Resolution Number .J~ . EXHIBIT A PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CIRCULATION ELEMENT SECTION TWO: TRANSPORTATION AS IT APPLIES TO THE NEEDS OF THE CITY AND OTHER GENERAL PLAN ELEMENTS I RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER ELEMENTS: LAND USE The circulation system of a community is intimately related to other aspects of it. This relationship is reflected in the effects of circulation on the other elements of the General Plan; specifically, the Land Use and Bicycle Route Elements. The most important relationship is with the Land Use Element since ~t is here that the intensities of demand on the transportation system may be understood. Because of the modest nature of proposed development prescribed in the adopted Land Use Element, little impact on the circulation system is anticipated. Regarding industrial development, sixty acres are planned. Accessibility to the sites is high and based on existing traffic flows, there will be a capability to meet the future circulation demand. . , Thirty-six acres of commercially zoned property in the City are I yet to be developed. These sites are located throughout the City and the greatest concentration is in the area north of the San Diego Freeway on either side of Seal Beach Boulevard (near the Rossmoor Center). This arterial is presently below capacity and the antlcipated development, if it occurs, could be adequately absorbed in the circualtion system. The proposed residential development, totaling 120 acres, with an increased population of about 2700 persons, is scattered throughout the City. However, the largest concentration is expected to occur in the Coastal District. Approximately 147 acreas behind Marina Hill are subject to development through the Specific Plan process. This development includes a road system to both serve the 773 unit development and serve traffic in the immediate area. S~CTION ~REE: MODES OF TRANSPORTATION LAND TRANSPORTATION This medium consists of all activities that occur on streets and highways or that a~e related to them. In this area roadways are the principal means of circulation. Activities taking place on streets that are of concern to the City are automobile usage, I public transportation and parking. Circulation in the Coastal District is of specific concern. I I I Resolution Number ~~~ , EXHIBIT A PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CIRCULATION ELEMENT Page 2 Roadway Proposals In referring to the Circulation Element Map attached to the back of this document it may be noted that the streets considered to be significant have been classified. These streets have been considered significant as based on the criteria of volume of traffic and right-of-way. The present circulation element, adopted in 1967 required certain changes. Listed below are those proposed changes, as shown on the map. It should be noted that in some cases minor deviation from right-of-way standard has ,been deemed appropriate by the City, but this is not anticipated to present any problems. . . II Reclassification of First Street from Pacific Coast Highway to Marina Drive from a major street (120' right-of-wayl to primary (100' right-of-wayl. Also, reclassification of this street from Marina Drive to Ocean Avenue from a major to a secondary street (82' right-of-wayl. Due to density reductions in the area as prescribed in the City's Land Use Element, the additional right-of-way will not be necessary. However, it will be necessary to increase the right-of- way south of Marina Drive from the existing 60 feet to meet the anticipated need. 21 Development secondary Circulation of Arterial of Marina Drive (to commence shortlyl as a street in compliance with the City's Element and the Orange County Master Plan Highways. 31 Reclassification of Golden Rain Road and St. Andrews Drive (Leisure World) from principal to secondary streets, based on traffic volume. Even though these are private streets, it would be in the City's best interest to reclassify these streets. 41 Link Seal Beach Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway to the west with a secondary street (80' riiht-of-Wayl. .This would entail a First Street extension rom Pacific Coast Highway. From this point, the road would .parallel the San Gabriel River, the curve east behind Marina Hill and Gum Grove Park, and tie in with Seal Beach Boulevard. A principal street would be developed from the 'First Street extension to Westminster Avenue. Suggested alignment for this street is located between the existing North American Rockwell facility and the Resolution tt1mber 3J~t:, EXHIBIT A PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CIRCULATION ELEMENT Page 3 I Flood Control Basin area to the west. Regency Drive, a secondary street (BI' right-of-way) w~ll provide an interconnection between Seal Beach Boulevard and the proposed north-south principal street connecting Westminster Avenue and the First Street extension. Two sets of rivate principal streets are roposed to serve t e reSl entla areas 0 t e amended Hellman Ranch Specific Plan. These streets would intersect the First Street extension at several olnts. These developments are proposed or the 0 oWlng reasons: . A. The City could achieve a loop system for the Coastal District thus diverting some of the residential and beach-oriented traffic fhat presently travels Seal Beach Boulevard, Bolsa Avenue and Main Street. B. Accessability from Westminster Avenue to First Street extension could be ensured. I I - -......-...- - .- -..-..-.....----7~ .....- 0/. '&J<P . mber Resolutlon . .
