and would not need to use the alley on the south side of Buildings C and D along the Arroyo. Pleasanton Garbage Service has confirmed that this layout works. 2. To reduce potential noise associated with the dog wash area, this feature has been moved away from the southerly western portion of the site to the more central area within the community. In response to questions asked at the last Planning Commission Work Session with respect to whether Buildings A and B would be visible when viewed from the southerly Parkside neighborhood, Mr. Ebrahimi stated that they put together an exhibit that shows a line of sight which reflects that at best, only a very slight view at the ridge of the buildings on Buildings A and B is visible. He concluded by saying that Summerhill has been very successful with their projects as they accommodate their neighbors while keeping their projects economically feasible. Chair Olson inquired how the school impacts are being mitigated and if there is a written agreement. Mr. Ebrahimi replied that the School District has a standard agreement that is based on the particular site being developed. He indicated that after reviewing the agreement, it was finalized; then they went to the School Board hearing, and the agreement was accepted and has been executed. Larissa Seto stated that staff will revise the section on the school impact fees in the Development Agreement to reflect that there is now an agreement between the School District and the developer, and the developer would be required to show that they have met those conditions before they can pull building permits. Pat Kernan, KingsleyBogard, Counsel to the Pleasanton Unified School District (PUSD), stated that this is the first time PUSD actually has a mitigation agreement in place prior to Planning Commission approval. He noted that Mr. Ebrahimi and John Hickey were very proactive and great to work with. He indicated that this is a great project and that PUSD looks forward to having them literally as a neighbor with Hart Middle School right across the street. He added that the agreement with Summerhill, as well as that with Ponderosa, was approved at the February 11, 2014 School Board Meeting, and PUSD Superintendent Parveen Ahmadi just signed the mitigation agreements tonight before he came over to the Planning Commission meeting tonight. He indicated that he will actually have counter- signed and recorded documents. Mr. Kernan stated that he knows Mayor Jerry Thorne said some very nice things about the School District yesterday, and that tonight it is his turn to reciprocate some of the comments about the City. He indicated that he was present for the Pleasanton Gateway project when the rezoning of eight sites was launched. He noted that PUSD has been able to get mitigation agreements with all seven sites; the agreements for the two BRIE sites have not been signed, but they are in place, waiting for the project to move forward. He stated that this is remarkable and that it would not have happened without a lot of people. He thanked the developers; the attorneys, including Marty Inderbitzen, Larissa Seto and PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, February 26, 2014 Page 8 of 21
