Councilmember Sullivan said Councilmember McGovern brought up a good point; if it is a <br /> citizen's Initiative, three members of the Council cannot change the policy. If the motion is voted <br /> on and some sort of policy or regulation is developed, it could be put into the General Plan. All it <br /> takes is a majority of the Council to change the General Plan, but he does not believe this is <br /> what the community wants. He questioned if Councilmember McGovem's suggestion could be <br /> considered that whatever ordinance or protections comes from this, i.e., would the Council <br /> submit it to a vote of the people. This way, if they agreed with the Council, we would know this is <br /> what the public would want, it would be voted on, and then three people cannot change it at a <br /> later time. <br /> Mayor Hosterman said she would be willing to consider this, but wanted to consider it <br /> thoroughly and suggested acting on the motion as is. <br /> Councilmember McGovern said she also pointed out that you can wait as development can be <br /> approved in the southeast hills before any ordinance is done, and she questioned if a <br /> moratorium on growth could be included until this is done. <br /> Mayor Hosterman said not at this point, but we could have that discussion on July 15. <br /> City Attorney Roush indicated that on July 15"', substantive elements of the 1996 General Plan <br /> would be included for what is to be placed on the ballot for consideration. <br /> Motion: It was m/s by Cook-Kallio/Thome to direct staff to prepare a council sponsored initiative <br /> for the November 2008 election that would re-affirm the 1996 General Plan policies concerning <br /> hillside regulations, define a collaborative and public process to identify ridgelines and hillsides <br /> where development should not occur, set a time frame to conclude that process, and otherwise <br /> have provisions that would serve as an alternative to the Save Pleasanton's Hills & Housing <br /> Cap Initiative. . Motion passed by the following vote: <br /> Ayes: Councilmembers Cook-Kallio, Thome, Mayor Hosterman <br /> Noes: Councilmembers McGovern and Sullivan <br /> Absent: None <br /> ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:33 p.m. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Karen Diaz <br /> City Clerk <br /> Special Meeting Minutes 17 June 26, 2008 <br />
