We recognize the property owners'and developers' interests in developing the property. However, this development will do nothing to alleviate the need for affordable housing and instead will require annexation and rezoning, and will impact traffic, water and other resource use, and will result in ripping up, grading and flattening hillsides. If it proceeds, any of the proposed several million dollar homes built should be strictly limited to the relatively flat areas close to Dublin Canyon Road, and NOT on steeply sloping cattle ranch hillsides which provide not only gorgeous views for nearby homes and visitors to the area (who come down Crosby Drive just to look and take pictures), but which are precisely the type of hillsides the citizens of Pleasanton repeatedly have demanded should be protected and not developed. Pleasanton is not Dublin, should not become Dublin, and its hillsides must be protected; and that is exactly what the citizens and courts have stated. These hillsides would require significant grading and destruction and that is not what is allowed and it is not what should be allowed. Please, very careful attention must be paid to this potential development, and developers' and realtors' voices are not the only ones to be heard. Thank you.
