The project would include the installation of all required on-site utilities with connections to municipal systems in order to serve the new lots. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service utilities are present in the area surrounding the development and are sufficient to serve the new dwellings. Adequate access would be provided to the structures for police, fire, and other emergency response vehicles. The proposed development plan is consistent with the City of Pleasanton's General Plan. The proposed PUD project, as conditioned, conforms to the General Plan standard for density and site development. With two homes proposed on the 1.4-acre parcel, the project is at the low end of the density range for the PUD-MDR (Medium Density Residential) designation. Other applicable General Plan policies with which the project would be consistent include: development of an infill site that preserves the character of the existing residential neighborhood; providing housing within walking distance of Downtown; constructing residential in-fill in areas where public facilities are adequate; and development outside of the 100-year flood zone areas.
