Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 1-1
The Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan is a long-range plan that guides decision-making and establishes rules and standards for new development and city improvements. It reflects the city’s vision for the future and is intended to provide direction through the year 2040. The 2040 Pleasant Hill General Plan seeks to provide future opportunities for innovative development types, expanded economic development, the creation of unique growth areas, and upgraded public facilities and services, making the city the best place to live in the Bay Area.
The Introduction is divided into the following sections:

Purpose and Use of the General Plan
What is a General Plan?
Every jurisdiction in California must have a General Plan, which is the local government’s long-term framework or “constitution” for future growth and development. The General Plan is prepared with extensive community engagement to create a plan that expresses the community’s vision for its future.
California State law requires that each town, city, and county must adopt a General Plan for the physical development of the jurisdiction and any land outside its boundaries that bears relation to its planning.
Typically, a General Plan is designed to address the issues facing the jurisdiction for the next 20 years.
A General Plan typically has four defining features:
General. A General Plan provides general policy guidance that will be used to direct future land use and resource decisions.
Comprehensive. A General Plan is comprehensive, covering topics such as land use; housing; economic development; racial, social, and environmental justice; sustainability and resiliency; mobility; public safety; recreation; natural resources; and much more. Long-Range. A General Plan provides guidance on reaching a future envisioned 20 or more years in the future. To achieve the vision, a General Plan includes goals, policies, and implementation programs that address both immediate and long-term needs. Integrated and Coherent. The goals, policies, and implementation programs in a General Plan present a comprehensive, unified program for development, resource conservation, and other issues that impact the community. A General Plan uses a consistent set of assumptions and projections to assess future demands for housing, employment, and public services (e.g., infrastructure). A General Plan has a coherent set of policies and implementation programs that enables citizens to understand the vision of the General Plan, and provides landowners, businesses, and industry greater certainty relative to the City’s future implementation of these policies and programs.
A General Plan comprises a collection of “elements” or chapters that cover mandatory topics, as well as topics important to the community. The State requires inclusion of the following eight elements in the General Plan: land use, circulation, housing, conservation, open space, noise, safety, and environmental justice. Though the required topics must be addressed in the General Plan, communities can organize their General Plan anyway they choose. Communities may also include other optional elements that address issues of local interest. In Pleasant Hill, the one optional element included in this document is the Economics and Economy Element.
The General Plan is not to be confused with zoning. Although both the General Plan and the zoning ordinance designate how land may be developed, they do so in different ways. The General Plan has a
1. Introduction
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 1-3
long-term outlook and vision. It identifies the types of development that will be allowed, the spatial relationships among land uses, and the general pattern of future development. Zoning implements the General Plan vision by regulating future development through specific standards, such as lot size, building setbacks, and allowable uses. However, the land uses shown on the General Plan diagrams will typically be reflected in the local zoning maps as well, as to the two must be consistent per State law. Development must not only meet the specific requirements of the zoning ordinance, but also the broader policies set forth in the General Plan.
The Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan meets the requirements of State law by containing the required elements and one optional element, as described in more detail later in this chapter under “Organization of the General Plan.” Some of the required elements address additional issues of local interest. For example, the Land Use Element is expanded to consider Environmental Justice. and the required elements of Conservation and Air Quality are found in the broader Environment Element. Each element contains goals and policies that will guide future decisions within the City. They each also identify a set of implementation programs that will be used to ensure the goals and policies in the General Plan are carried out.
Using the General Plan
The General Plan is used by the City Council, Planning Commission, and City staff to make decisions with direct or indirect land use implications. It also provides a framework for inter-jurisdictional coordination of planning efforts among officials and staff of the City and other government agencies (e.g., Federal, State, and local). City residents, property owners, and businesses use the General Plan for guidance on City policies for particular geographic areas or for particular subjects of interest to them.
The General Plan is the basis for a variety of regulatory measures and administrative procedures.
California planning law requires consistency between the General Plan and its implementing programs, such as zoning and subdivision ordinances, capital improvement programs, specific plans, environmental impact procedures, and building and housing codes.
The specific roles of the City Council, Planning Commission, and City Departments with respect to the approval and use of the General Plan are described below.
The City Council is the political body that formulates and implements policies in Pleasant Hill. Through its decision-making authority, the Council affirms the policy direction and priorities contained within this General Plan. The City Council is ultimately responsible for adoption of the General Plan, as well as the regulations, capital improvement programs, and financing mechanisms that implement the General Plan.
The Planning Commission is responsible for conducting public hearings on the General Plan and Zoning Code modifications, considering public input, and making recommendations to the City Council on these matters. After the General Plan is adopted, the Planning Commission must ensure that all Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
1-4 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
subsequent land use ordinances, policies, guidelines, and development applications are consistent with the goals, policies, and programs in the General Plan.
All City Departments use the General Plan for policy guidance as it pertains to their operations, service delivery, and planning for future capital projects and potential service level changes. The City’s Planning staff ensure that that the General Plan is implemented on a day-to-day basis so that:
appropriate land uses are proposed in the proper locations, appropriate levels of service are provided, proposed land uses conform to development regulations, and the environment has been adequately protected. The General Plan is a resource for all City services and provides an internally consistent checkpoint for assessing alternatives for the City’s future.
Maintaining the General Plan
Over time, the City’s population will likely increase, its goals will evolve, and the physical environment in which its residents live, and work will change. In order for the General Plan to be a useful document, it must be monitored and periodically revised to respond to and reflect changing conditions and needs over time.
The General Plan should be reviewed annually, with a more comprehensive and thorough review and revision done every ten years to reflect changes in local conditions, new local priorities, or State law.
State law permits the General Plan to be amended up to four times in any calendar year, unless special conditions apply as defined by Government Code Sections 65358(c) and (d). Each amendment may contain more than one change to the General Plan.
General Plan Amendments can be initiated by the City or at the request of a property owner. Each General Plan Amendment goes through a public review process with review and hearings with the Planning Commission and City Council. Each Amendment is also subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
How the General Plan was Prepared
The development of the General Plan began in February 2019. The Council appointed an advisory committee to guide the preparation of the 2040 General Plan, consisting of two City Council Members, two Planning Commissioners, and one Architectural Review Committee member. This group collectively became known as the General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC). The 2040 General Plan was shaped over a three-year period by an extensive public outreach process that engaged residents, businesses, developers, and decision-makers.
Community Engagement
The 2040 General Plan was shaped through a public outreach approach that provided an opportunity for all community members to be involved as an integral component in the General Plan process. The City gathered community input through the following methods:

Community Workshops
On August 4, 2019, at a “Concerts on the Lake” event, the City held a pop-up community workshop to collect community input on existing conditions and trends; issues and opportunities in the City; and the Vision for the General Plan. The pop-up booths were a series of stations with informative boards and interactive activities for community members of all ages. On August 21, 2019, at an Off the Grid event, the City held a second pop-up community workshop to collect community input on existing conditions and trends; issues and opportunities in the City; and the Vision for the General Plan. The exercises at both pop-up booths were also replicated on the General Plan website for those who were not able to attend in person. These exercises remained open for additional community input.
1. Introduction
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 1-7
From November 14-16, 2019, the City of Pleasant Hill hosted three days of planning and design workshops as part of the 2040 General Plan Update. The goal of the workshops was to bring community members, planners, and City staff together to develop a range of alternatives to address future housing, economic development, transportation, and other community needs. Throughout 2021-2022 the City facilitated a series of Housing Element focus meetings including two Townhall Events. The Townhall events provided an overview of the Housing Element process, the difference between the 5th and 6th Cycle Updates, and how interplay between the Housing Element and 2040 General Plan.

General Plan Update Website – www.pleasanthill2040.com
To help expand the outreach efforts of the General Plan, a project website (www.pleasanthill2040.com) was created to provide information on the process including information on the General Plan, meeting dates and locations, and related documents. The City used regular updates to the project website throughout the update process to keep community members informed and involved. eBlasts
Throughout the update process, the City sent timely eBlasts to the General Plan contact list, which included elected and appointed officials, City Staff, stakeholders, and engaged community members.
People could join the contact list through a link on the project website, by signing-in at a General Plan community workshop or public meeting, or by directly contacting the City of Pleasant Hill.
General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC)
To help City staff and the consulting team develop the update to the General Plan, the City formed a General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC). The GPAC serves as a sounding board for the discussion of issues, opportunities, and the development of the General Plan that will guide the community’s future.
The GPAC consists of two City Council Members, two Planning Commissioners, and one Architectural Review Committee member. Through the duration of the project the GPAC facilitated over 20 meetings to review deliverables and provide direction and feedback to the consultant team and City staff.
The GPAC members are:
Councilmember Ken Carlson
Councilmember Sue Noack
Planning Commissioner Alex Khalfin
Planning Commissioner Chadwick Wyler
Architectural Review Commissioner Will Nelson
Former GPAC Member Allen Vinson (Planning Commissioner) Former GPAC Member Karla Moseley (Architectural Review Commissioner) Planning Commission and City Council Meetings, Study Sessions, and Public Hearings
The City held various Planning Commission and City Council Meetings, Study Sessions, and Public Hearings throughout the update process to inform decision-makers and the public, discuss key milestones, and provide direction for the next steps.

Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
1-10 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
Create the conditions necessary to stimulate the diversity of housing options for community members of all ages and incomes.
Analyses Informing the 2040 General Plan
As part of the City of Pleasant Hill General Plan update process, the City prepared the following General Plan supporting documents:
Existing Conditions and Trends Workbook. The Existing Conditions and Trends Workbook summarized where Pleasant Hill has been, its current status and standing, and trends that will shape its future. Topical areas will include land use, demographic and market analysis, circulation and transportation, and natural and cultural resources. The Workbook served as the foundation for the Growth and Policy Alternatives as part of the planning and design workshops, as well as laying the groundwork for the goal, policy, and implementation program creation in the Policy Document.
Land Use Memorandum. The Land Use Memorandum described the results from community feedback from the planning and design workshops in the Fall of 2019. The memorandum identified focus areas that could experience the most land use change, and highlighted potential change that can occur through 2040 in each of those areas. The memorandum was subsequently updated following the initiation of the 6th Cycle Housing Element to ensure consistency with the Housing Sites Inventory process. The City Council ultimately adopted a 2040 Preferred Alternative on May 16, 2022, based on recommendations by the community, GPAC, and Planning Commission, that reflects the land use process of the General Plan. Environmental Impact Report. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) responds to the requirements of CEQA, as set forth in Sections 15126, 15175, and 15176 of the CEQA Guidelines Act. The Planning Commission and City Council will use the EIR during the General Plan update process to consider potential environmental implications associated with implementing the General Plan and to identify feasible mitigation measures for significant impacts. The General Plan EIR may also be used in the environmental evaluation of future projects. Future projects may be able to build (tier) their environmental review on the General Plan EIR if they are consistent with the General Plan.
The Pleasant Hill Community
At the end of World War II, the Pleasant Hill area shifted from an agricultural community to a suburban residential one with rapid construction of housing subdivisions on land previously used for agriculture.
In the 1950s, residents began pushing for incorporation of Pleasant Hill into a city. After a few failures, the community voted to incorporate in November 1961. Pleasant Hill became the 12th city in Contra Costa County and the 375th city in the state.
1. Introduction
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 1-11
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, large companies followed their employees to suburban areas east of San Francisco. The establishment of large population centers fostered the development of equally large shopping centers. To meet demand for transportation infrastructure, the State modernized highways, roadways, and rail transit to enhance access to jobs and population centers throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. In 1964, the State completed Interstate 680 (I-680) connecting the counties of Santa Clara, Alameda, and Contra Costa. In 1973, the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) completed the construction of the Concord BART line. These investments contributed to exponential growth for cities like Pleasant Hill.
Pleasant Hill initially grew as a series of subdivisions that served as a bedroom community for other Bay Area cities. As a result, the city lacked a city center. In 1974, the City adopted the Pleasant Hill Commons Redevelopment Plan, covering an area around the intersection of Contra Costa Boulevard and Monument Boulevard. The City established a redevelopment agency to build and finance projects.
The agency, unable to finance the downtown project at its inception, started with several smaller projects to build funds. This, combined with alterations to the plan to reflect changing community priorities and economic conditions, led to the delay in the completion of the new downtown in 2000.
The new downtown included a new City Hall, which opened in 1991, and a walkable main street with retail and entertainment opportunities.
Today, Pleasant Hill is much like it has been for the past several decades. The city is defined by its quiet, residential character with most neighborhoods consisting of single-family homes. However, change is happening as a result of regional growth pressure and the demand for housing. Multifamily developments are becoming more common in the city, especially close to downtown, along major corridors, and close to the BART station on the edge of the city limits.
Regional Context
Pleasant Hill is in Contra Costa County in the San Francisco Bay Area (Figure 1-1). The city is bound by the communities of Walnut Creek to the south, Concord to the east, Lafayette to the southwest, and Pacheco and Martinez to the north. The Briones Hills are to the east of the city, forming a natural barrier to development between the San Francisco Bay and inland East Bay valleys.
I-680 runs primarily to the east of Pleasant Hill, roughly following the eastern edge of the city. The freeway crosses city limits for a little over a mile near downtown Pleasant Hill, separating a few neighborhoods from the rest of the city. BART’s Antioch-Millbrae (yellow) line runs further to the east and south of Pleasant Hill, with the Pleasant Hill/Contra Costa Centre Station located just outside of the city limits to the southeast. I-680 and BART connect Pleasant Hill to the broader Bay Area.
Pleasant Hill is inextricably connected to the San Francisco Bay Area; the city largely remains a bedroom community for the larger cities in the region. The city is situated 15 miles northeast from the City of Oakland and 20 miles northeast of San Francisco. San Jose and the Silicon Valley are approximately 40 miles south of Pleasant Hill.

