4.15 Transportation
4.15 – Transportation 4.15 Transportation This section describes the existing traffic/circulation setting near the proposed Sand Canyon Resort Project (project) site, identifies associated regulatory requirements, and evaluates potential adverse impacts related to (1) conflicts with an applicable program, plan, ordinance, or policy addressing the circulation system including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities; (2) conflict or inconsistency with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15064.3(b); (3) a substantial increase in hazards due to a geometric design feature; and (4) inadequate emergency access. Following the impact analysis, this section lists any applicable project design features and identifies mitigation measures required related to implementation of the proposed project. The following discussion summarizes the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis and Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prepared by Stantec on August 7, 2020, and November 8, 2019, respectively, per requirements established by the revised CEQA Guidelines, the City of Santa Clarita Traffic Study Guidelines (City of Santa Clarita 1990), and the Transportation Analysis Updates in Santa Clarita (City of Santa Clarita 2020a). Additionally, a Transportation Demand Management Plan and a Parking Analysis for Sand Canyon Resort have been prepared by Stantec. All reports are included as Appendix J of this Environmental Impact Report (EIR). 4.15.1 Environmental Setting This section describes key roadway segments and intersections, as well as transit, pedestrian, and biking facilities within the vicinity of the proposed project. Existing Roadway System The proposed project is located in the southeast portion of the City of Santa Clarita (City).

City of Santa Clarita General Plan Circulation
City of Santa Clarita General Plan Circulation CIRCULATION ELEMENT June, 2011 PART 1: BACKGROUND AND CIRCULATION ISSUES A. Purpose and Intent of the Circulation Element The Santa Clarita Valley’s circulation system provides vital connections linking neighborhoods, services, and employment centers throughout the community and the region. A comprehensive transportation network of roadways, multi-use trails and bike paths, bus transit, and commuter rail provides mobility options to Valley residents and businesses. Planning for the ultimate location and capacity of circulation improvements will also enhance economic strength and quality of life in the Valley. The Circulation Element plans for the continued development of efficient, cost-effective and comprehensive transportation systems that are consistent with regional plans, local needs, and the Valley’s community character. The Circulation Element complements and supports the Land Use Element, insofar as a cohesive land use pattern cannot be achieved without adequate circulation. The Circulation Element identifies and promotes a variety of techniques for improving mobility that go beyond planning for construction of new streets and highways. These techniques include: development of alternative travel modes and support facilities; increased efficiency and capacity of existing systems through management strategies; and coordination of land use planning with transportation planning by promoting concentrated, mixed-use development near transit facilities. B. Background The California Government Code describes conditions and data that must be researched, analyzed, and discussed in a Circulation Element. Section 65302(b) states that the general plan shall include the general location and extent of existing and proposed major thoroughfares, transportation routes, terminals and other local public utilities and facilities. -

November 2009 Metrolink Matters
METROLINK NeWs & eVeNts • NoVEMBER ’09 (800) 371-LINK • metrolinktrains.com Metrolink Makes Safety History by Installing Onboard Cameras Last month, Metrolink became the first railroad system in the country—passenger or freight—to install inward-facing video cameras. This landmark safety action is part of our continuous effort to enhance the safety and security of our trains for our thousands of passengers, crew members, and railway workers, as well as for all residents of Southern California. The new technology, called a Locomotive Digital Video Recorder System, includes three cameras per locomotive—an outward-facing camera that records activity in front of the train and two inward-facing cameras that record the control panels and human activities inside the locomotive cab. The system also picks up sound inside the cab. The system has been activated in each of our 52 locomotives. This equipment will also be included in the 57 new Crash Energy Management– equipped lead passenger cab cars that we will place into service in the coming year. We installed these cameras to prevent dangerous and inappropriate activity, including text messaging and allowing unauthorized persons in the cab—safety concerns that were revealed during the National Transportation Safety Board’s hearing on last fall’s tragic collision in Chatsworth. The cameras will also help us confirm that our trains are being operated properly. The installation of inward-facing video cameras was a key recommendation of the independent Commuter Rail From Left to Right: Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, SCRRA Board’s Vice Chairman Richard Katz, Chairman Safety Peer Review Panel convened last fall by the SCRRA Board of Directors. -

3.15 Public Services
3.15 PUBLIC SERVICES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This section discusses community facilities, health and social services, education, fire protection, and police protection within the City’s Planning Area. The City’s Planning Area consists of its incorporated boundaries and adopted Sphere of Influence (SOI). The County’s Planning Area consists of unincorporated land outside the City’s boundaries and SOI within the One Valley One Vision (OVOV) Planning Area boundaries. Both the City and the County Planning Areas comprise the OVOV Planning Area. Implementation of the proposed General Plan would allow development that will potentially impact public services. This environmental impact report (EIR) section examines the effects of General Plan buildout on public services. Potential impacts on public services were found to be less than significant. Community Facilities Library Services The potential impacts on community facilities found within the City’s Planning Area included an analysis on the number of library items, such as books, periodicals, videos, CDs and CD-ROM software, audio recordings, audio books, DVDs, and pamphlets; library square feet, and the number of library meeting rooms. Each impact area had the criteria of 2.75 items per 1,000 residents, and 0.5 square feet per 1,000 residents Currently, there is a surplus of 62,620 library items, and a deficit of 46,718 square feet. At buildout there would need to be 756,250 library items and 137,500 square feet. With the implementation of the planned library expansions and the inclusion of the existing resources there would be a deficit of 195,936 library items and a surplus of 45,172 square feet.
