Shea Homes Residential Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings Environmental Impact Report The proposed project includes a mix of two car and four car garages. Each residential dwelling unit would be provided with four parking spaces. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in an adverse parking impact. The proposed project would not be in conflict with any adopted policies regarding alternative modes of transportation. Implementation of the proposed project would not displace any existing modes of public transportation provided within the project area. 4.3.16 Utilities According the Santa Ana Water Department there is adequate water supplies to meet the water demands of the proposed project. The Water Department has indicated that water demands of the proposed project could be provided through connections to the existing 8" water main along Farmers Drive. According the Santa Ana Water Department there is adequate capacity to meet the wastewater demands of the proposed project. The Water Department has indicated that wastewater demands of the proposed project could be provided through the construction of new connections to the existing 8" sewer main along Farmers Drive. The proposed project would not require an expansion of the treatment capacity at Reclamation Plant 1. Nor would the wastewater flows from the project exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the State Regional Water Quality Control Board. Implementation of the proposed project would increase the amount of surface water runoff generated from the project site. The project would require the construction of new onsite drainage facilities. However, the construction of these facilities would not cause significant impacts to the environment. The proposed project would have a solid waste disposal demand of345 pounds per day which would have less than significant impact on solid waste disposal service. 5.0 MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM When making findings, CEQA requires that a lead agency must adopt a reporting or monitoring program for the changes to the project that it has adopted or made a condition of project approval in order to ensure compliance during project implementation. The Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) for the Shea Homes Residential Project, accompanying the Final ErR, is designed to serve this purpose for the mitigation measures identified in the Final ElR. The MMP requires the City to monitor mitigation measures designed to reduce or eliminate significant adverse project impacts, as well as those mitigation measures designed to reduce environmental impacts that are less than significant. The MMP includes all mitigation measures identified in the final ElR and has been designed to ensure compliance during implementation of the project. Resolutioli'm.~05-1 07 Page 31 of 38
