Diagram, and Zoning Map. These discrepancies were sorted into two lists, including those shown on DSP "Map A" that are proposed to be addressed through map revisions at the time of the adoption of the draft specific plan; and "Map B" which would be subject to consideration after adoption of the plan, with additional outreach to property owners and other interested parties. Since a subset of Map A properties require zoning map revisions (alone or together with General Plan or Specific Plan land use diagram amendments), and these amendments would be subject to a separate action by the City Council, staff has used Map A to develop a refined map, showing only these properties, keyed to a list indicating existing and proposed zoning designations, shown in a table. The table and maps are part of Exhibit F and Exhibit G, attached. Adoption of Draft Municipal Code Amendments State law requires conformance between the General Plan, a specific plan, and applicable zoning regulations that serve to implement the policies and programs of either document. The draft specific plan includes several policies and programs that necessitate updates to various existing sections of Pleasanton Municipal Code Title 18: Zoning. These amendments are generally either to add zoning standards where they do not exist today (e.g., allowable land uses and development standards for the newly-created MU-T and MU-D districts), or to update sections of the PMC that would be inconsistent with policies of the DSP once it is adopted. A complete draft of the recommended amendments to the Pleasanton Municipal Code is included as part of Exhibit H, attached. Proposed amendments, each of which is consistent with the Draft DSP, are summarized below. Chapter 17.24 — Transportation Systems Management. Amendments to this chapter would allow for an area subject to a business association or management group (such as PDA) to be defined as a "large employer" for the purposes of implementing Transportation Demand Management programs intended to encourage use of transit and alternative transportation modes. Chapter 18.08 - Definitions. This existing PMC chapter has been amended to add various definitions consistent with, or necessary to apply standards that implement, policies included in the DSP. New definitions include: o Active Ground-Floor Uses o Mixed Use development. Note that, as proposed, "mixed use" would be defined as any combination of commercial and/or residential uses (i.e. a project containing office and retail uses would be considered mixed use, as would a project containing residential and retail uses). o Live-Work Unit Section 18.44.080— Permitted and Conditional Uses: This existing section and related Table 18.44.080 lists permitted, conditionally-permitted, and prohibited land uses in various non-residential zoning districts throughout the city. Amendments have been included to reflect the two new mixed use land use districts; and, through footnote annotations, to note which uses are and are not permitted as ground-floor uses within the Active Ground-Floor Overlay. Note that, per the Task Force's direction, financial institutions (which includes banks) are not considered to be active uses, and would no longer be permitted or permitted with approval of a Downtown Specific Plan Planning Commission 10 of 15 fic Plan Planning Commission 7 of 15 of 15
