PUD development plan, which is necessary to establish development standards and uses for development of the lot, and which requires review and recommendation by the Planning Commission. A Minor Subdivision application is reviewed and approved at staff -level, but in this instance is being processed concurrently with the PUD application. As proposed and conditioned, staff finds the proposal to be consistent with the objectives of the General Plan and zoning district. The Planning Commission may recommend approval, approval with conditions, or denial of the applications to the City Council. BACKGROUND The subject lot is located near the east end of Trenery Drive and is part of the Mohr -Martin area, generally defined by Martin Avenue, Mohr Avenue, the former Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way, and Stoneridge Drive. The Mohr -Martin area comprises predominantly of residential uses of varying densities and home designs. Many of the properties within the area were originally located in unincorporated Alameda County, but were progressively annexed into the City of Pleasanton during the 1990's. Thus, many of these properties were subdivided and developed in conformance to planning, zoning, and construction standards of Alameda County. On April 1, 1997, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1709 for RZ-97-2, which prezoned the subject property to the PUD-LDR District as part of a larger 34.5 -acre area, for a maximum density "approaching" 2.0 dwelling units per acre'. The property was formally annexed into the City of Pleasanton in 1998. City Council approved PUD -97 (2201 Martin Avenue) in 2003, and more recently, PUD -140 (2207 Martin Avenue) and PUD -141 (2215 Martin Avenue) in October 2021. All three properties are north of the subject site and included similar proposals to subdivide an existing parcel into two parcels, establish development standards and uses, and retain and construct homes and related site improvements. SITE AND AREA DESCRIPTION The subject property is a flat, 1.3 -acre "L" shaped vacant site, addressed as 3707 Trenery Drive but with frontage on both Trenery Drive and Martin Avenue (see Figure 1). There is a cluster of small trees in the southwest corner of the lot, with mature trees along the property lines of the adjacent lots to the south and west (Figures 2 — 4). A vacant lot and single-family homes are located north, across Trenery Drive, a single-family home and Alameda Flood Control property (across Martin Avenue) are located east, and single-family homes are located immediately south and west of the subject site. Existing houses in the area are one- and two -stories and sited appropriately with their respective lot size. 1 The Agenda Report for this item clarifies the allowable density as "maximum density approaching 2 du/ac (i.e. 1.999... du/ac).
