emphasis on the Historic Preservation Task Force as well as the East Pleasanton <br /> Specific Plan Task Force is appropriate. <br /> Chair Blank indicated his support 100 percent. <br /> Commissioners Olson and Narum agreed. <br /> Commissioner O'Connor stated that he wanted to put in only one solid item and did not <br /> really think it necessary to have the other two take up slots; however, he is fine with <br /> Commissioner Pearce's proposal. <br /> Commissioner Pearce stated that she thinks one priority accomplishes everything; <br /> however, she wants to re-emphasize that the two Task Forces need to keep going. She <br /> indicated that the Commission promised the community that it would not let the two <br /> Task Forces languish, not that they would languish, but she wanted to re-emphasize <br /> that. <br /> Commissioner Pearce moved to make updating the Hacienda PUD documents its <br /> main priority and to continue focus on the two Task Forces which were the <br /> Commission's prior priorities. <br /> Commissioner Olson seconded the motion. <br /> ROLL CALL VOTE: <br /> AYES: Commissioners Blank, Narum, O'Connor, Olson, and Pearce. <br /> NOES: None. <br /> ABSTAIN: None. <br /> RECUSED: None. <br /> ABSENT: None. <br /> Commissioner O'Connor stated that before the Commission moves off of this topic, one <br /> item he had brought up was traffic throughout the City. He noted that the Commission <br /> had received a report from Mike Tassano, City Traffic Engineer, and he was surprised <br /> and somewhat disappointed that it sounds like everything that can be done with the <br /> City's traffic systems and software has been done and that traffic signal lights are <br /> actually timed. <br /> Mr. Dolan stated that the traffic signal timing is a constant and ongoing effort and that <br /> staff spends a lot of time on this. He noted that every time changes are made with the <br /> timing and somebody likes it, there is an equal and opposite reaction of somebody who <br /> does not like it. <br /> Commissioner O'Connor continued that it appears staff has been doing this for about <br /> ten years, and it should not be expected to get a whole lot better because the City has <br /> what it has. <br /> PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 13, 2013 Page 34 of 35 <br />
