Utilizing Quantitative CEQA GHG Thresholds <br /> 5.2 Thresholds and Use <br /> The GHG efficiency thresholds for residential, non-residential, and mixed-use projects built prior to <br /> December 31, 2030 are presented in Figure 5 and Table 7. If a plan or project's emissions do not <br /> exceed the applicable threshold,then it is considered consistent with the Pleasanton CAP 2.0 and its <br /> GHG emissions impacts (both project-and cumulative-level)would not result in a cumulatively <br /> considerable impact related to GHG emissions and climate change and would,therefore, be less <br /> than significant. If a plan's or project's emissions exceed the applicable threshold,then mitigation <br /> measures must be identified and respective GHG emissions reduction calculations included within <br /> the respective CEQA review document in order to reduce plan or project GHG emissions to at or <br /> below the applicable threshold level.These thresholds are applicable to the following plan and <br /> project types proposed in Pleasanton: <br /> ■ Residential.Single-family dwellings, multi-family dwellings, accessory dwelling units, boarding <br /> house, caretaker quarters,fraternities and sororities, high-occupancy residential uses, <br /> continuing care communities, mobile-home parks, or any combination of these uses. <br /> ■ Non-residential.All commercial uses(including office and retail uses), all lodging uses, all public <br /> and quasi-public uses, elderly and long-term care, hospice in-patient facilities,family day cares, <br /> residential care facilities, supportive and/or transitional housing,sports and entertainment <br /> assembly facilities, all industry, manufacturing& processing,and wholesaling uses that are not <br /> subject to BAAQMD stationary source permitting or the State cap-and-trade program, or any <br /> combination of these uses. <br /> ■ Mixed-use.A combination of at least one residential and at least one non-residential land use <br /> specified above. <br /> Figure 5 Pleasanton GHG Efficiency Thresholds <br /> 3.50 <br /> 3.00 <br /> O <br /> v <br /> 2 2.50 <br /> =0 2.00 <br /> v <br /> L <br /> N 1.50 <br /> c <br /> 0 <br /> .N <br /> ^ 1.00 <br /> E <br /> LU <br /> m 0.50 <br /> (D - 0 <br /> New Residential New Nonresidential New Mixed-Use <br /> (per resident) (per job) (per service person) <br /> Source:Appendix B,CEQA GHG Thresholds Calculations <br /> Draft 27 <br />
