D D D [KJ <br />b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy or D D [KJ D <br /> regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the pro- <br /> ject (including, but not limited to the general plan, spe- <br /> cific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) <br /> adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an <br /> environmental effect? <br />c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan D D D [K] <br /> or natural community conservation plan? <br />Discussion <br /> <br />a) The subject properties are designated Retail/Highway/Service Commercial, Business and Profes- <br />sional Offices by the Land Use Element of Pleasanton's current General Plant. This land use <br />designation permits a maximum floor area ratio of 60% and a midpoint floor area ratio of 35%. <br />At a proposed floor area ratio of 27.9%, which includes the garden center, the proposed project <br />conforms to these standards of the Pleasanton General Plan. Therefore, this would be catego- <br />rized as no-impact. <br /> <br />b) The existing parcel is located in the Stanley Business Park and is zoned PUD - C (Planned Unit <br />Development - Commercial) District. The City Council approved the Stanley Business Park <br />PUD in December 8,1981, under PUD-81-15 (Ordinance #1010). The PUD approval made spe- <br />cific automotive-related uses, e.g., repair, sales, etc., and a limited range of commercial uses <br />permitted uses. However, the proposed neighborhood commercial uses will require approval of <br />the PUD development plan modification, which is considered to be compatible with the existing <br />uses of the business park and area. Therefore, this would be categorized as a less-than- <br />significant-impact. <br /> <br />c) The proposed development will not conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or <br />natural community conservation plan for the site or surrounding area. Therefore, this would be <br />categorized as no-impact. <br /> <br />10.
