<br />Dear Sir, <br /> <br />I am a home owner of 4443 Bowen Street, Pleasanton, CA 94588. I would like to bring to <br />your attention the following concerns we have regarding the construction at 4001 <br />Stoneridge Drive (Saint Elizabeth Seton Church). <br /> <br />Subject: PDR - 561/PV -158, John Miller Architects / Saint Elizabeth Seton Church <br /> <br />Some of our concerns regarding the proposal are listed below: <br /> <br />1. Size of the project and its proximity to existing homes. We are very concerned <br />about the impact on the quality of life of surrounding residents. <br /> <br />2. Traffic study - there is insufficient information about the effect on traffic <br />especially during peak hours. With recent incidents like the Vintage Hills accident <br />this takes on more importance, particularly since the project is in the middle of a <br />residential area. <br /> <br />3. Impact of cutting short parking spaces - historically overflow parking goes onto <br />Bowen and Alexander Streets. <br /> <br />4. Noise thresholds - air conditioning and heating unit locations. SOUND / NOISE <br />THRESHOLD (in terms of decibels). Impact of backup generators, maintenance <br />equipment noise on nearby residents. <br /> <br />5. Critters - The land is currently uninhabited and may be a habitat for small animals <br />and critters. Construction would disturb them and force them to migrate to nearby <br />areas. What is being done by the sponsors of the project about this? <br /> <br />6. Safety and security -skateboarders occasionally use the parking area - have we <br />considered ifthis may attract more of such activities? Teenager program is our <br />concern in the night as mentioned in the use of the facility. <br /> <br />7. View Analysis, Landscape Analysis - Landscaping Plan and 3600 Perimeter <br />View. There are not enough details in the documents regarding the Landscape <br />Plan. <br /> <br />8. Smell / Odor Control- based on the location dumpster enclosure, nearby <br />residents will be affected by odors from garbage. Use of Backend of the building <br />for storage, maintenance equipments, and garbage impacts the residents directly. <br /> <br />9. Hours of Operation - This is a neighborhood with families and young children. <br />There will be a huge (negative) impact on the quality oflife for surrounding <br />neighbors. <br /> <br />IRlIECIE~VIEIDl <br /> <br />NUV (, i' 2006 <br /> <br />CITY OF PLEASANTON <br />PLANNING DEPT. <br />
