Presentation: ROB BALEN, Planning Consultant Workshop on Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for East Tustln Specific Plan Development Agreement. Presentation: JEFFREY S. DAVIS, Acting Senior Planner Jeff Davis made a brief presentation on the background of the proposed Development Agreement and Supplemental EIR. Mr. Davis announced that there would be a public hearing on these matters October 13th before the Planning Commission and a public hearing before the City Council October 20th. Mr. Tom Smith, Principal, MBA consultants, introduced Mr. Gary Jacobs, Project Manager in charge of preparation of Supplemental EIR and Mr. Tony Skidmore, Project Manager in charge of the original EIR for the East Tustin Specific Plan. Mr. Smith explained why a Supplemental EIR is necessary. Mr. Smith indicated that the Development Agreement, and, therefore the SEIR, focus on impacts and proposed mitigation relating to project implementation phasing and required infrastructure improvement phasing. Mr. Smith pointed out that the SEIR primarily assesses impacts associated with traffic and circulation, public services and infrastructure needed to support the project and hydrology/drainage impacts. Chairman Puckett requested questions from the Planning Commission. Commissioner Wetl stated that the SEIR was a very thorough and well done document. Ms. Well had particular questions regarding the city's liability and liability insurance provisions in the Development Agreement and flood control provisions covered in the SEIR. Mr. Smith responded that there are controls required in the project implementation phase as governed by the City and County Flood Control District. City Attorney Lois Jeffrey replied that the City had limited exposure to liability and that the proposed bodily injury liability coverage was more than adequate. Commissioner Puckett questioned whether there was a problem with off-ramp spacing along the freeway. Mr. Terry Austin, Austtn-Foust Traffic Engineers, responded that the SEIR analyzed the off-ramp and on-ramp spacing and found that there were no problems. Planning Commission Minutes September 22, 1986 page four Mr. Balen requested the traffic consultant to explain the level of analysis done for the SEIR and its relationship to the Development Agreement. Mr. Austin responded that traffic impacts related to infrastructure improvements, project phasing and delay of some key mitigation improvements were assessed and that further mitigation was suggested in some cases. In addition, Mr. Austin commented that traffic analysis indicates that at ultimate build-out the traffic impacts of the East Tustin Specifc Plan are fully mitigated. Mr. Balen further explained the role of a Development Agreement and the level of impact assessment that is included in the SEIR. Mr. Puckett indicated that there were no further questions. COMMISSION CONCERNS Commissioner Well requested Rob Balen check into the Minutes preparation to ensure the Commission's justification for their vote on the motions be reflected.
