) and the AASHTO Guide for the Planning, Design and Operation of Pedestrian Facilities.

Regulatory signs should state route usage rules and regulations associated, as well as identify the managing agency, organization or group.

The route regulations message should promote both user safety and enjoyment. It is important to post route use regulations at key access points such as staging areas and trail heads, as well as through the use of maps and informational materials. Route signage should also be coordinated with County and adjacent city networks.

Typical Route Regulation Signs:
• Route identification, reassurance and confirmation
• Guidance and distance to trail destinations and key points of interest • Safety features and user safety
• Warnings of known hazards
• Hours of use
• Pedestrian, bicycle, equestrian and vehicular control • Dog leash requirements
• Alcoholic beverages are not permitted
• No smoking allowed
• Notice of restrictions where use control is necessary • Do not wander off of trail onto adjacent properties
• Protection of resources

Directional Signs
Directional and other typical signage will occur primarily at staging ar 64 -
eas, trail heads and anywhere users may conveniently intersect the route system. Directional signs provide route and distance information to major destinations and amenities. Directional signs should be installed at access points and major intersections. In additions, roadway names should be evident wherever shared-use pathways or natural surface trails cross them.

Distance Markers
Trail or path markers provide users the visual assurance that they are on a specific route. They can double as distance markers on a regular interval of at least once per mile or every half mile. Distance markers are useful for both user and first responder orientation.

KIOSKS
Kiosks provide visitors with information to orient themselves, learn of site opportunities, rules and regulations, hours of operation, and local events such as volunteer activities for the Reserve trail system. Kiosk design and style should coordinate with the character and branding developed for the overall sign system. The kiosk should be readily identifiable as an information source and provide elements such as bulletin boards, regional maps, rules and regulations and accessibility advisories.

65 INTERPRETIVE AND EDUCATIONAL SIGNAGE
Interpretive signs enhance the trail or path experience by providing information about the area’s history and culture. Signs may feature local ecology, people, environmental issues and other educational information. They may be placed at scenic view areas or in relation to specific elements being interpreted. They can take on many forms including textual messages, plaques, markers, panels and demonstrations.

Interpretive signage may occur almost anywhere to coincide with a point of public interest, but will likely be more condensed at the staging areas, trail heads and vista points where users are more likely to spend time off the actual trail or path surface resting or enjoying the view. Because interpretive signs need to relate directly to site needs, no specific guidelines have been established for their format. However, interpretive signs should be concise and an integral part of an overall area sign plan, including the wayfinding signs mentioned previously.

They can also include supplementary information via QR tags.

BRIDGES
Bridges create opportunities for overlooks, habitat protection, loop trails and trail connections, as well as provide maintenance, operational and emergency service access. Riparian crossings may be needed within the Reserve, especially along the lower slopes. Likely potential use, cost-effectiveness and physical constraints will drive location selection.

BOARDWALKS
Boardwalks are commonly used to span sensitive areas such as riparian zones, unavoidable wet areas or depressions. They can also be used to provide trail access in areas where grading and filling may harm tree roots or create trail surfaces that wildlife will not cross. Boardwalks should be considered in relation to environmental impacts, available budget, potential user needs, operations and management issues. 66 DRAINAGE CROSSINGS
The trail system may require small drainage crossing structures. To minimize potential impacts, trail or path design shall give careful consideration to ponding and the prevention of erosive fill blocking existing drainage patterns. Drainage structures may require review and permitting from agencies such as the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Regional Water Quality Control Board.

67 BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN TREATMENTS
While not universally applied, in general, pedestrian travel in urban areas has long tended to be accommodated with features like sidewalks, crosswalks, dedicated signals, and curb extensions. The proposed pedestrian treatments in the TMP address a wide variety of issues identified in the analysis and community engagement process. The recommendations include enhanced connectivity to parks, transit, senior zones, activity centers, and other community destinations. The pedestrian recommendations are critical to ensuring equitable multi-modal transportation because it serves the populations that may not be able to bike, and instead rely on transit and walking. Newer innovations like pedestrian scrambles, modified signal timing, flashing beacons, and other pedestrian improvements are explained in this chapter in addition to standard pedestrian treatments.

A focus on providing for safer, less stressful bicycle travel has occurred much more recently. Especially over the past five years, the state of practice for bicycle travel in the United States has undergone a significant transformation. Much of this may be attributed to bicycling’s changing role in the overall transportation system. No longer viewed as an “alternative” mode, it is increasingly considered as legitimate transportation that should be actively promoted as a means of achieving community environmental, social, and economic goals. While connectivity and convenience remain essential bicycle travel quality indicators, recent research indicates the increased acceptance and practice of daily bicycling will require “low-stress” bicycle routes, which are typically understood to be those that provide bicyclists with separation from high volume and high speed vehicular traffic. The route types recommended by this plan, and described in the following section, are consistent with this evolving state of practice.

CONVENTIONAL BICYCLE TREATMENTS
There are four conventional bicycle route types recognized by the CA Department of Transportation. Details of their design, associated way 68 -
finding, and pavement markings can be found in the CA MUTCD and CA Highway Design Manual.

Class I: Multi-Use Paths
Class I multi-use paths (frequently referred to as “bicycle paths”) are physically separated from motor vehicle travel routes, with exclusive rights-of-way for non-motorized users like bicyclists and pedestrians.

Class II: Bicycle Lanes
Bicycle lanes are one-way route types that carry bicycle traffic in the same direction as the adjacent motor vehicle traffic. They are typically located along the right side of the street, between the adjacent travel lane and curb, road edge, or parking lane.

4.1.g
Packet Pg. 1317
Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan CHAPTER 4 | RECOMMENDATIONS
69 Class III: Bicycle Routes
A bicycle route is a suggested bicycle path of travel marked by signs designating a preferred path between destinations. They are recommended where traffic volumes and roadway speeds are fairly low (35 mph or less).

Class IV: Separated Bikeways (Cycle Tracks)
Separated bikeways are bicycle-specific routes that combine the user experience of a multi-use path with the on-street infrastructure of a conventional bicycle lane. Separated bikeways are physically separated from motor vehicle traffic and designed to be distinct from any adjoining sidewalk. The variety of physical protection measures can include raised curbs, parkway strips, reflective bollards, or parked vehicles.

Separated bikeways can be either one-way or two-way, depending on the street network, available right-of-way and adjacent land use, but the safety of two-way separated bikeways must be carefully evaluated, especially if they cross motor vehicle routes. This is because few motor vehicle drivers are accustomed to two-way Separated bikeways and they may tend to look to the left only when deciding whether it is safe to proceed across the separated bikeways.

ENHANCED BICYCLE TREATMENTS
While the conventional bicycle route types can be found throughout the United States, there has been a distinct shift towards further en 70 -
hancement. For example, the CA MUTCD has approved the installation of buffered bicycle lanes, while Shared Lane Markings or “Sharrows” have been in use since 2008 throughout the State.

These enhancements are low cost, easy to install, and provide additional awareness about the likely presence of bicyclists. In many instances, installation of these bicycle route enhancements can be coordinated as part of street resurfacing projects. The use of green paint has also become a simple and effective way to communicate the likely presence of bicyclists. It is also used to denote potential conflict zones between bicyclists and vehicles.

Buffered Bicycle Lanes
Buffered bicycle lanes provide additional space between the bicycle lane and traffic lane, parking lane, or both, to provide a more protected and comfortable space for bicyclists than a conventional bicycle lane.

