The intent of this effort is to address <br /> recent changes in State law that seek to streamline and increase housing production, focused <br /> on making approval processes more routine and predictable for developers by creating <br /> objective standards in lieu of discretionary review. The Planning Commission, at the direction <br /> of City Council, commenced the project on December 9, 2020. Since the December meeting, <br /> the Planning Commission was asked to visit several recently constructed projects of varying <br /> densities and housing types and subsequently respond to an online survey asking about <br /> different features of the projects (reference Exhibits A and B to this agenda report). This <br /> meeting is structured to summarize the Planning Commission's feedback and solicit direction <br /> from the Commission on ways to incorporate this feedback into the objective standards. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> The project scope for the objective design standards includes modifying the Housing Site <br /> Development Standards and Design Guidelines (Housing DG) such that any provisions of the <br /> Housing DG that would be considered subjective are instead translated into objective <br /><br /> Youth Commission <br /> Act as the liaison between Pleasanton's youth community and the City Council; advise the <br /> Council on youth-related issues; promote an understanding and appreciation of community <br /> affairs among the youth of Pleasanton. <br /> Meeting Time: Second Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m., September-May <br /> Meeting Location: Remillard Conference Room, 3333 Busch Rd., Pleasanton <br /> Staff Contacts: Joelle Glushenko, Recreation Supervisor, 931-3432 <br /> Committee, Commission, and Task Force List Page 2 of 2 January 13, 2021 <br />.d Streets, alleys and paseos should not only connect internally but also be <br /> publicly accessible and connect to adjacent streets and neighboring <br /> development. <br /> P20-0989, Objective Design Standards Planning Commission <br /> 9 of 10 <br />Design Standards Planning Commission <br /> 7 of 10 <br />al facade pattern. <br /> P20-0989, Objective Design Standards Planning Commission <br /> 6 of 10 <br /> design. <br /> P20-0989, Objective Design Standards Planning Commission <br /> 5 of 10 <br />ble for SB35 streamlining. <br /> P20-0989, Objective Design Standards Planning Commission <br /> 4 of 10 <br />e +� .�,� - ` <br /> Cio < °' cit 1 �,. t- ; t+ $. <br /> 4000 <br /> park <br /> t. <br /> rr v m. ♦ k..a 'AY 4b 0f ; .t Zn 47R <br /> w, 1� �s ,,,c,,,< 7?,T`➢ �' bs, is gds [^V I' J .7.no - <br /> ..,e,iv+ y,-' >.io/ "� -.!4 �� •y rr `\-\ G, air L Jbz <br /> '`i �!
