Rotary's dedication of the community clock on April 30th, coupled with the city's efforts, have made for a very nice entry to the downtown area.

He also invited the entire community to visit the 50 Years of Rotary in Pleasanton exhibit at the Museum on Main. PUBLIC HEARINGS AND OTHER MATTERS 18. Consider adoption of a resolution to stop the East Pleasanton Specific Plan (EPSP) planning and environmental review process, have EPSP process considered as part of the next City Council regular Priority Setting, and stop work by EPSP Task Force and thank and disband Task Force; or other actions as previously considered related to the EPSP process Councilmember Olson recused himself from the item due to a conflict of interest and left the Council Chamber. Assistant City Manager Dolan presented the staff report, stating that at its last meeting the City Council asked staff to prepare a resolution related to ceasing the East Pleasanton Specific Plan process. As proposed, the resolution states that the planning process and preparation of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) would halt, that the task force would be thanked for its work and then disbanded, and that any future decisions regarding resuming the process would be considered as part of a regular City Council priority setting session at such time the Council felt it was appropriate. If adopted, staff would remove this task from the Council's Work Plan priority list for the coming 2 years. Vice Mayor Brown asked and Mr. Dolan confirmed that removing the item from the Work Plan would alleviate staff time. Mayor Thome opened the item for public comment. Knut Ojermark said his concerns with the current plan related to traffic, schools and water impacts and that he feels no water should be given to new development when resources are so limited. He said he was pleased to learn nothing more would occur with the plan for at least 2 years. Kay Ayala said she hoped any future consideration of resuming the process would be done publicly. She also offered her assistance with pursuing some form of relief from the state with regards to housing allocations. City Council Minutes Page 3 of 18 June 16,2015
