Summary
LA Fitness Traffic Study Report, included in FEIR fails to meet Seal Beach Traffic Impact Study Guidelines (SBTISG), March 2010
Proposed project will create severe environmental hardship
on Rossmoor Center Way utterly ignored by Traffic Study
Consequences which weigh heavily on project success have not been disclosed to the public, nor the decision body
Parking data
omitted from Traffic Study & presented by Staff is incorrect, incomplete and presents a distorted picture

This space should be coming out of Shops @ Rossmoor property
Hazard to motorists
Hazard to truckers
Hazard to residents
6
Situation
Allocation of Shops @ Rossmoor Parking space to account for truck staging is mandatory - existing condition on RCW intolerable!
Truck Service considerations must be addressed, should
be included in FEIR as it is directly relevant to safe traffic flow
Parking considerations are a part of the Seal Beach Traffic Impact Study Guidelines - yet truck parking addressed
nowhere
Internal Circulation of Trucks and Customer vehicles, and Busses and their stops required by TISG, yet not included in the FEIR despite it being directly relevant to safe traffic
flow

Conclusion
City’s own Guidelines have not been followed
Complete Parking, required by SB, are NOT disclosed by Responsible Agency in the FEIR TIS
Internal Routing, required by SB, is NOT disclosed
by Responsible Agency in the FEIR TIS
Truck Service & Loading-Dock resources, required by SB, are NOT disclosed by Responsible Agency in FEIR TIS
Bus routes thru project, and stops,
required by SB, are NOT disclosed by Responsible Agency in the FEIR TIS
We respectfully request that you reject the certification of the EIR and deny the CUP request. At a minimum,
we request that you direct staff to order a new EIR correcting the many deficiencies we have pointed out, including doing a proper traffic study, as urged by the County of Orange.

Final Questions
Why have these issues not been disclosed in the formal record (FEIR) nor fairly represented to either the Public, nor the Seal Beach decision body?
Why should Sprouts & Shops trucks
be pushed onto public or residential streets jeopardizing public and truckers safety?
Will a Senior Meals attendee be able to ride the Jitney directly to the gym – or will they have
to go home first? Where is the Bus Stop for it?
How much pollution will the 112 Jitney bus trips produce per day? Where is that accounted for? Who is funding them?
