He stated that <br /> Pleasanton lost two of biggest heroes over the past week with the untimely passing of former <br /> Mayor Ben Tarver and former City Councilmember DeWitt Wilson. <br /> Councilmember McGovern recalled Mr. Wilson's time on the City Council as well as his <br /> campaign button which resembled the Wilson tennis ball. She also recalled Mr. Tarver's <br /> involvement in ridge land protection and the development of the Bernal property. <br /> Councilmember Cook Kallio said she was familiar with Mr. Wilson by reputation only and that <br /> Mr. Tarver was the first elected official in Pleasanton that she could recall being so accessible to <br /> the public. <br /> Vice -Mayor Thorne said he was first introduced to Mr. Wilson when he decided to run for public <br /> office, that Mr. Dewitt was a great support throughout his political career, and that he will be <br /> sorely missed. He recalled that Mr. Tarver first assigned him to public office on the Planning <br /> Commission in 1995 and that the two worked together closely on the construction of the 50 <br /> meter swimming pool that is now at the Aquatic Center. <br /> Councilmember Sullivan led a moment of silence in remembrance of two gentlemen who did so <br /> much for the City of Pleasanton. <br /> ROLL CALL <br /> Present: Councilmembers Cook Kallio, McGovern, Sullivan, Vice Mayor Thorne <br /> Absent: Mayor Hosterman <br /> AGENDA AMENDMENTS <br /> City Manager Fialho said Item 19, Public Hearing: PAP -139 has been continued to February 2, <br /> 2010. <br /> CONSENT CALENDAR <br /> Administrative Services <br /> 1.
