F_~: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the <br />Project which avoid or substantially le~ me significant environmental effect <br />identified in thc Final EIR to a less ~ slgnificimt level. <br />Faet~ in Sutmort of Findinl: The impact will be avoided or reduced based on the <br />following: <br /> a. By General Plan policy, the City has determined that unsprinldcred buildings <br />meet the City's acceptable risk and service provision policies if they are wJthln a five- <br />mince response time. Measure G2a, equipping all habitable structures larger than 500 <br />squ~e feet with automatic sprinklers, is therefore rejected. All buildings over 8,000 <br />squ~re feet, including multi-family and commercial structures, will be equipped with <br />automatic sprinkler systems. All buildings determined to be outside the five-minute <br />response zone for the new fire station also will require sprinklers or alternative means <br />satisfactory to the Fire Chief(PUD Condition .). The findings Under Impact G1 <br />are incorporated by reference. <br /> b. The PUD provides that all street improvements are to be installed to allow <br /> satisfactory response from existing fire service locations, and from the new station <br /> when it becomes operational. All roads into and within the Planning Area are to be <br /> available for public access. Traffic calming features are to be designed to allow <br /> emergency vehicle access. The Planning Area will not have gated roadways that <br /> restrict public access or hinder fire protection response capabilities. <br /> <br /> c. PUD Condition , requires that all public and private streets, driveways, <br /> aisles and alleys designated as fire lanes must be maintained in accordance with the <br /> Uniform Fire Code, and all roads on the site must be accessible at all times from the <br /> start of construction Until the Project is completed. <br /> d. Phase I has sited a 1-acre fire and emergency services station in the Central <br /> Par'gel, adjacent to Bernal Avenue, near the Village Commons. This site has been <br /> selected because it provides convenient access to Valley Avenue north of Bernal <br /> Avenue, and to southeast Pleasanton. <br /> <br /> G. Public Services: Park~ and Community Services <br /> 1. ]l~.ll~_~: Potential for interference with the location of a 35-acre community <br /> pa~k on the Bernal property. <br /> <br /> Mellsure H1. Provide an. option for the City to expand the 20-acre community park to <br /> up to 35 acres, as provided by the General Plan, in a contiguous, appropriately- <br /> co~lifigured parcel. <br /> <br />19 <br /> <br /> <br />
