The High School at Wildcreek Due Diligence Report

INTRODUCTION
This document has been provided to summarize the findings of the scope of services provided by Wood
Rodgers, Traffic Works, Johnson Perkins Griffin, and other professional subject matter experts, as
commissioned by the Washoe County School District to investigate the viability of development of a high
school campus on the existing Wildcreek Golf Course parcel. Included below is a summary of the findings
for each due diligence topic, including drainage, environmental constraints, utilities, soils, flight path,
traffic, and site plan alternatives. For each of the aforementioned categories, a detailed report and
background information has been provided in the Appendix.

Background
The existing Wildcreek property consists of 330.7± acres owned by Washoe County, operated by the Reno-
Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority (RSCVA), and is within the City of Sparks. North McCarran
Boulevard borders the site to the south, Sullivan Lane borders the site on the west, with single family
residential bordering the site on the east. The site is currently developed with the Wildcreek Golf Course
(See Appendix A - Vicinity Map).

The Wildcreek property consists of 2 separate parcels. (See Appendix A - Assessor’s Parcel Maps). The
parcels are summarized as follows:

• APN 027-011-05: 212.2± acres located in the City of Sparks currently zoned Public Facility. The
High School Campus would only utilize this parcel for the proposed development.

• APN 035-080-04: 118.5± acres located in the City of Sparks currently zoned Public Facility. This
Parcel is proposed to remain undeveloped and would not be utilized for the High School Campus.

For the purposes of this report, the due diligence analysis concentrates on APN 027-011-05 as the primary
development parcel under consideration by the Washoe County School District, herein after referred to
as “subject parcel” or “subject property”.

Surrounding Uses
Surrounding uses include:
• North: Undeveloped land with some steeper terrain, flood constraints and Washoe County Park and
Open Space property;

• South: North McCarran Boulevard, a Major Arterial and NDOT right of way, borders the site with
nonresidential and multi-family residential uses beyond to the south. Wedekind Road, a Collector
Roadway also borders the site. Non-residential uses including a church are located between
Wedekind Road and North McCarran Boulevard. There are also two single family residences adjacent
to the golf course on the north side of Wedekind Road.

[1]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

• East: Steeper terrain, single family residences on large lots in Washoe County and Washoe County
Park and Open Space property used for portions of the Golf Course (portions of Holes 7, 12, 14 and
15);

• West: Sullivan Lane, a Collector Roadway, borders the property on the west. Offices and single-family
residences are located to the west beyond Sullivan Lane.

Master Plan and Zoning


The subject property is identified in the recently updated City of Sparks Master Plan with a designation as
“Community Facilities” (CF) (Refer to Existing Master Plan and Zoning exhibits provided in Appendix A).
The CF master plan designation identifies primary uses that are appropriate in these areas include “public
schools” as an appropriate use. Further, the CF master plan designation identifies that the appropriate
conforming zoning designation should be Public Facility (PF).

The subject property is zoned Public Facility (PF). Upon review of the Sparks Municipal Code (SMC)
Chapter 20 Zoning Code, the land use type “Schools (public or private)” is a permitted use with the
approval of an Administrative Review. Additional use regulations apply to the development of a school
and are outlined in SMC 20.03.038. Excerpts of the Sparks Zoning Code are provided in the Appendix B of
this document.

Additionally, Wood Rodgers reviewed the subject property and proposed high school development in the
context of the Truckee Meadows Regional Plan (TMRP). The TMRP identifies the subject property within
the City of Sparks Truckee Meadows Service Area (TMSA). The TMSA are areas within the Truckee
Meadows that are intended to receive municipal level services and infrastructure, including schools. The
site is not identified as having Development Constraint Areas, other than the presence of potential
drainage courses, which are discussed below and in the Preliminary Drainage Study included with this
report.

The proposal of a school at this location complies with the applicable Goals and Policies of the TMRP.
Specifically, for future consideration of a school at this location, the following findings indicate that the
TMRP supports the development of a high school at this location:

1. The subject parcel is master planned “Community Facilities” in the City of Sparks Master Plan. The
City of Sparks Master Plan was found to be in conformance with the Truckee Meadows Regional
Plan.
2. It is not anticipated that the development of a high school at this location will trigger review by
the Truckee Meadows Regional Planning Agency (TMRPA) for a Project of Regional Significance
(PRS). Based upon review of the criteria for Projects of Regional Significance, the project does not
exceed the thresholds identified for a PRS and therefore would not be subject to review by
TMRPA. This understanding has been affirmed by TMRPA staff via written correspondence from

[2]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Lauren Knox, Regional Planner, TMRPA dated November 7, 2017. (Please note, depending on the
development plan for the property, TMRPA has oversight of the relocation of either of the two
NV Energy electric transmission lines, should they be proposed to be moved with the
development of the site. Under TMRPA’s review process, only the relocation of the utility lines
would be reviewed.)

Preliminary Title Review


Wood Rodgers has reviewed and plotted easements listed within the Preliminary Title Report provided by
Ticor Title Company, Dated June 7, 2017 as Order No. 01702907-TO (refer to Preliminary Title Report in
Appendix C; Constraints Map in Map Pocket of this report).

The major constraints based upon the easements would be the 120 kV line overhead electrical
transmission line on the North side of the property that runs in an east/west direction within a 125 foot
wide easement Doc. No. 177117; the Orr Ditch which is reserved in patents (no easement width defined);
and the 10 foot sanitary sewer easement per Doc. No. 508672 that runs East from just South of the existing
clubhouse then goes South towards the intersection of Wedekind Road and McCarran Boulevard, as well
as the 20 foot sanitary sewer easement per Doc. No. 1966931 that also runs East from just South of the
clubhouse to the buildings. The sanitary sewer easement and associated underground sewer utility may
be relocated, depending on the ultimate site design and potential sewer work necessary to serve the
proposed high school. Additionally, overhead power and sanitary sewer easements along the frontage of
Sullivan Lane present a constraint along the roadway frontage that will effectively increase the necessary
setback from the roadway.

In addition to the survey mapping of plottable title exceptions, Doug Flowers, Attorney with Holland and
Hart provided a title review and summary for the above referenced Preliminary Title Report. Mr. Flowers
summarized the verbiage of several title exceptions. Of note, exception 38 of the title report, which
addresses a small unimproved area of land for the installation and maintenance of public utilities. In his
opinion, Mr. Flowers identified that this particular exception, while not of great concern, may present a
cloud on title and recommended that the title company remove it. Additionally, Mr. Flowers reviewed
the vesting deed for the original sale of the property and determined that the deed did not contain any
covenants, restrictions or other limitations that would dictate any future development or sale of the
property.

Geotechnical Investigation
The project was explored on June 30, 2017 and July 26, 2017 by performing a limited refraction
microtremor geophysical survey (ReMi) and advancing two bore holes using a CME 55 rubber tire
mounted drill rig, respectively. The maximum depth of the bore holes was 25-feet below the existing
ground surface. The full geotechnical analysis along with supporting data is represented under separate
cover and provided in Appendix D of this summary report.

[3]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Based on our exploration and analyses, the site is suitable for the proposed development. Once soils have
been adequately prepared, standard spread foundations should perform well for the development. If it is
desired to limit grading, structural slab foundations or pier and grade beam foundations may be
considered.

Site Preparation and Grading


Due to the underlying hydrothermally altered andesite, the presence of near surface clay, and medium to
highly plastic clayey sand and sandy lean clay soils, over-excavation and replacement with structural fill,
or raising grade to accommodate a structural fill separation layer or similar mitigation measures will be
required to achieve adequate foundation support. We anticipate 2 to 4-feet of structural fill separation
may be required beneath foundation grade for standard spread foundations. This separation layer may
be reduced to approximately 1 to 2-feet below interior slabs-on-grade, roadways, and site work.

Layering within the native soils is likely too erratic to allow the native soils to be used as a structural fill
source. Clay soils may be used as fill in non-structural areas, however, special placement protocols (such
as moisture conditioning and compaction) will be need to be developed to mitigate their associated
expansion potential.

Additional Exploration
Due to the potential need for imported structural fill for the proposed development, additional
exploration may be performed on the northern and eastern portions of the property in order to develop
a rockfill borrow pit. During the design phase of this project, a design level geotechnical report compliant
with the latest adopted version of the International Building Code (IBC) will require additional
investigation and analyses once a more final site layout and grading plan has been completed.

Waters of the United States Inventory


On behalf of Washoe County School District, a routine on-site wetland delineation was conducted in
August 2017 by Wood Rodgers, Inc. to assess the location and extent of Waters of the United States
(WOUS), including wetlands that may be present within the project area to determine the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers (USACE) jurisdiction under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) 33 U.S.C. §1251 et seq.
(1972).

Prior to the field investigation, in July 2017, Wood Rodgers utilized an unmanned aerial system (UAS)
equipped with a multispectral camera to capture color and infrared (color IR) photography that was used
to focus the Routine On-Site Investigation. Using multispectral data prior to completing the field
investigation allowed our Wetlands Specialist to use vegetation reflectance signatures to determine
where field data was collected based on signatures for open water, saturated soils and hydrophytic
vegetation. In addition, topographic map tools were reviewed for indications of open water, springs, and
ephemeral, intermittent and perennial drainages. In addition, Wood Rodgers met with the golf course
staff to investigate how and where the course is irrigated with fresh water and treated effluent.

Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Findings:
Our findings are contained in the September 2017 Wildcreek Golf Course Wetland Delineation and Water
of the U.S. Inventory provided in Appendix E. The 2017 field survey identified potential waters of the
United States that included the Orr Ditch. Additional Features included irrigation storage ponds
constructed in upland as part of an original stock water pond (F5) and golf course irrigation storage and
amenities (F3, F4 and F6). Other linear Features included the Sun Valley Wash (F2), 1,051 LF, and open
channel irrigation conveyance constructed in upland (F1), 500 LF. Potential jurisdictional resources are
summarized in the table below and limited to the existing Orr Ditch. The findings of this investigation will
require verification by the USACE, once the final design is better known and potential impacts can be
assessed.

Table 3. Summary of Potential Jurisdictional Resources


LF of WOUS NOT Contained in Irrigation
Potential Jurisdictional Resources Acres
a Wetland Induced
Orr Ditch 8,340 Yes

Please Note: The Waters of US Inventory has been submitted to the Corps with a request for a Formal
Jurisdictional Determination. The USACE regulations do not provide for a time frame in which the USACE
must respond to a formal request for a USACE verification of jurisdiction. Therefore, Wood Rodgers
recommends that the Inventory of Waters of the Unites States, Including Wetlands Report be submitted
with a permit application. Receipt of a permit application by the USACE invokes a codified time frame for
response of 30 days.

In addition, Wood Rodgers requested guidance and clarification of the application of Regulatory Guidance
Letter 07-02 Exemptions for Construction and Maintenance of Irrigation Ditches and Maintenance of
Drainage Ditches Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. On October 20, 2017 via personal
communication, Kristine Ceragioli, Senior Project Manager USACE stated that under Section 404(f)(1)(C)
of the CWA, 33 CFR 323.4(a)(3) and 40 CFR 232.3(c)(3), “construction” that is defined as “new work or
work that results in an extension or expansion of an existing structure (including ditch relocation,
conversion into pipe, lining, and placement of new control structures) is exempt under the preceding Act
and regulations if “the discharge is not part of an activity that would convert an area of waters of the US
(including wetlands) into a use to which it was not previously subject and/or the activity will not impair
the flow or circulation of waters of the US or reduce the reach of such waters. Therefore, potential piping
of the Orr Ditch for future development of the subject property appears at present to be exempt as
described above based on our current knowledge of development plans.

To document this exemption under Section 404(f)(1)(C) of the CWA, 33 CFR 323.4(a)(3) and 40 CFR
232.3(c)(3), “construction”, the project owner is required to submit a letter to the Corps informing them
of the proposed activity and documenting the conditions under which the exemption applies. The Corps
will reply within 30 days with confirmation or denial of the requested exemption.

Sensitive Wildlife and Plant Species


Wood Rodgers completed a US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) database query (IPaC Information for
Planning and Consultation online tool) to determine if there is potential for any federally protected species
to occur within the Wildcreek Golf Course. In addition, we have obtained a formal species list from the
USFWS for the project area. We have submitted a data request to the Nevada Natural Heritage Program
to determine if there is potential for rare or at-risk species to occur within the project area, and we have
reviewed the Nevada Department of Wildlife GIS Data Clearinghouse to determine what if any game
species may occur within the project area. The results of these queries are presented in Appendix E and
summarized below.

US Fish and Wildlife Service


The database query of the USFWS IPac revealed that, while there are 4 threatened, endangered, or
candidate (sensitive) species that have potential to occur within the project area, none are anticipated to
be impacted due to development of the property. These species include:

Endangered Cui-ui (Chasmistes cujus) - Although the USFWS Cui-ui Recovery Plan (1992) states the
essential habitat has been determined to be the Truckee River from Hunter Creek to Pyramid Lake, Cui-ui
have not been known to pass the Derby Dam since its construction in 1905. Derby Dam is approximately
31 river miles upstream of the project area and approximately 20 river miles downstream of Reno. Given
this and the location of the project site not adjacent to the Truckee River, the proposed project will have
no effect, positive or negative, to the Cui-ui or its essential habitat.

Threatened Lahontan Cutthroat Trout (LCT) (Oncorhynchus clarkii henshawi) -Six river basins, several
lakes and streams have been designated as recovery waters for the LCT; focusing on the Orr Ditch – the
Truckee River Operating Agreement (TROA), (USBOR Final Rule 12/05/2008) (Federal Register Vol. 73, No.
235 74031 – 74039) in compliance with the Truckee-Carson- Pyramid Lake Water Rights Settlement Act
“Provide for the enhancement of spawning flows available in the Lower Truckee River for the Pyramid
Lake fishery (endangered cui-ui and threatened Lahontan cutthroat trout [LCT]) in a manner consistent
with the Secretary’s responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act, as amended (ESA). Therefore, it
is reasonable that any project that concerns flows in the Orr Ditch must maintain flows through the ditch
in order to be in compliance with the TROA, Truckee-Carson- Pyramid Lake Water Rights Settlement Act,
and the ESA. If flows are maintained in the Orr Ditch during project development, a project is not likely
to adversely affect LCT.

North American wolverine (Gulo luscus) - Although wolverines historically occurred in the Sierra Nevada,
this species is not known to occur in the Truckee Meadow. As such, no potential impact is anticipated due
to the development of the project.

Webber’s ivesia (Ivesia webberi) - Webber’s ivesia is a member of the rose family and was listed as
threatened June 3, 2014 (Federal Register Vol., 79, No. 106 31878). Webber’s ivesia is a low-growing,

[6]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

perennial forb with clusters of leaves that lie nearly flat on the ground, and are approximately ten inches
in diameter. Webber’s ivesia is restricted to sites with sparse vegetation and shallow, rocky, clay soils on
mid elevation flats, benches or terraces between 4,475 and 6,237 feet elevation in Washoe and Douglas
Counties in Nevada, and in Lassen, Plumas and Sierra Counties, in California. All 17 known populations of
Webber’s ivesia are within the transition zone between the eastern edge of the northern Sierra Nevada
and the northwestern edge of the Great Basin. One of these populations is presumed extirpated. Given
that a majority of the project area historically was irrigated pasture and more recently was graded, and
native soils have been amended or buried to support golf course development, it is highly unlikely that
Webber’s ivesia currently occurs within the project area.

Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) GIS Data Clearinghouse


For game species that have potential to occur within the project area, NDOW GIS maps were reviewed.
Species include desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis californiana), American black bear (Ursus
americanus), California quail (Callipepla californica), greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus),
mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), mountain lion (cougar) (Puma concolor), and pronghorn antelope
(Antilocapra Americana). Given the variety of potential food sources and persistent water supported by
a golf course, these common game species have potential to occur within the project area. All species
with the exception of the California quail are elusive and prefer to hunt and feed in the absence of humans
and not in proximity to urban environments. On the other hand, California quail have become very well
adapted to urban environments for breeding, brooding, rearing and full life cycles.

The area surrounding the Wildcreek site is largely urbanized, with open areas remaining on the northern
hillsides. Given the abundant open space located north of the project site, as well as the potential for
opens space to remain outside of the acreage set aside for a high school, no impacts to the above species
is anticipated.

Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act
The Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 (MBTA), codified at 16 U.S.C. §§ 703–712 provides that it is unlawful
to pursue, hunt, take, capture, kill, possess, sell, purchase, barter, import, export, or transport any
migratory bird, or any part, nest, or egg or any such bird, unless authorized under a permit issued by the
Secretary of the Interior. Compliance with the MBTA and BGEPA is attained by completing pre-
disturbance nesting bird and raptor surveys if disturbance is schedule to occur during the nesting season
(generally January 1 – September 15). The survey area is anywhere that vegetation removal and
disturbance is necessary. When an active nest of a protected species is detected, a “buffer” area will be
designated until the nestlings have fledged. In addition, survey coverage will include a search of suitable
nesting habitats within a buffer zone (generally 100 feet for non-raptors and 1,320 feet for raptors)
directly adjacent to project boundaries.

[7]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Any active nest of a protected species detected within the project footprint or its adjacent buffer will
receive a protective buffer radius around the nest tree and behavior monitoring may be required as per
consultation with the Nevada Department of Wildlife and/or the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

It is important to note that nesting bird and raptor survey results are only valid for a period of 2 weeks (14
days). Therefore, the first survey is completed 2 weeks prior to the start of disturbance and are repeated
every 2 weeks for disturbance that is scheduled to occur during the nesting season.

If disturbance during the nesting season cannot be avoided, carefully planned and timed removal of
nesting habitat can occur prior to the nesting season, thus minimizing the potential for nesting as well as
minimizing the survey area.

The above requirements are not unique for projects in Northern Nevada in areas with existing vegetation.
With appropriate planning and surveying during construction, potential impacts can be avoided and
minimized during construction.

Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment


McGinley and Associates conducted a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (please see Appendix F for
full report). McGinley and Associates conducted the investigation for the purpose of identifying
recognized environmental conditions, historical recognized environmental conditions, and/or controlled
recognized environmental conditions on the property in accordance with 2013 ASTM International
standards practice for the performance of Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments. McGinley and
Associates methodology, findings, and conclusions are provided in the full report provided in Appendix F.

In summary, McGinley and Associates generally found:

• Minimal staining was observed in numerous locations throughout the subject property. The
stains were observed primarily in areas where equipment is stored or where petroleum products
are handled. The stains appeared to be the result of drips and/or minor spills and are considered
to be minor in nature.
• A leaking electrical transformer was observed to the south of the maintenance building on the
subject property. Minimal staining was observed adjacent to the unit. Consultation with NV
Energy confirmed that polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB’s) are not utilized in this transformer or
other transformers on the subject property.
• Numerous storage containers containing a range of petroleum and hazardous materials were
observed on the subject property. At the time of the site visit, the observed containers appeared
to be in good condition with no obvious signs of leaking or sever damage.
• Two 2,000-gallon underground storage tanks (UST’s) and one 1,000-gallon UST previously existed
on the subject property. The UST’s formerly stored gasoline and diesel fuel and were removed in
November 1998. Based upon available regulatory information, it appears that the UST’s did not

[8]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

leak and were ultimately replaced by a 1,000-gallon aboveground storage tank (AST), which is
currently located above the removed UST’s.
• A concentrated area of discarded debris was observed in the northwestern portion of the subject
property. Golf course personnel indicated that this area is utilized for discarding golf course
landscape debris and this was consistent with the observed condition. No evidence of dumping
of petroleum products and/or hazardous materials were observed.
• The golf course maintains a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
groundwater discharge permit associated with the utilization of reclaimed water for irrigation
purposes.
• No historical recognized environmental conditions were found for the subject property.
• No controlled recognized environmental conditions were found for the subject property.
• No recognized environmental conditions were found for the subject property.

McGinley and Associated concluded that based upon their research, observations and the above findings,
they are of the opinion that no additional investigations of the subject property are warranted at this
time.

Preliminary Drainage Study


Wood Rodgers has reviewed the existing drainage conditions including the onsite basin and the upstream
offsite drainage coming onsite from the Sun Valley Dam (NV ID # J-272), which provides detention for the
Sun Valley regional drainage area. Discharge from the dam outlet and/or emergency spillway enter the
project area, combine with the onsite drainage through a series of small channels and overland flow, and
ultimately discharge under McCarran Blvd into the public storm drain network.

The proposed site configuration is undetermined at this stage of project and will need to be analyzed
during final design. For the purpose of this due diligence report, provided drainage discussion should be
considered as high level discussion of potential improvements required as a result of development of the
site. Final design, grading and drainage infrastructure sizing will be fully vetted during the design
development and construction document preparation for the project.

An onsite detention facility or pond will be required to maintain pre-development conditions for the major
(100 year) and minor (5 year) storm events. It is estimated that this can be accommodated with a drainage
pond with six acre-feet of storage.

Peak discharge from the upstream Sun Valley Dam during the major storm (100 year) event will be
required to be conveyed across the site. The preferred option, at this stage, is to convey the major storm
event in an open channel. Based on the estimated 100-year flow (399 cfs), a trapezoidal open channel
with a 20-flat bottom, 4:1 side slopes, minimum longitudinal slope of 0.5%, and a depth of 5’ will
accommodate the 100-year flow and maintain an additional 1’ of freeboard above the 100-year flow
elevation.

[9]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Furthermore, due to the proximity of the site with the Sun Valley Dam, ½ the Probable Maximum Flood
(PMF) was considered. The ½ PMF was utilized for this analysis, as this was the original design
consideration of the Sun Valley Dam. Estimates show, that if a building is located beyond 300’ from the
edge of the proposed channel, the proposed building can be located outside the ½ PMF flow path with
finish floor grading considerations. Local and state code do not require a building to be located outside
the ½ PMF flow path.

In summary, the project site has been preliminarily reviewed for probable limitations to development
resulting from onsite or offsite drainage, including the Sun Valley Dam. We have found that existing and
proposed drainage considerations do not preclude development of the project site into a potential high
school campus. Final site and building design will have to consider these potential impacts to ensure the
final campus solution works in conjunction with the drainage requirements.

Preliminary Sanitary Sewer Study


Wood Rodgers reviewed the Wildcreek Project sewer capacity analysis provided by the City of Sparks. The
proposed high school campus was estimated to produce an average daily flow of 0.0392 MGD. The
provided capacity analysis identified existing downstream capacity deficiencies with in the public sewer
system both with and without the development the proposed development. The provided report
identified several capital improvement projects for City consideration to meet existing and master
planning build out conditions.

The City of Sparks was consulted as an initial coordination item to understand the potential requirements
of any development of this site. Initial thoughts were that some mitigation to sewer flows may become
part of development of the site. Additional coordination with the City of Sparks will be necessary to
further discuss the downstream constraints identified by the City. Downstream mitigation will likely
require collaboration between the City of Sparks and Washoe County School District to determine timing
and scope of downstream improvements necessary to serve the project.

Utilities
Wood Rodgers, in conjunction with the WCSD, submitted discovery applications to NV Energy and Truckee
Meadows Water Authority. During a discovery process, the utility providers evaluate their ability to meet
the demands of the proposed development and identify if any offsite improvements will be required to
meet the project demands. Please note that the costs identified as part of each discovery do not capture
the full construction cost. There will be additional overhead construction costs associated with each
service or offsite improvement which will result in overall cost to exceed those identified in the
discoveries.

Based on the provided discoveries, each utility company will be able to accommodate the proposed high
school campus with the outlined onsite and offsite improvements. Below is a summary of these findings:

[10]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

NV Energy - Electrical
Wood Rodgers met with NV Energy and reviewed the Discovery prepared by NV Energy with regards to
electrical service to the proposed campus. NV Energy identified the existing Sullivan Lane distribution line
as the preferred point of connection for electric service. This line has sufficient capacity to serve the
planned campus without the need for offsite improvement. Service will come off this overhead line and
will be conveyed through the site with an underground service.

In addition, some of the current site alternatives include a campus adjacent to and in some cases under
an existing transmission line crossing the parcel in the east-west direction. Wood Rodgers met with NV
Energy to discuss the potential of a campus near or under this existing transmission line. After discussion
with NV Energy it was concluded that this transmission line can remain in place such that minimum
building and site vertical clearances are maintained. If site development cannot maintain minimum
clearances, the transmission line will need to be relocated or raised as appropriate. NV Energy did not
identify any reasons for which this transmission line could not be relocated or raised. If relocated, NV
Energy will require necessary access and easements for the relocated line.

NV Energy can further evaluate impacts to the transmission line or service in more detail once a site
alternative is chosen, however based on the information available to date electrical service or existing
lines will not preclude the construction of the campus at this location.

NV Energy – Gas
Upon review of the gas portion of the discovery, gas service for the campus must be taken from an existing
gas distribution main located in Wedekind Road. NV Energy noted that the gas main within Wedekind will
need to extended approximately 750 feet to provide service to the campus. Furthermore, NV Energy
identified a “few sections of gas main” within Oddie Boulevard which will need to upsized to provide
sufficient capacity to serve the proposed campus. During final design, NV Energy will evaluate these offsite
improvements to determine if they solely benefit the project or if they benefit the system as a whole. If
the improvements are found to benefit the system as a whole, NV Energy will share the offsite
improvements costs.

Once the offsite improvements are completed, NV Energy can meet the campus demands for gas service.

Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA)


Based on TMWA’s discovery, domestic water and fire service will come from water mains within Sullivan
Lane. TMWA currently has two mains located in Sullivan Lane which are identified as Sullivan-1 Pressure
Zone and the Highland Gravity Zone. These two zones were identified by TMWA as being able to meet to
project demands.

Domestic water service was identified to come from the Sullivan-1 Pressure Zone. The Sullivan-1 Pressure
Zone is a high pressure system and as a result a pressure regulator may be necessary. This is typical for

[11]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

water services from high pressure zones. The Sullivan-1 Pressure Zone can meet the campus demands for
domestic water service.

Due to the large volume of water needed to meet the fire demands, assumed to be 4000 gpm for 4 hours,
the fire service will be served from the Highland Gravity Zone. Per TMWA’s discovery, the residual
pressure at max day plus fire demand is around 30 psi. Depending on the location of the campus with
relation to the fire service, a fire pump may be necessary to meet residual pressure code requirements at
the building and on-site fire hydrants.

Preliminary FAA Airspace Review


Based on our review of RTAA and FAA airspace requirements the site can be developed without creating
an airspace surface obstruction. Building height(s) and site/athletic lighting should be monitored during
final design to ensure all proposed structures maximum elevation are below the FAA Part 77 Approach
and One-Engine Inoperable (OEI) surfaces. The maximum developable building elevations are shown in
Figure 1 and further discussed in the detailed Airspace Review found in Appendix K. Final allowable
building heights will vary depending on location on the site and proposed finish grade elevations, however
a structure height of 150’ or less can be constructed (from existing ground elevation) without creating an
airspace obstruction regardless of location on the site. It should be noted that the maximum developable
elevation is determined from the OEI surface regardless of site grading.
RTIA noise contours were reviewed in relation to the project site to determine if noise abatements would
be required as part of the potential development. Based on the RTIA published noise contours, the project
site resides beyond the 65-decibel contour. The FAA recommends noise mitigation measures to facilities
within the 65-decibel contour. Mitigation for any facility beyond the 65-decibel contour is optional and
while not required, noise mitigation should be considered during final design of the facility.

The high school at Wildcreek is currently proposed with several athletic fields, each of which has the
potential of being lit for nighttime activities. Due to the proximity of the project to the RTIA flight path,
care should be taken to ensure any proposed lighting facilities are constructed with light shields and aimed
appropriately to not impact aircraft or aircraft control tower operations.

In summary, the project site has been preliminarily reviewed for probable limitations to development
because of air navigation, aircraft noise impacts and site lighting impacts. We have found that these
considerations do not preclude development of the project site into a potential high school campus. Final
site and building design will have to consider these potential impacts to ensure the final campus solution
works in conjunction with the surrounding aviation activities. The results of this FAA Airspace Review has
been presented to and reviewed with RTIA staff. RTIA staff agreed with the preliminary findings and
recommended that further coordination with the FAA and the RTIA will be required as a part of any
development on this project site, in conjunction with the normal permitting process for the project.

Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

Water Rights
Water rights research was conducted to determine the amount of water rights that are appurtenant to
the property (including reclaimed water) and the ability to convert said water for potable purposes for
use by the future high school. The water rights report is provided in Appendix L, with the following
findings:
• Two surface water rights permits were found for the subject property. The permits have a
combined duty of not to exceed 520.19 acre feet per acre from all sources.
o Permit No. 78563 (Certificate No. 18122) includes 506.784 AFA (Duty of 4.0 acre feet per
acre from all sources) from Wells Creek. The manner of use is for recreation to irrigate
the golf course for both of the Wildcreek Golf Course parcels.
o Permit No. 78564 (Certificate No. 18123) includes 69.20 AFA (Duty of 4.0 acre feet per
acre from all sources) from the Truckee River via Orr ditch, with the manner of use is
recreation to irrigate the golf course.
• The water rights that are appurtenant to the subject property are portions of both of the above
permits, being 119.39 acres at a duty of 4 acre feet per acre for a total of 477.56 AFA.
• Permit No. 78563 (Wells Creek) will not easily be converted to TMWA since it is a creek right with
intermittent flows. Permit No. 78564 (Truckee River via Orr Ditch) can be converted to a municipal
use and into TMWA service by filing an Application to Change at the Nevada State Engineer’s
Office.

Additionally, the Wildcreek Golf Course currently has an Agreement for the Sale and Use of Treated
Effluent with the City of Sparks to provide reclaimed water for irrigation purposes. The agreement (copy
provided in Appendix L) stipulates that the golf course must dedicate 500 acre feet of water annually in
return for 500 acre feet reclaimed water delivery to the site. The agreement further stipulates that the
golf course agrees to purchase 500 acre feet of reclaimed water at a cost of $300,000 annually.
Information provided to Wood Rodgers and WCSD regarding the water rights associated with this effluent
agreement indicate that the City of Sparks currently holds 448.88 acre feet of Truckee River water rights
(an amount originally purchased from the Conforte family with the purchase of the land) under Claim 313.
The 448.88 acre feet of water is currently held by City of Sparks and dedicated as return flow to the
Truckee River. Upon expiration of the Effluent Agreement, the 448.88 acre feet of water rights returns to
the RSCVA.

The agreement contains a 25-year term that expires March 31, 2022. Item 19 of the agreement identifies
that upon sale of the golf course, the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitor’s Authority shall provide the
City of Sparks with 120 days noticed to “consult with the Sparks regarding any such proposed sale and its
possible consequences”.

Traffic Analysis
The proposed High School at Wildcreek would be designed to accommodate up to 2,500 students, include
a main building of roughly 400,000 square feet, and incorporate the elements of a modern high school

[13]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

including a football stadium, soccer fields, baseball and softball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts,
and other related athletic facilities. The urban areas zoned to attend the High School at Wildcreek are
anticipated to be the current Hug High School zoning district and the entirety of Sun Valley.

Based on the probable zoning boundaries, the vast majority (estimated at 95%) of travel to and from the
high school would be north (Sun Valley) and west (present Hug High zone). Approximately 1,200 of the
2,500 student population will be from Sun Valley and therefore about 50% of travel would be to/from Sun
Valley. It then follows that 45% of travel will be to/from the current Hug High School zone and the
remaining 5% will be miscellaneous trips east on McCarran Boulevard associated with staff and deliveries.
Sullivan Lane, El Rancho Drive, Sun Valley Boulevard, and McCarran Boulevard west of the Wildcreek site,
would be the most affected roadways. McCarran Boulevard east of the site, and roadways further east
from there, would incur only minor traffic increases.

The High School at Wildcreek is expected to be a “closed campus”. Students will not be permitted to leave
campus during the lunch hour or between classes, therefore traffic impacts will be limited to the before
school and after school time periods.

There are several good options for vehicular access to the Wildcreek site. Primary access points would
likely be located on Sullivan Lane and/or at the McCarran Boulevard/Wedekind Road intersection. It is
evident that high quality, high capacity intersections can be reasonably constructed to serve the high
school traffic demand. The various access point options have been considered and discussed with the
City of Sparks and Nevada Department of Transportation, but no decisions have been made at this
preliminary investigation stage.

The following transportation improvements should be anticipated as necessary with the project:
• El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard: Convert the existing westbound to northbound right-turn
lane to a free right-turn with a receiving acceleration and merge lane
• El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane: Add a channelized right-turn lane to the westbound approach at
a minimum, possibly a roundabout or signal depending on the final distribution of traffic
• Sullivan Lane / North Project Access: Construct a single-lane roundabout or other intersection
improvements
• Sullivan Lane / South Project Access: Construct a single-lane roundabout or other intersection
improvements
• McCarran Boulevard / Sullivan Lane: Construct major intersection improvements including
modifying or adding lanes on the northbound and southbound approaches, lengthening of the
eastbound left-turn lane, signal modifications, and signal phasing/timing revisions
• McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road: Construct a traffic signal if permitted by NDOT and the
City of Sparks, OR, construct a median island on McCarran Boulevard limiting traffic movements
to right-in/right-out/left-in access to/from both approaches of Wedekind Road. The median

[14]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

configuration would prohibit left-turn movements and through movements departing from
Wedekind Road to McCarran Boulevard to improve intersection safety. Improvements at this
intersection would only be needed if the project were to obtain access at McCarran
Blvd/Wedekind Road.
• Project Connection to Wedekind Road: If connection is made to Wedekind Road, construct a
roundabout or other intersection improvements on Wedekind Road north of McCarran Boulevard
• Sullivan Lane & McCarran Boulevard Roadways: Construct sidewalks and bicycle lanes along the
project frontage(s)
• Sullivan Lane, El Rancho Drive & McCarran Boulevard Roadways: Construct sidewalks and bicycle
lanes at select locations to fill in gaps in the existing walking/cycling infrastructure
• Public Transit: Based on RTC input, potentially construct a RTC Ride transit stop on Sullivan Lane
near the campus entrance. The RTC may wish to consider changes to Route 15 to better serve
high school students.
• Other improvements as identified by future traffic impact studies: The intersection mitigation
requirements may change based on the final site plan and access configurations. Additionally,
reviewing agencies may require the evaluation of other intersections, traffic scenarios, or
transportation aspects.

Site Plan Feasibility Study


In an effort to determine site feasibility for a high school campus, the design team, consisting of Wood
Rodgers, The Cuningham Group, H+K Architects, Clark/Sullivan, and Traffic Works, collaborated with
WCSD staff to develop site plan diagrammatical scenarios. The purpose of the site scenarios is to
demonstrate that the necessary site components for a high school campus are able to fit on an
approximately 75± acre portion of the project parcel, given the known constraints discussed within this
report. None of the given site scenarios described below and provided in Appendix N should be
considered as the final site plan and it is likely that additional alternatives will be developed in the next
schematic design phase for the project. Please note, where the existing golf course is shown to remain,
final golf course redesign and operations will be determined by Washoe County and the Reno Sparks
Convention Visitors Authority. Additionally, in all of the scenarios, the 100-year flood event will be carried
through the site via an open channel or pipe – no detailed grading and drainage plans are provided at this
time.

Following is a narrative summary of the various alternative site plan feasibility studies completed to date:

Site Scenario #1:


• High school building is oriented toward the southwestern portion of the site, near the intersection
of McCarran Boulevard and Sullivan Lane.
• School campus located in flatter portion of site lending to an opportunity for less grading.
• Northern portion of existing golf course may remain.

[15]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

• Power transmission lines are avoided.


• Orr Ditch requires modification (piping and/or relocation) in southwest portion of site, while
possibly remaining open on the remainder of the site.
• Access modifications to Wedekind Road are contemplated.

Site Scenario #2:


• High school building is located centrally on the site and oriented toward Sullivan Lane.
• Access is distributed to three existing intersections – Wedekind Road, Green Vista Drive and
Niblick Drive.
• Power transmission lines are avoided.
• Option for existing executive golf course and portion of 18-hole golf course to remain.
• School campus located in flatter portion of site lending to an opportunity for less grading.
• Orr Ditch requires modification (piping and/or relocation) along Sullivan Lane frontage.

Site Scenario #3:


• High school building located in northeast portion of site, away from existing residences.
• Access provided entirely from Sullivan Lane.
• Option to retain existing executive golf course and portion of existing 18-hole course, in addition
to existing clubhouse.
• High school building located in areas with greater topographic constraints lending to potential for
increased grading.
• Existing power transmission line may require modification or site plan modifications to work
around power line.
• Orr Ditch may remain intact.

Site Scenario #4 and 4B


• High school building located eastern portion of the site, away from existing residences.
• Access provided entirely from Sullivan Lane.
• Option to retain existing executive golf course and portion of existing 18-hole course, in addition
to existing clubhouse.
• Orr Ditch requires modification (piping and/or relocation) through site.
• Existing power transmission line may require site plan modifications to work around power line.

Site Scenario #5:


• High school building is located centrally on the site and oriented toward Sullivan Lane.
• School campus located in flatter portion of site lending to an opportunity for less grading.
• Access provided entirely from Sullivan Lane.
• Option to retain existing executive golf course and portion of existing 18-hole course, in addition
to existing clubhouse.

[16]
Wildcreek High School Due Diligence Report

• Existing power transmission line may require modification or site plan modifications to work
around power line.
• Orr Ditch requires modification (piping and/or relocation) through site.

Site Scenario #6:


• High school building located in northeast portion of site, away from existing residences.
• Access provided entirely from Sullivan Lane.
• Option to retain existing executive golf course and portion of existing 18-hole course, in addition
to existing clubhouse.
• Existing power transmission line may not require modification.
• Orr Ditch may remain largely intact.

As stated above, while several scenarios were investigated as part of this due diligence effort, it is likely
that many more alternatives will be studied prior to selection of a preferred alternative. Each of the
scenarios above, as well as future iterations, present certain opportunities and constraints that will need
to be weighed with other factors such as constructability, project cost, cost benefit, public/stakeholder
input, etc. that will be studied in future phases of schematic design and design development. All of the
above scenarios successfully demonstrate that a high school campus can feasibly be constructed on the
subject parcel in a wide variety of configurations.

Appraisal Report
An Appraisal Report has been completed by Johnson/Perkins/Griffin Real Estate Appraisers and
Consultants for the subject parcel (Refer to Appendix O). The purpose of the appraisal report is to provide
an opinion of the Market Value Range of the subject property. In addition, the appraisal report addresses
the Market Value Range on a per acre foot basis of the water rights associated with the Wildcreek Golf
Course property.

Chapter 20.03 Use Standards |Section 20.03.038 School (Public or Private)

Section 20.03.038 School (Public or Private)


 Use Category: Public/Civic/Institutional – Educational
Purpose: this section protects the public health, safety and general welfare of City residents, and
implements NRS 278.0211 by standardizing the development standards for schools in the region
(Sparks, Reno, Washoe County). The objectives of these standards are: 1) well-designed schools; 2)
to mitigate the impacts of schools next to residential uses; 3) promote consistency; 4) provide an
appropriate number of parking spaces and 5) provide flexibility in landscaping areas.

A. Applicability
This section applies to the new construction of any new School (Public or Private).

B. Standards

1. The City’s review of school projects will consider the following criteria during the Administrative
Plan Review process:

a. Building Setbacks;

b. Landscaping; and

c. Parking;

2. Site Standards. The following standards deal with the erection of any new school building, and
the addition or alteration of an existing school building.

a. Building Height. There are no restrictions on the building height of a school.

b. Purpose: Having no minimum or maximum height requirements provides for the flexibility
to build unique facilities consistent with the character of the neighboring community. In the
future schools in the urban core may have a smaller footprint and be two or more stories in
height. Depending on the type of school and the amenities it offers, the height will need to
vary.

c. Building setbacks. One foot distance for every foot in height when adjacent to residential
uses. The one foot requirement does apply only to those elevations adjacent to residential
uses. Each elevation will determine the amount of setback, for instance a 25’ front facing
elevation will require a 25’ setback in the front, a 30’ side elevation will require a 30’ setback
on that side, and that same building that has a rear facing elevation adjacent to a use other
than residential will have no setback requirement.

d. Landscaping. Up to 20% of the site. Landscaping details will be determined based on type
of school, community character, and site specifics such as slope and soil quality. These
details will be determined during a pre-application meeting with the City and WCSD.

Sparks Zoning Code | 125


Chapter 20.03 Use Standards |Section 20.03.039 Storage/Processing of Hazardous Chemicals

e. Parking. This is a minimum standard and also presumes all relevant Americans with

Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.009 Parking & Loading

Section 20.04.009 Parking & Loading


Purpose: This section sets minimum standards for off-street parking requirements for new
construction and expansion of or changes to existing uses. This section ensures that uses have a
minimum level of off-street parking to avoid congestion on surrounding streets without creating
excessive parking, discouraging pedestrian access, driving up the cost of development and inviting
excessive levels of traffic congestion.

A. Applicability

1. Permanently maintained off-street parking shall be provided in accordance with this Section for
all developed property within the City.

2. Lawfully established uses which do not conform to this Section are considered to be
substandard developments.

3. If the use of any developed lot or parcel is changed to increase the number of parking spaces
required under this Section, all requirements of this Section apply to that lot or site.

B. Exceptions

1. All required parking must be located on the same site as the use it serves, except in the I, TC, C2,
C1, and PO when off-site parking (excluding the public right of way) may be considered through
a shared parking plan or alternative requirements through:

a. Shared parking and alternative standards.

(1) In any development where the requirements of this Section can be met by non-
concurrent, joint use of the same spaces by more than one business, the Administrator
may permit the parking requirement to be reduced accordingly.

(2) All joint use parking spaces shall be located within ¼ of a mile of the uses that they
serve. If the spaces are located off – site, this distance is measured from the property
line of the use served.

(3) The Administrator may approve the use of alternative parking space requirements
based on Urban Land Institute, American Planning Association, Institute of
Transportation Engineers or other analytical studies approved by the Administrator, that
take into account monthly, hourly and weekly variation; peaking characteristics, ride
share programs, proximity to transit stops and shared uses. The applicant shall justify
the use of and appropriateness of alternative parking number calculations.

2. All required parking must be on the same site it serves. Exceptions may be considered up to ¼
mile from the respective site in the Mixed Use District provided that:

Sparks Zoning Code | 167


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.009 Parking & Loading

a. Development within this district may use shared parking arrangements to reduce overall
parking requirements, as provided in Chapter 20.04. On-street parking along the frontage of
any use is counted toward required off-street parking.

b. Onsite parking requirements may be further reduced through a Shared Parking Credit.

c. The Administrator may approve additional parking credits if the applicant provides a parking
study that demonstrates that parking demands will be met with an alternative parking
configuration or requirement.

d. The Administrator may approve alternative parking configurations for multi-building


developments subject to compliance with standards for setbacks building design, and site
design. (i.e. parking located in the rear, side, or front of buildings.)

3. A low income parking credit may be provided by the Administrator for residential uses that are
income or rent restricted and are at or below 45% of AMI (Area Median Income) through a
parking study.

4. For residential uses on lots or sites occupied by no more than four dwelling units, the
Administrator may approve a parking layout which contains tandem parking spaces.

5. In parking facilities accommodating at least twenty cars, up to 25% of the parking spaces
required by this Section may be sized for compact cars. The spaces shall conform to the
minimum sizes and design geometry for compact cars, contained in subsection D, and shall be
given preferred locations within the facility. Each compact space shall be clearly marked
"compact only."

6. Parking for the disabled shall be provided in all parking facilities serving the public.

aisles are clearly indicated. Directional markers and signs indicating spaces reserved for compact
cars and the handicapped shall be painted on the pavement or placed on standards, as directed
by the Administrator.

8. All off-street parking lots as well as driveways and access roads must be paved. The
Administrator may grant an exception for any parking lot which is, of necessity, subject to
regular use by heavy construction equipment.

A Conditional Use Permit may authorize the use of unpaved parking lots for up to one year. Designs
for paving, curb and gutter, sidewalks, utilities and drainage for all off-street parking facilities shall
be approved by the Administrator prior to construction.

C. Number of Off-street Parking Spaces Required

1. This section specifies the required number of off-street parking spaces related to various land
uses.

2. For any use not specifically covered by one of the following categories, the requirement shall be
determined by the Administrator based on actual parking demand associated with that use.

3. The Administrator may require spaces in addition to those specified in this section if special
circumstances exist.

E. Parking District No. 1


The purpose of Town Center Parking District No. 1 is to –
 Provide for the use of parking spaces in city owned facilities to provide businesses within the
district which are not able to provide the required off-street parking required by this
Section, and
 Provide for leasing of parking spaces in city owned parking facilities to private businesses to
further the goals of the redevelopment effort.

1. Victorian Square Parking District No. 1 is established.

2. Boundaries. The boundaries of the parking district are described as follows:

Beginning at the intersection of the centerline of Victorian Avenue and the centerline of
Fifteenth Street, and proceeding thence northerly along said extended line to its
intersection with the centerline of D Street and Victorian Plaza Circle, thence easterly
along the centerline of D street to its intersection with the centerline of the Pyramid
Way, with the centerline of Victorian Avenue, extended westerly along said centerline
to its point of origin.

3. Parking Space Fee

a. The City Council may, by resolution, approve and adopt a form of agreement for the use of
spaces in the parking district which include, but are not limited to, penalties for late

Sparks Zoning Code | 175


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.009 Parking & Loading

payments, security for the payment of obligations, maintenance provisions and procedures
to withdraw from the parking district.

b. Terms of this agreement may be negotiated subject to specific redevelopment agreements


developed in cooperation with the Sparks Redevelopment Agency.

4. Requirements for commercial uses marked with a diamond () in Parking Ratio Table are
modified for Parking District No. 1 by the following exemption program:

a. The indicated commercial uses are exempt from all parking requirements if they qualify
based on one of the following 3 criteria:

(1) New construction of a building less than 10,000 square feet in size;

(2) New construction of a building addition where the total area of the building addition
and the existing building is less than 10,000 square feet in size;

(3) An indicated commercial use occupying an existing building of less than 10,000 square
feet in size.

b. If the 10,000 square foot limit is exceeded for an indicated commercial use, the use shall
receive a parking exemption equal to the 10,000 square foot limit, and is responsible for
providing parking for the area exceeding the 10,000 square foot limit in accordance with the
requirements listed in the parking ratio table.

c. If a business has existing excess parking, it may count that excess parking towards any new
parking required as a result of expansion or new construction.

5. Petition for inclusion in the parking district. At any time following the district formation, any
parcel of land, whether contiguous or noncontiguous to the district, may be added to the district
if the use is identified with a diamond and the owner of such parcel files with the City Council a
petition for inclusion and the City Council grants such petition. The City Council must find that
sufficient additional parking space is available in the parking district and that inclusion will
benefit the parking district in order to grant the petition. If the petition is granted, the parcel is
then entitled to the same rights as those which apply to other lands in the district, and is subject
to all fees levied on a district member.

6. Requirements for hotel/casino uses in Victorian Square Parking District No. 1 are 50% of what is
required in Table 20.04.011-3 Parking Ratios.

F. Off-street Loading

1. In order to avoid undue interference with the public use of streets or alleys, there shall be
provided and maintained adequate off-street space for standing, loading or unloading for those
uses involving receipt and distribution of vehicles or merchandise and materials off-street.

Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges

Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges


Purpose: this chapter regulates development on hills and slopes to promote quality land
development by regulating the potential for the aesthetic degradation of sites through orderly
development with slopes in conjunction with of the city's natural environment and scenic backdrop.
(Ord. 1880, 1995: Ord. 1577 § 1 (part), 1987.)

A. Applicability

1. A presubmittal meeting with staff is required for any development project to be undertaken on
project sites having slope gradients of at least 10% or greater over at least 25% of the site. For
development greater than 10 acres and/or when exceeding any minimum standard in this
section a Conditional Use Permit may be applied for. For projects less than 10 acres and
compliance with standards is demonstrated, the Administrative Review process shall be utilized.

2. The minimum average slope of a project site is used to identify the threshold (i.e., a slope map).

3. The major deviation process ( see Chapter 20.05) does not apply to this section.

B. Design Policies. Any development subject to the requirements of this Section shall be designed in
accordance with the best applicable practices of land use planning, engineering, geology, hydrology,
civil and structural engineering, environmental design, architecture and landscape architecture,
including but not limited to the following:

1. The site of the proposed development shall be analyzed to identify the design constraints
imposed by hydrological and geological conditions, soils, slopes and other natural topographic
conditions. In order to secure a Conditional Use Permit, the project shall respect the natural
constraints in the design of the development.

2. The development shall be designed with consideration for limiting aesthetic degradation of the
site, as well as erosion, sedimentation and other hazards.

3. Long slopes with sharp transitions are generally considered undesirable.

4. Buildings should be designed and placed on the site so as to visually complement each other and
the natural land forms of the site. The placement of buildings on or near hilltops or ridges must
show a high degree of sensitivity to the terrain and its visual impact. Definitive plans shall be
prepared that clearly demonstrate this sensitivity for project approval.

C. Grading

1. No grading or clearing of any kind may be initiated until a final grading permit is issued unless
exempted by Sparks Municipal Code Title 15. Grading shall also comply with the most restrictive
requirements of Title 15 of the Sparks Municipal Code.

Sparks Zoning Code | 211


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges

2. Grading shall be designed so that finished grading resembles natural land forms as much as
practical with rounded transitions or variable slope gradients.

3. A graded slope that exceeds 33⅓ % (3:1) and over 3 feet in height shall have a solution
presented that stabilizes the slope and minimizes scarring.

4. The portion of any development site which may be cleared, graded or otherwise disturbed by
construction is limited to a percentage of the site area, based on the natural slope of the site, as
follows:

a. The applicant shall provide a slope or "cell" map which groups small areas of similar slope
together, gridded at a maximum contour interval of 2 feet.

b. The slope categories or groups are as listed below. This establishes the maximum disturbed
area within each slope category over the entire site.

c. Then the maximum area within each category that can be disturbed is calculated by
applying the fraction indicated below:
Slope Category Maximum Disturbed Area
0— 15 % Unlimited
16—25% ¾ of the category
26—30% ⅓ of the category
30% or above When developing on natural slopes over 30% project design shall
be enhanced to create a 2:1 ratio of non-constrained area being
preserved as open space for every portion of area with slopes
over 30% that is developed

d. Once the calculation of disturbed area is made, this becomes the total disturbed area over
the entire site. Disturbed areas can be aggregated and do not need to be specific to the
slope category.