Pleasant Hill Planning Boundaries
The existing General Plan uses several terms to describe the city and associated planning boundaries (Figure 1-2):
City Limits. The political boundary that defines land that has been incorporated into a city.
Pleasant Hill has land use authority over all land within its city limits, which spans over 4,500 acres.
Sphere of Influence. The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) establishes the sphere of influence (SOI), which defines the probable physical boundary and service area of a local agency. An SOI typically includes both incorporated and unincorporated areas within which the City will have primary responsibility for the provision of public facilities and services. The Pleasant Hill SOI is over 5,700 acres. The City is not responsible for providing public services and facilities (e.g., water, sewer, libraries, parks, fire, etc.) to those areas within the SOI that are located outside of city limits.
Planning Area. A general plan, pursuant to State law, must address all areas within the jurisdiction’s Planning Area. The Planning Area encompasses all incorporated and unincorporated territory that bears a physical relationship to the long-term planning of the city.
For Pleasant Hill, the Planning Area is defined as the area encompassing both the city limits and SOI.

How to Read Goals and Policies
Goal
A goal is a statement that describes in general terms a desired future condition or “end” state. Goals describe ideal future conditions for a topic and tend to be very general and broad.
Policy
A policy is a clear and unambiguous statement that guides a specific course of action for decisionmakers to achieve a desired goal.
1. Introduction
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 1-19
“Shall” vs. “Should”
Policies and implementation measures throughout the General Plan use terms such as “shall” and “should” to define the intentions of the City relative to these components. These modifiers are used as follows in the General Plan:
“Must” or “shall” or “required” are used to signify a mandatory requirement that the City will follow. For example, Policy E-5.1 says: “The City shall continue to encourage organizations that promote Pleasant Hill as a visitor destination and work with the local business community to ensure that a full range of visitor services, events and attractions is available to maximize the economic benefit from this market.”
Words such as “should” or “may” are used to signify a less rigid directive that will be honored in the absence of compelling or contravening considerations. For example, Policy ENV-2.6 says:
“Creek setbacks, where feasible, should exceed minimum regulatory setback guidelines to protect native vegetation and enhance creek environments.” This provides flexibility in addressing the policy in the context of the project or proposal.

Overarching Topic Icons
The Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan contains a number of goals, policies, and implementation programs that address cross-cutting topics that weave throughout the General Plan. To highlight these goals, policies, and implementation programs, this General Plan uses one or more icons to highlight if a goal, policy, or implementation program is directly related to one or more of these topics. The icons are described below:
Sustainability
Sustainability includes the physical development and operating practices that meet the needs of present users without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, particularly regarding use and waste of natural resources. Sustainability recognizes that certain resources are finite, and therefore should be used conservatively and wisely with a view to the longterm priorities and consequences. Items marked with this icon are designed to enhance the City’s sustainability relative to a wide range of resources.
Environmental Justice
Pursuant Government Code Section 65302(h), general plans “must include an environmental justice element or include goals and policies in other element(s) of the general plan to reduce the unique or compounded health risks in disadvantaged communities by reducing pollution exposure, improving air quality, and promoting public facilities, food access, safe and sanitary homes, and physical activity; promote civil engagement in the public decision-making process; and prioritize improvements and programs that address the needs of disadvantaged communities.” State law defines “disadvantaged communities” as areas that are disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and other hazards that can lead to negative health effects, exposure, or environmental degradation. Items marked with this icon are designed to identify which goals, policies, and implementation programs that address issues related to disadvantaged communities.
Healthy Communities
The 2040 General Plan focuses on promoting healthy communities and the connection between the built environment and public health. Healthy communities focus on providing for a quality and sustainable environment, supporting economic and social development, ensuring social equity, and encouraging social relationships that are supportive and respectful to meet all residents’ basic needs across a lifespan. To improve population health outcomes, the City needs to focus on policies, systems, and implementation programs that address the social and environmental determinants of health. Items marked with this icon are designed to identify goal, policies, and programs that affect and promote overall community health.
Environmental Impact Report Mitigation
To evaluate the environmental implications of the 2040 General Plan, the City prepared a Program EIR pursuant to the CEQA. As part of this process, some policies will be developed specifically to reduce the potential for significant environmental impacts. These policies constitute mitigation measures and ensure that implementation of the 2040 General Plan will include the reduction of associated environmental impacts in accordance with CEQA. Items marked with this icon are also included in the EIR as mitigation measures.

2 Economics and Economy Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 2-1
The fiscal health of a community is essential to providing a high level of public services and community amenities, while contributing significantly to the quality of life. Economic conditions in the private sector gauge existing trends and opportunities and point towards shifts and transitions in the local economy. All of this affects the prosperity of Pleasant Hill residents and the tax base that supports the delivery of municipal services. The Economics and Economy Element includes goals, policies, and programs related to retention and expansion of existing business sectors, attracting new businesses, and diversifying the economy to develop new kinds of businesses in the city.
Goals, policies, and implementation programs in this element are organized under the following headings:

2-2 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
Key Terms
Adaptive Reuse (Reuse). The practice of converting underutilized buildings from their original or most recent use to a new use.
Entertainment Businesses. Establishments that operate facilities or provide services that enable patrons to participate in recreational activities or pursue amusement, hobby and leisure activities; establishments that preserve and exhibit objects and sites of historical, cultural or educational interest; or, establishments that are involved in producing, promoting, or participating in live performances, events or exhibits intended for public viewing.
Mixed Use. Mixed Use allows residential, retail, commercial, office and/or public uses with flexible parking and setback requirements (subject to compliance with the Housing Element). Individual MixedUse projects are not expected to contain any specific combination of these uses and may only include one land use. The development potential of each Mixed-Use site shall be determined through project review under the provisions of the Planned Unit Development (PUD) Zoning District, or other discretionary land use entitlement process as determined by the City.
Sphere of Influence (SOI). An area that includes the probable physical boundaries and service area of a local agency, as determined by the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) of the county. (See Figure 1-2, in Chapter 1, Introduction)
Commercial Business Retention and Expansion
Pleasant Hill’s largest industries (by employment) include retail trade (20%), health care (23%), government (17%), and leisure and hospitality (13%). The City has an opportunity to cultivate a business mix that serves the evolving range of residents’ needs and desires, while also attracting visitors. Dining and retail establishments are particularly important, not only for generating revenue, but also as centers for community gathering and recreation. It is also important to support the growth of entertainment and other businesses that contribute to an exciting customer experience. Promoting an attractive shopping environment is critical to commercial success as brick-and-mortar retail evolves with the expansion of online sales platforms.
Promote the economic health of the downtown and the city as a whole, particularly through the growth of businesses that generate sales taxes and other revenues for the City.
E-1.1 Mixed-use
Encourage mixed-use development downtown and at other sites where appropriate.
E-1.2 Annexations
Consider annexation of land in the Sphere of Influence when likely to generate positive net fiscal benefits to the City and provide open space, housing, or employment opportunities.
2. Economics and Economy Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 2-3
Facilitate additional retail and commercial opportunities that meet local needs.
E-2.1 Uses Along Contra Costa Boulevard
Facilitate the improvement and upgrading of older and outmoded uses along Contra Costa Boulevard, including mixed-use development where feasible.
E-2.2 Mix of Retailers
Support the attraction and development of more local businesses and firms with creative and innovative business concepts in terms of the product sold, shopping experience, and/or the way that the tenant space is used. A mix of local, regional, and national retailers will offer a diversity of product and pricing choices to local residents.
Encourage the integration of entertainment and high demand service uses (such as creative studios, consumer-oriented class spaces, and youth attractions) with retail to create attractive shopper environments.
E-2.3 Retail and Restaurant Uses
Encourage quality retail and restaurant uses in strategic locations to support the success of mixed-use developments.
E-2.4 Cultural and Business Activity at Diablo Valley College (DVC) Support DVC’s desire to create a hub of entertainment, commerce and education that benefits students, residents and the business community alike.
Economic Diversification and Expansion
The cornerstone for ensuring economic longevity is continued investment in successful local industries. While government and health care will continue to play a central role in the city’s economic base, it is important that the City also invests energy into diversifying industries and employment opportunities, particularly jobs suitable for residents who commute out of Pleasant Hill to work. In 2018, more than 80 percent of the City’s workforce commuted out of town, mainly to jobs in information technology, finance, and professional and technical services. A more diversified economy provides the potential for successful collaboration, as well as options to ensure that the city is resilient and able to maintain its economic competitiveness in the event of changing climate or economic conditions. The City can leverage strong partnerships with local education and workforce training institutions such as DVC to support business attraction and expansion. City policy should also recognize that economic growth in Contra Costa County and the surrounding region also benefits Pleasant Hill workers by reducing longer commutes.
Create and maintain a dynamic and diverse economic base.
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
2-4 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
E-3.1 City Serving Retail and Commercial Growth
Allow for changes to General Plan commercial land use designations that enhance the City’s retail and commercial growth provided such changes include effective mitigation of environmental constraints, noise, traffic, and other hazards. Further, in consideration of such changes, the City Council may require the provision of public benefit, including, but not limited to, provision of affordable housing pursuant to the policies in the City’s Housing Element; or, provision of parkland, trails, or other community or recreation facilities or equivalent funding for development of such facilities; or other appropriate public benefit as determined by the City Council.
E-3.2 Existing Business Support
Support existing businesses and encourage them to expand when appropriate.
E-3.3 New Businesses
Prioritize attraction of new businesses that:
x are independent and not affiliated with national chains; x are innovative and creative in concept in terms of the product being sold and/or the building or space that the business is located within; x fill unique niches and/or unmet demand;
x augment needed services and/or popular existing amenities (including recreation, retail and restaurant uses);
x generate net fiscal benefits to the City, such as tax revenues; x create higher-paying, higher-skill, and/or higher-quality jobs for local residents; x match the skill levels of the local labor pool;
x have potential to stimulate other private investment in the city; x are compatible with existing infrastructure and the environment; x support, participate in, and promote civic activities; x create minimal negative impact on the surrounding community; and x require minimal public investment.

2. Economics and Economy Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 2-5
Enlarge the City’s revenue base as necessary to sustain and support the community.
E-4.1 Revenue Base Impacts
Evaluate and support proposed development to determine whether it would have a positive impact on the City’s revenue base.

The City shall continue to encourage organizations that promote Pleasant Hill as a visitor destination and work with the local business community to ensure that a full range of visitor services, events and attractions is available to maximize the economic benefit from this market.
Economic Infrastructure
Modern business activity depends on key communications infrastructure such as broadband capacity and access. As workplace and educational environments adapt to changing conditions, the availability of high-capacity internet in residential neighborhoods in addition to business districts is increasingly critical. Also, changes in personal transportation systems to include electric vehicles, ride sharing services, car/scooter/bike sharing services, and increasing consumer interest in active transportation opportunities will dramatically change the need for transportation infrastructure. The City can improve its economic competitiveness by supporting the installation of future-oriented infrastructure and promoting the high level of services available to both businesses and workers in Pleasant Hill.
Encourage the development and expansion of critical communications and transportation infrastructure.
E-6.1 Broadband Network
Encourage the expansion of a high-capacity broadband network in Pleasant Hill and other high-capacity internet technologies as they evolve.

3 Land Use Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 3-1
Land use policies ultimately guide development and shape the urban fabric. The Land Use Element includes goals, policies, and programs that guide land development in the city. The Element addresses the type and intensity of development allowed on a site, the mix of uses permitted within the city, and the character of the community.
Of all the elements of the General Plan, the Land Use Element has the most significant impact on existing and future residents because it determines the general location of residential, commercial, industrial, public, and open space uses. This Element balances land use issues, opportunities, and constraints with the community’s other needs and desires. Goals, policies, and implementation programs in this element are organized under the following headings:

3.1 Land Use Diagram and Designations
The most familiar part of any general plan is the map, or land use diagram, showing the types and locations of future development that the general plan envisions. The following sections provide an overview of the 22 land use designations. The following sub-sections first describe how the standards are expressed generally, then outline the standards for each of the designations shown on Pleasant Hill’s General Plan Land Use Diagram.
Land Use Development Standards
State planning law requires general plans to establish “standards of population density and building intensity” for the various land use designations in the plan (Government Code Section 65302(a)). To satisfy this requirement, the General Plan includes standards for each land use designation appearing on the Land Use Diagram. These standards are stated differently for residential and nonresidential development. The following are explanations of how these standards are applied to development proposals.
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
3-6 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
Density
Residential development is categorized by an allowed density range (minimum and maximum) measured in dwelling units per acre
(du/ac). Residential density is
calculated by dividing the number of
dwelling units on the site (excluding
accessory dwelling units) by the net
acreage (e.g., removing roadways and
easements) of the site. The image to
the right shows prototypical examples
of different residential densities for
one-acre properties.
State planning law requires general
plans to include standards for measuring population density. Population density is determined by multiplying the maximum number of dwelling units allowed in a given land use designation by the average number of persons per household (as determined by the California Department of Finance).
Floor Area Ratio
The intensity of non-residential
development, which can be regulated by
total building size and lot coverage, is
measured by Floor Area Ratio (FAR). FAR
means the gross floor area of a building or
buildings on a parcel divided by the area of
the parcel. The maximum FAR standard
limits the overall size of development on a
parcel. As an example, a maximum FAR of
0.75 would allow 75,000 square feet of
building floor area on a 100,000-square foot
lot. The 75,000 square feet could be
developed in one building, or more
buildings, and include one or more stories.
Land Use Diagram
Figure LU-1 shows the Pleasant Hill General
Plan Land Use Diagram. The Land Use Diagram designates land uses for the entire Planning Area. State planning law requires that a general plan cover all territory within the boundaries of the adopting city or county as well as “any land outside its boundary which in the planning agency’s judgment bears relation to its planning” (Government Code Section 65300).

