Uses that are permitted within the C-R (p) zone include retail and office <br />uses.80 The project site would be rezoned to PUD-C-O to allow R&D and light laboratory <br />manufacturing uses. <br />The project site is bound on the north by parking lots, office buildings, and the Stoneridge Shopping <br />Center. Beyond the Stoneridge Shopping Center to the north is the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART <br />station. To the south, the project site is bound by Stoneridge Drive and multi-family residential <br />communities. To the east, the project site is bound by Stoneridge Mall Road, LPFD Fire Station No. 2, <br />multi-family residential housing, the Pleasanton Commons Business Center, and beyond this area to <br />the east is I-680. To the west, the project site is bound by Springdale Avenue, parking lots, and a <br />Kaiser Permanente Medical Center. The project site is located in an urbanized and developed area. <br />Would the project: <br />a) Physically divide an established community? <br />No impact. A significant impact could occur if the proposed project would result in the physical <br />division of an established community through construction of a linear feature, such as an interstate <br />highway or railroad tracks, or removal of a means of access that would impact mobility within an <br />existing community. The project site does not contain residential units; however, there are some <br />multi-family residential communities to the south and east of the project site. The proposed project <br />would not create any barriers to the residential communities in the area and would not impact <br /> <br />79 City of Pleasanton. 2005.
