On <br />August 4, 2025, the neighbors/appellants located at 3520 Dennis Drive filed an appeal of the <br />ZA’s action to the Planning Commission. <br /> <br />Per PUD-148 (the development plan approved by the City Council on February 6, 2023), <br />sports court lighting exceeding 8 feet in height requires ADR approval. As conditioned, staff <br />recommends the Planning Commission find the proposal consistent with the design review <br />standards as outlined in Pleasanton Municipal Code (PMC) Section 18.20.030, affirming the <br />ZA’s approval.
