CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA ORDINANCE NO. 1470 ORDINANCE APPROVING THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE PRESLEY COMPANY OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA (PUD-89-21) WHEREAS, Presley of Northern California applied for development plan approval for a 100-1ot single-family residential development located on the west side of Foothill Road generally northwesterly of its intersection with Stoneridge Drive, and southerly of Dublin Canyon Road; and WHEREAS, zoning of the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - Low Density Residential/Open Space District; and WHEREAS, based on the Initial Environmental Study, an EIR was certified and adopted by resolution of the Council on June 19, 1990; and WHEREAS, Council received the Planning Commission's recommendations for approval of the proposed development plan; and WHEREAS, the City Council made the following findings: 1. That the plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The EIR for the project has analyzed in detail the potential hazards and effects of constructing 100 homes on the subject property. While there are a number of issues associated with the project, the EIR has proposed mitigation measures which would reduce the impacts to an acceptable or insignificant level. Additionally, the development would be located on the least sensitive portions of the site, and a substantial amount of open space will remain. A development of this scale in the Pleasanton Ridge area would represent a precedent for the community, however, the decision to designate the site as Low Density Residential has already been made, and the project is consistent with this designation. B. The plan is consistent with the City's General Plan. The project is consistent with the general plan.
