PUD-74 Environmental Checklist <br />c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation <br />plan or natural community conservation plan? <br />Discussion <br />a) The subject property is surrounded bysingle-family homes, the City's Operation Service <br />Center, old Mohr Avenue street right of way, a Zone 71ake, and a portion of the former <br />Hanson Aggregates quarry. The proposed project would not physically divide an <br />established community. Therefore, this would be categorized as no-impact. <br />b) The site's "Public and Institutional/Medium Density Residential" General Plan Land Use <br />Designation and "Mixed Public & Institution/Medium Density Residential" zoning allow <br />either public school or medium density residential senior housing land uses. The <br />Medium Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation allows for 2 to 8 <br />dwelling units per acre (DUA) and a midpoint density of 5 DUA. This project, as <br />proposed, calculates to 4.8 DUA. The proposed medium density residential senior <br />housing development is consistent with the General Plan land use designation and zoning <br />for the site. <br />The proposed project would also further the following General Plan Programs and <br />Policies: <br />Land Use Element <br />Policy 2: Develop new housing in infill and peripheral azeas which is adjacent to <br />existing residential development. <br />Housing Element <br />Goal 1: Attain a variety of housing sizes, types, densities, designs, and prices which <br />meet the existing and projected needs of all economic segments of the community. <br />Goal 14: Provide adequate locations for housing of all types and in sufficient <br />quantities to meet Pleasanton's housing needs. <br />Policy 48: Provide for the special-housing needs of large families, the elderly, the <br />disabled, the homeless, and families with single-parent heads of households. <br />Policy 49: Highlight senior citizen housing issues so that the senior population of <br />Pleasanton has access to housing which meets their needs as the population ages. <br />Therefore, this would be categorized as no-impact <br />c) There is no habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan applicable <br />to the project area.
