WHEREAS, WHEREAS , residential growth management ordinance that set the procedure for the implementation of the goal of two percent per year residential growth; and the Residential Allocation Program says in part, "[t]his ordinance does not apply to commercial/industrial developments. The growth which has occurred in the City in the past has been heavily in favor of residential development. In order to encourage connnercial/industrial uses which will assist in employing residents of Pleasanton and help decrease dependency upon commuting to the Hayward-Oakland area for employment, the City Council does not wish to limit the number of commercial/industrial connections which will be available annually."; and Pleasanton's General Plan and zoning history with respect to the Hacienda site is as follows: the Hacienda Business Park site has been zoned for industrial development since 1964; Pleasanton adopted a new general plan in 1965; in 1972 and 1973, the citizens of Pleasanton undertook an extensive review of the General Plan; on December 17, 1973, the Council approved a resolution entitled "A Resolution Tentatively Adopting a Revised General Plan for the City of Pleasanton;" the final adoption of the Revised General Plan was delayed pending the determination of the amount of sewage treatment and disposal capacity which would be available to accommodate Pleasanton's growth; in 1976, the Council adopted the Supplement to the General Plan which was generated in part as a means of assuring the implementation of mitigation measures required by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as conditions to the funding of sewage treatment facilities that were necessary in order to allow for Pleasanton's continued growth; the 1976 Supplement to the General Plan added certain goals for residential growth management and for increased economic development; -3-
