<br />Community Facilities
<br />Dr. Ray Haskell, Superintendent, Amador High School District, requested that the higl
<br />school site indicated on the Proposed General Plan, dated November 4, 1964, as being
<br />located immediately north of the Pine Avenue extension between Interstate Route 680
<br />and Foothill Road, be relocated to a position immediately south of the Pine Avenue
<br />extension between Interstate Route 680 and Foothill Road.
<br />Dr. Haskell explained his request orally to the Planning Commission, the explanation
<br />dealing basically with attendance areas and access from proposed attendance areas
<br />via Pine Avenue.
<br />Mr. Blayney and the City staff indicated that an oversight had resulted in the
<br />omission of one public park area on the Proposed General Plan dated November 5, 1964
<br />This park, already approved as a part of Tract No. 2591, is to be located east of
<br />Hopyard Road and south of Harvest Road, immediately adjacent to the approved church
<br />site for Tract No. 2591, which is indicated as an Insitutional Use on the Proposed
<br />General Plan, and the approved swim club site within this tract.
<br />Mr. Blayney and the City staff suggested the inclusion of this park on the Plan as
<br />finally adopted.
<br />Circulation
<br />The City staff suggested that the location of the Del Valle Parkway between its
<br />intersection with First Street Stanley Blvd. on the west of Pico Avenue on the east
<br />be shifted to the north of the Arroyo del Valle, with a bridge indicated in the
<br />vicinity of Pico Avenue.
<br />This suggestion was based upon considerable previous study given this matter by the
<br />staff as a result of various previous requests of the Planning Commission.
<br />Mr. Blayney concurred with this suggestion.
