Mayor Thorne opened the item for public comment. Jon Asmussen stated that he and Greg Jetter of the Ballistic United Soccer Club have spent the last several months working closely with city staff to draft this MOU and is pleased to have reached an agreement that all of the sports group could support. He thanked staff for their efforts and all of the groups who participated in the process. He acknowledged the wonderful sports facilities provided by the city over the years but said that lighted all-weather fields have been a long-standing need. He said the facility will be a truly attractive opportunity for business sponsors in the community and he is confident there will be a strong interest in brands wishing to associate themselves with the project. Mayor Thome closed public comment. Mayor Thorne said that the idea to apply the example of the Firehouse Arts Center here has worked out beautifully and he thanked the sports groups for their participation. Councilmember Brown said that the level of cooperation demonstrated here is truly impressive. Councilmember Narum said she couldn't be happier for the youth of the community to see this move forward.

Public Hearing: Consider General Plan Amendments, Rezoning, Establishment of a Zoning Designation, a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Development Plan, a PUD Major Modification and a Negative Declaration to accommodate a proposed Chick-fil-A restaurant to be located at 6111 Johnson Court, a vacant parcel, and 5225-6015 Johnson Drive Planning Manager Weinstein presented the staff report, stating that the applicant is requesting approval for construction of an approximately 5,400 square-foot restaurant onsite as well as associated offsite improvements. He briefly reviewed the 0.8-acre project site, which is assembled from pieces of three different parcels and located just south of the eastbound I-580/Hopyard Road off ramp and at a major entryway to the city. The site is located within Pleasanton Park Business Park and immediately adjacent to the Pleasanton Square II portion of the park which currently contains a BevMo, Smart & Final and In & Out Burger among other things. The project application includes a PUD Development Plan, General Plan amendments and zonings to ensure the land use and zoning designations of the site are unified and consistent with those of the shopping center surrounding the site, and a PUD Major Modification to the Pleasanton Square II Shopping Center PUD to absorb the project site. The Chick-fil-A restaurant would operate from 6 a.m. to midnight Monday through Saturday and be closed on Sundays. As proposed, the project would accommodate 139 indoor and 56 outdoor seats. 16 parking spaces would be provided on site with the remainder of the parking demand satisfied by 30 parking spaces shared among all tenants of the shopping center. The project would provide two drive- through lanes to allow for more efficient stacking of vehicles and a trash enclosure, which would accommodate solid, recyclable and organic waste, to the south of the building.
