2005 PLEASANTON PLAN 2025 Goals, Policies, and Programs "To Do" 2. LAND USE ELEMENT Program 1.2: When reviewing development projects (especially in areas where there is likely to be the most change and the greatest impact can be made), consider how the following will impact energy use: density, neighborhood design, proximity to transit, proximity to shopping/employment, walkability, street layout, and construction techniques (Green Building). Develop new measures of sustainability based on these factors and adopt minimum sustainability scores for typical projects. [GP page 2-28] Program 1.3: When reviewing development projects, review transportation energy-efficiency measures alongside level-of-service standards. Develop a methodology to accomplish this and then adopt it. [GP page 2-28] 7. CONSERVATION AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT Program 1.2: Identify land within the Planning Area which could be reclaimed as viable wildlife habitat. Study methods to re-establish viable plant and animal communities in these areas. Develop standards to accomplish habitat reclamation which: (1) specify the minimum acreage, topography, flora, fauna, and other characteristics necessary to ensure survival of wildlife habitat areas; (2) specify necessary length, breadth, flora, fauna, and other characteristics necessary to ensure the protection and use of wildlife corridors; and (3) prevent the creation of open space islands, unless they are connected through a series of viable wildlife corridors in accordance with specified standards.

WATER ELEMENT Program 11.2: Develop design guidelines and standard details to enable developers to incorporate clean water runoff requirements into their projects. [GP page 8-31] To Do" Page 1 of 2
