Mr. Tassano replied that was correct. He stated that Chick -fil -A is a brand new use so <br />staff had to look at adding its volume on top of what staff believes will take place in the <br />future. <br />Commissioner Allen referred to the section on Community Character Element on <br />page 13 of the staff report: <br />Community Character Element <br />Goal 4: Enhance the appearance of major City entryways. <br />Policy 7: Improve the visual quality of entryways to Pleasanton. <br />Program 7.1: As part of the design review process, encourage the installation of <br />distinctive landscaping, and discourage advertising signage and bright franchise <br />colors at major street entryways to the City. <br />Program 7.2: The City should be particularly sensitive to aesthetic considerations <br />when land -use planning in areas adjacent to City entryways. <br />Program 7.4: Give the Hopyard /I -580 area a high priority for visual improvement <br />when making land -use and public investment decisions. <br />Policy 16: Discourage franchise and prototype architecture and signage. <br />She stated that she was not around when these were created and requested staff to <br />provide a little bit of history on what drove these policies and what was most important <br />in the thinking for these policies. <br />Mr. Dolan replied that he was not in the meetings when this language was decided upon <br />but that it is a relatively common theme. He stated that at its entrances to the <br />community, the City does not want a lot of visual clutter and land uses whose design is <br />often associated with fast -food restaurants with lots of bright colors and buildings with <br />standardized architecture and big pylon signs that could be seen from as far away as <br />possible. He indicated that when this use was evaluated, although it is a fast -food <br />establishment, staff was able to recommend approval of the project and found it to be <br />consistent with these Community Character Policies because the building is nicely <br />designed, does not have any garish colors, does not have big signage, and has an <br />architectural design that is at least as nice as or nicer than anything else in that <br />shopping center. <br />Commissioner Ritter asked staff what the stacking count for In -N -Out Burger drive -thru <br />is. He stated that it looks like it has about 20 but could be double; it just never seems <br />big enough on a Friday night. <br />Ms. Soo replied that she does not know what the stacking count is. <br />EXCERPT: PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, October 22, 2014 Page 3 of 12 <br />
