Ms. Harryman said she believes this is outlined in the Commissioner's Handbook on page 22 and agreed to email this to Commissioners. She said it would be the same as writing to the Pleasanton Weekly for an editorial. It is always required to say a Commissioner announces that they are speaking or writing on their own behalf and not as a Commissioner.

She asked to see quality, stone veneer, possibly glass, but something aside from a mural or making it look cheap. Commissioner Balch said he would not support the glass and said stone veneer would be acceptable along with a trellis with attractive landscaping that is established starting with a five-gallon pot versus a one-gallon pot.
