Traffic Engineer Tassano explained the traffic model does include the 400 future housing units at the mall, the mall expansion, the Workday facility, and the 10X Genomics campus. The model shows trips are not going to stay on Stoneridge Mall Road to get to Stoneridge but will divert to Springdale Avenue and then eventually to Laurel Creek Drive. He explained the model accounts for future trips and still shows an acceptable level of service. Senior Planner Luchini confirmed the project is providing 24 secured bike lockers. The City has an ordinance that voluntarily requests employers that have more than 75 employees to prepare a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) plan that creates those incentives and works with the City to reduce commutes. He further explained the PUD is establishing the parking threshold of 3.3 spaces per 1000 square feet for the entire project. Director Clark clarified the estimate for impact fees for Phase 1 is $1.1 million. She anticipates another $5 million of fees in Phase 2 and 3 across all categories including the Tri-Valley Transportation Council (TVTC) and is based on today's rates and build-out. Traffic Engineer Tassano confirmed there is a City standard in place for pedestrian-level lighting as well as pathway lighting. There will be sufficient lighting for pedestrians and bicyclists using the path. Part of the standard conditions is to ensure that the final plant palette will be reviewed by the Landscape Architecture Division and be fully compliant with the City's water efficiency. Serge Saxonov, CEO and Co-Founder of 10x Genomics, gave a background of the company and reasons for choosing Pleasanton. Brian Jencek, Senior Principal for HOK San Francisco provided a brief overview of the property. Building 1 will be facing the street and will be a lively place as it expands to full build-out. He advised the logistics area is in the geometric center of the facility to make sure the edge has expansive parkland with trails, walking paths, large mature trees, and amenities. Alan Bright, Senior Principal for HOK San Francisco, provided a brief overview of the building and the inspiration for the facade and color palette. He described renderings of the building's south entrance which is the main entry, the west side of the building, the logistics area, and view from Springdale Avenue. Mr. Jencek advised 10X Genomics will provide EV charging stations per the building code and provide infrastructure for future EV charging stations as the project progresses. They are targeting LEED Gold- equivalent certification as the metric for the project. He explained the same chemicals are used in other 10X Genomics locations and are well below the thresholds for air permitting. He advised the chemicals used are in accordance with monitoring by the appropriate government agencies including Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department. Michele Hodge, Senior Director 10x Genomics confirmed EV charges will be provided during Phase 1 and not just the infrastructure. She also confirmed there will be secured bike lockers outside and showers located in the building. Mayor Brown opened the public hearing. Steve Van Dorn, President and CEO of the Pleasanton Chamber of Commerce advised they represent close to 700 member organizations throughout the Tri-Valley. He stated they strongly support the project and the Development Agreement. Mr. Jencek stated that they appreciated the entire process and thanked the staff for their hard work and challenging them to make this project better. Mayor Brown closed the public hearing.
