number of bedrooms that would be provided as part of that previous project, compared <br />to the current project, is diminishing from 235 to 217, and associated impacts, including <br />water use, traffic, and so forth would also be expected to diminish. He added that the <br />data will be incorporated into the City Council agenda report once they are refined and <br />triple- checked. <br />Chair Allen thanked staff and clarified that her reason for bringing this up was not so <br />much a big concern of this project because it did not appear to be significant, but <br />because there could be other projects for which the Commission would need to know <br />the answer. <br />Commissioner Ritter expressed concern about the affordable housing numbers and <br />wanted to make sure that the City is still meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation <br />(RHNA) requirements even with the reduction in the number of units. <br />Mr. Weinstein replied that there is an Affordable Housing Agreement that would still <br />apply to this current project, and the reduction in the number of units would not affect <br />that. He explained that the RHNA requirements are really just the capacity of the City's <br />residentially zoned lands to accommodate housing; it does not necessarily require the <br />actual construction of the housing units. He reiterated that a change in the number of <br />units in this respect should not affect the City's affordable housing obligations. <br />Commissioner O'Connor moved to: (1) find that the previously prepared <br />Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Supplemental EIR, including the adopted <br />California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Findings and Statement of <br />Overriding Considerations, are adequate to serve as the environmental <br />documentation for this project and satisfy all the requirements of CEQA; (2) find <br />that the proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) Development Plan is <br />consistent with the Pleasanton General Plan and Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan <br />Amendment/Staples Ranch; (3) make the PUD findings for the proposed <br />Development Plan, as listed in the staff report; and (4) recommend approval of <br />Case PUD- 68 -06M, subject to the Conditions of Approval listed in Exhibit A of the <br />staff report. <br />Commissioner Ritter seconded the motion. <br />ROLL CALL VOTE: <br />AYES: Commissioners Allen, O'Connor, Nagler, Piper, and Ritter <br />NOES: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br />RECUSED: None <br />ABSENT: Commissioner Balch <br />Resolution No. PC- 2015 -20 recommending approval of Case PUD- 68 -06M was entered <br />and adopted as motioned. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 8, 2015 Page 5 of 10 <br />
