and zoning district. The Planning Commission may recommend approval, approval with
<br /> conditions, or denial of the application to the City Council.
<br /> BACKGROUND
<br /> The property at 2215 Martin Avenue is located near the north end of Martin Avenue and is part
<br /> of the Mohr-Martin area, generally defined by Martin Avenue, Mohr Avenue, the former
<br /> Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way, and Stoneridge Drive. The Mohr-Martin area comprises
<br /> predominantly residential uses of varying densities and home designs. Many of the properties
<br /> within the area were originally located in unincorporated Alameda County, but were
<br /> progressively annexed into the City of Pleasanton during the 1990's. Thus, many of these
<br /> properties were subdivided and developed in conformance to planning, zoning, and
<br /> construction standards of Alameda County.
<br /> On April 1 , 1997, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1709 for RZ-97-2, which prezoned the
<br /> subject property to the PUD-LDR District as part of a larger 34.5-acre area, for a maximum
<br /> density "approaching" 2.0 dwelling units per acre'. The property was formally annexed into the
<br /> City of Pleasanton in 1997.
<br /> In 2003, City Council approved PUD-97 at 2201 Martin Avenue, a property north of the subject
<br /> site, which included a similar proposal to subdivide a property into two parcels and retain the
<br /> existing home and site improvements on the eastern parcel.
<br /> In addition to the subject applications being considered for 2215 Martin Ave, two other similar
<br /> applications are forthcoming for the properties located at 2207 Martin Avenue (PUD-140) and
<br /> 0 Trenery Drive (PUD-142). Staff notes, although similar in scope, these three requests are
<br /> unrelated applications for three separate properties and property owners.
<br /> SITE AND AREA DESCRIPTION
<br /> The subject property is a flat, 1 .67-acre site located between Martin Avenue and Dennis Drive
<br /> and is developed with an approximately 6,139-square-foot two-story home with an attached
<br /> garage built in 1987 (see Figure 1). There are several mature trees and shrubs along the side
<br /> property lines with additional established landscaping scattered throughout the front of the
<br /> gated existing home. Single-family homes are located north and west, two vacant are located
<br /> south, and Alameda Flood Control property is located east, across Martin Avenue, of the
<br /> subject site (see Figures 2 and 3). Existing houses in the area are both one- and two-story and
<br /> sited appropriately with their respective lot size.
<br /> 1 The Agenda Report for this item clarifies the allowable density as "maximum density approaching 2 du/ac (i.e.
<br /> 1.999...du/ac).
