Planning Commission Meeting Agenda Packet 04222026

P18-0078, P18-0080, P18-0081, PUD-130 and Tract 8569 (Hidden Canyon) Planning Commission 18 of 28 space access, along with required sidewalks along the Dublin Canyon Road frontage of Lot 30 and within the EBRPD access area to support future connectivity. The applicant will also be making a monetary contribution in the amount of $500,000 to be used by the City for future improvements to Dublin Canyon Road, including the potential widening of the Devaney Creek bridge in order to improve traffic circulation and enhance public safety. INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS The proposed project would be served by water from the City, via connection to the Moller 770 Pressure Zone, with the installation of a water booster pump station located near the entrance of the EVA on Dublin Canyon Road. Eight-inch water mains are proposed along Streets A and B, continuing along the EVA portion of Street A, and also within Court C. An 8-inch water main is also proposed to follow both the private and public roads surrounding the proposed Lots 29 and 30, connecting the roads along Dublin Canyon Road. Water would also be provided to the facilities at the proposed EBRPD Staging Area, though no sewer connection will be necessary for the EBRPD vaulted restroom as it will be pumped and maintained for cleanout by the EBRPD. CLIMATE ACTION PLAN In 2022, the City adopted Climate Action Plan (CAP) 2.0. The CAP 2.0 was reviewed by the Bay Area Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and was deemed a “Qualified Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategy” in accordance with the District’s CEQA guidelines. Implementation of the CAP will occur over several years. The CAP consists of amendments to regulations and policies related to Land Use and Transportation, Energy, Solid Waste, and Water and Wastewater, which result in reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in compliance with the targets set by AB 32, California’s Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. Staff completed an analysis of how the proposed project is consistent with or implements the applicable measures outlined in the City of Pleasanton’s CAP. The proposed project is consistent with multiple goals and strategies outlined in the CAP, specifically within the Buildings & Energy, Transportation & Land Use, and Water Resources sectors. The project supports Strategy BE-1 (Advance the decarbonization of buildings) through the incorporation of all-electric residential units, consistent with Supporting Action P1, which promotes all-electric new construction and reduces greenhouse gas emissions associated with natural gas use. The project also aligns with Strategy BE-3 (Expand use of renewable energy), as the future residential development would be subject to State and local requirements for solar readiness and energy efficiency. With respect to land use and transportation, the project is consistent with Strategy TLU-2 (Advance active, shared, and public transportation) and Strategy TLU-3 (Advance sustainable land use) by clustering residential development within the City’s Sphere of Influence,facilitating efficient infrastructure extension, and incorporating pedestrian and bicycle improvements along Dublin Canyon Road that support reduced vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Furthermore, the project is consistent with Strategy WR-1 (Improve water supply and increase conservation) and Strategy WR-2 (Improve stormwater resilience) by incorporating water- efficient fixtures, compliance with State water efficiency standards, and on-site stormwater
