ITEM 23 ATTACHMENT 1 - CEQA Checklist

City of Pleasanton—Merritt Property Project 15183 Consistency Checklist Consistency Checklist 169 library facility to be developed as part of the Civic Center Master. However, as stated above, no plans have been approved at this time. As described above, the project-specific environmental impacts of constructing new or expanded library facilities to support the growth associated with the Housing Element Update cannot be determined at the time of certification of the Housing Element Update FEIR because the site- specific locations and designs of future new or expanded facilities are not known. As the City proceeds with the construction of new or expanded library facilities, those projects would be reviewed by the City for compliance with the policies and programs of the General Plan and Municipal Code. Furthermore, as the City receives development applications for development consistent with the Housing Element Update, those applications would be reviewed by the City for compliance with the policies and programs of the General Plan to ensure that library facilities keep pace with new development. In addition, development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to pay capital facility fees in accordance with Chapter 3.22. Therefore, future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would not result in significant adverse effects related to library facilities and impacts would be less than significant. Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion The proposed project would develop 110 new dwelling units, a recreation center, and a mini park. The proposed project would also retain one existing single-family residence and would result in the development of a trail connection to the Marilyn Murphy Kane Trail. As a conservative assumption, FCS assumes that all project residents would relocate from outside of the City, and the proposed project would result in a population increase of approximately 220 persons, based on the City Housing Manager’s estimate for two persons per household in this senior age-restricted proposed project. This increase in population can reasonably be expected to produce an increase in demand for library services. Although the proposed project would include more units for the project site than analyzed and predicted within the Housing Element Update FEIR, the smaller household size for the senior age-restricted project results in an increase in the population growth that had been planned for by the City as forecasted in the City’s Housing Element Update.
