RESOLUTION NO. 77-263 Page 2. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON DOES RE- SOLVE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The City Council reviewed the contents of Resolution No. 77-66 (Environmental Impact Guidelines and Procedures) as they pertain to the requirements for Negative Declarations and Environmental Impact Reports and determines that the pro- posed rezoning requested in PUD-77-6 would not have a signifi- cant effect upon the environment to require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report since the possible adverse effects on the environment from the project can and will be mitigated so that said effects will be insignificant. Section 2. The mitigation measures which will be undertaken to reduce the possible adverse effects on the environment by PUD-77-6 are as follows: Site Impacts: The visual impact of the project will be mitigated by requiring the project to be built in accordance with the plans submitted to the City Council; requiring sufficient off-street parking to eliminate the location of cars on the street; requiring the screening of all mechanical equipment, whether on the ground or on the structures; requiring the installation of landscaping and maintenance of the same and requir- ing that all utilities be underground. (See Conditions 1, 3, 8, 9, 14, 22 and 25) Traffic: Traffic impacts from this development will be minimized by its location upon, initially, a widely separated two-lane road with access to a major city thoroughfare. The design of the road would be to in- sure efficient movement of traffic with little conges- tion. (See Conditions 17, 21 and 23) Resource Consumption: The project will be required to meet energy conservation standards of Pacific Gas and Electric and include water conservation devices in all units. (See Conditions 15 and 16) Noise: In addition to the construction of a portion of the Del Valle Parkway, which will allow an effici- ent movement of traffic, in order to diminish noise impacts from the project, mechanical equipment located on the site will be designed in such a manner as not to be a noise problem. (See Condition 6) Lighting: Lighting on the project is designed in order to eliminate the possibility of glare on adjoining uses. (See Condition 10) Vegetation Loss: Although the project will displace natural vegetation, the development will be landscaped as required by the development plans and a recreational easement will be located adjacent to the property in order to allow recreational uses along the Arroyo del Valle, (See Conditions 1 and 18)
