amendment to the Growth ManaKement Element of the General Plan would have to be approved by the City. '- Section 5: With respect to the cumulative effects of continuing building by building development, the City Council finds that potential significant environmental effects either (1) have been mitigated by Project conditions of approval (Exhibit "A"); (2) require mitigation by another public agency having jurisdiction; or (3) cannot be mitigated except by mitigation measures found to be infeasible. The facts and findings supporting this finding are summarized in the Environmental Impact Findings, attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and incorpo- rated herein by reference and as are more fully found in the administrative record of this Project. All references in Exhibit "B" to the "Pro.~ect" are for Hacienda Business Park; all references to the "Developer" are to Prudential and Callahan-Pentz Properties. The City Council further finds that although not all significant environmental effects have been reduced to an insignificant level as defined in the CEOA guidelines, the remaining, unavoidable significant environmental effects are acceptable because the Project ' s economic, social, environmental, and other benefits outweigh any impacts which may occur; said benefits include provision of local jobs in a net outcommuting community; positive fiscal imDact upon the City's general fund; increased tax base and ' diversification of employers insulating the City and community from adverse effects of single-employer labor decisions. Section 6: The City Council further finds that this project conforms to the requirements and purposes of the City ' s zoning ordinance, is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare, and is consistent with the goals and policies of the Pleasanton General Plan. That based on the best estimate of the jobs/housing balance in Pleasanton given development of this project and all other approved projects, the project is consistent with the balanced growth policies contained in the Growth Management Element of the General Plan. Section 7: The City Council approves the application of GUS Enterprises and Prudential Insurance Company for PUD (Planned Unit Development) development plan approval of an approximately 105,998 sq. ft. hotel and related facilities including a 468 seat restaurant on an approximately seven acre site located at the northeast corner of Hopyard Road and Gibralter Drive subject to the conditions shown on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made part of this case by reference. -2-
