<br />B-6 | City of Pleasanton Sites Inventory and Methodology <br />was found to be consistent with current trends. Please see Phase 4 (Site-by-Site Assessment) <br />for further discussion regarding demolishing and replacing of existing units. <br />Phase 2: Screening <br />Parcels that passed through Phase 1 were then screened using the criteria below: <br />1. The parcel does not have a current entitlement (i.e., not included in Table B-3) <br />2. Existing improvements were built in 1980 or earlier <br />3. Current use is not a right-of-way, railway, waterway, utility, gas station, fast food chain, <br />historic building, or other public use with no near-term redevelopment potential <br />Phase 3: Categorization <br />Eligible parcels were assessed to determine which income levels they can accommodate. Each <br />parcel was determined to be able to accommodate a specific income category given its <br />maximum allowable density standards. The lower income category threshold is consistent with <br />the default density for Pleasanton pursuant to Government Code §65583.2. <br />Table B-7: Income Levels by Density <br />Density Allowed by Zone Income Level <br />< 20 dwelling units/acre Above moderate <br />20 – 29 dwelling units/acre Moderate <br />30+ dwelling units/acre Lower <br />Source: LWC, HCD <br /> <br />Per HCD guidance, sites accommodating lower-income housing should be between 0.5 and <br />10 acres. “Site” means that portion of the parcel designated to accommodate lower income <br />housing needs, which could be accomplished through split zoning of the parcel. All sites <br />originally considered lower income, but whose lot size is smaller than 0.5 or larger than 10 <br />acres were categorized for moderate income housing. However, larger parcels that <br />accommodate lower income housing needs are or would be split zoned so that the portion of <br />those parcels designated to accommodate lower income housing need is between 0.5 and 10 <br />acres (see Table B-8). For example, while the Stoneridge Mall parcel (APN 941 120109403) <br />is larger than 10 acres, the parcel is currently split zoned, and the area zoned for higher density <br />comprises 10 acres currently used as a surface parking lot, and therefore, categorized as lower <br />income. Six of those 10 acres are currently proposed for a high-density residential project (see <br />Table B-3). Similarly, some parcels included for potential rezoning to accommodate lower- <br />income RHNA are larger than 10 acres, but the portion of the parcel available for development, <br />and that would be rezoned for density of at least 30 units per acre, is less than 10 acres. <br />Although the portion of individual parcels designated for lower income is no more than 10 acres, <br />Program 1.7 is included to address how development of larger sites would be facilitated.
