Dave Brown, Reynolds and Brown, addressed the Board. He stated he agrees with 55 of the 57 points made in the staff report but would like Condition No. 7 changed to read Level E and the last sentence stating "once the Hopyard Road connection has been constructed, development on the Reynolds and Brown property may continue as long as service Level D is not reached at the Johnson Drive/Hopyard Road, Hopyard Road/Meyers Road, Johnson Drive/Stoneridge Drive, or Stoneridge/ Drive/Hopyard Road intersections or the Hopyard Road/I-580 inter- change" be totally eliminated as this would in essence, eliminate the project, in his opinion. Mr. Brown also stated that Condition No. 4 needed modification changing the punctuation and in addition, would like the last sentence changed to read "This work shall be done prior to issuance of a building permit or in conjunction with the construction for the first building on the subject property and that the City Engineer will have the authority to modify these requirements based on further input from the developer and the developer's traffic engineer." Mr. Brown further stated he would like to see Conditions No's. 15, 16 and 21 to read as follows: No. 15: That the developer be aware that the City has the power to reduce the intensity of commercial land uses on the subject property if trip generation in northern Pleasanton exceeds that assumed in the North Pleasanton Traffic Study, or what- ever traffic study is used to establish the Assessment District mentioned in Condition No. 8; and No. 16: That the main road on subject property (north/south road) shall be 48 feet not 48 ft. to 52 ft.); that the auxiliary road be widened from 40 ft. to 44 ft., and that the bikeway/pedestrian path shall be a minimum of 6-1/2 ft. (not 8 ft.) in width; and No. 21: That the interior streets and the 33 ft. wide landscape easement shall be installed prior to or in conjunction with the first building erected on subject property. (Adding) Where it appears that future construction will damage the landscaping, its installation may be deferred to a later date. Mr. Brown further stated that concerning Condition No. 7 referring to the Meyers connection that it would probably come about, however, if Meyers doesn't develop, staff has asked Reynolds and Brown to connect the street and he had concerns with traffic levels and whether they should be D or E. He presented a letter from the traffic consultant to the Commissioners for their review stating Level D is acceptable and that Reynolds and Brown believes Level D is fine before requiring mitigation measures. Chairperson Wilson asked Mr. Harris whether Level E or D would be appropriate. Mr. Harris stated that perhaps D is acceptable. He stated most people do not want to set through one cycle of a signal before going and that is what Level D means. -9-
