<br />RESPONSE TO STEVE BROZOSKY'S LETTER DATED MAY 20, 2006 <br /> <br />Staff responses to the followinq comments are italicized and in red. <br />May 23, 2005 <br /> <br />May 20, 2006 <br /> <br />This set of comments supersedes my previous comments from the prior Planning <br />Commission Meeting. I believe some of my concerns were addressed while talking with <br />the developer. <br /> <br />I will not be attending the Planning Commission meeting but wanted to get my comments in <br />being I am at the property adjacent to these plans. <br /> <br />Below are my comments on the development plans that will be at the Planning Commission <br />hearing. Could you also distribute this to the Commissioners. <br /> <br />Issue 1 - EVA <br />PUD-54 shows a potential EVA going straight across my property as part of attachment 11. <br />Even though the staff report indicates this as "Staff-Recommended EVA Alignment", I <br />understand this alignment is no longer Staffs recommendation. I am not open to this new <br />alignment option. Besides it being significantly different then the Specific Plan, it would slice my <br />property in two, look visual unappealing to my family, be quite visible from Vineyard Avenue and <br />Livermore, and would be an attractive nuisance for people thinking this is a hiking trail. <br /> <br />You are correct that the alignment shown in the May 10, 2006 and the May 24, 2006 staff report <br />is incorrect. The proposed EVA alignment across the Brozosky property as shown on <br />Allachment11 is no longer considered a preferred alternative. <br /> <br />The Specific Plan shows the EVA this nicking the corner of my property, while the Tentative <br />Vesting Map for Silver Oak Estates - Tract 7399 shows the EVA connecting to the Berlogar <br />property at a more Southerly connection without going through my property. If the EVA location <br />is to be changed in the Reznick development, the Vesting Tentative Map for Tract 7399 - Silver <br />Oak Estates will need to be modified. <br /> <br />The alignment shown on Tract Map 7399 is not considered any more feasible than the <br />alignment shown on the Specific Plan Land Use Map in that it would need to have excessive <br />grading across the terrain, would be costly, require deep cuts in the ridge, and result in grades <br />too steep to meet the maximum slopes dictated by the fire fighting equipment. I believe that the <br />wording of the condition of approval for TR 7399 (below) would probably avoid the need to <br />modify that Tract Map approval. <br />
