The major hill area developments remaining in the City that would be potentially <br />impacted by the Initiative are as follows: <br />Table 1 <br />Project Maximum Estimated Net Unit <br /> Development Development Transfer from <br /> Potential Under Initiative Hill Areas <br /> DU's ~ DU's s DU's <br />Lund II 86 5 (10 by default) <br />Lester 39 0 10 b default <br />Spotorno Upper 81 11 <br />Valley -Current <br />GP <br />Spotorno Flat - 79 63 <br />Proposed GP/SP <br />Amendment <br />Fole 18 1 10 b default <br />Oak Grove 51 0 (10 by default) <br /> <br />Total 275/222 51/103 119-224 <br />Transferring residential development from hillside properties to infill properties would <br />not impact the City's ability to meet its current regional housing needs since the self- <br />imposed limit to our Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) is 29,000 units -the <br />housing cap. However, to the extent that 119 to 224 hillside units are developed in infill <br />areas of the City rather than the hillsides, it is likely that such units would be higher <br />density, multiple family dwellings or smaller single family homes; some would likely be <br />able to qualify as very low, low, and/or moderate income units. This would help <br />Pleasanton in attaining our lower income share of the RHNA numbers. <br />Housing Unit Definition: <br />Regarding the portion of the Initiative that defines "housing unit", the question has been <br />raised as to whether assisted living units and second units must be included as "housing <br />units" and therefore counted towards the housing cap.13 (See also Section 5.20, below.) <br />' Number of potential dwelling units per General Plan Midpoint Density <br />a Number of units estimated under Initiative <br />v Initiative does not appear to affect Spotorno Flat; estimate based on developer's estimate of minimum <br />number of units needed to fund Bypass Road. Verification of developer assumptions have not been <br />confirmed by staff at this time. It is also questionable whether the Initiative precludes the Bypass Road <br />(see Section 5.7). <br />10 Assuming project overturned by referendum; Dwelling Units (DU) based on approved project <br />" Total with Spotorno Upper Valley and Oak Grove /Total with Spotorno Flat without Oak Grove <br />12 Total with Spotorno Upper Valley /Total with Spotorno Flat <br />13 The application of the Initiative's definition of "housing unit" would be prospective only for new <br />projects, as the Initiative did not include language specifically providing for retroactivity. <br />6 <br />