5. The final grading plan for the development shall include mapping and calculations necessary to
demonstrate compliance with these requirements.

6. Before a grading permit is issued, a temporary fence shall be constructed on the site defining
the limits of the area to be disturbed as shown on the final grading plan. That fence shall be
inspected and approved by the Administrator before the grading permit is issued and shall
remain in place until final grading inspection and approval.

D. Erosion and Sedimentation Control

1. For any project which involves a graded area larger than one acre, a temporary erosion and
sedimentation plan, including dust control must be approved by the Administrator before a
grading permit is issued. If grading of an area larger than one acre is to proceed in phases, the
erosion and sedimentation control plan shall contain a phasing schedule showing how large an

Sparks Zoning Code | 212


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges

area will be exposed at any one time. Land will be considered exposed from the time it is
cleared, graded or otherwise disturbed until it is permanently stabilized by paving, landscaping
or vegetation according to approved plans.

2. At any time during construction when more than one acre is exposed, all temporary erosion and
sedimentation control measures shall be continuously applied and maintained.

3. In order to keep the grading permit valid, a bond or other surety in an amount determined by
the Administrator must be provided by the developer.

E. Landscaping

1. In addition to the landscaping requirements of this Chapter, landscaping and/or revegetation is


required to stabilize all slopes which have been:

a. Cleared,

b. Graded,

c. Otherwise disturbed by development subject to this Section, or

d. Visible from public rights-of-way.

2. Landscaping shall be dispersed throughout the stabilized area.

3. Interior side yard sloped areas of individual lots are exempt from the landscaping and irrigation
requirement.

4. Planting shall be designed to achieve 90% ground coverage of any disturbed area within 3 years.

F. Open Space

1. Any portion of a development on which clearing and grading is not allowed under subsection C
(undisturbed area) must be:

a. Placed within any required open space;

b. Protected from disturbance through fencing or other permanent access restrictions, or

c. Subject to a permanent open space deed restriction in favor of the city.

2. If the application involves subdivision plat approval, the applicant must provide a plan to
maintain any required open space which is not a part of a developed lot.

3. Open space areas shall include a variety of slope gradients and not contain only slopes within
one slope category.

4. The open space must be accessible to the residents.

Sparks Zoning Code | 213


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges

G. Hilltops or Ridgelines
Any hilltop or ridgeline, that is identified by the City as a significant hilltop or ridgeline, shall have
additional setback requirements. The setback requirement shall vary dependent on the slope(s) of
the ridgeline or hilltop and the proposed heights or structures.

Sparks Zoning Code | 214


Chapter 20.04 Development Standards |Section 20.04.011 Slopes, Hilltops & Ridges

Dear Mr. Gabica: 
Presented herein are the results of Wood Rodgers’ geotechnical exploration and associated geotechnical 
due  diligence  letter  for  the  referenced  project  located  in  Sparks,  Washoe  County,  Nevada.  The 
assessments  and  recommendations  presented  in  this  geotechnical  report  have  been  framed,  in  part, 
around  the  surface  and  subsurface  conditions  identified  by  our  exploration  program  which  was 
developed to be consistent with locally accepted industry practices regarding exploratory methods and 
geotechnical investigations for similar type projects.  
 
FINDINGS SUMMARY 
Based  on  our  exploration  and  analyses,  the  site  is  suitable  for  the  proposed  development.  Once  soils 
have been adequately prepared, standard spread foundations should perform well for the development. 
If it is desired to limit grading, structural slab foundations or pier and grade beam foundations may be 
considered.  
 
The  following  paragraphs  present  our  findings  and  address  our  bases  for  our  assessments.  These 
sections  should  be  consulted  if  more  detailed  information  is  desired  in  making  your  due  diligence 
assessments.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION 
It  is  our  understanding  the  property  will  be 
developed  to  provide  grading,  infrastructure,  and 
construction  of  facilities  to  include:  a  high  school, 
athletic  fields,  a  pre‐kindergarten  building,  and  a 
community center with a natatorium. Development 
area  is  approximately  100  acres  and  is  located 
within  the  northeast  corner  of  the  Sullivan  Lane 
and North McCarran Boulevard intersection. 
 
Any street improvements will be dedicated to their 
respective regulatory agencies (i.e. City of Sparks or 
NDOT)  and  their  design  standards.  Underground 
utilities  will  be  provided  by  a  variety  of  public  and 
private companies. 
 
The  project  is  anticipated  to  be  phased  for  a  balance  of  cuts  and  fills.  However,  imported  material  is 
anticipated to be required to develop separation layers between the native  clayey soils and structural 
elements  including  standard  spread  foundations,  concrete  slabs‐on‐grade,  pavements,  or  any  other 
structure  that  derives  support  from  the  underlying  soil.  The  amount  of  required  import  would  be 
reduced  if  structural  foundations  (post‐tensioned  slabs,  conventionally  reinforced  slabs)  are  utilized. 
Cuts and fills are anticipated to be less than 20‐feet. 
 
SITE CONDITIONS 
The  overall  site,  located  in  Sparks,  Washoe  County,  Nevada,  is  contained  within  APN  027‐011‐05  and 
encompasses  a  total  area  of  212  acres.  The  development  is  contained  in  Section  32,  Township  20N, 
Range 20E, M.D.M. As shown in Figure 1, open space and Wildcreek Park border the lot to the north, 
single  family  houses  border  the  lot  to  the  east,  southeast  corner  and  northwestern  corner,  Wedekind 
Road  and  North  McCarran  Boulevard  surround  the  subject  property  along  the  southern  extents,  and 
Sullivan  Lane  and  El  Rancho  Drive  border  the  property  along  the  western  extents.  Additionally,  Sierra 
Pacific Power Company owns a 2.4 acre lot on the northeast corner of the Sullivan Lane and El Rancho 
Drive intersection. 
 
The  Orr  Ditch  splits  near  the  northwestern  corner  of  the  lot;  the  ditch  runs  roughly  parallel  along  the 
western  perimeter  of  the  subject  property  as  well  as  meandering  from  the  split  in  the  northwestern 
corner to the southeastern area of the lot. The anticipated development area is within the boundary of 
the Orr Ditch. Artificial ponds are scattered throughout the existing property in‐between the split of the 
Orr Ditch and are anticipated to present heavy organic layers along the bottom and sideds of the ponds.

The topography of the site varies but overall slopes to the south and to the center of the two Orr Ditch 
channels. In roughly the center of the Orr Ditch boundary the development area gently slopes down to 
the  south  at  approximately  one  percent;  slopes  rise  from  in‐between  the  Orr  Ditch  channels  to  the 
western  lot  perimeter  at  approximately  four  to  nine  percent  and  to  the  eastern  extents  of  the 
anticipated development at approximately six to seven percent. Slope facings in‐between the Orr Ditch 
channels contain localized areas that contain shallow slopes or flat areas. East of the eastern Orr Ditch 
boundary  and  towards  the  eastern  extents  of  the  subject  property  the  slopes  become  significantly 
steeper.  Vegetation  is  moderate  throught  the  project  site  and  consists  mostly  of  grasses,  brush,  and 
mature trees. The majority of the trees border the Orr Ditch and artificial ponds. 
 
EXPLORATION 
The  project  was  explored  on  June  30,  2017,  July  26,  2017,  and  October  31,  2017,  by  performing 
geophysical  surveying  (ReMi)  and  advancing  two  bore  holes  using  a  CME  55  rubber  tire  mounted  drill 
rig, respectively. The approximate locations of the ReMi lines and bore holes are shown on Plate A‐1 – 
Site  Map  and  Approximate  Exploration  locations.  The  maximum  depth  of  the  bore  holes  was  25‐feet 
below the existing ground surface.  
 
Data acquisition of primary wave (p‐wave) velocities was performed along four survey lines to provide a 
basis  to  assess  the  potential  rippability  of  the  more  significant  cut  zones.  Shear  wave  velocity 
measurements  have  been  relied  upon  for  the  development  of  geotechnical  design  characterization  of 
soil stiffness. This information also aids in a screening protocol for assessing liquefaction potential.  
 
Wood Rodgers’ personnel examined and classified all soils in the field in general accordance with ASTM D 
2488 (Description and Identification of Soils). During exploration, representative bulk samples were placed in 
sealed plastic bags and returned to our Reno, Nevada 
laboratory  for  testing.  Logs  of  the  bore  holes  are 
presented as Plate A‐2. A USCS chart has been included 
as Plate A‐3 ‐ Unified Soil Classification and Key to Soil 
Descriptions. 
 
GEOLOGIC AND GENERAL SOIL AND 
GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS 
Based on the USGS’ National Geologic Map Database 
of  the  Mount  Rose  NE  Quadrangle  (Ramelli,  A.R., 
and  Henry,  C.D.,  2010),  and  presented  in  Figure  2, 
the  site  is  mapped  in  an  area  of  Truckee  River 
younger  alluvial  deposits  (Qay)  and  alluvial  fan 
deposits  (Qfp).  The  eastern  extents  of  the

development area encroaches upon hydrothermally altered andesite and breccia of Peavine Mountain 
(Tpaa). These hydrothermally altered andesites can become critical considerations in site development 
due to the presence of highly altered zones that present highly plastic clay joints and seams.  
 
The  USDA  Natural  Resource  Conservation  Service  (NRCS)  maps  the  development  area  as  mostly 
consisting  of  clays  and  fat  clays  within  the  upper  two  to  five  feet.  The  soil  units  encountered  in  our 
explorations were mostly consistent with the geologic map and NRCS and typically consisted of medium 
to high plasticity clayey sands and sandy lean clay to fat clays in the upper 5‐feet. Below 5‐feet, layers of 
silty  sands,  well  graded  sands,  clayey  sands,  and  sandy  lean  clays  to  fat  clays  were  encountered.  The 
granular  soil  exhibited  medium  dense  to  very  dense  consistencies  where  the  sandy  lean  clays  and  fat 
clays were mostly stiff to very stiff throughout the profiles. Approximately 72 percent and 56 percent of 
the boring’s profiles exhibited medium to high plasticity soils in bore holes BH‐1 and BH‐2, respectively. 
 
The soil profiles encountered in our explorations typically consisted of clayey sand and sandy clay to fat

Groundwater was not encountered in either of our borings. The Nevada Division of Water Resources has 
a  record  of  a  well  on  the  address  of  Wildcreek  Golf  Course  in  which  the  hole  depth  was  145‐feet;  no 
static water level was encountered. 
 
SEISMIC HAZARDS 
The Truckee Meadows lies within the western extreme of the Basin and Range physiographic province 
sandwiched between the Pah Rah Range to the east and the Carson Range to the west. The Basin and 
Range  province  is  characterized  by  a  series  of  valleys  bounded  by  north/south  trending  mountain 
ranges, byproducts of the seismically active zones of the Wasatch Front in Utah and the Sierra Nevada 
Mountains  along  the  California/Nevada  border.  Faulting  and  seismic  activity  are  integral  to  the 
formation of this series of alternating valleys and mountain ranges. As a consequence the presence of 
faults, active and inactive, is common in western Nevada. 
 
A  criteria  for  evaluating  earthquake  faults  has  been  formulated  by  a  professional  committee  for  the 
State of Nevada Seismic Safety Council. The guidelines present that faults with evidence of movement 
within the past 10,000 years (Holocene time) are considered Holocene Active.  Faults with evidence of 
displacement  within  the  last  130,000  years  are  considered  Late  Quaternary  Active  and  faults  with 
movement  within  the  last  1.6  million  years  are  considered  Quaternary  Active.  The  USGS  Earthquake 
Hazards Program was accessed to review the proximity of any active faults as previously characterized. 
The closest mapped fault is located approximately 1.3 miles to the northwest the site; this fault is dated 
as latest Quaternary with a slip rate of less than 0.2 mm/year and is sufficiently distant that offsets or 
additional considerations would not be required.

S‐wave velocities typically less than 700 ft/s are required for liquefaction to develop. The results of our 
s‐wave velocity profiles presented in Appendix A encountered a shear wave velocity less than 700 ft/s 
on ReMi line L‐2; however, this was encountered in the upper 5 feet of soil that is cohesive in nature and 
is  above  the  groundwater  table.  Therefore,  liquefaction  is  not  anticipated  to  be  of  a  concern  for  the 
development. 
 
DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDATIONS 
The  following  paragraphs  present  Wood  Rodgers’  assumptions,  evaluations,  assessments,  and 
recommendations for construction of the residence on the referenced property. 
 
Seismic Design Considerations 
Based on a representative latitude and longitude of the site (39.5591 N, ‐119.7672 E) and Site Class D for 
essential facilities, Table 1 presents a summary of ASCE 7‐10 seismic design values.  
 
These values were developed from the USGS program; the detailed USGS report for an essential facility 
is presented in Appendix B.

Site Preparation and Grading  
The assessments presented herein are dependent upon the final grades decided for the site. We have 
developed  these  assessments  on  the  assumption  that  structural  fill  will  be  the  preferred  mitigation 
approach to dealing with these potentially highly expansive units. Due to the underlying hydrothermally 
altered andesite, the presence of near surface clay, and medium to highly plastic clayey sand and sandy 
lean clay soils, over‐excavation and replacement with structural fill, or raising grade to accommodate a 
structural fill separation layer will be required to achieve adequate foundation support. We anticipate 2 
to  4‐feet  of  structural  fill  separation  may  be  required  beneath  foundation  grade  for  standard  spread 
foundations. This separation layer may be reduced to approximately 1 to 2‐feet below interior slabs‐on‐
grade, roadways, and site work. 
 
Layering  within  the  native  soils  is  too  erratic  to  allow  the  native  soils  to  be  used  as  a  structural  fill 
source.  Clay  soils  may  be  used  as  fill,  however,  special  placement  protocols  (such  as  moisture 
conditioning  and  compaction)  will  be  need  to  be  developed  to  mitigate  their  associated  expansion 
potential.

Site Stiffness and Potential Excavatability 
Per the ASCE 7‐10 Standard, Site Class C (Vs100 between 1,200 ‐ 2,500 ft/s) shear wave (s‐wave) velocity 
profiles  were  encountered  in  the  northern  portions  of  the  property  (Lines  3  and  4);  additionally,  Site 
Class  D  (Vs100  between  600  –  1,200  ft/s)  profiles  were  obtained  for  the  southern  portion  of  the 
property (Lines 1 and 2). Vs100, the design value around which Site Class is determined, was 1096 ft/s.   
 
Data  acquisition  of  p‐wave  measurements  occurred  along  the  four  survey  lines.  Results  from  the 
geophysical  surveys  were  considered  for  rippability;  the  profiles  are  presented  in  Appendix  A.  Charts 
presented  in  Caterpillar’s  Handbook  of  Ripping  (12th  Edition)  indicate  that  rippability  can  become 
difficult  using  a  CAT  D8  ripper  at  4,000  ft/s  and  adverse  conditions  exist  around  5,000  ft/s.  Table  2, 
below, summarizes where each geophysical p‐wave survey line encountered 4,000 ft/s and 5,000 ft/s. 
Caterpillar  also  indicates  that  rock  mechanics,  in‐place  rock  mass  characteristics  (rock  type,  degree  of 
weathering,  bedding  features,  joint  characteristics,  and  many  other  geologic  features),  ripping  tractor 
horsepower, gross weight, and down pressure all influence rippability and should be considered as part 
of  the  overall  rippability  assessment  when  planning  grading  means  and  methods.  Once  preliminary 
grading  plans have been developed, depth of rock excavation should be  examined to see if additional 
studies  would  be  warranted.  Based  on  our  preliminary  findings  and  assessments  it  appears  as  though 
the bulk of the rock would be excavatable on the majority of the site. Pockets or seams of hard rock are 
expected in the northern portions of the property where p‐wave measurements indicate 5,000 ft/s as 
high as the ground surface (Line 4). It  should be cautioned  that  the bedrock  units associated with the 
site are known to have competent rock pockets, within a field of weak rock, which may require special 
excavation techniques.  
 
Table 2 ‐ Geophysical P‐Wave Velocity Summary 
Line  Depth (ft) to 4000 ft/s  Depth (ft) to 5,000 ft/s

L‐3  15 ‐ 50  20 ‐ 55 
L‐4  0 ‐ 25  0 ‐ 30 
 
Foundations 
Once  soils  have  been  adequately  prepared,  standard  spread  foundations  should  perform  well  for  the 
development.  If  it  is  desired  to  limit  grading,  structural  slab  foundations  or  pier  and  grade  beam 
foundations may be considered.  
 
Additional Exploration 
Due to the need for imported structural fill for the proposed development, additional exploration may 
be performed on the surrounding hillsides in order to develop a rockfill borrow pit.

Meeting/Phone Summary
For Your Information

Re: Wildcreek Golf Course Common and Sensitive Species of Wildlife and Plants
In response to your request, I completed a US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) database query (IPaC
Information for Planning and Consultation online tool) to determine if there is potential for any federally
protected species to occur within the Wildcreek Golf Course. In addition, we have obtained a formal species list
from the USFWS (attached) for the project area.
We have submitted a data request to the Nevada Natural Heritage Program to determine if there is potential for
rare or at-risk species to occur within the project area, and we have reviewed the Nevada Department of Wildlife
GIS Data Clearinghouse to determine what if any game species may occur within the project area.
Results of these queries are presented below.
USFWS IPaC
The database query revealed that there are 4 threatened, endangered, or candidate (sensitive) species that have
potential to occur within the project area and/or may be affected by the proposed project. In accordance with the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 as amended (ESA, 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), threatened and endangered species
are protected under the ESA, however candidate specie have no protection under the ESA but are included for
consideration because they could be listed prior to the completion of the project. In addition, 17 migratory birds
protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act are expected to
occur or may be affected by the proposed project.
Sensitive species include:
Endangered Cui-ui (Chasmistes cujus) - The Cui-ui was listed by the USFWS as endangered in March of 1967
(Federal Register Vol. 32, p. 4001). There is no critical habitat currently designated for this specie, but are they
protected everywhere they are found (USFWS, 2014). Cui-ui is a lake sucker found in only one place in the
world; Pyramid Lake and the lower Truckee River, all within the PLIR. It spends most of its life in Pyramid
Lake, leaving only to spawn in the lower Truckee River between March and June when it reaches maturity
between 6-12 years of age (USFWS 2014). The lower Truckee River is considered the river segment from
Wadsworth, NV to Pyramid Lake.
Essential habitat for cui-ui has been determined, by the USFWS, to be the Truckee River from Hunter Creek in
West Reno to, and including, Pyramid Lake and its tributaries. No critical habitat has been designated for the
cui-ui (USFWS, 1992). Although the USFWS Cui-ui Recovery Plan (1992) states the essential habitat has been
determined to be the Truckee River from Hunter Creek to Pyramid Lake, this most likely represents the historical
occupied habitat of the Cui-ui. Cui-ui have not been known to pass the Derby Dam since its construction in 1905.
Derby Dam is approximately 31 river miles upstream of the project area and approximately 20 river miles
downstream of Reno.
Current populations of cui-ui in the lower Truckee are augmented by hatchery releases by the PLPT. The PLPT
raise cui-ui larvae at the Big Bend Cui-ui Facility within the PLIR. Larvae are then released in the spring at

5440 Reno Corporate Drive, NV 89511 Tel: 775.823.4068 Fax: 775.823.4066

multiple points along the lower Truckee River below the Truckee River Bridge near Wadsworth, NV on Interstate
80. PLPT Fisheries annual goal is to stock up to 2,000,000 cui-ui larvae per year in the Lower Truckee River.
Release locations include but are not limited to the Truckee River Bridge on I-80 (near Wadsworth), below
Numana Dam and PLPT Fish Hatchery, Nixon Bridge and above Marble Bluff Dam. Release locations are
limited by existing flow levels (too high or too low) and accessibility of equipment to the Truckee River.
Potential for effects: Although the USFWS Cui-ui Recovery Plan (1992) states the essential habitat has been
determined to be the Truckee River from Hunter Creek to Pyramid Lake, Cui-ui have not been known to pass the
Derby Dam since its construction in 1905. Derby Dam is approximately 31 river miles upstream of the project
area and approximately 20 river miles downstream of Reno. Therefore, the proposed project will have no effect,
positive or negative, to the Cui-ui or its essential habitat.

Threatened Lahontan Cutthroat Trout (LCT) (Oncorhynchus clarkii henshawi) - Listed as Endangered on October
13, 1970 and reclassified as Threatened in 1975 (Federal Register Vol. 40 17847 – 17848). There is no critical
habitat currently designated for this specie, but are they protected everywhere they are found. LCT inhabit lakes
and streams, but are obligatory stream spawners. Distance traveled to spawning sites varies with stream size and
strain of LCT (strain refers to locally adapted populations in a particular area or environment). Optimal stream
habitat is characterized by clear, cold water with silt-free substrate and a 1:1 pool-riffle ratio. Streams should have
a variety of habitats including areas with slow deep water, abundant instream cover (i.e., large woody debris,
boulders, undercut banks), and relatively stable streamflow and temperature regimes. Streambanks should be well
vegetated to provide cover, shade, and bank stabilization. Lacustrine LCT populations have adapted to a wide
variety of lake habitats from oligotrophic (with low nutrient levels and primary productivity) alpine lakes (e.g.,
Independence Lake) to large, productive desert terminal lakes (e.g., Pyramid Lake). Unlike most freshwater fish
species, LCT have been reported to tolerate high alkalinity and high total dissolved solid levels.
Although no critical habitat rules have been published for the LCT, within the Truckee River Watershed, LCT
occupy approximately 97 miles of streams and 111,064 acres of lake habitat. Self-sustaining populations of the
species occur in only approximately 10.7 percent of the historic stream habitats and 0.4 percent of the historic
lake habitats (USFWS, 2009).
In 1995, a cooperative 5-year effort was initiated between the USFWS, Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe (PLPT), and
NDOW to study LCT supplementation in each of five Truckee River zones: (1) Wadsworth to Pyramid Lake, (2)
Derby Dam to Wadsworth Bridge, (3) East McCarran Bridge to Derby Dam, (4) Mayberry Bridge to East
McCarran Bridge, and (5) Nevada/California State line to Mayberry Bridge (NDOW 2001). A follow-up creel
census each year was used to determine catch rates. Results over the 5-year period indicated that the catch
consisted of 23 percent LCT compared to 64 percent rainbow trout and 12 percent brown trout (USCOE 2013).
NDOW’s annual assessments have consisted primarily of electrofishing surveys, and in 2001, creel census data
was used to supplement the presence-absence data from Truckee River surveys (USCOE 2013). In addition, the
Desert Research Institute (DRI) has collected baseline hydrologic and biological data near the McCarran Ranch
(Lower Truckee River Reach) in 2003 and 2004. In general, these surveys indicate that rainbow trout and brown
trout make up the majority of the salmonid fishery in the Lower Truckee River. However, without the precision of
population metric data, any trend in these populations is speculative.
Potential for effects: Six river basins, several lakes and streams have been designated as recovery waters for the
LCT; focusing on the Orr Ditch – the Truckee River Operating Agreement (TROA), (USBOR Final Rule
12/05/2008) (Federal Register Vol. 73, No. 235 74031 – 74039) in compliance with the Truckee-Carson- Pyramid
Lake Water Rights Settlement Act “Provide for the enhancement of spawning flows available in the Lower
Truckee River for the Pyramid Lake fishery (endangered cui-ui and threatened Lahontan cutthroat trout [LCT]) in
a manner consistent with the Secretary’s responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act, as amended (ESA).
Therefore, it is reasonable that any project that concerns flows in the Orr Ditch must maintain flows through the
ditch in order to be in compliance with the TROA, Truckee-Carson- Pyramid Lake Water Rights Settlement Act,
and the ESA. If flows are maintained in the Orr Ditch during project development, a project may affect, but is not
likely to adversely affect LCT.

North American wolverine (Gulo gulo luscus) – Proposed threatened February 4, 2013 (Federal Register Vol., 78,
No. 23 7864). Wolverines are habitat generalists and use diverse, coniferous forest types and non-forested alpine
habitats (Banci 1994; Copeland 1996; Hornocker and Hash 1981). Although wolverines historically occurred in
the Sierra Nevada (CWHR v8.1), this species is not known to occur in the Truckee Meadow. Furbearer surveys
using track plates and camera stations were conducted in the Sierra Nevada range from 1996 to 2002. No
wolverines were detected and it likely this species may be extirpated from the survey area, or present in very low
densities (Zielinski et al 2005). However, a wolverine was detected in a camera survey north of Truckee,
California (at least 40 miles north northwest of the project area) in February 2008 and the same individual was
detected again in March 2009. Scientists confirmed it was the same animal through DNA from hair samples and
found that it was a male who dispersed from the Sawtooth Range in Idaho.
Potential for effects: Based on the preceding, it is unlikely that North American wolverine occur within the
Truckee Meadows of Reno, Nevada.

