EXHIBIT "B" <br /> <br />Wording to be incorporated in the Growtb Management Element <br />immediately before Policy 6 which appears on Page 6 <br /> <br />"The following principles shall guide the interpretation <br />of Goal 1 of the Growth Management Element: <br /> <br />Additional commercial, office and indu trial development <br /> <br /> p p r r <br />The City of Pleasanton shall endeavor to provide employment <br />opportunities within the City for present and future <br />residents. From time to time, bousing supply may exceed <br />jobs, or jobs may exceed housing supply. To that extent, <br />the City could be, at various points in time, a net = <br />labor importing community, requiring some amount of <br />incommuting. <br /> <br />It is recognized that approval of well-planned, long-range <br />commercial, office and industrial projects provides <br />the necessary infrastructure for creation of desired <br />future employment opportunities. To the extent that <br />the GME requires consideration of the relationship between <br />projected employment from such projects and projected <br />housing supply, tbe relationship is hereby clarified <br />to permit the additional employment opportunities projected <br />within Pleasanton as a result of tbe commercial, office <br />and industrial projects approved as of May of 1983, <br />together with the project shown in the proposed PUD-81-30 <br />(Hacienda Business Park). <br /> <br />The commercial, office and industrial development described <br />above is a necessary and positive step toward acbieving <br />a balance among land uses as called for by Goal 1 of <br />the Growth Management Element and would be compatible <br />with the present and future workforce of Pleasanton <br />because of the following factors: <br /> <br />a <br /> <br />The need for progress toward correcting the current <br />severe imbalance in favor of housing; <br /> <br />b <br /> <br />]'he uncertainty as to whether economic trends <br />and competitive factors will allow buildout of <br />the subject projects at the projected rate; <br /> <br />C <br /> <br />The compatibility of the subject projects with <br />job skills of the present and future workforce <br />of Pleasanton; <br /> <br />d <br /> <br />Established regional economic and commuting patterns <br />and the loc~tion of the described projects in <br />close proximity to major regional transportation <br />corridors, which will result in a significant <br />number of workers who prefer to work in the City <br />and to l~ve elsewhere and in a dispersion of <br />employment effects of the described projccts <br /> <br /> <br />
