Density Residential. The PUD-Medium Density Residential land use category allows a <br /> maximum density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre. The proposed density of the PUD-Medium <br /> Density Residential portion of the site would be 3.0 dwelling units per acre. The remaining <br /> 2.27-acre southern portion of the site would retain the PUD-Agriculture land use designation <br /> and would contain two dwelling units, resulting in a density of 0.9 dwelling units per acre. <br /> When the project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at the work session, the <br /> proposed land use designation for the northern 1.01-acre portion of the site was suggested to <br /> be PUD-LDR (Planned Unit Development— Low Density Residential). However, since the <br /> proposed density for this 1.01-acre portion of the site would be 3.0 dwelling units per acre and <br /> the PUD-LDR land use designation only allows a density range of 0-2 dwelling units per acre, <br /> staff determined the land use designation, if modified at all, should be PUD-MDR, which allows <br /> a maximum density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre. <br /> Specific Plan Amendments <br /> The proposed development would require the following amendments to the NSSP: <br /> a. Change the land use designation of an approximately 1.01-acre portion of the site from <br /> Planned Unit Development—Agricultural (PUD-A) to Planned Unit Development — <br /> Medium Density Residential (PUD-MDR); <br /> b. Rezone an approximately 1.01-acre portion of the site from Planned Unit Development <br /> —Agricultural (PUD-A) district to Planned Unit Development— Medium Density <br /> Residential (PUD-MDR) district; <br /> c. Allow the proposed PUD-MDR lots to access from Sycamore Creek Way; <br /> d. Realign the planned public trail on the project site; <br /> e. Allow the proposed Lot 5 with a PUD-A land use designation to be less than one acre in <br /> area. <br /> Analysis <br /> Land Use Change: Staff does not recommend that any amendment to the Specific Plan be <br /> approved to allow an increase in density for the project. The NSSP clearly intends that projects <br /> should be proposed in conformance to the governing development standards. The NSSP <br /> states the following: <br /> A. OVERALL GOAL <br /> The primary goal of this Specific Plan is to provide a clear plan to guide future land use and development <br /> within he study area, to protect and buffer the existing semi-rural character of current residences, to <br /> protect and restore the natural environment to the extent feasible, and to provide a coordinated plan for <br /> infrastructure improvement in the area. <br /> And, among its land use goals, the NSSP states: <br /> 4. Provide a Specific Plan which facilitates the orderly development of lands within the planning area in <br /> a manner which: <br /> a. Is consistent with all elements of the Pleasanton General Plan; <br /> b. Balances the potentially competing interests of current residents of the planning area, potential <br /> future residents of the planning area, and current and future residents of the surrounding <br /> PUD-135, P19-0030, P19-0031 and Vesting Tentative Map 8528 Planning Commission <br /> 990 Sycamore Road <br /> 13 of 23 <br /> versus MDR; the requested number of lots, lot dimensions, and so on are not affected either <br /> way. <br /> PUD-135, P19-0030, P19-0031 and Vesting Tentative Map 8528 Planning Commission <br /> 990 Sycamore Road <br /> 9 of 23 <br /> than the number of residential lots/homes permitted by the <br /> PUD-135, P19-0030, P19-0031 and Vesting Tentative Map 8528 Planning Commission <br /> 990 Sycamore Road <br /> 7 of 23 <br /> A'17 3. `.r� C� . <br /> P / 34. a a 9 ,e // l'`* ,7^" �, 3 a �r -) <br /> NILW� 1� Ply (7) ,3 •" r �� t ', " <br /> r <br /> 4,, ./;:'!7*. <br /> .'/ i 5 tui' "Pi,,, ryp ( ot, S'L,, i .g,, 1i, I .+� s1. <br /> i� 'Y a 0421 0 0 �I ,�� r •u"' - 36. <br /> ,`a yy�� n2+a /'�. oM 'le' k� W, k <br /> 3S 94 '@ g 'via <br /> R T3 <br /> 1:5,300 <br /> 0 0.05 0.1 mi PUD-89-06-08M, Gabriela Marks, 4210 Rosewood Drive Planning Division _ <br /> January 7 2020 `( �� ""��� <br /> 0 330 660 Feet I Y <br /> I , I I <br />
