4.Written Comments on the Craft EIR and Responses to Comments 4-3 The comment requests that language be added to the Housing Elements discussion of schools to include"As one strategy to mitigate possible impacts to schools, the Pleasanton Unified School District collects mitigation amounts on new construction before the City of Pleasanton issues building permits on those plans."Text will be revised; however, the use of the term `developer fees' will remain as it is from the Pleasanton Unified School District's Developer Fee Schedule(Pleasanton Unified School District, 2010). The text on page 4.L-12 of the Draft SEIR, under Schools, second sentence is revised as follows: As one strategy to To mitigate possible impacts to schools,the Pleasanton Unified School District collects developer fees on building plans for new construction before the City of Pleasanton issues building permits on those plans. 4-4 The comment requests that Table 4.L-3 be updated by replacing"Multifamily" with "Multifamily Rental". As the fee is the same for multi-family rental and multifamily for- sale units, the SEIR will continue to use the term"multi-family" in this section. 4-5 The comment requests that language be added to page 4.M-1, stating that some of the parks in the City of Pleasanton are joint-use and are shared with the Pleasanton Unified School District. The comment is noted. The first sentence on page 4.M-I of the Draft SEIR, under City Parks and Recreational Facilities, is revised as follows: The City of Pleasanton's park system consists of 26 neighborhood parks, totaling approximately 133 acres,and 14 community parks, totaling approximately 209 acres, some of which are joint-use parks shared with the Pleasanton Unified School District (City of Pleasanton, 2009a). 4-6 The comment requests that the Housing Element Update and Climate Action Plan address the issue of student safety while traveling to and from school,traffic near school sites, the student's ability to walk to school, and the issue of future school site availability. These issues pertain to the General Plan in general and so not specifically question the adequacy of the Draft SEIR. However, issues relating to safety and traffic are discussed in Sections 4.G,Hazards and Hazardous Materials, and 4.N, Transportation and Traffic of the Draft SEIR. Further, these issues are addressed in the General Plan and General Plan EIR. General Plan Amendment and Rezonings 4-15 ESA/210016 Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report December 2011
