June 14, 1989 (CC Meeting of 6-21-89)
SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN UPDATE (GPA-89-1/ZC-89-1)
Backgrginu
At the Council's May 17, 1989, meeting, staff was directed to contact all
of the current applicants for the General Plan update to obtain .payment of
the revised fair -share costs. The eleven applicants were given until .June
2, 1989, to deposit the additional funds. The additional money has been
received from ten applicants. As identified on the attached letter, Mr.
and Mrs. Charles J. Gisler have decided to withdraw their application,
because the revised fair -share cost (totaling $20,274.86) was not
financially feasible for them at this time. Staff will be processing a
refund of the Gisler's original deposit of $7,382.46 minus a deduction for
staff time ($130).
Discussion
General Plan Update Costs:
The total estimated General Plan Update costs including the P➢R contract
and City staff costs is estimated to be $234,272.93. A total of
$213,998.07 has been deposited by the ten current applicants. The latest
estimate from PER (dated June 6) identifies that PBR's total cost for the
General Plan Update would be $143,500.00. Subtracting $143,.500.00 from the
money already on deposit ($213,998.07) would leave $70,498.07 available for
staff costa. Since staff had originally identified to the Council that an
added 50 percent should be provided for City Staff time plus administrative
costs, and the $70,498.07 represents 49.1.3 percent, the current amount on
deposit is considered adequate to initiate the General Plan Update process.
Staff will monitor the amount of staff time spent on the update, and the
applicants will be required to submit additional funds if the $70,498.07 is
not adequate to pay staff costs. Staff mould recommend that additional
funds be requested from the applicants when 80 percent of the $70,498.07
amount has been expended.

On June S. 1989, the Council's Community Development Committee met with Ken
Ryan of PBR to discuss why the cost only decreased slightly when the number
of participants went down so much. PBR explained that a majority of the
work still needed to be done even though a large number of applicants had
dropped out. The Committee suggested contacting the runner-up consultant
firm to see if they were interested in considering a decrease in their cost
proposal inasmuch as the scope of work had changed. Staff contacted the
firm of Cotton/Beland Associates. This firm identified that they were
still interested and they would be willing to give the City a revised
budget. Their only concern was the fact that they are unavailable until
September of this year to start work. Their revised budget is $163,600
including the traffic model.
While staff is recommending initiation of the contract with PBR using the
funds already deposited by the ten applicants, there are several other
options available to the Council which are identified below.
1. Terminate all general plan processing at this time and refund all
monies deposited less staff costs spent on processing as of June 21,
1989.
2. Reject PBR's contract proposal and revised budget and direct staff to
go back out for proposals.
3. Accept applicants' money and hire additional staff to accomplish the
work in-house with the exception of the traffic model.
4. Accept PBR's contract and revised budget and direct staff to contact
the current ten applicants to obtain additional funds to cover the
$20,274.86 deficit prior to initiating the contract with PBR
Application Revisions
At the Council's May 17, 1989 meeting, staff was authorized to request
specific location maps and acreages from the applicants for all requested
land use designations. In addition, staff was directed to inform all
applicants that the General Plan Update would analyze only the original
requests of the applicants (as approved by the Council), upon which the PBR
proposal was based, unless the revised proposal represented a decrease in
development potential for the property. At that May 17 meeting, the
Council did authorize a change to the Levy and Guny proposals, because the
applicants had submitted revised land use proposals which would result in
less overall site development (i.e., less trips).
Staff has subsequently received requests from Moorpark Ranch and Milling
and the Moorpark Unified School District for revisions to their original
land use proposal. The requested changes are identified on the following
page.
Page 3
June 14, 1989
1. Moorpark Ranch and Milling: Staff has also received a request from
Moorpark Ranch and Milling, Inc., to slightly modify their original land
use request (letter attached). They are now proposing to change the
configuration of the land uses on their property. The overall area for
each of the land uses would not change. In other words, they would still
have 17.19 acres of High Density Residential, 9.47 acres of Very High
Residential, and 8.74 acres of General Commercial land uses; however, the
location of these uses on their property may change. Staff confirmed with
Mr. Nielsen of Moorpark Reach and Milling by telephone, today, that they
will drop out of the process if they are not allowed to reconfigure their
land use proposal as discussed. Staff does not see a problem with this
proposal.
