BACKGROUND
<br /> On September 11, 2013, the Planning Commission approved an application by
<br /> Pleasanton Gateway, LLC for Vesting Tentative Map 8147 to subdivide the subject
<br /> property into ninety-seven lots for single-family homes, one lot for the apartment
<br /> complex, and nineteen lots for common areas and amenities (such as the recreation
<br /> area and the public trail along the west side of the site), private streets, guest parking
<br /> spaces, and utilities and storm water treatment areas.
<br /> On September 17, 2013, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2078 approving PUD-
<br /> 96, an application by Pleasanton Gateway, LLC to construct 210 apartment units, 97
<br /> single-family detached homes, and related on- and off-site improvements on an
<br /> approximately 26.72-acre site located at 1600 Valley Avenue.
<br /> In December 2013, Civic Gateway, LLC purchased the site from Pleasanton Gateway,
<br /> LLC.
<br /> On July 15, 2014, Civic Gateway, LLC submitted improvement security in the form of a
<br /> performance bond and a labor and materials bond, each in the amount of$6,826,850 as
<br /> provided for in the subdivision agreement to ensure the construction of the public and
<br /> private improvements necessary to serve the subdivision. On July 18, 2014, an
<br /> encroachment permit was issued and construction started soon thereafter.
<br /> On December 21, 2016, Civic Gateway, LLC informed staff that all public and private
<br /> improvements were completed and requested a release of the performance and labor
<br /> and materials bonds. Staff inspected the work and determined that approximately 90%
<br /> of the improvements are complete and ready for acceptance.