Focus Area 1 | Diablo Valley College
Diablo Valley College (“DVC”) is a highly successful regional community college located west of Contra Costa Boulevard along Golf Club Road. DVC is located on the northern portion of Pleasant Hill near the City of Concord and is surrounded by varying types of residential homes as well as regional commercial centers. DVC has long been a catalyst for future growth and development and during the 2040 General Plan process was recognized as a potential focal point for future residential and commercial development.
In an effort to further integrate DVC as an integral part of Pleasant Hill, the General Plan highlights several areas in and around the college for potential land use changes. One area of interest and potential is the 11-acre surface overflow parking lot across Golf Club Road from the main college campus. The large surface parking lot provides parking for students and faculty during the daytime hours but is largely vacant during the evening and weekends. The 2040 General Plan envisions a portion of the parking lot being transformed into a thriving mixed-use development providing additional retail and commercial opportunities for the residents of Pleasant Hill, as well as DVC students.
Expanded multi-family housing onsite can provide additional housing opportunities not only for students and faculty, but for the community at large. The mixed-use area can further connect to nearby regional retail centers such as Diablo Valley Plaza. In an effort to expand overall connectivity citywide, this area has the potential for creek restoration and expanded access to the natural waterway through multi-use trails. In order for this vision to become reality, the City would need to coordinate and collaborate further with DVC to realize any potential changes to campus properties. All new development within the Diablo Valley College focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.1 DVC Coordination
Coordinate with DVC on future development efforts to ensure consistency between the City’s and DVC’s goals and actions.
LU-6.2 Encourage the creation of a DVC District
Encourage development of a vibrant, walkable district centered around DVC and Golf Club Road that includes student and faculty housing, retail, and daily service uses for students, faculty, and staff.
LU-6.3 Creek Access from Businesses
Encourage businesses to provide secondary access to Grayson Creek and future multiuse trails..
LU-6.4 Enhanced Connectivity
Support the expansion of alternative transportation options including enhancements to the multi-use trail, expanded bike lanes along Golf Club Road, and additional connections between new and existing development.
LU-6.5 Structured Parking
Encourage new DVC development to provide structured parking in lieu of surface parking to provide opportunity for common open space and development of underutilized sites.

Focus Area 2 | Mangini-Delu
Mangini-Delu is one of the largest underutilized sites left within Pleasant Hill. The Mangini-Delu property is located in the far western portion of the city at the intersection of Taylor Boulevard and Pleasant Hill Road. Located adjacent to the property and directly at the intersection is the Winslow Center, which is owned by the Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District. The Mangini-Delu property has a rich history within the city. The property is currently open space and used to be an active farm. The property is presently designated for Single-Family Medium Density residential development, with a corresponding R-10 zoning designation. Over the years there have been several proposals for future development of the site. Those proposals have been met with community concerns about converting the farm to residential development. The 2040 General Plan assumes the Mangini-Delu property will be developed and includes land use changes that meet the needs of the property owners and community.
The 2040 General Plan envisions the Mangini—Delu property being developed into a vibrant neighborhood driven by a Master Plan process that allows the community to weigh in on important factors for the site’s development. The master planned development at a minimum will address open space preservation, recognize creek restoration, and focus on the transition between new and existing development.

Focus Area 3 | Downtown Pleasant Hill
Downtown Pleasant Hill is the heart of the community. Located off Contra Costa Boulevard along Crescent Drive, Downtown is a thriving mixed-use environment, which is home to bustling restaurants, entertainment venues, commercial spaces, and retail shops. Downtown is surrounded by successful retail centers, as well as the City Hall complex and Pleasant Hill Park located directly west of Crescent Drive. Downtown is designated Mixed-Use, but is primarily retail, commercial, and office uses.
The 2040 General Plan envisions building upon the successes of Downtown Pleasant Hill and elevating the area further by incentivizing and promoting vertical mixed-use development, specifically along Crescent Drive. An increase of residential uses Downtown will further energize the area, bringing additional foot traffic and bolstering the nightlife and success of existing businesses. In an effort to enhance connectivity between mixed-use and commercial centers, the area is envisioned to expand upon pedestrian connections with additional paseos and wider sidewalks creating a more walkable and pedestrian-friendly environment. In an effort to build upon the civic pride within Pleasant Hill, the General Plan envisions an expansion of civic uses in addition to City Hall which could include public art, community gathering spaces, and a city arts/performing arts venue. Policies for Downtown encourage the expansion of amenities, entertainment options, and retail and commercial establishments for residents and visitors alike to enjoy. All new development in the Downtown Pleasant Hill focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.

Focus Area 4 | Hookston Industrial Area
The Hookston Industrial Area is located on the far southeastern edge of Pleasant Hill. This area includes the only industrial land in the city and is currently surrounded by residential development. It has been recognized throughout the General Plan process as an important area that should be preserved for non-retail, service, and manufacturing jobs.
The 2040 General Plan envisions expanding on the diversity of uses, allowing the area to flourish and cater to workers in the vicinity. Preserving industrial development opportunities is key to the success of this area while recognizing the shift in urban industrial development. Allowing research and development, incubator businesses, start-up tech, and bio-tech will attract new and innovative employers to Pleasant Hill. In addition, this area will provide a greater emphasis on local workers by expanding flexible uses that are accessory to the primary industrial use. To further bolster the success of the Hookston Industrial area, the General Plan envisions an expansion of existing infrastructure, such as fiber optic cable, to provide ample opportunities for future businesses to thrive.

Focus Area 5 | Contra Costa Boulevard
The Contra Costa Boulevard area is located in central Pleasant Hill, serving as one of the primary roadway arterials in the City running parallel to Interstate 680. This area includes a mix of single-family residential, office, space, mixed-use development, and both strip and regional commercial. This area like other focus areas in the city faces challenges from compatibility of uses, specifically the existing single-family residential uses that are adjacent to the boulevard.
The 2040 General Plan envisions transforming Contra Costa Boulevard into a contemporary transitoriented corridor focused on multi-modal opportunities and denser development. In an effort to reduce incompatibility between development types, all single-family residential areas in this focus area will be re-designated to Mixed-Use to create consistency of development patterns. This shift in the fabric of Pleasant Hill from single-family to mixed-use will take decades to come to fruition and will require significant parcel consolidation.
The goal of transforming Contra Costa Boulevard is to create a lively, active environment, that is uniquely Pleasant Hill. The intent is to ensure high-quality projects and urban design characteristics as well as the integration of expanded pedestrian and bicycle facilities. To further create an energized corridor, the General Plan envisions the expanded allowance of creative outdoor spaces for the public as part of private developments. Additional opportunities for streetscape enhancements, outdoor dining, paseos connecting developments, and community gathering spaces will create a new and innovative neighborhood for the City. All new development proposed within the Contra Costa Boulevard focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.25 Transit-Oriented Development
Encourage the design and development of transit-oriented developments along Contra Costa Boulevard to support future transportation system enhancements.
LU-6.26 Strip Commercial
Support compact commercial development by discouraging new “strip” center development patterns along Contra Costa Boulevard. Strip centers are characterized by low-density commercial frontage with parking in front of the building and multiple access driveways.
LU-6.27 Pedestrian Oriented Development
Support the transformation of existing auto-oriented and strip commercial uses into attractive pedestrian-oriented developments that enhance the visual character and interest of the boulevard.
LU-6.28 Parcel Consolidation
Support parcel consolidation in the East Vivian Neighborhood to stimulate future mixed-use development.
LU-6.29 Limit Driveways and Curb Cuts
Support limiting new driveways and curb cuts and encourage consolidating existing driveways and curb cuts as Contra Costa Boulevard redevelops.

LU-6.32 Commercial Use Design
Support the design of commercial uses on Contra Costa Boulevard that relate to, and reflect uses adjacent to and behind, those uses, with careful attention to design themes common to specific blocks along the boulevard.
LU-6.33 Mixed-Use Compatibility
Ensure that development of the mixed-use parcels on the west side of Contra Costa Boulevard considers the interface with the lower-density parcels to the west of Shirley Drive. The mixed-use area shall be connected to- not walled off from -, the lowerdensity residential area, but designed in a way that reduces conflict and promotes compatibility between uses.

Focus Area 6 | Gregory Lane
The Gregory Lane area is located in central Pleasant Hill, connecting Contra Costa Boulevard and Pleasant Hill Road. This area includes a diverse mix of uses from institutional, office, neighborhood business, multi-family, and single-family residential. Gregory Lane is heavily traveled connecting Downtown and Interstate 680, to City Hall, and the more traditional single-family residential areas of the City. Accordingly, in 2020, the City made upgrades to the roadway to slow traffic and implement additional safety measures to ensure a safer environment for all types of travelers. Similar to Contra Costa Boulevard, single-family residential uses abut and take access directly from Gregory Lane leading to incompatibility pressures and conflicts along the heavily travelled roadway.
The 2040 General Plan envisions transforming Gregory Lane into a neighborhood mixed-use corridor anchored by higher intensity development at the intersection of Pleasant Hill Road to the west and Downtown/Contra Costa Boulevard to the east. In an effort to reduce incompatibility between development types, all single-family residential areas in this focus area will be reassigned with the lower intensity Neighborhood Mixed-Use land use designation to create consistency between development patterns. This shift in the fabric of Pleasant Hill from single-family to mixed-use will take decades to come to fruition and will require significant parcel consolidation. All new development proposed within the Gregory Lane focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.34 Transform Gregory Lane
Support the transformation of Gregory Lane into an attractive streetscape that includes neighborhood-serving mixed-use developments with active frontages facing the street, wider sidewalks, expanded bicycle lanes, and consistent landscaping.
LU-6.35 Parcel Consolidation

Focus Area 7 | Taylor Boulevard
The Taylor Boulevard area is solely focused on the arterial roadway that connects the city of Concord at intersection of Contra Costa Boulevard and Sun Valley Boulevard to the city of Lafayette. Taylor Boulevard is a heavily used corridor that parallels the far western city limits of Pleasant Hill. Taylor Boulevard experiences cut-through traffic by commuters avoiding Contra Costa Boulevard and Interstate 680 during peak AM/PM travel periods. Over the years this has led to safety concerns not only for motorists but also pedestrians and bicyclists.
The 2040 General Plan does not envision any land use changes for this area. The intent for this focus area is to evaluate increased safety measures and traffic calming approaches to create a safer roadway for all users, while maintaining the existing roadway lane capacity. This can include the addition of separated bicycle lanes, reduction in speed limits, and limited enhanced pedestrian crossings at existing intersections. All future development or infrastructure upgrades proposed within the Taylor Boulevard focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.40 Safety Enhancements
Promote Taylor Boulevard safety enhancements for pedestrians and cyclists to lessen and mitigate potential vehicular collisions.

Focus Area 8 | Oak Park Boulevard
The Oak Park Boulevard area is located in southern Pleasant Hill adjacent to the city of Walnut Creek.
This area is primarily single-family density residential and commercial businesses. This area is currently anchored with several shopping centers and developments at the intersection of Oak Park Boulevard and Patterson Boulevard and by the Pleasant Hill Library. Similar to Gregory Lane, Oak Park Boulevard is heavily traveled and tends to funnel traffic further into residential areas of the City.
The 2040 General Plan envisions Oak Park Boulevard becoming a purely neighborhood mixed-use focused neighborhood. This shift will allow for an expansion of allowable uses, including multi-family residential throughout the focus area. The intent of these land use changes is to also further the success of the existing retail and commercial centers by incentivizing future development that will better serve the residents of the city. In an effort to reduce incompatibility between development types, all single-family residential areas in this focus area will be reassigned the lower intensity Neighborhood Mixed-Use land use designation to create consistency between development patterns. This shift in the fabric of Pleasant Hill from single-family to mixed-use will take decades to come to fruition and will require significant parcel consolidation. All new development proposed within the Oak Park Boulevard focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.42 Neighborhood-Serving Mixed-Use
Encourage the development of Oak Park Boulevard to attract low-intensity neighborhood-serving mixed-use development.

This focus area has one of the most congested intersections in the city that over the years has had several incidents that have raised safety concerns amongst community members. The focus area is surrounded by predominately single-family residential uses as well as Fair Oaks Elementary School to the south.
The 2040 General Plan envisions a revitalized Monument Boulevard focused on higher density development and an improved circulation and traffic network. This area will provide expanded retail and housing opportunities for the community while preserving the mobile home park on the northeast segment of the focus area. The expansion of mixed-use development in this area will create a unique village node for local residents to socialize and shop. All new development proposed within the Monument Boulevard focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.
LU-6.48 Pedestrian Connectivity
Require Monument Boulevard pedestrian upgrades including signalized crossings, bulb outs, and expanded sidewalks.

