Draft <br />2.0 Land Use Element <br />Program 18.3: Because the Urban Growth Boundary is considered to be <br />permanent, future adjustments to the boundary line location <br />are discouraged; provided, however, minor adjustments may <br />be granted that meet all of the following criteria: (1) are <br />otherwise consistent with the goals and policies of the General <br />Plan; (2) would not have a significant adverse impact on <br />agriculture, wildland areas, or scenic ridgeline views; (3) are <br />contiguous with existing urban development or with property <br />for which all discretionary approvals for urban development <br />have been granted; (4) would not induce further adjustments <br />to the boundary; and (5) demonstrate that the full range of <br />urban public facilities and services will be adequately provided <br />in an efficient and timely manner. <br />Program 18.4: Encourage lower intensity uses immediately inside the Urban <br />Growth Boundary, as necessary, to prevent potential land use <br />conflicts with outlying non-urban uses. <br />Program 18.5: The foregoing Policy 18 and Programs 18.1 through 18.4, this <br />Program 18.5, and the Urban Growth Boundary designated on <br />the City of Pleasanton General Plan Map adopted August 6, <br />1996, and as readopted by the Pleasanton Urban Growth <br />Boundary Initiative, shall be amended only by a vote of the <br />people. <br />Program 18.6: Reevaluate Urban Growth Boundary locations adjacent to <br />areas designated for Sand-and-Gravel Harvesting in East <br />Pleasanton at such time as comprehensive land-use designation <br />changes are considered for the reclaimed quarry lands. <br />Policy 19: Regulate the number of housing units approved each year to adequately plan <br />for infrastructure and assure City residents of a predictable growth rate. <br />Program 19.1: Review and modify the City's Growth Management Program <br />to ensure an orderly process for developing the remaining <br />residential units under the cap and to ensure that the City's <br />goals for affordable housing and energy sustainability are met. <br />Program 19.2: Prepare a "Growth Management" report as needed on which <br />the City Council can base its Growth Management allocations. <br />Policy 20: Maintain a maximum housing buildout of 29,000 housing units within the <br />Planning Area. <br />Program 20.1: Monitor and zone future residential developments so as not <br />to exceed the maximum housing buildout. <br />LU element 082107 clean 2-32 <br />
