Resolution No. PC-2020-04 Page Five 7. Whether the plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD District: As currently proposed, the Planning Commission finds that the proposed project does not conform to the purposes of the PUD district. The primary purpose of the PUD district is to allow flexibility in the development of projects, that the City determines are in its best interest and among other stated purposes, consistent with the General Plan and NSSP. The proposal does not conform to NSSP; instead it requests amendments to the NSSP in order to increase density. As noted in other findings, the Planning Commission does not support amendments to the NSSP to increase density. Thus, the proposed development with more residential lots than what is identified by the NSSP is not consistent with purposes of the PUD District. As such, the Commission concludes that this finding can be made. Section 2: The Planning Commission hereby recommends the following to the City Council deny the applications for the amendments to the NSSP (P19-0031) and the proposed 5-lot residential development (PUD-135), and Vesting Tentative Map 8528. Section 3: This resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the Planning Commission of the City of Pleasanton at a regular meeting held on January 22, 2020, by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners Noes: Commissioners Absent: Commissioners Abstain: Commissioners ATTEST: Melinda Denis Herb Ritter Secretary, Planning Commission Chair APPROVED AS TO FORM: Larissa Seto Assistant City Attorney trees. Nonetheless, the proposed project would introduce a higher level and intensity of development than that anticipated by the North Sycamore Specific Plan, which seeks to integrate future development in a manner most compatible with the surrounding landscape, and therefore concludes that the finding cannot be made. 6. Whether adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the plan: The Planning Commission finds that the private driveway entry off Sycamore Creek Way would be located and configured to provide adequate line-of-sight viewing distance and to facilitate efficient ingress/egress to and from the project site. The private driveway is designed to provide adequate circulation for fire, police, and other emergency vehicles. The new homes will be equipped with automatic residential fire sprinklers. In addition, the proposed development, as recommended by staff, is required to follow the maintenance guidelines detailed in the Wildland Fire Management Plan prepared by Olberding Environmental, Inc. for the proposed development. Furthermore, the proposed homes will be required to meet the requirements of applicable City and State codes. As such, the Commission concludes that this finding can be made. existing neighbors; thus, cannot make this finding. ce with State-mandated findings. As noted earlier, staff does not support the proposed five-lot residential development, and thus does not support the Vesting Tentative Map as proposed. However, should the Planning Commission support a version of the PUD that would increase the allowable density on this project site, a conforming Vesting Tentative Map (for 5 lots), or Parcel Map (for 4 or fewer lots) could also be recommended for approval, subject to the necessary conditions of approval.
