Commissioner Balch re- stated Mr. Bauer's statement that the Chrisman project roads agreement for 25 percent existed and was expanded. He asked if staff knows about this. Mr. Dolan replied that there is a distinction between a property being exempt from Measure PP and being given an exemption from Measure PP. He stated that he did not work on the Chrisman project, but it was exempt from Measure PP. Ms. Harryman stated that the Chrisman project pre -dated Measure PP. She noted that this project was on the Council's Agenda at its last meeting, which Mr. Bauer attended, and this discussion took place at that meeting as well. She affirmed that Measure PP was approved after the Chrisman project was first proposed and approved. Commissioner Balch stated, for clarification purposes, that the project was fully approved and ready to break ground, and then Measure PP or Measure QQ came along; that the project was already out of the gate and it cannot be brought back.

He noted that the neighborhood does not always agree, and sometimes something does not happen because there is no agreement. Mr. Tassano stated that the City actually had a traffic - calming program enacted on Junipero Street, although it pre -dated some of the nice tools the City now has like speed bumps and radar speed signs. He noted that staff and the neighborhood did not really reach agreement on what to implement, and the neighborhood contacted him again, and staff came back and they reached agreement. Mr. Dolan stated that it is also important to point out that as a condition of project approval, knowing that it was pointed out that our traffic - calming program is under - funded, there is a condition that has been applied to this project where they would have to contribute towards the traffic - calming with the idea that, depending on PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, June 24, 2015 Page 28 of 54
