Ordinance No. Page 2 NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The approximately 0.91-acre site located at 3760 and 3790 Hopyard Road is rezoned from the Neighborhood commercial (C-N) District to the Planned Unit Development — Commercial (PUD-C) District. SECTION 2. The Zoning Map of the City of Pleasanton, dated April 18, 1960, on file with the City Clerk, designating the dividing of the City into zoning districts, is hereby amended by Zoning Unit Map No. 504, attached hereto as Exhibit A, dated October 15, 2019, and incorporated herein by this reference. SECTION 3. With respect to the Planned Unit Development application, the City Council makes the following findings and determinations with respect to each of the considerations for approval of a PUD Development Plan as required by Section 18.68.110 of the Pleasanton Municipal Code (PMC): 1. Whether the plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: The City Council finds that the Project is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare for the following reasons: • The Project would expand commercial uses within an existing commercial district in the City, allowing for more effective utilization of an already-developed property. • The site is adequately buffered from surrounding residential uses by major roadways or existing commercial uses. • The Project is compatible with the adjacent uses and would be consistent with the existing scale and character of the area. • Adequate setbacks would be provided between the new structures and the existing structures on the adjacent properties. • The Project would eliminate the existing internal drive aisle connecting the Project site to the church property located to the immediate south and install a loading space/zone for deliveries, which adequately addresses the church's trespassing concern. • According to correspondence from the Pleasanton Police Department, and a review of service call data for similar uses in the City, the proposed Project would not be expected to generate substantial increased demand for police service. • Because the Project would combine uses on the site (gas, carwash, and convenience store), and is located in close proximity to other commercial uses, it would maximize the potential for pass-by trips, which is a means of reducing vehicle miles traveled. • As indicated in the Initial Study/Negative Declaration, all potential environmental impacts associated with the Project would be less than significant. • Because the proposed uses would be conditionally permitted. the City could impose additional conditions on these uses if unexpected problems were to materialize in the future. 2. Whether the plan is consistent with the City's General Plan and any applicable specific plan: The proposed Project conforms to the "Retail, Highway, and Service Commercial/Business and Professional Offices" Land Use Element designation for the