The buffering also encourages bicyclists to avoid riding too close to parked vehicles, keeping them out of the “door zone” where there is the potential danger of drivers or passengers suddenly opening doors into the bicyclists’ path.

71 Shared Lane Markings (“Sharrows”)
The shared lane marking is commonly used where parking is allowed adjacent to the travel lane. It is now common practice to center them within the typical vehicular travel route in the rightmost travel lane to ensure adequate separation between bicyclists and parked vehicles. Many cities install sharrows over a green background to enhance visibility.

Bike Boxes
A bike box is a designated area at the head of a traffic lane at a signalized intersection that provides bicyclists a safe and visible way to wait ahead of queuing traffic during the red signal phase. This positioning helps encourage bicyclists traveling straight through not to wait against the curb for the signal change.

LOW STRESS BICYCLE TREATMENTS
There are a number of other non-conventional route types that the City may find useful in specific situations. In many cases, the conventional bicycle route types previously mentioned may not meet the commu 72 -
nity’s perceptions of safe and comfortable bikeways. Protected, lowstress streets, and bicycle-prioritized routes are constantly revised and improving to meet the communities needs.

The improvements described in this section have been implemented in other states in the United States as well as other countries with great success and are quickly becoming standard recommendations.

Details of these route types and other treatments can be found in the NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide or AASHTO Guide of the Development of Bicycle Facilities.

Bicycle Boulevards
Bicycle boulevards provide a convenient, low-stress cycling environment for people of all ages and abilities. They are installed on streets with low vehicular volumes and speeds and often parallel higher volume, higher speed arterials. Bicycle boulevard treatments use a combination of signs, pavement markings and traffic calming measures that help to discourage through trips by motor vehicle drivers and create safe, convenient bicycle crossings of busy arterial streets.

Signage and Wayfinding
Signage and wayfinding on all streets and bicycle routes are intended to identify routes to both bicyclists and drivers, provide destination information and branding, and to inform all users of changes in roadway conditions.

73 Colored Bicycle Lanes
Colored pavement increases the visibility of bicycle routes, identifying potential areas of conflict, and reinforces bicyclists’ priority in these areas. Colored pavement can be used as a corridor treatment, along the length of a bicycle lane or within a protected bikeway. Additionally, it can be used as a spot treatment, such as crossing markings at particularly complex intersections where the bicycle path may be unclear.

Consistent application of color across a bikeway corridor is important to promote clear understanding for all roadway users.

Green Intersection Conflict Striping
Intersection crossing markings indicate the intended path of bicyclists.

Colored striping can be used to highlight conflict areas between bicyclists and vehicles, such as where bicycle lanes merge across motor vehicle turn lanes.

Protected Intersections
Protected intersections maintain integrity (low-stress experience) of their adjoining separated bicycle lanes by fully separating bicyclists from motor vehicles. Hallmark features of these protected intersec 74 -
tions include a two-stage crossing supported by an advance queuing space, protective concrete islands, special bike-cross markings (parallel with crosswalks), and special signal phasing.

Two-Stage Turn Queue Box
Two-stage turn queue boxes can provide a more comfortable left-turn crossing for many bicyclists because they entail two simple crossings, rather than one complex one. They also provide a degree of separation from vehicular traffic, because they do not require merging with vehicle traffic to make left turns. Bicyclists wanting to make a left turn can continue into the intersection when they have a green light and pull into the green bike box. Bicyclists then turn 90 degrees to face their intended direction and wait for a green light to continue through.

75 Bicycle Signals
This category includes all types of traffic signals directed at bicyclists.

These can include typical green/yellow/red signals with signage explaining the signal controls, or special bikeway icons displayed within the signage lights themselves. Near-side bicycle signals may incorporate a “countdown to green” display, as well as a “countdown to red.” Bicycle Detection
Bicycle detection is used at intersections with traffic signals to alert the signal controller that a bicycle crossing event has been requested. Bicycle detection occurs either through the use of push buttons or by automated means.

TRAFFIC CALMING
Traffic calming involves changes in street alignment, installation of bar 76 -
riers, and other physical measures to reduce traffic speeds and/or cutthrough motor vehicle traffic volumes. The intent of traffic calming is to alter driver behavior and to improve street safety, livability, and other public purposes. Other techniques consist of operational measures such as police enforcement and speed displays. The following examples are traffic calming measures that may apply to San Jacinto.

Roundabouts / Traffic Circles
A roundabout is a circular intersection with yield control at its entry that allows a driver to proceed at controlled speeds in a counter-clockwise direction around a central island. Roundabouts are designed to maximize motorized and non-motorized traffic through their innovative design that includes reconfigured sidewalks, bikeway bypasses, high-visibility crosswalks, pedestrian flashing beacons, and other traffic measures. Roundabouts can be implemented on most streets, but may require additional right-of-way.

A traffic circle is a traffic calming measure commonly applied at uncontrolled intersections throughout low volume, local residential streets.

They lower traffic speeds on each approach and typically avoid or reduce right-of-way conflicts because the overall footprint is smaller compared to roundabouts. Traffic circles may be installed using simple markings or raised islands, but are best accompanied with drought-tolerant landscaping or other attractive vertical elements.

77 Signals and Warning Devices
Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons (PHBs) and Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) are special signals used to warn and control traffic at unsignalized locations to assist pedestrians and cyclists in crossing a street via a marked crosswalk. Either of these devices should be installed at locations that experience high pedestrian volumes and that connect people to popular destinations such as schools, parks, and retail.

These signals should be paired with additional pedestrian improvements, where appropriate, such as curb extensions, enhanced crosswalk marking, lighting, median refuge islands, and corresponding signage.

Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons (PHB)
PHB’s are typically used on large, multi-lane, high-volume streets or trail crossings. To activate, a person must push a button that initiates a sequence of light phases that alerts drivers they must stop to allow the person to cross. The PHB will flash a yellow light, then display a solid red light. During the solid red light, drivers must be completely stopped to allow the people to cross. The PHB will then flash red, allowing drivers to proceed once the person has safely crossed the street.

Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB)
RRFB’s are typically used on smaller, low-volume streets or trail crossings. To activate, a person must push a button that initiates a sequence of rapid flashing yellow lights that alerts drivers that they must stop to allow the person to cross. The RRFB will intensely flash during the entire crossing phase, providing ample time for people to safely cross the street. Drivers can proceed through the crossing once people have safely crossed the street.

Speed Tables/Raised Crosswalk
Speed tables are flat-topped road humps, often constructed with tex 78 -
tured surfacing on the flat section. Speed tables and raised crosswalks help to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance pedestrian safety.

Speed Displays
Speed displays measure the speed of approaching vehicles by radar and inform drivers of their speeds using an LED display. Speed displays contribute to increased traffic safety because they are particularly effective in reducing the speed of vehicles traveling ten or more miles per hour over the speed limit.

79 Chicanes
Chicanes are a series of narrowing or curb extensions that alternate from one side of the street to the other forming S-shaped curves. Chicanes slow down drivers by causing them to shift their horizontal path of travel.

Traffic Diverters
A traffic diverter is a roadway design feature placed in a roadway to prohibit vehicular traffic from entering into or exiting a street.

On-Street Edge Friction
Edge friction is a combination of vertical elements such as on-street parking, bicycle routes, chicanes, site furnishings, street trees, and shrubs that reduce the perceived street width, which has been shown to reduce motor vehicle speeds.

