Resolution No. PC-2024-04 Page Two The Planning Commission finds that the proposed project, as conditioned, meets all applicable City standards concerning public health, safety, and welfare. The project will not generate volumes of traffic that cannot be accommodated by existing City streets and intersections in the area. The proposed development plan is designed in conformance with the Pleasanton General Plan designation for this site and all other relevant policies and programs. Any additional development on the subject parcel will be designed to meet the requirements of this development plan, the California Building Code, California Fire Code, and other applicable codes. As such, the Planning Commission concludes this finding can be made. 2. Whether the proposed development plan is consistent with the Pleasanton General Plan and any applicable specific plan. The proposed development plan includes establishing development standards of the R-1-40,000 District and construct an approximately 1,117- square-foot addition to the front, an approximately 65-square-foot attached front covered porch, and an approximately 160-square-foot attached rear covered porch to an existing single-family residence on an approximately 0.99-acre lot. The Planning Commission finds the existing single-family residence and lot size conforms to the General Plan Low-Density Residential land use designation with a maximum of two dwelling units per gross developable acre. The proposed development plan promotes General Plan Programs and Policies encouraging the preservation of the existing housing stock and preserving and enhancing the character of existing residential neighborhoods. In addition to the General Plan, the proposed project is consistent with the intent of the North Sycamore Specific Plan (NSSP). There is no Planned Unit Development plan for the subject lot, but th e NSSP details general guidelines that the subject lot should follow. The proposal is consistent with the guidelines including setbacks, density, and character of the subject lot. The NSSP notes development should correspond generally to the Agricultural (A) district. The project proposes to conform to the R-1-40,000 District standards based on the fact that this existing, subdivided property is approximately 0.99 acres (i.e., approximately 43,124 square feet in size). Given the large proposed setbacks, and proposed building design, the scale meets the intent of the A-district. As such, the Planning Commission concludes that this finding can be made. 3. Whether the proposed development plan is compatible with the previously developed properties in the vicinity and the natural, topographic features of the site. The neighborhood includes a mixture of one-and-two-story residences with a variety of architectural styles sited with large setbacks, reflecting the rural residential character of the NSSP area more generally.
