  • Transportation and Traffic
    4.13 TRANSPORTATION AND TRAFFIC This chapter describes the existing traffic conditions of the EA Study Area and evaluates the potential envi- ronmental consequences of future development that could occur by adopting and implementing the pro- posed Housing Element Update, General Plan Consistency Update, and associated Zoning Ordinances amendments, together referred to as the “Plan Components” on transportation and traffic. A summary of the relevant regulatory setting and existing conditions is followed by a discussion of Plan Components and cumulative impacts. The chapter is based on the traffic analysis prepared by TJKM Transportation Consultants dated March 8, 2013, herein referred to as “Traffic Study.” The future baseline traffic volumes have been developed from output of the City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) travel demand model run by the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). The travel demand associated with the Plan Components have been obtained from the C/CAG Model based upon the anticipated future land uses that have been developed resulting from the land use controls under Near-Term 2014 and 2035 condi- tions. The complete Traffic Study and technical appendices are included in Appendix F of this EA. A. Regulatory Framework 1. Federal Laws and Regulations a. Federal Highway Administration The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is the agency of the United States (U.S.) Department of Transportation (DOT) responsible for the federally-funded roadway system, including the interstate high- way network and portions of the primary State highway network, such as Interstate 280 (I-280). b.

    Menlo Park Fire Protection District California COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT: STANDARDS OF C2019OVER Community Risk Assessment: Standards of Cover Menlo Park Fire Protection District, CA Introduction The following report serves as the Menlo Park Fire Protection District’s Community Risk Assessment: Standards of Cover. It follows the Center for Fire Public Safety Excellence (CPSE) 6th Edition Community Risk Assessment: Standards of Cover model that develops written procedures to determine the distribution and concentration of a fire and emergency service agency’s fixed and mobile resources. The purpose of completing such a document is to assist the agency in ensuring a safe and effective response force for fire suppression, emergency medical services, and specialty response situations. Creating a Community Risk Assessment: Standards of Cover document requires that a number of areas be researched, studied, and evaluated. This report will begin with an overview of both the community and the agency. Following this overview, the plan will discuss areas such as risk assessment, critical task analysis, agency service-level objectives, and distribution and concentration measures. The report will provide an analysis of historical performance and will conclude with policy and operational recommendations. ESCI extends its appreciation to the elected officials, business members, and community members of the District and the cities they protect, the members of the Fire District, and all others who contributed to this plan.

Dear Stakeholders, Caltrain needs to be modernized. We need to implement Caltrain electrification, procure electric trains and install CBOSS PTC (an advanced signal system). These efforts will allow us to operate an electric rail service that is safer, more efficient and “greener”. The vision for Caltrain is clear and has been confirmed by the Joint Powers Board and the region. However, funding for modernizing the system has been illusive and the greatest impediment to project advancement. In 2008, the voters approved Proposition 1A which authorized state funding for high speed rail in California. This was clearly a significant milestone for the state of California, but also for Caltrain. The high speed rail project, an electrified system, has been defined to use the Caltrain corridor to reach its northern terminus, downtown San Francisco. What this means is that Caltrain and high speed rail can combine local and new resources to advance electrification of the Peninsula rail corridor. Since the passage of Proposition 1A, Caltrain and high-speed rail have been defining infrastructure

  • Caltrain Rail Corridor Use Policy Document
    CALTRAIN RAIL CORRIDOR USE POLICY Overview and Background on the Rail Corridor Use Policy The Rail Corridor Use Policy is a policy that has been adopted by the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (JPB) to guide the use of its property and support delivery of Caltrain’s Long-Term Service Vision. The JPB frequently receives proposals for “non-railroad uses” of its property, such as utilities, commercial businesses, development proposals, or community facilities. In accordance with the JPB’s Policy of Property Conveyance (Resolution 2010-45), the agency has an extensive review process for such proposals, including design, engineering, and regulatory review, and non-railroad uses of JPB property that have been reviewed and approved by the JPB are issued a Property Access Agreement. The first step in the review process for Property Access Agreements is for Caltrain staff to determine if the proposed use is compatible with the railroad’s current and future needs. The railroad’s future needs for its property are directly connected to achieving Caltrain’s Long-Term Service Vision, which was unanimously adopted by the Caltrain Board of Directors on October 3, 2019. Developed through the Caltrain Business Plan process, the Long-Term Service Vision describes a substantially expanded rail service on the Caltrain corridor by 2040, with a minimum of eight trains per hour operating in the peak period in each direction between San Francisco and San Jose. In order to support this growth in train service, the Caltrain Business Plan also identified the conceptual infrastructure that will be needed to operate more trains on the corridor and achieve the Long-Term Service Vision.

  • 4.9 Land Use and Planning Policy
    4. Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures 4.9 Land Use and Planning Policy This section evaluates the land use-related effects of the Specific Plan. Potential land use impacts that would result from implementation of the Specific Plan are identified. This section also contains a discussion of the consistency of the Specific Plan with relevant land use policies. However, policy conflicts do not constitute, in and of themselves, a significant environmental impact. Policy conflicts are considered to be environmental impacts only when they would result in direct physical impacts. All other associated physical impacts are discussed in this EIR in specific topical sections, such as the noise, air quality, and transportation sections. 4.9.1 Environmental Setting The following section describes the existing land uses within the Plan area and summarizes relevant land use policy. Note that the City of Menlo Park street grid is offset from exact compass directions. For the purposes of this discussion, streets that run relatively parallel to the Caltrain tracks are described as running north (toward San Francisco) and south (toward San Jose). Similarly, streets that run relatively parallel to the San Francisquito Creek are described as running east (toward the San Francisco Bay) and west (toward the Santa Cruz Mountains). The location of uses and buildings are similarly described according to these directions. The Plan area is located in the City of Menlo Park in San Mateo County. Menlo Park is located on the San Francisco Peninsula, approximately 30 miles south of San Francisco and approximately 20 miles north of San Jose. The Plan area is located along El Camino Real from Watkins Avenue in the north to San Francisquito Creek in the south.