PEDESTRIAN TREATMENTS
Many streets in San Jacinto already have sidewalks, especially within newer neighborhoods, however; it is important to evaluate the net 80 -
work to see if appropriate sidewalk widths and ADA compliant curb ramps are present. While many intersections are signalized and crosswalks exist, there are some segments with long blocks without convenient crossing places. Providing crossing treatments will help reduce “jaywalking” and unsafe mid-block crossings.

Enhanced Crosswalk Markings
Enhanced crosswalk markings can be installed at existing or proposed crosswalk locations. They are designed to both guide pedestrians and to alert drivers of a crossing location. The bold pattern is intended to enhance visual awareness.

Curb Extensions
Also called bulb-outs or neck-downs, curb extensions extend the curb line outward into the travel way, reducing the width of the street. Typically occurring at intersections, they increase pedestrian visibility, reduce the distance a pedestrian must cross, and reduce vehicular delay.

Curb extensions must be installed in locations where they won’t interfere with bicycle lanes or separated bikeways. If both treatments are needed, then additional design features such as ramps, or half-sized curb extensions should be considered.

81 Lighting
Pedestrian-scale lighting provides many practical and safety benefits.

Installing pedestrian-scale lighting may improve the perceived safety concerns about walking and bicycling during non-daylight hours.

Lighting can installed along busy walking and bicycling corridors. The City can select standard lighting fixtures or design them to be unique and artistic statements of the public realm.

Refuge Island
Refuge islands provide pedestrians and bicyclists a relatively safe place within intersection and mid-block crossings to wait if they are unable to complete their crossing in one movement.

Mid-block Crossings
Mid-block crossings provide convenient locations for pedestrians and bicyclists to cross thoroughfares in areas with infrequent intersection crossings or where the nearest intersection creates substantial out-of-direction travel. Mid-block crossings should be paired with additional traffic-control devices such as PHBs, LED enhanced flashing signs, and refuge islands.

Senior Zones
An area identified as a senior zone by the City can be enhanced with street signage, increased crossing times at traffic signals, benches, bus stops with shelters, and pedestrian lighting.

PLACEMAKING
The inclusion of urban elements such as parklets and community gardens encourages walking and provides usable space for all ages. In many cities, these urban elements have helped to transform urban villages and downtowns into walkable destinations. Coordinating with local San Jacinto businesses and organizations may provide collaborative design and funding opportunities between the City, its businesses, and residents.

85 PROPOSED RECOMMENDATIONS
This section addresses the physical recommendations to help improve San Jacinto’s trail, walking, and bicycling environment. These recommendations include many of the facility types and amenities referenced at the beginning of this chapter. Subsequent sections discuss the associated programs that help support the TMP’s long term goals.

Figure 4-1 depicts the proposed projects, labeled according to facility type. Table 4-1 lists the proposed trail, pedestrian, and bicycle projects with information such as location, route type, extent, and notes. The notes provide additional information such as right-of-way constraints and additional coordination needed with specific agencies. These notes serve as a reminder that for project implementation, additional design and engineering will be needed to fully assess feasibility.

The numbering used to identify projects in the following section does not necessarily imply which route should be built first. Route implementation has no specific time line, since the availability of funds for implementation is variable and tied to the priorities of the City’s capital projects. If there is desire, recommended projects can be implemented at whatever interval best fits funding cycles or to take into consideration the availability of new information, new funding sources, updated collision statistics, updated CIP lists, etc.

Project prioritization combined data-driven analysis with City input.

Some projects that initially scored low were moved up due to knowledge of deficiency and need based on community feedback. Route prioritization and implementation will need to be fine-tuned and adjusted based on future circumstances. The following list included the various inputs used for the prioritization process.
• Number of Attractors (Commercial centers, civic centers, other points of interest)
• Number of Schools (1/4 mile buffer)
• Number of Parks (1/4 mile buffer)
• Reported Collisions
• Public Transportation to Work (500’ buffer)
• Walk to Work (500’ buffer)
• Bike to Work (500’ buffer)
• Households Without Vehicles (500’ buffer)
• 2010 Population Density (Residents per acre, 500’ buffer) • 2010 Employment Density (Employed per 16+ Residents, 500’ buffer) Please see Appendices B and C for additional details for each project such as the feasibility analysis, project length, and cost estimates.

Bike Lanes
The proposed 7th Street bike lanes are located in central San Jacinto. The bike lanes would provide people the option to ride their bike to one of several schools, parks, and transit stops located along this corridor. 7th Street was also identified as a high-priority pedestrian corridor. Additional information regarding pedestrian improvements can be found later in this chapter.

It is recommended that the City install buffered bike lanes where there is excess right-of-way. This would also provide the opportunity to upgrade the bike lanes to separated bikeways (also known as cycle tracks) in the future when funding is available.

96 Project #2- Main Street
Neighborhood Greenway (Bike Boulevard)
The Main Street neighborhood greenway is located in central San Jacinto. This proposed project would provide important connections to Downtown, eastern San Jacinto, the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians, and several parks. The neighborhood greenway would include a combination of the following traffic calming treatments: pavement markings, wayfinding signage, traffic circles, chicanes, lighting, and/or reduced travel lane widths. The existing transit stops would be integrated with the proposed project, ensuring that everyone has safe and convenient access to all modes of transportation along this corridor.

This is one of several downtown segments that have been identified in the TMP. It is important to note that there are significant, practical challenges with implementing projects that may affect the already-constructed geometry of the street network in the Downtown area. Whereas other proposed projects will be resolved with full street acquisition and build out, Downtown’s street geometry is unlikely to change.

This project would also need to coordinate with future studies regarding the intersection of Main Street, CA-79/San Jacinto Avenue, and Ramona Boulevard.

Project #5- 1st Street Neighborhood
Greenway and Bike Lanes
Project #5 on 1st Street is a combination of a neighborhood greenway and bike lanes that will provide convenient access north of Downtown. The adjacent land use is primarily residential, but the project would also improve connections to several schools and religious institutions west of San Jacinto Ave. Traffic calming is an important goal of this project, so the neighborhood greenway would include a combination of the following treatments: pavement markings, wayfinding signage, traffic circles, chicanes, lighting, and/or reduced travel lane widths. It is also recommended that the City install buffered bike lanes where there is excess right-of-way.

Because this project creates connections to several schools, it is advised that the recommendations complement the City’s Safe Routes to School recommendations that are in progress as of the development of the TMP.

This is one of several downtown segments that have been identified in the TMP.

It is important to note that there are significant, practical challenges with implementing projects that may affect the already-constructed geometry of the street network in the Downtown area.

Project #7- Santa Fe Avenue Bike Lanes
and Neighborhood Greenway
Project #7 is a combination of a bike lanes and a neighborhood greenway located on Santa Fe Avenue. The diverse adjacent land uses include residential, industrial, commercial, undeveloped space, and agriculture. Santa Fe Avenue was selected as an alternative to traveling on San Jacinto Avenue because of the lower traffic volumes and speeds. It is the street immediately west of San Jacinto Avenue, so convenient access to all of the activity centers on both streets is fulfilled.

Santa Fe Avenue also ranks highly because it provides connections to Hemet. Through future joint efforts, Santa Fe Avenue can become a premier multi-modal corridor that residents can use to travel between both downtowns. Coordination would be especially important to allow multi-modal access between Date Street and Devonshire Ave, right in Hemet. The street is currently closed off to everyone except school buses.

