Zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development)-Commercial District. A negative declaration of environmental impacts will also be considered. This matter was continued indefinitely at the applicant's request. RZ-84-10, City of Pleasanton Application of the Planning Commission to amend certain sections of the zoning code as they pertain to temporary subdivision and real estate signs adjacent to freeways. The Planning Commission may recommend any action on this matter deemed to be in the public interest. Mr. Harris presented the staff report indicating that staff wasn't sure which alternative would be best. The City Attorney has advised staff, however, that he doesn't believe all for sale signs can be banned. Commissioner Lindsey asked if it would be possible to have tract signs subject to design review. Mr. Swift indicated that this would be possible. Commissioner Lindsey asked why the City Attorney's office is concerned about the 1000'difference. Mr. swift explained that certain properties are within 1000' of the scenic route, i.e., Mozart and Vorelco. Commissioner Wellman asked if there could be a time limit imposed. Staff does not feel that a time limit would be appropriate. Commissioner Innes asked staff if they are proposing that all signs go through Design Review. Staff is recommending signs over 12 sq. ft. in size go before design review. Smaller signs would be allowed. Commissioner Innes asked how the request of Hacienda would be handled. Mr. Harris indicated that the ordinance could be expanded to indicate all temporary signs. Commissioner Innes would like to change the definition. Chairman Doherty asked if Commissioner Innes was recommending that "all temporary signs" be removed. Commissioner Innes indicated that this is his desire. Commissioner Wilson asked if it is being proposed to eliminate 'Scenic Highway' and would relate to freeways only. Mr. Harris stated that staff is recommending that 'scenic highways' be removed. Commissioner Lindsey felt that definite standards should be set. Commissioner Wilson asked if berms are part of a sign structure. Mr. Harris indicated he had not reviewed the definition of 'signs' for a long time. It was then decided that case RZ-84-10 would come back before the Commission on 9/12/84. The public hearing was then opened and continued to 9/12/84. -4- _, _. ,_
