Site Layout, Access, and Parking: The buildings within the shopping center area are situated around the perimeter of the site, with the majority of the parking located in the center. A total of five buildings are proposed, with two buildings fronting on Stoneridge Drive (Buildings A and B), two buildings fronting on El Charro Road (Buildings C and D), and one building near the southern property line (Building E). Access to the project would be provided from Stoneridge Drive at the western boundary of the site, and an emergency vehicle access (EVA) only driveway is proposed from El Charro Road (the location of the EVA is subject to review and approval by Vulcan Materials and would be subject to the terms and conditions of a mutually agreeable written license agreement between Vulcan Materials and the property owner). The access from Stoneridge Drive includes two lanes to enter the shopping center with an additional left turn pocket once on-site and three lanes to exit (two exit lanes allow vehicles to make a left turn onto westbound Stoneridge Drive and one lane is a shared through/right turn lane to proceed straight across Stroneridge Drive to Auto Mall Way or eastbound on Stoneridge Drive). Pedestrian access is provided along the perimeter of the site, and a walkway in the parking lot provides pedestrian access from the buildings located at the northern boundary of the site to the buildings located at the southern end of the site. An additional connection to the future City park along the western property line has also been included. An outdoor dining area is proposed at the northeastern corner of the site, adjacent to the corner entryway located at the intersection of Stoneridge Drive and El Charro Road. A total of 569 parking spaces are proposed, including: 420 standard parking stalls, 131 compact parking stalls, and 12 accessible parking stalls. The overall parking ratio for the site would be 1 space per 197 square feet (compared to 1 space per 219 square feet at Pleasanton Gateway). Table 1 includes a comparison of the parking proposed for the Retail/Commercial site and the parking provided at Pleasanton Gateway. Table 1: Proposed Parking Staples Ranch Pleasanton Gateway Building Area 111,957 square-feet 125,351 square-feet + service station Parking (Standard + 569 parking spaces 573 parking spaces Accessible) Parking Ratio 1/197 square feet 1/219 square feet (5.08/1,000 square feet) (4.57/1,000 square feet) Proposed Buildings: The project includes only single story structures. Pedestrian entries are primarily located on the facades that face the parking lot. A perspective drawing showing the proposed shopping center is provided in Figure 3 (the project plans, included as Attachment 2, Exhibit B, contain comprehensive elevation drawings, additional perspective drawings, and other illustrations of the project).
