Hacienda Mixed Use Rezoning Initial Study 19.1 of the 2003 Housing Element to rezone land sufficient to accommodate the remaining unaccommodated housing need. (At the time the Housing Element was adopted in 2003, this need was 871 units. However, with the approval of the Windstar Project (PUD -82) which would accommodate 350 units, the remaining need is now only 521 units.) Development of these sites with residential /mixed -use development pursuant to the General Plan would requite the following approvals from the City of Pleasanton: Rezone the three sites within Hacienda from PUD -I /C -O (Hacienda land use designation MOIPD) to PUD Mixed Use (Hacienda land use designation MCOIRPD) (the currently proposed action); Adopt, through a public process, a PUD modification to determine the specific type of development for these sites, to consider common Hacienda -wide improvements to facilitate pedestrian access throughout Hacienda and 1:o the BART station, and to adopt specific development standards /design guidelines for mixed -use development; Modify the existing development agreements for Hacienda as necessary to accommodate mixed use, transit- oriented development; and, Approve individual PUD development plans for each site. A public process leading to a PUD modification and new design guidelines /development is anticipated and would be required prior to approving any PUD development plan for these sites. III. DETERMINATION: (To be completed by the Lead Agency) On the basis of this initial evaluation: I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. 4 O9 Signa 4 Date Janice Stern Printed name famil units or if the FAR were greater than a 0.6 FAR. The General Plan does not set any maximum FAR for housing within a mixed -use designation., and the maximum FAR for Mixed Use is 1.2. Draft, Subject to Revision 4 8/31/2009
