report and that the ordinance would come before the Commission for consideration and subsequent recommendation to Council. Commissioner Fox noted that a few years back, the Planning Commission had discussed agendizing discussion along these lines. Ms. Decker replied that this discussion first occurred when the General Plan was considering some language limiting development on 25 percent grading slopes in Public Health and Safety districts. She noted that the Council reviewed and made recommendations on the subject but did not adopt any particular language changes with regard to limiting construction within those areas. She added that the discussion was followed by a variety of projects, including the Oak Grove project that included both the Council and the Commission, followed by the Initiative. She stated that the Council is considering the topic again at this time. Commissioner Fox inquired if staff could look into the Pleasanton Ridgelands Initiative that was adopted in the 1990's, which, she understood was no longer valid because a Court of Appeals judge threw it out. Ms. Decker indicated that she was not familiar with it. Ms. Harryman stated she would look into it. 8. MATTERS FOR COMMISSION'S REVIEW /ACTION a. Future Planning Calendar Staples Ranch Projects Ms. Decker informed the Commission that beginning with the April 23 packet, an outline of the Planning Commission meeting schedule for Staples Ranch would be included in the packet. She further informed the Commission that when Staples Ranch comes before the Commission at its regular meetings, Staples Ranch items would be the only item(s) on the agenda. She noted that in that respect, the Commission will have to meet on other dates to conduct its regular business. She requested the Commissioners to check their calendars for special meeting dates on May 21 and June 26 Commissioner O'Connor stated that he noticed there were two items in last meeting's Future Planning Calendar, PV- 128 /PDR -470 at 287 Old Bernal Avenue and PCUP -176, 326 St. Mary Street, that were no longer on the list. Ms. Decker replied that both projects have not been withdrawn but are at a standstill, and staff does not know at this point when it might come forward. She noted that the project on Old Bernal Avenue is going through some design modification across the street and has a high FAR. She added that the project on St. Mary Street was a proposal for a use permit for the second floor. Commissioner Fox commented that she believed there was a condition of approval put on the property at St. Mary Street regarding the time the patio should close at night. Ms. Decker clarified that the condition was for the first floor, and this application is for the second floor. Commissioner O'Connor inquired if the operator on the second floor would be the same as that on the first floor. Ms. Decker said it would be a different person.
