1 <br />From:Frank Lynn <> <br />Sent:Tuesday, February 20, 2024 11:31 AM <br />To:bmyers@catdevpartners.com; dmora@cityofpleasantonca.gov; kbrown@cityofpleasantonca.gov; <br />varkin@cityofpleasantonca.gov; jbalch@cityofpleasantonca.gov; jnibert@cityofpleasantonca.gov; <br />jtesta@cityofpleasantonca.gov <br />Cc:Connie <br />Subject:Objection to planned development on 3200 Hopyard <br />Follow Up Flag:Flag for follow up <br />Flag Status:Flagged <br /> *** [EXTERNAL] This message comes from an external organizaƟon. Exercise cauƟon when opening aƩachments or <br />clicking links, especially from unknown senders. *** <br /> <br />I object to the planned high‐density development being planned for 3200 Hopyard. <br /> <br />Being there is one single arterial road (the horseshoe of North Valley Trails to South Valley Trails), a development of this <br />magnitude as planned at this locaƟon will be detrimental to traffic as well as public safety. Many children walk or ride <br />bicycles to Ken Mercer sports part across the street to parƟcipate in youth soccer and baseball acƟviƟes. Puƫng that <br />many vehicles against pedestrians will likely result in accidents and fataliƟes involving children. Many people already <br />drive dangerously in this area and increased police presence (for which Pleasanton doesn’t seem to currently have <br />budget) has oŌen been requested in previous years. AddiƟonally, the expected traffic snarls at school and work commute <br />Ɵmes could hinder the state‐mandated Ɵmely contractual arrival of emergency services to the north side of the Valley <br />Trails housing development. <br /> <br />AddiƟonally, a development of this magnitude will have a further negaƟve impact on Donlon elementary school which is <br />already the most impacted (e.g., overcrowded) in Pleasanton. The sheer number of these units will mean that Donlon <br />will have to conƟnue to add portables and serve way more students than it was originally intended. And/or school <br />boundaries will have to be re‐done causing hardship for parents as it will means students will have to travel to school <br />sites further away than the ones closest to their homes and will negaƟvely impact families with children who are <br />potenƟally split between districts. <br /> <br />This planned development is a bad idea ‐ the land would be beƩer developed for single‐family homes ‐ which would fit <br />beƩer with the character of the neighborhood and not have as many detrimental impacts to the current community. . <br /> <br />Best, <br />Frank Lynn <br />Valley Trails Resident
