PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA RESOLUTION NO. PC-95-42 RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF NEW CITIES DEVELOPMENT GROUP FOR A MASTER CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, AS FILED UNDER CASE UP-95-22 WHEREAS, New Cities Development Group has applied for a master conditional use permit to allow an au pair/secondary dwelling unit option in conjunction with 36 single-family detached houses on a previously approved subdivision (Walnut Glen Estates, Tract 6596); and WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - LDR (Low Density Residential) District; and WHEREAS, at its duly noticed public hearing of June 28, 1995, the Planning Commission considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits and recommendations of the City staff concerning this application; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: 1. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located. Each lot in the Walnut Glen Estates subdivision is zoned PUD-LDR which, according to the approved PUD development plan, allows the permitted and conditional uses of the R-l zoning districts of the Pleasanton Municipal Code; secondary dwelling units are a conditional use in these districts. As designed and constructed, the proposed secondary dwelling unit would be visually integrated with the appearance of the primary residence, thereby maintaining the large-lot single-family character of the subdivision. A condition has been included which requires that either the primary residence or secondary dwelling unit be owner-occupied. This requirement will maintain the single-family character of the neighborhood.
