Agenda Report
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Benjamin Siegel, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Joel Rojas, Development Services Director
PREPARED BY: Paul Garcia, AICP, Associate Planner
DATE: February 15, 2022
SUBJECT: Second Amendment to Professional Services Agreement with
Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers, for the Preparation of a
Traffic Impact Analysis for the Proposed In-N-Out Burger Restaurant
with Drive-Through Located at 31791 Del Obispo Street (Assessor
Parcel Numbers 124-160-60 & 668-242-12) (Property Owner:
Stroscher Investments LLC) (Applicant: Cassie Ruiz, In-N-Out
Burgers, Inc.)
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Second Amendment to the
Professional Services Agreement with Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers, for the
Preparation of a Traffic Impact Analysis, at a cost not-to-exceed $107,520, to be funded
by the Applicant.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
In December 2020, formal applications were submitted by the Applicant for a proposed
3,879 sq. ft. In-N-Out Burger restaurant with drive-through. Staff reviewed the submitted
applications and confirmed that the preparation of a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) of the
proposed project would be necessary to analyze the project’s impact on traffic, site
access and internal circulation, and the adequacy of the drive-through queuing lane and
parking. Staff solicited and received a proposal from Linscott, Law & Greenspan,
Engineers (LLG) for preparation of the TIA.
The City and LLG entered into a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) on March 15,
2021 (Attachment 1) for preparation of the TIA with a not-to-exceed cost of $39,520.
Subsequently, on July 26, 2021, a first amendment to the PSA was approved by the City
Manager for additional tasks which increased the not-to-exceed cost to $44,020
2/15/2022

(Attachment 2). The City Manager approved the first amendment as the total
compensation amount was within the City Manager’s approval authority. A second
amendment is required for additional scope of work tasks that were requested by the City,
authorized by the Applicant and performed by LLG. The second amendment (Attachment
3) increases the total not-to-exceed contract cost to $107,520. City Council approval is
required as the total project contract amount now exceeds the City Manager’s approval
authority.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact to the City associated with the recommended action. The cost
of the TIA is solely funded by the project Applicant, which has deposited the entire
contract amount.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
In accordance with CEQA, the recommended action is exempt from CEQA per Section
15061(b)(3), the general rule that the CEQA applies only to projects which have the
potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant
effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Approving PSA
Amendment No. 2 with LLG would not be an activity with potential to cause significant
effect on the environment, and therefore is exempt from CEQA.
PRIOR CITY COUNCIL REVIEW:
• On February 8, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 22-02-08-01, approving
Architectural Control (AC) 20-012, Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 20-003,
Discretionary Use Permit (DUP) 20-001, Grading Plan Modification (GPM) 21-002,
Sign Program (SP) 20-024, and Tree Removal Permit (TRP) 20-021 for a new In-
N-Out Burger Restaurant with Drive-Through, as conditioned.
• On October 20, 2020, the City Council conducted a preliminary development
review of the proposed project, at which time the Applicant provided materials to
allow for preliminary discussion of the development proposal prior to submitting a
formal application.
COMMISSION/COMMITTEE/BOARD REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS:

Subject:Revised Proposal to Provide a Focused Traffic Impact Analysis,
Parking Demand Analysis and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)
Analysis Associated An In-N-Out Restaurant with Drive-Through
San Juan Capistrano, Orange County, California
Dear Mr. Garcia:
As requested, Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers (LLG) is pleased to submit this
revised proposal to provide traffic engineering & planning consulting services associated
with the proposed In-N-Out Restaurant with Drive-Through project (hereinafter referred
as “Project”) located in San Juan Capistrano, Orange County, California. Pursuant to our
coordination efforts and review of the Scope of Work provided by the City dated
February 17, 2021, we understand that the preparation of a Focused Traffic Impact
Analysis, Parking Analysis and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis are required as
part of the entitlement process for the proposed Project and the VMT analysis will be
included in the environmental document to be prepared for the Project.
The proposed Project site is generally located at the south of Ortega Highway and west
of Del Obispo Street and addressed as 31791 Del Obispo Street within the City’s
historic downtown. The Project site is approximately 1.797 acres and is currently
developed with an 11,292 square-foot (SF) restaurant occupied by Marie Callendar’s.
Bakery and Restaurant and a surface parking lot with 108 spaces. Access to the subject
property is now provided via a full access driveway on Del Obispo Street, where left-
turn ingress/egress is supported via an existing two-way left-turn lane.

