As a result, the approval would not require re - zoning of additional sites to meet the moderate income RHNA. Table 2: No Net Loss Calculation (Including Project) ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Public Resource Code Section 21080.66, Statutory Infill Exemption Eligibility Based on the documentation provided (Exhibit D) and the criteria outlined in Public Resources Code Section 21080.66, the City finds that the project qualifies for a statutory exemption from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and does not fall under any of the exclusion criteria. The project is located on less than 20 acres within an incorporated city, is consistent with both the City of Pleasanton’s General Plan and zoning standards, meets the required density thresholds, and does not involve any disqualifying environmental conditions or involve the demolition of any listed historic resources. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment has been completed, and Tribal consultation has been conducted in accordance with statutory requirements. As such, the project qualifies for the CEQA e xemption established by AB 130, codified in Section 21080.66 of the Public Resources Code, and does not require further environmental review under CEQA PUBLIC NOTICE / PUBLIC COMMENT Notice of the application was sent to the surrounding property owners and tenants within a 1,000-foot radius of the project site (Exhibit H). The applicant also posted an on-site project notification sign pursuant to the on-site project notification policy. At the time this report was published, staff has received one public comment. The public comment expressed concern relating to traffic impacts from the project. Please see Exhibit G for full public comment details. Any additional public comments received after publication of this report will be forwarded to the Planning Commission. CONCLUSION The project is consistent with the density and land uses allowed for and zoned at this project site, and with the exception of 27 waivers that have been requested pursuant to SDBL, would be consistent with all prescribed objective site development standards of the P District and other applicable City standards. The project provides 59 housing units, including nine affordable housing units, which assist the City in meeting its housing goals. Although not a basis for approval or denial of the project, staff finds the building design and overall landscaping, open space to be attractive, and the architectural style, finish colors, and materials will complement the surrounding development.