Traffic calming is key for this project, so the corridor would include a combination of the following treatments: pavement markings, wayfinding signage, traffic circles, lighting, speed displays signs, and/or reduced travel lane widths. It is also recommended that the City install buffered bike lanes where there is excess right-of-way.

Project #10- Ramona Boulevard
Neighborhood Greenway (Bike Boulevard)
Project #10 is a neighborhood greenway located on Ramona Boulevard between Monte Vista Avenue/ 1st Street and San Jacinto Avenue. Similarly to 1st Street, this project would improve connections to Downtown, schools, and several other activity centers. Traffic calming is an important goal of this project, so the neighborhood greenway would include a combination of the following treatments: pavement markings, wayfinding signage, chicanes, lighting, and/or reduced travel lane widths.

The existing transit stops would also be improved, ensuring that everyone has safe and convenient access to all modes of transportation along this corridor.

It is advised that the recommendations complement the City’s Safe Routes to School recommendations that are in progress as of the development of the TMP.

This is one of several downtown segments that have been identified in the TMP.

It is important to note that there are significant, practical challenges with implementing projects that may affect the already-constructed geometry of the street network in the Downtown area.

Project #11- Flood Control Channel /
EMWD Multi-use Path
The Flood Control Channel multi-use path is an off-street, multi-modal facility that was selected as a priority project due to the connectivity it provides throughout the City. This project would be located on either the Riverside County Flood Control right-of-way or Eastern Municipal Water District right-of-way, and provide safe and convenient access between western and central San Jacinto. There is also a possibility to design this multi-use path with equestrian access, providing even greater opportunities for recreation and transportation uses.

This project would also provide direct access to the existing and proposed trails in western San Jacinto. More information regarding the trails can be found later in this chapter.

Detailed coordination would be needed with Riverside County Flood Control District and the Eastern Municipal Water District to implement this priority project and to determine if equestrian use is feasible.

TRAIL AND TRAILHEAD RECOMMENDATIONS
The TMP also includes recommendations for unpaved, natural-surface trails in the western region of the City. The hillsides that border the Lakeview and Nuevo communities, and which are managed by the Western Riverside County Conservation Authority (RCA), offer opportu 140
-
nities for recreational trail use.

Through coordination and approval from RCA and the Riverside County Parks and Open Space District, the City can establish an expanded trail network that offers recreational, educational, and conservation uses.

These agencies can work together to conduct additional environmental studies and community outreach to determine the most appropriate trail alignments that maximize sensitive habitat protection, while providing safe and enjoyable trails for all to enjoy and learn from.

Amenities such as trailhead kiosks, wayfinding and regulatory signage, fencing, vista points, and other site furnishings that are context-sensitive, can help the agencies maintain, police, and monitor trail use and access. Additionally, educational signage, programmed hikes with local environmental and school groups, and other programs, can help create responsible stewardship of the area’s trails.

The proposed bikeway and pedestrian corridors presented earlier in this chapter described how San Jacinto residents and visitors would be able to use the multi-modal network to safely and conveniently access the existing and proposed trails. Since the proposed trail network is in the western region of the City, and with agriculture land cutting off the densely-populated neighborhoods of the City, implementing the proposed multi-use path along the flood control right-of-way, and the multi-use path on Cottonwood Avenue would provide the most beneficial and direct access to the existing and proposed trail network.

The residential neighborhood, The Cove, is located in these scenic foothills. Its location serves as an accessible location for several of the proposed trails and trailheads. Residents currently hike in the hills to the west and northwest of this area, but trail amenities and other site furnishings do not exist. The TMP recommends developing trailheads with educational, regulatory, and directional signage so that trail users can be better informed about the context, rules, and direction of the area they are hiking in. Additional site furnishings such as trash and recycling receptacles can help everyone maintain the trails efficiently.

FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS, PHASING, AND

IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY
For a city like San Jacinto that is experiencing significant growth into a more suburban and urban context, it is critical to have a master plan like this TMP to guide the successful implementation of trail and multi-modal facilities. San Jacinto is similar to other cities with strong agricultural and low-density backgrounds in the sense that the physical development of neighborhoods and activity centers occurs in phases.

This type of growth often leads to areas within the City that are discon 146
-
nected, especially in their road and trails network.

FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
The built environment and the perceived Right of Way (ROW) can vary significantly from one street to another. These stark changes in the visible ROW may lead misunderstandings to what can actually “fit” along that street segment. By completing a feasibility analysis for each of the proposed projects, the TMP can determine what kind of facilities can ultimately fit along a street. The feasibility analysis used both the existing curb-to-curb widths, as well as the future built out ROW to determine those facilities.

Generally speaking, there are a limited number of trail and bike facilities that can fit only within the curb-to-curb widths. Alternatively, a large number of multi-use paths, and enhanced bicycle facilities can be implemented if the City used the built out ROW. This is generally good news for the ultimate vision of the TMP, but using the complete ROW does pose other potential challenges. Because the ROW may not be currently visible, and because certain properties may have encroached into the ROW, the City would need to take additional steps to communicate to the residents and property owners about implementing the proposed projects that rely on the ROW.

The feasibility analysis table can be found in Appendix B of the final report. This table will contain detailed information amount ROW widths on the streets that recommendations are being proposed on.

PHASING AND IMPLEMENTATION
The City may need to employ phasing strategies to successfully implement proposed projects. Phasing and implementation will rely on available City funding, grants awarded, projects identified in the City’s CIP list, and public-private partnerships such as new developments.

Available Funding
The City may use the prioritized project list from the TMP to identify the projects that can be incorporated into a CIP list. The adoption of the TMP and the CIP list will allow the City to competitively pursue available federal, state, or regional grants. Available funding sources can be found in Chapter 5.

Public-Private Partnerships
The City’s rapid growth provides many opportunities for the implementation of the proposed projects. Based on current City policies and strategies, the City can coordinate with new developments to construct projects such as sidewalks, multi-use paths, bike lanes, and other multi-modal projects identified in the TMP.

Scheduled Street Resurfacing or Widening Projects
Another effective method of implementing proposed projects is to coordinate with scheduled street resurfacing or widening projects.

Many cities have found success with improving the safety of comfort of streets by installing multi-modal facilities such as bicycle lanes and reducing the width of travel lanes. Coordinating these improvements also saves the City mobilization and installation costs.

Future Corridor Studies and Preliminary Engineering
The TMP serves as a guiding document for the City to make informed decisions for future projects. Its purposeful flexibility allows the City to use the list of prioritized projects and the cut sheets to identify capital improvement projects internally, or engage with future developers to progress the design and engineering of projects that are within their purview.

4.1.g
Packet Pg. 1395
Attachment: Resolution No. 3950 - Exhibit "B" - Envision San Jacinto - General Plan 2040 Appendices (Envision San Jacinto - General Plan CHAPTER 4 | RECOMMENDATIONS
147
Once those conversations take place and projects are selected to move forward, the responsible party may use the TMP and the information provided for each top trail, pedestrian, and bikeway project to complete a more comprehensive corridor study. These subsequent studies will include detailed design and preliminary engineering including but not limited to traffic engineering studies, right-of-way confirmation, additional community engagement, facility design, detailed cost estimates, and specific implementation strategies.

Project Amenities and Features Phasing
Future corridor studies and preliminary engineering can also provide the City a list of strategies on how to phase a project that is composed of several amenities and features. Detailed information, such as updated costs, can help the City determine how best to phase and construct a project that may require complex coordination like right-of-way/ road re-allocation, or a project that spans long distances.

