SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL Provided to the Planning Commission From: Estela Ramirez After Distribution of Packet To: Estela Ramirez Subject: FW:Draft Housing Element Date: Wednesday,June 22,2022 10:16:15 AM Date Distributed: 6/22/2022 ER From:Mary Gordon Sent:Tuesday,June 21,2022 4:00 PM To:Megan Campbell Subject:Draft Housing Element I do NOT suppprt putting affordable housing near the Stoneridge Mall Bart station.Doing so will just turn the "Gateway"to Pleasanton into the ugly,downtrodden homes one sees on Bart tracks backing up to the BART tracks in San Leandro,Hayward,Oskland,Fremont etc. Just because public transportation such as BART is close to the Stoneridge mall,it would be better served to have that property sold to market housing and homes built along the lines of The Preserve.Or attractive townhomes at minimum. The city should work very hard to keep thecStoneridge mall area property as an inviting gateway to the city and not a cheap/easy way out to build affordable housing.It will just be an avenue for crime&homelessness sure to come in the next 5 to 15 years if this project is approved. The better approach is to put the homes near the railroad tracks at Valley and Stanley Boulevard.Or in the backyards of the Mayor and City Council members! I do not support the ugly box like structures being built by so many developers here in Pleasanton and the Tri-Valley and Nationwide. Pleasanton really needs to ensure that we keep our aesthetic and all multiple housing units are more in keeping with the small town charm and"look"that so many of us moved here for.We do NOT want to be Bay Area"generic."
