City of Pleasanton—Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve <br />Project Description Draft EIR <br /> <br /> <br />2-34 FirstCarbon Solutions <br />https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480016/EIR/3 - Draft EIR/21480016 Sec02-00 Project Description.docx <br />currently exist along Dublin Canyon Road along the project frontage. Dublin Canyon Road is also a <br />part of the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) 2006 Countywide Bicycle <br />Network. <br />As discussed above, the proposed project would include the striping of 6-foot-wide bike lanes on <br />both sides of Dublin Canyon Road along the project frontage. <br />Pedestrian <br />The proposed project proposes the construction of sidewalks along Street A, Street B and Court C. <br />The proposed project also includes the construction of a 5-foot-wide sidewalk along the front of lot <br />30 along Dublin Canyon Road and a pedestrian crossing at Canyon Meadows that would facilitate <br />access to the proposed EBRPD trailhead. Crosswalks are also proposed to be constructed within the <br />development site. <br />2.3.4 - Design, Landscaping, and Lighting <br />Building Design and Height <br />Three different floor plans would range in size from 3,750 to 4,250 square feet, with four <br />architectural styles: Rustic Villa (Mediterranean), Spanish, Prairie, and Farmhouse. These plans <br />would all possess classic elements, details, color schemes, and stonework to fit in or be congruent <br />with the rolling landscape of the development site and open space. A selection of various exterior <br />color schemes (three per elevation style) would provide continuity with the design themes and <br />added variation within the new neighborhood. Exhibit 2-8a through Exhibit 2-8c illustrate <br />representative architectural styles. <br />Landscaping <br />Landscape elements would be native and native-type species that are drought-tolerant and wind <br />resistant to conserve water use. No artificial landscape plantings are proposed. High-efficiency drip <br />irrigation would also reduce outdoor water use. Exhibit 2-9a through Exhibit 2-9e illustrate the areas <br />of existing trees to remain as well as the conceptual landscape plan. <br />Lighting and Signage <br />The proposed project would include lighting elements for security and wayfinding, typical of a <br />residential subdivision. Lighting elements would include roadway lighting, accent lighting at the <br />entrance from Dublin Canyon Road to Street B, and accent lighting associated with landscaping and <br />single-family residences. A community identification plaque would be provided at the development <br />site’s entrance from Dublin Canyon Road to Street B (see Exhibits 2-7a and 2-7b).
