I became of aware of the location last week after seeing an article in the Pleasanton Weekly. I was <br /> informed that the City Council had been considering three different sites within the property and chose the <br /> site at the staging area of the Marilyn Kane Trail next to Bernal Ave. <br /> I am a home owner on Foothill Place which is directly adjacent to the three acre site the City Council approved <br /> for the new dog park. What the Council may not have taken into consideration before choosing this location is <br /> that this site will directly impact dozens of homes in the immediate area. Our properties are directly across <br /> Arroyo de la Laguna Creek from the proposed dog park. <br /> The neighborhoods surrounding this project will be subjected to barking dogs from dawn to dusk, 7 days a <br /> week. A dog park in this location will add to the intolerable traffic congestion on Bernal Avenue between <br /> Foothill Road and the entrance to the 680 on-ramp. Furthermore, it will impact the peace,tranquility, and <br /> privacy of our homes and may affect our property values dramatically. The noise could also impact the ability <br /> to sell our homes. <br /> Other upscale cities such as Danville, San Ramon, and Walnut Creek have dog parks directly adjacent to large <br /> city parks where there is ample parking and open space. Pleasanton should choose a similar site to build a dog <br /> park. <br /> I have spoken to and represent every homeowner in our neighborhood, and we are adamant,that the City <br /> Council take action to move the location of the dog park away from our homes. We will meet with you, sign <br /> petitions, whatever is necessary to make this change. <br /> Please tell us how we should proceed in working with the City Council on this matter. <br /> . <br /> • <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Robert and Janet Roth <br /> 16 Foothill Place <br /> Pleasanton CA 94588 <br /> Click here to report this email as spam. <br /> 1 <br />
