Regarding Condition No. 11 they aske that 20' be allowed instead of 25' or as otherwise approved by the City Engineer. He felt that Condition No. 3 would kill the project if imposed because of the delicate balance economically. The annexation process would have to be cancelled and the area would then not be in the City. He addressed Pang's traffic report as sited by staff. He felt that mitigations of this project including diversion of traffic to Stanley Boulevard, the project would improve Bernal Avenue from Tawny to Vineyard Avenue and eliminate the 'country' configuration of the roadway.

He stated that the Pang Traffic Report did not consider the creation of a park in this area. This may reduce traffic because people would use this park instead of others. The Mike Valley project and Kottinger project traffic reductions are not assumed in the Pang Report. He reviewed other projects in the area.