2. Moorpark Unified School District: In response to our request for a
specific location map and acreages for the District's General Plan
amendment application, Sege Institute, Inc., has submitted five different
land use alternatives (letter attached). Staff recommends that these
alternatives be rejected, because they are not consistent with the original
land use concept the Council approved for consideration in the General Plan
Update (which was for High Density Residential, Recreation/Park, and
General Commercial land uses). Even the total acreage amount has been
changed from 21.26 acres to 26.1 acres.
To be consistent with the position that the City has taken with all of the
other applicants, the City should not accept an alternative land use
concept from the District, unless it represents a decrease in development
potential for the property and would result in fewer trips. Staff has
informed other applicants that they could submit revised land use proposals
to the General Plan Update consultant (as in the case of Levy and Gary), if
such a request involved a less intense development impact. The PBR
proposal states that they will analyze two alternative land use concepts
for each of the amendment requests, to include: an analysis of what the
impacts and affects would be if the land use designation were to change to
one General Plan land use designation higher than the current designation,
and one General Plan land use designation lower than what has been
requested. This is all the City can expect, unless the scope of work is
amended. Changing the scope of work at this time is not recommended.
Staff will send a letter to Sage Institute, Inc., which identifies why the
submitted land use concepts are not acceptable, as discussed above.
Reco®endat [an
1. That the City Council Initiate the PBR contract and direct staff to
contact all remaining applicants to obtain additional funding for
staff costs when 80 percent of the funds set aside for staff time and
administrative costs have been expended.
2. That the City Council authorize staff to automatically seek additional
funds from the remaining applicants should further withdrawals occur
in the General Plan Update process.

General Plan Update
Accessors Parcel No. 511-08-0635 CITY OF MOORPARK
635 Los Angeles Avenue
Dear Mr. Richards and Honorable City Council Members:
On behalf of my grandparents, Mr, and Mrs. Charles J.
Gisler, I am writing to inform you that their application for
entitlement to general plan amendment and zone change is hereby
withdrawn.
As you know, my grandparents are pioneer citizens of
Moorpark, having resided in Moorpark for 64 years and at their
present residence since 1929. My grandparents were motivated to
apply for a zone change so that their property could eventually be
developed consistent with the property's commercial location.
However, the city council's decision, as stated in your May 19 letter
to my grandparents (which they did not receive until May 26), to
revise their fair share cost to $12,892.40 is not financially
possible.
It is unfortunate that the formula for allocation selected
by the city council has led to several applicants withdrawing from
consideration. However, as a result, my grandparents are left with
no choice but to withdraw their application and to request the City
of Moorpark to refund their March 29, 1989 deposit of $7,382.46.

My grandparents strongly believe that the location of their
property is ideally suited for development consistent with a C-2
General Commercial zoning. In fact, under the 1972-74 General Plan,
the property was designated as Commercial. This zoning will allow
the property to be utilized in a manner consistent with other parcels
contiguous to Los Angeles Avenue and consistent with a uniform and
more centralized commercial development scheme. In order to provide
for the uniform and appropriate development of the City of Moorpark,
all property, including my grandparents', should be evaluated
consistent with this goal. Please keep me advised, on my
grandparents' behalf, of all City Council activity in connection with
this project so that my grandparents, as long standing and
distinguished residents of Moorpark, can assure that their interests
and concerns are presented to the members of the City Council.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and if you have
any questions or comments concerning my grandparents' withdrawal, I
would appreciate it if you would direct any inquiries to me_
Very truly yours,
HAWaOCK, ROTHERT & BCNSHOFT

Subject: Moorpark General Plan Update
Dear Councilmembers Harper and Lawrason:
Thank you for meeting earlier this week with Ken Ryan of my staff to discuss
the status of our refined budget for the Moorpark General Plan Update.
We are very much aware of and in sympathy with the difficult financing chal-
lenges your Council faces in order to initiate work on the General Plan up-
date, particularly in light of the recent reduction of GPA study participants.
With these considerations in mind, we have again re-evaluated our proposed
budget (attached). All of the cost reductions discussed to date have been in-
corporated into the attached refined budget, including:
$3,500 reduction per GPA request reductions
$3,000 reduction for combined General Plan Update/Specific Plan
cost savings _
$2,000 reduction for eliminating 4th alternative in traffic study
$5,000 reduction for eliminating additional traffic counts
Given the current scope of work, we do not believe any further reductions to
the budget can be made and still provide the City with the high quality
product it desires.

