2005 Pleasanton Plan 2025 2.0 Land Use Element 2-12 Adopted 07 21 09 Business Park at the I-580 freeway. The mid-1990s also saw a resurgence in the economy and a new period of development in the park which included corporations such as Roche, Shaklee, and PeopleSoft that acquired large vacant sites and sought approval of projects designed for their long-term space needs. In recent years, Hacienda has continued to evolve with the addition of Pleasanton Unified School District’s Hart Middle School and additional retail development. As of 2007, the park has over 7.9 million square feet of office, research and development, and other commercial uses, and there is still significant development potential, particularly in the area close to the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station. The future of the park as it moves towards more mixed-use development integrated with the transit hub at the BART station will be discussed as part of a major amendment to the Planned Unit Development (PUD) that governs that development. SPECIFIC PLAN AREAS Specific plans provide a bridge between the goals and policies in the General Plan and specific development proposals, and usually incorporate detailed land-use development standards and design criteria. In several areas, specific plans have been used successfully in Pleasanton to implement the community’s vision for future development. Figure 2-3 shows the location of these plan areas. Existing Specific Plans All properties lying within the boundaries of an adopted specific plan area are subject to the land uses, densities, public improvements, and other specific plan requirements. Note that land uses, densities, and street alignments shown on the General Plan Map within these areas are conceptual only, while the specific plan provides additional detail. Below is a list of existing specific plans adopted by the City of Pleasanton. 1. Downtown Specific Plan. The City adopted the latest Specific Plan for this area on August 20, 2019, the result of an approximately three year effort involving citizens, staff, and consultants. The overall goal of the Specific Plan is to improve upon the commercial and residential viability of the Downtown while preserving the traditions of its small-town character and scale. 2. Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan. This Specific Plan area, adopted by the City in October 1989, has been largely developed with a mix of residential, school, park, and institutional uses. As of 2006, Staples Ranch, the remaining undeveloped portion of the Specific Plan, is planned for future development of a continuing-care retirement community, auto dealerships, additional commercial development, and a public park. This development will require an amendment to the Specific Plan. 3. Bernal Property Specific Plan (Phase I and Phase II). The City adopted the Phase I Specific Plan on August 21, 2000 for the 198- acre "private" development portion of the entire 516-acre property. Phase II, the 318 acres that were dedicated to the City by the Phase I developer, was adopted on May 16, 2006 and ratified by the voters on November 7, 2006. Phase I consisted of 571 mixed-density housing units, a “village common” and roads. Homes with second units, in the Bernal Specific Plan area
