<br />traffic studies, and an effort made to eliminate problems existing at other schools in <br />Pleasanton. Chairman Wright believes being cooperative with the School District may result <br />in their implementation of some of the ideas and suggestions made by staff. <br /> <br />Mr. Swift described the difference between changing the PUD and changing the land use <br />designation. If the school is not needed in the future, it could more easily be recycled back <br />into a business use if the PUD was modified. Also, this issue would not have to go before <br />the General Plan Steering Committee. <br /> <br />Commissioner Barker would like the General Plan Committee to review this issue, and she <br />would like to see the School District perform some type of outreach to the community <br />regarding this possible school site. <br /> <br />In response to Chairman Wright, Mr. McDonald advised that this school site has always <br />been pinpointed for a middle school. <br /> <br />Commissioner Barker inquired what the ramifications would be if the Planning Commission <br />did not initiate this process. Mr. Swift advised that the School District would again ask for <br />approval, which the Planning Commission could not give because of the inconsistency with <br />the General Plan. At that point the School District could override the General Plan and go <br />forward with the school construction. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hovingh stated he would like to reexamine the PUD if the property is to be <br />taken over by the School District and what Prudential plans to do with their allowable square <br />foot calculations. <br /> <br />Chairman Wright noted his recommendation is to pursue a rezoning and ask the General Plan <br />Steering Committee for their input. <br /> <br />General discussion ensued regarding possible problems and situations that could arise with <br />the school being located in Hacienda. <br /> <br />A motion was made by Commi,,~ioner Hovingh, seconded by Commissioner Barker, <br />initiating a process to bring the site into confonnity with the General Plan, and <br />requesting the General Plan Review Committee to provide their input within 14 to 21 <br />days of their receipt of the staff report. <br /> <br />ROLL CALL VOTE <br /> <br />AYES: <br />NOES: <br />ABSENT: <br />ABSTAIN: <br /> <br />Commissioners Dove, Hovingh, Lutz, Barker, and Chairman Wright <br />None <br />Commissioner McGuirk <br />None <br /> <br />Planning Commission Minutes <br /> <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />December 14, 1994 <br />
