PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA RESOLUTION NO. PC-91-10 RESOLUTION APPROVING TRACT 6362, THE APPLICATION OF A-M HOMES FOR SUBDIVISION WHEREAS, A-M Homes has applied for approval to subdivide an approximately 117.94 acre parcel into 48 single-family residential lots and eight remainder parcels, consisting of roadways and open space areas located between Highland Oaks Drive and West Las positas Boulevard (4440 Foothill Road); and WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD (Planned unit Development) _ Low Density Residential, Rural Density Residential, and open Space District; and WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of February 27, l.99l., the Planning commission considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits and recommendations of the City staff concerning this application; and WHEREAS, the Planning commission has made the following findings: 1. The proposed map is consistent with the General Plan. At a density of .41 DUlAC, this 48 unit residential subdivision lies within the acceptable range of the General Plan Land Use Element density for the overall site (maximum of 116 units). Although the project density is less than the 58 unit "mid-range" density, public amenities have been incorporated into the project that include the recreation center and abundant open space. Geologic and geotechnical hazards, primarily landslides and fault shear zone, have been studied by the city's reviewing geologist as to suitability for development. It has been determined that adequate measures (Le. landslide repairs, fault setbacks, debris walls, etc.) have been included as conditioned to ensure that each lot will have building sites of appropriate "low" level of acceptable risk. _ The proposed subdivision is consistent overall with the approved PUD plan, which was consistent with other General Plan policies and programs when it was approved in June 1990.
