Resolution No. PC-96-22 Page 3 WHEREAS, The Planning Commission made the following PUD findings: 1. The plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: The proposed project provides for the safe and efficient conduct of business by providing more than the minimum required off-street parking, adequate drive-through stacking capacity, and safe ingress/egress between the project site and Pimlico Drive. Traffic from the proposed development will not create significant adverse impacts. The buildings will be designed and reviewed in accordance with City building and fire codes. Adequate access would be provided to all structures for police, fire, and other emergency vehicles. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service facilities are present to serve the site. The applicant will install all required on-site utilities with connections to municipal systems in order to serve the site. 2. The plan is consistent with the City's General Plan: The proposed project's land uses, drive-through restaurant and commercial building, conform to the current "Retail, Highway, and Service CommerciallBusiness and Professional Offices" Land Use Element designation for the project site. The proposed project is also consistent with the General Plan policies to ensure that neighborhood, community, and regional commercial centers continue to provide goods and services needed by residents and businesses of Pleasanton and its market area. The proposed development plan is consistent with the current General Plan Land Use designation for this site. 3. The plan is compatible with previously developed properties in the vicinity and the natural, topographic features of the site: The site currently contains an approximately 2,000 sq. ft. single-story building, paved parking lot, and site landscaping. The existing building would be demolished and the proposed restaurant building and future retail building site would replace portions ofthe existing paved asphalt parking lot and landscape islands. Adjacent properties include the Interstate 580 freeway to the north, a McDonald's restaurant with drive-through to the west, a full service car-wash to the east, and a Bakers Square restaurant, Shell gas station, KinderCare nursery school, and two retail commercial buildings to the south, on the opposite side of Pimlico Drive, at Trader Joe's Plaza. Pleasant Village Shopping Center is located immediately south of the Shell gas station and Bakers Square restaurant. The nearest residences are located on Fairlands Drive, approximately 250 ft. to the south, and the Pleasanton Meadows Townhomes, approximately 350 ft. to the east.
