Amendments to the Bethel-Danebo Plan require that the Royal Avenue Specific Plan serve as the basis for development regulations and infrastructure improvements within the Royal Avenue Specific Plan area. The specific plan proposes the use of roadside drainage swal~es, median bioswales and other stormwater runoff retention and filtration techniques to delay peak storm flows and provide ~fYr settling of sediments. (g) ~Reduce street-related water quality and quantity problems" Reduction of street paving widths, and allowances for roadside drainage swales and inverted curbs are among those street design elements that should result in reduced street-related water quality and quantity problems. 50.

The need to use an automobile for all trips will be reduced due to the proximity of services to Royal node residential areas, and the availability of facilities that promote alternative mode use. Increased use of alternative modes should result in reductions in adverse air quality impacts from automobile use. 53. Policy 7 (Energy Element Page Ill-J-5) ~ Encourage medium- and high-density residential uses when balanced with other planning policies in order to maximize the efficient utilization Exhibit D - 19
