Ayes: Councilmembers Cook-Kallio, McGovern, Sullivan, Thorne, Mayor Hosterman <br /> Noes: None <br /> Absent: None <br /> Abstain: None <br /> Motion: It was m/s by Sullivan/McGovern to adopt Resolution No. 08-227 calling and giving <br /> notice of the holding of a General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, November 4, 2008 <br /> for the submission to the voters questions relating to the Save Pleasanton's Hills and Housing <br /> Cap Initiative, and related election matters. Motion passed by the following vote: <br /> Ayes: Councilmembers Cook-Kallio, McGovern, Sullivan, Thorne, Mayor Hosterman <br /> Noes: None <br /> Absent: None <br /> Abstain: None <br /> BREAK: Mayor Hosterman called for a five-minute break at 8:45 p.rn. and thereafter <br /> reconvened the regular meeting. <br /> 17. Adopt a resolution placing an initiative measure to protect ridgelines and hillsides and to <br /> clarify growth management procedures on the November 4, 2008 ballot; and approve <br /> related election procedures <br /> Assistant City Attorney Seto gave the staff report, stating the Council gave direction at its June <br /> 26"' meeting for staff to return with a proposed ballot measure regarding hillsides, ridgelines, <br /> and clarifying growth management issues. The Council gave direction this should embody <br /> several different items the Council can review, that the measure include a collaborative and <br /> public process to include potentially different stakeholders in a process to develop future <br /> ordinances and guidelines; that the ordinance would protect critical ridges, hillsides particularly <br /> in the south and east hills area, and that there be an engineering basis for these new <br /> regulations, including looking at new issues such as view lines, geotechnical information, <br /> elevations and other types of data. Council also directed this measure re-affirm existing General <br /> Plan policies with regards to ridgelines and hillsides, and also preserve the growth management <br /> cap while clarifying issues regarding growth management and housing units. Also, that there <br /> should be a deadline to complete this process to have the new ordinance in place through the <br /> collaborative and public process and that this measure would be an alternative measure to the <br /> Save Pleasanton Hills and Housing Cap Initiative. And, as an alternative measure it would mean <br /> that if this measure received more votes, this measure would prevail and the other would not be <br /> enacted. <br /> The Council would need to take action on the text, the title and the ballot question, make a <br /> decision on whether the Council would participate and how they would participate in ballot <br /> arguments, and then adopt the resolution placing the matter on the ballot that would incorporate <br /> all of those decisions. <br /> Vice Mayor Thorne questioned and confirmed that if the Council chose to put a deadline on the <br /> draft ordinance, it could be earlier than November 2009. Councilmember McGovern confirmed <br /> with the City Manager that an environmental study would be done if the draft ordinance is <br /> completed and that it could be a negative declaration or a full EIR and the Initiative talks about <br /> the ordinance or guidelines being completed by November 2009 so it could go into 2010 with <br /> the EIR. Conversely, the timeline can be shortened and the Council can request the process be <br /> completed within 6-8 months. <br /> City Council Minutes 8 July 15, 2008 <br />
