P24-0291, 6455 Owens Drive, Suite 500 Planning Commission 6 of 9 Sustainability Program 2.2: Encourage the reuse of vacant and underutilized parcels and buildings within existing urban areas. Industrial, Commercial and Office Policy 13: Ensure that neighborhood, community, and regional commercial centers provide goods and services needed by residents and businesses of Pleasanton and its market area. Land Use The subject site is zoned Planned Unit Development-Industrial/Commercial-Office (PUD-I/C-O) District. The current PUD zoning permits office, commercial, R&D, and light industrial uses, and requires CUP approval for uses such as gymnasiums and health clubs. Therefore, if the CUP were granted, the proposed gymnasium would be consistent with the applicable land use regulations. One of the primary concerns in reviewing a CUP application is the effect of a proposed use on surrounding uses. The proposed use would be located in an existing multi-tenant building where the current tenants solely include office uses. The adjacent sites and buildings consist of similar uses, but also include some commercial, R&D, light industrial, educational/tutoring and daycare uses. There are no residential uses within 1,000 feet of the proposed use. The proposed use is similar to other personal recreation/fitness uses within the area and in other similar land use settings such as Valley Business Park and Hacienda. To be sensitive to the other tenants within the subject building and the surrounding buildings and to ensure the proposed use would have minimal impact in terms of parking and circulation, the proposed use would operate by appointment only, have defined operating times that have minimal operating hours that would overlap with other uses in the building/area, and have flexible attendance times so not all clients would arrive and depart at the same time capped at a maximum of 22 people on-site at any one time. Therefore, if the CUP were granted, the proposed use would be compatible with the surrounding uses. Should future problems arise with the proposed use, the City would have the ability to bring the application back to the Planning Commission to specify additional mitigation, or possible permit revocation, if necessary. Based on the discussion above, staff believes such an action would be unlikely as other similar fitness-related uses are operating within the area and in other similar land use settings, such as Valley Business Park and Hacienda, with no issues reported to the City. In addition, staff has included conditions of approval that will ensure the proposed use will not generate noise, traffic, or parking shortages such that surrounding uses would be adversely affected. Therefore, if the CUP were granted, staff believes the use would be compatible with the surrounding uses, and from a land use perspective, finds the proposed use to be acceptable on the subject site. Parking As previously mentioned, there is one existing, approximately 28,000-square-foot, single-story multi-tenant building on the subject site and a total of 108 on-site parking spaces. The parking ratio at the subject site is one space per 260 square feet of gross floor area. Based on this
