almost all demand for lower income housing is generated by Pleasanton's businesses. Page 42, Program 4.4: Wastewater capacity seemed to be a looming constraint during the previous HE update. The 2313 units of AMI market rate development will be first to use existing wastewater capacity. It's not clear how the City's analysis of wastewater capacity will effectively reserve a sufficient amount for lower income housing. Page 43, Policy 5.2: It seems a little odd to call housing affordable to the majority of Pleasanton's workforce"special needs housing". In the age of climate change and rising fuel prices, housing for that workforce majority (they earn 50-80%AMI) is really economic infrastructure that assures Pleasanton remains an attractive place to locate a business. Page 46, Program 5.6 (1): SROs are a great format for a car free format. Page 47, Goal 6: Policy 6.1, Policy 6.2, Policy 6.3: Appreciate the consistency of these Policies with CAP 2.0, especially the matching of housing affordability with local wages (majority VLI and LI). Maybe explicitly reference CAP 2.0 live/work emissions reductions objectives. Page 48, Policy 6.5: This Policy will provide an opportunity for more car-free employee households. Page 48, Program 6.2: Appreciate the reference to CAP 2.0. P8, P9, and PI O make most sense when implemented as climate-friendly housing for Pleasanton employees. Page 49, Program 6.4: This makes most sense as part of a plan to house the employees of Pleasanton's businesses within Pleasanton. Otherwise, the bicycle facilities will only be used for recreation on the weekends and LAVTA busses will remain empty. Page 50, Program 6.6 (LD-P 44): Locating and designing housing to accommodate households that don't own and park personal cars. It makes both living and housing more affordable. Done right,the demand among local, lower income employees for"no car units" should increase over time. Thank you again for the opportunity to comment.
