~fA Responses to Environmental Checklist For CEQA Compliance A fire station is located at the corner of Fifth and Newhope Streets and IS approximately 1.3 mile from the project site. According to the Santa Ana Fire Department, implementation of the proposed project would not increase the demand for fire protection services over current levels of demand within the project area and that under existing levels of manpower and equipment the Fire Department would be able to provide an adequate level of service. Pursuant to the California Fire Code, the installation of an automatic fire sprinklers system and fire alarm system are required. Compliance with the California Fire Code would reduce any potential impacts to a level considered less than significant. Police Protection: Less than Significant The Santa Ana Police Department would provide police protection services for the proposed project. According to the Santa Ana Police Department, the church operation will not increase the demand for police protection services over current levels of manpower and equipment. The Police Department would be able to provide an adequate level of service. Schools, Parks, Other Facilities: No Impact Implementation of the proposed project would not generate demand for additional school services above the current conditions, nor would it generate demand for additional park services. No adverse impacts to schools, parks or other public services would occur. XIV. Recreation A. Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? B. Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment. No Impact Implementation of the proposed project would not generate additional demands on existing recreation facilities or require the construction of new recreation facilities. No adverse impacts to recreation services and facilities would occur. XV. Transportation/Traffic A. Cause an increase in traffic, which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system? Less than Significant Impact The implementation of the proposed project would increase vehicle trips in the project area in that the project increases the seating capacity of the church sanctuary. According to projected trip generation prepared by the City of Santa Ana Traffic Division, an additional 396 trips may be anticipated from the new sanctuary. As the church operates primarily on Sundays, no impacts are expected to the street system. Therefore, no mitigation measures are required. 75C-104 11
