City of Redwood City Land Use and Planning The EIR will address the project's compatibility with the City's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and any other planning or policy documents that relate to development of the subject property. The EIR will also address the project's compatibility with the surrounding single-family residential development. Noise MHA I RMT will be assisted by Illingworth & Rodkin in assessing the potential noise impacts of the project. The analysis in the EIR will quantify existing noise levels, calculate future noise levels (particularly construction noise and additional traffic noise generated by the new residences), assess project noise impacts, and address any mitigation measures that could reduce the noise impacts of the project. Public Services The EIR will include an analysis of whether local police, fire, and other emergency services have the capacity to serve the 18 proposed residences at the project site, and whether the proposed roadway will provide adequate access for these services. MHA I RMT will also analyze the capacity of the local school system to absorb the demand likely to be created by the addition of 18 new residences on this site. Traffic and Transportation The proposed residential development would add additional traffic trips to the existing cul-de-sac, and could result in adverse traffic impacts in the area. MHA I RMT will be assisted by OmniMeans, a transportation consulting firm, in determining the amount of traffic that would be generated by the development, the impacts of this new traffic on roadway segments and intersections, traffic safety issues such as vehicle and pedestrian visibility along Laurel Way, emergency vehicle access, and the project parking design and adequacy. Where appropriate and possible, the EIR will include mitigation measures that could reduce the project impacts on traffic and transportation to a less than significant level. Utilities MHAI RMT understands that no utilities currently serve the project area. MHA I RMT will investigate the specific infrastructure improvements that would be required to provide water, wastewater, electricity, trash and recycling collection, and other utility services to the site, and whether the utility companies that supply these services have the capacity to serve the project site. aElement 2.1.
