Commissioner Narum indicated that she has one more question about the project that was not on the list. She inquired if bicycle connections, lanes, and traffic matters have been considered in here so that people using bicycles are appropriately signed and laned. Commissioner O'Connor inquired if there are facilities for this. Commissioner Narum stated that she was thinking more about traffic circulation. Mike Tassano said yes. He stated that in the areas of A, B, C and D, the lane widths are relatively narrow, and as on several City's residential streets, these do not commonly have striped bike lanes on them. He noted that traffic along these streets does not usually go two ways at the exact same time, so cyclists usually just use the roadway there. He added that there will be bike lanes on Stanley Boulevard and on Bernal Avenue and Tawny Drive once they leave the development.. d. P12 -1778, City of Pleasanton Application for General Plan Amendments related to Alameda County's Updated Livermore Municipal Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan. This item was continued to the January 9, 2013 meeting. MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS Commissioner Pearce stated that when she met with the Greenes on Saturday, they talked about the care facility on the other side of the Greenes' property and concerns with regard to parking and traffic. She noted that she is aware the City does not have a whole lot of leeway with that project and asked if the Commission has some leeway with regard to conditioning the project regarding parking if the neighbors come to the Commission with concerns about that. Mr. Dolan asked Commissioner Pearce is she is referring to construction traffic. Commissioner Pearce said yes, but that the conversation about construction traffic also levies into a larger, actual traffic. She stated that the Greenes are extrapolating forward and they are concerned about parking and traffic moving ahead. She indicated that she advised the Greenes to come back to the Commission if there are problems, and the Commission would see what it can do. Mr. Dolan stated that the project got an approval and will be built. He indicated that at a certain point, there will be some physical limitations on what the City could do. Commissioner O'Connor stated that the City just needs to do it safely. Commissioner Pearce asked what about if they are spilling out into the street.
