BALLOT ARGUEMENT IN SUPPORT OF THE BERNAL PROPERTY PHASE II LAND USE PLAN A "yes" vote for Measure X provides unique opportunities for Pleasanton residents of all ages. The 318- acre Bernal Community Park has been designed around a framework of woodlands, meadows and wetlands. The scenic Pleasanton ridge view corridor and the arroyo natural riparian habitats are protected. Trails and paths intertwine throughout the park and connect to regional trails. Cultural and rural heritage will be showcased through agricultural and Native American historical reflective areas. Open space will dominate the grand park concept. Community facilities such as lighted sports fields, an outdoor amphitheater, children's play areas, outdoor basketball courts, a teen/community center and cultural arts facilities including a theater, art classrooms, gallery and rehearsal space will be clustered to maximize open space and the sharing of facilities, while minimizing infrastructure costs. This vision for the 318-acre Bernal Community Park is reflected in the Bernal Property Phase II Land Use Plan. This plan was approved unanimously by the City Council on May 16, 2006. There has been significant involvement from various stakeholders throughout the community including the Parks and Recreation Commission, Planning Commission, Civic Arts Commission and Youth Commission. Members of various sports groups, agricultural clubs and city task forces, as well as the general public, have also provided input on the development of this plan. These stakeholders represent a cross section of our community and are committed to the fulfillment of this vision. Make the Bernal Community Park a reality. Vote "yes" on Measure X. NOTE: LANGUAGE FOR FURTHER COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Your Pleasanton City Council is very proud and excited to present to you the Bernal Property Phase II Land Use Plan for your ratification and approval.
