                     brochures  on  trip  reduction  strategies,  such  as  car  pooling  and  transit  services  to
                     minimize  traffic  generation  in  the  area  (the  brochures  should  have  specific  avecage
                     vehicle ridership  goals  for students and  staff members).  We also recommend the plan
                     include  a  mechanism  for  enforcement  and  levying  of  noncompliance  penalties.
                     The recordation  of the  map  shall  be  withheld  until  the  traffic  circulation  informational
                     packets  and  the  detailed  school  site  plan  has  been  received  and  approved  by
                     Public Works.

                     The installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Skyline Ranch Road  at S-A Street
                     may  be  warranted  in  the  future  due  to  the  close  proximity  of the  proposed  elementary
                     school.  The  project's developer shall enter into a secured  agreemenl/bond with  Public
                     Works  to guarantee the  installation of a traffic signal when  the traffic conditions warrant
                     its installation.  The intersection shall  be  monitored for the insta'lation of the signal once
                     the  school  is  opened and  every year thereafter for up  to  5 years  after the  certificate  of
                     occupancy  of the  last  unit  is  issued.  The  project's  developer shall  submit an  annual
                     traffic  signal  warrant analysis  to  Public Works  for  review  and  approval.  When  a traffic
                     signal  is  warranted,  the  project's  developer  shall  design  the  necessary  striping  and
                     signal  plans  and  construct  the  signal  to  the  satisfaction  of Public Works.  Any  security
                     for  the  traffic  signal  construction  submitted  will  be  returned  once  the  construction  1s
                     completed  to  the  satisfaction  of  Public  Works  or  at  the  expiration  of  the  above-
                     mentioned monitoring program.


                     The  project is  within  the  Via  Princessa  Bridge  and  Major Thorpl.ighfare  (B&T)  District.
                     The project shall  pay its  share of the Via  Princessa B& T District fees.  Prior to  approval
                     of the  final  map,  if any improvements constructed  by the project developer are  included
                     as  improveme!1ts in  the  Via  Princess a B& T District,  then  the  co~t  of lhe improvements
                     may be credited against the project's District fee obligation if approved by Public Works.

                     The project shall  submit conceptual  striping plans  and  corresponding cost estimates for
                     all proposed mitigation measures to Public Works for review.

                     Caltrans  should  be  consulted  for  any  possible  California  Environmental  Quality  Act
                     (CEQA) impacts to the freeway system in  the area.  Therefore, we ask that you  provide
                     Caltrans with  a copy of the  report so  they have an opportunity to review it prior to  public
                     circulation.  Any  written  comments  received  from  Caltrans  should  be  submitted  lo
                     Public Works  and  included in  the Environmental Impact Report (EIR).


                     The  City of Santa Clarita  shall  review this document to determine whether they concur
                     with  the  study's  findings  of  the  potential  CEQA  impacts  within  their  jurisdiction.
                     Any written  comments  from  the  City shall  be submitted to  Public Works  and  included  in
                     the EIR.
