ATTACHMENT 3 <br /> THE CITY OF Planning Commission <br /> � ��o o:ot�' Staff Report <br /> 1 <br /> pL€ASANTON© April 13, 2016 <br /> Item 6.b. <br /> SUBJECT: P16-0826 <br /> APPLICANT: City of Pleasanton <br /> PROPERTY OWNER: City-wide <br /> PURPOSE: Proposal to consider an amendment to the Pleasanton Municipal Code <br /> to allow for concurrent processing of Planned Unit Development (PUD) <br /> Zoning Requests and/or PUD Development Plans with Subdivision <br /> Map applications <br /> LOCATION: City-wide <br /> GENERAL PLAN: Various <br /> ZONING: Various <br /> EXHIBITS: A. Draft Amendment to the Pleasanton Municipal Code <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> Pleasanton Municipal Code Chapter 18.68 governs Planned Unit Development (PUD) Districts <br /> and PUD Development Plans. The chapter was last updated in 1976 with several objectives, <br /> one of which was to separate the PUD zoning process from the subdivision process. As <br /> currently written, the Municipal Code stipulates that no subdivision map may be processed <br /> concurrently with a PUD zoning request or PUD development plan. However, the specific <br /> reasons for separating the PUD zoning process from the subdivision process are unclear. <br /> In 2006 the City of Pleasanton convened a Customer Service Review Team. The outcome of <br /> the Review Team's work was a report that included several recommendations and action <br /> items. One of the action items included a Municipal Code amendment that allows concurrent <br /> processing of tentative subdivision maps with PUDs. This is consistent with the approach <br /> taken in most other jurisdictions in California. <br /> The purpose of this amendment to the Municipal Code is to: <br /> • Implement a key action item in the Customer Service Report; and <br /> • Make better use of staff, Commission and Council time by processing zoning and <br /> tentative subdivision maps (or minor subdivision/parcel map) applications <br /> simultaneously. <br />
