Klein 415.262.5130 lklein@coxcastle.com File No. 102657 August 29, 2023 VIA E-MAIL Ms. Melinda Denis Planning and Permit Center Manager City of Pleasanton 200 Old Bernal Avenue Pleasanton, CA 94566 Re: Supplemental Density Bonus Law Request for the 3200 Hopyard Road Project Dear Ms. Denis: On behalf of our client, Catalyst Development Partners (“CDP”), we are submitting this supplemental State Density Bonus Law (“SDBL”) request that makes minor modifications to the SDBL request dated May 9, 2023, for CDP’s proposed housing development project consisting of 57 residential units (48 condo units and 9 rental units) (the “Project”) at 3200 Hopyard Road (the “Property”) in the City of Pleasanton (the “City”). This letter clarifies and supplements the specific waiver and concession requests made for the Project, as well as reduced vehicular parking ratios for the Project. 1. Incentives and Concessions The Project requests one incentive, which is a decrease in the allowable lot size. The Project would subdivide the Property so that each townhome building (not each unit within the townhome building) sits on its own parcel.1 The subdivided parcels would not meet the minimum lot size, as the lots would be as small as 7,235 square feet. Subdividing the Property results in cost savings to provide for affordable housing. Subdividing the Property allows for phased filings with the California Department of Real Estate (“DRE”), which reduces the time homeowner dues must be paid on unsold units. In addition, subdividing the Property allows phased construction of the common area parcels, which reduces the interest paid on bonds and maintenance carrying costs. 1 The townhome units within a townhome building would be condominiums.
