Resolution No. PC-2003-26 Page 2 The plan is consistent with the City's General Plan. The project site is designated by the Land Use Element of the Pleasanton General Plan for Low Density Residential (<2.0 du/ac) land uses. At a gross area of 1.67 acres, three units would be the maximum density allowed for this property by the Pleasanton General Plan, and the project density would be 1.2 du/ac. 3. The proposed development plan is compatible with previously developed properties located in the vicinity of the plan. The proposed project is situated in a manner consistent with City standards and provides adequate access to the proposed project. Development of the site at the proposed density and lot sizes will be compatible with the low density, semi-rural character of the surrounding area. The proposed development plan is compatible with the natural, topographic features of the site. The subject property is flat and would require no significant grading to accommodate the structures covered by this development plan. All private lots would be designed to drain to the face-of--curb. Excess storm water runoff would be directed into public street storm drains. Grading in conjunction with the proposed development plan takes into account environmental characteristics and is designed in keeping with the best engineering practices to avoid erosion, slides, or flooding, and to have as minimal an effect upon the environment as possible. Requirements of the Uniform Building Code -implemented by the City at the Building Permit review -would ensure that building foundations are properly designed and constructed for the bearing capacity of the sites' soils. Erosion control and dust suppression measures will be documented in the final construction plans and will be administered by the City's Building or Public Works Departments. Adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the proposed development plan. Proposed homes are conditioned to be designed to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code, other applicable City codes, and State of California mandated noise, and energy requirements. All streets meet City standards and are adequate to handle anticipated traffic volumes.
