The units are arranged in clusters with parking at the perimeters of each cluster. Materials used in the buildings are stucco and vertically grooved plywood walls, cement tile roofs, wood balcony and stair railings, wooden patio fences and generous use of wood trim. The two bedroom two -bath units have fireplaces, so chimneys are shown scattered throughout the building clusters. The complex includes a fairly large recreation area which would have a swimming pool, recreation building, tennis court, sport court and large grassed play area. The recreation building would have a cement tile roof and vertically grooved plywood exterior walls and thereby match the apartment buildings architecturally. Five hundred and ninety -five (595) parking spaces are shown on the plan. This is a ratio of 2.26 parking spaces per unit and should be more than sufficient for the size and types of units shown on the plan. Five hundred and five (505) of these parking spaces would be standard size, 84 would be compact and 6 would be handicap. Carports would be provided for 262 units. The 84 foot wide north /south trending street shown to the west of the property is approximately three quarters on property owned by San Francisco Water Department. In conjunction with EVH's original residential proposal for the subject property discussions were held between the City, Catholic Church, San Francisco Water Department and EVH in which the latter agreed to pay for the full construction of the 84 foot wide street plus dedicate approximately one quarter of that street in return for the City's 40 foot wide access strip and the 0.44 acre San Francisco Water Department property. As a result EVH would pick up slightly over one acre of additional developable land (bringing the total project size to 13.15 acres) and the City of Pleasanton and the San Francisco Water Department would get a fully constructed 84 foot wide street which would provide access to the approximately 120 acres of undeveloped property which are owned by those two entities in the area between the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific Railroad tracks. The Catholic Church would benefit from this arrangement since even if EVH fails to develop the property, the church would gain over an acre of land in return for constructing the north /south street. Staff is now of the opinion that EVH should pay for the east side of the 84 foot wide street, whoever develops on the west side of the street should pay for the western half and EVH should acquire the 0.44 acre site either through direct purchase from San Francisco or through the City of Pleasanton's condemnation process. Only the northern approximately 8 acres of the subject site is currently within the city limits of the City of Pleasanton. The remaining approximately 5 acres is in the process of being annexed and that annexation should be complete within the next two months. The northern portion of the site is zoned PUD -High Density Residential while the southern section, which is 2
