Resolution No. PC-02-38 <br />Page 2 <br />2. The proposed development plan is consistent with the Pleasanton <br />General Plan and the Bernal Properties Specific Plan. <br />The proposed development plan is designed in conformance with the <br />Bernal Properties Specific Plan and, therefore, the Pleasanton General <br />Plan designations for this site and all other relevant policies and programs. <br />Mitigation measures specified by the Bernal Properties Specific Plan that <br />would be applicable to the proposed project are incorporated in the <br />proposed building and site design plans and/or are addressed with <br />conditions of approval. The proposed uses -self-service gasoline station, <br />convenience market, quick-service restaurant with drive-through lane, and <br />drive-through carwash -conform to the requirements of the Bernal <br />Properties Specific Plan and PUD development plan. As conditioned, the <br />building heights, setbacks, and separations for the proposed project would <br />become the site's development standazds once approved. The proposed <br />car wash is an ancillary use to the primazy operations of the service station <br />and, therefore, would have a negligible impact on the area's traffic levels. <br />Noise from the dryers would not exceed residential noise standards at the <br />property line. The modification to the development plan permitting the <br />building area for the carwash structure is specific for this project. If this <br />project is abandoned and/or razed, e.g., to make way for a new project, the <br />entitlement for the additional floor azea will expire <br />3. The proposed development plan is compatible with previously <br />developed properties in the vicinity of the plan. <br />The project site is considered to be an infill property surrounded by a <br />vaziety of existing and planned uses including multi-story office buildings <br />to the west, commercial uses and the Alameda County fairgrounds to the <br />north, a planned City fire station and single-family homes to the east, and <br />a planned day-care site and apartments to the south. It is anticipated that <br />this development will function primarily as a support use for the neazby <br />area, including residential uses. The proposed project has incorporated <br />numerous provisions to integrate the design of the buildings with the <br />nearby single-family homes and sunounding area. The proposed <br />driveway entrances provide two points of access to the proposed <br />development for access and/or emergency vehicle access purposes. <br />4. The proposed development plan is compatible with the natural, <br />topographic features of the site. <br />The subject property is relatively flat. Minimal grading would be required <br />to accommodate the proposed project. Excess storm water runoff would <br />be directed into the site's perimeter vegetative filter areas before entering <br />public street storm drains. <br />
