indicated that he is very confident that everyone will all be moving forward and reach <br />goals that will be amenable to all the parties. <br /> <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. <br /> <br />Commissioner Pentin disclosed that he met with the representatives of Kiewit, Legacy <br />Partners, and Pleasanton Gateway. <br /> <br />Commissioner Olson disclosed that he exchanged emails with the representatives of <br />Pleasanton Gateway and with Auf der Maur/Rickenbach. <br /> <br />Commissioner Blank disclosed that he exchanged emails with the representatives of <br />Pleasanton Gateway and some others. <br /> <br />Commissioner Pearce disclosed that she met with the representatives of Pleasanton <br />Gateway, Auf der Maur/Rickenbach, and Kiewit. <br /> <br />Chair Narum disclosed that she met with representatives of Pleasanton Gateway, Auf <br />der Maur/Rickenbach, Kiewit, and Legacy Partners. <br /> <br />Commissioner <br />Gateway and Auf der Maur/Rickenbach. <br /> <br />Referring to Ms. Allen's comments regarding Auf der Maur/Rickenbach (Site 8), <br />Commissioner Pearce inquired whether or not, if the Commission were to theoretically <br />decide to retain the 5.3 acres, it would necessarily preclude a future discussion about <br />this project designating 11.5 acres for residential. <br /> <br />Mr. Dolan replied that it might not because the HCD discussion is almost an accounting <br />game of achieving a certain number of acreage at a certain density. He added that this <br />could probably be developed as such, but the objection is not to the accounting game <br />but to the total number of units, and it all depends on what the Commission ends up <br />zoning the remainder. He noted that if the Commission zoned just 5.3 acres at high <br />density, then there is a left-over chunk for what was envisioned to be commercial, and if <br />retail is placed in the corners, the remainder will most likely not remain as commercial <br />but probably will ultimately be lower density residential. He indicated that whether or <br />not that project could fit exactly would depend on what density is put on the remainder. <br /> <br />Commissioner Pearce stated that she understands the objection to be more regarding <br />the public outreach and potential change rather than the number of units that was not <br />discussed in the multiple communities meetings held by the Task Force. She <br />acknowledged that ultimately, there may be an objection to the number of units, but the <br />objection she has heard currently is regarding the public outreach. She indicated that <br />she understood there are already zoning designations on this parcel, but wanted to <br />understand the community's concern regarding public outreach, given that 11.5 acres <br />was not in chart that has been presented multiple times to the community.