Focus Area 10 | Ellinwood Way
The Ellinwood Way area is located in eastern Pleasant Hill, adjacent to Interstate 680. This area is exclusively office-oriented development, adjacent to multi-family residential and a number of hotels catering to business travelers. Compared to other areas in the city, the Ellinwood Way area is quite dense and currently has the infrastructure in place to support additional development.
The 2040 General Plan envisions transforming the underutilized office properties along Ellinwood Way to Mixed-Use Very-High Density. This conversion of land use would greatly expand the overall housing capacity in the city and allow for large-scale developments. The intent is to provide expanded housing opportunities for all Pleasant Hill residents while creating unique developments that further define Pleasant Hill as a standout community in the Bay Area. All new development proposed within the Ellinwood Way focus area is subject to the policies in this section, as well as other relevant sections of the General Plan.

Redlining andSingle-Family Zoning
Although recognized as one of the most diverse regions in the United States, the Bay Area’s demographics often reflect the legacy of redlining and restrictive covenants that shaped many U.S. cities’ development in the 20th century. Redlining, defined as the practice of singling out neighborhoods often inhabited by BIPOC individuals and families and preventing access to home mortgages, has influenced the racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic composition of the region’s communities.
To further enforce the prohibition of non-white individuals, developers turned to racial covenants, which prohibited “no person of any race other than the Caucasian or white race” from using or occupying residential properties in the titles of properties. Although no longer enforceable, the language used in these racial covenants remains today, with residents across the Bay Area surprised to find these provisions in titles for their homes. In July 2022, Contra Costa County released an implementation plan to respond to AB 1466, which calls for the removal of “unlawfully restrictive language” that was put into titles and other official documents.

Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 5-1
Pleasant Hill’s transportation network and services provide mobility for residents, employees, and visitors, and serve goods movement throughout the city. It is easy to think of transportation as primarily the roadway network, serving automobiles; but this network also serves other modes of transportation including walking, bicycling, and transit to and from the Pleasant Hill and surrounding BART stations, as well as relatively travel modes offered by Transportation Network Companies (TNCs). Pleasant Hill is also fortunate to encompass the Contra Costa Canal Trail, with connections to the Iron Horse Trail, allowing walking and biking trips to be made off-road with fewer vehicle interactions.
The five main tenets of the City’s transportation and circulation policy framework are listed below. All policy statements and programs support this framework.

Key Terms
Arterial. A major roadway carrying the traffic of local and collector streets to and from freeways and other major streets, with controlled intersections and generally providing direct access to properties.
Collector. A roadway for traffic moving between arterial and local streets, generally providing direct access to properties.
Freeway. A highway serving high-speed traffic with no crossings interrupting the flow of traffic (i.e., no crossings at grade).
Local Street. A roadway providing direct access to properties and designed to discourage through traffic.
Complete Streets. A transportation policy and design approach that requires streets to be planned, designed, operated, and maintained to enable safe and convenient access for all users regardless of their mode of transportation (such as bicycling and walking), age, and ability.
Level of Service (LOS). A qualitative measure used to rate a roadway segment’s traffic flow characteristics. LOS acts as an indicator of roadway performance relative to locally established standards for quality of service based on measures of speed, density, and congestion that are designated using letters from “A” (good) to “F” (poor). LOS can assist in determining when roadway capacity improvements are needed.
Multimodal. Transportation planning that considers various modes (such as automobile, bicycle, pedestrian, public transit) of travel and the connections between these modes.
Multiple Use Trails. Trails designed to facilitate multiple modes of use such as pedestrians, bicyclists, equestrians, and so forth.
Routes of Regional Significance. Roadways that carry significant through-traffic, connect two or more jurisdictions, serve major transportation hubs, or cross county lines. These routes are designated by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority and the Regional Transportation Planning Committees; Pleasant Hill is included within the TRANSPAC RTPC.
Transportation Demand Management (TDM). Strategies used to reduce vehicle travel, with an emphasis on reducing travel during peak periods. TDM is intended to incentivize developers and motorists to use alternative transportation modes or alter commute patterns to help reduce congestion and improve traffic flow without having to increase roadway capacity.
Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). The total amount of vehicular miles traveled by the service population of a specific site or area. VMT is used to analyze potential air quality and greenhouse gas impacts.
VMT is also the required metric used for the evaluation of environmental impacts as required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Circulation Issues
Peak commute congestion is not unique to Pleasant Hill and has become a regular occurrence throughout the Bay Area. Sections of arterials like Contra Costa Boulevard and Taylor Boulevard, and I680 interchange areas, operate near capacity during the AM and PM peak commute periods. In most cases adding lanes is not feasible and would most likely not resolve congestion over the long term. A potential solution to peak commute congestion is to look at operational efficiency improvements and other innovations to manage congestion and match travel demand to available capacity. Some of Pleasant Hill’s arterials serve traffic cutting through the city. Many of these trips are appropriately using the city’s roadways, which connect to neighboring communities including Martinez, Lafayette, Concord, and Walnut Creek, while others cut through to avoid congestion on I-680. The challenge for Pleasant Hill is to maintain an efficiently-operating roadway network and discourage diverted regional traffic from the freeway.
Most school areas experience congestion around AM/PM drop-off and pick-up. Congestion is worsened when access routes and driveways onto school properties are limited. Schools with attendance areas extending beyond the Pleasant Hill city limits draw students from these areas, and results in long trip lengths, higher traffic volumes, and impacting many City streets. Steps that can reduce congestion include establishing school bus service, improving access to public transit for secondary and higher-education students, encouraging walking and bicycling through the establishment of safe routes to school (SR2S) programs and initiatives, better drop-off/pick-up circulation, and other tailored school site measures that target individual site opportunities for reducing vehicular traffic. In addition, private schools operating within the City can exacerbate traffic congestion as their student populations reside outside of the City limits. Requiring robust Transportation Demand Management (TDM) on private school operators can help to reduce congestion on City streets through programs such as private shuttle bus operations and carpool programs.
Many residential and collector streets have discontinuous sidewalks, making it difficult to safely walk from point A to point B. As adjacent parcels develop or redevelop, the City typically requires sidewalk improvements. However, where redevelopment is unlikely in the near-term, a prioritized plan for addressing these gaps in the network is needed.
Trends and shifts in lifestyle and other factors have affected travel demand, mode choices, peak periods of use, and circulation patterns. These factors include:
Remote work schedule
Widespread use of virtual meeting platforms
Online shopping
Online food ordering
Travel restrictions
Migration to suburban areas (lower population density)

Support land use patterns that make more efficient use of the transportation system, such as locating development near transit routes and high-quality bicycle/pedestrian facilities, minimizing new driveways, consolidating parking, and other best practice urban design measures.
Multimodal Transportation System
A true multimodal transportation system accommodates all modes of travel, including alternatives to driving. A holistic approach provides a system of local streets that meet the needs of all transportation system users (e.g., cyclists, pedestrians, motorists, transit riders). Driving alone increases congestion on the roadway system and increases the generation of vehicle-miles traveled per capita. It is important to provide Pleasant Hill residents, workers, and visitors with the full range of travel mode options so that those who want to travel by alternative modes can do so.
Mobility options are expanding due to technological innovations and increasing interest in alternatives to private auto ownership, the health benefits of active transportation modes, and combatting climate change. Transportation network companies (TNCs) are providing mobility as a service, and while the TNC business model will likely change over time, these services have become part of the transportation decision-making process for travelers. New self-owned and shared forms of “micro-mobility” like electric scooters (e-scooters) and electric bikes (e-bikes) have expanded rapidly in major cities across Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
5-12 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
the United States and may act as a catalyst for encouraging more active transportation use and divert some short distance trips from low occupancy automobile use.
The prospect of autonomous vehicles (AVs) may result in a transportation future where many citizens might not own a vehicle, but still ride in an automobile.

Complete Streets
Complete streets are streets designed to enable convenient, safe access for everyone, accommodating a broad range of transportation modes. This includes pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and transit riders of all ages and abilities.
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
5-14 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
The California Complete Streets Act of 2008 (Assembly Bill 1358), as well as recent changes in California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and congestion management law, highlight a need for mobility elements to have a broader focus that emphasize other travel modes beyond driving. It requires jurisdictions to provide local streets with facilities that meet the needs of all transportation system users (e.g., cyclists, pedestrians, motorists, transit riders) when updating their general plans.
Complete streets should be part of a comprehensive, integrated, and connected transportation network. Complete streets should include a balanced design that accommodates all modes of transportation, varied uses and activities, and diverse, context-sensitive streetscape elements.
Pedestrian and bicycle facilities should be safe, efficient, and well-maintained.
The following goals and policies address complete streets in Pleasant Hill.
Encourage the development of a comprehensive and integrated transportation network with infrastructure and design features that allow safe and convenient travel along and across streets for all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, persons with disabilities, motorists, movers of commercial goods, users and operators of public transportation, seniors, youth, and families.
TC-8.1 Complete Streets Principles
Apply complete streets principles when building new, or rehabilitating existing, roadways, consider the following design elements:
Sidewalks and curbs as a standard design principle.
Bicycle lanes and/or shared lanes as a standard design principle. Transit accessibility as a standard design principle. Shade trees and planting strips as a standard design principle along roadways.
TC-8.2 Review for Complete Streets

TC-8.10 Visually Appealing Medians and Street Edges
Provide enhanced landscape medians and street edges that are visually appealing and provide shade and buffers for pedestrians and cyclists.
TC-8.11 Traffic Safety Corridors
Identify Traffic Safety Corridors along Suggested Routes to School and protected residential neighborhoods, as allowed through California Assembly Bill 43 – Traffic Safety to establish lower speed streets to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety.
Pedestrian Facilities
The City’s pedestrian facilities consist of sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals, curb ramps and pedestrian-scale street lighting, as well as the Contra Costa Canal Trail which runs north-south through the city and connects to the Iron Horse Trail, and several other shorter off-road pathways. The Contra Costa Canal Trail and Iron Horse Regional Trail help provide access to commercial and residential areas, schools, public transportation, and other community facilities throughout Pleasant Hill and its surrounding communities.
While sidewalks are provided on many city streets, some streets have gaps in the sidewalk network. In addition, walking can be uncomfortable on higher-traffic, higher-speed streets such as Contra Costa Boulevard, Taylor Boulevard, Gregory Lane, and others. Such streets form an effective obstacle for pedestrians needing to cross the street, as does Interstate 680. These barriers can discourage walking as a means to get to work, school, shopping, and recreational destinations.
The following goals and policies address pedestrian facilities and needs in Pleasant Hill. See also goals TC-11 and 12 and their supporting policies, which address pedestrian concerns along with bicyclist’s concerns.

Transit Services
Pleasant Hill’s central location within the East Bay provides access to surrounding cities and communities, as well as to other parts of the San Francisco Bay Area. While the suburban setting lends itself to vehicular use as a preferred mode of travel, many trips can be made by public transit. The city’s transit services are described below.
BART
The Pleasant Hill BART station is located just southeast of the city limits in the unincorporated County, at Contra Costa Centre. The station provides connections for all modes of travel and serves as a transit village for local and regional transit services. The BART Yellow Line serves travel between Pittsburg/Antioch and San Francisco, including the San Francisco International Airport (as shown in Figure TC-4). Via connections in Oakland, riders can travel to Richmond, Milpitas, and Dublin/Pleasanton. Contra Costa Centre is also home to several regional and local bus routes with service to San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Fairfield, Vallejo, and Pleasanton/Dublin. In addition to the Contra Costa County Transit Authority’s County Connection routes, described below, regional connections are provided by Fairfield and Suisun Transit, Solano Express, and Wheels Express.
County Connection
County Connection routes traverse the city, providing access to Diablo Valley College, Pleasant Hill BART, Downtown Pleasant Hill (as shown in Figure TC-5), the Martinez Amtrak Station, and other key destinations (refer to Figure TC-3).

Storm Drainage and Flood Protection
Stormwater drainage and management is essential for controlling water runoff and discharge of pollutants into waterways. The City of Pleasant Hill is one of 76 local government entities subject to the requirements of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for the San Francisco Bay Region (RWQCB’s) Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP). The MRP mandates implementation of a comprehensive program of stormwater control measures and actions designed to limit contributions of urban runoff pollutants to San Francisco Bay. Low Impact Development (LID) practices are currently implemented on land development projects in the city of Pleasant Hill, the specific methods and design criteria for which can be found referenced in Chapter 15.05 of the Pleasant Hill Municipal Code, Stormwater Management and Discharge Control. [Source: New Text]According to the 2019 Green Infrastructure Plan, the City aims to shift its practices from conventional “collect and convey” storm drainage infrastructure to more resilient, sustainable stormwater management systems that reduce runoff volumes, disperse runoff to vegetated areas, harvest and use runoff where feasible, promote infiltration and evapotranspiration, and use natural processes to detain and treat runoff. A major challenge in creating this shift, however, is that storm drainage channels are largely on private property.
Property owners have been reluctant to provide drainage easement, limiting the ability to include green infrastructure planning for those areas.
The City also operates a Clean Water Program. It exists to comply with State and Federal Clean Water regulations governing “non-point source” pollution and serves to implement the Pleasant Hill-specific components of the Contra Costa Clean Water Program, as well as NPDES permit activities. This program is funded through revenue generated through Stormwater Utility Area fees.
The Contra Costa Flood Control and Water Conservation District covers all of Contra Costa County, including its cities, and owns property throughout the county for the purpose of constructing and maintaining regional flood control basins, channels, and creeks. The District offers regional flood protection, and also provides technical information and education to cities and residents. Its operations are primarily funded through property taxes and developer fees. The Flood Control District works to
6. Public Facilities, Services, and Infrastructure Element Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 6-5
reduce flood risk, promote stormwater quality and restore and enhance natural resource in an environmentally sensitive manner for the communities throughout Contra Costa County.
Flooding is a significant threat to Pleasant Hill, and there is a long history of major flooding incidents.
The principal flood problems as described in the 2017 Countywide Flood Insurance Study conclude that the flooding in Pleasant Hill has been caused by local runoff that exceeded stream channel capacities and has been greatly aggravated by blocked drainage facilities. The City has adopted Chapter 15.15 (Flood Damage Protection) of the Municipal Code which discusses development permits, standards of construction, standards for utilities, and allowed uses within designated floodplains.
L NOTE: Goals and policies pertaining to flooding and development impacts in designated flood plains are covered in the Hazards and Safety Element.
Provide a resilient, sustainable stormwater management system that reduces runoff volume and minimizes flood potential from existing and future development.
PFS-3.1 NPDES Permit Activities
Implement NPDES permit activities in compliance with State and Federal law to prevent stormwater pollution.
PFS-3.2 Drainage Facility Maintenance
Collaborate with property owners and the Flood Control District to regularly maintain and provide funding for all drainage facilities to ensure that they continue operating at full carrying capacity.
PFS-3.3 Green Infrastructure
Require new developments to install green infrastructure as required by the permit conditions of the Regional Water Quality Control Board, as part of their natural stormwater drainage systems, including but not limited to pervious pavement, infiltration basins, raingardens, green roofs, rainwater harvesting systems, and other types of low impact development (LID).
PFS-3.4 Retrofit for Green Infrastructure
Encourage the retrofit of existing development to include sustainable infrastructure and green building practices.
L NOTE: Goals and policies pertaining to water resources including water supply, quality, and creek habitat are covered in the Environment Element.

