D. City has undertaken several actions to meet its Regional Housing Needs Allocation ("RHNA") and to review and plan for future housing and retail uses on the Project Site, including, without limitation, the following: (1) CEQA Compliance. A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report was prepared and, on January 4, 2012, certified by City for the City of Pleasanton Housing Element and Climate Action Plan General Plan Amendment("Housing Element EIR") and Rezonings.

The Housing Element EIR anticipated that a high-density residential project of 345 residential units and up to 59,000 square feet of retail space would be constructed on the Project Site. Upon receipt of Developer's project applications, City prepared and considered an Addendum to the Housing Element EIR and determined that the Housing Element EIR fully analyzed all the impacts of the Project.
