<br />PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON <br /> <br />ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. PC-96-64 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF THE APPLICATION OF DELTA <br />PROPERTIES, AS FILED UNDER CASE PUD-96-13 <br /> <br />WHEREAS, Delta Properties has submitted an application for a Planned Unit Development <br />rezoning to permit additional commercial uses for this site within the Pleasanton <br />Park PUD and development plan approval to construct an approximately 49,250 <br />square foot retail center, a 126-suite hotel (66,800 square foot Candlewood Hotel), <br />a 2,900 square foot fast food restaurant (In-n-Out Burger), and a maximum 8,500 <br />square foot restaurant on an approximately nine-acre site located on the northeast <br />corner of Owens Drive and Johnson Drive; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - I/C-O <br />(Industrial/Commercial-Office) District; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of August 28, 1996, the Planning <br />Commission, after considering all public testimony, relevant exhibits, and <br />recommendations of the City staff concerning this application, recommended <br />approval of the proposed negative declaration for Case PUD-96-13; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: <br /> <br />A The plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare: <br /> <br />The site is located along fully-developed streets and near signalized intersections. <br />Minimal street improvements in the form of widening Owens Drive -- an <br />improvement already planned for in the City's Capital Improvement Program for <br />this fiscal year -- is necessary to alleviate traffic congestion from this and other <br />future developments in the North Pleasanton area. Public sidewalks already exist <br />along the streets and adequate pedestrian access to and within the site has been <br />provided for. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service facilities <br />are present in the area surrounding the development. The project would include <br />the installation of all required on-site utilities with connections to municipal <br />systems in order to serve the site. <br /> <br />The applicant is proposing to abandon an existing public street (Johnson Court), <br />(an underutilized street providing limited access to only three properties). A <br />private driveway will serve tlte same purpose with the added benefit of being <br />maintained by the private property owners. <br />