Webber’s ivesia (Ivesia webberi) - Webber’s ivesia is a member of the rose family and was listed as threatened
June 3, 2014 (Federal Register Vol., 79, No. 106 31878). Webber’s ivesia is a low-growing, perennial forb with
clusters of leaves that lie nearly flat on the ground, and are approximately ten inches in diameter. Webber’s ivesia
has greenish-gray leaves, dark red, wiry stems, and headlike clusters of small bright yellow flowers. Flowering
typically begins in May and extends through June and the whole plant becomes reddish-tinged late in the season.
Webber’s ivesia is restricted to sites with sparse vegetation and shallow, rocky, clay soils on mid elevation flats,
benches or terraces between 4,475 and 6,237 feet elevation in Washoe and Douglas Counties in Nevada, and in
Lassen, Plumas and Sierra Counties, in California. All 17 known populations of Webber’s ivesia are within the
transition zone between the eastern edge of the northern Sierra Nevada and the northwestern edge of the Great
Basin. One of these populations is presumed extirpated.
Potential for effects: Given that a majority of the project area historically was irrigated pasture and more recently
was graded, and native soils have been amended or buried to support golf course development, it is highly
unlikely that Webber’s ivesia currently occurs within the project area.
Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) GIS Data Clearinghouse
For game species that have potential to occur within the project area, GIS maps were reviewed. Species include
desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis californiana), American black bear (Ursus americanus), California quail
(Callipepla californica), greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus),
mountain lion (cougar) (Puma concolor), and pronghorn antelope (Antilocapra Americana). Given the variety of
potential food sources and persistent water supported by a golf course, these common game species have potential
to occur within the project area. All species with the exception of the California quail are elusive and prefer to
hunt and feed in the absence of humans and not in proximity to urban environments. On the other hand,
California quail have become very well adapted to urban environments for breeding, brooding, rearing and full
life cycles. Please attached NDOW GIS data maps.

Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act
The Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 (MBTA), codified at 16 U.S.C. §§ 703–712 provides that it is unlawful to
pursue, hunt, take, capture, kill, possess, sell, purchase, barter, import, export, or transport any migratory bird, or
any part, nest, or egg or any such bird, unless authorized under a permit issued by the Secretary of the Interior.
Compliance with the MBTA and BGEPA is attained by completing pre-disturbance nesting bird and raptor
surveys if disturbance is schedule to occur during the nesting season (generally January 1 – September 15). The
survey area is anywhere that vegetation removal and disturbance is necessary. When an active nest of a protected
species is detected, a “buffer” area will be designated until the nestlings have fledged. In addition, survey
coverage will include a search of suitable nesting habitats within a buffer zone (generally 100 feet for non-raptors
and 1,320 feet for raptors) directly adjacent to project boundaries.
Any active nest of a protected species detected within the project footprint or its adjacent buffer will receive a
protective buffer radius around the nest tree and behavior monitoring may be required as per consultation with the
Nevada Department of Wildlife and/or the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
It is important to note that nesting bird and raptor survey results are only valid for a period of 2 weeks (14 days).
Therefore, the first survey is completed 2 weeks prior to the start of disturbance and are repeated every 2 weeks
for disturbance that is scheduled to occur during the nesting season.
If disturbance during the nesting season cannot be avoided, carefully planned and timed removal of nesting
habitat can occur prior to the nesting season, thus minimizing the potential for nesting as well as minimizing the
survey area.

Event Code: 08ENVD00-2018-E-00019
Project Name: WCSD Wildcreek

Subject: List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project
location, and/or may be affected by your proposed project

To Whom It May Concern:

The attached species list indicates threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species and
designated or proposed critical habitat that may occur within the boundary of your proposed
project and/or may be affected by your proposed project. The species list fulfills the
requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA, 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), for projects that are
authorized, funded, or carried out by a Federal agency. Candidate species have no protection
under the ESA but are included for consideration because they could be listed prior to the
completion of your project. Consideration of these species during project planning may assist
species conservation efforts and may prevent the need for future listing actions. For additional
information regarding species that may be found in the proposed project area, visit
http://www.fws.gov/nevada/es/ipac.html.

The purpose of the ESA is to provide a means whereby threatened and endangered species and
the ecosystems upon which they depend may be conserved. Under sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) of
the ESA and its implementing regulations (50 CFR 402 et seq.), Federal agencies are required to
utilize their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered
species and to determine whether projects may affect threatened and endangered species and/or
designated critical habitat.

A Biological Assessment is required for construction projects that are major Federal actions
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment as defined in the National
Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4332(2) (c)). For projects other than major construction
activities, the Service suggests that a biological evaluation similar to a Biological Assessment be
10/05/2017 Event Code: 08ENVD00-2018-E-00019 2

prepared to determine whether the project may affect listed or proposed species and/or
designated or proposed critical habitat. Guidelines for preparing a Biological Assessment can be
found at: http://www.fws.gov/midwest/endangered/section7/ba_guide.html.

If a Federal action agency determines, based on the Biological Assessment or biological


evaluation, that listed species and/or designated critical habitat may be affected by the proposed
project, the agency is required to consult with the Service pursuant to 50 CFR 402. In addition,
the Service recommends that candidate species, proposed species, and proposed critical habitat
be addressed within the consultation. More information on the regulations and procedures for
section 7 consultation, including the role of permit or license applicants, can be found in the
"Endangered Species Consultation Handbook" at:
http://www.fws.gov/endangered/esa-library/pdf/TOC-GLOS.PDF.

New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of
species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this species list. Please feel
free to contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential
impacts to federally listed, proposed, and candidate species and federally designated and
proposed critical habitat. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations
implementing section 7 of the ESA, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90
days. This verification can be completed formally or informally, as desired. The Service
recommends that verification be completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular
intervals during project planning and implementation, for updates to species lists and
information. An updated list may be requested through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing
the same process used to receive the attached list.

The Nevada Fish and Wildlife Office (NFWO) no longer provides species of concern lists. Most
of these species for which we have concern are also on the Animal and Plant At-Risk Tracking
List for Nevada (At-Risk list) maintained by the State of Nevada's Natural Heritage Program
(Heritage). Instead of maintaining our own list, we adopted Heritage's At-Risk list and are
partnering with them to provide distribution data and information on the conservation needs for
at-risk species to agencies or project proponents. The mission of Heritage is to continually
evaluate the conservation priorities of native plants, animals, and their habitats, particularly those
most vulnerable to extinction or in serious decline. In addition, in order to avoid future conflicts,
we ask that you consider these at-risk species early in your project planning and explore
management alternatives that provide for their long-term conservation.

For a list of at-risk species by county, visit Heritage's website (http://heritage.nv.gov). For a

Furthermore, certain species of fish and wildlife are classified as protected by the State of
10/05/2017 Event Code: 08ENVD00-2018-E-00019 3

Nevada (http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NAC/NAC-503.html). You must first obtain the appropriate


license, permit, or written authorization from the Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) to
take, or possess any parts of protected fish and wildlife species. Please visit
http://www.ndow.org or contact NDOW in northern Nevada (775) 688-1500, in southern Nevada
(702) 486-5127, or in eastern Nevada (775) 777-2300.

Please be aware that bald and golden eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668 et seq.), and projects affecting these species may require
development of an eagle conservation plan (
http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/eagle_guidance.html). Additionally, wind energy projects
should follow the Service's wind energy guidelines (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/) for
minimizing impacts to migratory birds and bats.

The Service's Pacific Southwest Region developed the Interim Guidelines for the Development
of a Project Specific Avian and Bat Protection Plan for Wind Energy Facilities (Interim
Guidelines). This document provides energy facility developers with a tool for assessing the risk
of potential impacts to wildlife resources and delineates how best to design and operate a bird-
and bat-friendly wind facility. These Interim Guidelines are available upon request from the
NFWO. The intent of a Bird and Bat Conservation Strategy is to conserve wildlife resources
while supporting project developers through: (1) establishing project development in an adaptive
management framework; (2) identifying proper siting and project design strategies; (3) designing
and implementing pre-construction surveys; (4) implementing appropriate conservation
measures for each development phase; (5) designing and implementing appropriate
post-construction monitoring strategies; (6) using post-construction studies to better understand
the dynamics of mortality reduction (e.g., changes in blade cut-in speed, assessments of blade
“feathering” success, and studies on the effects of visual and acoustic deterrents) including
efforts tied into Before-After/Control-Impact analysis; and (7) conducting a thorough risk
assessment and validation leading to adjustments in management and mitigation actions.

The template and recommendations set forth in the Interim Guidelines were based upon the
Avian Powerline Interaction Committee's Avian Protection Plan template (http://www.aplic.org/)
developed for electric utilities and modified accordingly to address the unique concerns of wind
energy facilities. These recommendations are also consistent with the Service's wind energy
guidelines. We recommend contacting us as early as possible in the planning process to discuss
the need and process for developing a site-specific Bird and Bat Conservation Strategy.

The Service has also developed guidance regarding wind power development in relation to
prairie grouse leks (sage-grouse are included in this). This document can be found at:
http://www.fws.gov/southwest/es/Oklahoma/documents/te_species/wind%20power/prairie%20grouse%20lek%2
.

Migratory Birds are a Service Trust Resource. Based on the Service's conservation
responsibilities and management authority for migratory birds under the Migratory Bird Treaty
Act of 1918, as amended (MBTA; 16 U.S.C. 703 et seq.), we recommend that any land clearing
or other surface disturbance associated with proposed actions within the project area be timed to
avoid potential destruction of bird nests or young, or birds that breed in the area. Such
10/05/2017 Event Code: 08ENVD00-2018-E-00019 4

destruction may be in violation of the MBTA. Under the MBTA, nests with eggs or young of
migratory birds may not be harmed, nor may migratory birds be killed. Therefore, we
recommend land clearing be conducted outside the avian breeding season. If this is not feasible,
we recommend a qualified biologist survey the area prior to land clearing. If nests are located, or
if other evidence of nesting (i.e., mated pairs, territorial defense, carrying nesting material,
transporting food) is observed, a protective buffer (the size depending on the habitat
requirements of the species) should be delineated and the entire area avoided to prevent
destruction or disturbance to nests until they are no longer active.

Guidance for minimizing impacts to migratory birds for projects involving communications
towers (e.g., cellular, digital television, radio, and emergency broadcast) can be found at:
http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdIssues/Hazards/towers/towers.htm;

If wetlands, springs, or streams are are known to occur in the project area or are present in the
vicinity of the project area, we ask that you be aware of potential impacts project activities may
have on these habitats. Discharge of fill material into wetlands or waters of the United States is
regulated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) pursuant to section 404 of the Clean
Water Act of 1972, as amended. We recommend you contact the ACOE's Regulatory Section
regarding the possible need for a permit. For projects located in northern Nevada (Carson City,
Churchill, Douglas, Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, Lyon, Mineral, Pershing,
Storey, and Washoe Counties) contact the Reno Regulatory Office at 300 Booth Street, Room
3060, Reno, Nevada 89509, (775) 784-5304; in southern Nevada (Clark, Lincoln, Nye, and
White Pine Counties) contact the St. George Regulatory Office at 321 North Mall Drive, Suite

Re: The High School at Wildcreek Campus Due Diligence Services


Task 5.1 - Preliminary Drainage Study

Dear Adam;

The following letter represents the results derived from the Preliminary Drainage Study conducted as part
of the potential High School at Wildcreek due diligence studies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the
existing drainage patterns to identify potential site development constraints. This study is not intended to be
utilized as a regional drainage study or report for final design purposes; a final technical drainage study will
need to be completed as part of project final design.

Project Area
The existing Wildcreek property consists of 330.7± acres within the City of Sparks. North McCarran
Boulevard borders the site to the south, Sullivan Lane borders the site on the west, with single family
residential bordering the site on the east. The potential development of the site includes high school campus
with a high school building, athletic facilities, required parking, and necessary landscaping and drainage
facilities. As part of this due diligence review, a preliminary drainage analysis was completed.

The project area is downstream of the Sun Valley Dam (NV ID # J-272), which provides detention for the
Sun Valley regional drainage area. Discharge from the Sun Valley Dam is conveyed through the project
area.

Regulatory Perspective
The project lies within the City of Sparks and therefore will fall under City of Sparks’ development
standards. The City of Sparks requires potential developments to evaluate the 5-year – 24-hour (minor) and
100 year-24 hour (major) storm events. Proposed drainage infrastructure is required to be sized to convey
the 5 year and 100 year events and all buildings must be built outside of the 100 year storm event
inundation areas. In addition, the City of Sparks requires detention of the post-development 5 year and 100
year peak runoff to limit site discharge to the pre-developed flow.

While not required by local or state ordinance, due to the proximity of the proposed site in relation to the
Sun Valley Dam, the ½ Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) flow was also analyzed and is discussed as part
of this study.

Hydrologic and Hydraulic Methodology
The following methodology was used in conducting this drainage study consistent with the requirements
outlined in the Truckee Meadows Regional Drainage Manual.

The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) method was used in conjunction with HEC-HMS to model the runoff
contributing to the Wild Creek Golf Course below the Sun Valley Dam. The SCS Unit Hydrograph method
uses the unit hydrograph theory as a basis for runoff computations. The unit hydrograph theory computes
rainfall excess hydrographs for a unit amount of rainfall excess applied uniformly over a sub-basin for a
given unit of time (or unit duration). The rainfall excess hydrographs are then transformed to a sub-basin
hydrograph by superimposing each excess hydrograph lagged by the unit duration. Input values include
lagtime, curve number, and precipitation data. A runoff curve number (CN) was developed based on the
hydrologic soil group, cover type, the hydrologic condition and antecedent moisture conditions. The CN
values were obtained from the Truckee Meadows Regional Drainage Manual dated April 30, 2009.
Average velocities for estimating travel time for overland flow were used to develop a time of
concentration and ultimately a lagtime.

Precipitation depths were obtained from Table 601 of the Truckee Meadows Regional Drainage manual as
per Figure 601 of the Truckee Meadows Regional Drainage Manual.

HEC-HMS, a hydrologic modeling software developed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, was utilized
to analyze the runoff from the onsite contributing drainage area to assure that flow rates generated from the
sub-basins are not increased in the design peak flow storm.

Flow extent was analyzed with TUFLOW, a two-dimensional hydraulic modeling program. As the Design
Report for the Sun Valley Flood Control Detention Dam (SVFCDD) did not specify a hydrograph, a
synthetic hydrograph was developed using the peak 100-year and ½ PMF discharge values from the report.
The TUFLOW model grid elevations were calculated from recent aerial topography. The model uses 10-
foot grid cells that were created using the native TUFLOW “Read GRID Zpts” function. Land roughness
values are shown on the following Table 1, and land roughness extents are shown on the attached Land Use
figure. There are no hydraulic structures within the model, and all golf course water features are assumed
to be full when offsite flow is introduced.

Table 1 - Manning's Roughness Coefficients (n values)


Land Cover Classification Roughness Coefficient
Low Density Vegetation (default land cover) 0.060
High Density Vegetation (channel corridor) 0.120
Buildings 0.400
Roads 0.022
Ponds and Standing water 0.03
Maintained grass of bare earth 0.03

The 5-year (minor) storm event was not considered as part of this due diligence study and will be evaluated
during final design. The larger storm events were considered since they will have the greatest impact with
regards to development feasibility
Previous Studies
The following, agency approved, studies were obtained and utilized as a reference for the determining the
existing offsite flow patterns.
 Design Report for the Sun Valley Flood Control Detention Dam prepared by SEA, Inc., dated
August 1987.
 Sun Valley Dam Emergency Action Plan prepared by HDR, Inc., dated January 2007
 Conceptual Drainage Report for Pyramid Highway & US 395 Connector Project prepared by
Jacobs, dated September 2011.

It should be noted that the Pyramid Highway & US 395 Connector report was prepared as a preliminary
planning document and not prepared as a design document for the downstream Sun Valley Dam. As a
result, the SVFCDD report, which was reviewed and accepted by the City of Sparks and the State of
Nevada Division of Water Resources, Dam Safety, were utilized for determining the existing discharge
rates from the Sun Valley Dam.

Existing Drainage Patterns


The existing runoff within the project area is comprised primarily of upstream offsite flow from the Sun
Valley Dam and onsite runoff (approximately 330 acres). The Sun Valley Dam discharges to the project
area through an outlet pipe and/or emergency spillway. Stormwater enters the project area, combines with
the onsite runoff, and is conveyed through a series of small channels and overland flow, and ultimately
enters the public storm drain network at McCarran Boulevard. The existing peak discharge rates from the
Sun Valley Dam, as reported by the SVFCDD report, are shown below in Table 2.

Table 2 – Existing Peak Flows from the Sun Valley Dam


Storm Event Emergency Spillway Discharge Net Downstream Discharge
100 Year 0 cfs 215 cfs
½ PMF 1 9,515 cfs 9,515 cfs
1
Outlet pipe assumed to be clogged during ½ PMF event
The existing golf course has multiple ponds which are maintained close to full with reclaimed water. These
ponds are golf course water features and do not function as stormwater detention basins. For the purposes
of this analysis, all ponds are considered to be full during the given storm events and therefore do not offer
storage capacity. The existing onsite basin, which is primarily open range and turf, was determined to
contribute a peak flow of 184 cfs.

For the purposes of this due diligence study, a conservative assumption of a 100 year additive peak
discharge of 399 cfs (215 cfs from the Dam and 184 cfs from the onsite basin) and ½ PMF discharge of
9,515 cfs were assumed. This estimate is conservative because the onsite basin is expected to peak well
before the peak discharge from the upstream dam enters the site, which will result in lowering the net peak
discharge below an additive peak flow. During final design, storm routing and time(s) to peak flow
between the upstream dam and onsite basin will be determined for sizing onsite detention and drainage
facilities (ditches, channels, overland flow, and/or underground pipe) to convey the 5 year and 100 year
storm events per local design criteria.
The results from the onsite modeling are shown in Appendix A and illustrate the existing inundation area(s)
within the project area for the 100 year, and ½ PMF, flow conditions.

Proposed Condition Drainage Considerations


The proposed site configuration is undetermined at this stage of project and will need to be analyzed during
final design. For the purpose of this due diligence report, the following proposed drainage discussion
should be considered as an order of magnitude discussion of potential improvements required as a result of
development of the site.

As previously discussed, onsite detention will be required to maintain pre-development conditions for the
major (100 yr) and minor (5 yr) storm events. This means that the post-development discharge to the public
drainage system must be less than or equal to the existing discharge during for the 5 and 100 years storms.
Onsite detention can easily be accommodated within the project area and has been incorporated into the
potential site alternatives. As a reference, an estimated 100 year onsite proposed peak flow was determined
to be 223 cfs (existing 182 cfs). Preliminary calculations show a storage volume of about 6 acre-feet will be
needed to adequately meet detention requirements.

Potential site development will need to convey the onsite and offsite stormwater through the project area.
This can be accomplished in a number of ways, however the preferred solution, at this time, is to provide
an open channel along the eastern boundary of the campus. A series of inlets, underground pipe, and
ditches can be used to convey onsite stormwater to the proposed channel. The channel must be sized to
accommodate the 100 year storm event per City of Sparks’ standards. Based on the 100 year flow (399 cfs),
a trapezoidal open channel with a 20 flat bottom, 4:1 side slopes, minimum longitudinal slope of 0.5%, and
a depth of 5’ will accommodate the 100 year flow and maintain 1’ of freeboard. Final open channel sizing
shall be completed as part of final design to consider a proposed 100 year flow, site grading, scour
protection, low flow channel, and other design elements to meet local standards.

Furthermore, based on our analysis of the existing ½ PMF flow, shown in Appendix A, it is feasible that
the education building could be located outside of the ½ PMF inundation area. Modeling should be
completed as part of final design, however it is estimated that any building located beyond 300’ from the
edge of the proposed channel, can be located outside of the ½ PMF inundation area with finish floor
grading considerations. Local and state code do not require a building to be located outside the ½ PMF
flow path. It is recommended that the proposed educational building be located outside the ½ PMF flow
path if feasible. It should be noted, any consideration to locate the building outside of the ½ PMF flow path
would be above and beyond code requirements.
Summary
In summary, the project site has been preliminarily reviewed for probable limitations to development
resulting from onsite or offsite drainage, including the Sun Valley Dam. We have found that existing and
proposed drainage considerations do not preclude development of the project site into a potential high
school campus. Final site and building design will have to consider these potential impacts to ensure the
final campus solution works in conjunction with the drainage requirements.

Preliminary Sewer Capacity Analysis
Memo

To: Andy Hummel, P.E., City of Sparks


From: Dan Stucky, P.E., Atkins
Date: May 11, 2017
Subject: Wildcreek Project-Capacity Analysis
City of Sparks Sewer Model Update

Per the request of the City, Atkins performed a preliminary capacity analysis of the existing sanitary sewer
system downstream of the proposed Wildcreek Project (herein referred to as the “Project”). The purpose of
this analysis was to determine the potential impacts to the existing sanitary sewer system resulting from the
anticipated Project. This potential redevelopment project is planned to encompass multiple parcels (APNs:
027-011-05 and 035-080-04) at the current location of the Wildcreek Golf Course, located north of North
McCarran Boulevard and east of Sullivan Lane (see attached Figure 1). These sewer flows enter the hydraulic
model at manhole SSN029855.This memorandum summarizes the preliminary findings.
Wastewater Flows and Hydraulic Model
In modeling the wastewater generated from the proposed development, Atkins used specific historical water
use data for similar properties around the City and assumptions on return-to-sewer ratios. This approach differs
from the methods used in other post-master plan capacity analysis memorandums, due to the specific and
unique nature of the proposed development plan. Table 1 below summarizes the estimated wastewater flows
generated from the new development and compares to the estimated flows generated from these parcels
under the planned land use designation reflected in the buildout model of the 2016 Sewer Model Update
Technical Report. In the sewer model, the current development was classified as Park/Open Space and was
assumed to not contribute flow to the sewer system, as the sewage flows from the golf course clubhouse were
considered relatively negligible. As shown in Table 1, the Project’s updated development plan increases the
average daily buildout flow by approximately 0.0392 MGD compared to the original buildout land use.

Notes:
1 Buildout land use data based on an estimate provided by City on 4/27/2017
2 Average daily flow estimates based on historical winter-use water use data (assuming 100% return-to-

sewer flows) for comparable developments in the Truckee Meadows:


o High School- used Spanish Springs High School as comparable
o Field House- used South Reno Athletic Club as comparable
o Natatorium- used Alf Sorensen as comparable and scaled per square footage
o Golf Course/Clubhouse- used current Wild Creek Golf Course clubhouse as comparable
• ADWF = average daily dry weather flow

These wastewater flows were loaded into the current version of a City of Sparks InfoSWMM hydraulic model
(originally completed by Atkins, November 3, 2016 as part of the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report).
The following model scenarios were simulated to determine the impact of the project: (1) existing condition dry
weather flow (DWF) and wet weather flow (WWF) models (including the anticipated flows from the Project)
and (2) buildout condition dry and wet weather flow models (including the anticipated flows from the Project).

Wildcreek Project-Capacity Analysis.docx


1
Memo
Based on calibrated diurnal patterns for typical non-residential developments, the estimated peak dry weather
flow (PDWF) from this development is approximately 0.0530 MGD. Additionally, based on calibrated wet
weather flow parameters determined in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report, the estimated peak
wet weather flow (PWWF) for this development is approximately 0.1100 MGD.

Existing Condition Model Results


Figure 2 compares the d/D modeling results for the sewer system between the existing condition scenario and
the existing condition plus the proposed development scenario to determine the potential downstream capacity
impacts from the development. The existing condition plus the proposed development scenario includes the
estimated ADWF of 0.0392 MGD from the Project in the model simulation. The criteria used to evaluate the
sewer system are listed in Table 4-6 of the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report.

As shown in Figure 2, the d/D results for the existing condition reveal inadequate capacity downstream of the
proposed project site, resulting in approximately 2,800 linear feet of DWF/WWF criteria violations in the 18th
Street and Tyler Way sewer systems. Additional DWF/WWF d/D criteria violations are identified further
downstream in the Greenbrae system (approximately 7,000 linear feet). Therefore, the downstream sewer
system is already deficient in the current state. The added 0.0392 MGD from the proposed development further
exacerbates the existing condition criteria violations in the downstream system.

Buildout Condition Model Results


Figure 3 compares the d/D modeling results for the sewer system between the original buildout condition
scenario and the buildout condition with the proposed development scenario to determine the potential future
downstream capacity impacts from the development. The criteria used to evaluate the sewer system are listed
in Table 4-6 of the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report.

Similarly to the existing condition scenario and as shown in Figure 3, wastewater flows from the proposed
development results in d/D values exceeding both the DWF and WWF criteria. Approximately 2,800 linear feet
of DWF/WWF criteria violations are shown in the 18th Street and Tyler Way sewer systems. Additional
DWF/WWF d/D criteria violations are identified further downstream in the Greenbrae system (approximately
8,500 linear feet). The 0.0392 additional MGD from the proposed development further exacerbates the buildout
condition criteria violations in the downstream system, as well as causes approximately 675 linear feet of new
WWF criteria violations in three 8-inch diameter conduits (SSL019613, SSL019619 and SSL019621) located
within the Wild Creek Golf Course.

