Program 3.1- Encourage the EBRPD to provide public access to the Pleasanton Ridgelands Park from as many points as feasible, including Foothill Road, Palomares Road, Palo Verde Road, and Dublin Canyon Road. Program 3.2- New development adjacent to or within the Plan Area should provide pedestrian access and/or staging area(s) to enable present or future connections to the Pleasanton Ridgelands Park. Program 3.3- Encourage lands of EBRPD, HARD, Pleasanton, and other public agencies to be cooperafively used for public park purposes. Program 3.4- Encourage EBRPD to obtain public vehicular access to the Pleasanton Ridgelands Park from a point as close to 1-580 as possible and following roughly the Cowing Road alignment, as shown on the EBRPD's "A+B+C" alternative of the Pleasanton Ridgelands Regional Park Feasibility Study, (March 1986). Policy 4. Encourage the establishment of permanent protection for open space uses through the use of fee purchase, agricultural/open space easements, subdivision exactions, or other means. Program 4.1- Cluster new development in areas capable of being served, and secure agricultural/open space conservation easements as a condition of project approval. Program 4.2- Require that any urban use mitigate impacts on and enhance publicly accessible open space by paying mitigation fees and/or by dedicating conservation easements on lands within the Plan Area. Program 4.3- Adopt an open space acquisition program to purchase in fee or easement lands which are particularly sensitive to development. Policy 5, Require that development, whether individual house, rural subdivision, or other urban-use, minimize its impact on environmentally sensitive areas, minimize its impact on agricultural open space uses (primarily grazing), and minimize its impact on urban services. 4