Based on the Project description, the Project involves developing the property with a
3,879 SF fast-food restaurant with drive-through with 68 parking spaces as a part of
Phase I of the site development. Phase II, which has not been defined as this time,
include a commercial user on the north end of the site with up to 12 parking spaces.
Access to the Project is expected to be continued to be provided via the site’s existing
full access driveway on Del Obispo Street.
This Focused Traffic Impact Analysis, Parking Analysis and Vehicle Miles Traveled
(VMT) analysis for the proposed Project will be prepared pursuant to the City of San
Juan Capistrano Administrative Policy 310, Preparation and Use of Traffic Reports and
City’s Municipal Code Section 9-3.512(d)1, and in consideration of the City’s parking
requirements, as well as the City’s VMT guidelines. For the purposes of this proposal,
the Focused Traffic Impact Analysis will focus on the Project’s traffic impacts at eight
(8) intersections inclusive of the Project Driveway, five (5) roadway segments and
Synchro Operational Analysis for one (1) roadway segment consisting of up to four (4)
intersections for the study area. With concurrence by City staff, historical traffic count
data will be used as the basis for establishing existing Year 2021 baseline conditions at
key study intersections, and supplemented with collection of driveway counts at
McDonalds, Carl’s Jr’s, and Chick-Fil-A during the afternoon and evening peak hours
(time periods to be determined).
The proposed Project’s Focused Traffic Impact Analysis, Parking Analysis and Vehicle
Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis will satisfy the requirements of the City of San Juan
Capistrano. Given the above, and our overall sense and understanding of the issues, we
propose to do the following:
FOCUSED TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS AND PARKING ANALYSIS
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1: Project Mobilization
1.1 Confirm the development description with the Client, work schedule, and
assumptions to be utilized in the traffic study and the VMT assessment,
presuming a qualitive analysis would be prepared due to project location in
downtown San Juan Capistrano. Discuss assumptions to be used associated
with the Project (Phase I) completion year and potential uses for Phase II of the
Project and confirm existing development totals of Marie Callendar’s (i.e. size
and number of seats). Obtain a current Project site plan that illustrates the
access scheme to the Project site in both hard copy and digital formats.

1.2 Coordinate with City staff to discuss the Project and analysis criteria, confirm
the study approach and identify pertinent traffic issues and concerns, inclusive
of work task associated with gap analysis of Del Obispo Street between
Ortega Highway and Plaza Drive.
1.3 In conjunction with Task 1.2, prepare a Traffic Impact Analysis Report Scope
of Work Agreement detailing the study area, assumptions and overall traffic
study requirements, VMT analysis and submit it to City Staff for review.
1.4 Based on comments and direction received from City Staff on scope of work
agreement, finalize the scope of work agreement and resubmit it to City Staff
for approval.
Task 2: Data Collection and Research
2.1 Visit the Project study area to confirm existing conditions with respect to
existing site development, local area development, site access, parking use, and
areas of congestion in order to verify our overall understanding of traffic
conditions in the area that might affect this Project.
2.2 In conjunction with Task 2.1, document the existing roadway striping, traffic
control measures, curbside parking restrictions, adjacent intersection
configurations, and other pertinent roadway features.
2.3 Obtain existing street improvement plans/striping plans for key roadways in
the immediate vicinity of the Project site. Compile information with regards to
planned street improvements in the Project study area.
2.4 Research data and recent traffic impact studies prepared for developments in
the Project vicinity regarding the status of other proposed developments
(cumulative projects) in the area that may contribute cumulative impacts to
the adjacent street system and study locations in the vicinity of the proposed
Project. The compiled list of related projects will be forwarded for review and
approval by City Staff.
2.5 Research existing historical traffic count data at up to eight (8) key study
intersections located within the vicinity of the proposed Project. Based on
current conditions, due to COVID-19, the ability to collect traffic counts to
establish baseline conditions is not possible. As such, to establish existing

“baseline” traffic conditions, pre-COVID-19, LLG had previously coordinated
with the City and researched historical data and was able to obtain Year 2018
counts at five (5) of the eight potential study locations1 listed below, and Year
2016 counts at also five (5) potential study intersections1. Given the
availability of historical data, LLG proposes establish pre-COVID-19 2021
traffic conditions by factoring the historical data by 0.5% per year per the
direction of the City.
Key Study Intersections
Historical Year 2018
Counts Available?
Historical Year 2016
Counts Available?
1.I-5 NB Ramps at Ortega Highway Yes Yes
2.I-5 SB Ramps at Ortega Highway Yes Yes
3.Del Obispo Street at Ortega Highway Yes Yes
4.Del Obispo Street at Camino Capistrano Yes Yes
5.El Camino Real at Ortega Highway No Yes
6.Del Obispo Street at Plaza Drive No No
7.Del Obispo Street at Project Driveway No No
8.Camino Capistrano at Ortega Highway Yes No
Subject to confirmation by City staff, the traffic analysis shall use recent (last 5
years) of traffic counts escalated to Year 2021 and supplemented with additional
traffic counts to establish a potential group factor for the locations where traffic
counts may not be available.
2.6 Research existing historical traffic count data at up to five (5) key study
roadways segments located within the vicinity of the proposed Project. Based on
information provided by the City, 2018 daily traffic counts are available for the
following five (5) study roadway segments. For comparison purposes, per te
request of the City, LLG will conduct 24-hour daily counts to document
existing 2021 traffic volumes.
Using the above information, LLG proposes to establish pre-COVID-19 2021
traffic conditions by factoring the historical data by 0.5% per year per the
direction of the City.
1 Year 2018 historical counts are referenced from the Tirdor Residential Development Project Traffic Impact analysis,
prepared by LSA in February 2020, whereas Year 2016 historical counts are from the Traffic Impact Analysis
Addendum for Kimpton Hotel Capistrano,prepared by LLG dated July 2016.