Re: Response to Request For Information, Update to City of
Moorpark General Plan
Dear Mr. Richards;
The purpose of this letter is to respond, on behalf of the
Moorpark Unified School District, to the City of Moorpark's
recent request, dated May 23, 1989, for additional information
regarding the District's application for a General Plan Amendment
and zone change on the Casey Road School Site.
The City's relatively short time frame for submittal of the
required information was exacerbated by the fact that the
District did not receive the letter until May 30, 1989. In
addition, although the District's Consultant, Sage Institute,
Inc., was copied on the letter, our copy was never received,
probably due to an incorrectly referenced address. This further
limited the time available for preparation of our response.
The District's Land Use and Civil Engineer, Kent Gannfors, will
be doing a detailed analysis of the precise land use potential
for the subject site. The city's timing constraints, combined
with the minimum 30 day time period required by Mr. Gannfors to
complete his study, precludes the availability of the engineering
analysis at this time.
However, in a sincere effort to comply with the City's request,
we are submitting herewith several preliminary land use concepts
which are under consideration. These land use alternatives are
depicted on the attached maps.
The analysis of the Site's land use potential is a complex and
sensitive undertaking, limited by the fact that the property is
not raw land; rather, the site contains substantial school

facility improvements. The disposition of the structures must be
carefully studied and integrated into the overall site
utilization plan.
The information presented herein responds to the city's request
for information regarding the extent and location of the proposed
land uses, and as requested, identifies the boundaries and
proposed land use designation areas in acres. The School
District's supplemental fair share fee of $6,300.36 for the
General Plan Update has already been forwarded to the City.
I would like to arrange, at your earliest possible convenience, a
meeting between you and the City's Land Use Consultant to discuss
in further detail the School District's General Plan Update
application.
My office will be contacting you next week to schedule this
meeting. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me
if I can be of any assistance or answer any questions that you
may have.

Re: Update to the Land Use and
Circulation Elements of the
City of Moorpark General Plan
Dear Ms. Traffenstedt:
We are pleased to enclose our check in the amount of $19,508.35,
representing the additional amount of the revised fair share cost of our
participation in the General Plan Update process.
As discussed with you today by telephone, our original land use
designation request has always been in the alternative for either all
Commercial or a combination of Commercial, Very High Density Residential and
High Density Residential. We have consistently stated our request to be in the
alternative at public hearings and informal meetings over the last several
years. Nevertheless, in order to expedite the funding of the General Plan
Update process, we are acquiescing in the City's decision not to analyze our
alternative request for all Commercial use on the express understanding from
you that we will be given the opportunity to present information to the City's
consultant in support of the all Commercial use.
Further, we also understand from you that we will not be bound by the
specific boundaries shown in our present land use request (as distinguished
from the acreages in such request). In order to determine more accurately the
proposed boundaries to be analyzed by the City's consultant, we will need until
July 17, 1989 to submit the required location map. We anticipate that the
proposed boundaries on such location map will be considerably different from
those set forth in our present request, although similar in physical area. our
continued participation in the General Plan Update process is necessarily
conditioned upon the City's agreement to accept the submittal of our revised
location map no later than July 17, 1989.
We look forward to working with the City's Staff as the General Plan
Update process moves forward. Thank you for the time you spent with Rad Sitnar
and myself on the telephone today.
Very truly yours,
Y�Nfels�

EXHIBIT 'A'
PHASE 1: GENERAL PLAN UPDATE STRATEGY REFINEIENT/DATA COLLECTION
TASK 1: REFINE PROJECT SCHEDULE/COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION PROGRAM
OBJECTIVE: Develop a refined project schedule including the timing for
citizen participation in the general plan process.
METHOD: Public participation for the General plan update will involve a
series of publicly noticed informational workshops sponsored by the Plan-
ning Commission on non -hearing dates. Public input acquired through the
workshop process will be transmitted to the City Council for specific
direction on subsequent work tasks. Work on the project will not continue
until the City Council has established this direction.
This task will involve the preparation of an overall project schedule as
well as a definitive workshop schedule, in collaboration with city staff,
to ensure that public participation is maximized throughout the process,
Workshops could be held at the following suggested milestones:
Review of Alternative Plans, Draft Goals and Objectives
Review of Preliminary Draft Land Use and Circulation Elements and
EIR
PRODUCT: Timetable and description of preliminary meeting topics for com-
munity participation in the General Plan revision process.
