Green Building Measures
<br /> The proposed home is more than 2,000-square-feet in size and, therefore, is required to
<br /> comply with the City's Green Building Ordinance. As proposed, the project would exceed the
<br /> minimum points required for new homes; 66 points proposed when a minimum of 50 is
<br /> required by the PMC.
<br /> Noise
<br /> Noise levels with construction of one new single-family home will not change substantially from
<br /> those currently experienced in the area and would be required to conform with the City's noise
<br /> ordinance. Ambient noise levels could decrease for some of the adjacent properties due to the
<br /> shielding of traffic noise by the proposed fencing and building. Short-term construction noise
<br /> would be generated during any new construction. In residential neighborhoods, the City allows
<br /> construction hours from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Construction
<br /> equipment would be required to meet DMV noise standards and be equipped with muffling
<br /> devices.
<br /> PROJECT SITE ALTERNATIVES
<br /> As outlined in the above analysis, staff believes the projects density, development standards,
<br /> architecture, site design, and landscaping, as proposed and conditioned, would be compatible
<br /> with the other homes in the vicinity and not create adverse impacts, and recommends the
<br /> Planning Commission recommend approval of the project to the City Council as proposed and
<br /> conditioned. However, alternatives to the proposal that could be considered by the Planning
<br /> Commission include:
<br /> 1. Recommend denial of the project to the City Council; or
<br /> 2. Recommend approval of the PUD development plan with modifications. The Planning
<br /> Commission could recommend approval of the project with modifications to the
<br /> development 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.
