The project is located on a gently sloping east-facing hillside. These <br />guidelines are intended to promote architecture and landscape designs that are <br />compatible with hillside terrain and minimize visual impacts from below. <br /> <br />The Architectural Guidelines for Meadowlark Estates are created to allow individual lot <br />development with a high level of architectural integrity. It provides a procedure for <br />achieving architectural uniqueness that promotes a sense of neighborhood and is <br />designed to protect existing and future property values. <br /> <br />These guidelines are intended to be <br />used by residents, architects and <br />landscape architects, as well as the <br />City of Pleasanton Planning staff to <br />ensure the compatibility of the <br />proposed new residences with the <br />surrounding neighborhood and with <br />one another. The guidelines detail <br />the process of plan review and <br />interpretation of design intent and <br />include recommendations on <br />architectural integrity, composition <br />and proportion, as well as specifics <br />regarding exterior materials, <br />finishes and landscaping. <br /> <br /> <br />It is not the intent of these guidelines to dictate specific architectural styles that must <br />be used within the community, but rather to give property owners and their architects <br />(or designers) a set of guidelines that will make the entire community a more <br />attractive place to live. Although no specific architectural styles are mandated, a <br />consistency in style and detail and a high level of architectural refinement is required. <br />All homes must be compatible with the hillside location. <br /> <br />Each owner should strive to design a building that is in harmony with its surroundings. <br />The most important step in this process is to choose a competent design team, <br />including an Architect and Landscape Architect. It is the task of that team to translate <br />these guidelines into appropriate home and landscape designs. <br /> <br />Each owner, in addition to satisfying the requirements set forth in the Submittals and <br />Review Process shall determine and satisfy the requirements imposed by the City of <br />Pleasanton in connection with its construction. Adherence to these guidelines does not <br />constitute a representation that the proposed construction will be approved by the City <br />of Pleasanton or that it conforms to the zoning or building requirements thereof. <br /> <br />It is very important that every purchaser at Meadowlark Estates and their design team <br /> <br />< <br />
