City of Pleasanton 2023-2031 (6th Cycle) Housing Element Update <br />Errata Final EIR <br /> <br /> <br />3-22 FirstCarbon Solutions <br />https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480022/EIR/4 - Final EIR/21480022 Sec03-00 Errata.docx <br />are within PUD district, and as part of the Housing Element Update, the potential sites for <br />rezoning would be rezoned to allow for residential development under a PUD district. To the <br />extent projects may be subject to review through the PUD process, the PUD zoning would <br />provide flexibility in residential development standards and housing types and reviewed in <br />accordance with Objective Design Standards currently under development by the City, in <br />alignment with the applicable objective design standards established by the City with the <br />intent of ensuring such projects are developed in a manner that meets desired community <br />character and are compatible with existing development. <br />Pages 3.10-13 and 3.10-14; Last Paragraph on Page 3.10-13 and First Paragraph on Page 3.10- <br />14 <br />To provide clarification, the following paragraph has been revised: <br />The Housing Element Update includes policies and programs that are meant to ensure logical <br />and orderly development and require discretionary review consistent with the Pleasanton <br />Zoning Ordinance. For instance, Policy 4.1 of the Housing Element Update would result in <br />the development of guidelines and standards for residential and mixed-use development <br />that would incorporate objective standards Objective Design Standards whenever possible <br />which would ensure one set of objective standards Objective Design Standards used to <br />evaluate all projects (Program 4.2). With respect to the sites zoned for densities above 30 <br />du/acre, which includes the Dublin-Pleasanton BART station property, Policy 6.1 requires <br />those properties to be dispersed throughout the community. As described in Chapter 2, <br />Project Description, the potential sites for rezoning were chosen based on seven criteria, and <br />as shown in Exhibit 2-3, the high-density sites are dispersed throughout the city, consistent <br />with Policy 6.1. Program 6.1 requires the City to adopt Objective and Design and <br />Development Standards that would ensure that properties are developed at appropriate <br />height limits, with compatible FARs, setbacks, massing, open space and parking <br />requirements, and also includes approval criteria to ensure that projects can achieve their <br />assigned densities while mitigating potential incompatibilities between those higher density <br />projects and adjacent uses by implementing standards such as height limits, FAR, setbacks, <br />massing, and open space. This would ensure that high-density projects are compatible with <br />existing development. Moreover, as the City receives development applications for <br />subsequent development consistent with the Housing Element Update, those applications <br />would be reviewed by the City for compliance with the goals, policies, and programs of the <br />Municipal Code. <br />Page 3.10-14, Third Full Paragraph <br />In response to FOOTHILL-4, the following paragraph has been revised: <br />Urban Growth Boundary (Measure FF) <br />All the potential sites for housing are within the UGB apart from Site 22 (Merritt) Site 1 <br />(Lester). The eastern half of Site 22 (Merritt) Site 1 (Lester) is within the UGB while the <br />western half lies just outside the UGB. Pursuant to Policy 22 of Chapter 2, Land Use Element, <br />of the General Plan, no development within this site would occur beyond the UGB. Once the
