<br />PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON <br /> <br />ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. PC-97-27 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION APPROVING VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP 6911 THE <br />APPLICATION OF STANDARD PACIFIC OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA <br /> <br />WHEREAS, Standard Pacific of Northern California. has applied for vesting tentative map <br />approval to subdivide an approximately I3.8-acre site into 147 single-family <br />residential lots, and 37 common area parcels for private streets and motorcourts, <br />recreation areas, and common landscape areas located on the south side of <br />Stoneridge Drive between Dennis Drive and Garden Parkway; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD - LDR and MDR (Planned Unit Development - <br />Low Density Residential and Medium Density Residential) District; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of March 26, 1997, the Planning Commission <br />considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits, and recommendations of the <br />City staff concerning this application; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the proposed project is covered by the Environmental Impact Report prepared for <br />the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: <br /> <br />I. The proposed tentative map is consistent with the General Plan. <br /> <br />The proposed tentative map is consistent with the proposed PUD Development <br />Plan deemed by the Planning Commission and City Council to be in conformance <br />with the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan and, therefore, the Pleasanton General <br />Plan. The proposed vesting tentative map does not alter any issue which would <br />change its compatibility with the General Plan. <br /> <br />2. The site is physically suitable for this type of development and density. <br /> <br />Site grading would be designed and implemented within City standards. <br />Preliminary analysis of the Kaiser quarry indicates a maximum possible four-inch <br />deformation ofthe slope bank, measured 150' 0" back from the existing <br />top-of-bank, if completely saturated in conjunction with a seismic event. This <br />degree of deformation would not lead to a catastrophic failure of the slope bank. <br />Therefore, it would not constitute a threat to the health and safety to the owners <br />living within the buildings on the affected lots and can be considered within the <br />
