Minutes Planning Commission. 12/12/84 that time that equal widening on each side will be adopted. To change this would require a general plan amendment. chairman Doherty reiterated that the extension has been on the General Plan for years and has been no secret. Mr. Warnick further stated that it is possible that the Del Valle extension would be done in more than one phase as traffic warrants. Mr. Peterson, 4013 Stanley Boulevard lives next to the Auf der Maur property. He realizes the road must someday be widened and development will occur, but would like it deferred as long as possible. He had concerns with the potential noise problem from Stanley Boulevard. He has the only house facing this project. He didn't want to be exposed to the recreational area of the new development. The recreation area as proposed will be adjacent to existing bedrooms. He expressed concern with the height of the fencing. He felt the size of the units were too small.

She felt development should be halted until Del Valle Parkway is completed. It currently takes her five minutes to get out of her driveway when traffic is busy.

However, their project would not be constructed for 1-1/2 to 2 years by the time they get allocation. They are prepared to dedicate property for the widening of the street and post a performance bond. They do not necessarily have to widen the street with the project. If the property is needed by the City is less than that which would be set aside they would landscape the area. He was very sorry he couldn't get ahold of Mr. Leone.
