From: Christine Lewis Sent: Tuesday, September 8, 2026 10:47 AM To: Derek Farmer <DFarmer@cityofpleasantonca.gov> Subject: P25-0727 Hello Derek, I would like to comment about the rezoning of 3825/3875 Hopyard as well as 5960 Inglewood. I am a Val Vista resident and I work in Pleasanton. I oppose the rezoning of the above mentioned addresses. I understand that the city of Pleasanton’s hands are tied in regards to the amount of residential growth required from the state of California. And I agree with certain rezoning areas that the city has looked at. The Rock Bible church on 1st is a location that makes sense as well as 4515 Rosewood. Those are not primarily single family neighborhoods. However, if the business offices at Hopyard and Inglewood are rezoned, there is significant concern about the high density residential builds that may be planned here. And that would be a detriment to the Val Vista neighborhood of Pleasanton. People purchase homes in this single family area for a reason. There is a reason people buy here and not in Dublin where there is a very different type of living. It is crowded and they have significant traffic and crime problems. The landscape of the entire neighborhood would change and I don’t think that’s right to do to existing homeowners and renters of this small, safe, and quiet neighborhood. The traffic at West Las Positas and Hopyard Road is already a problem at school times. It’s already a heavily impacted intersection. You would add a significant increase to that. Your notice mentioned up to 1438 builds for the 4 addresses. If you look at how many cars would be added on Hopyard and how many students would be added to the Donlon, Hart, and Foothill schools; it is not feasible to impact this small community in that way. The businesses at those locations could do more to fill their leases and be utilized for what they were planned for.