Solid Waste Disposal and Recycling
Solid waste disposal and recycling services in Pleasant Hill are provided by a contract service provider.
This service provider offers solid waste, single-stream recycling, yard waste, organic waste, and bulk waste collection, as well as appliance recycling and commercial waste collection. State law requires commercial businesses and multifamily complexes to arrange for recycling services (AB 341). Per City ordinance, however, recycling service in Pleasant Hill is mandatory for commercial businesses and all residences. The City Solid Waste and Recycling Program and Solid Waste Ordinance provide programs and regulations that provide direction for solid waste and recycling diversion from the landfills, and recycling grants for used motor oil and beverage containers. The City also provides information on how to dispose of items that may require special procedures, including household hazardous waste, electronic waste, prescription medication, sharps (e.g., needles), and other miscellaneous recycling items (e.g., furniture).
Contra Costa County Central Sanitation District (Central San) teamed up with Mt. View Sanitary District (MVSD) in 1997 to build and operate the first permanent Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Facility in Contra Costa County. The HHW Collection Facility is located adjacent to Central San wastewater treatment plant in Martinez, west of Solano Way from Highway 4. Hazardous waste generated from households in the central Contra Costa County area is accepted at no charge upon drop-off. To keep hazardous waste disposal to a minimum, and to assure products are used up as they were intended, the HHW Collection Facility offers a Reuse Program that allows residents and businesses to take usable products, for example, paint, automotive products, and household cleaners at no charge.
L NOTE: Goals and policies pertaining to zero-waste and sustainability are covered in the Environment Element.

Libraries
Contra Costa County operates a Pleasant Hill Branch library in a partnership with the City of Pleasant Hill that provides for the facility and maintenance of the facility. Pleasant Hill (as the former central library) has historically had the highest “per hour” circulation of all Contra Costa library branches until the closure in 2020. Of the books checked out at the branch in fiscal year 2017-2018, nearly 40 percent were checked out by Pleasant Hill residents, with the remaining 60 percent checked out by nonPleasant Hill residents. The library collection includes* books, and audiovisual items, audiobooks, as well as computers with free Internet access and Wi-Fi throughout the facility. The library hosts a variety of community programs from storytimes for early learning, to creative workshops for makers of all ages.
In 2017, with newly acquired funding from Measure K, the Pleasant Hill City Council selected an architect to design and construct a new library to replace the old library built in 1961. Construction began in Fall of 2020 and completed in Summer of 2022. The new library expands services to the Pleasant Hill community with new amenities such as a Friends of the Library Bookstore, flexible story lab, an interactive maker space, an outdoor activity yard, and a covered outdoor reading terrace. *The Pleasant Hill Library collections represent one facet of the County's shared catalog of over 1 million items, with access to many more millions of free titles through interlibrary loan. Although the Pleasant Hill Library once held over 100,000 volumes in the pre-internet era, the rise of online research and eBooks has led to smaller, curated physical browsing collections over the decades. The new Pleasant Hill Library opened with nearly 60,000 brand new volumes in July 2022. In 2020/21, approximately 2/3 of all checkouts were digital downloads.

Areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas.
Water Resources
Water resources of the greatest interest in Pleasant Hill include water supply, water quality, groundwater recharge, and water recycling and conservation. An adequate and high-quality water supply is an essential need, and as such, the government regulates water supply, quality, and use.
Because water moves across jurisdictional boundaries above ground and through aquifers, much of the regulation occurs at the regional, State, and Federal levels. Nonetheless, cities have legal authority over development and land use, which means they need to consider the adequacy of water supplies relative to the effects of development on the quantity and quality of water available to the community and its biological resources.
The long-term adequacy of groundwater and surface water resources has become a major public concern in California. Issues include lowered groundwater levels, salt loading, water needs of wildlife, increased storm water runoff, sediment and pollutant loading in runoff, summer rationing in dry years, water use rates, conservation methods, water storage limitations, re-use of water, and continued changes in regulations.
Water Supply
Pleasant Hill water is supplied by four water districts: Contra Costa Water District, East Bay Municipal Utility District, Diablo Vista Water System, and the Martinez Water District. The primary water source is the Sacramento-San-Joaquin River Delta. The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (Central San) provides landscape irrigation water that meets the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water requirements for unrestricted landscape irrigation. Approved uses include irrigation at schools, parks, playgrounds, roadway median strips, and sports fields. Water from Central San can also be used for construction project dust control.

L NOTE: Goals and policies pertaining to water service and district suppliers are covered in the Public Facilities, Services, and Infrastructure Element.
Water Quality
Depending on the location of a city, water quality can potentially be affected by saltwater intrusion from sea level rise, and watershed runoff of contaminants such as those used in automotive and
8. Environment Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 8-5
manufacturing uses, dry cleaners, or other chemical and industrial processes. Pleasant Hill’s water quality is generally good with minimal exposure to contaminants, and consistently ranks high in annual water quality based on reporting from all four water districts.
A portion of eastern Pleasant Hill is in the FEMA 100-year flood plain hazard zone due to its proximity to Grayson Creek, which is subject to periodic flooding, in part because of debris. Sedimentation and debris in water sources like Grayson Creek can compromise water quality in the creek and the water bodies into which it flows.

Most land in the city and its sphere of influence is developed, limiting the amount of sensitive plant and animal habitat. Undeveloped hillsides and other open spaces in Pleasant Hill support pockets of grassland, oak woodland, and shrubland-chaparral habitat. The city also has a variety of plants and trees that provide additional cover and food for animals. This “urban habitat” includes residential and commercial landscaping and streetscape plantings. Rodents, small mammals, and birds use trees and vegetated areas for foraging and nesting. Some sensitive plant and animal species have been historically identified as having the potential to be present as well. These are provided in Table 6-1.
Grayson Creek, Murderers Creek (and several others see creek map) and the Contra Costa Canal form the major waterways in Pleasant Hill. Most of the wetlands in the city have been converted to urban use, and what remains are channelized streams. While the water ways include a portion that is paved and channelized, they still provide some habitat in the channel bottoms, where sediment collects and creates opportunities for plant and animal species to become established. Seasonally wet areas become evident during rainy periods and the creek corridors include limited wetlands and riparian vegetation that provide habitat for birds, amphibians, fish, and terrestrial species. The wetlands that remain in the city are important for recharge and filtering of water supplies.
Wildlife species listed as threatened or endangered in the surrounding area include the California redlegged frog and the Alameda whipsnake. Critical species in the San Joaquin Delta north of Pleasant Hill include the delta smelt and steelhead trout.

Historic and Cultural Resources
Contra Costa County and the greater San Francisco Bay Area have a long, rich history of human habitation, with the earliest known records dating from around 200 BC. In general, archaeological research has focused on the coastal San Francisco Bay Area, where large shell mounds were easily identified in the landscape. Native American occupation of the region included the areas of modern Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill. The larger Bay Area consisted of several independent tribal territories during prehistoric and early historic periods, including the Bay Miwok language speakers, who occupied the eastern parts of Contra Costa County, from Walnut Creek to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.
While the area offered resources that Native American groups could utilize for food and other uses, there are no known ethnographic settlements in the outlying margins of the San Francisco Bay Area that include Pleasant Hill. Lithic scatters, quarries, habitation sites, petroglyph sites, milling features, and isolated burial sites have been documented and have the potential to occur throughout the city and its sphere of influence, however. Archaeological sites with evidence of these cultures are still found in and around Pleasant Hill. State records list seven Native American archeological sites in Pleasant Hill.
Pleasant Hill has several historic homes and places, such as Rodgers Ranch and others listed below.
Rodgers Ranch Heritage Center
The Rodgers family moved to the area in 1868 and established a 149-acre ranch where they grew crops and were active members of their community. Over time, the ranch changed hands and reduced in size until the original buildings were transformed into a heritage park at the recommendation of the former Pleasant Hill Historical Society. Now, the Rodgers Ranch Heritage Center is just over two acres in size and includes the Rodgers’ farmhouse and an urban farm that serves as an education center, hosting workshops and events including farm-to-table culinary courses, master and organic gardening, and permaculture. The site is owned and managed by the Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District (Rec. & Park) and offers a summer day camp, hosts field trips and a harvest festival, and provides tours to the public.
Potential Historic Sites and Structures
A partial list of other buildings and structures of potential historic significance is depicted on Figure 8-1 and include the following:

ENV-5.3 Cultural Resources Treatment
Ensure that treatment of any cultural resources discovered during site grading complies with State guidelines.
ENV-5.4 Stop Work in the Event of Unanticipated Cultural Resources Discoveries During Construction
If cultural resources are encountered during ground-disturbing activities for a project, work in the immediate area shall be halted and an archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards for archaeology in either prehistoric or historic archaeology shall be contacted immediately to evaluate the find.
If necessary, the evaluation may require preparation of a treatment plan and archaeological testing for CRHR eligibility. If the discovery proves to be significant under CEQA and cannot be avoided by a project, additional work such as excavating the cultural deposit to fully characterize its extent, and collecting and curating artifacts may be warranted to mitigate any significant impacts to cultural resources. In the event that archaeological resources of Native American origin are identified during project construction, a qualified archaeologist will consult with the City to begin Native American consultation procedures.
ENV-5.5 Suspend Work around Tribal Cultural Resources Identified During Construction In the event that cultural resources of Native American origin are identified during construction of a project implemented under the 2040 General Plan, all earthdisturbing work in the vicinity of the find shall be temporarily suspended or redirected until an archaeologist has evaluated the nature and significance of the find as a cultural resource and an appropriate local Native American representative is consulted. If the City, in consultation with local Native Americans, determines that the resource is a tribal cultural resource and, thus, significant under CEQA, a mitigation plan shall be prepared and implemented in accordance with State guidelines and in consultation with local Native American group(s). The mitigation plan shall include avoidance of the resource or, if avoidance of the resource is infeasible, the plan shall outline the appropriate treatment of the resource in coordination with the appropriate local Native American tribal representative and, if applicable, a qualified archaeologist.
Examples of appropriate mitigation for tribal cultural resources include, but are not limited to, protecting the cultural character and integrity of the resource, protecting traditional use of the resource, protecting the confidentiality of the resource, or heritage recovery.
ENV-5.6 Protect Paleontological Resources