Conclusions
The criteria violations noted in all scenarios are primarily due to existing sewer capacity deficiencies in the
18th Street, Tyler Way and Greenbrae sewer systems. In order to satisfy criteria in this stretch of the sewer
system, the City will need to construct the following existing condition deficiency CIPs (from Table 5-2 of the
2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report) prior to upstream development:
• CIP 1 (see Figure 5-2 in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report): CIP 1 includes installing
new and upsizing the existing sewer in El Rancho Drive to 12-inch and 15-inch PVC and ultimately
connecting a new system to the Reno Sparks Joint Interceptor near G Street. Included in this CIP is
the abandonment of the connection between the El Rancho sewer system and the Greenbrae sewer
system, which alleviates pressure on the downstream Greenbrae system and ultimately reduces the
number of CIP improvements required in the Greenbrae system. Although this CIP is technically not
downstream of the proposed development, it is required to help reduce CIPs and free up capacity in
the sewer system downstream of the proposed development. This CIP is estimated at approximately
$1,477,810.
• CIP 2 (see Figure 5-2 in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report): CIP 2 includes upsizing
the 18th Street and Tyler Way sewers to 15-inch PVC. This CIP is estimated at approximately
$871,640.
• CIP 3 (see Figure 5-4 in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report): CIP 3 includes upsizing
the Quail Street, and Boise Drive sewers to 24-inch PVC. The abandonment of the connection to the
Probasco Way sewer system is also included in this CIP to alleviate pressure on the Probasco system
and reduces the magnitude of improvements required in the downstream portions of the Probasco
system. This CIP is estimated at approximately $888,235.
• CIP 4 (see Figure 5-4 in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report): CIP 4 includes upsizing
the Prater Way sewer to 15-inch or 18-inch PVC and upsizing the N McCarran Boulevard sewer to 30-
inch PVC. This CIP is estimated at approximately $1,974,105.

Memo
Note that CIPs listed above and in the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report are at the planning level
stage and require thorough engineering design to determine more accurate costs, alignments and other design
components. The combination of these four CIPs should resolve all the existing condition CIPs for the system
downstream of the development. Overall, the sewer system in this area is the most critical, in terms of the
magnitude of existing condition deficiencies, for the entire Sparks system.

In the buildout scenario, CIPs 17 and 19 (see Figure 5-12 and Figure 5-13, respectively, in the 2016 Sewer
Model Update Technical Report) are also proposed for this region, however this proposed development alone
would not trigger either of those CIPs. Adding the proposed development to all previously identified buildout
development would trigger the additional 675 feet of buildout WWF criteria violations noted in the 8-inch
diameter pipes (SSL019613, SSL019619 and SSL019621) and require the following additional improvements
to the City sewer system to meet WWF criteria:
• Upsize approximately 2,750 linear feet of 8-inch diameter pipe from manholes SSN029855 to
SSN002486 (see Figure 1) to 10-inch diameter
Another consideration is the impact of added buildout development on the treatment capacity at TMWRF.
Section 3.5 of the 2016 Sewer Model Update Technical Report states that under the current wastewater flow
projections, the “City is expected to exceed their designated treatment capacity by 1.77 mgd in the buildout
condition.” This project increases wastewater flows by 0.0392 MGD over the currently projected wastewater
flows from this parcel, therefore adding further stress to the City’s TMWRF treatment capacity allocation.

Attn: Adam Searcy
10401 Old Virginia Rd.
Reno NV, 89521

Re: Discovery for APN: 027-011-05 & 035-080-04, Proposed Wildcreek High School
The purpose of this Level-One Discovery is to determine off-site capacity, and estimated “ballpark”
costs necessary to serve the proposed building site near McCarran Boulevard and Sullivan Lane with
electric and gas services. The loads and information used for the basis of this Discovery are based on
the assumptions listed.

Customer Assumptions

 The site is located at the intersection for McCarran Boulevard and Sullivan Lane
 The project is approximately 330.72 acres consisting of 400,000 square foot high school, 22,500
square foot field house and sports fields.
 This Discovery is for the possibility of installing electric and gas facilities to serve the entire
project.

General Assumptions

 Facility requirements and costs represent preliminary planning level estimates that are based on the
best information today, and are subject to change. All costs are estimated in 2017 dollars. Actual
detailed design, sizing, and cost estimates will be determined once final plans are submitted to NV
Energy (NVE) and a Utility Facility Agreement is entered into.
 The project owner will grant any easements/right-of-way required to provide service within the
project boundaries.
 Design and cost estimates are predicated on easements, permits, and right-of-ways being acquired
for all facilities outside of the project boundaries at no cost to NVE.
 Off-Site capacity cannot be reserved in advance. Capacity is available on a first-come, first-serve
basis, confirmed with a signed utility agreement with NV Energy. If future system demands exceed
the available capacity, this project could be subject to participation in further system improvements.
 The information presented in this document is based on the current Rules, Tariffs, and Regulations
that are in effect at this time. These are subject to change by the Public Utility Commission of
Nevada, as they deem appropriate. Such changes could affect the estimates and other information
provided.
 Footage calculations are estimates. Actual footage will affect the costs.

Page 1 of 6
 The applicant is responsible to furnish and install all trenching/backfill, vaults, pads, boxes, conduit,
permits, etc. necessary to complete the substructure per NVE Standards Volume 17.
 A contingency factor may be required if the project meets the criteria for True-Up as defined by
Rule 9 section A.31.

Electric Assumptions

 The project will consist of three-phase power requirements.


 There are no special needs such as redundancy or voltage sensitive customers. (ie: hospital, data
Center)
 All electric facilities within the 330.72 acre site will be underground.
 Street lights are not included.
 General Service meters which may include those installed for street lights, irrigation clocks and
valves, gates, and signs are not included.
 The exact route will depend on final building layouts and the electrical panel locations.
 Each 200 Amp single-phase primary extension will require a minimum of 1-3 inch conduit to be
installed from a new underground vault location.
 Each 200 Amp three-phase primary extension will require a minimum of 1-4 inch conduit to be
installed from a new underground switch location.
 These assumptions do not take into account the effects of site topography.
 These assumptions do not include removal or relocation of existing facilities.
 The project consists of the following area types:
 The building’s total load will not exceed 4,000 amps per unit at three-phase voltage.

On Site Electric Requirements


The applicant is responsible for on-site non-refundable costs for trenching, backfill, permits, conduit,
vaults, transformer pads, etc., which are the customer’s sole responsibility to furnish and install per NV
Energy’s design and Volume 17 specifications.

A high level estimate is based on the average cost for single family and multi-family developments.

The estimated unit cost to provide electric service to the high school site:
Item Unit Cost
High School Main Building 1 $70,000
Field House 1 $20,000
Sports Field Lighting 1 $15,000
Backbone:
Underground Cable – 3-1/0 1,200 foot $60,000

The estimated cost of providing electrical service includes a 20% contingency. Each project phase will
be represented by a Rule 9 Line Extension Agreement (LEA) that includes the total cost responsibility
and potential refundable balance per project phase. The applicant will be responsible for trenching and
backfill costs. Any pavement breaking and repair are the customer’s sole responsibility. In addition to
the above mentioned costs, the developer is also responsible for any taxes due.

Page 2 of 6
As stated in Rule 9, Appendix 3, the allowance provided for the following line extensions is:
Area Type Allowance/Meter Number of Meters Total Allowance
GS2-TOU Medium $188/kVa 1 $169,200 estimated
Commercial

NV Energy may apply 30% of the total meter allowance to the total project cost. The initial allowance
will offset the advance due for each project. The remaining allowance will be issued in the form of a
refund. Projects are reviewed annually to determine the number of new units/meter that come on line.
Refunds associated to the applicable meter/units on-line are issued on the anniversary of the contract
execution date for the life of the agreement.

Please keep in mind that all transformers must be installed with a minimum of 10 feet of
clearance in any direction from any combustible building surface and a minimum of 3 feet of
clearance in any direction from any non-combustible building surface with a 10 foot long by the
pad width, flat level surface in front. Please refer to NV Energy Constructions Standards, Vol. 17
at
https://www.nvenergy.com/business/newconstruction/newconstructionN/standards/electric_standards/vol_17.cf

Off Site Electric Requirements


Note:
Currently there is capacity to serve the proposed project. However, pursuant to PUCN tariff Rule 9,
capacity cannot be reserved for this project until a binding design and formal agreement are in place. At
that time, requirements to serve will be reevaluated, and may be different.

Minimum Requirements

None – The existing overhead power line along the east side of Sullivan Lane could be used as a
possible tie point for the electric.

Preliminary site development plans are used for this discussion. The following is provided to the
customer for informative purposes only, based upon similar existing developments. Site layout, project
planning, construction scheduling, and many other factors influence ultimate electrical delivery
requirements and costs. As such, no guarantees whatsoever are implied regarding on-site requirements.

High Voltage Distribution/Transmission Requirements


None

Taxes
The applicant is also responsible for any taxes due. The current electric tax rate is 14.1%. NV Energy
will give the applicant a construction allowance based on the anticipated demand as shown on the final
plans submitted for design. The applicant is also required to pay the non-refundable CIAC taxes due for
the substructures.

Page 3 of 6
Average gross up tax rate for electric ranges between 28%-34%. Currently, congress has approved a
bonus depreciation through 2019*. The following table shows the bonus depreciation reduction by year.

*Any changes to bonus depreciation approved by Congress after this date may impact these tax
percentages.

Gas Assumptions

Preliminary site development plans are used for this discussion. The following is provided to the
customer for informative purposes only, based upon similar existing developments. Site layout, project
planning, construction scheduling, and many other factors influence ultimate natural gas delivery
requirements and costs. As such, no guarantees whatsoever are implied regarding on-site requirements.

For each of the following area types:


 On-site gas mains will be placed within proposed streets.
 Commercial – Due to lack of information, unable to assume gas load.
 These assumptions do not take into account the effects of site topography.
 These assumptions do not include removal or relocation of existing facilities.

On Site Gas Main Requirements


Currently, there is limited capacity to serve the proposed project. Since the meter locations are not
known at this time, the actual design, and routing of the gas services will be determined at the time of
application.

The estimated unit cost to provide gas service to the potential high school site:
Item Unit Cost
Commercial 1 Unknown
4” PE Main 450 feet $6,750

The estimated cost of providing gas service includes a 20% contingency. Each project phase will be
represented by a Rule 9 Line Extension Agreement (LEA) that includes the total cost responsibility and
potential refundable balance per project phase. The applicant will be responsible for trenching and
backfill costs, and any pavement breaking and repair, with are the customer’s sole responsibility.

As stated in Gas Rule 9, Section D, the allowance provided for single family residential gas extensions
is two (2.0) times the estimated annual revenue for each unit. NV Energy may apply 30% of the total

Page 4 of 6
allowance to the initial project advance for each application, with the remaining advance amount being
refunded over the following ten years, as gas meters come on line.

The allowance provided for the following line extensions cannot be estimated at this time due to lack of
information.

The applicant is responsible for on-site non-refundable costs for trenching, backfill, permits, pipe, etc.,
which are the customer’s sole responsibility to furnish and install per NV Energy’s design and Volume
15 specifications.

Off Site Gas Main Requirements


The possible source of gas service would be to tap the gas main in Wedekind Road to provide service
within the potential high school site.

The applicant is responsible for off-site non-refundable costs for trenching, backfill, permits, pipe, etc.,
which are the customer’s sole responsibility to furnish and install per NV Energy’s design and Volume
15 specifications.

Upstream Requirements
Approximately 750’ of 4” PE gas main would need to be installed in Wedekind Road to support the gas
load of the proposed high school. There would also need to be a few sections of gas main installed in
Oddie Boulevard to assist the supply. All upstream improvements are required to be installed before the
fall of the year that the new school would take service.

Total costs and proportionate cost responsibility cannot be determined without additional detail and
analysis. Regardless of cost responsibility the applicant will be responsible for performing the work
associated with the upstream improvements.

The estimated cost of providing gas main will consist of:


Item Unit Cost
4” PE Main 750 feet $11,250

Preliminary site development plans are used for this discussion. The following is provided to the
customer for informative purposes only, based upon similar existing developments. Site layout, project
planning, construction scheduling, and many other factors influence ultimate gas delivery requirements

Re: High School Campus at Wildcreek Due Diligence Services


Task 5.4 - Preliminary FAA Airspace Review

Dear Adam:

The following letter outlines the conclusions derived from the Preliminary Airspace Review conducted as
part of the potential High School at Wildcreek due diligence studies. The existing Wildcreek property
consists of 330.7± acres within the City of Sparks approximately 3 miles north of the Reno-Tahoe
International Airport. North McCarran Boulevard borders the site to the south, Sullivan Lane borders the
site on the west, with single family residential bordering the site on the east. The potential development of
the site includes a high school campus with associated educational building, athletic facilities, parking and
necessary landscaping and drainage facilities. As part of this due diligence review, a preliminary FAA
Airspace Review, Aircraft Noise analysis and Site Lighting analyses were completed.

FAA Airspace Review

The proposed campus will be located within (3) three nautical miles of the Reno-Tahoe International
Airport (RNO) and under the approach/departure paths for Runways 16L-34R and 16R-34L. Due to the
proximity of the site to the RNO, any potential development must comply with Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (Aeronautics and Space) Part 77 (Safe, Efficient Use, and Preservation of the Navigable
Airspace) requirements, otherwise known as Part 77.

Part 77 establishes requirements to notify the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of certain proposed
constructions and alterations, the standards to determine obstructions in relation to air navigation and
navigational and communications facilities, and the process to study obstructions and their effect on the
safe and efficient use of navigable airspace, facilities, and equipment. The FAA notification process allows
the FAA, which controls airspace, to evaluate the effect of a proposed construction or alteration on safety in
air commerce, on the efficient use and preservation of the navigable airspace, and on airport traffic capacity
at public use airports. In addition, this process determines whether the effect is a hazard to air navigation,
whether there are appropriate measures to be applied for the continued safety of air navigation, whether the
aviation community must be notified about objects affecting navigable airspace, and whether navigational
charts require updating.

Corporate Office: 3301 C Street, Bldg. 100-B • Sacramento, CA 95816 • 916.341.7760 • Fax: 916.341.7767
Reno Office: 1361 Corporate Boulevard, Reno, NV 89502 • 775.823.4068 • Fax: 775.823.4066
www.woodrodgers.com
Part 77 consists of (5) five imaginary surfaces (horizontal, conical, primary, approach, and transitional) that
protect the airspace around airports. An object, such as any natural growth (foliage), terrain, or structure
(permanent or temporary) which penetrates the elevation of any of the referenced surfaces requires formal
notification to the FAA. In addition to the Part 77 surfaces, the FAA notification requirement for the
proposed campus is triggered if an object will exceed 200 feet above ground level at the site or if an object
will exceed a surface extending outward and upward at a slope of 100:1 for a horizontal distance of 20,000
feet from the nearest point of the nearest runway. The FAA notification requirement allows the FAA to
further study any penetration and determine whether or not it creates an obstruction which may pose a
hazard to air navigation. The FAA notification requirement is met by the timely filing of an FAA Form
7460-1, Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration.

Based on proximity to the airport, the potential development lies underneath the Part 77 approach surface
of RNO. The approach surface is centered longitudinally on the runway centerline and extends outward and
upward from the runway end at a 50:1 slope for 10,000 feet with an additional 40:1 slope for 40,000 feet.
The 2011 Airport Layout Plan (ALP) for RNO was utilized to establish the vertical and horizontal location
of the runway ends from where the surface is referenced. The Part 77 approach surface contours shown on
Figure 1 represent the developable elevation at any point within the proposed site before penetration of the
Part 77 approach surface. Any structure that exceeds the elevation of the approach surface should be
considered a penetration and will require evaluation by the FAA to determine whether or not the
penetration is also an obstruction.

In addition to verifying the Part 77 approach surface, the Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority (RTAA) requires
the One-Engine Inoperative (OEI) departure surface be maintained without obstruction. The OEI surface is
centered longitudinally on the runway centerline and extends outward and upward from the runway end at a
62.5:1 slope for 50,000 feet. Per the 2011 RTIA ALP, Runways 34L and 34R do not include a clearway;
therefore, the OEI surface was determined from the runway end. The OEI surface contours shown on
Figure 2 represent the developable elevation at any point within the proposed site before penetration of the
OEI surface. Although the OEI surface is the control surface setting the projected maximum structure
elevation within the proposed development, the 100:1 surface is the elevation triggering FAA notification
requirement.

Based on our review of RTAA and FAA airspace requirements the site can be developed without creating
an airspace surface obstruction. Building height(s) and site/athletic lighting should be monitored during
final design to ensure all proposed structures maximum elevation are below the OEI surface and any
planned structures exceeding the 100:1 surface should be included in an FAA notification prior to
construction. The maximum developable building elevations are shown in Figure 2 and vary throughout
the site. Final allowable building heights will vary depending on location on the site and proposed finish
grade elevations; however, a structure height of 150’ or less can be constructed (from existing ground
elevation) without creating an airspace obstruction regardless of location on the site. It should be noted that
the maximum developable elevation is determined from the OEI surface regardless of site grading.

Reno-Tahoe International Airport Noise Exposure

RNO noise contours were reviewed in relation to the project site to determine if noise mitigation would be
required as part of the potential development. Based on the FAA-approved noise contours for RNO, the

SUBJECT: Approve a Water fughts Deed conveying title to 506.784 acre feet of
Wells Creek water rights under permit 78563, and 69 .20 acre feet of
Truckee River water.ightr under permit 78564 from Washoe County to
the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority (RSCVA); and,
authorize the Truckee Meadows Water Authority to credit any potential
excess water rights resulting from a possible water consumption audit at
the Re,no Sparks Conve,ntion Center to the RSCVA for their future use
within the region. (All Commission Districts.)

ST}MMARY
RSCVA, a political subdivision of Washoe County, State of Nevada operates certain
fasilities within the Truckee Meadows metropolitan area. Water rights for these facilities
were historically held by Washoe County in trust and for the benefit of the RSCVA.
RSCVA requests conveyance of the water rights under two water rights permits (78563
afi78564) currently utilized to augment treated effluent service for irrigation purposes at
the Wildcreek Golf Course Qetter attached).

RSCVA water rights fall into three general categories: 1) those water rights commiued to
and associated with facilities receiving domestic/potable water supply from the Truckee
Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) such as the National Bowling Stadium, the Reno
Sparks Convention Center, and the Reno Sparks Livestock and Events Center; 2) water
rights associated with the Wildcreek Golf Course currently in operation; and 3) water
rights associated with the now closed Northgate Golf Course (Norttrgate). Research by
both County and RSCVA staffhave established that the sources of funding for all the
water rights subject to this request were RSCVA funded, and any water rights funded by
Washoe County general fund is not the subject of this agenda item and are not affected by
this request and rsmain assets of Washoe County.

The request herein pertain to the categories I anrd2 above. During meetings with
RSCVA, County staffwas informed that water rights dedicated to support the
Convention Center expansion in 2001 may exceed the actual average annual consumption
at the Center. TMWA's Rule 7 tariffallows audits within certain customer categories

and excess dedications may be credited back. RSCVA requests that if any excess water
rights are established, that theybe credited to RSCVA's future use, and not to Washoe
County, the entity that deeded the water rights to TMWA.

Washoe County Strategic Objective supported by this itern: Sustainability of our


financial, social and natural resources.

PREVIOUS ACTION
There has been no previous action taken by the Board of Cor:nty Commissioners (Board)
regarding the subject water rights.

On Jnne 24,2008, the Board approved an Interlocal agreement between Washoe County
and the RSCVA regarding the Northgate Golf Course water rights. This agree,rnent and
staffreport reference research conducted by County staffwhich acknowledged RSCVA
funding sources for the water rights.

BACKGROT]ND
On Jnne 24,2008 the Board reviewed, discussed and approved an interlocal agreement
between Washoe County and RSCVA. This agreement was executed in anticipation of
the closure of Northgate. Until that date, title to all RSCVA water rights were held by
Washoe County, on behalf of and for the benefit of RSCVA facilities. The review of
Northgate and its financial disposition and its future operation as a RSCVA golf course,
caused staffto review the archives and history of the funding sources for the water rights
both at Northgate and Wildsreek golf courses. As acknowledged in both the 2008 staff
report and the Interlocal agreeme,nt, some of the waterrights were acquired with RSCVA
funds and some were acquired with Washoe County general fund or some were simply
allocated to RSCVA projects from County inventory of existing water rights assets. The
2008 staffreport prepared by the County Manager's office states:

"The attached Interlocal Agreement between Washoe County and the RSCVA
acknowledges that RSCVA funds were used to purchase 255.20 acre-feet of water
rights at Northgate Golf Course (NGC). As such, the agreement states that should
RSCVA elect to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the 255.20 acre-feet of water
rights Washoe County has no claim to any revenue realized from a lease, sale or
disposal of these rights. Washoe County maintains ownership of the remaining
210.80 acre-feet of water rights located at NGC."

Pursuant to this Agreemurt, the water rights were conveyed to the Nevada Land
Conse,nrancy and were held in trust for both Washoe County and RSCVA. Since the
approval of the Interlocal Agreement in 2008, RSCVA and Washoe Countyhave both
received title back to their respective blocks of water rights from the Nevada Land
Consenrancy (aka Nevada Land Trust) per Water Rights Deeds recorded under
Documents #4276872 and3854720 in the Office of the Washoe County Recorder.

Wildcreek water rishts:


The water resources at Wildcreek consist of treated effIuent supply from the City of
Sparks, 69.20 acre feet of Truckee River water rights under permit 78564, and 506.784
acre feet of water rights from the Wells Creek. There is clear evidence that the 69.20
Washoe County Commission Meeting of July 22,2014
Page 3 of3

asre-feet of Truckee River water rights were purchased with RSCVA funds in July 1987.
Wells Creek is best described in a March 12,1987,letter from Washoe County
Hydrogeologist, Michael Widmer, to the Nevada State Engineer. Wells Creek is not a
tributary to the Truckee River and is not part of the decreed water rights under the Orr
Ditch Decree. Wells Creek can be best characteizel as a discharge of storm water runoff
from Sun Valley and ground water discharges originating from septic tank recharge also
occurring in Sun Valley. This water resource has no other potential utility other than
irrigation use at the Wildcreek golf course. Neither RSCVA nor County funds were used
for acquisition of this water right. This water right was simply appropriated from the
State of Nevada in October of 1982 by the County staffwith the place of use being
described as the Wildcreek Golf Course. The written request from RSCVA is in regard
to the two water rights permits (78563 and 78564) curre,ntly utilized to augment treated
effluent service at Wild creek Golf Course.

During meetings with RSCVA, County staffwas informed that water rights dedicated to
support the Convention Center expansion in 2001 may exceed the actual average annual
consumption at the Center. TMWA's Rule 7 tariffallows audits within certain customer
categories and excess water rights dedications may be credited back. RSCVA requests
that if any excess waterrights are established, that theybe credited to RSCVA's future
use, and not to Washoe County, the entity that deeded the water rights to TMWA.

Both these requests are consistent with the acknowledgments and actions taken by the
Board in 2008 in relation to the Northgate Golf Course water rights.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

RECOMMEIIDATION
It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve a Water Rights
Deed conveyrng title to 506.784 acre feet of Wells Creek water rights under permit
78563, ard 69.20 acre feet of Truckee River water rights under permit 78564 from
Washoe County to the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority @SCVA); and,
authorize the Truckee Meadows Water Authority to credit any potential excess water
rights resulting from a possible water consumption audit at the Reno Sparks Convention
Center to the RSCVA for their future use within the region.

POSSIBLE MOTION
Should the Board agree with staffs recommendation, a possible motion would be:
"Move to approve a Water Rights Deed conveying title to 506.784 acre feet of Wells
Creek water rights under permit 78563, and 69.20 acre feet of Truckee River water rights
underpermit 78564 from Washoe County to the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitors
Authority (RSCVA); and, authorizethe Truckee Meadows Water Authority to credit any
potential excess water rights resulting from a possible water consumption audit at the
Reno Sparks Convention Center to the RSCVA for their future use within the region."

Subjecf,: Transfer of Water Rights

The Reno-Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority (RSCVA) and Washoe County eonducted
research to confinn the historical funding utilized to pay for water rights assoeiaied with the
Northgate Golf Course and Wildcreek Golf Course. As a result, specific water rights were
purchased with funding from RSCVA and specific water rights were puichased with funding from
Washoe County.

As a result of the Northgate Golf Oourse closure, Washoe eounty conveyed water rights funded
by both RSCVA and Washoe County to the Nevada tand Conservaney to protect the good
standing of these water rights. The Nevada tand Conservancy has since conveyed tfre
Northgate Gotf Course water rights funded by R$CVA and identified under Permit Nos 80501
and 80502 to RENO-SPARKS CONVENTION AND VISITORS AUTHORITY, a politieat

RSCVA funded the purchase of the water rights noted under the permits listed below. These
water right permits are appurtenant to the Wildereek Golf Course. Washoe County is the current
owner of reeord of the Wildcreek Golf Oourse water rights. ln an attempt to consolidate water
rights into their name, RSCVA requests Washoe County to convey thosewater rights funded by

Traffic Evaluation
Traffic Evaluation 
High School at Wildcreek 
November 10, 2017 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 

The proposed High School at Wildcreek would be designed to accommodate up to 2,500 students, include 
a main building of roughly 400,000 square feet, and incorporate the elements of a modern high school 
including a football stadium, soccer fields, baseball and softball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, 
and other related athletic facilities. The urban areas zoned to attend the High School at Wildcreek are 
anticipated to be the current Hug High School zoning district and the entirety of Sun Valley.  

