City of Pleasanton–Spotorno Ranch Reduced Development Project Initial Study/Consistency Checklist Environmental Checklist FirstCarbon Solutions 141 https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480021/Consistency Checklist/21480021 Spotorno Ranch Consistency Checklist ScreenCheck.docx Additionally, the 1998 HVSP FEIR determined that a cumulative impact related to fire protection may occur. In combination with other planned, proposed, and approved development, including buildout of development anticipated by the Pleasanton General Plan, development according to the HVSP would contribute to demands for fire protection that would eventually expose additional portions of the fire service area to risk in the form of response times exceeding 5 minutes. The approximately 112-acre subject property is located within the Greater Happy Valley Subarea and the Agriculture/Open Space Subarea, which the 1998 HVSP FEIR determined is near an area of high wildfire risk. The Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department provides fire protection and emergency medical services to the project site. The Fire Department is headquartered at Station No. 1, located at 3560 Nevada Street in Pleasanton. Three of five fire stations within the City of Pleasanton are located within a 5- mile radius of the project site: Station No. 1 at 3560 Nevada Street (1.88 miles north of the project site), Station No. 4 at 1600 Oak Vista Parkway (1.89 miles northwest of the project site), and Station No.5 at 1200 Machado Place (2.65 miles northeast of the project site). General Plan Program 10.1 states, “proposed developments not within a 5-minute travel time of a fire station,” should be denied, “unless acceptable mitigations are provided.” Program 10.2 requires that a system of fire hazard mitigations be developed based on the probability of occurrence and the number of people at risk. The project site is not within a 5-minute travel time of a fire station. Therefore, consistent with the 1998 HVSP FEIR MM O1 and MM O2, the proposed project would install automatic fire sprinklers and Class A fire-retardant roofing to ensure that impacts remain less than significant and would not use wood shakes and shingles. Pursuant to the HVSP and 1998 HVSP FEIR, the proposed project would comply with the requirements for the developer to prepare, and the City to approve, a Wildland/Urban Interface Management Plan prior to any development in these areas. The Fire Department would review the proposed project to ensure that all new improvements meet state and local Building and Fire Code requirements. During this review, additional design measures potentially needed to compensate for travel time beyond 5 minutes would be required of the proposed project in accordance with General Plan Policy 10, Program 10.1 and 10.2. Further, once operational, projects would be subject to the Fire Department’s inspection program, which would ensure compliance with applicable State and local standards, including requirements for emergency access. Additionally, the proposed project would comply with the standards contained in the current California Fire and Building Codes requiring modern construction methods and flame-retardant building materials. The proposed project would not result in the need for new or expanded fire protection facilities to serve the project site. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in any peculiar effects and would not result in new or more severe impacts related to Fire Department facilities beyond what was previously analyzed in the 1998 HVSP FEIR.