Air Quality
Air quality is both a local and regional issue and has an important influence on the health and quality of life in Pleasant Hill. Poor air quality contributes to higher rates of asthma, respiratory disease, and some types of cancer. Most air-borne emissions come from vehicles using I-680 and major roadways such as Contra Costa Boulevard. Because pollutants drift across city boundaries, traffic on other nearby freeways, major roadways, and the air traffic at Buchanan Field Airport also impact air quality in the city.
Pleasant Hill overall has good air quality that is generally better than statewide and nationwide averages. But, like most of California, Pleasant Hill experiences ozone pollution in the summer months and particulate matter pollution in the winter months. The ozone and particulate matter pollution can also be exacerbated by natural hazard events, such as smoke from wildland fires. Air quality monitoring for Pleasant Hill indicates that the overall ozone and particulate pollutants are relatively low compared to other areas in the state, with fewer than seven days a year from 2015 to 2017 exceeding national standards.
Meet or exceed State and Federal Air quality standards.
ENV-7.1 Air Quality Improvements
Promote actions that improve air quality and help meet air quality attainment standards.
ENV-7.2 Air Quality Strategies
Work with local and regional agencies to develop a consistent and effective approach to air quality planning and management that includes strategies to reduce vehicle trips, wood burning, and the burning of fossil fuels.
ENV-7.3 Fuel-efficient Vehicles
Require fuel efficiency and cleaner fuels for vehicles, including construction and maintenance equipment, by replacing the City vehicles and equipment with zeroemission vehicles and equipment and requesting that City contractors use reduced- or zero-emission fleets.
ENV-7.4 Landscape Equipment
Prohibit the use of gas-powered landscape equipment and publicize the benefits and importance of alternative technologies.
ENV-7.5 Sensitive Receptors
The City shall require that any new development considered a sensitive receptors (e.g., residential units, schools, medical facilities) proposed within 1,000 feet of I-680 or other major sources of toxic air contaminants prepare an operational health risk assessment. If TACs exposure at new sensitive receptor sites would exceed BAAQMD
8. Environment Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 8-15
health risk thresholds, the City shall require mechanical air filtration or other measures be included as part of the project in order to reduce health risk exposure to acceptable levels..
ENV-7.6 Best Management Construction Practices
Require new development to use best management constuction practices in accordance with BAAQMD standards.
ENV-7.7 Reduce Construction Criteria Pollutant Emissions Require projects that exceed the BAAQMD screening sizes to evaluate project- specific construction emissions in conformance with the BAAQMD methodology and if construction-related criteria air pollutants exceed the BAAQMD thresholds of significance, require the project applicant to mitigate the impacts to a less-thansignificant level.
ENV-7.8 Reduce Operational Criteria Pollutant Emissions Require projects that exceed the BAAQMD screening sizes to evaluate project- specific operation emissions in conformance with BAAQMD CEQA Guidelines, and if operationrelated air pollutants exceed the BAAQMD-adopted thresholds of significance, require the project applicant to mitigate the impact to a less-than-significant level.
ENV-7.9 Conduct and Implement Construction Health Risk Assessment For individual projects (excluding ADUs, single-family residences, and duplexes) where construction activities would occur within 1,000 feet of sensitive receptors, would last longer than two months, and would not utilize equipment rated US EPA Tier 4 for equipment of 50 horsepower or more, or construction equipment fitted with Level 3 Diesel Particulate Filters for all equipment of 50 horsepower or more, and/or alternative fuel construction equipment, the project applicant shall coordinate with the City to determine if a construction health risk assessment (HRA) shall be performed. If an HRA is to be performed, the HRA shall determine potential risk and compare the risk to the following BAAQMD thresholds:
Non-compliance with Qualified Community Risk Reduction Plan; Increased cancer risk of > 10.0 in a million;
Increased non-cancer risk of > 1.0 Hazard Index (Chronic or Acute); or Ambient PM2.5 increase of > 0.3 wg/m3 annual average
If risk exceeds the thresholds, measures such as requiring the use of Tier 4 engines, Level 3 Diesel Particulate Filters, and/or alternative fuel construction equipment shall be incorporated to reduce the risk to appropriate levels.

Sustainability
A healthy and sustainable environment is one of the most critical components to a healthy life, high quality of living, and the long-term maintenance of important natural resources. By efficiently managing natural resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), Pleasant Hill can address the effects of climate change and preserve the quality of life in our community.
This section focuses on community sustainability through goals and policies targeting energy conservation, green building, greenhouse gas reduction, and recycling and solid waste. These efforts will result in a cleaner, healthier, and more ecologically responsible Pleasant Hill.
8. Environment Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 8-17
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
California has become a recognized global leader in the effort to reduce GHG emissions through establishing wide-ranging GHG reduction strategies. The primary GHG reduction legislation driving State and city climate action plans includes Assembly Bill (AB) 32, Senate Bill (SB) 32, and Executive Order (EO) B-55-18. These laws and directives have charted a path towards carbon neutrality for California by 2045.
In addition to the landmark climate change bills, California has also passed legislation that increases energy efficiency in buildings (Title 24), improves fuel efficiency in vehicles (Advanced Clean Cars Program), and most recently legislation that calls for 100 percent carbon neutral electricity by 2045 (SB 100).
While the impacts of climate change are imposing and the use of fossil fuels that drive it pervasive, there are solutions. National, state, and local governments worldwide are making changes to reduce the impacts of climate change to a manageable level. What is more, places like California have been making substantial reductions in GHG emissions while continuing to grow its gross domestic product by decarbonizing the economy and investing in clean energy and next-generation technologies.
Generally, there are two primary types of strategies to address climate change: mitigation and adaptation. Mitigation strategies focus of slowing or halting future warming by reducing or capturing GHG emissions. Examples include planting trees to absorb carbon dioxide from the air, increasing fuel efficiency to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted per mile driven, and conserving electricity to lower GHG emissions associated with energy production. While mitigation strategies will curb some GHG emissions, these efforts are unlikely to halt climate change entirely. Adaptation strategies, which are discussed in the Safety Element of the General Plan, focus on actions to moderate the impacts of climate change. Examples of adaptation include use of drought-tolerant landscaping, reduced impermeable surfaces, and green building codes.
Energy Efficiency and Electrification
Increasing energy efficiency and the availability of renewable energy has great potential to contribute to GHG reduction and to preserve resources. The energy needed to light, heat, and power buildings is a stationary source of GHG emissions if produced using fossil fuels, the reduction of which is a key goal throughout the state. Energy use reductions can be achieved in a variety of ways, including optimizing energy efficiency in new construction, retrofitting existing buildings that facilitate energy use reduction; promoting energy and water conservation and efficiency; and encouraging the use of renewable energy. Energy audits for residential and commercial uses and developer and building contractor education on energy conservation and efficiency techniques are other approaches to energy conservation. As California moves toward a cleaner energy grid and greater energy efficiency, residents and businesses in Pleasant Hill can take advantage of numerous programs, incentives, and improvements that foster greater energy independence, lower energy costs, and greener and safer energy options.
Natural gas is a common source of energy in many buildings in Pleasant Hill, as it is in other cities and counties in California and across the country. Reducing and potentially eliminating the use of natural Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
8-18 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
gas in existing and future buildings is important to both meeting climate change goals and to creating safer cities and homes. Achieving greater electrification will also help communities reach the goal of carbon neutrality by 2045 set by Senate Bill 100. An all-electric building that uses 100 percent renewable energy has zero carbon emissions, which can go a long way toward helping Pleasant Hill, Contra Costa County, and California reach its energy and climate change goals.
The City of Pleasant Hill adopted the California Building Standards Code by reference in 2019, including sections that govern energy efficiency (Title 24, Part 6) and Green Building Standards (Title 24, Part 11), also known as CALGreen. Developed as part of a comprehensive effort to meet the AB 32 GHG reductions schedule (reducing GHGs to 1990 levels by 2020), CALGreen provides cost-effective approaches to reduce energy use and water consumption, encourage access to alternate transportation modes, and other measures that provide energy reduction benefits.
Solid Waste Reduction and Recycling
Some of the solid waste generated by residents and businesses in Pleasant Hill is diverted through recycling and reuse. The Solid Waste ordinance (Pleasant Hill Municipal Code Section 13.10 et seq.) regulates the way solid waste and recycling is managed in the city, including the services of franchise waste haulers. The Solid Waste and Recycling Plan includes strategies to divert from landfills and obtain grants that are used to encourage recycling of used motor oil and beverage containers. This Plan is a State requirement that indicates how the City will promote waste source reduction, recycling and composting, and environmentally safe transformation and disposal to help achieve the statewide goal of source-reduction, recycling, or composting of 75 percent of solid waste generated in California.
Become a low carbon community that strives to exceed State GHG reduction goals by 2040.
ENV-8.1 Meet State Emission Reduction Targets

J Construction Bird Surveys and
Implement Avoidance and Minimization
Measures
For construction activities initiated
during the bird nesting season
(February 1 – September 15)
involving removal of vegetation that
could potentially serve as habitat for
special-status bird species or other
nesting bird habitat, including
abandoned structures and other
man-made features, a preconstruction nesting bird survey shall be conducted no more than 14
days prior to initiation of ground
disturbance and vegetation removal
activities.
The nesting bird pre-construction
survey shall be conducted on foot
and shall include a buffer around the
construction site at a distance
determined by a qualified biologist.
The survey shall be conducted by a
biologist familiar with the
identification of avian species
known to occur in California Bay
Area communities (i.e., qualified
biologist). If nests are found, an
avoidance buffer shall be
determined by a qualified biologist
dependent upon the species, the
proposed work activity, and existing
disturbances associated with land
uses outside of the site. The buffer
shall be demarcated by the biologist
with bright orange construction
fencing, flagging, construction lathe,
or other means to demarcate the
boundary. All construction personnel
shall be notified as to the existence
of the buffer zone and to avoid

disturbing activities shall occur
within the buffer until the biologist
has confirmed that breeding/nesting
is completed, and the young have
fledged the nest. Encroachment into
the buffer shall occur only at the
discretion of the qualified biologist
on the basis that the encroachment
will not be detrimental to an active
nest. A report summarizing the preconstruction survey(s) shall be prepared by a qualified biologist and
shall be submitted to the City prior
to the commencement of
construction activities.
Future project site plans shall
include a statement acknowledging
compliance with the federal MBTA
and California Fish and Game Code
that includes avoidance of active
bird nests and identification of Best
Management Practices to avoid
impacts to active nests, including
checking for nests prior to
construction activities during
February 1 to September 15 and
what to do if an active nest is found
so that the nest is not inadvertently
impacted during grading or
construction activities.

K Pre-Construction Roosting Bats
Surveys and Implement Avoidance
Measures
Prior to the removal or alteration of
trees and structures that may serve as
roosting habitat for special-status bat
species, a qualified biologist shall
conduct a focused survey of all trees
and structures to be removed or
impacted by construction activities to
determine whether active roosts of
special-status bats are present on site.
Tree or structure removal shall be
planned for either the spring or the fall
and timed to ensure both suitable
conditions for the detection of bats and
adequate time for tree and/or structure
removal to occur during seasonal
periods of bat activity exclusive of the
breeding season, as described below.
Trees and/or structures containing
suitable potential bat roost habitat
features shall be clearly marked or
identified. If no bat roosts are found, the
results of the survey will be
documented and submitted to the City
within 30 days of the survey, after which
no further action will be required.
If day roosts are present, the biologist
shall prepare a site-specific roosting bat
protection plan to be implemented by
the contractor following the City’s
approval. The plan shall incorporate the
following guidance as appropriate:
When possible, removal of
trees/structures identified as
suitable roosting habitat shall be
conducted during seasonal periods
of bat activity, including the
following:

temperatures fall below 45
degrees Fahrenheit and/or more
than 0.5 inch of rainfall within 24
hours occurs.
Between March 1 and April 15, or
after evening temperatures rise
above 45 degrees Fahrenheit
and/or no more than 0.5 inch of
rainfall within 24 hours occurs.
If a tree /structure must be removed
during the breeding season and is
identified as potentially containing a
colonial maternity roost, then a
qualified biologist shall conduct
acoustic emergence surveys or
implement other appropriate
methods to further evaluate if the
roost is an active maternity roost.
Under the biologist’s guidance, the
contractor shall implement
measures that consist of (or
exceed) the following:
If it is determined that the roost is
not an active maternity roost,
then the roost may be removed in
accordance with the other
requirements of this measure.
If it is found that an active
maternity roost of a colonial
roosting species is present, the
roost shall not be disturbed
during the breeding season (April
15 to August 31).
Tree removal procedures shall be
implemented using a two-step tree
removal process. This method is
conducted over two consecutive
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document

days and works by creating noise
and vibration by cutting non-habitat
branches and limbs from habitat
trees using chainsaws only (no
excavators or other heavy
machinery) on day one. The noise
and vibration disturbance, together
with the visible alteration of the tree,
is very effective in causing bats that
emerge nightly to feed to not return
to the roost that night. The
remainder of the tree is removed on
day two.
Prior to the demolition of vacant
structures within the project site, a
qualified biologist shall conduct a
focused habitat assessment of all
structures to be demolished. The
habitat assessment shall be
conducted enough in advance to
ensure the commencement of
building demolition can be
scheduled during seasonal periods
of bat activity (see above), if
required. If no signs of day roosting
activity are observed, no further
actions will be required. If bats or
signs of day roosting by bats are
observed, a qualified biologist will
prepare specific recommendations
such as partial dismantling to cause
bats to abandon the roost, or
humane eviction, both to be
conducted during seasonal periods
of bat activity, if required.
If the qualified biologist determines
a roost is used by a large number of
bats (large hibernaculum), bat boxes
shall be installed near the project
site. The number of bat boxes
installed will depend on the size of

has become established, all
construction activities shall be
postponed within a 500-foot buffer

9 9. Hazards and Safety Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 9-1
The Hazards and Safety Element evaluates natural and urban safety hazards in Pleasant Hill and outlines goals, policies, and implementation programs to minimize risk to life and property. The primary natural hazard threats for Pleasant Hill are earthquakes, drought, localized flooding, wildland fires, and an increased number of high heat days. Many of the goals and policies in this element correspond to local and regional safety priorities such as those established in the Contra Costa County Hazard Mitigation Plan (CCCHMP), a multi-jurisdictional document that helps coordinate more than three dozen participating jurisdictions to reduce risk from the most prevalent natural disasters in the county.
Likewise, many of the goals and policies will correspond with City’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP).
Noise issues in Pleasant Hill are described in section 9.7, with descriptions of common sources of noise and goals and policies to mitigate noise for sensitive land uses such as residential, schools, and medical facilities. Hazardous materials sources are covered in section 9.8, with goals and policies to reduce the use and dangers associated with such substances.
The Hazards and Safety Element is divided into the following sections:

