Beaudin: There's a lease issue and the applicant can better speak to the final three, but I think the idea is that there'd be continued use of the driving range for this period of time... do you want to add to that Larissa? Seto: If the development was going to develop Phase 2 now, the netting would have to be a lot higher to protect those homes because those homes are closer to the driving range. Commissioner Nagler: So it's an angle thing. I get it, okay. Seto: There wasn't an interest right now in putting up a golf ball net that might be 80 feet or higher. Commissioner Nagler: Presumably though there will be a different Planning Commission in place 18 years from now to decide what these three homes should look like, but that's fine. Seto: They would be covered by this PUD design, that's part of the phasing where they wanted the guarantee for the design going forward. Commissioner Nagler: Okay, just a couple of other quick questions —the allowance by the Alameda County Fairgrounds to bisect their property at the sewer line —that approval is secured? There's no doubt that the County fair board will agree to that? Soo: The County board reviewed it and did give conceptual approval. I could have the applicant further elaborate on that, but they did review it. Also the board's meeting minutes are included as part of the packet. Commissioner Nagler: I'm just wondering from a legal perspective how secure we are Seto: Well, the easement has not been granted yet so it isn't final, but we are relying on the representations that they've made to date which are positive for it to proceed. Commissioner Nagler: So let me just ask, if this is approved and then the easement is not ultimately awarded for some reason, what happens then? Seto: I would imagine they would need to redesign the utilities to make the sewer work or put in different structures or equipment if they ended up needing a different alignment. Commissioner Nagler: As I understand it, there was an alternate design which was problematic to at least one of the homeowners and that's how they've come to this design. Is it possible that we could ask that the matter come back to the Planning Commission if that easement is not awarded? Weinstein: Yes, it would probably be considered, depending on the extent of the utility changes from this current plan to what ended up being proposed, in the form of a Planned Unit Development Modification. If it is a Major Modification we would take it PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 23, 2016 Page 5 of 46