Based on the probable zoning boundaries, the vast majority (estimated at 95%) of travel to and from the 
high school would be north (Sun Valley) and west (present Hug High zone).  Approximately 1,200 of the 
2,500 student population will be from Sun Valley and therefore about 50% of travel would be to/from Sun 
Valley.    It  then  follows  that  45%  of  travel  will  be  to/from  the  current  Hug  High  School  zone  and  the 
remaining 5% will be miscellaneous trips east on McCarran Boulevard associated with staff and deliveries. 
Sullivan Lane, El Rancho Drive, Sun Valley Boulevard, and McCarran Boulevard west of the Wildcreek site, 
would be the most affected roadways.  McCarran Boulevard east of the site, and roadways further east 
from there, would incur only minor traffic increases.  The project study area is illustrated in Figure 1.  

The High School at Wildcreek is expected to be a “closed campus”.  Students will not be permitted to leave 
campus during the lunch hour or between classes, therefore traffic impacts will be limited to the before 
school and after school time periods. 

There are several good options for vehicular access to the Wildcreek site.  Primary access points would 
likely be located on Sullivan Lane and/or at the McCarran Boulevard/Wedekind Road intersection.  It is 
evident  that  high  quality,  high  capacity  intersections  can  be  reasonably  constructed  to  serve  the  high 
school traffic demand.  The various access point options have been considered and discussed with the 
City  of  Sparks  and  Nevada  Department  of  Transportation,  but  no  decisions  have  been  made  at  this 
preliminary investigation stage.  

The following transportation improvements should be anticipated as necessary with the project: 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard:  Convert the existing westbound to northbound right‐turn 
lane to a free right‐turn with a receiving acceleration and merge lane 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane:  Add a channelized right‐turn lane to the westbound approach at 
a minimum, possibly a roundabout or signal depending on the final distribution of traffic 
 Sullivan Lane / North Project Access:  Construct a single‐lane roundabout or other intersection 
improvements 
 Sullivan Lane / South Project Access:  Construct a single‐lane roundabout or other intersection 
improvements 
 McCarran  Boulevard  /  Sullivan  Lane:    Construct  major  intersection  improvements  including 
modifying or adding lanes on the northbound and southbound approaches, lengthening of the 
eastbound left‐turn lane, signal modifications, and signal phasing/timing revisions 

Page 2 of 21
Traffic Evaluation 
High School at Wildcreek 
November 10, 2017 

 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road:  Construct a traffic signal if permitted by NDOT and the 
City of Sparks, OR, construct a median island on McCarran Boulevard limiting traffic movements 
to  right‐in/right‐out/left‐in  access  to/from  both  approaches  of  Wedekind  Road.  The  median 
configuration  would  prohibit  left‐turn  movements  and  through  movements  departing  from 
Wedekind  Road  to  McCarran  Boulevard  to  improve  intersection  safety.    Improvements  at  this 
intersection  would  only  be  needed  if  the  project  were  to  obtain  access  at  McCarran 
Blvd/Wedekind Road. 
 Project  Connection  to  Wedekind  Road:    If  connection  is  made  to  Wedekind  Road,  construct  a 
roundabout or other intersection improvements on Wedekind Road north of McCarran Boulevard 
 Sullivan Lane & McCarran Boulevard Roadways:  Construct sidewalks and bicycle lanes along the 
project frontage(s) 
 Sullivan Lane, El Rancho Drive & McCarran Boulevard Roadways:  Construct sidewalks and bicycle 
lanes at select locations to fill in gaps in the existing walking/cycling infrastructure 
 Public Transit:  Based on RTC input, potentially construct a RTC Ride transit stop on Sullivan Lane 
near the campus entrance.  The RTC may wish to consider changes to Route 15 to better serve 
high school students. 
 Other improvements as identified by future traffic impact studies:  The intersection mitigation 
requirements  may  change  based  on  the  final  site  plan  and  access  configurations.  Additionally, 
reviewing  agencies  may  require  the  evaluation  of  other  intersections,  traffic  scenarios,  or 
transportation aspects.

INTRODUCTION 

This  report  presents  an  overview  of  traffic  volumes  that  would  be  generated  by  a  new  high  school,  a 
summary  of  the  access  and  circulation  elements  needed,  intersection  operations  analysis,  and 
recommendations  for  off‐site  intersection  and  roadway  capacity  improvements  potentially  needed  to 
serve the proposed high school in accordance with established level of service policies.  This study is a 
preliminary  analysis  of  potential  traffic  impacts  and  probable  mitigations  for  the  sole  purpose  of 
investigating the suitability of the Wildcreek site. This document is not intended to serve as the project’s 
formal Traffic Impact Study.  A comprehensive traffic impact study will be prepared when the project site 
plan and access points can be fully defined. 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION 

The proposed high school would be located north of North McCarran Boulevard and east of Sullivan Lane 
at the existing Wildcreek Golf Course property as shown on Figure 1. The approximately 400,000 square 
foot main building would accommodate up to 2,500 students who reside in the current Hug High School 
zoning district and throughout all of Sun Valley. Sun Valley students are currently split into two districts 
with the southern portion zoned for Hug High School and the northern portion zoned for Spanish Springs 
High School. The proposed project would include all typical features of a high school including a football 
stadium, soccer fields, baseball and softball fields, tennis courts, and basketball courts. The initial concept 
for the high school site (subject to significant revision) is shown on Figure 2. 

DATA COLLECTION 

Weekday AM (7:00 AM to 9:00 AM), Afternoon (2:00 PM to 4:00 PM – when school is dismissed), and PM 
(4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) peak period intersection turning movement counts were collected at the following 
intersections (shown on Figure 1): 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane 
 Sullivan Lane / Niblick Drive 
 Sullivan Lane / Green Vista Drive 
 McCarran Boulevard / Sullivan Lane 
 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road 
 McCarran Boulevard / El Rancho Drive 

Lane configuration, traffic control, signal timing, bike lane, sidewalk, and crosswalk information was also 
collected for the study area roadways and intersections.

EXISTING TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES 

Roadway Facilities 

A brief description of the key roadways in the study area is provided below. 

North  McCarran  Boulevard  is  a  four‐lane,  High  Access  Control  (HAC)  Arterial  roadway.    McCarran 
Boulevard is a loop road that surrounds the Reno and Sparks metropolitan area. The posted speed limit 
on  McCarran  Boulevard  near  the  project  area  is  45  mph  west  of  Wedekind  Road  and  35  mph  east  of 
Wedekind  Road.    The  segment  of  McCarran  Blvd  between  El  Rancho  Drive  and  Rock  Boulevard  is 
programmed  to  be  widened  to  six  (6)  lanes  (three  through  lanes  in  each  direction)  in  the  2027‐2040 
timeframe per the 2040 RTP. 

Sullivan Lane is generally a north‐south roadway that extends from El Rancho Drive in the north to Prater 
Way in the south. Near the project site, Sullivan Lane is a two‐lane roadway with a posted speed limit of 
35 mph north of McCarran Boulevard and 25 mph south of McCarran Boulevard. The 2040 RTP classifies 
Sullivan Lane as a Low Access Control (LAC) Arterial. 

Wedekind Road is two‐lane LAC Arterial roadway. It intersects McCarran Boulevard with side‐street stop 
control.  The  speed  limit  on  Wedekind  Road  north/east  of  McCarran  Boulevard  is  30  mph.  South  of 
McCarran Boulevard the posted speed limit is 25 mph.  

El Rancho Drive is generally a north‐south roadway that extends from Sun Valley Boulevard in the north 
to Victorian Avenue in the south. El Rancho Drive is a four‐lane roadway (two lanes in each direction) 
south of McCarran Boulevard, and a three‐lane roadway (one lane in each direction with a two‐way left‐
turn lane) north of McCarran Boulevard. The 2040 RTP classifies El Rancho Drive as a Moderate Access 
Control (MAC) Arterial.  The posted speed limit near the project site is 35 mph.  

Sun Valley Boulevard / Clear Acre Lane is generally a north‐south five‐lane roadway (two lanes in each 
direction  and  a  two‐way  left‐turn  lane).  North  of  El  Rancho  Drive  the  roadway  is  named  Sun  Valley 
Boulevard and south of El Rancho Drive it is named Clear Acre Lane. Sun Valley Boulevard and Clear Acre 
Lane are both classified as MAC Arterials in the 2040 RTP. The posted speed limit on Sun Valley Boulevard 
north of El Rancho Drive is 35 mph. South of El Rancho Drive, the speed limit is 45 mph. 

School Bus Service and Public Transit Facilities 

The current Washoe County School District policy is to provide bus service for students outside a three (3) 
mile radius of the school.  Figure 3 shows a three mile radius in relation to the proposed High School at 
Wildcreek site. A portion of the zoning district in the northern part of Sun Valley would be eligible for bus 
service.

November 10, 2017 

Figure 3 also shows the RTC RIDE fixed transit routes within the vicinity of the contemplated school site.  

Route 2 provides service between 4th Street Station and Centennial Plaza and travels along Greenbrae 
Drive and Rock Boulevard near the project site. Service is provided on 15 to 30 minute headways from 
4:30 AM to approximately 1:45 AM Monday through Friday. Saturday service is provided on 30 minute 
headways from 4:30 AM to approximately 1:45 AM.  Sunday and holiday service is provided on one hour 
headways from approximately 4:30 AM to 1:45 AM. 

Route 2S (short) follows the same route as Route 2 from 4th Street Station, but stops at Rock Boulevard 
and returns to Reno. Service for Route  2S is provided on 15 to 30 minute headways from 4:30 AM to 
approximately 1:45 PM. Weekend and holiday service is not provided. 

Route 5 provides service from 4th Street Station to Sun Valley and travels along Sutro Street, Clear Acre 
Lane, and Sun Valley Boulevard. Route 5 includes two Snow Route detours moving service from Selmi 
Drive and Clear Acre Lane to McCarran Boulevard and El Rancho Drive during inclement weather. The 
second Snow Route detour moves service from 8th Avenue to 7th Avenue in Sun Valley. Service is provided 
Monday through Friday on 30 minute to one hour headways from 5:00 AM to approximately 1:00 AM. 
Weekend and holiday service is provided from 5:15 AM to approximately 1:00 AM on one hour headways. 

Route  15  is  closest  to  the  Wildcreek  site  as  it  traverses  through  the  El  Rancho  Drive/Sullivan  Lane 
intersection just north of the site.  It provides service between 4th Street Station and Truckee Meadows 
Community College (TMCC) and travels along Sutro Street, Wedekind Road, El Rancho Drive, and Dandini 
Boulevard.  Service is provided on 30 minute to one hour headways from 5:45 AM to approximately 11:30 
PM  Monday  through  Friday.  Weekend  and  holiday  service  is  provided  on  one  hour  headways,  with 
Saturday  service  from  5:45  AM  to  approximately  11:30  PM,  and  Sunday  and  holiday  service  from 
approximately 5:45 AM to approximately 10:30 PM. 

The Wildcreek site is generally served by public transit (Routes 5 and 15 in particular).  Service for a high 
school  could  potentially  be  significantly  improved  by  moving  Route  15  to  Sullivan  Lane  instead  of  El 
Rancho Drive.  Such a decision would have to be made by the Regional Transportation Commission based 
on overall ridership demand and other factors. 

Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities 

Bicycle and pedestrian facilities including bicycle lanes and sidewalks exist sporadically within the project 
vicinity. Figure 4 shows the current gaps in the bicycle and pedestrian network near the project site.  

Bike lanes exist on McCarran Boulevard, El Rancho Drive, and Clear Acre Lane, and on Sun Valley Boulevard 
between 2nd Avenue and 7th Avenue. There are currently no bike lanes on Sullivan Lane, Wedekind Road, 
or on Sun Valley Boulevard between El Rancho Drive and 2nd Avenue. 

Sidewalk  facilities  in  the  project  area  also  have  gaps.    There  are  no  sidewalks  along  the  north  side  of 
McCarran Boulevard adjacent to the project site. The south side of McCarran Boulevard has an asphalt

walking path from Sullivan Lane to Wedekind Road. Sullivan Lane has sidewalk along its west side from 
McCarran Boulevard to El Rancho Drive. Sidewalks exist on both side of El Rancho Drive from McCarran 
Boulevard to Wildcreek Drive, and along the west side from Wildcreek Drive to Sullivan Lane and from 
Maynard Way to Sun Valley Boulevard. Clear Acre Lane and Sun Valley Boulevard have short sections of 
noncontiguous  sidewalk  throughout  most  of  their  lengths.  There  are  no  sidewalks  on  Wedekind  Road 
north/east of McCarran Boulevard. 

TRAFFIC ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY 

Level of service (LOS) is a term commonly used by transportation practitioners to measure and describe 
the operational characteristics of intersections, roadway segments, and other facilities.  For intersection 
analysis, this term equates seconds of delay per vehicle at the intersection to letter grades “A” through 
“F” with “A” representing optimum conditions and “F” representing breakdown or over capacity flows.   

The complete methodology is established in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2010, published by the 
Transportation Research Board (TRB).  Table 1 presents the delay thresholds for each level of service grade 
at signalized and unsignalized intersections.

Level of Service Policy 

The Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) published 2040 Regional Transportation Plan (2040 RTP) 
establishes level of service criteria for regional roadway facilities in the City of Reno, City of Sparks, and 
Washoe County. The current Level of Service policy is: 

“All regional roadway facilities projected to carry less than 27,000 ADT at the latest RTP horizon – LOS 
D or better.” 

“All regional roadway facilities projected to carry 27,000 or more ADT at the latest RTP horizon – LOS 
E or better.” 

“All intersections shall be designed to provide a level of service consistent with maintaining the policy 
level of service of the intersecting corridors”. 

Where intersections are already experiencing level of service beyond the thresholds, conditions should 
not be exacerbated. In practice, this is commonly interpreted as not increasing average delay per vehicle 
by more than 5 seconds. 

The following LOS thresholds were used for this study based on the above regional policies: 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard – LOS E 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane – LOS D 
 Sullivan Lane / Niblick Drive – LOS D 
 Sullivan Lane / Green Vista Drive – LOS D 
 McCarran Boulevard / Sullivan Lane – LOS E 
 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road – LOS E 
 McCarran Boulevard / El Rancho Drive – LOS E 
 

EXISTING TRAFFIC OPERATIONS 

Existing conditions intersection level of service analysis was performed for the study intersections using 
Synchro  9  analysis  software,  with  reporting  for  unsignalized  intersections  based  on  HCM  2010  and 
reporting for signalized intersections based on HCM 2000 methodology. HCM 2010 software does not 
enable analysis of signalized intersections with shared through/turn lanes and exclusive turn lanes on the 
same  approach.  For  consistency  between  analysis  scenarios,  HCM  2000  reporting  was  used  for  all 
signalized intersections.  

The existing intersection lane configurations and traffic controls are shown on Figure 5 and the existing 
traffic volumes are shown on Figure 6.  Table 2 shows the existing level of service results for the studied 
intersections.

PROJECT TRIP GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION 

Trip Generation 

Trip  generation  rates  from  the  Trip  Generation  Manual,  9th  Edition  published  by  the  Institute  of 
Transportation  Engineers  (ITE)  were  used  to  develop  trip  generation  estimates  for  the  proposed  high 
school. Table 3 shows the trip generation estimates for the AM, Afternoon (dismissal peak period), and 
PM peak hours.

Notes:  
1. Trips were calculated based on the following rates per student: Daily – 1.71; AM – 0.43 (68% in / 32% out); Afternoon – 
0.29 (33% in / 67% out); PM – 0.13 (47% in / 53% out) 
2. The afternoon peak period is 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. 
Source:  Traffic Works, 2017 

As shown in the table, the proposed high school would generate approximately 4,275 daily trips, 1,075 
AM, 725 Afternoon, and 325 PM peak hour trips based on an enrollment capacity of 2,500 students. 

The  trip  generation  rates  inherently  consider  the  various  travel  modes  to  and  from  the  high  school 
including walking, bicycling, and bus ridership. Therefore, no trip rate reductions were applied for the use 
of alternate travel modes. 

With this volume of traffic generated, the project would not be considered “regionally significant” based 
on traffic volumes. 

Trip Distribution 

The distribution of trips to the adjacent roadway network was determined based on the probable school 
zoning (encompassing all of Sun Valley and the current Hug High School zone). Project trips are anticipated 
to be distributed as follows and shown on Figure 7: 

 45% to/from the north via Sun Valley Boulevard 
 5% to/from the northwest via Dandini Boulevard and Clear Acre Lane 
 30% to/from the west and south via El Rancho Drive, Sullivan Lane, and Wedekind Road 
 15% to/from the west via N. McCarran Boulevard 
 5% to/from the east via N. McCarran Boulevard

ACCESS OPTIONS, TRAFFIC OPERATIONS, & REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS 

There are several good options for vehicular access to the Wildcreek site.  Primary access points would 
likely be located on Sullivan Lane and/or at the McCarran Boulevard/Wedekind Road intersection.  It is 
evident  that  high  quality,  high  capacity  intersections  can  be  reasonably  constructed  to  serve  the  high 
school traffic demand.  The various access point options have been considered and discussed with the 
City  of  Sparks  and  Nevada  Department  of  Transportation,  but  no  decisions  have  been  made  at  this 
preliminary investigation stage.  

Two overall access alternatives for the High School at Wildcreek were considered and are analyzed in this 
report  to  determine  the  level  of  intersection  and  roadway  improvements  that  would  be  necessary  to 
accommodate a new high school at the subject site.  Again, these access alternatives are very preliminary 
concepts only for the purpose of investigating the types and magnitude of off‐site improvements that 
should be anticipated.  

Wedekind Traffic Signal Scenario 

The  access  scenario  shown  on  Figure  8  assumes  that  a  new  traffic  signal  could  be  constructed  at  the 
McCarran Blvd/Wedekind Rd intersection and that this improved connection of the site to McCarran Blvd 
would serve  as a primary  access for  the high school.   A second access  point  would be  constructed on 
Sullivan Lane potentially opposite Green Vista Drive.  This alternative contemplates a third minor access 
point on Sullivan Lane potentially opposite Niblick Drive.  The access intersections are assumed to consist 
of the following configurations: 

 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road – signalize intersection and allow all movements 
 A  roundabout  is  contemplated  north  of  the  McCarran  Blvd/Wedekind  Rd  intersection  to 
better tie Wedekind Road to the project site 
 Sullivan Lane / Green Vista Drive – signalize intersection, add a southbound left‐turn pocket 
on Sullivan Lane, and modify the westbound approach to include a left and a through/right‐
turn lane from the project site 
 Sullivan Lane / Niblick Drive – Side‐street stop control on project access approach 
 
The intersection turning movement volumes for this scenario are shown on Figure 9. 

Through  the  course  of  the  analysis  it  was  determined  that  other  intersection  capacity  improvements 
would  be  needed  with  this  access  scenario  to  provide  acceptable  levels  of  service  at  each  study 
intersection.  The additional off‐site improvements are: 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard:  Convert the existing westbound to northbound right‐turn 
lane to a free right‐turn with a receiving acceleration and merge lane 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane:  Add a channelized right‐turn lane to the westbound approach at 
a minimum, possibly a roundabout or signal depending on the final distribution of traffic

 McCarran  Boulevard  /  Sullivan  Lane:    Construct  major  intersection  improvements  including 


modifying or adding lanes on the northbound and southbound approaches, lengthening of the

As shown in the table, all the studied intersections are expected to operate at acceptable levels of service 
under Existing Plus Project conditions with the prior listed improvements. 

The City of Sparks has expressed concern over this alternative due to the construction of two new traffic 
signals and their close spacing to other existing traffic signals.  The City may not support the Wedekind

Traffic Signal access scenario.   Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) staff are not necessarily 
opposed  to  the  traffic  signal  alternative,  but  have  not  rendered  an  official  opinion.    NDOT  staff  have 
suggested that traffic signal systems may be under consideration at Wedekind Road based on the need 
for signalized pedestrian crossing of McCarran Boulevard and pedestrian safety concerns.  At this time it 
is unclear if a traffic signal would be approved at Wedekind Road, therefore other access options should 
be considered. 

Sullivan Lane Primary Access Scenario 

The access alternative shown on Figure 10 contemplates primary access for the high school on Sullivan 
Lane and an intentional division of the high school traffic between two new roundabouts on Sullivan Lane.  
Under this scenario, a connection may or may not be made to Wedekind Road.  If connection were made 
to Wedekind Road, the McCarran Blvd/Wedekind Road intersection would likely need to be reconfigured 
for a safer design with increased traffic volumes.  The access intersections are assumed to include the 
following configurations: 

 Sullivan Lane / Niblick Drive – single‐lane roundabout with a shared left/through/right lane 
on all four approaches 
 Sullivan Lane / Green Vista Drive – single‐lane roundabout with a shared left/through/right 
lane on all four approaches 
 A  roundabout  is  contemplated  north  of  the  McCarran  Blvd/Wedekind  Rd  intersection  to 
better tie Wedekind Road to the project site 
 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road – side‐street stop control with right‐in/right‐out/left‐
in  access  to  Wedekind  Road.  The  intersection  configuration  would  not  allow  left‐turn 
movements  from  Wedekind  Road  to  McCarran  Boulevard,  or  through  movements  on 
Wedekind Road across McCarran Boulevard. 
 
The intersection turning movement volumes for this scenario are shown on Figure 11. 

Other off‐site intersection capacity improvements needed for acceptable level of service are: 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard:  Convert the existing westbound to northbound right‐turn 
lane to a free right‐turn with a receiving acceleration and merge lane 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane:  Add a channelized right‐turn lane to the westbound approach at 
a minimum, possibly a roundabout or signal depending on the final distribution of traffic 
 McCarran  Boulevard  /  Sullivan  Lane:    Construct  major  intersection  improvements  including 
modifying and adding lanes on the northbound and southbound approaches, lengthening of the 
eastbound left‐turn lane, signal modifications, and signal phasing/timing revisions

FUTURE YEAR (2040) CONDITIONS 

Planned Regional Roadway Improvements 

The 2040 RTP outlines programmed roadway projects of regional significance. The project list is split into 
three time periods: 2017 – 2021 (first five years of the plan), 2022 – 2026 (second five years of the plan), 
and 2027 – 2040 (remaining years of the plan). The following roadway projects are programmed within 
the project vicinity. 

Note that the Pyramid Highway/Sun Valley/US 395 Connector (listed in italics below) is not included in 
this traffic analysis to ensure a conservative analysis. Construction of that new roadway would reduce 
traffic  volumes  on  McCarran  Boulevard  adjacent  to  the  project  site.    Therefore  project  effects  and 
improvements would be less than described in this report. This 2040 Conditions analysis presents a worst 
case scenario, assuming higher background traffic volumes near the proposed high school. 

RTP Regional Road Improvements (2017‐2021)

Boulevard: New 6 lane arterial from US 395 to West Sun Valley; New 4 lane arterial from West 
Sun Valley to Pyramid Way 
 Pyramid  Highway/Sun  Valley/US  395  Connector  Phase  3  –  Widen  Disc  Drive  from  Pyramid 
Highway to Vista Boulevard from 4 to 6 lanes 
 Pyramid Highway/Sun Valley/US 395 Connector Phase 4 – Interchange improvements at the

 Pyramid  Highway/Sun  Valley/US  395  Connector  Phase  8  –  Construct  new  interchange  at 
Sparks Boulevard 
 Pyramid Highway/Sun Valley/US 395 Connector Phase 9 – Operational improvements from La 
Posada Drive to Calle de la Plata; widen Pyramid Way from Sunset Springs Lane to Calle de la 
Plata from 2 to 4 lanes 

2040 Traffic Volumes 

2040 roadway and intersection volumes were developed using model outputs from the RTC’s regional 
travel demand model. Base year and future year model volumes were used to develop growth rates for 
the  study  area  roadways  and  intersections.    The  model  volumes  were  adjusted  upward  assuming  the 
worst case scenario that the Pyramid‐395 Connector might not be in place by 2040. 

2040 No Project Intersection Level of Service Analysis 

2040 No Project conditions intersection level of service analysis was performed for the study intersections 
using Synchro 9 analysis software, with reporting for unsignalized intersections based on HCM 2010 and 
reporting  for  signalized  intersections  based  on  HCM  2000  methodology.  HCM  2010  does  not  support 
analysis of signalized intersections with shared through/turn lanes and exclusive turn lanes on the same 
approach. For consistency between analysis scenarios, HCM 2000 reporting was used for all signalized 
intersections. The level of service analysis assumes six (6) lanes on McCarran Boulevard (per the 2040 RTP) 
and the existing lane configurations at all other intersections. A default heavy vehicle percentage of 2 
percent  and  the  existing  peak  hour  factors  were  used  for  all  locations.  The  2040  intersection  lane 
configurations and traffic controls are shown on Figure 12 and 2040 background traffic volumes are shown 
on Figure 13. Table 6 shows the level of service and delay at the study intersections for this study scenario.

Traffic Evaluation 
High School at Wildcreek 
November 10, 2017 

As shown in the table, each of the study intersections is expected to operate at acceptable levels of service 
in the 2040 timeframe with the improvement list outlined in the Sullivan Lane Primary Access scenario.  
No additional mitigation needs were identified by the 2040 evaluation. 

CONCLUSIONS 

This  analysis  serves  the  sole  purpose  of  identifying,  at  a  preliminary  level,  what  types  of  traffic  and 
transportation improvements would likely be necessary to appropriately  manage the additional traffic 
generated by a 2,500 student high school at the Wildcreek site. 

