Downtown Specific Plan Update P18-0050 Simon Property Group Jennifer Hagen/Steve Otto Other The Downtown Specific Plan was adopted in 2002, and serves as a guide for the future development and preservation of the downtown area, addressing issues such as land use, transportation, parking, historic preservation, design and beautification, and economic vitality. City Council has identified updating the Downtown Specific Plan as a priority, has approved a scope of work and professional services contract, and has confirmed a 10 - member Task Force to guide this process. The Task Force has met regularly since January 2017 to discuss existing conditions, opportunities and constraints, and consider land use and policy options for various parts of the Specific Plan Area, including the current Civic Center site. • Status Under Review • Next Steps/Details: The City Council adopted the updated Downtown Specific Plan at its August 20, 2019, meeting. A revised version of the plan will be posted online once changes directed by the City Council are finalized. • Applicant: City of Pleasanton • Staff Contact(s): Shweta Bonn 39. Johnson Drive Economic I Commercial Development Zone (JDEDZ) The Johnson Drive Economic Development Zone is currently the subject of a lawsuit. The Petitioner in this lawsuit alleges that the air quality analysis contained in the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for the JDEDZ was incomplete. The Petitioner also alleges that the economic analysis for the project should have been recirculated for public review. Given the inherent delay associated with litigation involving the California Environmental Quality Act, the City has agreed to set aside the approvals so that supplemental environmental review can take place. Once this supplemental environmental review is complete, additional public comment will occur, and the City Council will consider reapproving the project. Although this project has already been subject to extensive environmental review, the City believes that this is the most effective way to provide the public and public officials with information and allow for reconsideration of the project. Costco is in support of this approach and is a signatory to the stipulation. • Status Under Review • Next Steps/Details: The City has completed and recirculated supplemental air quailty analysis as of July 10, 2019. The recirculation period is 45 days and ends on August 23, 2019. The Page 12 of 20
