RZ-82-18, City of Pleasanton Application of the City Council to pre zone approximately 2.25 acres of land located south of the Arroyo Mocho immediately west of the extension of Pico Avenue in the Vintage Hills area. An application to annex this property to the City is now under consideration. The Planning Commission may recommend any zoning for the property in conformance with the General Plan. A negative declaration of environmental impacts will also be considered. This matter was continued to 12/8/82 and will be readvertised to change Arroyo Mocho which was incorrect in the legal advertisement. Tentative Map Tract 5112 Application of Breilh Homes, Inc. to subdivide approximately 2 acres of land to yield 32 townhouse units and common area at the southeast corner of Pico Avenue and Palomino Drive. Zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development)-High Density Residential District. Mr. Harris reviewed the staff report and stated that the subdivision is almost a technical requirement and that there is an approved Planned Unit Residential development for this site. He further stated the proposed subdivision conforms with this approval. The public hearing was opened. Ms. Pat Ullrey, 850 Concord, said she didn't want anymore townhouses in her neighborhood because of traffic, debris in the area. Commissioner Getty indicated that there had been two separate public hearings regarding this development in the past. Chairperson Lindsey explained that the project is approved and the tentative map is just a formal requirement of that development at this point. Frank Belecky, 892 Madeira Street, asked that the matter be removed from the Planning Commission calendar because of the serious controversy in the area regarding traffic. He said they have not had sufficient time to examine this particular project. He said they are protesting the Quail Creek development and the Harris-Vallarino project was denied. He said he would like time to poll the neighbors concerning this matter. He said he could have had many people here tonight speaking on the project if given sufficient time. He felt that EIRs should be prepared for the nine projects in the area to address the citizens concerns. Commissioner Getty said this project has gone through the entire public hearing process and the reason it wasn't started before was because of financing and that to reject this matter or put it off now would be tampering with property rights of the owner. She said Quail Creek is a different project especially in view of the fact that it will have a different traffic pattern than the Breihl development. She also pointed out there is approved development at the corner of Vineyard and Pico. Chairperson Lindsey said it would not be appropriate at this time to put this matter off or to deny it. Commissioner Doherty spoke to the process regarding the PUD on the property and the RAP approval which have gone through City Council. He said there was a negative declaration adopted for this project. -6-
