May 22, 2006 Mr. Steve Otto The City of Pleasanton 200 Old Bernal Avenue Pleasanton, CA 94566 Subject: The Estates on Oakridge; Seven-Lot Residential Subdivision at 5 Windy Oaks Drive (formerly 1680 Vineyard Avenue), Visual Simulations Peer Review Dear Steve, Per your request, we have completed a peer review of the 'The Estates on Oakridge' visual simulations prepared for the property at 5 Windy Oaks Drive The peer review evaluated the simulations for accuracy and realism as measured against current industry standards. The accuracy of the simulations was assessed with respect to building scale and location, grading and roadway design and depiction of proposed landscaping as described in the available project application material. The following steps were taken to develop the peer review of the visual simulations. 1. Available project data was reviewed including site plan maps, site topographic data and lot layouts. Since detailed architectural drawings have not been developed for the site, a prototypical home was developed to indicate the approximate dimensions and architectural style of the homes likely to built on the site. 2. On May 15'h, 2006, Vallier Design Associates Inc. discussed the methodology and project assumptions used to develop the visual simulations with Don Carmickle of Previsualist, Inc. 3. The three-dimensional (3D) computer model used to prepare the simulations was compared with the available project application materials and reviewed for accuracy. 4. The simulations were evaluated for accuracy in depicting the proposed project elements from the given simulation viewpoint locations. 5. The simulations were reviewed in the field on May 19'h, 2006 from each of the five simulation viewpoint locations. VALLIER DESIGN ASSOCIATES INC LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE. PLANNING.
