Mr. Levine said that the RAP Review Committee liked of the 10/8/81 staff report and didn't like the 'fi serve' approach. Commissioner Lindsey asked if any given to energy conservation. Mr. Levine said that heart of their desire but City Council doesn't show in that aspect one way or the other and that energy could be accomplished in another manner. 'Attachment 3' rst-come, first- consideration was matter was the too much interest conservation Review of Attachment 3 Mr. Levine stated that the 2% growth rate should be looked at to determine whether or not another figure would be appropriate or how the 2% growth rate would be implemented. Ted Fairfield, 5510 Sunol Boulevard, stated that there was a dis- crepancy at a RAP Committee meeting concerning the 2% figure. He asked for clarification inasmuch as some people thought the 2% growth rate related to the number of structures, others thought it related to the current population, etc. and stated this could make a big difference in the number of units allowed; anywhere from 200 to 600 per year. He urged the Commission to determine which figure the 2$ growth rate related to. Brian Swift, Assistant City Attorney, said that as the ordinance is now written it relates to the population and General Plan of 1976 - cumulative 2% every year. Commissioner Wilson indicated the 2% figure should relate to the actual population, cumulative. Mr. Levine indicated that the 2% figure originally came about as a result of sewer capacity problems and that the City's obligations concerning the outcome of this problem will end June 1982. Commissioner Lindsey indicated he prefers that the figure stay at 2%, reviewed by City Council annually. Mr. Levine reviewed the General Plan's intent with regard to the benchmarks 1986 and 1996 so that the City would have a continuous 2% growth figure over the years and RAP was a way in which to control this. A motion was made by Commissioner Lindsey that the current rate con- tinue as in the past, not to exceed 2% of the 1976 population roughly and that this percentage be reviewed by City Council annually. This motion died for lack of a second. Commissioner Wilson made a motion that the growth be limited to 2% of the actual, official population figures so that the City Council doesn't find themselves changing the 2% figure to 3%, 4%, or 5% and stated that 2% of the 1976 population figures is too small. Iie said if sewers are available, 2% of the current population would be sufficient to keep everything good. This motion was seconded by Chairperson Getty. -2- .. ,.
