5. Whether grading in conjunction with the proposed development plan takes into account environmental characteristics and is designed in keeping with the best engineering practices to avoid erosion, slides, or flooding, and to have as minimal an effect upon the environment as possible. Requirements of the Uniform Building Code -implemented by the City at the Building Permit review -would ensure that building foundations and parking/driveway areas are constructed on satisfactorily compacted fill. Erosion control and dust suppression measures will be documented in the final subdivision map and will be administered by the City's Building and Public Works Departments. All construction activities are limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. All construction equipment must meet Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) noise standards and shall be equipped with mufFling devices. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 6. Whether adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the proposed development plan: The proposed building is required to be designed and constructed to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code, other applicable City codes, and State of California mandated noise, energy, and accessibility requirements. All streets meet City standards and are adequate to handle anticipated traffic volumes. Adequate access is provided to all structures for police, fire, and other emergency vehicles. Through the design of the proposed development in conjunction with the recommended conditions of approval, staff believes that all public safety measures will be addressed. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 7. Whether the proposed development plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD District: The proposed modification to the original Ruby Hill development plan approval sets forth the parameters for the design and operation of the event center and winery in a manner consistent with the Pleasanton General Plan and with the surrounding area. The proposed development plan modification implements the purposes of the City's PUD Ordinance by providing uses consistent and supportive of the operations of the wine county. Through the proposed design augmented by the recommended conditions of approval, the project will substantially conform to the requirements for development specified in the Pleasanton General Plan. 3
