The Pleasanton Municipal Code (Section 18.88.030A.3.) defines the minimum parking
<br />requirements for multi family developments. Table 1, on the following page, compares
<br />the existing and proposed parking for the Civic Square Apartments, and shows that the
<br />proposed parking will exceed the minimum parking required by the Pleasanton
<br />Municipal Code for multi family developments. During the course of its review, staff
<br />conducted random site visits of the Civic Square Apartments, mornings and evenings,
<br />weekdays and weekends and observed an adequate parking supply.
<br />Table 1: Existing and Proposed Parking for the Civic Square Apartments
<br />For one /two- bedroom units, Section 1.88.030.A.3. of the Pleasanton Municipal Code requires 2.0
<br />parking space per dwelling unit for the first four units and 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit for
<br />each additional unit over four units.
<br />2 For visitor parking, Section 1.88.030.A.3. of the Pleasanton Municipal Code requires 1.0 parking
<br />spaces per 7.0 dwelling units.
<br />In conformance with Section 18.88.020 A.4., Braddock and Logan allocates one carport
<br />parking space to each one- and two bedroom unit. The remaining open parking will be
<br />available to visitors and /or residents.
<br />Building and Site Design
<br />The proposed project breaks down to a coverage (footprint) of 6,045 square feet for the
<br />three, four -unit apartment buildings, 181 square feet for the fitness center expansion,
<br />and 749 square feet for the new administration building equaling, overall, 6,975 square
<br />feet. The total construction area including buildings, new carports, sidewalks, etc., is
<br />24,016 square feet or 0.55 acres. The 12 proposed units equal an overall floor area of
<br />12,090 square feet.
<br />The proposed buildings will be separated from the development's existing buildings,
<br />parking and driveway areas, and from Bernal Avenue by distances comparable to the
<br />existing development. New covered parking spaces will be located in close proximity to
<br />the new units commensurate with the walking distance between the existing carports