TASK 2: PREPARE BASE MAP
OBJECTIVE: Ensure utilization of accurate base maps of the existing condi-
tions upon which to base each element of the general plan to be updated.
METHOD: Consultant review of existing county base maps and city maps; com-
parative analysis with aerial photographs and field surveys as required to
prepare base maps.
1
3►
PRODUCT: Up-to-date, definitive base maps for use throughout the general
plan update process,
TASK 3: REVIEW AND EVALUATE EXISTING DATA/DEVELOP PLANNING DATA BASE
OBJECTIVE: Compile all existing information necessary for preparation of
the general plan update; organize a comprehensive planning data base; and
identify missing or incomplete data prior to initiation of planning
studies.
METHOD: Each member of the project team will prepare a checklist of the
types of data needed to prepare the general plan update. These lists will
be compiled by PBR and used to coordinate a centralized effort to acquire
necessary existing data. Each member of the consultant team will review
existing data, sort out that which is valid, and identify data gaps. From
the base data review and analysis, existing community conditions and
trends will be identified. A lot -by -lot inventory will also be conducted
as part of this effort. Basic community needs/problems, opportunities and
constraints affecting the city's evolution to the year 2010 will also be
identified as related to the Land Use Element and Circulation Element.
PRODUCT: A baseline data report containing text and graphics depicting
existing base data conditions, trends, needs, opportunities and con-
straints. The baseline data report will be organized to reflect both the
Land Use and Circulation Elements. -
TASK 4: TRAFFIC FORECAST/CIRCULATION ANALYSIS
OBJECTIVE: To compile all existing information on the current circulation
system, to identify the potential impacts on the existing system, to
determine current and future traffic generation and distribution, volume
and capacity, prior to developing concept alternatives.
METHOD:- This task will involve using land use data to produce long-range
traffic forecasts. Of importance in forecasting is the separation of
local and regional traffic components. The former will be based on
countywide traffic analysis data, while the latter will be derived from
land use forecasts within the city and its sphere of influence.
2
3J-
In addition, a comprehensive modeling analysis of the city's circulation
system will be made. Specific issues to be covered include the following:
Potential impacts of the 118/23 freeway connection, as quantified by
street and intersection levels of service. The primary circulation
element scenario will be general plan buildout with all amendments
approved, with a second scenario based on all development preceding
the freeway connection.
Estimate volumes of "pass through" traffic, ie., that traffic with
both trip ends outside of the city. These estimates shall include the
pass through traffic on Route 118 as well as the pass through traffic
on Route 23, potential land use changes, circulation or growth induce-
ment.
The effects of extending New Los Angeles Avenue to Collins Avenue.
Potential downgrading of the Los Angeles Avenue width requirements
through the Virginia Colony area.
The effects of the extension of High Street westerly from its existing
terminus to Gabbert Road north of the railroad.
Potential transportation corridors for Route 23 and Route 118,
including required right-of-way and Route 118 freeway ramps.
The effect of extending Spring Road northerly from High Street to
Broadway.
PRODUCT: Baseline traffic analysis and modeling of existing conditions as
well as alternative circulation scenarios.

PHASE II - IDENTIFY MAJOR ISSUES FORMULATE GOALS AND POLICIES
TASK 1: IDENTIFY ISSUES
OBJECTIVE: Focus the general plan program on areas of special interest
and concern, to establish an overall issue framework for developing vari-
ous plan alternatives for the city of Moorpark.
METHOD: Identification of issues will be based on discussions with the
city, review of existing data and the baseline data report.
PRODUCT: A priority list of key issues and problems, constraints and
opportunities to be addressed in the general plan for the city of
Moorpark.
TASK 2: DEVELOP GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
OBJECTIVE: Identify goals and policies which have been adopted by the
city council and regional agencies. Establish broad policies in the form
of goals and objectives which can be used in developing and testing alter-
natives for the general plan update.
METHOD: Existing city goals, objectives and policies for the city of Moor-
park as well as required programs will be reviewed. Meetings with city
staff will be held to develop a list of potential goals and objectives
which address major planning issues currently confronting Moorpark, as
well as those issues that may confront the community over the next twenty
years and beyond. These issues will include general as well as specific
items.