Access  for  the  project  could  be  constructed  via  several  different  configurations  with  connections  to 
Sullivan Lane and potentially a connection to the McCarran Boulevard/Wedekind Road intersection.  This 
analysis demonstrates that acceptable traffic operations could be maintained under a variety of access 
configurations and that the project’s impacts on traffic flow and circulation could be reasonably mitigated. 

Based  on  the  analysis  to  date,  the  following  transportation  improvements  should  be  anticipated  as 
necessary with the project: 

 El Rancho Drive / Sun Valley Boulevard:  Convert the existing westbound to northbound right‐turn 
lane to a free right‐turn with a receiving acceleration and merge lane 
 El Rancho Drive / Sullivan Lane:  Add a channelized right‐turn lane to the westbound approach at 
a minimum, possibly a roundabout or signal depending on the final distribution of traffic 
 Sullivan Lane / North Project Access:  Construct a single‐lane roundabout or other intersection 
improvements 
 Sullivan Lane / South Project Access:  Construct a single‐lane roundabout or other intersection 
improvements 
 McCarran  Boulevard  /  Sullivan  Lane:    Construct  major  intersection  improvements  including 
modifying or adding lanes on the northbound and southbound approaches, lengthening of the 
eastbound left‐turn lane, signal modifications, and signal phasing/timing revisions 
 McCarran Boulevard / Wedekind Road:  Construct a traffic signal if permitted by NDOT and the 
City of Sparks, OR, construct a median island on McCarran Boulevard limiting traffic movements 
to  right‐in/right‐out/left‐in  access  to/from  both  approaches  of  Wedekind  Road.  The  median 
configuration  would  prohibit  left‐turn  movements  and  through  movements  departing  from 
Wedekind  Road  to  McCarran  Boulevard  to  improve  intersection  safety.    Improvements  at  this 
intersection  would  only  be  needed  if  the  project  were  to  obtain  access  at  McCarran 
Blvd/Wedekind Road. 
 Project  Connection  to  Wedekind  Road:    If  connection  is  made  to  Wedekind  Road,  construct  a 
roundabout or other intersection improvements on Wedekind Road north of McCarran Boulevard 
 Sullivan Lane & McCarran Boulevard Roadways:  Construct sidewalks and bicycle lanes along the 
project frontage(s)

 Sullivan Lane, El Rancho Drive & McCarran Boulevard Roadways:  Construct sidewalks and bicycle 
lanes at select locations to fill in gaps in the existing walking/cycling infrastructure 
 Public Transit:  Based on RTC input, potentially construct a RTC Ride transit stop on Sullivan Lane 
near the campus entrance.  The RTC may wish to consider changes to Route 15 to better serve 
high school students. 
 Other improvements as identified by future traffic impact studies:  The intersection mitigation 
requirements  may  change  based  on  the  final  site  plan  and  access  configurations.  Additionally, 
reviewing  agencies  may  require  the  evaluation  of  other  intersections,  traffic  scenarios,  or 
transportation aspects.

Please be advised that in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Standards of
Professional Appraisal Practice that I have not performed services as an appraiser or in any other
capacity regarding the property that is the subject of this appraisal within the three-year period
immediately preceding the date of this letter.

This is an Appraisal Report which is intended to comply with the reporting requirements
set forth under Standards Rule 2-2(a) of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal
Practice. This report sets forth pertinent data, statistics, and other information considered
necessary to establish the market value range of the subject property as of the effective date of
valuation.

This appraisal has been prepared subject to the following Extraordinary Assumptions and
Hypothetical Conditions:

 The subject is currently zoned Public Facility. The client has requested that the appraisal
report addresses the Market Value of the subject property, based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the Public Facility zoning will remain in place on the subject property.

 The exact location of the 75± acres of land on the subject parcel has not yet been
finalized. Therefore, this appraisal report addresses the Market Value Range of a 75±
acre parcel of land; the Market Value Range conclusion is based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the 75± acres will be located on a portion of Washoe County Assessor’s
Parcel Number 027-011-05, and will have adequate dimensions for development of the
75± acres to its highest and best use.

 The subject property is a portion of a parcel which contains significant water rights.
Based upon the instructions of the client, this appraisal report addresses the Market Value
Range of water rights associated with the Wildcreek Golf Course on a per acre foot basis.
The Market Value Range conclusion for the water rights is based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the water rights are able to be utilized for municipal water service.

 The subject property is a 75.00± acre portion of a larger parcel. As the subject 75.00±
acre parcel is not a legally existing parcel, this report is subject to the Hypothetical
Condition that the 75.00± acre parcel is a legally existing parcel as of the effective date of
value.

17-107
After careful consideration of all data available, and upon thorough personal investigation
of the subject property and comparable properties analyzed, it is my opinion that the market
value of the subject property is set out as follows:

RENO-SPARKS AREA ANALYSIS AND DESCRIPTION
The Reno-Sparks metropolitan area is situated on the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada
Mountain Range in a large valley known as the Truckee Meadows. Two major freeways serve
the region. Interstate 80 runs in an east-west direction through Reno, while U.S. 395/I-580 runs
in a north-south direction through Reno. The following summarizes Reno’s vicinity to other
major metropolitan areas in the region.

MILES BETWEEN RENO & MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREAS


Market Direction From Reno Miles From Reno
San Francisco West/Southwest 190± Miles
Los Angeles Southwest 450± Miles
Portland Northwest 440± Miles
Salt Lake City East 520± Miles
Las Vegas Southeast 450± Miles
Phoenix Southeast 745± Miles

McCarran Boulevard is a ring road that encircles the Reno-Sparks area and facilitates
access between the various quadrants of the region. Overall, the Reno-Sparks area has very good
roadway and highway access.

The Reno-Sparks metropolitan area’s location is a positive amenity due to its proximity
to major California markets, as well as the recreational and scenic amenities afforded by its
proximity to the Sierra-Nevada Mountains and Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe is a 45-minute drive
from downtown Reno and is the second largest alpine lake in the world, with 72 miles of Lake
Frontage. Lake Tahoe also offers the greatest concentration of downhill skiing facilities in North
America.

The Truckee Meadows is located at an elevation of approximately 4,400 feet above sea
level and offers a semi-arid climate. The following chart summarizes weather data for the Reno
area.

17-107 7
RENO WEATHER

The primary source of water for the region is the Truckee River, which originates at Lake
Tahoe, approximately 30 miles southwest of Reno, and terminates at Pyramid Lake
approximately 30 miles north of Sparks. The river flows through the heart of downtown Reno
and along the southern edge of Sparks. The Truckee River is a major recreational and scenic
amenity for the region.

17-107 8
Population, Growth and Employment
Since 1970, the Truckee Meadows have been one of the fastest growing areas in the
nation, with the population increasing by over 100% by 1990. According to the Nevada State
Demographer’s Office at the University of Nevada, the population of Washoe County was
estimated to be 436,797 in 2014. The following summarizes historical population estimates for
the region.

Nevada offers one of the most liberal tax structures in the country. Nevada levies no
personal or corporate income tax. Nevada’s Freeport law exempts from taxation merchandise
warehoused, assembled or processed in the State of Nevada. Real estate taxes in the State of

Although it is not located in Washoe County, construction of the new Tesla Gigafactory
in nearby Storey County within the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center is expected to have a huge
impact on the entire region. On September 5, 2014, Tesla announced that the Tahoe Reno
Industrial Park (TRIC), located east of Sparks, had landed the coveted Gigafactory. Over $1.25
billion in State of Nevada incentives were approved for development of the project. In return,

17-107 10
Tesla will be required to complete $5 billion in capital investments on the facility through 2028.
The cost for the building and site infrastructure will be $1.1 billion. Machinery and equipment
will account for the remaining $3.9 billion, including materials processing and product assembly.
Once the 5.5 million square foot facility reaches full operation, it will produce enough batteries
for 500,000 Tesla electric cars each year. As part of the deal, the USA Parkway extension was
fast-tracked; this $43 million project extends USA Parkway from its current terminus in TRIC, to
U.S. Highway 50 in Silver Springs, greatly reducing travel times between Interstate 80 and U.S.
Highway 50. In January 2015, Las Vegas-based Switch announced plans to build a 3 million
square foot data center project in the same industrial center. The project is expected to be built
in phases with a total of $1 billion in investment with it; the first phase was completed in 2017.

Gaming and Tourism Market


It is estimated that the Reno-Sparks area currently offers approximately 25,000 hotel and
motel rooms. The vast majority of the hotel-casino facilities are located within the downtown
Reno core area. As a result, this area is one of the primary employment centers in the Reno-
Sparks area. Additional hotel-casino developments are located in southern Reno along South
Virginia Street including the Atlantis Casino resort and the Peppermill Hotel/Casino. The Grand
Sierra Resort is located on the Reno-Sparks border and John Ascuaga’s Nugget is located east of
Reno in central Sparks. It is noted that the Nugget was recently purchased by a new owner and
is undergoing major renovations. The following chart summarizes the most recent data available
for gaming revenue for the Reno-Sparks/Washoe County area, as well as other areas within the
state.

Within the past decade, legalized gaming has continued to spread across the country and
gaming revenues for northern Nevada have been impacted. The opening of several Indian
casinos in the State of California in recent years and the proposed openings of several other
Indian Casinos in California have had a dramatic effect on the gaming economy in the Reno-
Sparks area. Over the past decade, several casinos in the downtown Reno market, including the
Sundowner Hotel Casino, the Comstock Hotel Casino, Fitzgerald, and the Golden Phoenix Hotel
Casino, have closed.

Residential Market
The residential market in the Reno-Sparks area grew tremendously in the 1990’s and this
growth continued until 2006, when the residential housing crisis began. The downturn in the
residential market had a tremendous impact on residential development and sales within the
Reno-Sparks market, resulting in very limited new construction for the past five years. Although
the residential real estate market has struggled there are signs of recovery. The existing
residential home sales and prices are on the rebound. Market activity has increased significantly
in Northern Nevada in recent months and the residential market is on the rebound after a long
period of decline. Sale offers are reported at or above list prices and sellers are receiving
multiple offers.

The October 2017 Market Report presented by the Reno/Sparks Association of Realtors
reports that, “The recently released tax reform framework promises to lower taxes for the middle
class and create economic growth,” said John Graham, 2017 President of the Reno/Sparks

17-107 12
Association of REALTORS. “However, restricting the Mortgage Interest Deduction to just the
top 5 percent and repealing the deduction for state and local taxes would eliminate the time-
honored tax incentives of owning a home for current and prospective homeowners. It could also
lower the value of all homes by more than 10 percent and inhibit growth.”

 The October median price at $348,500 is up 4% from September and up 12% from a year
ago.
 October unit sales at 538 are down 12% from September and up 4% compared to October
2016.
 October new listings are down 5% at 536 compared to September and down 8% from one
year ago.
 The Reno market is a seller’s market, at 1.7 months supply of inventory. Months supply
of inventory is the time it would take to exhaust the active inventory at the current rate of
sales. The Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS calculates the Months Supply of
Inventory by dividing active inventory by unit sales. Pending sales are excluded from the
calculation.
 Sales were down in October. Year-to-date sales are at a record high of 5,779. That's 266
sales or 5% increase over the same period in 2016.
 The October median sales for the Reno/Sparks area at $348,500 is up 12% from a year
ago. The median price has leveled the past three months, after a high for the year in July.

 Properties are remaining on the market an average of 88 days down 5% from October
2016.
 Sellers are receiving an average of 99% of list price level up less than 1% from October

Industrial Market
In an effort to diversify the economic base of the area, community leaders have focused
upon the expansion of the industrial segment of the economy. The industrial industry has
experienced substantial growth over the past decade as a result of the region’s central location,
good transportation, infrastructure and liberal tax laws. At the present time, over 500 major U.S.
and foreign corporations have headquarters or located large facilities in the area, including
Amazon.com, International Gaming Technology (IGT), Barnes and Noble, Patagonia, Sherwin
Williams, Wal-Mart Distribution Center, J.C. Penney’s Catalog Distribution Center, and R.R.
Donnelley, one of the nation’s largest publishers.

On September 5, 2014, Tesla announced that the Tahoe Reno Industrial Park (TRIC),

As most major cities in the western portion of the United States are located within
relatively close proximity and driving time to Northern Nevada, the Reno-Sparks area is a major
distribution warehousing center. This development is further being enhanced by the favorable
tax environment in the state of Nevada. Leases for industrial users in the Reno-Sparks market
are typically based upon triple net lease terms. The CBRE Reno Industrial Market View 2nd

Leases for retail space in the Reno-Sparks market are typically based upon triple net lease
terms or modified gross lease terms. Under triple net lease terms, tenants typically pay a base
rental rate, and are also responsible for paying most operating expenses associated with the
property, including utilities, taxes, insurance, management, typical repairs and maintenance, and
other expense items. In multi-tenant projects, these additional fees are most often billed back to
tenants; these are often referred to as Common Area Maintenance (CAM) fees. The CBRE Reno

Office Market
The Reno-Sparks office market consists of a variety of product types, from older second
and third generation properties, to new, high-end Class A office space. Leases for professional
office uses in the Reno-Sparks market are typically based upon full service gross lease terms or
modified gross lease terms. Under full service gross lease terms, owners are responsible for all
operating costs associated with the building. Typically, these leases incorporate base year
expense stops, with tenants responsible for any increases in operating expenses over the base
year. Under modified gross lease terms, the tenant is typically responsible for utilities and
janitorial service. Due to increases in utility expenses, many property owners now market
properties on modified gross lease terms, with some even marketing properties on triple net lease
terms, in which the tenant is responsible for all operating expenses associated with the building.

Hospitals, Education and Public Services
The Reno-Sparks area has four private general hospitals and one Veterans’
Administration hospital. While the area is considered to have good hospital facilities, the
hospitals in Nevada are some of the more expensive in the country. The two largest hospitals, St.
Mary’s and Renown, have both opened satellite hospitals in south Reno, and have both
undergone major expansions at their main facilities.

The Washoe County School District provides public schools. The University of Nevada-
Reno is situated on a 200-acre campus just north of downtown Reno. There are approximately
21,300 students currently enrolled at the University. The area is also served by the Truckee

Summary
In summary, the Reno-Sparks area has experienced rapid population growth over the past
several decades due to the excellent quality of life. Historically, the gaming industry has been
the principal economic base for the area. With the legalization of gaming across the United
States, the area’s principal industry is experiencing a major challenge.

In response to this challenge, the National Bowling Stadium and Downtown Events
Center have been built, the Reno-Sparks Convention Center has been expanded and renovated,
special events have been expanded, the City of Reno is actively supporting downtown
revitalization, and a AAA professional baseball stadium was completed in April of 2009. Tesla
began construction on their new Gigafactory just east of Sparks in the Tahoe Reno Industrial
Park in 2014. The area has experienced success in broadening the economic base with the
expansion of the hi-tech and back office industries.

freestanding retail-commercial and shop buildings. At the present time, Victorian Avenue is
primarily improved with older commercial buildings including weekly motels, car lots, repair
shops, convenience stores and a variety of retail businesses. For the most part, this portion of the
neighborhood has seen little new construction and many of the businesses situated along this
section of Victorian Avenue are older single-family residences which have been converted to
commercial uses.

Within the eastern portion of the neighborhood, between 15th Street and Pyramid Way,
Victorian Avenue is known as Victorian Square, and is improved with a hotel-casino and
ancillary uses including restaurants, bars and retail shops. Development of Victorian Square is
the result of the efforts of the Sparks Redevelopment Agency, and has transformed this section of
Victorian Avenue into a large pedestrian walkway with public areas, decorative sidewalks, and
outdoor lighting and landscaped areas. Recent new developments in Victorian Square include
several new apartment complexes, including Fountainhouse and Square One, as well as The
Bridges, which is currently under construction. Additionally, a movie theater in Victorian
Square is being converted to a luxury movie theater. Several other major projects are planned
for Victorian Square, with hopes to make the area a walkable downtown living and shopping
area.

Victorian Square is also home to a transit center, named Centennial Plaza. This center
was developed by the Regional Transportation Commission on the south side of Victorian
Avenue, between 14th Street and extending west of 15th Street. This transit center has 15 covered
bus bays and resembles a railroad roundhouse.

Victorian Square is the primary tourist attraction in the city of Sparks and a number of
special events, including a major rib cook-off, chili cook-offs, farmer’s markets, craft fairs and
parades are held annually.

17-107 52
SUBJECT PROPERTY WATER RIGHTS
Washoe County Assessor’s Parcel Number 027-011-05, which the subject is a portion of, does have
appurtenant water rights. According to Ms. Vivian Carvin, who researched water rights on the
property, the subject includes portions of Permit Numbers 78563 and 78564. The following
summarizes Ms. Carvin’s findings, as provided to Wood Rodgers in a letter dated October 5, 2017.

In addition to the above water rights, the subject ownership has also reportedly transferred 448.88±
acre feet of Truckee River water rights to the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), in order to
utilize 500± acre feet of effluent on the existing golf course on the property. The Market Value
analysis for the 75.00± acres does not include water rights. A separate analysis of water rights will
address the Market Value Range of water rights on the subject site which are assumed to be usable for
municipal water service.

SUBJECT PROPERTY EASEMENTS


Title Report Provided Title Company Effective Date Title Report ID
Yes Ticor Title of Nevada, Inc. 06/07/2017 017-02907-TO
Prior to issuance of this appraisal report, I was provided with a Title Report prepared by Ticor
Title of Nevada, Inc. This report indicates numerous exceptions to coverage, including many
easements encumbering the entire property. A copy of the Title Report is set forth in the
Addenda of this report. Based upon a review of the Title Report, and based upon discussions
with the client and representatives of Wood Rodgers, Inc., the easements do not materially
impact the development potential of the site. It is noted that various utility easements,
including power line easements, must be accounted for in any development of the subject
property.

SUBJECT PROPERTY EARTHQUAKE ZONE


The subject region is located in a zone which encompasses areas which have a number of
local faults and where there is a relatively strong probability of moderate to strong seismic
activity. The Uniform Building Code does require special construction techniques as a result
of earthquake hazards. Additionally, a structural engineer typically reviews plans for
residential and commercial buildings in order to assess earthquake hazards. As a result, for
the purposes of this analysis, it is being assumed that the subject property is not impacted by
earthquake hazards to a greater degree than is typical for the area.

SUBJECT PROPERTY SOIL CHARACTERISTICS


A survey of the soils on the subject site has not been provided to me. This appraisal report
and the market value conclusions set forth in the report, assume that the subject soils have
sufficient load bearing properties for development of the site to its highest and best use.

17-107 54
SUBJECT PROPERTY IMPROVEMENTS
The subject property is improved with an 18-hole golf course, a 9-hole executive par 3 course,
a driving range, a 12,596± square foot clubhouse building constructed in 1979, a storage
building, a covered picnic structure, various irrigation equipment and other improvements
associated with the golf course. Additionally, the subject is improved with various parking
areas and cart paths. Improvements on the site were in average condition as of the date of
inspection.

SUBJECT SALES & USE HISTORY

The subject property has not been involved in any arm’s length transactions over the past 10-
year period. The client of this report, the Washoe County School District, has expressed an
interest in purchasing the subject property for the development of a new high school on the
site.

SUBJECT ASSESSMENTS, TAXABLE VALUES


A.P.N. 027-011-05 (ENTIRE PARCEL)

The taxable value of the property is based upon the Assessor’s estimate of the full cash value
of the site. The taxable value of the improvements is based upon the replacement cost new of
the improvements which the Assessor estimates utilizing Marshall Valuation Service a
nationally recognized and accepted cost estimating publication. Straight line depreciation of
1.5% per year is deducted from the replacement cost new of the improvements.

17-107 55
SUBJECT REAL PROPERTY TAXES (ENTIRE PARCEL)
A.P.N. 027-011-05

The subject property is owned by Washoe County, and is therefore exempt from real property
taxes. If the property were to be owned by a private entity, the property would be subject to
real property taxes.

17-107 56
HIGHEST AND BEST USE ANALYSIS
Highest and best use is defined in the 6th Edition of The Dictionary of Real Estate
Appraisal (Appraisal Institute, Chicago, 2015) as:

1. The reasonably probable use of property that results in the highest value. The four
criteria that the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical
possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity.
2. The use of an asset that maximizes its potential and that is possible, legally permissible,
and financially feasible. The highest and best use may be for continuation of an asset’s
existing use or for some alternative use. This is determined by the use that a market
participant would have in mind for the asset when formulating the price that it would be
willing to bid. (IVS)
3. The highest and most profitable use for which the property is adaptable and needed or
likely to be needed in the reasonably near future. (Uniform Appraisal Standards for
Federal Land Acquisitions)

Physically Possible
The subject property is a 75.00± acre portion of a 212.223± acre parcel. The subject
parcel is summarized in the chart below.

The subject property has adequate physical characteristics for development. The subject
site has sufficient size, adequate shape, utilities immediately available, and adequate topography
and soils for development. The subject site is encumbered by the Orr Ditch as well as several
ponds, which must be addressed if the property were to be developed; the Orr Ditch could be
incorporated as open space in a development, or could be undergrounded through the property.

Overall, the physically possible uses of the site include a wide variety of development
possibilities, including commercial and residential uses.

This appraisal report, and the market value conclusions set forth in the report, are based
upon the Extraordinary Assumption that the subject site will remain in the Public Facility (PF)
zoning district. As is indicated in the chart above, legally permissible uses on a PF zoned
property are limited to uses associated with public uses, and do not include residential, industrial,
or retail development. It is noted that office uses are an allowed use, as are various public uses
such as schools and hospitals.

17-107 58
Financially Feasible & Maximally Productive
The highest and best use of the subject property must be financially feasible and represent
the maximally productive use of the property. To be financially feasible, there must be adequate
demand to support the highest and best use of the property.

The subject, under its current and assumed PF zoning designation, would allow various
public facility uses and office development. Development with residential, retail or industrial
would not be allowed for the most part, unless it was part of a Public Facility use.

Based upon the physically possible uses of the property, and based upon the subject’s
current and assumed Public Facility zoning, I have determined that the highest and best use of
the site would be for development or use with a Public Facility use. The client of this appraisal
report intends to purchase the site for development with a new high school, which would
represent a maximally productive use of the site.

17-107 59
INTRODUCTION TO VALUATION ANALYSIS-LAND VALUE
There are three approaches to value an appraiser generally must consider in estimating
the value of a property. These approaches include the Cost Approach, the Income Approach and
the Sales Comparison Approach.

Valuation Techniques
This appraisal is being prepared for the purpose of estimating the Market Value of the
identified subject property as of the effective date of value. As this appraisal report is addressing
the Market Value of vacant land, the Sales Comparison Approach to Value is the method utilized
to determine the Market Value of the larger parcel.

The Sales Comparison Approach is based upon the principal of substitution, which holds
that the value of a property tends to be set by the price that would be paid to acquire a substitute
property of similar utility and desirability. In valuing the Fee Simple Market Value of the
subject property as of the effective date of value, the Sales Comparison Approach to Value will
be completed. This approach to value is felt to represent the best indicator of market value for
the subject property as of the effective date of value.

Selection of Sales
In selecting comparable land sales data, I have researched the Official Records of
Washoe County, interviewed numerous realtors and brokers in the market, and have researched
other providers of real estate data in the market including Multiple Listing Service, CoStar, and
Loopnet. The chart below summarizes the sales data utilized to value the subject parcel, which is
followed by a sales map, profile sheets and the valuation of the subject property as of the
effective date of value.

Discussion of Adjustments
The comparable properties utilized in this analysis will be compared and correlated to the
subject property based upon several adjustment criteria. These include property rights conveyed,
financing terms, conditions of sale, market conditions, location, physical characteristics,
zoning/use, and non-realty components of value. The sales will be analyzed based upon a sale
price per acre basis.

Within the adjustment to sales section, most adjustments made will be qualitative
adjustments, due to a lack of sale and resale activity from which to garner quantitative
adjustments. In qualitatively adjusting the sales, an upward (+) adjustment is made to the
comparable sale’s price per acre when the subject is superior to the sale for specific criteria;
likewise, a downward adjustment (-) is made to the comparable sale’s price per acre when the
subject is inferior to the sale for specific criteria. If the comparable sale is similar to the subject
for specific criteria, then no adjustment is warranted (=).

Several of the comparable land sales included water rights. In this appraisal, no water
rights are included in the valuation of the subject property. As there is a market for water rights
and there is sufficient data with which to make quantitative adjustments for water rights, the
sales which included water rights will be adjusted quantitatively; the sales which included water
rights will be adjusted downward on a per acre basis.

17-107 68
Quantitative Adjustments
Water Rights Adjustment
Although the subject property does have a significant amount of water rights, this portion
of the appraisal report assumes that there is not water rights attributable to the land; a separate
analysis of the Market Value of water rights will be completed. Two of the sales included water
rights, while three of the sales did not include water rights. The two sales which included water
rights had 23± acre feet (Sale 2) and 217.64± acre feet (Sale 5) of water rights; both sales must
be adjusted downward for water rights. The remaining sales do not require adjustments for water
rights.

In order to determine an appropriate adjustment, I have reviewed several water rights


transactions which have occurred in the marketplace. The following chart summarizes numerous
water rights transactions which have occurred.