5.Ortega Hwy between Del Obispo and Camino Capistrano
Task 3: Trip Generation, Distribution and Assignment
3.1 Determine and present in tabular and/or graphic form a trip generation forecast
for the proposed Project (Phase I), inclusive of Phase II development on a daily
and peak hour basis. The forecasts will be based on the trip generation rates
found in Trip Generation, 10th Edition, published by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) [2017]. Appropriate adjustments to the trip
generation potential of the Project to account for the existing land uses
(assuming fully functional restaurant), internal capture and/or pass-by traffic will
be made, if applicable.
3.2 Determine the overall Project trip distribution pattern. The distribution patterns
will be submitted for review and approval by City Staff prior to finalization and
will be used to formalize the study area.
3.3 Develop estimated trip generation projections for each of the cumulative projects
within the Project vicinity.
3.4 Assign the forecasted Daily, AM and PM peak hour trips expected to be
generated by the proposed Project to the study intersections and roadway
segments based on existing and anticipated traffic patterns to and from the
Project site, as well as the City traffic model select zone model runs for the
Project.
3.5 Distribute and assign cumulative projects traffic.
3.6 Forecast traffic volumes for the scenarios listed in Task 5.1 & 5.5 for the
proposed Project traffic and cumulative projects in the study area.
Task 4: Formulation of Future Traffic Volumes
4.1 Prepare City approved computer traffic model runs for baseline conditions and
buildout conditions for the Daily, AM and PM peak periods.
4.2 Project future traffic volumes using the following methodology:
Paul Garcia

P:\2021\P2210052 - In N Out Burger San Juan Capistrano\P2100052 - In N Out Burger, San Juan Capistrano TIA-Parking-VMT Proposal 02-26-21.doc
a.Peak period traffic volumes will be converted to peak hour (i.e., one-hour)
traffic volumes using a conversion factor of 0.38 for the AM peak hour and
0.28 for the PM peak hour;
b.Determine the projected rate of growth; and
c.Based on this determination, the growth rate will be applied to the existing
Daily, AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes in order to formulate the
interim phases and long-term buildout pre-Project traffic volumes, with
cumulative project traffic may be added as well.
4.3 Buildout traffic volume forecasts will also be determined through utilization of
the OCTAM 5.0 output via the following methodology:
a.Calculate the difference between the baseline and the Year 2045 buildout
peak period traffic volumes and convert to AM and PM peak hour (i.e., one-
hour) link traffic volumes;
b.Link traffic volumes (i.e., two-way directional traffic volumes on each
roadway segment) will be post-processed using the City approved “b-turns”
program and the relationship of the base year validation model run output to
the base year "ground" traffic counts.
Task 5: Project Evaluation and Mitigation Measure Analysis
5.1 Prepare weekday AM and PM peak hour Level of Service (LOS) calculations
at up to eight (8) key intersections, inclusive of the Project driveway, for the
following traffic conditions. The LOS calculations for key signalized
intersections within the City of San Juan Capistrano will be calculated using
the Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) method and the Highway Capacity
Manual (HCM) method based on the City's minimum "D" level-of-service per
the General Plan Growth Management Element. The Traffic Impact Analysis
Scenarios are listed below:
1.Existing Traffic Conditions,
2.Existing Plus Project Traffic Conditions,
3.Scenario (2) With Improvements; if necessary,
4.Existing Plus Project Plus Cumulative Traffic Conditions,
5.Scenario (4) With Improvements; if necessary,
6.Existing Plus Project Plus Buildout Traffic Conditions,
7.Scenario (6) With Improvements; if necessary.