100-Year Flood Event. A flood event that would occur on average every 100 years, or that has a one percent chance of occurring in any given year.
500-Year Flood Event. A flood event that would occur on average every 500 years, or that has a 0.2 percent chance of occurring in any given year.
Ambient Noise Level. The composite of noise from all sources; the normal or existing level of environmental noise at a given location.
Decibel (dB). A physical unit commonly used to describe noise. It is a unit for describing the amplitude of sound as heard by the human ear.
Defensible Space. An area around a building in which vegetation, debris, and other types of combustible fuels have been treated, cleared, or reduced to slow the spread of fire to and from the building.
Earthquake Fault Zone. Areas around active faults where there is a complex system of primary and secondary faults. Because most faults are not a single, clean fracture in the crust, fault zones describe the area at risk of seismic activity beyond the fault itself.
Equivalent Noise Level (Leq). The average A-weighted noise level during the measurement period.
Fault. A fracture in the earth’s crust along which rocks on one side have moved relative to those on the other side. Most faults are the result of repeated displacements over a long period of time. A fault trace is the line of the earth’s surface defining the fault. An active fault is one that has ruptured in the past 11,000 years.
Fire Hazard Severity Zones. Areas identified by California Department of Forestry and Fire Prevention (CAL FIRE) that describe fire hazard severity. based on three factors: fuel, slope, and weather.
Hazardous Substances. Any biological agent and other disease-causing agent which, after release into the environment and upon exposure, ingestion, inhalation, or assimilation into any person, will or may reasonably be anticipated to cause death, disease, behavioral abnormalities, cancer, genetic mutation, physiological malfunctions, or physiological deformations in such persons or their offspring.
Hazardous Waste. Hazardous wastes, although included in the definition of hazardous materials and hazardous substances, are regulated separately under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). A waste is legally considered hazardous if it is classified as ignitable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic. Title 22, Section 66261.24 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) (i.e., 22 CCR 66261.24) defines characteristics of toxicity.
9. Hazards and Safety Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 9-3
Intrusive Noise. Noise that intrudes over and above the existing ambient noise at a given location. The relative intrusiveness of a sound depends upon its amplitude, duration, frequency, time of occurrence, and tonal or informational content.
Liquefaction. Liquefaction occurs when soil grains consolidate during groundshaking, pushing water towards the surface and causing a loss of strength in the soil. The soil surface may sink or spread laterally. The three conditions necessary for liquefaction to occur include: a high-water table; layers of loose sand; and moderate or greater earthquake groundshaking.
Runoff. Precipitation (rain or snowmelt) that is not used by plants, evaporated or infiltrated to soils, and flows across land surfaces to streams or other surface water bodies.
Seismic. Geologic movement or vibrations of the earth and its crust.
Soil Erosion. The removal of soil by water or wind.
Stormwater. Large surface water quantity resulting from heavy rain or snow falls.
Subsidence. The sinking of ground when subsurface pressure is reduced by the withdrawal of fluids (e.g. groundwater, natural gas, or oil).
Surface Rupture. Fault movement that breaks through to the surface.
Wastewater. Water (either treated or untreated) that has been affected by human use, including household, commercial, industrial, and agricultural activities.
Wildland. Land in an uncultivated natural state that is covered by vegetation.
Wildland Urban Interface. The line, area, or zone where structures and other human development meet or intermingle with undeveloped wildland or vegetation fuels.
Emergency Preparedness
All municipal governments are required to prepare for natural and human-caused disasters. The Contra Costa County Hazard Mitigation Plan (CCCHMP) for the county assesses Countywide risk for natural hazards and establishes mitigation measures, funding, and plan implementation actions for Pleasant Hill.
The City of Pleasant Hill adopted a Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) in March 2020, in cooperation with the Pleasant Hill Disaster Council and Contra Costa County Office of Emergency Services (OES), special districts and other partners in the City to ensure the most effective response to emergencies. The CEMP establishes emergency support by assigning tasks and establishing policies and procedures. It develops systems for coordinating the planning and response efforts of various emergency personnel and using the Incident Command System (ICS), Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS), and National Incident Management System (NIMS). The CEMP provides preparedness guidance, as well as specific guidance to those personnel activated in the event of an emergency, in order to save lives, enhance the health of citizens, and protect property and the environment.
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
9-4 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
Ensure the city is prepared for health, natural and human-caused hazards and can respond quickly and effectively.
HS-1.1 Emergency Preparedness Planning
Coordinate with regional agencies and incorporate emergency preparedness into all City emergency planning efforts, including preparation, communications, response, emergency equipment access, and evacuations.
HS-1.2 Hazards Education and Information
Provide hazard awareness information and education about potential health, natural, and human-caused hazards in Pleasant Hill and how to responsibly prepare for or mitigate them.
HS-1.3 Essential Facility Location
Prohibit siting of essential, public safety, or emergency service facilities, special occupancy structures, or hazardous materials storage facilities in areas subject to the following hazard areas, unless the structure is designed to adequately mitigate the hazard or if no other viable option for siting is available to serve the need identified:
500-year flood zones;
seismic hazard areas and fault zones;
areas subject to liquefaction, landslide, or seiche hazards; and very high fire severity zone.
HS-1.4 Neighborhood Planning Efforts
Encourage neighborhoods to create localized emergency action plans to further inform residents on how to prepare and respond to hazards.
HS-1.5 Social Unrest Planning
Institute planning efforts related to social unrest and civil disobedience.
Seismic Hazards
Seismic hazards are caused by the movement of the earth’s surface and include earthquakes, landslides, liquefaction, seiche, and erosion. The San Francisco Bay Area is one of the most active seismic regions in the United States, and Pleasant Hill is in an area of high seismic risk, as the city is near several high-risk faults. The Concord, Franklin, and Southhampton faults run directly through the city, and the Hayward, Calaveras, San Andreas, and Greenville faults are within 50 miles. Seismic activity on these faults can trigger other types of hazards, including:
x Surface rupture: The ground cracks due to an earthquake.
9. Hazards and Safety Element
Adopted May 2023 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan 9-5
x Ground shaking: The passage of seismic waves causes the ground to shake, damaging structures.
x Liquefaction: Loose soil loses strength and acts like a liquid during an earthquake, damaging structures built on it.
x Landslides: Earthquake shaking causes loose material to slide down a slope. x Subsidence: The ground surface drops rapidly due to an earthquake. x Seiche: A temporary disturbance or oscillation in the water level of a lake or partially enclosed body of water
Earthquake severity is measured by the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. The MMI measures ground shaking severity at a given site according to damage done to structures, changes in the earth surface, and personal accounts. Pleasant Hill is located entirely in an area expected to experience an intensity of VIII on the MMI scale if a serious earthquake occurs (Figure HS-1). This would likely result in considerable damage to typical buildings and slight damage to buildings designed to withstand severe ground shaking. Actual damage caused depends on the severity of the earthquake, the specific buildings and infrastructure involved, and other factors.
During an earthquake, Pleasant Hill is also susceptible to liquefaction, particularly on the eastern side of the city and along Grayson Creek (Figure HS-2). Liquefaction is the act of soil behaving like a liquid due to ground shaking from an earthquake. Pleasant Hill’s susceptibility to liquefaction is moderate to high throughout the city, particularly along creeks and streams. The highest probability of infrastructure damage is along the orange and red areas shown in Figure HS-2, which include the downtown area and Pleasant Hill Plaza.
Landslides may also occur during earthquakes, heavy rains events, or other ground disturbing activities such as hillside grading and development. The western side of Pleasant Hill has hillside areas at risk of landslides as shown in the CCC HMP.

Wildfire
While Pleasant Hill is not located directly in a high fire hazard severity zone, as identified by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE), high- or very-high fire hazard severity zones are located to the north, east, and south of the city. Pleasant Hill’s proximity to Briones Regional Park and other open, undeveloped land poses a threat of wildland fires spreading near and into the city limits where the park and open space abuts urban development to the southwest (Figure HS-3). Minor brush fires in the area are common during the fire season but historically have been extinguished before developed areas sustain much damage.
Fires that sweep through residential communities are often started by flying embers from larger fires burning nearby, rather than directly from the fire itself. Larger fires can still pose immediate and severe health concerns to Pleasant Hill residents through harmful air quality and smoke in addition to potential spread of fires into developed areas. Goals and policies related to maintaining high air quality and ensuring the health of residents during hazardous air quality events are in Section 8.3 of the Environment Element. Wildfire hazard for an area can be increased by several factors:
x Fuel: Fuel includes living or dead vegetation on the ground and above the ground in tree canopies. This can include grasses, leaves, and needles that burn rapidly, and tree branches, logs, and trunks that take longer to ignite. Dead or diseased trees are more likely to burn in a wildfire.
x Weather: Temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, cloud cover, and precipitation affect the ignition and spread of wildfire. Hot, dry conditions with strong, dry winds increase the chance of a fire igniting and spreading, and lightning can directly ignite a fire. x Terrain: Slope and elevation influence the amount of fuel present, potential barriers to wildfire spread such as highways and lakes, and the speed at which the fire can spread, since fire spreads more rapidly uphill.
Damage from wildfires can devastate communities, causing loss of homes, businesses, and critical facilities that serve and protect the community. In 2018, California reached a wildfire record of 1.9 million acres burned in one year. In 2020, more than 4 million acres had burned by September. Wildfire is a devastating disaster for communities across California and is predicted to worsen as climate change gradually increases the conditions conducive to more intense and frequent fires.

Structural engineering features incorporated into the design of a structure to reduce the risk of damage to the structure from post-fire slope instability shall be recommended by a qualified engineer and approved by the City prior to the building permit approval.
Drought
Drought occurs when precipitation is low or nonexistent due to unusual weather patterns, usually over the course of several years. Droughts can be short-term, lasting a few months, or long-term, lasting years. Because droughts are considered regional and long-term, localized weather patterns might bring short-term periods of rain that are insufficient to end the drought.
Much of California experiences drought periodically as part of its normal climate cycle. Contra Costa County historically has been impacted by four significant droughts between 1976 and 2016, most recently from 2012 to 2016, which included the three driest years statewide on record. The likelihood of drought occurring in the future is increasing as average temperatures for the region rise and average precipitation levels drop, both for Contra Costa County and for snowpack in the Sierra Mountains, from which the county receives most of its dry-season water supply as snowmelt.
Because of the nature of droughts, they cannot reasonably be avoided or mitigated. Strategies for adapting to drought, therefore, revolve around water conservation measures and mitigating the secondary effects of drought such as soil erosion, marine and riparian habitat impacts, and the increased risk of wildfire and flooding when heavy rain events do occur.
Minimize the effects of drought by creating an emphasis of routine water conservation.
HS-4.1 Municipal Water Conservation
Continue to identify opportunities to upgrade City facilities with water-conserving appliances and using reclaimed water for irrigation, landscaping, and other allowable uses.
HS-4.2 Residential Water Conservation
Implement and maintain cost-effective, citywide water conservation and efficiency programs for all customers through education, rebates, assistance programs, and building requirements.
HS-4.3 Water Conservation Measures
Reduce the amount of water used by development by requiring compliance with adopted water conservation measures.
Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
9-14 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
Flooding
Flooding occurs when the water level in a body of water such as a lake or creek rises higher than the banks, causing it to overflow into nearby areas. Localized flooding can also occur in storm events, when the amount of precipitation overburdens and backs up stormwater systems or debris clogs drains, causing water to pool and flood streets or properties.
The frequency and severity of flooding from bodies of water are measured using the probability of a flood occurring in a given year. A 100-year flood plain therefore has a one percent chance of occurring in any given year, while a 500-year flood plain has a 0.2 percent chance of flooding in any given year.
FEMA maps and defines 100-year and 500-year flood plains.
Precipitation in the Pleasant Hill area is expected to increase in the future due to climate change, with an estimated increase of 6.7 to 8.2 inches of rain annually by 2045. This increase in rain will inevitably result in additional stress on the stormwater system and flooding. Pleasant Hill is primarily susceptible to flooding on the eastern border of the city, as shown on Figure HS-4, although localized flooding may occur in other areas due to geography or inadequate stormwater infrastructure. The 500-year floodplain extends the length of Grayson Creek from the northeastern edge of the city to the southeastern city limits. The northeastern city limits are also designated as a 100-year floodplain, with a small area in the 500-year floodplain just outside of the city limits. As of 2018, approximately six percent of Pleasant Hill’s population lived in the 100-year flood plain and 16 percent live in the 500-year flood plain. These areas are at greater risk from extreme floods in severe storms where Grayson Creek or Walnut Creek overflow. Figure HS-4 shows flood hazard zones in Pleasant Hill.

Airport-Related Hazards
Airport-related hazards are the risks to physical safety of people and property near an airport from aircraft accidents. While extremely rare, addressing these risks in land use planning ensures that nearby communities are developed in a way that is safe and compatible with local airports.
Buchanan Field Airport is just outside the northeast corner of the Pleasant Hill city limits (see Figure HS-5) and has a recently renovated runway, aviation services and facilities, emergency response services, access to Bay Area transportation and business centers, and related transportation amenities.
Annual airport operations in 2018 consisted of just over 112,000 flights, compared to a high of 353,926 in 1978. The 327 aircraft based at Buchanan Field in June 2020 included 14 jets, 6 helicopters, 32 multiengine, and 275 single-engine airplanes. The Buchanan Field Airport Master Plan was first adopted in 1990, last amended in 2008, and guides the operations, development, and safety planning of the airport influence area, which extends approximately 2.5 miles from the runways and includes most of Pleasant Hill north of Boyd Road.
Ensure that airport operations do not adversely affect quality of life and safety for residents.
HS-6.1 Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan Adherence
Ensure consistency with the County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan development restrictions.
HS-6.2 Airport Coordination
Coordinate with Buchanan Field Airport on land use considerations where compatibility issues may occur on the border of the airfield.

