City of Pleasanton—Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve Project CEQA Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations FirstCarbon Solutions 5 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 the passing of the last Lester Family member ownership of this parcel would transfer to the EBRPD, thus securing approximately 76.9 acres of open space, parking/staging, and trail use. Parcel A, Parcel C, and Parcel D are located inside the City’s UGB and would be annexed into the City as part of the proposed project. Parcel B is located outside of the City’s UGB and would not be annexed into the City as part of the proposed project. Roadway Improvements The proposed project would construct several roadway improvements on Dublin Canyon Road, including the construction of a traffic signal and a proposed pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Canyon Meadows Drive and Dublin Canyon Road across from the Oak Hills Congregation to facilitate access to the proposed EBRPD trailhead. Six-foot-wide bike lanes would also be constructed on both sides of Dublin Canyon Road along the northern frontage of the project site. An Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) roadway would also be constructed to facilitate connection between the southern boundary of the Oak Hills Congregation Site from Dublin Canyon Road and the proposed Street A. The existing Oak Hills Congregation Site is located inside the City’s UGB and would be annexed into the City as part of the proposed project. Construction For purposes of analysis in the Draft EIR, construction was assumed to occur in five sub-phases from the first quarter of 2026 to the second quarter of 2028. Residential construction would occur in one phase and would involve the removal of accessory structures and the two existing residential structures owned by the Lester Family on Lots 29 and 30 at the northeastern portion of the site. Grading would cover approximately 21.2 acres and would generate approximately 129,850 cubic yards of material to support the construction of lots, streets, and foundations. 14,630 cubic yards of trench spoils and anticipated soil swelling would result in a total of 142,200 cubic yards of cut and fill work, which would be balanced on site. The proposed grading is designed to avoid potential impacts to Devany Creek and associated vegetation, and would provide a natural slope beyond the proposed residences. Specifically, grading at the two Lester Family-owned sites would avoid areas of 25 percent slope or greater except along small road segments at the sites’ entrance on Dublin Canyon Road and along a portion of the EVA. Construction traffic would use Dublin Canyon Road to access the project site for all site development activities. Construction staging would occur along Dublin Canyon Road when feasible and at the site of the proposed EBRPD trailhead and parking area. Construction hours would comply with the City’s Municipal Code requirements and would occur between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Limited construction would occur on Sundays and holidays only as needed with pre-approval by the Chief Building Official.
