<br />~ Page 15 - fourth paragraph - first sentence: Chairman Mahern amended it to read: <br />.She had come into the meeting prepared to postpone the project. Even though <br />she felt that staff has done exactly what the Commission asked for, she is now <br />convinced that they could go forward, while at the same time she is not saying she <br />could approve a final plan." <br /> <br />Page 16 - first paragraph -Second and third sentences: Commissioner McGuirk <br />amended it to read: "He felt it absolutely necessary to reserve a school site of 1 0 <br />acres or more, but if that is done, he could not see all potential school traffic going <br />down Junipero, left on Sunol, then left up the east/west connector or Ventana Hills <br />to Independence Drive. To get to a potential school site, other streets from the <br />Mission Park neighborhood would have to be opened up." <br /> <br />Commissioner Hovingh noted that the public record should reflect that staff had <br />done exactly what the Commission asked for, and that the Commission apologized <br />to staff for "sandbagging" their recommendation. He also felt that Mr. Swift is <br />doing an excellent job and he would support a recommendation for a raise in <br />salary. <br /> <br />MEETING OPEN FOR ANY MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE TO ADDRESS THE <br />PLANNING COMMISSION ON ANY ITEM WHICH IS NOT ALREADY ON THE <br />AGENDA <br /> <br />Stan Rathbone, 325 Ray Street, commented on Councilman Mohr's remarks at the <br />previous Council meeting regarding the quantity of Pleasanton's groundwater <br />reserves.

Mr. Rathbone strongly disagreed with <br />that viewpoint and felt that was courting disaster. He felt it is ridiculous to keep <br />putting in more new houses with the water situation as it is. He felt the City is <br />putting itself into a perilous condition and will regret it at some point in time. <br /> <br />REVISIONS AND OMISSIONS TO THE AGENDA <br /> <br />Mr. Swift requested that RZ-91-2, City of Pleasanton, be continued to 5-22-91. <br />The Commission agreed to this request. <br /> <br />MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS <br /> <br />1 .
