The Pleasanton Planning Commission is set to weigh in on a development application this Wednesday that seeks to construct three new single-family homes on a 20-acre site along Brozosky Hill Lane in southeast Pleasanton.
According to the staff report, the project would retain an existing single-family home and build three new ones across 2.8 acres of the original 20-acre site.Â
“The existing home retained by the existing property owner would be situated on the remaining 17.2-acre portion of the original lot,” city associate planner Jenny Soo wrote in the staff report.
The project is coming before the commission as part of the city’s Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan.
According to Soo, the city has been approving similar projects over the last decade on sites included in the Vineyard specific plan and Planned Unit Development rezoning for a 384-acre area in southeast Pleasanton, which was adopted back in June 1999.
“The VACSP Land Use Plan identifies general home locations for each site within the VACSP, referred to as the ‘blob areas’,” Soo said. “The proposed project proposes to group the identified house locations, or ‘blobs’, for less hillside disturbance.”
The VACSP allotted a total of three new residential units at the project site in question, also known as Lot 24, in addition to the existing residence.
According to Soo, the project proposes a four-lot single family residential development plan and land subdivision on the site, located at 1 Brozosky Hill Lane. The property is located on the south side of the Vineyard Avenue trail.
The new homes, Soo said, would be located on the northern side of the site and would use a segment of the existing driveway for access.
“The home sites would be aligned parallel to the Vineyard Avenue trail. Access to each new home site would be via a privately owned and maintained access easement,” Soo said.
During the meeting, the commission will vote on a resolution that, if approved, will signal the commission’s support for the development and would recommend the City Council follow suit in approving staff’s recommendations to green light the application.
“Staff finds that the proposed project is sensitively designed to address the natural topography of the site, key environmental features, and the visual character of the Vineyard Corridor area,” Soo wrote in Wednesday’s report.
“In addition, the project meets key objectives of the VACSP, including the creation of a transition area between more urbanized portions of Pleasanton to the east and open space areas to the west,” she added. “Therefore, staff is recommending that the Commission recommend approval of the proposed project to the City Council.”
The Planning Commission meeting is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. Wednesday (Sept. 23). The full agenda can be accessed here.