17-107 69
In general, water rights have ranged in price per acre foot of between $5,000 and $8,000,
depending on place of use, permitted use, and quantity of water rights. Water rights may also be
purchased from the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), who currently charges $7,500
per acre foot. Water rights are available on the open market, and as is evidenced in the chart
above, water rights purchases are generally below or near TMWA rates.

Based upon a review of the water rights sales, and with consideration given to the amount
of water rights included in the sales and the subject, I have adjusted the sales for water rights at
$7,000 per acre foot. The chart below summarizes the water rights adjustments made to the
sales.

After adjusting for water rights, the sales indicate an adjusted price per acre range
between $11,283 per acre and $67,500 per acre.

Qualitative Adjustments
In the following analysis, comparisons will be made to the subject parcel and the
comparable sales data. Due to a lack of paired sales data, qualitative adjustments will be made to
the comparable data for the remaining adjustment criteria.

Property Rights Conveyed


In this analysis I am estimating the fee simple market value of the subject property. Each
of the sales analyzed involved the sale of the fee simple interest of the property; therefore, no
adjustments for property rights are required to the sales when comparing them to the subject’s
fee simple estate.

location of the subject 75± acres has not been finalized, and therefore some of the improvements
may not be included in the final 75± acre site; therefore, no adjustments for buyer expenditures
are necessary to the sales for buyer expenditures.

Market Conditions
The sales occurred between June 2016 and June 2017. Although none of the comparable
sales has been involved in a sale/resale over this period, I have analyzed other market factors to
determine if a market conditions adjustment is warranted. Additionally, I have interviewed a
number of buyers, sellers and brokers in the market. Each of the interviewees indicated that
demand for vacant land has increased significantly in the Reno-Sparks market over the several
years, and this trend has continued into 2016 and 2017. Overall, upward qualitative adjustments
for market conditions are made to the sales; the two 2016 sales require larger qualitative
adjustments for market conditions.

Zoning/Legal Development Potential


The subject is currently zoned Public Facility (PF), and is within the City of Sparks. This
appraisal report assumes that the subject will remain within the PF zoning district. The PF
zoning district allows uses consistent with public facilities; the allowed uses are set forth in a
prior section of this report.

17-107 72
Other than sale 2, each of the sale properties is felt to have superior zoning in-place, in
comparison to the subject’s PF zoning designation. Sale 2 has General Rural zoning, which is
felt to be less desirable than the subject’s PF zoning. Overall, downward adjustments have been
made to Sales 1, 3, 4 and 5 for zoning/legal development potential. Sale 2 has been adjusted
upward for zoning/development potential.

Analysis of Sales
Sale 1 indicates a price per acre sale price of $11,283, which did not require adjustment
for water rights. This sale requires upward adjustments for market conditions, general location,

17-107 76
frontage, access, topography, utilities and size. A downward adjustment was warranted for
zoning/legal development. Overall, this sale property’s $11,283 per acre sale price is considered
a low indicator of value for the subject property on a per acre basis.

Sale 2 indicates a price per acre sale price of $17,408; after adjustment for water rights,
the adjusted per acre price is $12,924. This sale requires upward adjustments for market
conditions, zoning/legal development, general location, frontage, access, topography, utilities,
and flood zone. A downward adjustment was warranted for size. Overall, this sale property’s
$12,924 adjusted per acre sale price is considered a low indicator of value for the subject
property on a per acre basis.

Sale 3 indicates a price per acre sale price of $27,357, which did not require adjustment
for water rights. This sale requires upward adjustments for market conditions and general
location, and slight upward adjustments are warranted for frontage, access, and utilities.
Downward adjustments are warranted for zoning/legal development, topography and size.
Overall, this sale property’s $27,357 per acre sale price is considered a high indicator of value
for the subject property on a per acre basis.

Sale 4 indicates a price per acre sale price of $67,500, which did not require adjustment
for water rights. This sale requires upward adjustments for market conditions, access and
utilities. A large downward adjustment is warranted for zoning/legal development, and a
downward adjustment is warranted for location. Overall, this sale property’s $67,500 per acre
sale price is considered a high indicator of value for the subject property on a per acre basis; this
property has zoning in place to allow a vast number of potential uses, including high density
development.

Sale 5 indicates a price per acre sale price of $53,571; after adjustment for water rights,
the adjusted per acre price is $32,645. This sale requires a slight upward adjustment for market
conditions, and requires upward adjustments for frontage, access and utilities. On the other
hand, downward adjustments are warranted to this sale for zoning/legal development, as well as
general location. Overall, this sale property’s $32,645 adjusted per acre sale price is considered
a high indicator of value for the subject property on a per acre basis; this sale property has zoning
in place to allow single-family residential development in one of the more exclusive residential
areas of Reno.

17-107 77
Conclusion
In estimating an appropriate per acre value for the subject property as of the effective
date of value, consideration has been given to the parcel’s location, zoning designation, and
highest and best use. Consideration is given to the comparable land sales data, the effective date
of value, and the definition of market value being addressed.

It is realized that the exact location of the subject 75± acre site has not yet been finalized,
but the site will be located on Washoe County Assessor’s Parcel Number 027-011-05, and will
include at a minimum significant frontage along Sullivan Lane. The client has requested a value
range to account for the unknown exact location on the site. It is my opinion that a site located
toward the south of A.P.N. 027-011-05 with frontage along North McCarran Boulevard would be
the most desirable location and is represented by the higher end of my value range, due to
increased frontage and visibility from this major arterial roadway and better topography. It is my
opinion that a 75± acre site further north is less desirable and is represented by the lower end of
my value range, as it has less frontage and visibility and steeper topography.

Based upon a careful review and analysis of the available data, it is my opinion that an
appropriate per acre value range applicable to the subject property is $20,000 to $25,000. The
following summarizes the market value conclusion for the subject property as of the effective
date of value.

VALUATION ANALYSIS OF WATER RIGHTS
The client of this appraisal report has requested an analysis of water rights values
associated with water rights associated with the subject site which could be utilized for municipal
water. The following sets forth an analysis of water rights on the subject property.

SUBJECT PROPERTY WATER RIGHTS


Washoe County Assessor’s Parcel Number 027-011-05, which the subject is a portion of, does have
appurtenant water rights. According to Ms. Vivian Carvin, who researched water rights on the
property, the subject includes portions of Permit Numbers 78563 and 78564. The following
summarizes Ms. Carvin’s findings, as provided to Wood Rodgers in a letter dated October 5, 2017.

In addition to the above water rights, the subject ownership has also reportedly transferred 448.88±
acre feet of Truckee River water rights to the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), in order to
utilize 500± acre feet of effluent on the existing golf course on the property.

17-107 79
Analysis of Water Rights Values
The subject has a significant amount of water associated with the property. The Washoe
County School District has asked for an analysis of water rights values associated with the water
rights on the subject property which could be utilized for municipal water rights use. In order to
determine a Market Value Range of water rights, I have analyzed sales of water rights, and have
interviewed water rights experts, the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), and brokers,
buyers and sellers of water rights. The following chart summarizes numerous water rights
transactions which have occurred in the Reno-Sparks market.

In general, water rights have ranged in price per acre foot of between $5,000 and $8,000,
depending on place of use, permitted use, and quantity of water rights. Water rights may also be
purchased from the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), who currently charges $7,500
per acre foot. Water rights are available on the open market, and as is evidenced in the chart
above, water rights purchases are generally below or near TMWA rates.

17-107 80
Based upon a review of the water rights sales, and with consideration given to asking
water rights prices from TMWA, it is my opinion that the water rights on the subject site, which
have the ability to be utilized for municipal service, have a Market Value Range of between
$6,500 per acre foot and $7,500 per acre foot.

EXPOSURE AND MARKETING TIME
Exposure time is defined as the length of time that would have been necessary to expose
the property on the open market, in order to have consummated the sale at the effective date of
valuation. This analysis assumes the property was marketed at the value conclusion contained in
this report.

Marketing time, on the other hand, is the time necessary to consummate a sale of the
subject property assuming that a marketing effort is begun as of the effective date of valuation
and that the property is marketed at the final property value conclusions contained in this report.

In arriving at an estimate of an appropriate exposure and marketing time for the subject
property, consideration is given the subject property’s physical characteristics. Consideration is
also given to the exposure and marketing times of other residential land in the Reno area, and
interviews with brokers and property managers familiar with similar properties.

Based upon a review of the available data, it is my opinion that an appropriate exposure
and marketing time for the subject property, assuming it is marketed at its final property value
conclusions, would be as follows:

This is an Appraisal Report which is intended to comply with the reporting requirements
set forth under Standards Rule 2-2(a) of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal
Practice. This report sets forth pertinent data, statistics, and other information considered
necessary to establish the market value range of the subject property as of the effective date of
valuation.

This appraisal has been prepared subject to the following Extraordinary Assumptions and
Hypothetical Conditions:

17-107 83
 The subject is currently zoned Public Facility. The client has requested that the appraisal
report addresses the Market Value of the subject property, based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the Public Facility zoning will remain in place on the subject property.

 The exact location of the 75± acres of land on the subject parcel has not yet been
finalized. Therefore, this appraisal report addresses the Market Value Range of a 75±
acre parcel of land; the Market Value Range conclusion is based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the 75± acres will be located on a portion of Washoe County Assessor’s
Parcel Number 027-011-05, and will have adequate dimensions for development of the
75± acres to its highest and best use.

 The subject property is a portion of a parcel which contains significant water rights.
Based upon the instructions of the client, this appraisal report addresses the Market Value
Range of water rights associated with the Wildcreek Golf Course on a per acre foot basis.
The Market Value Range conclusion for the water rights is based upon the Extraordinary
Assumption that the water rights are able to be utilized for municipal water service.

 The subject property is a 75.00± acre portion of a larger parcel. As the subject 75.00±
acre parcel is not a legally existing parcel, this report is subject to the Hypothetical
Condition that the 75.00± acre parcel is a legally existing parcel as of the effective date of
value.

After careful consideration of all data available, and upon thorough personal investigation
of the subject property and comparable properties analyzed, it is my opinion that the market
value of the subject property is set out as follows:

FINAL MARKET VALUE CONCLUSIONS


Property Value Property Rights Effective Date Market Value Range
Description Addressed Appraised Of Value Conclusion
75.00± Acre Portion of Market Fee Simple November 1, $1,500,000 to

STANDARD ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
The acceptance of this appraisal assignment and the completion of the appraisal report
submitted herewith are contingent upon the following assumptions and limiting conditions.

LIMITS OF LIABILITY

This report was prepared by Johnson Perkins Griffin, LLC. All opinions, recommendations, and
conclusions expressed during the course of this assignment are rendered by the staff of Johnson-Perkins &
Associates, as employees, not as individuals. The liability of Johnson Perkins Griffin, LLC and its
employees and associates is limited to the client only and to the fee actually received by the appraisal firm.
There is no accountability, obligation, or liability to any third party. If the appraisal report is disseminated
to anyone other than the client, the client shall make such party or parties aware of all limiting conditions
and assumptions affecting the appraisal assignment. Neither the appraisers nor the appraisal firm is in any
way to be responsible for any costs incurred to discover or correct any physical, financial and/or legal
deficiencies of any type present in the subject property. In the case of limited partnerships or syndication
offerings or stock offerings in real estate, the client agrees that in the event of a lawsuit brought by a lender,
a partner or part owner in any form of ownership, a tenant or any other party, the client will hold the
appraiser(s) and the appraisal firm completely harmless in such action with respect to any and all awards or
settlements of any type in such lawsuits.

COPIES, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION AND USE OF REPORT

Possession of this report or any copy thereof does not carry with it the right of publication, nor may it
be used for any purpose or any function other than its intended use, as stated in the body of the report. The
appraisal fee represents compensation only for the analytical services provided by the appraiser(s). The
appraisal report remains the property of the appraisal firm, though it may be used by the client in accord
with these assumptions and limiting conditions.

This appraisal is to be used only in its entirety, and no part is to be used without the whole report. All
conclusions and opinions concerning the analysis as set forth in the report were prepared by the appraiser(s)
whose signature(s) appears on the appraisal report, unless it is indicated that one or more of the appraisers
was acting as "Review Appraiser." No change of any item in the report shall be made by anyone other than
the appraiser(s). The appraiser(s) and the appraisal firm shall bear no responsibility for any such
unauthorized changes.

CONFIDENTIALITY

Except as provided for subsequently, neither the appraiser(s) nor the appraisal firm may divulge the
analyses, opinions or conclusions developed in the appraisal report, nor may they give a copy of the report
to anyone other than the client or his designee as specified in writing. However, this condition does not
apply to any requests made by the Appraisal Institute for purposes of confidential ethics enforcement.
Also, this condition does not apply to any order or request issued by a court of law or any other body with
the power of subpoena.

17-107 85
INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY OTHERS

Information (including projections of income and expenses) provided by informed local sources, such
as government agencies, financial institutions, Realtors, buyers, sellers, property owners, bookkeepers,
accountants, attorneys, and others is assumed to be true, correct and reliable. No responsibility for the
accuracy of such information is assumed by the appraiser(s). Neither the appraiser(s) nor the appraisal firm
is liable for any information or the work product provided by subcontractors. The client and others
utilizing the appraisal report are advised that some of the individuals associated with Johnson Perkins
Griffin, LLC are independent contractors and may sign the appraisal report in that capacity. The
comparable data relied upon in this report has been confirmed with one or more parties familiar with the
transaction or from affidavit or other sources thought reasonable. To the best of our judgment and
knowledge, all such information is considered appropriate for inclusion. In some instances, an impractical
and uneconomic expenditure of time would be required in attempting to furnish absolutely unimpeachable
verification. The value conclusions set forth in the appraisal report are subject to the accuracy of said data.
It is suggested that the client consider independent verification as a prerequisite to any transaction
involving a sale, a lease or any other commitment of funds with respect to the subject property.

TESTIMONY, CONSULTATION, COMPLETION OF CONTRACT FOR APPRAISAL SERVICE

The contract for each appraisal, consultation or analytical service is fulfilled and the total fee is payable
upon completion of the report. The appraisers(s) or those assisting in the preparation of the report will not
be asked or required to give testimony in court or in any other hearing as a result of having prepared the
appraisal, either in full or in part, except under separate and special arrangements at an additional fee. If
testimony or a deposition is required, the client shall be responsible for any additional time, fees and
charges, regardless of the issuing party. Neither the appraiser(s) nor those assisting in the preparation of
the report is required to engage in post- appraisal consultation with the client or other third parties, except
under a separate and special arrangement and at an additional fee.

EXHIBITS AND PHYSICAL DESCRIPTIONS

It is assumed that the improvements and the utilization of the land are within the boundaries of the
property lines of the property described in the report and that there is no encroachment or trespass unless
noted otherwise within the report. No survey of the property has been made by the appraiser(s) and no
responsibility is assumed in connection with such matters. Any maps, plats, or drawings reproduced and
included in the report are there to assist the reader in visualizing the property and are not necessarily drawn
to scale. They should not be considered as surveys or relied upon for any other purpose, nor should they be
removed from, reproduced or used apart from the report.

TITLE, LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS, AND OTHER LEGAL MATTERS

No responsibility is assumed by the appraiser(s) or the appraisal firm for matters legal in character or
nature. No opinion is rendered as to the status of title to any property. The title is presumed to be good and
merchantable. The property is appraised as if free and clear, unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report.
The legal description, as furnished by the client, his designee or as derived by the appraiser(s), is assumed
to be correct as reported. The appraisal is not to be construed as giving advice concerning liens, title status,
or legal marketability of the subject property.

17-107 86
ENGINEERING, STRUCTURAL, MECHANICAL, ARCHITECTURAL CONDITIONS

This appraisal should not be construed as a report on the physical items that are a part of any property
described in the appraisal report. Although the appraisal may contain information about these physical
items (including their adequacy and/or condition), it should be clearly understood that this information is
only to be used as a general guide for property valuation and not as a complete or detailed report on these
physical items. The appraiser(s) is not a construction, engineering, or architectural expert, and any opinion
given on these matters in this report should be considered tentative in nature and is subject to modification
upon receipt of additional information from appropriate experts. The client is advised to seek appropriate
expert opinion before committing any funds to the property described in the appraisal report.

Any statement in the appraisal regarding the observed condition of the foundation, roof, exterior walls,
interior walls, floors, heating system, plumbing, insulation, electrical service, all mechanicals, and all
matters relating to construction is based on a casual inspection only. Unless otherwise noted in the
appraisal report, no detailed inspection was made. For instance, the appraiser is not an expert on heating
systems, and no attempt was made to inspect the interior of the furnace. The structures were not
investigated for building code violations, and it is assumed that all buildings meet the applicable building
code requirements unless stated otherwise in the report.

Such items as conditions behind walls, above ceilings, behind locked doors, under the floor, or under
the ground are not exposed to casual view and, therefore, were not inspected, unless specifically so stated
in the appraisal. The existence of insulation, if any is mentioned, was discovered through conversations
with others and/or circumstantial evidence. Since it is not exposed to view, the accuracy of any statements
regarding insulation cannot be guaranteed.

Because no detailed inspection was made, and because such knowledge goes beyond the scope of this
appraisal, any comments on observed conditions given in this appraisal report should not be taken as a
guarantee that a problem does not exist. Specifically, no guarantee is given as to the adequacy or condition
of the foundation, roof, exterior walls, interior walls, floors, heating systems, air conditioning systems,
plumbing, electrical service, insulation, or any other detailed construction matters. If any interested party is
concerned about the existence, condition, or adequacy of any particular item, we would strongly suggest
that a mechanical and/or structural inspection be made by a qualified and licensed contractor, a civil or
structural engineer, an architect or other experts. This appraisal report is based on the assumption that there
are no hidden, unapparent or apparent conditions on the property or improvements which would materially
alter the value as reported. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions or for any expertise or
engineering to discover them. All mechanical components are assumed to be in operable condition and
standard for the properties of the subject type. Conditions of heating, cooling, ventilating, electrical and
plumbing equipment are considered to be commensurate with the condition of the balance of the
improvements unless otherwise stated. No judgment is made in the appraisal as to the adequacy of
insulation, the type of insulation, or the energy efficiency of the improvements or equipment which is
assumed to be standard for the subject's age, type and condition.

TOXIC MATERIALS AND HAZARDS

Unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report, no attempt has been made to identify or report the
presence of any potentially toxic materials and/or condition such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam
insulation, PCBs, any form of toxic waste, polychlorinated biphenyl, pesticides, lead-based paints or soils
or ground water contamination on any land or improvements described in the appraisal report. Before
committing funds to any property, it is strongly advised that appropriate experts be employed to inspect
both land and improvements for the existence of such potentially toxic materials and/or conditions. If any
potentially toxic materials and/or conditions are present on the property, the value of the property may be

17-107 87
adversely affected and a re-appraisal at an additional cost may be necessary to estimate the effects of such
circumstances.

SOILS, SUB-SOILS, AND POTENTIAL HAZARDS

It is assumed that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the soils or sub-soil which would
render the subject property more or less valuable than reported in the appraisal. No engineering or
percolation tests were made and no liability is assumed for soil conditions. Unless otherwise noted, the
land and the soil in the area being appraised appeared to be firm, but no investigation has been made to
determine whether or not any detrimental sub-soil conditions exist. Neither the appraiser(s) nor the
appraisal firm is liable for any problems arising from soil conditions. These appraisers strongly advise that,
before any funds are committed to a property, the advice of appropriate experts be sought.

If the appraiser(s) has not been supplied with a termite inspection report, survey or occupancy permit,
no responsibility is assumed and no representation is made for any costs associated with obtaining same or
for any deficiencies discovered before or after they are obtained.

Neither the appraiser(s) nor the appraisal firm assumes responsibility for any costs or for any
consequences arising from the need or lack of need for flood hazard insurance. An Agent for the Federal
Flood Insurance Program should be contacted to determine the actual need for flood hazard insurance.

ARCHEOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE

No investigation has been made by the appraiser and no information has been provided to the appraiser
regarding potential archeological significance of the subject property or any portion thereof. This report
assumes no portion of the subject property has archeological significance.

LEGALITY OF USE

This appraisal report assumes that there is full compliance with all applicable federal, state and local
environmental regulations and laws, unless non-compliance is stated, defined and considered in the
appraisal report. It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been
complied with, unless a non-conformity has been stated, defined and considered in the appraisal report. It
is assumed that all required licenses, consents, or other legislative or administrative authority from any
local, state or national government, private entity or organization have been or can be obtained or renewed
for any use on which the value estimate contained in this report is based.

COMPONENT VALUES

Any distribution of the total value between the land and improvements, between partial ownership
interests or any other partition of total value applies only under the stated use. Moreover, separate
allocations between components are not valid if this report is used in conjunction with any other analysis.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT

The Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") became effective January 26, 1992. It is assumed that
the property is in direct compliance with the various detailed requirements of the ADA.

17-107 88
AUXILIARY AND RELATED STUDIES

No environmental or impact studies, special market studies or analyses, special highest and best use
studies or feasibility studies have been requested or made by the appraiser(s) unless otherwise specified in
an agreement for services and so stated in the appraisal report.

DOLLAR VALUES AND PURCHASING POWER

The estimated market value set forth in the appraisal report and any cost figures utilized are applicable
only as of the date of valuation of the appraisal report. All dollar amounts are based on the purchasing
power and price of the dollar as of the date of value estimates.

ROUNDING

Some figures presented in this report were generated using computer models that make calculations
based on numbers carried out to three or more decimal places. In the interest of simplicity, most numbers
have been rounded. Thus, these figures may be subject to small rounding errors.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS

Although this analysis employs various mathematical calculations to provide value indications, the
final estimate is subjective and may be influenced by our experience and other factors not specifically set
forth in this report.

VALUE CHANGE, DYNAMIC MARKET, ALTERATION OF ESTIMATE BY APPRAISER

All values shown in the appraisal report are projections based on our analysis as of the date of
valuation of the appraisal. These values may not be valid in other time periods or as conditions change.
Projected mathematical models set forth in the appraisal are based on estimates and assumptions which are
inherently subject to uncertainty and variations related to exposure, time, promotional effort, terms,
motivation, and other conditions. The appraiser(s) does not represent these models as indicative of results
that will actually be achieved. The value estimates consider the productivity and relative attractiveness of a
property only as of the date of valuation set forth in the report.

In cases of appraisals involving the capitalization of income benefits, the estimate of market value,
investment value or value in use is a reflection of such benefits and of the appraiser's interpretation of
income, yields and other factors derived from general and specific client and market information. Such
estimates are as of the date of valuation of the report, and are subject to change as market conditions
change.

This appraisal is an estimate of value based on analysis of information known to us at the time the
appraisal was made. The appraiser(s) does not assume any responsibility for incorrect analysis because of
incorrect or incomplete information. If new information of significance comes to light, the value given in
this report is subject to change without notice. The appraisal report itself and the value estimates set forth
therein are subject to change if either the physical or legal entity or the terms of financing are different from
what is set forth in the report.

17-107 89
ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL TRENDS

The appraiser assumes no responsibility for economic, physical or demographic factors which may
affect or alter the opinions in this report if said economic, physical or demographic factors were not present
as of the date of value of this appraisal. The appraiser is not obligated to predict future political, economic
or social trends.

EXCLUSIONS

Furnishings, equipment, other personal property and value associated with a specific business
operation are excluded from the value estimate set forth in the report unless otherwise indicated. Only the
real estate is included in the value estimates set forth in the report unless otherwise stated.

SUBSURFACE RIGHTS

No opinion is expressed as to the value of subsurface oil, gas or mineral rights or whether the property
is subject to surface entry for the exploration or removal of such materials, except as is expressly stated.

PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS, CONDITIONED VALUE

It is assumed in the appraisal report that all proposed improvements and/or repairs, either on-site or
off-site, are completed in an excellent workmanlike manner in accord with plans, specifications or other
information supplied to these appraisers and set forth in the appraisal report, unless otherwise explicitly
stated in the appraisal. In the case of proposed construction, the appraisal is subject to change upon
inspection of the property after construction is completed. The estimate of market value is as of the date
specified in the report. Unless otherwise stated, the assumption is made that all improvements and/or
repairs have been completed according to the plans and that the property is operating at levels projected in
the report.

MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTY

It is assumed that the property which is the subject of the appraisal report will be under typically
prudent and competent management which is neither inefficient nor superefficient.

FEE

The fee for any appraisal report, consultation, feasibility or other study is for services rendered and,
unless otherwise stated in the service agreement, is not solely based upon the time spent on any assignment.

LEGAL EXPENSES

Any legal expenses incurred in defending or representing ourselves concerning this assignment will be
the responsibility of the client.

17-107 90
CHANGES AND MODIFICATIONS

The appraiser(s) reserves the right, at the cost of the client, to alter statements, analyses, conclusions,
or any value estimates in the appraisal if any new facts pertinent to the appraisal process are discovered
which were unknown on the date of valuation of this report.

DISSEMINATION OF MATERIAL

Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report shall be disseminated to the general public
through advertising or sales media, public relations media, new media or other public means of
communication without the prior written consent and approval of the appraiser(s).

The acceptance and/or use of the Appraisal Report by the client or any third party
constitutes acceptance of the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions set forth in the preceding
paragraphs. The appraiser’s liability extends only to the specified client, not to subsequent
parties or users. The appraiser’s liability is limited to the amount of the fee received for the
services rendered.
