■ PLEASANTON TOD STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES: BART PROPERTY <br /> Note to reader: <br /> These draft TOD Guidelines apply only to the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) owned <br /> property (the "BART Property") within the City of Pleasanton, located at the Dublin/Pleasanton BART <br /> Station adjacent to the Hacienda Business Park ("Hacienda"). Following adoption by the City, the intent <br /> is to incorporate these standards and guidelines into the already adopted Hacienda TOD Standards and <br /> Design Guidelines which apply to other parcels within the half-mile distance from the BART station. We <br /> have included the Purpose,Vision Statement, and TOD Framework sections from the adopted Hacienda <br /> TOD document so there is context to evaluate the proposed BART property guidelines. <br /> We have applied a similar approach to the BART property as was used for the other TOD sites—creating <br /> a circulation, access and open space framework combined with a range of feasible building options to <br /> provide guidance for future TOD development.The street character, density and mix of buildings types <br /> follows the direction identified by Planning Commission and Council that this location adjacent to the <br /> BART station warrants a higher intensity of office, residential, hotel and retail uses, and assumes that <br /> structured parking will be necessary to support those activities, even with a higher percentage of transit <br /> ridership for those tenants. <br /> There is a desire to maintain the existing BART commuter parking spaces. In the event the BART line is <br /> extended to the east toward Livermore, the proposed parking strategy can accommodate fewer transit <br /> commuters from the Livermore and the Central Valley and support the needs of nearby residents, <br /> workers and local shoppers as part of a parking district. Given the large size of the parcel,we have <br /> shown various structured parking options that reinforce the TOD Village character and a phased <br /> development approach that can respond to shifting market demand, rents and cost parameters over <br /> time. <br /> June 17, 2011 2 WORKSHOP DRAFT <br />
