MINUTES SPECIAL MEETING PLANNING COMMISSION Pleasanton Council Chambers 30 West Angela Street June 29, 1977 4 :30 P.M. CALL TO ORDER The special meeting of the Planning Commission was called to order by Acting Chairman Wood. ROLL CALL Commissioners Present: Jamieson, Shepherd, Acting Chairman Wood Commissioners Absent: Doherty and Chairman Butler Staff Members Present: Robert Harris, Director of Planning; Harvey Levine, Deputy City Attorney; Yvonne McFadden, Recording Secretary. Councilmembers Ken Mercer and Frank Brandes arrived at 4:40 P.M. PUBLIC HEARINGS - NEW BUSINESS Z-77-96, Tri-Cities Ambulance, Inc. - application for a home occupa- tion permit to operate an ambulance service out of a residence located at 2297 Tanager Drive, Pleasanton; zoning for the property is R-1-6500 (Single Family) District. Secretary Harris explained that although the ambulance service had 90 days to relocate from their location at 6264 Guyson Court, they had received an eviction notice from the landlord effective July 1, 1977. They had secured the location oil Tanager Drive and requested the Commission to help them expedite their permit to locate there. Since there was a real estate sign on the property, Secretary Harris clari- fied that he had talked to the real estate agent and learned that the new owner had arranged to rent the house to Tri-Cities Ambulance. Staff felt that this location was about as good a residential location for such a service as could be found in Pleasanton. Recommendation was for approval subject to the five conditions in the staff report. Commissioner Jamieson wondered about holding meetings at 4:30 P.M., when the majority of the male occupants of the area might not be able to attend. Acting Chairman Wood thought it was a point well taken. Commissioner Shepherd, however, could find nothing wrong with setting meetings during the afternooon. Secretary Harris indicated the staff had received four inquiries. Two are opposed, one is concerned but felt with the proper controls, would be acceptable. Another inquiry was from a woman who came into the office, but she had no problems after reading the staff recommendations. Secretary Harris described the routes the ambulance service would use per staff recommendations.