For example, many of the proposed multi-use paths with equestrian trails can be phased to facilitate implementation. The paved portion of the multi-use path, its buffers, fencing, and any required lighting and signage can be constructed first. This can be followed by the equestrian natural-surface trail, enhanced planting, wayfinding signage, trail head kiosk, and other amenities.

Another example regards the proposed neighborhood greenways (bike boulevards). Future corridor studies can guide the City with installing the minimum required features such as road pavement bike boulevard stencils, wayfinding signage, and other stop-controlled features such as stop sign installation. Additional features that can be phased in the future once funding is secured may include speed tables, traffic circles, chicanes, street trees, etc.

Maintenance Costs
Trail, pedestrian, and bikeway maintenance costs are critical to ensuring safety, comfort, and on-going enthusiasm for multi-modal transportation. Maintenance costs vary widely and may be based on a number of factors such as:
• Maintaining pavement quality through spot repairs, regular overlays and longer-term repaving • Maintaining trails and sidewalks to ADA standards
• Sweeping and removal of litter on a regular basis
• Vegetation trimming and landscaping maintenance
• Re-striping paths as needed
• Lighting feature maintenance, including electricity costs • Repair of damage due to storms, floods, collisions and other unforeseen events • Repair and replacement of wayfinding or other signage Specific maintenance costs can be determined on a case-by-case and may include public-private partnerships, HOA’s/developer agreements, establishment of improvement districts, or future bond measures.

PROGRAMS OVERVIEW
This section includes a diverse list of programs intended to support the bicycle and pedestrian projects recommended in this plan.

EVOLVING STATE OF PRACTICE IN BICYCLE PROGRAMS
There has been a shift away from the traditionally compartmentalized “Five Es” approach developed by the League of American Bicyclists (En 148
-
gineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement and Evaluation and Planning), and instead toward a fully integrated and complementary menu of initiatives. By offering such a menu, rather than a prescriptive list, active transportation programming can more accurately address the existing conditions and desired outcomes of a given context.

In addition to changes in the content and organization of active transportation programs, there has also been a shift in implementation strategies. Programs are increasingly targeted at specific project areas, in conjunction with the construction of bicycle and pedestrian projects.

The implementation of a capital project represents a unique opportunity to promote a city’s active transportation system, bicycling, and walking as attractive transportation options. Projects or “Engineering” represent the most visible and perhaps most tangible evidence of a great place for bicycling. The same can be said for walking. A new bicycle route attracts the attention of bicyclists and non-bicyclists alike. As such, it represents a great opportunity to reach out to the “interested, but concerned” within the neighborhood. Impact to this target group will be strongest by directly linking route improvements and supportive programs. In this way, bundling bicycle programs with projects represents a much higher return on investment for both.

The programs recommended for the San Jacinto are organized as a menu of potential initiatives. These categories are not definitive. They are merely intended to offer some level of organization to the program initiatives, most which fall into at least one category.

EXISTING PROGRAMS
San Jacinto has not yet developed a robust set of programs designed to encourage, educate, and enforce active transportation. The TMP encourages the City to establish partnerships, seek funds, and create programs that will motivate their residents to use multi-modal means of getting to and from their destinations.

The following section highlights programs that have been successful in other Southern California towns and cities that can be implemented in San Jacinto.

Education/Encouragement/Marketing
Community Bicycle Programs - Bike Kitchens
Community bicycle programs, also known as Bike Kitchens, are commonly formed as grass roots initiatives by community members to provide bicycles, helmets, maintenance, and safety instruction to people as a means of expanding their transportation options and providing people better access to work and services.

San Jacinto could support the creation of a Bike Kitchen within its city boundaries and leverage its resources in coordination with the bicycle route types prioritized in this plan. This combination will help encourage an increase in bicycling mode share, serve as a missing link in the public transit system, reduce GHG emissions and provide additional “green” jobs related to system management and maintenance.

Street Smarts Classes & Bicycle Ambassadors
This initiative promotes safe bicycling through community-based outreach, which helps bridge the gap between people who want to start riding and the availability of opportunities to help people learn to bicycle safely. These classes would be taught by LCI certified residents or City personnel.

San Jacinto can participate in National Bike Month and maintain it as a tradition to motivate its community members to bicycle to their destinations.

Host a Ciclovia, Open Streets, and Other Signature Events A Ciclovía (also ciclovia or cyclovia in English) is Spanish for “bicycle path” and is used to describe a temporary event where a street(s) is closed to vehicles for use by people and non-motorized transportation. Ciclovias and open streets events are celebrations of livable streets and communities, encouraging citizens and businesses to get out in the street and enjoy their city through active participation. Ciclovias have gained considerable popularity in the United States in the past five years.

While all open streets events are alike in their creation of a people-oriented, car-free space, they are otherwise unique. In some cities, the event occurs once or twice a year, while in others it occurs every Saturday or Sunday throughout the entire summer. Some cities reuse routes, while others, like San Diego, host the events in different locations around the city. Some routes form a circuitous route, while others are linear. Most include parks or other open public spaces, music, performances, games, and other family-friendly activities. Open streets events often have a theme of health, exercise, and active transportation, and include groups promoting free, healthy activities stationed along the route. The routes can incorporate and highlight new bikeways and preferred routes, encouraging their use and maximizing investment.

Education/Enforcement
Educate Police Department Staff Regarding Bicycle and
Pedestrian Issues and Concerns
If the aim is to promote bicycling as a legitimate form of transportation, all officers should receive some form of bicycle training and should be offered LCI training, if possible. Appropriate training regarding pedestrian issues and solutions should be provided as well.

Participate in National Bike Month
Since 1956, communities from all over the country have celebrated NaPolice Bicycle Patrol, Torrence, CA tional Bike Month to showcase the many benefits of bicycling, as well as to encourage people of all ages and backgrounds to bicycle more often. The biggest event during National Bike Month is Bike to Work day. Local business, nonprofits, and entire city agencies participate by either hosting pit stops where bicyclists can stop to gather healthy

Allocate funding for the training and support of this duty, as well as for necessary bicycle equipment.

Targeted Enforcement
Many law enforcement departments employ targeted enforcement to educate drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians about applicable traffic laws and the need to share the road. These efforts are an effective way to expand mobility education. Targeted enforcement should warn and educate drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians about laws, rules of the road and safe procedures. This could be in the form of a brochure or tip card explaining each user’s rights and responsibilities. Targeted enforcement may help mitigate the following traffic safety problems:
• Speeding in school zones
• Illegal passing of school buses
• Parking violations – bus zone, crosswalks, residential driveways, time zones
• Risks to bicyclists during drop-off and pick-up times • Lack of safety patrol/crossing guard operations
• Unsafe bicycling and pedestrian practices
• Other school zone traffic law violations
This approach has been successful in Los Angeles where four officers, one for each Police Department Traffic Division, have been dedicated solely to bicycle safety and outreach.

Implement a Bicycle Diversion Program
A Bicycle Diversion Program permits adult bicyclists who commit traffic violations to receive reduced fines in exchange for taking a bicycle education class. Assembly Bill 902 allows the creation of such a program. This legislation has been touted as a boost for both equity and encouragement in bicycling. It is expected to promote equity because, in reducing fines, it effectively makes bicycling more affordable. It is expected to encourage bicycling by treating violations as opportunities to educate people and impart confidence and skills. AB 902 went into effect January 1, 2016, but it will be up to each city and its law enforcement department to adopt diversion programs.

