THE CITY OF r . I A te. 1 PLEASANTON• CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT October 7, 2014 City Manager TITLE: CONFIRM APPOINTMENTS TO THE ALVISO ADOBE TASK FORCE SUMMARY On July 15, 2014, the City Council approved the formation of a nine (9) member Alviso Adobe Task Force to assist the City with the development of vision and mission statements and a strategic plan to address the short- and long- term needs of the Alviso Adobe Community Park. In particular, the Task Force will evaluate the possibility of enhancing utilization at the Park through modest capital improvements and/or augmented operational resources. In addition, Council directed staff to explore integration of the recently acquired Castleridge property by the East Bay Regional Park District and 22 acres of open space dedicated to the City as part of the Austin Property proceedings into the planning process. A well-planned interim access incorporating Castleridge and the Austin open space is beneficial to many parties, including the Pleasanton community.
