Resolution No. PC-2023-06 <br />Page Fourteen <br /> <br /> <br />MM 4.J-1. In addition to requiring that all project developers comply with the applicable <br />construction noise exposure criteria established within the City’s Municipal Code 9.04.100, the <br />City shall require developers on the potential sites for rezoning to implement construction best <br />management practices to reduce construction noise, including: <br />a. Locate stationary construction equipment as far from adjacent occupied buildings as <br />possible. <br />b. Select routes for movement of construction-related vehicles and equipment so that <br />noise-sensitive areas, including residences, and outdoor recreation areas, are avoided <br />as much as possible. Include these routes in materials submitted to the City of <br />Pleasanton for approval prior to the issuance of building permits. <br />c. All site improvements and construction activities shall be limited to the hours of 8 a.m. <br />to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. In addition, no construction shall be allowed on <br />State and federal holidays. If complaints are received regarding the Saturday <br />construction hours, the Community Development Director may modify or revoke the <br />Saturday construction hours. The Community Development Director may allow earlier <br />"start-times" for specific construction activities (e.g., concrete-foundation/floor <br />pouring), if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Community Development <br />Director that the construction and construction traffic noise will not affect nearby <br />residents. <br />d. All construction equipment must meet DMV noise standards and shall be equipped <br />with muffling devices. <br /> <br />MM 4.J-2. The City shall require developers on the potential sites for rezoning to conduct a <br />vibration study which will estimate vibration levels at neighboring sensitive uses, and if required, <br />provide mitigation efforts needed to satisfy the applicable construction vibration level limit <br />established in Table 4.J-4. It is expected that vibration mitigation for all project sites will be <br />reasonable and feasible. <br /> <br />MM 4.J-5b. Any residential or office buildings shall be built to California’s interior noise insulation <br />standard so that interior traffic noise exposure does not exceed 45 dB Ldn. Before building permits <br />are issued, the project applicant shall be required to submit an acoustical analysis demonstrating <br />that the buildings have been designed to limit interior traffic noise exposure to a level of 45 dB <br />Ldn/CNEL or less. <br /> <br />MM 4.J-5c. Any locations of outdoor activity for sensitive uses associated with the project site <br />shall be designed so that the noise exposure from traffic does not exceed 65 dB Ldn at these <br />activity areas. This shall be done through site orientation (i.e., location of activity areas away from <br />roadways or shielded by project buildings) or with the inclusion of appropriate noise barriers. <br />Before building permits are issued, the project applicant shall be required to submit an acoustical <br />analysis demonstrating that outdoor activity spaces associated with sensitive uses do not exceed <br />65 dB Ldn within these spaces. <br /> <br />MM 4.J-6a. For all of the potential sites for rezoning the City shall require site-specific acoustical <br />assessments to determine noise exposure, impact, and mitigation regarding non-transportation <br />sources. Noise exposure shall be mitigated to satisfy the applicable City Code criterion using <br />appropriate housing site design. <br /> <br />MM 4.J-6c. For all of the potential sites for rezoning, the City shall require a noise disclosures <br />and noise complaint procedures for new residents at the project site. The requirement shall <br />include: <br />a. A disclosure of potential noise sources in the project vicinity.