Distribute Bicycle Helmets and Lights
If law enforcement officers observe a bicyclist riding at night without the proper reflectors or lights, they may give the bicyclist a light along with a note or friendly reminder about the light requirement and its importance. This provides a positive and educational interaction rather than a punitive one. This program could be funded through a safeBike Helmet Giveaway, KTUA ty-oriented grant. Many cities have targeted the end of daylight savings as an ideal time to perform this function.

cation and interaction. Law enforcement departments have conducted public events to hand out helmets, as well as distributing them in the community during patrol when an officer sees a child riding helmetless.

Law Enforcement Referral Process
Design a communication process that encourages students and parents to notify the school and police of the occurrence of a crash or near-miss during school commute trips involving auto, bus, pedestrian or bicycle transportation. Include not only the Police Department, but also the Planning Department and SRTS stakeholders in this reporting system to help better use data generated. Enlist the help of law enforcement with many traffic safety duties.

Los Angeles has a successful program called the LA Bike Map that allows bicyclists to submit incidents, see them displayed instantly, and study the overall pattern, dynamically, in one place.

Enforcement of Traffic and Parking Laws Through Citations and Warnings
Coordinate targeted enforcement of problem areas should be an intensive, focused effort during the first two weeks of school, as well as a strategy for the rest of the year.

Participation in Traffic Safety Programs: Traffic Garden, SRTS Task Force, etc.

The City could support the creation of a traffic garden, also referred to as a traffic park or safety village. A traffic garden is a specially designed park or schoolyard where children can learn traffic laws and how to safely navigate streets as either pedestrians, bicyclists, or drivers. Children that participate in traffic gardens can use bicycles or pedal-powered cars to navigate the mock streets. Teachers, parents, and instructors alike provide guidance on how to safely cross the street, how to interact with bicyclists and pedestrians, and how to navigate a traffic circle. San Jacinto could partner with a school district to create a traffic garden at a park or in an elementary and middle schoolyard.

Creating a Safe Routes to School (SRTS) task force would aid in developing programs and projects that foster the want and need for safely and comfortably bicycling and walking to and from school. The task force can be comprised of parent champions, school members, City staff, or local advocates. Their primary mission would be to work alongside the community, appropriate city officials, and school districts to implement SRTS programs and projects.

Tracking and Monitoring Pedestrian and Bicycle Travel
Bicycle Friendly Application Update
Bicycle Friendly Community/Neighborhood Designation is part of an official program offered by the League of American Bicyclists intended to provide communities with guidance on becoming more bicycle friendly and to offer recognition for their achievements. Like the report card described in the last section of this chapter, applying for Bicycle Friendly Community designation provides a standard by which San Jacinto can measure its progress. From the LAB’s own website:

“The Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) program provides a roadmap to improve conditions for bicycling and the guidance to make your distinct vision for a better, bikeable community a reality. A community recognized by the League as Bicycle Friendly welcomes bicyclists by providing safe accommodation for bicycling and encouraging people to bicycle for transportation and recreation.”
Create City Staff Active Transportation Coordinator Position The creation of an Active Transportation Coordinator position would demonstrate the City’s commitment to bicycling, walking and creating “complete streets.” An active transportation coordinator can help coordinate between City departments to ensure projects planning consistency and cooperation. A coordinator would manage programs and implement projects listed in the TMP, and would be responsible for updating the plan in a timely manner. This includes maintaining a prioritized list of improvements, updating cost estimates and identifying appropriate funding sources. This investment in staff is often returned since this position usually is responsible for securing State and federal funding for bicycle projects.

Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Committee
An Active Transportation Advisory Committee (ATAC) assists the City with implementation of plan projects, policies and programs. The ATAC allows City staff, volunteers, and advocates to continue efforts to improve bicycling throughout the City. This group acts as a community liaison and addresses issues concerning local bicycling and walking.

The ATAC can review the implementation and regularly evaluate the progress of improvements in the Active Transportation Master Plan.

City support is imperative for creating the committee, budgeting time and resources for City staff and elected officials to attend and to support these meetings.

Conduct Bicycle and Pedestrian Counts and Review Collision Data Conduct regular bicyclist and pedestrian counts throughout the City to determine baseline mode share and subsequent changes. Conducting counts allows the City to collect information on where the most bicycling and walking occurs. This assists in prioritizing and justifying projects when funding is solicited and received. Counts can also be used to study bicycling and walking trends throughout the City. Analysis that could be conducted includes:
• Changes in volumes before and after projects have been implemented • Prioritization of local and regional projects
• Research on air quality with increased bicycling and walking Counts should be conducted at the same locations and at the same times every year. Conducting counts during different seasons within the year may be beneficial to understanding the differences in bicycle and pedestrian traffic volumes based on weather. In addition, bicycle and pedestrian counts should be collected as part of any existing traffic counts. Results should be regularly recorded for inclusion in the bicycle and pedestrian report card described in the next section.

The San Jacinto Police Department should collect and track collision data. Regular reports of traffic collisions should be presented at the Active Transportation Advisory Committee. Traffic collisions involving bicyclists and pedestrians should be reviewed and analyzed regular 154
-
ly to develop plans to reduce their frequency and severity. Any such plans should include Police Department involvement and should be monitored to determine their effectiveness. Results of the number of collisions should be recorded in the bicycle and pedestrian report card.

Develop a Bicycle Report Card
The City could develop a bicycle and pedestrian report card, a checklist used to measure the success of plan implementation, as well as effort made, within the City. The report card could be used to identify the magnitude of accomplishments in the previous year and general trends. The report card could include, but not be limited to, keeping track of system completion, travel by bicycle or on foot (counts) and safety.

The City can use the report card to track trends, placing more value on relative than absolute gains (in system completion, mode share and safety). For example, an upward trend in travel by bicycle or on foot would be viewed as a success, regardless of the specific increase in the number of bicyclists or walkers.

A major portion of the report card would be an evaluation of system completion. An upward trend would indicate that the City is progressing in its efforts to complete the bicycle and pedestrian network identified in this document. The report card could be developed to utilize information collected as part of annual and ongoing evaluations, as discussed in the previous sections. The report card is not intended to be an additional task for City staff, but rather a means of documenting and publicizing the City’s efforts related to bicycle and pedestrian planning. If a Active Transportation Advisory Committee is appointed, it can be a task of the committee to review the report cards and adjust future plans and goals accordingly.

In addition to quantifying accomplishments related to the bicycle plan, the City should strive to quantify its efforts. These may be quantified as money spent, staff hours devoted or other in-kind contributions. The quantified effort should be submitted as a component of the bicycle and pedestrian report card. Some cities publish their report cards online.

EVOLVING STATE OF MOBILITY
During the development of this TMP, many cities throughout the country, especially in Southern California, were experiencing a new way of transportation: bike-share and scooter-share. Even though bike-share had already been established in other major cities such as New York and Washington D.C., these mobility options were relatively new in the region. Even more remarkable was the rise of dockless bike-share and scooter-share. Companies such as Lime and Bird have created a diverse fleet of mobility options that rely on today’s technology.

Transportation throughout towns and larger cities is always in an evolving state. Thankfully, there are several resources available by notable groups that help breakdown the complexity of embracing these mobility options.

Bird Dockless Electric Scooter Lime Dockless Electric-Assist Bicycle The National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO), PeopleForBikes, and the Better Bike Share Partnership are just a few examples of resources that San Jacinto can refer to if they wish to explore these mobility options for their community. These resources provide valuable information on the successes and failures of mobility endeavors, and how it’s affected those communities.

