Hacienda Task Force, which has been meeting since March, 2010, has been drafting Non - Core Development Standards and Design Guidelines governing building mass and height, setbacks, architectural features, parking, access and street character. These will be discussed with the Planning Commission at a workshop on December 9, 2010, and the Planning Commission will take a formal action on this proposal in January 2011. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW On October 20, 2009, at the time the City Council was considering the original rezoning for the three Hacienda sites, it also approved a Negative Declaration dated August 31, 2009, which determined that the project impacts, as they were known at that time, were less than significant (see Exhibit D). Because the environmental setting has not changed since August 2009, and the core development standards would not substantially change the nature of the anticipated development, staff believes no additional environmental analysis is required for this project. PUBLIC NOTICE Public Hearing notices were sent to 2,506 property owners and tenants within the Hacienda Business Park, and published in The Valley Times. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Commission take the following actions: 1. Receive public input on the Core Development Standards and then close the public hearing; and, 2. Recommend the City Council adopt an ordinance including the Core Development Standards for the three subject properties Staff Planner: Janice Stern /Planning Manager; (925) 931.5606.; e-mail: istern anci.nleasanton.ca.us Case No. PRZ -57, City of Planning Commission Page 3 of 3