In addition to the more standard goals, objectives and policies developed
during this process, the following specific topics will be addressed,
Create goals and policies related to
single family and multifamily housing
desires and consistency with RHNA numbers*
obtaining an overall mix of
units based upon community
4
311
Create goals and policies related to minimum parcel sizes in open
space and areas over 20 percent slope.
Create goals and polices to preserve and protect features of cultural
and historical significance to the community and identify such by
site.
Create goals and policies to save and protect mature trees within the
community.
Create goals and policies related to the need to adopt guidelines to
mitigate the impact of exterior lighting and noise on and from adjoin-
ing parcels and adjacent public right-of-way.
Create goals and policies regarding future hillside development.
Goals and policies should promote open space and agricultural uses in
those areas over 20 percent slope. Also, such goals and policies will
relate to the identification and preservation of major ridgelines and
scenic viewsheds.
Create goals and policies related to the need.to protect the visual
freeway corridor (118/23 freeway connector).
Create goals and policies which will ensure that site planning and
design of development respects the predominantly low profile suburban
environment of Moorpark and enhances as well as respects the surround-
ing natural features.
Create goals and policies which promote appropriate residential densi-
ties in outlying canyon areas.
Create goals and policies regarding the extension of public services
in areas which provide significant natural constraints to development.
PRODUCT: A preliminary report compiling potential goals and policies
organized around the general plan element framework. This document will
5
35
form the basis to develop further discussion and to discern attitudes
toward specific policies for the city as a whole.
PHASE III - DEVELOP/SELECT ALTERNATIVE CONCEPT PLANS
PRODUCT: Baseline traffic analysis and modeling of existing conditions as
well as alternative circulation scenarios.
TASK 1: DEVELOP CONCEPT ALTERNATIVES
OBJECTIVE: To establish realistic measurements of physical and socioecon-
omic trends for use in structuring goals, policies and strategies. To
develop concept alternatives for the future of the community based on
goals and objectives. These alternatives will be based on circulation
improvements needed to relieve stress on the existing circulation system
and improvements needed for future development. One development scenario
will be based on development preceding the 118/23 freeway connection.
METHOD: Based on reviews of past trends in the county and city and needed
circulation improvements, the consultant team will prepare potential scen-
arios for future growth and change in Moorpark. These forecasts will be
used primarily to assist in establishing realistic strategies for the city
to adopt. Projections will be made to the year 2010 in selected areas.
Long-range factors, such as the following, will be considered in preparing
the scenarios:
Population characteristics and needs
Economic base/market analyses
City revenues and expenditures
Changes in the way cities are built (transportation, energy, etc.)
Potential annexations
These scenarios will also analyze all current general plan amendment
applications and provide recommendations regarding each. An additional
analysis involving each application entails a review at a lower land use
designation as well as the next higher intensity over the current designa-
tion.
C
3(AV
Individual topics of concern that will he analyzed during the preparation
of alternative plans include:
Areas south of Los Angeles Avenue from Spring Road to Liberty Bell
Road.
Potential multiple family residential land uses south of Majestic
Court and west of Moorpark Avenue.
A commercial office designation for the southwest corner of Los
Angeles Avenue and Spring Road,
The Stratthern Ranch property with an emphasis of potential growth
impacts to the city.
Freeway Business Center (Science Drive) ensuring that this area is
appropriately indicated in the new land use element.
Happy Camp Canyon Park illustrating precise boundaries.
North side of Los Angeles Avenue between the Edison substation and
American Products building.
Natural features within and adjacent to the community that requires
protective measures.
Consider both the growth and non -growth areas of the Countywide Plan-
ning Program (CPP) and the city's need to provide buffers or transi-
tional zones.
Based on these potential scenarios, the consultant will develop alterna-
tives for land use patterns, including required infrastructure and rela-
tionship to other specific elements of the general plan. Three alterna-
tive concepts will be completed for review.
PRODUCT: Three alternative concept plans based on different fundamental
assumptions relating to future growth and development in the city of Moor-
park.
7
31
TASK 2: EVALUATE ALTERNATIVE CONCEPT PLANS
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate alternative concept plans and alternatives to reflect
the circulation and land use analysis and select a preferred alternative
on which the general plan elements will be based.
METHOD: An initial technical evaluation of alternatives will be made in
relation to physical, social, economic, environmental resources of the com-
munity and the results of the circulation analysis. Alternatives will be
weighed in relation to potential environmental impacts as well as their
responsiveness to the needs and objectives of Moorpark. Clear delineation
of the technical evaluation will be important in the decision -making pro-
cess of selecting an alternative.
