MATTERS INITIATED BY COUNCIL Councilmember Brown noted Pleasanton does not have a liaison to BART and inquired that once City Council has determined its priorities, that it consider forming a BART Liaison Committee in order to address issues of concern expressed by the public. Mayor Thorne agreed, noting it would be particularly important if AB 2923 is approved. Councilmember Pentin also agreed and asked that staff include information for other cities that have liaisons to BART. City Manager Fialho suggested bringing the matter to the City Council in December as part of the Council's committee assignments. In response to Councilmember Brown's inquiry regarding Water and Sewer Connection Fees, City Manager Fialho reported it will be identified as a City Council priority in the next two year work plan. COUNCIL REPORTS Mayor Thorne reported attending the League of California Cities Board of Directors meeting as well as the General Conference in Long Beach. He congratulated Councilmember Pentin for being elected as Second Vice President of the East Bay Division. Councilmember Brown reported working at East Bay Stand Down, an event which provides the veteran community a variety of services. Councilmember Pentin reported a team has been deployed from the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department to the Carolinas to assist victims of Hurricane Florence. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:49 p.m. The Council extended a tribute to our nation's men and women serving in the military. We wish to honor the memories of those who have died in past wars in defense of our country, including those who have died in the current conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria.
