For the project uses proposed, -community need has been demonstrated. The , proposed project, which will include 892 rental condominium units and may include a senior housing component, will help to improve . the jobs/housing balance within the Pleasant Hill 'BART Station area by providing a high concentration of housing near office development within the BART Station area. It will also maximize the opportu- nity for convenient public transit use by locat- ing a high density residential project near the BART Station. The preliminary development plan for the Park Regency project reflects architectur- al and design merit. Resolution 88/461 Park Regency 3 Resolution No. 88/461 d) The proposed retail component of the Park Regency project will serve the neighborhood which consists of residential and office developments. The traf- fic and circulation impacts associated with the retail center have been adequately analysed in the Final EIR Supplement. Traffic impacts will be obviated or mitigated through presently projected improvements and by provisions in the plan for proper access (entry and exit on Oak Road) and by internal provisions for circulation, and parking. Prior to final development plan approval a study of the proposed shared parking arrangement will be submitted to the County Planning Commission for review to ensure the adequacy of the parking plan. The development will be an attractive and effi- cient retail center which will fit; harmoniously into the Park Regency mixed use development project and the surrounding area, and will not adversely affect the adjacent office/commercial developments or surrounding neighborhood. The retail center is restricted to neighborhood serv- ing retail types of uses. e) The Park Regency project is a mixed use develop- ment which integrates high density residential development with a project/neighborhood serving retail center and a childcare facility. The project is planned to provide a mix of uses on the site in order to meet the daily needs of project residents in a convenient manner and to minimize the need for automobile usage. The project site' s proximity to the Pleasant Hill BART Station will also help to maximize the opportunity for conve- nient public transit use. The project will also help to improve the jobs/housing balance by siting a high density residential project near to the office development within the Pleasant Hill BART Station area. The project design incorporates sig- nificant landscaped open areas and a variety of recreational amenities. The building design for the project reflects architectua`l-: merit and quali- ty building materials will be employed. As such the development reflects a harmonious and inte- grated plan for development.
