The entire Hatsushi property, including topography, has been significantly modified by the site's existing uses and developments. Because Hatsushi's grading reflects the grading of adjoining developments approved in the Specific Plan area and that areas of significant topography will be preserved, staff considered the proposed grading to be acceptable. However, the Planning Commission may wish to discuss the question of changing Lots 1 through 3 and 6 to split-pad lots. This change could, potentially, reduce the height of the 13-foot tall slope bank between Lot 1 and Lot 2, which faces Vineyard Avenue, and the 23-foot tall slope back between Lot 6 and the adjoining properties. Urban Stormwater Runoff The applicants will install a bio-retention pond with the first construction phase in the lower por- tion of Parcel "A" to pretreat storm water runoff before entering the City's storm system. Bio- retention swales will be installed in Parcel "c" with the second construction phase between Road "A" and the Clara Lane development. The applicant's proposal is reflected in the draft conditions of approval. The development's storm water runoff measures will be shown in detail with the tentative subdivision map for review and approval by the Planning Commission. VI. PUBLIC COMMENT Public notices of the public hearing were sent to all property owners and tenants located within 1,000-feet of the subject property. A summary of the neighbors' letters and/or emails follow: 1. Brian and Denise Sereda (809 Montevino Drive) . Query the unusually high traffic volume on Montevino Drive and the means to reduce traffic levels. 2. Darryl and Judy Alexander (849 Montevino Drive) . Oppose the proposed project so long as it shows construction traffic on the EVA to Montevino Drive. 3. Ed and Sharon Nowak (862 Montevino Drive) . To preserve their views of the Livermore valley and maintain their property values, the Nowaks request a maximum height restriction on Lots 12 and 13 of lO-feet above the Nowak property or a maximum building height of IS-feet, 6-inches for these lots. . As an alternative, combine Lot 12 and Lot 13 into a single building site with larger building setbacks from adjoining properties. . No construction traffic on the EVA to Montevino Drive. . Provide construction access from Vineyard Avenue or from the Hatsushi driveway. 4. Frank and Lillian Jardin (751 Clara Lane) . The Jardins do not want Clara Lane used for the construction traffic for Hatsushi's first construction phase. Cited issues pertaining to noise, dust, dirt, and mud from the construction of the adjoining residential development. Item 6.b., PUD-99-I4 Page 18 of24 April 26, 2006
