EXHIBIT C PUD-118, Mike Carey Work Session to review and receive comments on applications for: (1) certificate of appropriateness to demolish all existing structures; and (2) Planned Unit Development (PUD) Rezoning and Development Plan to construct an approximately 2,032-square-foot, three-story mixed-use building with retail/office space on the ground floor and three apartments on the second- and third-floor and three, three-story, single-family homes at the property located at 4791 Augustine Street. Natalie Amos presented the staff report and described the scope, layout and key elements of the proposal. Commissioner Nagler: As pointed out in the staff report, the code would require nine parking spaces and the applicant is proposing six for the mixed use building, but as I understand the application, there are also a total of six more spaces, right? Two covered spaces per residence. Amos: Correct. Commissioner Nagler: Why wouldn't those additional six spaces be used in your calculation of the total number of spaces being provided. Amos: They're provided for the detached single family homes because they're in garages. There would be a total of 12 spaces on site that are being provided. Per the code, we are required two spaces for each single family dwelling unit and that's how they are meeting that for each one. Commissioner Nagler: I see, so the nine is strictly applicable to the mixed use building. Amos: Correct, and as I mentioned, they are proposing a PUD which does offer flexibility in terms of setbacks, heights and parking standards. Commissioner O'Connor: So Natalie, can you expand a little bit on this office overlay. That's what's driving the two spaces per apartment unit or flat or studio? Amos: Probably more similar to a studio. Commissioner O'Connor: So we're requiring two per studio because it has the office overlay? Amos: We're suggesting that it be two given that's what the code states for parking requirements. Because the applicant is proposing a PUD you can offer flexibility to the parking standards. So just looking at it as what the Pleasanton Municipal Code requires on apartment units based on the number of bedrooms, it would be two spaces per unit. Commissioner O'Connor: Would that change if it didn't have the office overlay, if it was strictly a mixed use development? Amos: It could change because of the rezoning. So if you're asking if he's having the office designation and he left it strictly as office, he'd have a whole different parking ratio for it.