PRODUCT: A final selected planning alternative and land use map will be
refined in preparation of the general plan elements. This selected alter-
native may be a composite of components from the three separate alterna-
tives studied, but it will be a consensus plan which establishes the direc-
tion for the more detailed planning efforts in later tasks.
PHASE IV - PREPARE COMPREHENSIVE GENERAL PLAN ELEMENTS AND EIR
TASK 1: DEVELOP COMPREHENSIVE GENERAL PLAN ELEMENTS
OBJECTIVE: Development of a clear, concise summary of policies and gene-
ral plan processes for use as a continuing implementation tool. To pre-
pare each draft element for public review and evaluation in a program EIR.
To revise the draft elements to reflect comments received and to prepare
final plan elements for adoption.
MEMO: A modular notebook will be the basic organizational device for
the two elements of the general plan. The plan will detail elements/to-
pics mandated by state laws, plus additional topics unique to the needs of
the City of Moorpark, including a discussion of historical resources, air
quality and energy conservation, natural resource preservation, protection
of visual corridors and the maintenance of a low profile suburban environ-
ment.
Loa]
91
A basic objective in the preparation of the general plan is to focus the
land uses around the ability to provide adequate circulation and infra-
structure improvements. Flexibility to accommodate minor refinements in
community needs will make the plan a more viable document for continuing
use. Each element of the general plan will contain a summary of data and
analysis, adopted policies, and implementation strategies related to that
element.
General plan elements will be prepared based upon information obtained in
prior tasks. Draft general plan elements will be reviewed by city staff.
The draft general plan will be prepared in conjunction with the EIR. All
comments received on the draft plan elements will be compiled by the con-
sultant team and documented in writing. Responses to each comment will be
prepared and submitted to the city for review. Copies of the draft final
plan elements will then be submitted to the city for final public review.
The plan elements will be formatted to assure integration and consistency
among all general plan elements and will be presented in a loose-leaf
binder to facilitate revisions. Specific recommendations for changes to
other elements of the general plan to make them internally consistent will
also be provided. Maintenance procedures for the document involving possi-
ble computer applications will be recommended. The plan elements will
also be written in a concise format, with goal statements and policies
separate from the main body of each element for ease of reference.
PRODUCT: As described in subtasks below, one hundred (100) copies (maxi-
mum) of the draft plan elements will be prepared for city staff and public
review and for evaluation in the EIR. One hundred (100) copies (maximum)
final versions of the plan elements will be compiled into 3-ring note
binders; element divider tabs will be prepared. The document will be
reproduced and delivered to the city.
In addition to final general plan elements, an executive summary will be
produced for broad community dissemination. This executive summary will
concisely describe the general plan update and accompanying environmental
process in both a narrative and graphic context, discuss each mandatory
element included in the general plan. Seven hundred fifty (750) copies of
E
e
WiJ
the executive summary will be produced. Four final colored general plan
maps at a scale of 1" = 500' will be submitted to city staff following the
adoption of the general plan elements in addition to five standard
blackiines.
SUDTASK IA: REVISE CIRCULATION ELEMENT
OBJECTIVE: To revise the circulation element and map based on the Circula-
tion Analysis and work in close liaison with the city, county and Caltrans.
METHOD: Specific elements of work included in the preparation of the
circulation element involve the following:
Develop right-of-way and number of lanes (including parking) and
street section recommendations for arterials, secondaries and collec-
tor streets,
Provide specific street plan recommendations for the area bounded by
Los Angeles Avenue, Arroyo Simi, Maureen Lane and Liberty Bell Road.
Locate all future traffic signals on major arterials.
Develop bicycle/pedestrian/equestrian trail plans with detailed cross -
sections and standards.

. Review, and revise, as necessary county bikeway plates.
Develop a specific street plan (circulation) layout for the area
bounded by the Southern Pacific Railroad, Highway 118, the Southern
California Edison substation and DP-302.
Provide recommendations relative to an east -west arterial or collector
from Broadway to the eastern city limits.
Identify potential grade separation locations for railroad crossings.
Prepare alternative alignments for Lassen Avenue to connect to
Moorpark Avenue.
Provide freeway corridor visual design standards.
