V. PUBLIC NOTICE <br />Notice of the proposed project was mailed to the surrounding property owners and tenants <br />within 1,000 feet of the subject property. At the writing of this report, staff had not received any <br />written or verbal comments pertaining to the proposal. <br />VI. PUD CONSIDERATIONS <br />The Zoning Ordinance of the Municipal Code sets forth purposes of the Planned Unit <br />Development District and `'considerations" to be addressed in reviewing a PUD development <br />plan. <br />1. Whether the plan is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general <br />welfare: <br />The project would include the installation of private utility systems to serve the office <br />building. Adequate storm drain, sanitary sewer, and water service utilities are present in <br />the area surrounding the development and are sufficient to serve the new building. All <br />on-site infrastructure would be installed by the project developer with connections to <br />municipal systems in order to serve the site. As conditioned, drive aisles and driveways <br />will be designed and constructed to City standards.

Stormwater run-off from the site will be treated before leaving the <br />site.

The office building would help the City maintain a strong economic base <br />and would be consistent with Goal Number 1 of the General Plan Land Use Element. In <br />addition, the proposed project would provide additional space for businesses to serve <br />residents and businesses of Pleasanton and its market area and would be consistent with <br />Policy 4 of the General Plan's Land Use Element. <br />A portion of the project site is located within the North Sycamore Specific Plan.
