6th Cycle Program 4.7: The City will analyze and test standards in the RM, MU-T, and C-C zones to determine standards (e.g., setbacks, parking, on-site open space requirements, etc.) that constrain developments and limit the ability to achieve maximum allowed density. Based on the analysis, the City will modify RM, MU-T, and C-C zones standards in the Zoning Ordinance to ensure maximum density can be achieved without exception (e.g., planned unit development, etc.). Ensure maximum density can be achieved in these zones without exception (e.g., planned unit development, etc.). Complete analysis (June 2024); amend Zoning Ordinance (December 2024) The City is undertaking the analysis with the a consulting firm providing technical assistance, with the goal of adopting modified standards as necessary by summer 2025. 6th Cycle Program 4.8: The City will establish a streamlined review process for development of housing sites. This review will serve strictly as a conformance analysis to evaluate projects proposed on housing sites against objective standards. This review will not require City Council approval, but Planning Commission approval may be required for larger projects (e.g., more than 50 units). For residential development proposals on properties where the General Plan Land Use Designation allows for such uses, residential density shall be permitted: (a) for mixed use, low and medium- density within the allowable density range set forth in Table 2- 3 of the Land Use Element; (b) for 5th cycle Housing Element residential sites the maximum densities set forth in Appendix B Housing Sites Inventory 2015-2023 Housing Element adopted by Resolution No. 15- 727; (c) for 6th cycle Housing Element residential sites the maximum densities as set forth in the Sites Inventory and Methodology Table B-13 (Rezone Sites – Minimum and Maximum Densities); with Land Use Element Policy 11’s requirement for public amenity when exceeding average density suspended; and maximum density allowed as necessary to comply with applicable State law. Streamline development review for properties where residential development is allowed and for the 5th and 6th Cycle Housing element sites. Develop and implement streamlined process (March 2023); suspension of Land Use Element Policy 11 for allowed residential development proposals effective upon Housing Element adoption The Housing Site Compliance Review process was implemented May 2023 (https://www.cityofpleasantonca.gov/assets/our-government/community- development/permits-forms-fees/housing-site-compliance-review.pdf) 6th Cycle Program 5.1: Support implementation of applicable recommendations of the 2021 Alameda County “Home Together 2026 Implementation Plan” and pursue development and adoption of a local or subregional (Tri- Valley) homeless strategic framework to complement the Countywide effort, that would incorporate strategies and programs tailored towards the specific needs of Pleasanton’s unhoused residents. To initiate this effort, convene one or more stakeholder meetings to evaluate trends, needs, resources and strategies that could be included in a future framework document. Reduce unhoused persons as counted in the bi-annual Point-inTime (PIT) count for the 2026 and subsequent PIT counts during the planning period (2028 and 2030) Convene stakeholder meeting by September 2024; adopt local or Tri- Valley Framework or equivalent strategic plan by December 2025 Year 3 of the Alameda County 5-year strategic initiative Home Together 2026 Community Plan has been completed. Stakeholder meeting to be convened in 2025. Framework/strategic plan work to follow.
