efforts the School District is trying to achieve. She is also concerned that the letter may give the appearance of cooperative fee developers not being good citizens. She wanted to let the community know that there are multiple funding sources for facilities available. She said the letter suggests that the list of school projects could be changed to delete facilities that the development community is paying for. If CAPP passes developers might feel they might be able to remove projects from the list. She felt this was not fair. She had concerns over the shortfall. The agreement specifically states that no surplus may occur,but that a shortfall may occur. Mayor Tarver said potential litigation needed to be discussed in a closed session.

Ken Chrisman, 1944 Vineyard,asked how the Initiative would affect Happy Valley? Will Happy Valley be zoned agricultural? Of the five areas listed on the Initiative,Vineyard Corridor is the only property that is currently within the City's boundaries. The other properties have the alternative to appeal to the County for consideration. Does this same opportunity apply to the Vineyard Corridor'? He did not understand why the Vineyard Corridor is being considered with the other properties. He believed San Francisco would negotiate something in the County. Is the concept of agricultural within the City just a way to control open space or is it really an opportunity for some property owners to have an economic value for their land.
