Mr. Olstad replied that parking is allowed. He stated that Sunset Creek Lane is actually the road that will funnel the traffic initially from the development. Commissioner Balch stated that he was out on that street this morning and saw an illegally parked car. He indicated that he did not see any spot along the road where parking was allowed, and asked Mr. Olstad if it would be farther up along the road Mr. Olstad replied that parking is allowed on both sides, on the entire length of the street. He added that Commissioner Balch may be referring to Sycamore Creek Way, which has bike lanes on each side and basically no parking is allowed on that street. Kay Ayala stated that she is particularly passionate about this subject because she sat on the City Council with the approval of the Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights housing developments, and she was a signatory on Measure PP. She referred to Ms. LaBarge's comment that she lived in the area before Raley's and stated that this is Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights today: it was Junipero Street when Ms. LaBarge moved in; then a development can and more traffic with it; then a second development came and still more traffic; and still more traffic with development three. Ms. Ayala stated that they are asking people on Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights to take what they signed for in their CC&R's and to take the traffic that they knew was coming, that Mike Meyers of Greenbriar knew was coming when Greenbriar developed Bridle Creek. She noted that when those projects were approved, the Council sat through hours and hours with people from Ventana Hills, Bonde, Mission Hills, and Junipero, and these people have been fighting for what is law. She added that this cannot be considered law, the PUDs, the General Plans from 1996 and from 2005, everything puts the traffic through Sycamore; and there is not one document in City records that puts the traffic through Lund Ranch Road. Ms. Ayala stated that she is passionate about this because as a signatory for Measure PP, they were in the City Manager's Office before the election and clarified it did not include roads. She noted that both the City Manager and the Councilmembers know that, and the records show that, so this discussion about roads should be non-existent. She indicated that this subject goes to the very essence of trusting government, and if citizens cannot trust previous Council commitments, then Pleasanton is not a community of character. She asked the Commission to trust its staffs conclusions that Option 3 is the best for the community. Justin Brown stated that he knew a lot of time and effort has been put into this discussion by both the Commissioners and City staff. He indicated that he was impressed to hear that a member of the Commission actually went out and looked at the two neighborhoods. He added that he will not belabor the points about traffic, slope, and Measure PP as he has made statements on those matters before, but will talk about the options. Mr. Brown stated that Option 1 is an unacceptable option because it ignores 20 years of planning and coordination between neighborhoods. He added that Option 2, as previously mentioned, obviously would be the most favorable for his neighborhood EXCERPT: PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES, June 24, 2015 Page 22 of 45
