17. Public Comment Carmen Rivera-Hendrickson expressed concerns with the City's handling of ADA issues. She noted the need to install roll-in showers for people with disabilities at St. Anton Apartments and stated that every disability is different and must be handled differently. She requested the City do more towards helping the disabled in relation to new construction. Mayor Thorne reported the issue is not on tonight's agenda, but requested that staff consider the matter. Angelina Summers stated that any parking space becomes a legal parking space for anyone having a disability placard. She reported having trouble printing City Council agendas from the City's website both from home and the City Library. Julie Testa spoke regarding the importance of maintaining a balance of housing to schools. She reported that thousands of housing units are being built without consideration of building new schools and that existing schools are overcrowded. Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to address the City Council, Mayor Thorne closed public comments. PUBLIC HEARINGS AND OTHER MATTERS 18.

Adam Weinstein, Planning Manager, presented details of the staff report, focusing on issues that have received the most attention. He addressed the project site, existing conditions, property history, inconsistencies related to zoning and the General Plan, first Ponderosa submittal, current site plan, conceptual interior streetscape, proposed clubhouse and restroom, continuation of sidewalk on Valley Trails Drive, Valley Trails Park improvements, General Plan amendment relative to public and institutional uses, alternatives that could be built without a General Plan amendment, public interest in developing General Plan-compliant alternatives on the site, operation/maintenance cost options for the public restroom, clubhouse use parameters, Planning Commission recommendations, Planning Commission concerns, final points/clarifications, summary and recommendations. In response to Councilmember Pentin's question regarding use of the clubhouse, Mr. Weinstein reported specific provisions can be dictated in the Use Agreement and the neighborhood will not need to create a Home Owners Association (HOA) to enter into the Use Agreement. Daniel Sodergren, City Attorney, reported the Use Agreement will be developed after the HOA is formed and the Use Agreement will be between the HOA and the City and will dictate times when the HOA must make it available to residents of the neighborhood, including maintenance and insurance requirements. He added that residents would be able to rent the clubhouse and the Use Agreement would outline the terms of use. City Council Minutes Page 3 of 8 May 2,2017