Understanding the overall balance of a city’s infrastructure, mobility devices, and the programs available to their community, will be key to establishing a successful environment where people have the option to walk, hike, or ride to their destinations.

POTENTIAL INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDING SOURCES
Federal, state, and local government agencies invest billions of dollars every year in the nation’s transportation system. Only a fraction of that funding is used to develop policies, plans, and projects to improve con 158
-
ditions directly for bicyclists and pedestrians. Even though appropriate funds are available, they are limited and often hard to find. Desirable projects sometimes go unfunded because communities may be unaware of a fund’s existence or may apply for the wrong type of grant.

In addition, there is competition between cities and municipalities for the limited available funds.

Whenever federal funds are used for bicycle and pedestrian projects, a certain level of state and/or local matching funding is generally required. State funds are often available to local governments on similar terms. Almost every implemented active transportation or complete street program and facility in the United States has had more than one funding source and it often takes a good deal of coordination to pull the various sources together.

According to the publication by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), An Analysis of Current Funding Mechanisms for Bicycle and Pedestrian Programs at the Federal, State and Local Levels, where successful local bicycle facility programs exist, there is usually an active transportation coordinator with extensive understanding of funding sources. Cities such as Seattle, Portland, and Tucson are prime examples. City staff are often in a position to develop a competitive project and detailed proposal that can be used to improve conditions for bicyclists and walkers within their jurisdictions. Some of the following information on federal and state funding sources was derived from the previously mentioned FHWA publication.

Funding sources for trail projects have historically not matched those available for bicycle and pedestrian projects. Oftentimes, cities and municipalities have to get “creative” when applying to federal, state, and local grants, partnerships, and other related funding sources. To improve the chances of successfully securing funding for trail projects, the City can define that trails are an integral part of the multi-modal transportation network. Fortunately in San Jacinto, there is a direct connection between the proposed multi-use paths and the transportation network. Most of the proposed multi-use paths will provide safe and convenient access to the City’s parks, schools, retail, and other community destinations. They will serve both the recreational and utilitarian uses of multi-modal transportation.

Private funding sources are also commonly used to fund trail projects, such as foundation grants, campaign donations, trust funds, and endowments. The key is to get “creative” and generate the public support needed to move the proposed projects forward.

The Rails to Trails Conservancy is an excellent funding and program resource. Many of the funding sources cited in the following table are derived from the Rails to Trails Conservancy.

Table 5-1 identifies potential funding sources that may be used for design or maintenance phases of projects. Due to trends in Low Impact Development (LID) and stormwater retention street designs, funding sources for these improvements not only increase the chances for first and last mile improvements, but can also be incorporated into streetscape and development projects. The sources are arranged by federal, state, local, and private, and the uses that the funds may address.

17 All of the trails are good, but they lock, the interconnection with each other... could you imagine to go around and pretty much go around the town in your bicycle, or on a marathon... the possibilities are endless... look Poway, where even horses are allowed to use the trails, as longest somebody is in the hose of course... or San Jose Ca where pretty much you can go from the North end in Santa Teresa, through Downtown and all the way to the international Airport... can we do better? Of course we can have Better infrastructure than the aforementioned ones. All what it takes is a vision, & been persistent.

13 Except for the speed limit, Ramona Expressway would be a nice place to bike too. 11/10/2017 10:52 AM 14 Most Bicyclists do not obey rules of the road, making the roads very dangerous. Enforcing and educating on the bike laws is needed. None of the above matters if this doesn’t happen. 11/9/2017 9:11 AM

1 Horse trails! 8/13/2018 11:00 PM
2 Where there are already wide enough streets, bike lanes should be added. Our flood control channels, reservoirs, or the riverbed (banks) can be utilized for walking/biking right now- just need some refurbishment or decomposed granite placed down for pathways. 8/4/2018 7:40 PM
3 I moved to this area because of the walking trails and parks, we’ve watched it go downhill in recent years while seeing other parks still get love. What’s left of the parks in the Rancho San Jac Community are practically dirt fields, full of dead grass and gopher holes.. not to mention a park across the street from my house that is falling apart.
8/1/2018 11:21 PM
4 the plan should set goals for providing a usable network of low-stress bikeways to city residents and require that all new developments include their own internal network AND provide usable connections between it and the broader city-wide network 8/1/2018 8:56 PM
5 The sidewalks and bike paths need more frequent maintenance. Tree limbs, tumbleweeds, goathead vines are blocking the sidewalks on country village drive. Glass and sand are problems on the Ramona expressway bike path.
7/30/2018 11:32 AM
6 None 7/19/2018 12:20 PM
7 More trees and street paving. Sad to see my city I love...falling apart and behind the times. Make San Jacinto the "crown jewel" of this great state!
7/16/2018 9:21 AM
8 Clean the parks up around Villines and Esplanade. Grass is dead, bike trails have still water. horrible!
7/16/2018 8:07 AM
9 Moved here Oct. 2017 and love this city. Dennis Fletcher 7/11/2018 3:57 AM 10 Please put a sidewalk on Ramona Blvd between savory and Lyon on the south side. We live near here and like to bike to the park close to Sanderson and Ramona Blvd but there is no sidewalk or room to bike so it is very dangerous. The cars go very fast on Ramona Blvd. 7/7/2018 9:03 PM
11 Please add safe bicycle and walking trails! 6/29/2018 10:27 PM 12 Fix the bike path (maintain trees, shrub, bushes, sewer, etc) along Esplanade. San Jacinto has so much potential ...
6/10/2018 12:01 AM
13 This is a great city for growth! Good law enforcement is a must! City council are doing a good job! 6/9/2018 12:37 AM 14 Add more street lights, get rid of creepy homeless people 6/5/2018 2:50 AM 15 I think we need more connecting sidewalk esspecially at 7 th and Palm. We also need lights at 7th and palm and at palm and cottonwood.
5/30/2018 2:58 PM
16 This will be a beautiful city to walk within once the master plan is in place. 5/20/2018 10:51 PM 17 Not at this time 5/9/2018 11:19 PM
18 No 5/9/2018 12:11 PM
19 So much needs to be done in this city!! 5/9/2018 12:05 PM 20 Improving sidewalk and tree lighting will increase the amount of people walking as consecue we may have healthy people
5/9/2018 11:55 AM
21 This plan would be a major improvement to San Jacinto- community based activity with the walking and biking trails- getting outside and enjoying our city/are 5/5/2018 1:36 PM
22 Get rid of the dirty druggies from the streets then we can all feel safe walking around town. 5/5/2018 11:25 AM 21 / 29

22 23 Aggressive loose animals, people parking over the sidewalks, vegetation blocking sidewalk access and broken glass on sidewalks make it difficult and unsafe to get out and enjoy the community. 5/5/2018 8:14 AM
24 Should have one on top of Levy 5/5/2018 7:13 AM
25 Fix the existing lighting along bike and walking paths in Rancho San Jacinto. It’s been years since there have been working lights on the paths. Extend bike lanes to local shopping centers. 5/4/2018 8:55 PM
26 San Jacinto is doing a fantastic job of cleaning up the town and moving forward ! 5/4/2018 8:34 PM 27 use the easements and earthquake zones that are unbuildable and linear to create a comprehensive, street free trail system for transportation and recreation 4/6/2018 11:11 AM
28 Street lighting is very important some streets have lighting and others are completely dark 4/2/2018 2:25 PM 29 Please create more trails and bike paths. San Jacinto could be such a charming town. 3/28/2018 9:23 AM 30 It would be amazing to see a lake with a walking trail surrounding it. Thank you! 3/27/2018 1:32 PM 31 getting ready to move out of SJ 3/13/2018 11:01 AM

