City of Pleasanton—Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve Project CEQA Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations 4 FirstCarbon Solutions Https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480016/FOF/21480016 Pleasanton Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve Project FOF.docx on the northern frontage of Lot 30 facing Dublin Canyon Road to facilitate access to a proposed EBRPD trailhead. Landscape elements would be native and native-type species that are drought-tolerant and wind resistant to conserve water use. No artificial landscape plantings are proposed. High-efficiency drip irrigation would also reduce outdoor water use. A proposed 30-foot minimum firebreak planting area would be installed behind proposed residences behind Lots 1 and 2 near the intersection of Dublin Canyon Road and Street B, and behind Lots 13 and 14 on the northern end of Court C. The proposed project would include lighting elements for security and wayfinding typical of a residential subdivision. Lighting elements would include roadway lighting, accent lighting at the entrance from Dublin Canyon Road to Street B, and accent lighting associated with landscaping and single-family residences. A community identification plaque would be provided at the development site’s entrance at the intersection of Dublin Canyon Road to Street B. The proposed project would include bioretention areas and vaults for on-site stormwater management near the proposed main entrance at the intersection of Dublin Canyon Road and Street B and along Street A. Proposed 12-inch storm drains throughout the development site would be provided connections to bioretention areas for pre-treatment before draining into a 12-inch storm drain located in Dublin Canyon Road. The proposed storm drains would connect to a new 24-inch storm drain located in Dublin Canyon Road by extension of an 18-inch storm drain located at the intersection of Street A and Street B and within Street A. Additionally, 12- and 8-inch storm drains are also proposed within Court C. A 12-inch storm drain is proposed along private and public roads surrounding Lots 29 and 30, which would connect to existing facilities adjacent to Dublin Canyon Road to the north.

Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) would provide gas and electric service. Pacific Bell Telephone Company (Pac Bell), Xfinity, and AT&T would provide telecommunications services. Both the 28 detached single-family residential units and the two existing single-family residential units proposed for development are located within the City’s UGB and would be annexed into the City as part of the proposed project. Open Space The proposed project would preserve approximately 117.1 acres of designated open space on four parcels: Parcel A, which would contain 39.9 acres to be owned and managed by the Homeowner’s Association (HOA); Parcel B, which would contain 69.3 acres to be dedicated to the EBRPD; Parcel C, which would add another 7.6 acres of open space to be retained by the Lester Family for future dedication to EBRPD; and Parcel D would contain 0.30 acre to be owned and managed by the HOA. Throughout the duration of development for the proposed project, Parcel C would be retained by the Lester Family for continued agricultural use. However, as part of a “life estate dedication,” upon