The results of these work tasks will be reviewed and incorporated into a
comprehensive circulation element which is compatible with the goals and
objectives established in Phase II, the circulation analysis in Phase III
and the land use elements. Options or alternatives for system improve-
ments will be highlighted. The recommended element and any alternatives
will be evaluated by the consultant team and will be reviewed with city
staff. A complete draft circulation element will then be prepared.
PRODUCT: A draft circulation element one hundred (100) copies (maximum)
with proposed system improvements and classifications will be prepared for
review by city staff and the public. Following public review, one hundred
(100) copies (maximum) of a circulation element will be prepared for city
adoption.
SUBTASK 1B: REVISE LARD USE ELEMENT
OBJECTIVE: To revise the element to reflect current and future condi-
tions, including circulation conditions, land use policies, and land use
designations which are consistent with the best interests of the community
and market constraints and opportunities.
11
41
METHOD: A detailed land use plan will be prepared, based upon review of
the preferred alternative concept plan prepared in previous phases.
Elements of this plan include:
Delineation of boundaries and calculation of acreage.
Assignment of specific land uses, intensities, and other site charac-
teristics.
Statistical analysis which tabulates and summarizes land uses,
acreages, and square footages.
In addition to identified goals, policies and objectives, the land use ele-
ment will include the following special items:
Identify areas subject to specific plan approval plus list in general
terms land uses permitted within.
Identify residential, commercial, and industrial reserve areas in
outlying areas.
Studies of the existing or future population density patterns within
the city. Emphasis must be placed on those areas either designated
for potential redevelopment or high -growth area or within the city's
sphere of influence.

�f 3
PRODUCT: A draft land use element one hundred (100) copies (maximum) with
proposed system improvements and classifications will be prepared for
review by city staff and the public. Legal review of the documents will
certify that they meet state law. Following public review, one hundred
(100) copies (maximum) of a final land use element will be prepared for
city adoption.
TASK 2: PREPARE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
OBJECTIVE: To prepare an environmental impact report in compliance with
state law. Environmental factors are taken into consideration when review-
ing alternatives and determining land use and density designations, result-
ing in the incorporation of environmental information throughout the docu-
ment. The EIR will contain measures adequate for the mitigation of
adverse impacts, and will provide the legal basis for consideration and
action upon the general plan.
METHOD: EIR preparation for a general plan must reflect a broad policy or
issue orientation (CEQA Guidelines Section 15146). Further, this EIR can
best be utilized when it is closely integrated with the general plan
itself.
An initial study for the Moorpark General Plan land use and circulation
element updates will first be prepared. The consultant team will assist
city staff in the preparation and distribution of the Notice of Prepara-
tion for the general plan.
Following collection of pertinent data and the preparation of necessary
technological studies, a screencheck EIR for the Moorpark General Plan
land use and circulation element updates will be prepared which describes
those general plan elements, documents the existing environmental setting,
documents environmental impacts and recommends mitigation measures. The
following subjects will be addressed:

Subject: Moorpark General Plan Update
Dear Pat,
We are pleased that we are nearing resolution of the scope of work and budget
for the General Plan Update. As we discussed, the elimination of a portion of
the original General Plan Amendment applications from consideration in this
update will represent a reduction in the anticipated level of effort necessary
to complete the project by PBR.
The attached letter from Austin -Foust indicates a cost savings only if the
number of land use alternatives to be prepared and analyzed is reduced Austin
Foust's actual cost for running each land use alternative are not reduced
even though some land use assumptions are common to each alternative.
However, my understanding is that your desire is that we continue to assume
that three land use alternatives will be appropriate.
PBR costs may be reduced to reflect the reduction of GPA requests. The
budgets for "Phase III Develop/Select Alternative Concept Plans" and "Phase IV
- Develop Comprehensive General Plan" will be reduced by $3500 as shown on the
attached revised budget schedule.
This reduction assumes that properties involved in those GPA requests which
were not formalized in the "northwest quadrant" of the City will maintain
their present General Plan designations for each land use alternative and the
final land use plan addressed in this General Plan update. In addition recom-
mendations for arterial road improvements in the City, and in the northwest
quadrant in particular, will reflect a buildout condition which assumes that
those properties referenced above will retain their current land use designa-
tion.
If these assumptions are not correct or if you have any questions please call
me at your convenience. This letter and attached budget revisions are in-
tended as an amendment to our proposal. Again we look forward to working with
you on this project.
Sincerely, RECEIVE O
