Building Design 15. All heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, satellite receiving stations, etc., shall be located within the buildings' roof-equipment wells, and shall project no higher than a horizontal plane defined by the top-edge of the equipment screens/parapet walls unless otherwise approved by the Director of Community Development. All HVAC equipment shall be constructed and operated in such a manner that noise emanating from it will not be perceptible beyond the property plane of the overall project site. 16. Any restaurant or café with a fryer or grill that locates in the shopping center shall be required to keep the exterior doors to kitchens closed at all times, and shall be equipped at all times with filtering devices to minimize odors and fumes. Details of said devices shall be shown on the tenant improvement plans submitted for issuance of building permits and shall be subject to review and approval by the Director of Community Development and Chief Building Official prior to issuance of building permits for the tenant improvements. 17. The buildings with flat roofs shall have white cool roofs which are designed to reflect the heat of the sun away from the building, thus reducing its cooling load. 18. The project shall comply with the current City/Pleasanton Garbage Service recycling and composting programs. 19. Appliances meeting Energy Star standards shall be installed as part of the project. The proposed appliances shall be indicated on the plans submitted to the Building and Safety Division for the issuance of a building permit. 20. Energy efficient lighting shall be installed for the buildings. The energy efficient lighting shall be shown on the plans submitted for the issuance of a building permit. 21. The buildings shall be constructed to allow for future installation of a Photovoltaic (PV) system. The project/building developer shall comply with the following requirements for making the buildings photovoltaic-ready: a. Electrical conduit and cable pull strings shall be installed from the roof/attic area to the buildings' main electrical panels; b. An area shall be provided near the electrical panel for the installation of an "inverter" required to convert the direct current output from the photovoltaic panels to alternating current; and c. Engineer the roof trusses to handle an additional load as determined by a structural engineer, to accommodate the additional weight of a prototypical photovoltaic system beyond that anticipated for roofing. These measures shall be shown on plans submitted for issuance of a building permit. 22. Water conservation devices shall be installed as part of the project. The water conservation devices shall be stated on the plans submitted for the issuance of a building permit. 9
