City of Pleasanton
1. ONE Pleasanton 5-Year Strategic Plan. Strategies to build a community where everyone belongs (page 16) calls for the City to “advance the East Pleasanton Specific Plan.”
2. General Plan. The Land Use Element, beginning on page 2-11, describes East Pleasanton as an area of special interest. Land Use Element Program 6.1 calls for the City to prepare an East Pleasanton Specific Plan.

6. Draft East Pleasanton Specific Plan. The 2014 Draft East Pleasanton Specific Plan (not adopted) established a vision for future development in the East Pleasanton Specific Plan area.
7. Draft EIR for the East Pleasanton Specific Plan. The Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the East Pleasanton Specific Plan analyzes potential environmental impacts that would have resulted from adoption of the Specific Plan.
8. East Pleasanton Fiscal Impact Analysis. Prepared in 2025, analyzes the net fiscal impacts of the proposed Arroyo Lago, East Lakes, and Parcel H development on the City’s General Fund.

• Calls for the City to “enhance community identity through the protection of community separators, scenic hillsides, and ridgelines.” (p. 14-23) • Describes the quarry lands as a “valuable urban separator between Pleasanton and Livermore” that should be substantially protected (p. 2-12) 25 Chain of Lakes
• Series of former quarry lakes in the Livermore ǦAmador Valley • Intended to be used for water management and related purposes by Zone 7 Water Agency (Zone 7)
• Quarry reclamation plans must comply with surface mining permits and the Specific Plan for Livermore ǦAmador Valley Quarry Area Reclamation (LAVQAR) • Quarry owners and operators must enter into agreements with Zone 7 that establish terms and conditions for reclamation activities. 26 Zone 7 Future Chain of Lakes Configuration (2020)

34 Public Service Facilities
Recommended Policy Questions:
• What is the preferred future of the existing OSC and waste transfer facilities? • Should these existing facilities be relocated? If so, where? 35 Infrastructure and Circulation
• East Pleasanton development will require on-site and off-site infrastructure improvements
• On-site infrastructure funded and constructed by developer • City expectations:
• Off-site water and wastewater infrastructure funded entirely by new development. • New roadway construction, including El Charro Road, funded by both new development and City
36 Infrastructure and Circulation

• Plan changes to increase land values
• Analysis assumed:
• Developers fund and construct shared public infrastructure • Mello-Roos Community Facilities District (CFD) bond used to finance project wide infrastructure.
38 Infrastructure and Circulation
Recommended Policy Questions:
• What mechanisms should the City use to finance public infrastructure in the EPPF study area?
• What amount and type of new development is needed so that it is economically feasible for development projects to finance needed public infrastructure? • Should the City allow additional development in East Pleasanton to help finance El Charro Road?
39 Requested Input
Staff requests City Council and Planning Commission:
• Confirm that the policy questions above should be the focus of continued study; and
• Provide any preliminary input on these policy questions or other project issues. • After receiving City Council and Planning Commission input, staff and consultants will develop options to address the policy questions, and prepare analysis as needed to allow for an informed consideration of the options. City staff will present these options and analysis to the Planning Commission and City Council in early 2026.
