ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
<br /> Environmental review for the proposed project was undertaken with the Initial Study/Negative
<br /> Declaration adopted by the City Council for RZ-97-2 in conformance with the standards of the
<br /> California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). There are not substantial changes to the project
<br /> or the circumstances under which the project is being undertaken that involve new significant
<br /> environmental effects or that substantially increase the severity of previously identified effects.
<br /> Furthermore, there is no new information of substantial importance which was unknown at the
<br /> time the Initial Study/Negative Declaration was adopted by the City Council regarding the
<br /> project or its effects, mitigation measures, or alternatives. Any previously identified effects or
<br /> impacts are mitigated to a level of insignificance, with the mitigation measures incorporated
<br /> into the project's design or imposed on the project pursuant to the conditions of approval.
<br /> Therefore, no new environmental document accompanies this agenda report.
<br /> SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
<br /> Staff has reviewed the subject proposal and believes the proposed density, development
<br /> standards, architecture, site design, lot configuration, and landscaping are consistent with the
<br /> General Plan and Zoning programs, policies, and goals including all regulations and design
<br /> guidelines. Staff also believes the architectural style and design of the new home are
<br /> appropriate for the area. Therefore, the project, as conditioned, merits a favorable
<br /> recommendation by the Planning Commission.

<br />elopment standards, architecture, landscaping, or other site improvement changes.
<br /> Since staff believes the project will not adversely impact any properties or the surrounding
<br /> area, and the project has been designed to be compatible with the existing homes in the
<br /> neighborhood, staff recommends neither of the two project alternatives above be pursued.
<br /> PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT CONSIDERATIONS
<br /> The Pleasanton Municipal Code Section 18.68.110 sets forth the purposes of the Planned Unit
<br /> Development District and considerations to be addressed in reviewing a PUD development
<br /> plan. These purposes and considerations are set forth in the draft Resolution included as
<br /> Exhibit A and includes whether the plan is in conformance with the City General Plan, in the
<br /> best interest of public health, safety, and general welfare, and whether the plan would be
<br /> compatible with developed properties in the vicinity. As described in Exhibit A and based on
<br /> the information and analysis provided in this Agenda Report, staff recommends the
<br /> Commission make the required findings to recommend approval of the project.
<br /> PUBLIC NOTICE
<br /> Notice of this application was sent to surrounding property owners and tenants within a
<br /> 1,000-foot radius of the site. At the time this report was published, staff had not received any
<br /> public comments.
