EXHIBIT D <br />Provided for the December 15, 2022, Joint Planning Commission and City Council meeting <br />Redistributed for the January 11, 2023, Planning Commission meeting <br />From:email@email.com <br />Sent:Tuesday, September 27, 2022 11:23 AM <br />To:Shweta Bonn <sbonn@cityofpleasantonca.gov> <br />Subject:RE: Stoneridge Mall Project Follow-Up <br />Shweta, <br />Thank you for sending the PowerPoint. My thoughts on the Framework are as follows. <br />From what I learned at the meeting it appears that for multiple reasons a good portion of the mall will <br />remain, although it may be reconfigured to various extents depending on the overall framework for the <br />project. So many of the key decisions to be made are regarding the environment surrounding the mall <br />that may encompass additional housing, retail, theatre(s), restaurants, gyms/recreation, etc. One of the <br />things which makes Pleasanton uniquely great is the current downtown area, so I agree with the <br />statement made in the meeting that whatever is done the environment should complement the <br />downtown feeling to preserve and extend that which is so special about Pleasanton. <br />green is good Pleasanton already has a great assortment of parks, along with an increasing number of <br />bicycle paths.- <br />brick and mortar, and we already have a restaurant/shopping oriented main street. <br />Therefore my preference is for the pedestrian-oriented plaza, but executed in way that, as mentioned <br />above, would uniquely extend the good feeling people have about downtown. My thought is to have a <br />walking-friendly, open, attractive and vehicle-selection of unique retail, <br />gallery and restaurant options where people could spend a few hours because, other than downtown on <br />no-It can even include a bandstand <br />similar to what we have ay Wayside Park. <br />-- <br />but still has a friendly, approachable ambience. <br />around here, but the Phoenix/Scottsdale or Santa Fe areas come to mind <br />as regions with many destination spots that embody a blend of the old with the new. <br />d build <br />Thank you, <br />- Jeff <br />From:Shweta Bonn <sbonn@cityofpleasantonca.gov> <br />Sent:Tuesday, September 27, 2022 10:38 AM <br />To:email@email.com <br />Subject:RE: Stoneridge Mall Project Follow-Up
