C. To protect one family dwellings from the lack of privacy associated with multi family dwellings; <br /> E. To minimize traffic congestion and to avoid the overloading of utilities by preventing the construction <br /> of buildings of excessive size in relation to the land around them; <br /> ... and <br /> G. To provide necessary space for off-street parking of automobiles and, where appropriate,for off-street <br /> loading of trucks;" <br /> While we feel the Staff Report addresses Section G, we dispute that 8 bedrooms(with a potential 9th bedroom) <br /> is consistent with"one-family", especially given the evidence that multiple families are residing at this <br /> location,even if albeit temporary. Allowing this many bedrooms, especially given the history of the owners, <br /> and by the owners own admission that they do not control who stays at the residence, this should be, at best, <br /> considered a"Supportive Housing"or a"Transitional Housing"request. The appellants state they need the <br /> remodel for their growing grandchildren,and at least one of their two sons, but they did not seek the expansion <br /> until after the City of Pleasanton red-tagged the residence. Additionally, they continue to rent rooms/space to <br /> non-family members. Approval of this project seems to be a violation of Title 18 Zoning and allows a multi- <br /> family residence to be in an area that is not equipped for muti-family housing, which impedes on all <br /> surrounding neighbors unfairly. <br /> Approximately 4 years ago, an arrest of Antonio Jose Ortega was made at the appellants' residence. Antonio is <br /> the appellant's youngest son(and father of some of the grandchildren the appellants are raising),who <br /> undoubtedly will return to the residence. <br /> The Pleasanton Weekly published: <br /> *Antonio Jose Ortega, 23, of Pleasanton was arrested on a felony warrant from Pleasanton for lewd conduct <br /> with a child. Ortega also was arrested on two other warrants,for possession of a non-narcotic controlled <br /> substance and being under the influence of a controlled substance. He was taken into custody at about 7:10 <br /> a.m. at his home in the 3500 block of Yellowstone Court. <br /> htt•s://•leasantonweekl '.com/news/2013/07/19/two-char Zed-with-robber -at-•leasanton-a.artment-com•lex <br /> This further escalates our concerns about maintaining privacy,especially for our young daughter. <br /> The Robles currently have an unrelated renter and his girlfriend residing at the home, who we believe to be on <br /> some sort of probation, as we have seen him handcuffed and searched by police (his person and his vehicle) on <br /> multiple occasions. The appellants were not forthcoming about this resident at the initial hearing; however, if <br /> they have space to have renters and temporary residents, it does not stand to reason that they are so tight on <br /> space they need to pursue this expansion. We urge you to speak to Detective Nick Albert,with the Special <br /> Enforcement Unit of the Pleasanton Police Department who is familiar with this residence and the frequent <br /> transient residents. <br /> Thank you for taking the time to read this report. Although lengthy, it is important information that we leave in <br /> your hands. We urge you to uphold at minimum the decision at the original hearing. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> gEeot clad s <br /> Glen and Shoni Johnson <br /> ® Yellowstone Court <br /> Pleasanton, CA 94588 <br /> 13 of 13 <br />