P:\2021\P2210052 - In N Out Burger San Juan Capistrano\P2100052 - In N Out Burger, San Juan Capistrano TIA-Parking-VMT Proposal 02-26-21.doc
Traffic signal cycle lengths and PHF used in any calculations shall be verified
prior to intersection calculations being performed.
5.2 Assess the impact of the Project based on the results of the peak hour
intersection analyses, the City’s LOS standards and application of the City’s
significance criteria. Based on this assessment, determine which intersections (if
any) will require improvements to mitigate potential traffic impacts associated
with the proposed Project to less than significant levels.
5.3 Provide recommended mitigation measures which may include intersection
and/or signalization improvements, striping modifications, the addition of
auxiliary turn lanes, traffic control/limitations at site access points, etc. Please
note that this proposal assumes the recommended mitigation measures can be
adequately described within the text of the report. Should the City request
preparation of plans to further demonstrate the feasibility of the mitigation
measures, an amendment to our contract will be necessary.
5.4 Calculate the net traffic increment (fair-share percentage) due to the Project at
the impacted intersections. Based on the required mitigation measures,
estimate the Project’s fair-share percentage towards the cost of the proposed
mitigation improvements.
5.5 Evaluate the weekday daily traffic impacts of the Project at up to five (5) key
study roadway segments based on the City's minimum "C" level-of-service per
the General Plan Growth Management Element. Midblock link capacity analyses
will be prepared for the following Traffic Impact Analysis Scenarios:
1.Existing Traffic Conditions,
2.Existing Plus Project Traffic Conditions,
3.Scenario (2) With Improvements; if necessary,
4.Existing Plus Project Plus Cumulative Traffic Conditions,
5.Scenario (4) With Improvements; if necessary,
6.Existing Plus Project Plus Buildout Traffic Conditions,
7.Scenario (6) With Improvements; if necessary.
It is noted that in support of AQ-GHG and Noise analyses, LLG will provide
future cumulative and buildout daily traffic volume conditions without and
with the Project.

P:\2021\P2210052 - In N Out Burger San Juan Capistrano\P2100052 - In N Out Burger, San Juan Capistrano TIA-Parking-VMT Proposal 02-26-21.doc
Evaluate potential weekday daily Project traffic impacts based on the City's
minimum "C" link level-of-service per the General Plan Growth Management
Element.
If the increment in weekday daily traffic is significant, then evaluate the study
link on a weekday AM and PM peak hour to determine if Project-related traffic
will have a significant impact on a roadway segment’s peak hour LOS.
Finally, if the increment in weekday peak hour traffic is significant, then
evaluate the study link on a weekday AM and PM peak hour basis using the
HCM method to determine if Project-related traffic will have a significant
impact on a roadway segment’s weekday peak hour LOS.
Task 6: Synchro Analysis
6.1 Using the Synchro Traffic Signal Coordination Software conduct an operational
analysis of one (1) key roadway segment (Del Obispo Street) which includes up
to six (6) signalized intersections in the City to determine the potential impact of
Project-related traffic.
Task 7: Parking Review and Site Access Evaluation, Alternative Site Plan
7.1 Prepare Level of Service (LOS) calculations at the Project driveway for the
scenarios listed below, inclusive of an afternoon peak hour assessment. The LOS
calculations will be based on City-approved capacity analysis methodologies
(i.e., Highway Capacity Manual method). The analysis scenarios are:
1.Existing With Project Traffic Conditions,
2.Near-Term With Project Traffic Conditions, and
3.Long -Term With Project Traffic Conditions
7.2 Evaluate and comment on the proposed access and internal circulation scheme
of the proposed Project, with a focus to on-site circulation layout and design,
vehicle stacking at site driveway(s), sight distance, ingress and egress safety
opportunities and constraints, adequate sight distances at Project driveway(s),
and pedestrian circulation. Evaluate on-site circulation with regard to truck
turning movements and passenger car conflicts, service/delivery access and
circulation layout, and internal intersection controls. Provide circulation
recommendations where necessary.

7.3 Evaluate location of the proposed Project Driveway, including the effectiveness
of a single ingress/egress, driveway width, and possibility of restricting traffic
exiting In-N-Out to “right-turns only” onto Del Obispo Street.
7.4 Evaluate/Analyze the potential for a dedicated left turn lane and a dedicated
right-turn on Del Obispo at the project driveway. The left turn analysis will
include the potential impact to existing turn movements at the other existing
driveways on Del Obispo Street, particularly McDonalds (two driveways),
Carl’s Jr’s (two driveway), and Chick-Fil-A (two driveways).
In support of this analysis existing turning driveway counts at McDonalds,
Carl’s Jr’s, and Chick-Fil-A, as well as the existing site driveway will be
conducted during the weekday afternoon (11:30 AM – 1:30 PM) and evening
peak period (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM).
