Section 2: With respect to the Planned Unit Development application, PUD-135, the Planning Commission 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 Planning Commission recommends that the City Council find that the proposed Project, as conditioned, meets all applicable City standards concerning public health, safety, and welfare. The subject development would include the installation of all required on-site utilities with connections to municipal systems in order to serve the new lots. The Project would be compatible with the adjacent uses and the design criteria listed in the design guidelines, which would require new homes to be constructed consistent with the existing residential scale and character of the area. Adequate setbacks have been required between the new dwellings and the existing structures on the adjacent properties. The Project will not generate volumes of traffic that cannot be accommodated by existing City streets and intersections in the area. The proposed homes will be designed to meet the requirements of the California Building Code, California Fire Code, and Planning Commission 990 Sycamore Road 3 of 6
