organizations such as the Pleasanton Unified School District and the City's RADD (Recreation for Adults with Developmental Disabilities) program, which could result in the use of the commercial kitchen facility. These collaborations could include vocational cooking classes or other organizational use of the kitchen facility. Future partnerships and uses within the community building will be reviewed on a case by case basis and may require Conditional Use Permit approval to be determined by the Director of Community Development. Additional amenities within the community building include a fitness room, craft room, as well as on-site administration offices for both the SAHA property manager and Sunflower Hill. In addition to the community building, the project will include open space areas and amenities including a multi -use lawn area, outdoor dining areas, spa and lounge area, bocce ball court and convertible sports court. The convertible sports court with a basketball standard would be located adjacent to the future single-family homes along the west property line and include an 8 -foot -tall concrete masonry sound wall to reduce sound coming from the sports court. No lighting is proposed for the sports court. The applicant is exploring options to include a mural on the sound wall incorporating the farmhouse theme of the property. Staff has included a condition of approval that allows the option of providing a mural or additional screen trees as well as evergreen vines to be planted between the wall and the single-family homes to soften the appearance of the sound wall. Parking and Traffic As part of the application narrative, the applicant has included an analysis on the proposed parking based on research and surveys done at other similar developments managed by SAHA. The project narrative looks at other projects which include units set aside for individuals with disabilities, although none of the projects are designated are entirely set aside for individuals with special needs. Since Sunflower Hill will be entirely set aside for developmentally disabled, its parking demand will likely be considerably less than 0.51 spaces per unit shown in the analysis. The proposed development would include a total of 31 parking stalls. Based on the applicant's knowledge and evidenced by other similar developments, dedicating five resident parking stalls would be adequate to serve the needs of the residents since very few, if any, residents are expected to have their own cars or drive. Daily parking demand is unknown at this time and would be dependent on the ultimate composition of entities that use the development. However, based on other similar developments, the applicant believes daily demand for property management, caregivers, support staff, residents, and visitors would require approximately 21 parking stalls. Depending on the services needed by Sunflower Hill, typical daily parking would be utilized by the on-site property manager and Sunflower Hill on-site staff, with the remaining parking spaces available for general visitors, service providers, or for other partnerships and/or vocational collaborations with organizations described further in the report. Although not included in the parking analysis, additional public parking will also be available along one side of the street of the Nevada Street extension located to the west of the project site. The Pleasanton General Plan requires site-specific traffic studies for all major developments which have the potential to exceed Level of Service (LOS) D at major intersections and requires developers to implement the mitigation measures identified in these studies in order to maintain LOS D or better. As part of the Irby Ranch development, a traffic study was prepared by Fehr & Peers, to analyze the traffic and circulation for this project. The study found that all analyzed intersections would continue operating at the same acceptable Levels of Service with the addition of project -generated traffic, while the Stanley Boulevard at Bernal AvenueNalley PUD -129, Sunflower Hill 10 of 16 Planning Commission
