City of Pleasanton—Stoneridge Mall Residential Project Section 15183 Checklist/15164 Addendum CEQA Checklist FirstCarbon Solutions 159 Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480017/Consistency Checklist/21480017 Stoneridge Mall Residential Project Checklist Addendum_Updated.docx Prior EIR Conclusions The Prior EIR found that future individual development projects could increase demand for school facilities and staff. However, it was determined that school fees, which are set by the State to cover school facility costs to accommodate new enrollment, would be collected by the PUSD prior to the issuance of building permits for future individual development projects. Therefore, with the required payment of school fees, impacts to schools associated with buildout under the Housing Element were deemed by the Prior EIR to be less than significant. Analysis of Proposed Project The PUSD would serve the project site. The closest elementary school, Lydiksen Elementary School, is located approximately 1.05 miles southeast of the project site. The nearest middle school, Hart Middle School, is located approximately 1.74 miles southeast of the project site. The nearest high school, Foothill High School, is located approximately 1.60 miles south of the project site. The PUSD served 14,066 students in 2021, a reduction from 14,471 students in 2020.91,92 Transit-Oriented Development in the City has a student yield factor of 0.196 for K-12 students. Given that the project proposes 360 residential units, an additional 71 students are expected.93,94 Because over 50 percent of the proposed units would be either studio apartments or one-bedroom apartments, this can be considered a conservative estimate. The proposed project would likely increase resident population in the area by approximately 968 residents, which, as determined in Section XIV Population and Housing, can be considered planned growth. As such, impacts from adding new students to schools would not be greater than what was analyzed in the Prior EIR. Furthermore, as indicated above, the proposed project would be required to pay school fees, which are presumed by the State to cover school facility costs to accommodate new enrollment. Therefore, impacts would continue to be less than significant, and no mitigation is necessary, consistent with the Prior EIR. There are no proposed changes, new circumstances, or new information that would cause new or more severe impacts. Therefore, there are no school effects that are peculiar to the proposed project or the parcels on which the proposed project would be located. Impacts would be less than significant and the proposed project would not result in a new or more severe adverse impact that was not previously identified in the Prior EIR. 91 Pleasanton Unified School District (PUSD). 2020. 2020 Annual Report.
