Thelgreatest relative increase due to the zone change would be eight (8) additional trips in the PM <br />peak hour, which is a minor contribution of trips. The nearest signalized intersections are <br />approximately: 730 feet to the north at Howard Avenue and River Road; and 1,630 feet to the <br />south at Horn Lane and River Road. The industry standard for determining intersections to be <br />studied for traffic impacts by.a development is 50 peak trips; therefore, the anticipated eight trips <br />would not warrant review of any operational issues at these intersections. Nevertheless, these <br />intersections are performing above required level of service (LOS) standard, which is "D" for <br />signalized intersections; the intersection at Horn is operating at LOS A and LOS B at Howard. <br />Further, given'the current operating levels of the adjacent street (River Road currently carries <br />around 20,000 average daily trips and has the capacity to carry 1,500 vehicles per hour), the <br />contribution of trips will not exacerbate existing traffic problems in the area. Nor would the <br />proposal change the functional classification of adjacent streets. Therefore, the proposed change <br />in zone results in no significant effect on any planned or existing facilities under OAR 660-012- <br />0060(1)(a), (b) or (c) and, therefore, OAR 660-012-0060(2) is inapplicable in this instance. <br />Given the findings above the zone change is consistent with TPR. <br />I <br />Findi i gs - Brunner Schmitz House (Z 10-12) Page 8 <br />I <br />408
