P24-0532, 5555 W. Las Positas Boulevard . Planning Commission 3 of 14 General Plan, Zoning, and PUD Development Plan The subject site is designated by the Land Use Element of the Pleasanton General Plan for “Other Public and Institutional.” The proposed project is located in the Stanford Health Care (SHC) Tri-Valley Hospital medical center, originally known as Valley Memorial Hospital. The site is zoned Planned Unit Development – Public & Institutional (PUD-P-I). It is subject to the conditions of approval of PUD-86-11 adopted by the City Council under Ordinance No. 1275 (adopted on October 28, 1986). Per Ordinance No. 1275, an overall Master Site Plan was approved for an approximately 488,000 square-foot medical center complex; the ordinance granted design approval for the Phase 1 building only, with four development phases anticipated. Although not necessarily precisely aligned to the phasing in the original approval, the site has seen progressive construction over time, including construction of the main hospital building totaling approximately 185,500 square feet, an emergency helipad, two medical office buildings totaling approximately 90,000 square feet, and an approximately 6,825 square-foot central utility plant. Table 1, below, provides a summary of the existing and proposed facilities and their conformance to the project’s allowable square-footage capacity. With the development of the proposed project (an additional approximately 66,000 square feet of net building area), another approximately 139,675 square feet of building expansion would remain available.

The Design Review application is now before the Planning Commission for consideration, which is the final body reviewing the proposed building expansion unless the approval is appealed. Staff notes that the regulatory environment for hospitals is different than most other types of development, with respect to issuance of building permits. Because the East Wing addition is part of a full-service hospital, the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) would review the building permit. OSHPD would also be the agency involved in inspecting the proposed construction as it proceeds. The Livermore-Pleasanton 1 MOB: Medical Office Building 2 ASSB: Ancillary Support Services Building
