CEQA FINDINGS OF FACT <br /> FOR <br /> LUND RANCH II (PUD-25) PROJECT <br /> SECTION 1 STATEMENT OF FINDINGS <br /> INTRODUCTION <br /> GHC Lund Ranch, LLC is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development(PUD) development plan, <br /> which would allow the construction of a total of 50 residential units on the 195-acre Lund Ranch ll <br /> property. The project site is presently designated for Rural Density(1 dwelling unit per 5 gross acres)and <br /> Low Density (less than 2 dwelling units per gross acres) Residential uses. The subject property is zoned <br /> "PUD-LDR/OS," Planned Unit Development — Low Density Residential) District. The project plans <br /> designate the majority of the Lund Ranch property for open space uses. Approximately 161 acres (83%) <br /> of the site would be dedicated for public open space use, while 11.1 acres of the two estate lots would be <br /> undeveloped private open space area. The public open space would be owned by the City and maintained <br /> by either the City or the development's homeowners' association (HOA). <br /> The City of Pleasanton ("City"), as lead agency, prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Report(EIR) for <br /> the Project in July, 2014 (State Clearinghouse No. 2003092021). This document was made available for <br /> review on July 15, 2014, for a forty-five (45) day review period. Accordingly, written comments were <br /> solicited until September 2, 2014. The City of Pleasanton prepared responses to comments on the Draft <br /> EIR, and published both comments and responses to comments in the January 2015 Final EIR, which was <br /> distributed on January 12, 2015. <br /> These findings have been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) <br /> (Pub. Resources Code, § 21000 et seq.)and its implementing guidelines("CEQA Guidelines")(Cal. Code <br /> Regs., tit. 14, § 15000 et seq.). <br /> FINDINGS REQUIRED UNDER CEQA <br /> Public Resources Code section 21002 provides that "public agencies should not approve projects as <br /> proposed if there are feasible alternatives or feasible mitigation measures available which would <br /> substantially lessen the significant environmental effects of such projects[.]" The same statute provides <br /> that the procedures required by CEQA "are intended to assist public agencies in systematically identifying <br /> both the significant effects of Projects and the feasible alternatives or feasible mitigation measures which <br /> will avoid or substantially lessen such significant effects." Section 21002 goes on to provide that in the <br /> event [that] specific economic, social, or other conditions make infeasible such project alternatives or <br /> such mitigation measures, individual projects may be approved in spite of one or more significant effects <br /> thereof." <br /> 1 See Cal Code Regs..tit. 14.section 15367 for a definition of-lead agency." <br /> LUND RANCH II(PUD-25)RESIDENTIAL PROJECT 1 FINDINGS <br />
