said the existing bungalow should be preserved and restored as an amenity for upzoning the entire parcel. The Commission created a historic building preservation ordinance ten years ago, but opposition from the Pleasanton Downtown Association kept it from ever reaching the Council. He said the project should either be single - family units at a lower density or multi - family high- density housing that is subject to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Exempting the most significant source of noise is not the proper way to analyze or mitigate noise impacts and again requested information indicating where on the property those impacts could be truly mitigated. He supported Councilmember McGovern's request for some sort of peer review or additional tree study and said he would like the solar study prepared for Mr. Walterson taken into consideration. Mr. Otto confirmed that staff has a good understanding of the issues and would meet with the property owner and developer for additional discussion. Motion: It was M/S by McGovern /Sullivan to return the item to the Planning Commission, with direction to staff as discussed. Motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmembers Cook- Kallio, McGovern, Sullivan, Thorne, Mayor Hosterman Noes: None Absent: None 19. Public Hearing: PRZ -58 -- City of Pleasanton — Introduce ordinance to amend the zoning for three sites in Hacienda Business Park to require residential development meet certain core standards related to density, affordability and unit mix, consistent with the settlement agreement approved by the city council on August 17, 2010 in the case of Urban Habitat v. City of Pleasanton. The three sites are: (1) The W.P. Carey site at the southeast corner of Owens Drive and Willow Road (Assessor's Parcel No. 941-2778-013-00 and part of APN 941 - 2778- 012 -00); (2) The BRE site at the north corner of Hacienda Drive and Gibraltar Drive (APN 941 - 2778 - 011 -00); and (3) The Roche Molecular Systems site, south of Gibraltar Drive between Willow Road and Hacienda Drive (a portion of APN 941 - 2761- 003 -00) Mr. Dolan stated the item is an amendment of the previously approved rezonings in response to the settlement agreement in Urban Habitat v. City of Pleasanton. The amendment addresses minimum density and affordability standards, Section 8 rental opportunities, unit mix, and location of affordable units throughout the site. In addition to the content discussed, the settlement agreement requires a second reading of the ordinance no later than the Council's January 4, 2011 meeting. He :doted the content of the core standards here is identical to what was announced with adoption of the settlement agreement. Mr. Fialho said one of the many issues resolved by the settlement agreement is the adoption of development standards and design guidelines for the Hacienda Business Park. Staff fought hard to ensure the Hacienda Task Force could play a significant role in their development and that the City retained, to some degree, its discretionary review process. This ordinance would adopt the density minimum of 30 units per acre, affordability levels that mirror the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, the way the city goes about allowing Section 8 housing vouchers, a specific mix of units, and that all affordable units would be dispersed throughout the development. He discussed the process going forward, which consists of the task force working to develop non -core standards. The settlement agreement allowed the city a certain amount of time to City Council Minutes Page 14 of 16 December 7, 2010
