City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project 15183 Consistency Checklist Consistency Checklist 159 FEIR, Site 21(Kiewit) is located within the Alameda County ALUPP AIA, which is coterminous with the Alameda County Airport Land Use Commission Hazard Prevention Zone. None of the rezoned housing sites are within an Airport Protection Area. Developments within the ALUPP’s AIA would be required to undergo federal, State, and local regulatory review processes specific to airport noise, airspace safety, and other land use compatibility standards, including 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 77 regulations for the safety, efficient use, and preservation of navigable airspaces. In reviewing individual applications, the City would determine which policies and actions apply and whether project modifications would be required to ensure compatibility with the ALUCP. Buildings within the ALUCP AIA would be required to comply with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations for height. Therefore, development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be consistent with the Alameda County ALUCP, and impacts would be less than significant. Proposed Project Analysis and Conclusion The types of barriers or physical features that can divide a community include roads, freeways, railroads, transit lines, and open space that is not developed for recreational use. The project site is bordered by urban built-up land, consisting of various industrial and residential uses. Additionally, the Montessori School is located across Busch Road north of the project site (Exhibits 2 and 2a). The proposed project will consist of residential units and, therefore, would not physically divide an established community. Additionally, the proposed project has a General Plan designation of Housing Element Overlay and was anticipated to be developed with 8 to 13 du/acre on the medium density portion of the site and 30 du/acre on high density portion of the site in the Housing Element Update. The proposed project consists of 412 dwelling units with a density of 8 du/acre on the medium density portion of the project site and 36 du/acre on the high density portion of the project site (with density bonus) and 57 JADUs. Thus, the proposed project would be consistent with the development assumed in the Housing Element Update FEIR for this site. Noise Land Use Compatibility Analysis In order to evaluate the existing ambient noise environment for compatibility of the proposed development with the City’s noise land use compatibility criteria, an ambient noise monitoring effort was conducted on the project
