Hana Japan Restaurant Project <br />Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />68 <br />May 2025 <br />School services in the City are provided by the Pleasanton Unified School District (PUSD), <br />which operates nine public elementary schools, three public middle schools, and four high <br />schools.39 Because the project would include commercial uses, the proposed project is <br />not anticipated to generate new residents in the City. In addition, the project would be <br />subject to payment of development mitigation fees to fund local school services. <br />Specifically, PUSD requires commercial development to pay $0.84 per sf.40 Proposition <br />1A/SB 50 prohibits local agencies from using the inadequacy of school facilities as a basis <br />for denying or conditioning approvals of any “[…] legislative or adjudicative act…involving <br />…the planning, use, or development of real property” (Government Code 65996(b)). <br />Satisfaction of the Proposition 1A/SB 50 statutory requirements by a developer is deemed <br />to be “full and complete mitigation.” Overall, development of the proposed project would <br />not result in a significant increase in demand for schools. <br /> <br />With respect to parks and other public facilities, such as libraries, the proposed project <br />includes commercial uses and would not directly generate new residents in the City. <br />Therefore, the proposed project would not be anticipated to result in a permanent <br />substantial increase in population or the associated demand for such services, such that <br />expanded facilities would be required. <br /> <br />Based on the above, the proposed project would have a less-than-significant impact <br />related to the need for new or physically altered fire protection, police protection, schools, <br />parks, or other public facilities, the construction of which could cause significant <br />environmental impacts. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />39 City of Pleasanton.
