Source: City of Pleasanton Zoning Ordinance, City of Pleasanton While the City uses both conventional zoning and PUDs, most new multi-unit housing developments are processed under the PUD procedure, either at the request of the applicant or as required by the Zoning Ordinance.

The PUD process is used both for projects on sites that are designated and/or zoned for residential uses; and frequently for sites that are requesting either a zone change, General Plan amendment, or annexation into the City for the purposes of residential development. The formal PUD submittal requires developers to prepare a comprehensive development package consisting of site plans, grading plans, landscape plans, building architecture or design guidelines, and case-specific studies such as traffic reports and acoustical analyses. These documents are reviewed by City staff, the public is notified, and public hearings are held by the Planning Commission and City Council. In some cases, the Housing Commission first considers the project to make recommendations and to assess the affordability and compliance with the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance; this occurs during, not after, City staff’s review of the project. The Planning Commission makes its recommendation to the City Council, which adopts an ordinance approving
