added that the traffic and the traffic control as well as the parking are issues, but he is <br />certainly willing to support a small home daycare by State law, but not a large one. <br />Commissioner Ritter moved to deny the appeal of Case P14 -0191, thereby upholding <br />the denial of the Zoning Administrator of a Conditional Use Permit for a Large Family <br />Daycare at 4034 San Giorgio Court. <br />Commissioner Allen seconded the motion. <br />ROLL CALL VOTE: <br />AYES: Commissioners Allen, Balch, O'Connor, and Ritter <br />NOES: None <br />ABSTAIN: <br />None <br />RECUSED: <br />Commissioner Piper <br />ABSENT: <br />None <br />Resolution No. PC- 2014 -33 denying Case P14 -0191 was entered and adopted as <br />motioned. <br />Commissioner Piper returned to the dais. <br />7. MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS <br />Bernal Property and 1 -680 <br />Commissioner Ritter stated that he spoke with Mr. Weinstein earlier today regarding <br />some feedback he has been receiving from residents regarding the Bernal property <br />traffic and the 1 -680 interchange with the new housing coming in there. He noted that <br />he is aware this is more about Caltrans issues and asked Mr. Weinstein if he could <br />discuss the plans. <br />Mr. Weinstein replied that he could give the Commissioners a quick update, noting that <br />it is also a timely topic as City residents have spent a good amount of time at that <br />intersection, especially with the Alameda County Fair happening recently. He indicated <br />that there are actually two projects that are occurring at that intersection: the first is a <br />City project, and the objectives are to improve levels of service, increase circulation <br />and safety, and also to improve the bicycle and pedestrian environment at that 1 -680 <br />northbound and southbound intersection area. He then briefly described the <br />components of the project: <br />• One of the westbound through -lanes east of the 1 -680 northbound on -ramp on <br />Bernal Avenue will be converted into a shared through /right -turn lane to reduce <br />those westbound queues that has been occurring, especially lately. <br />• One of the westbound through -lanes on Bernal Avenue, east of the 1 -680 <br />southbound onramp will be converted to a second left -hand turn lane to reduce <br />vehicle queues. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 9, 2014 Page 12 of 14 <br />