Noise
While a certain amount of noise is a part of daily urban life, exposure to excessive noise is considered detrimental to well-being and contributes to undue stress, sleep and concentration disturbance, and even health issues. State law requires a general plan to identify and address noise generation in the community and establish current and projected noise levels for roadways, railroads, airports, industrial uses, and other significant sources. Noise contour maps are used as guides to establish land use patterns that minimize exposure of residents to excessive noise.
Major noise sources for Pleasant Hill include vehicular traffic on freeways and major streets, such as Interstate 680 and Contra Costa Boulevard, operations at some commercial centers, and noise generated by construction projects. Noise levels are not expected to change significantly during the 20- year timeframe of this general plan. Noise contours projected for Pleasant Hill at General Plan buildout are shown in Figure HS-5 and are depicted in terms of the Day-Night Average Level. Figure HS-6 shows the land use noise compatibility criteria representing the maximum acceptable noise, in decibels, that may be received by for each of the listed land use categories (2040 Noise Contours).

Alternatively, back-up alarms shall be disabled and replaced with human spotters to ensure safety when mobile construction equipment is moving in the reverse direction in compliance with applicable safety laws and regulations.
Electrically-Powered Tools and Facilities. Electrical power shall be used to run air compressors and similar power tools and to power any temporary structures, such as construction trailers or caretaker facilities, where feasible. Noise Disturbance Coordinator. The project applicant shall designate a “noise disturbance coordinator” responsible for responding to any local complaints about construction noise. The disturbance coordinator shall determine the cause of any noise complaint and shall require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem. A telephone number for the disturbance coordinator and the City shall be posted at the construction site.
Temporary Noise Barriers. Erect temporary noise barriers, where feasible, when construction noise is predicted to exceed the acceptable standards (e.g., 80 dBA Leq at residential receivers, schools or other sensitive receptors during the daytime) and when the anticipated construction duration is greater than is typical (e.g., two years or greater). Temporary noise barriers shall be constructed with solid materials (e.g., wood) with a density of at least 1.5 pounds per square foot with no gaps from the ground to the top of the barrier. If a sound blanket is used, barriers shall be constructed with solid material with a density of at least 1 pound per square foot with no gaps from the ground to the top of the barrier and be lined on the construction side with acoustical blanket, curtain or equivalent absorptive material rated sound transmission class (STC) 32 or higher.
HS-7.7 Construction Vibration Control Measures
Prior to issuance of a building permit for a project requiring pile driving during construction within 135 feet of fragile structures such as historical resources, 100 feet of non-engineered timber and masonry buildings (e.g., most residential buildings), or within 75 feet of engineered concrete and masonry (no plaster); a vibratory roller within 40 feet of fragile historical resources or 25 feet of any other structure; or a dozer or other large earthmoving equipment within 20 feet for a fragile historical structure or 15 feet of any other structure, the project applicant shall prepare a groundborne noise and vibration analysis to assess and mitigate potential noise and vibration impacts related to these construction activities. This noise and vibration analysis shall be conducted by a qualified and experienced acoustical consultant or engineer. The vibration levels shall not exceed FTA architectural damage thresholds (e.g., 0.12 in/sec PPV for fragile or historical resources, 0.2 in/sec PPV for nonengineered timber and masonry buildings, and 0.3 in/sec PPV for engineered concrete Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
9-24 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
and masonry). If vibration levels would exceed this threshold, alternative uses such as drilling piles as opposed to pile driving, static rollers as opposed to vibratory rollers, and lower horsepower earthmoving equipment shall be used. If necessary, construction vibration monitoring shall be conducted to ensure FTA vibration thresholds are not exceeded.
Hazardous Materials
A hazardous material is any material that, due to its quantity, concentration, or physical or chemical characteristics, poses a significant present or potential hazard to human health and safety or to the environment. Hazardous materials include industrial wastes, pesticides, herbicides, infectious waste, radioactive materials, and combustible fuels. Transport and storage of hazardous materials pose potential public safety hazards in Pleasant Hill. Vehicle accidents involving hazardous materials have historically occurred on Interstate 680, and no regulations are in place to prevent trucks from carrying hazardous materials through the city.
Stationary sources of hazardous materials in Pleasant Hill include air emissions from industrial land uses, soil and groundwater contamination from industrial and commercial activities, and fuel pipelines and storage in various parts of the city. Industrial and commercial sources of wastes can include activities from dry cleaners and service stations to manufacturing and repair services. Two fuel pipelines also traverse the city: one beneath Taylor Boulevard and another beneath the Iron Horse Trail at the eastern edge of the city. Both pipelines are equipped with pressure-sensitive valves that automatically shut off flow in the event of a break in the line, although gas pipeline failures are considered unlikely and low risk to the community.
Hazardous materials storage in Pleasant Hill is limited to fuels in underground tanks at service stations and chemicals at light industrial sites. Each business storing hazardous materials must obtain permits from the City and the Fire District and must file a Hazardous Materials Business Plan that establishes incident prevention measures, handling protocols, and evacuation procedures with the County Environmental Health Department. The Plans are also reviewed by the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District.
The Fire District enforces the stipulations contained in the plans once they are approved.
Reduce the exposure to hazardous substances and the resulting potential for injuries, economic and social displacement, and loss of life.
HS-8.1 Hazardous Materials Business Plans
Monitor and regulate hazardous materials by requiring the preparation and periodic updating Hazardous Materials Business Plans for and periodic inspections of all businesses in the city that handle, store, use, or transport hazardous materials.

Public Health Emergencies
During health emergencies, local jurisdictions provide initial leadership, resources, and information to their citizens while establishing public-private and regional response efforts. Pandemics have the potential to be the most-deadly threat to public health. A pandemic can occur when a new strain of influenza or other pathogen emerges to which most or all of the world’s human population has had no previous exposure and thus has no immunity. In the last century, multiple influenza pandemics have swept the globe.
In 1918, a flu pandemic (sometimes referred to as the “Spanish Flu”) killed over 500,000 Americans and more than 20 million people worldwide. One-third of the U.S. population was infected, and average life expectancy was reduced by 13 years. (Source: National Strategy for Pandemic Influenza)
Pandemics in 1957 and 1968 killed tens of thousands of Americans and millions across the world. (Source: National Strategy for Pandemic Influenza) In the spring of 2009, a novel influenza A (H1N1) virus emerged. It was detected first in the United States and spread quickly across the United States and the world. From April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, CDC estimated there were 60.8 million cases (range: 43.3-89.3 million), 274,304 hospitalizations (range: 195,086-402,719), and 12,469 deaths (range: 8868-18,306) in the United States.
The 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic has spread rapidly since its discovery in December 2019. COVID19 is an illness caused by a new coronavirus that can spread from person to person. As of August 5, 2020, there have been more than 4.8 million confirmed cases and 158,000 deaths in Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan | Policy Document
9-26 Pleasant Hill 2040 General Plan Adopted May 2023
the United States. Globally, 18.6 million cases have been confirmed and 701,000 people have died from the effects of the novel corona virus.
Although the timing, nature, and severity of a pandemic cannot be predicted, a planned and coordinated response is critical to minimizing the public health impact, as well as the social and economic disruption to our everyday lives.
Reduce the potential and severity of short- and long-term health emergencies, control the rate and extent of the spread of an illness, reduce economic and social displacement, and minimize loss of life.
HS-9.1 Implement Public Health Guidance
Implement all guidance from appropriate State and Contra Costa County agencies relative to declared public health emergencies.

2. DEVELOPMENT MITIGATION PROGRAM
Resolution No. 76-96 (Adopted December 16th, 1996)
&
TRANSPAC Sub-regional Transportation Mitigation Program
44 5.2.1 TRANSPAC Subregional Transportation Mitigation Program (STMP) This Program is intended to fulfill the requirement for a Subregional Transportation Mitigation Program (STMP) established by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority as part of each jurisdiction's compliance with the Measure J Growth Management Program. STMP requirements are applicable to jurisdictions with statutory land use authority in the Central Contra Costa TRANSPAC area.
This program creates a requirement for an interjurisdictional agreement(s) to mitigate traffic impacts of net new peak hour vehicle trips should a proposed development meet or exceed the established interregional net new peak hour vehicle trip threshold for Routes of Regional Significance and that result in significant cumulative traffic impacts on such Routes. As provided under CEQA, an impacted jurisdiction may request an analysis of and mitigation from a proposed development outside that jurisdiction even if the established thresholds in the STMP may not have been met.
1. While the standard for project notifications to TRANSPAC and other RTPCs remains at 100 net new peak hour vehicle trips, the STMP is geared to an assessment of the cumulative impacts of net new peak hour vehicle trips and net new peak hour interregional vehicle trips on Routes of Regional Significance. Nexus and rough proportionality requirements are to be individually addressed as part of the proposed development's environmental assessment under the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA) as amended. For the purposes of the STMP, "interregional trip" is defined as any trip with origin or destination outside of the "home" jurisdiction in which the development is located.
2. The STMP requires the execution of an interjurisdictional agreement(s) to mitigate the cumulative impacts of development generating peak hour and interregional vehicle trips at or above the thresholds established in paragraph 3 for the development and for Routes of Regional Significance (Note: a jurisdiction may voluntarily choose to address impacts of interregional trips on roads other than Routes of Regional Significance).
3. STMP requirements are to be followed if it is first determined that a development project generates 500 or more net new peak hour vehicle trips and subsequently is determined to generate 100 or more interregional net new vehicle trips in any peak hour on a Route of Regional Significance as defined in the Central County Action Plan and/or the Comprehensive Countywide Transportation Plan. Jurisdictions are to execute a mitigation agreement(s) with all impacted TRANSPAC jurisdictions.
Interjurisdictional agreements are strongly encouraged to be executed to address impacts on TRANSPAC jurisdictions by outside jurisdictions. 45 TRANSPAC jurisdictions also expect to execute such agreements with jurisdictions impacted by TRANSPAC area projects as well.
For the purpose of determining if the above thresholds are met ( i.e. 500 net new peak hour project vehicle trips and 100 net new interregional peak hour vehicle trips) and assessing cumulative traffic impacts on Routes of Regional Significance, a cumulative trip analysis must be completed as part of the CEQA assessment.
This cumulative analysis is to review incremental trips (net new peak hour vehicle trips) not only generated by the proposed development, but also trips from "related past, present, and reasonably probable future projects" as defined by CEQA. If such cumulative analysis meets the trip thresholds and results in significant cumulative traffic impacts, the proposed development is responsible for mitigating its proportionate share of the impacts via an interjurisdictional agreement(s). Cumulative impacts are generally defined as a) existing traffic counts plus b) approved projects which have not yet been constructed or operated plus c) pending projects under review and consideration for approval by the proper agency(ies) plus d) any anticipated projects for which environmental review (e.g. Negative Declaration, Mitigated Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report/Study) has been completed.
4. The required CEQA environmental assessment for a development project is to be used to determine if cumulative impacts on Routes of Regional Significance need to be mitigated.
A. If a development project meets or exceeds the thresholds established in Section 3 above and the environmental assessment can be accomplished by a Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration, the jurisdiction will undertake a focused traffic study to determine if the requirements of the STMP apply. The traffic study will assess cumulative traffic impacts on Routes of Regional Significance beyond the home jurisdiction.
B. Should the requirements apply, the interjurisdictional agreement(s) on mitigation measures, actions and/or fees would require the voluntary consent and sponsorship of the project applicant. (Note: if such voluntary consent is not achieved, CEQA requires that an EIR be prepared, see Section 4B.) The agreement(s) will be developed in cooperation with affected jurisdictions and are to include the identification, implementation and monitoring mechanism(s) for mitigation of impacts (e.g. Central County Action Plan and Countywide Comprehensive Transportation Plan mitigation measures, actions, payment of fees, etc.)
C. If a development project meets or exceeds the thresholds and the environmental assessment requires the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), the EIR will include an analysis of cumulative traffic 46 impacts outside the home jurisdiction to determine if the requirements of the STMP apply. Should the requirements apply, an interjurisdictional agreement(s) establishing the developer responsibility to mitigate project impacts (e. g. Central County Action Plan and Countywide Comprehensive Transportation Plan mitigation measures, actions, payment of fees, etc.) is required. The agreement(s) will be developed in cooperation with the affected jurisdictions and include the identification, implementation and monitoring mechanism(s) for mitigation requirements. Early consultation with affected jurisdictions is suggested.
D. If a development project does not exceed the thresholds as determined under the cumulative analysis) and the required CEQA assessment is accomplished through a Categorical Exemption, Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration, the jurisdiction is not required to develop an interjurisdictional agreement(s). Such development projects are likely to be small infill projects which are to be encouraged to promote jobs/housing balance, increased services and sustainability.
E. It is also possible that after a traffic analysis has been completed under 4A or 4B above, the participating jurisdictions may determine that no significant cumulative traffic impacts are expected to occur on Routes of Regional Significance. Similarly, it may be determined that the development does not create or increase congestion on a Route of Regional Significance and/or that the traffic increase is insignificant relative to the existing traffic volumes and/or capacity of the Route, and, as a result, does not warrant the development/execution of an interjurisdictional agreement. Under such circumstances, the parties may determine, and should document, that an interjurisdictional agreement is not necessary.
5. TRANSPAC may amend the STMP with the approval of its member jurisdictions at any time.
