City of Pleasanton June 17, 1986 HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL Pleasanton, California Minor Modification to PUD-79-4r Oak Park Members .of the Council: Background Oak Park Homeowners' Association wishes to amend the approved planned unit development for the 40 unit townhouse development Oak Park (PUD-79-4). Please refer to the attached location map and site plan. Specifically, the association wishes to dedicate the privately owned streets to the City (Lone Oak Drive, Lone Oak Court and Tomas Way). The reason for the change in ownership from private to public is that the association no longer wants to assume responsibility and maintenance of the streets because of insurance and upkeep costs. It also believes that the City can better maintain the streets. The streets were essentially constructed to City standards 32 ft. curb to curb with standard curb and gutter. A 4 ft. wide sidewalk is, however, substandard by i ft. At the time Oak Park was completed, the Director of Public Works did approve the streets for dedication to the City. However, due to Proposition 13, and the subsequent funding cutbacks, the streets remained private. Staff believes that the modification is appropriate for several reasons. First, in similar residential projects such as Shadow Cliff Village and Pleasanton Village the streets have been dedicated to the City. Recently Valley Business Park has also had their private streets dedicated. Second, the streets (Lone Oak Drive, Lone Oak Court, and Tomas Way) generally conform to City standards. Finally, costs for maintenance of a relatively new street should be minimal. Zonin~ Administrator Action The above case was treated as a minor modification by the Zoning Administrator on June 11, 1986, since the changes are not substantial in nature to effect the overall design of the building and the streets essentially conform to City standards.
