too fast. She thought that speed bumps should be used to slow traffi down. She also thought that if the project does go in, that it should be lowered to fiv units. Mrs. Walsh questioned Mr. Swift as to the price of the units, how th sales would be handled, and what the qualifications would be for purchase of a horn. Mr. Swift stated that the selling price has not yet been determined, and it also has not bee decided who will be qualified to purchase the units. No decisions can be made until they ow whether there will be five or seven units. He pointed out that this all must go before th City Council for final approval. He further noted that City Council had established an affo dable housing program with a Task Force Committee to pursue it. He stated there are diffe ent categories of priorities that also must be dealt with for different buyers. Robert Cordtz, 262 W. Angela, said he is a member of the Affordab e Housing Committee and spoke in favor of the project. He felt that all the questions that s. Walsh had would be answered in the near future. Mr. Goldsworthy returned to the podium. He reiterated they concur with the Conditions of Approval, but had no further comments at this time. Commissioner Wright questioned Mr. Goldsworthy in regard to Ms. Walsh's concerns that people in the proposed project would be able to look into her bedro window. Mr. Goldsworthy pointed out on the plans that the nearest unit window ould be at least 140 ft. from Ms. Walsh's house. Commissioner Mahern asked further questions about the affordabilit of the project and how it will be financed, etc. Dick Howard, 7750 Country Lane, represented the Rotary Club. H stated the club is attempting to address in a small way some of the affordable housing problems that Pleasanton faces. They had hoped to do a service project with the City, some at like a housing project that the Rotary Club in Oakland has done with their city. H stated that the City is working with them and feel very strongly that it can be done. How ver, Mr. Howard said it is not their intention to get into a controversy with the neighborh over a project and hoped things could be worked out agreeably. He stated the selling rice will be determined by the City. In further response to questions, Mr. Howard stated that according zoning they could even put nine units on the site, but felt that was definitely too dense. Th y thought by reducing the nine to seven units it would allow for much more landscaping. r. Howard said the job will be done by a regular contractor, Cliff Casterson, who was pres nt. In response to Commissioner Wright's question, Mr. Howard said they will have t hire a construction crew but that Rotary Club members will work as much as possible.
