Roll Call Vote Resolution: Shepherd Seconded: Jamieson Ayes: Jamieson, Shepherd, Butler Noes: None Absent: Doherty Abstain: None PUD-78-2, Falendar Homes - Review of environmental impact report for a medium density residential development located between Alder Court and Lemonwood Way along the extension of Muirwood Drive. Application for a planned unit development for a medium density residential development comprising 51 single family, zero~lot line homes similar to the existing Oak Hill development on a 12-acre site, located as described in the environmental review above. The staff report was described by Secretary Harris. There is no sewer capacity at this time. When it becomes available, it will be sewered through DSRSD. A portion of this development is near the top of the list in the 1972 settlement agreement and after the PUD approval is received, this PUD will be eligible under the newly adopted Residential Allocation Program. The EIR prepared for Tentative Tract #3102 is still valid for this develop- ment. Following review under the residential allocation program require- ments, the development would need to go through the subdivision map stages. Considerable discussion took place regarding noise attenuation measures which will need to be taken for this development. Commissioner Jamieson expressed concerns for those people who live in close proximity to the freeway. Secretary Harris advised the Commissioners that when the Kolb property (that land immediately adjacent to the freeway), is developed more stringent noise attenuation requirements would probably be required. Unit #3, now under consideration, is borderline as far as noise is concerned. The Public Hearing was opened. Mr. Fred Falender, developer of the property was present. His offices are located at 1660 Olympic Boulevard, Walnut Creek. With him was his engineer, Rod Andrade of MacKay & Somps. Mr. Falender indicated general agreement with the staff recommendations. In checking with P.G.&E., he discovered that they qualify for 60 points to have an energy conservation home. He asked for some compromise position on this point. He stated that P.G.&E. is currently studying their energy conservation requirements. His next concern was a requirement noted under Condition a temporary asphalt berm along the east side of Muirwood wood to the northern tract boundary.
