Please be advised that the above-referenced property is located within the
boundaries of Rancho California Water District (RCWD). Water service,
therefore, would be available upon completion of financial arrangements between
RCWD and the property owner.
If fire protection is required, the customer will need to contact RCWD for fees and
requirements.
Water availability would be contingent upon the property owner signing an
Agency Agreement that assigns water management rights, if any, to RCWD.
In our previous correspondence to Debbie Ubnoske dated December 5, 2000,
RCWD requested that the developer consider the use of recycled water for the
proposed pond to be located in this development and for any other appropriate
uses. We request that the developer discuss these requirements with RCWD staff.
If you should have any questions, please contact an Engineering Services
Representative at this office.

attempts have bccn made to design thc project in a transit-friendly rammer, including thc
open-ended clustenng ofresldential un'ts. The mixed.uses in the Village Green Center
arc also conducive to transit usage..
Wc hope to jointly dcsigna pilot program to cncouragc transit usage and thc usc of other
alternatives to tile single occupancy vehicle. Il would be beneficial for the community to
provide transit access to adjacent arc, as, such as thc Promenade Mall, middle and high
