? <br /> <br />Light or glare from the proposed automall sign that would presumably be well-lit, <br />with the residential units that are close by. <br /> <br />Commissioner Narum’s Comments: <br /> <br />In addition to those already mentioned: <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Noise from the freeway and the air traffic in relation to parks and the tennis <br />courts: understand if this would be an appropriate use. <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Visuals on the four-story buildings to give a sense of the mass. <br /> <br />Commissioner Olson’s Comments: <br /> <br />In addition to those already mentioned: <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Extension of El Charro Road to Stanley Boulevard. <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Berm: leaving the established and mature berm the way it is. In a recent project, <br />a developer provided land along one section of the property such that the <br />development would not go up to the property line. <br /> <br />Chairperson Fox’s Comments: <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />The EIR for KB Homes in 1998 was not certified because cut-through traffic was <br />not adequately addressed in the traffic models. Look into the reasons why it was <br />not certified; what areas the Council considered weak and why. <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Aesthetics: inadequate open space buffer separation between the existing homes <br />that would back up to the skilled nursing facility; look at buffer separation at the <br />existing convalescent home at 300 Neal Street. <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Glare: the lighting configuration of the parking lot if this will be a gated <br />community care facility and would be constantly patrolled; glare that would be <br />generated from the automall into the community care facility. <br /> <br />? <br /> <br />Air Quality: jet fuel resulting from proposed increased jet operations at the <br />Livermore Airport; look at Livermore’s Airport Master Plan, although this has not <br />been completed, in terms of the proximity of the airport and increased jet traffic. <br /> <br />Commissioner Blank noted that it would be good to look at the current plans but that <br />there would be no value in looking at plans that have been rejected. <br /> <br />Commissioner Olson noted that the prevailing winds should be considered as well since <br />the airplanes take off to the west quite a bit, which then directs pollution towards the <br />opposite direction. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES April 11, 2007 Page 13 of 18 <br /> <br /> <br />
