Condition 5a is a condition that staff had <br /> been including with all PUDs for 3 to 4 years. To modify this <br /> condition would be a change from what had been required in the past <br /> but it was not a c~de requirement. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver felt that this was a situation where this was an <br /> election year fire sale and that Council was changing the rules at <br /> the eleventh hour to give an applicant project approval with <br /> guarantees for future years.

She reiterated the <br /> staff report and believed that they were providing a need that is <br /> evident in Pleasanton for country western dancing. She described <br /> the facility as a dance studio, with lessons being held five nights <br /> a week and some dancing on the weekends. The type of dancing that <br /> will be taught would be mostly line dancing. Line dancing is a <br /> skill and must be practiced. The dancing does require a large <br /> dance floor as well as someone to select the music that is <br /> appropriate to the dance. <br /> <br /> Ms. Clark stated that she was willing to meet the conditions <br /> that were listed by the Planning Commission. She reiterated that <br /> staff found the noise level is within an acceptable level according <br /> to City code.
