Maria Lara Assistant to the City Manager (925)931-5009 City of Pleasanton P.O. Box 520 Pleasanton, CA 94566-0802 www.pleasantonrecycles.org Original Message From: Susan Ko [ Sent: Tuesday,April 16, 2013 10:28 AM To: Mayor and City Council Subject: Save Mission Hills Park Dear elected Pleasanton City Council members: As a resident on Junipero Street, my primary concern regarding Measures PP and QQ is the impact that future proposed development(s) will have on traffic on Junipero Street and around Mission Hills Park. Anyone familiar with our neighborhood can attest that there is far too much traffic on Junipero Street, especially during rush hour, and that traffic around the park often creates unsafe conditions for children and families. I am very concerned that if Measures PP and QQ are interpreted in such a way that a road is defined a structure, then traffic from the proposed Lund Ranch II development will be funneled down to Mission Hills Park and Junipero Street. The original development plan stated that roads would be connected to Sycamore Road (or Sycamore Creek Way), and my understanding is that buyers purchasing the new homes in the Sycamore Creek neighborhood understood that traffic from new developments would go through their neighborhood. The design of Sycamore_ Creek Way (double yellow line in the middle, no street parking allowed) makes it obvious that the road was designed to accommodate more traffic.Junipero Street was not designed to handle a high volume of traffic.To use Measures PP and QQ to overturn the original development plan is grossly unfair to residents of our neighborhood and would create even more unsafe conditions at Mission Hills Park, a park used by residents from all around Pleasanton. As a Pleasanton resident and registered voter, I feel that it is very important for City Council members to make sure that the original agreement, stating that Lund Ranch II traffic should NOT be directed towards Junipero Street, is upheld. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Susan Ko 1
