Resolution No. 91-78 development of a logical contiguous site such as the Bonde parcel within the City's developed area is preferable to sites which are further out on the fringe areas of the City and further from adequate roads and utilities. Finally, the payment of the cancellation fee (12.5% of the fair market value) will generate government revenues from the Bonde property well in excess of property taxes which would have been received from the property. A portion of the cancellation fees is directed to the Farmlands Mapping Account of the state General Fund and another portion of the cancellation fee is directed to the state soil conservation program. B. That there is no proximate noncontracted land which is both available and suitable for the use to which it is proposed the contracted land be put, or, that development of the contracted land would provide more contiguous patterns of urban development than development of proximate noncontracted land. This is the same finding as the earlier finding under paragraph 13 above. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: section 1. Council approves tentative cancellation of Williamson Act Agricultural Preserve Contract 1974-3 under the provisions of California Government Code section 51282 removing 104 acres of land located along the northerly and southerly sides of Bernal Avenue, approximately 2,250 feet southeasterly of Sunol Boulevard, subject to the following conditions: A. That the tentative cancellation of the Agricultural Preserve Contract on the subject property does not constitute any type of development plan approval by the City and that any development of the property shall be subject to the standard development review procedures of the City. B. That the City Clerk be directed and authorized to record a certificate of Tentative Cancellation for the property. 7