35 We need to get rid of the homeless and walking/biking will be better for everyone. Plus we need to control the disgusting and unbearable cow manure smell
2/6/2018 9:32 AM
36 Yes. On San Jacinto and Main Street sets the old hotel unfinished. When are the owner going to finish the construction? It is an eyesore to see that blue building not being in use. Nit only that you cannot walk around it without walking in the street. It is very dangerous for walkers and bikers. 2/6/2018 4:33 AM
37 no 2/2/2018 3:26 PM
38 Reopen San Jacinto River Park. Plant more trees, other than Magnolias which don’t grow. Make homes with walls facing the streets keep them landscaped. 1/27/2018 10:21 PM

40 This plan seems much more reasonable than some of the 'road diets' I'm seeing elsewhere in LA and California. Trails seem a better option to ensure San Jacinto remains a healthy and active community as it grows, and provides additional mobility choices for shorter trips. Trails would also meet 'Active Transport' mandates, which would allow for the continued development of a great 'motorized' network of wide, multi-lane roads, which reduces congestion and accommodates for future development. By developing trails for pedestrians and cyclists (safe, wide, tree-lined, away from road), and efficient multi-lane roadways for motorists, San Jacinto can develop a true 'multimodal' network that ensures no mode of transport is sacrificed for the other (in the past, Active Transport, now unfortunately motorists elsewhere with ill-founded lane reductions etc...). I look forward to a more pragmatic approach to meeting the needs of all transport modes, and wish the City of San Jacinto well in pursuing this vision.

I look forward to a more pragmatic approach to meeting the needs of all transport modes, without any inconvenience to motorists (the majority of residents) with 'road diets' on major highways, (Venice Blvd etc..). On a side note, whilst a small minority may be happy with on-road 'buffered' cycle lanes, trails would encourage many more to cycle ( e.g. students), without causing unnecessary congestion to road users.

42 English only please for city site 12/16/2017 1:45 PM 43 I realize it is easier said than done to ask of these things. Mistletoe Park needs to be closed down again due to the drugs, fighting, homeless the list goes on 12/12/2017 8:43 AM

23 44 We need more lighting on streets. I would walk more and bike everywhere if there weren’t so many homeless and drug addicts on the streets
12/7/2017 12:55 AM
45 I absolutely love walking! We moved here from orange county and I would lock my children to school the park and the grocery store. Here it’s horrible to walk because so often I won’t have any sidewalk to walk on, and then all the tires on my stroller get popped. And then we’re walking in the street which is unsafe for my children. More trees and shade would really make walking all year long possible and more beautiful. There is also an issue of Homeless at the parks, I do not want to walk my children to a park where I feel unsafe with adult homeless men near myself and children. 12/4/2017 12:25 PM
46 City should be focusing on street cleanup rather than bicycle/pedestrian walkways. 12/3/2017 11:32 PM 47 no 12/3/2017 2:38 PM
48 Let's clean up the city or all this will be a waste of time and money 12/2/2017 5:15 PM 49 Safer streets for kids to ride bikes to/from schools 12/2/2017 9:26 AM 50 Lighting around the city needs to improve, especially in new homes. Not enough street lights. 12/1/2017 4:50 PM 51 I believe the bigger issue is trying to keep them clean from drugs and transients. I visit parks with my family every weekend and gave always found drug paraphernalia, condoms and glass everywhere. So additional trails would be awesome but will they be safe? I would rather commute to idelwild to have a better hiking experience.
12/1/2017 3:37 PM
52 This city has great potential, but really needs to be cleaned up. Code enforcement really needs to start writing citations to businesses and residents.
11/30/2017 7:00 PM
53 More sidewalks, crosswalks, speed bumps, and stop signs 11/30/2017 3:21 PM 54 the city is not safe at all. lots of bums, drug addicts, mentally ill roam the streets. the city layout is beautifully designed and would be lovely for walking and biking if it was safer 11/27/2017 4:21 PM
55 Connecting pathways to parks in San Jacinto and local and outlying areas 11/18/2017 9:57 AM 56 San Jacinto Ave between Main and Ramona Expressway needs a serious facelift it looks ugly and dangerous to walk around. We need family friendlier atmosphere more appealing to families and the community. It is embarrassing that we cannot spend time outdoors because of lack of sidewalks, safety, paths for walking. Look at Temecula, Murrieta and the neighboring cities they are beautiful and it is appealing for families to be outdoors. 11/18/2017 7:30 AM

61 We need light on park grounds and walking trails, it's completely dark now around 6pm 11/11/2017 4:44 PM 62 Regular citizens like to bike and walk around and see their taxes at work, not just homeless folks.

Please take this comment positively.
11/10/2017 10:54 AM
63 Sounds great but is a moot point if laws continue to be disobeyed. 11/9/2017 9:14 AM 64 Lets develop for the future for a more beautiful and prosperous city of San Jacinto, while holding on to the small town feel
11/7/2017 7:01 PM
65 The streets and walking paths have homeless men and women doing drugs and sleeping there.

Something needs to be done to make it safe to walk again 11/6/2017 7:10 PM
66 I would like a bridge or cross over to Valley Wide Park from 7th street. Right now Palm St. doesn't go through.

24 72 I use and like the bike path along the Ramona Expy however, it is often covered by debris and thorns--resulting in numerous flat tires on my road bike. 11/4/2017 8:08 AM
73 We moved to this area (Rancho San Jacinto Tract) because of the green parks and well maintained parks, in recent years the parks and trails have gone to crap. I’m afraid to take my children to the park in fear of them getting injured, we no longer use the walking paths because they have no lighting and are poorly maintained.
11/4/2017 3:12 AM
74 When I am walking my dogs,bicyclers need to yell out or say something before they are on top of you and almost run you over. It's a matter of manners. Some people have none! 11/3/2017 9:04 PM
75 Code enforcement needs to be more vigilant. Homes, yards, our streets and parks would look a lot better if code enforcement, among others, would simply do the job they are being paid to do 11/3/2017 7:19 PM
76 Bike trail on los rosas is dark had a rape years past 11/3/2017 6:57 PM 77 Would like to see smaller parks fixed 11/3/2017 6:20 PM 78 We need more Dog Parks for the general public and Dog Friendly Trails. 11/3/2017 4:51 PM 79 many streets do not have sidewalks at all, even main streets like san jacinto, 11/3/2017 4:22 PM 80 I believe it’s a wonderful plan to create a better walking and biking environment that leads to improvement in health and well-being of residents. I would like to emphasize that the existing walkways and bike paths should be tied into future plans to connect on a broad basis throughout San Jacinto. There’s an excellent start with the existing pathways in Rancho San Jacinto and it would be beneficial for all that these become an integral part of the Trails plan. 11/3/2017 3:52 PM
81 “Police” dog walkers. They are not picking up after their dogs!!! Esplanade 11/3/2017 8:42 AM 82 no 11/2/2017 3:07 PM
83 Formalize an off -street bike route along flood control channel. Easier access to trail. Near Lake park bridge. Consider reaching out to Golden Era Productions to extend the same recreational bike route along Gilman Springs. This could be a destination for bicyclists to come to San Jacinto. 10/27/2017 2:37 PM
