Public Comment Carrie Cox spoke regarding the Pleasanton community and read from its descriptions on Wikipedia, citing its small town flavor and noting that it was ranked as the 41 best American city to live in. She inquired whether in 2018 Pleasanton would be described as having a small town flavor and continue being one of America's best cities to live in.
