counted in residential density calculations and do not require GMUAs per the GMO and <br /> Pleasanton Municipal Code Section 18.106.030(A). If the Council approves the <br /> requested GMUAs, a total of 100 GMUAs would be issued to-date this calendar year, <br /> below the allocation limit. The Growth Management Agreement for the project is <br /> included as Attachment 2. <br /> PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION <br /> The Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 13, 2016, to review the <br /> proposed project and received public testimony. The staff report and draft minutes <br /> excerpt of this meeting are provided in Attachments 4 and 5. The Commissioners <br /> recommended that the conditions of approval be revised to provide further clarification <br /> on various items related to the development. Modifications to the conditions primarily <br /> pertained to the use of wells on the project site. The Commission unanimously <br /> recommended the a pp roval of the proposed a pp lication to the City Council, with the <br /> modified conditions. <br /> PUD FINDINGS <br /> Please refer to the attached Planning Commission staff report (pages 12-14 of <br /> Attachment 4) for a discussion of the considerations needed to approve the proposed <br /> PUD Development Plan. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT & NOTICE <br /> Notices regarding the City Council public hearing were mailed to the surrounding <br /> property owners and tenants within a 1,000-foot radius of the project site. The location <br /> and noticing maps are included in Attachment 4, Exhibit F. Previous public comments, <br /> including supplemental material provided to the Planning Commission, are included in <br /> Attachment 4, Exhibit E. At the time of report publication, staff had not received any <br /> public comments regarding the Council notice. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT <br /> A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) was certified for the Housing <br /> Element update in 2011. The SEIR done for the Housing Element update assumed that <br /> the General Plan land use designation of Rural Density Residential and the Zoning <br /> Designation of A (Agriculture) District allowed for one dwelling unit per five acres of land <br /> (three units maximum). The proposed three-unit development is therefore substantially <br /> consistent with the assumptions of the 2011 Housing Element update, which was <br /> analyzed in the SEIR. The SEIR provided analysis at a programmatic level. In order to <br /> provide additional project-level analysis, the applicant provided an additional Arborist <br /> Report, Biological Resources Analysis, Geotechnical Investigation, Noise Assessment <br /> Study, and Health Risk Assessment Memorandum. The assessments identified <br /> measures sufficient to reduce project impacts to a less-than-significant level, and these <br /> measures are pp <br /> incorporated as conditions of approval. In addition, the technical studies <br /> P <br /> identified no new information or changed circumstances that would require <br /> supplemental environmental review, pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act <br /> (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15162. Therefore, no additional environmental document <br /> accompanies this report. <br /> Page 7 of 8 <br /> L <br />
