GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT (GPA 85-2) FOR THE FOSTORIA WAY STUDY AREA The General Plan Amendment adopted through this action is as follows: a) Single Family Residential - Medium Density; 3-5 dwelling units per acre. This designation would apply to the northerly 385-470 feet of the site extending from its westerly boundary to a point approximately 1100 feet east of the dead end of Camino Ramon. At this point the Single Family designation would narrow to 250-290 feet then extending to the easterly boundary of the Podva property, including the portion of the Podva Property extending behind the existing single family homes. This area would include 22-24.5 acres and could yield from 60 to 112 dwellings depending on the ultimate width and density approved through the zoning (these figures do not apply density to the 2 acre northerly portion of the Podva Property). b) Multiple Family Residential - Medium Density 13-21 dwelling units per acre. This designation would apply to the southeastern portion of the site (including the southerly 470± feet of the Podva Property) extending from the extension of Camino Ramon from the south to the easterly boundary of the Podva property. This area totals approximately 8 acres and could yield from 104 to 168 dwellings. c) Commercial This designation would apply to approximately 30 - 32 acres at the southwest portion of the site adjacent to 1-680 and Fostoria Way. It would include approximately 5 acres for a hotel/motel development and 25 - 27.5 acres designated for destination commercial d) General Open Space This designation would apply to the area within the Southern Pacific Railroad right of way. The adopted General Plan Amendment is predicated on adoption of conditional zoning to affect the following: a) Circulation: 1) Camino Ramon should not be extended as a through street to Crow Canyon Road, but should provide access to the single family and multiple family development on the north and east portions of the Study Area directed northerly to Greenbrook Drive and Sycamore Valley Road. 2) Emergency vehicle access should be provided in one or more locations such that through access is provided for police and fire vehicles linking the northerly and southerly ends of Camino Ramon. Design of this emergency vehicle access should be subject to review and approval by the police and fire agencies, preferrably having electronically controlled gates such that response times are not impacted Further, an easement shall be provided extending from Camino Ramon on the north to Fostoria Way at sufficient width for extension of Camino Ramon if desired at some point in the future. 3) A new overcrossing of 1-680 at Fostoria Way should not be made a requirement of development of the Study Area at this time; and 4) The City and the various developers should cooperate with the City of San Ramon towards determining the optimum solution to cumulative traffic impacts. (An overcrossing at Fostoria Way is one alternative being considered.) 5) Due to existing uncertainties regarding necessary traffic improvements to address cumulative impacts, specific development approvals for the site should not be granted unless: i) individual developments conduct traffic studies which include specific traffic mitigations, or ii) an acceptable comprehensive traffic study has been completed which identifies comprehensive traffic improvements which are required. b) Land Use 1) The northerly portion of the Podva property should not be developed, but should be held for future acquisition for use in conjunction with the SPRR right-of-way or to be combined with the existing single family lots on the west side. 2) Agricultural Preserve status should not be granted for the Borel property. 3) The 1.8 acre parcel adjacent to 1-680 should be developed with a motel. 4) Preferred commercial uses on the site include the aforementioned motel and "destination commercial" uses such as automobile dealers, automobile related products, large destination type stores (Best, Simons, Toys R Us, etc.) and other similar stores which depend on the general public's knowledge of their location through marketing efforts or repeat shopping. 5) Residential uses shall be separated from adjoining commercial areas by substantial landscape buffering.
