Introduction <br />Pursuant to your request, we have completed our preliminary infrastructure due diligence. The purpose of this <br />review is to identify any unusual site-specific issues and special considerations that would add cost beyond the <br />“normal” development costs for a similar project on a different site. In accordance with our scope of work, we have <br />completed the following: <br /> <br />• Collected and reviewed record drawing documents <br />• Reviewed existing utilities adjacent to the site <br />• Reviewed various yield study scenarios provided by VMWP <br />• Plotted record boundary and easements <br /> <br />The approximately 15 acre site encompasses the parking lots at the Pleasanton BART Station. The site is bounded <br />by Interstate 580 and Hewlett Canal to the north, Owens Drive to the south, the BART station access road to the <br />east, and Chabot Canal to the west. <br /> <br />2. Existing Conditions <br />The approximately 15 acre site is paved with asphalt and contains trees and minor landscaping. A covered pedestrian <br />walkway runs along the north end of the site and provides cover for a bus and taxi pick up and drop off areas. The <br />Iron Horse Regional Trail runs northwest to southeast through the site. At the north end of the site, near where the <br />Iron Horse Trail meets the covered walkway, there are four retail kiosk buildings. There is an enclosure at the <br />northeast corner of the site. <br /> <br />Based on approximate elevation information shown on Google Earth, the site is relatively flat: elevations vary by <br />about 5 feet across the length of the site, resulting in average slopes of 2-3%. <br /> <br />3. Title Review <br />Copies of the Title Reports are provided for reference in Appendix G. The title reports are separated into West and <br />East parcels. <br /> <br />Based on our review of the Title Reports, the following easements should be noted. These easements are shown on <br />the record boundary exhibit in Appendix K and Parcel Map 3863 in Appendix L. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />DRA <br />F <br />T
