Commissioner Allen: How many total lots in this development and how many are <br />already built? <br />Beaudin: There are 7 total lots and then one is currently under construction. It's Lot 1 <br />down at the very bottom. This is the second of the 7 lots that is coming before you. All of <br />the rest are currently vacant. <br />Commissioner Allen: Are there are any homes that today have view impacts of this <br />home? Is there a view issue? <br />Luchini: There is an adjacent neighbor in this case that's close by and she's actually <br />coming in this evening; Mary Roberts lives right next door on Lot 3, so this would <br />probably be the most impactful of any of the lots to her particular property. She and I <br />had a discussion though. She did some of her own story poles on the site and she <br />evaluated her view impacts and at this point she's okay with the layout of the home and <br />the height to address those issues. <br />Commissioner Allen: Thank you. <br />Chair Ritter: How much water is used on a site like this? I mean is it one truckload that <br />we're talking about? 3,000 gallons or is it 10 truckloads? I agree we want to be <br />conservative with recycled water, but how much is it? <br />Luchini: I'm not sure we can answer that question. I'm not sure the architect would or <br />not, but he may have a better industry understanding than we would in this case. <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED <br />Terry Townsend, Architect: The recycled water is going to come in during the grading <br />operation and since its already a flat pad, it's going to be minimized and basically it's <br />going to compact any dirt that's moved and it's going to keep dust down to a minimum, <br />and that would be it. So, I talked to the applicant. We don't have an issue with using <br />recycled water for those purposes. It's not going to be a huge quantity. <br />Chair Ritter: And I know when I was looking at the water 3,000 gallons costs $300 for a <br />truckload, but then you've got gas and other things, so it's not a cost thing. <br />Commissioner O'Connor: So Terry, just a question for you, if you weren't using recycled <br />water, would you have water on site to use? <br />Townsend: What they typically do is they hook up to the fire hydrant. They use one of <br />the large trucks down below somewhere or use the fire hydrants at the street, fill up with <br />permission from the City of Pleasanton and use that. So we're going a little further in <br />order to get the water because recycled is not available right next to the property. <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, May 11, 2016 Page 4 of 12 <br />
