UP- 77 -13, City of Pleasanton Review and consider the revocation of UP- 77 -13, an approved Conditional Use Permit granted to the Pleasanton Lodge located at 3370 Hopyard Road. Zoning for the property is RM -2,500 (Multi - Family Residential) District. Commissioner Narum requested that Item 6.a.. UP- 77 -13. City of Pleasanton be continued and have staff work with members of the Lodge and the neighbors to clarify Condition No. 1 regarding what the City's permitted non -Lodge versus Lodge uses were. She voiced concern that the condition was narrowed down and its intention was not clear. She added that while this condition was being reviewed, members of the Lodge could initiate the sound study. Commissioner Fox supported the continuance and stated that she had previously sent comments to staff requesting that it review the land use Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and make a list of Lodge- sponsored and non - Lodge- sponsored activities and conditions. She further requested that, if the item were continued, staff consider that St. Clare's Episcopal Church, as a state - licensed child care center, needs the parking lot and that activities in the parking lot must conform to requirements. Commissioner Blank announced for the public's benefit that any Commissioner can continue an item one time to be scheduled to the next available meeting. Chair Pearce inquired whether there was availability at an upcoming meeting schedule to hear the item. Ms. Decker replied that that next available date would be April 22, 2009; however, it would depend on when the noise study would be completed, assuming the Lodge members agree to conduct the study. Chair Pearce asked staff if the public hearing could be opened to receive testimony and then continued to a future meeting, leaving the public hearing open. Ms. Decker said yes. Commissioner Fox requested that staff go back to the Millers' letter and comments regarding their concerns about some of the conditions. She noted that one of the conditions staff recommended is that a study be conducted; however, she stated that typically a condition in a use permit would read like: "The noise and decibel levels shall not exceed "x" between the hours of "y" and "z." She suggested that the condition include a limitation in terms of noise decibel limits and that activities be limited to 10:00 p.m. on weeknights and 12:00 midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. With respect to the use of the outdoor area, Commissioner Fox suggested that the conditions be the same as those approved for St. Clare's Episcopal Church when it went through the City process in 2005. She recommended that a moratorium be placed EXCERPTS: PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 25, 2009 Page 1 of 7
