across the properties ai he access points to the t i.l, water supply and distribution system. Regarding the parkway design, Mr. Alan Campbell, Assistant City Manager, spoke advising the Commissioners of the originally approved design, the added cost factors to change the design, the problems of tying in the revised section with the originally approved section. Commissioner Doherty remarked about the past problems on proposed projects for the property and the great efforts made by both the residents and the de- veloper in attempting to resolve these problems through compromise. He commended both groups. Commissioner Shepherd had two concerns 1) trail system and 2) basic concept of the parkway. He felt the trail system would be a problem area to the City, felt the City would be better off without it. He thought the project should go all the way to the Arroyo and locating a park there should take place some day, when the City can afford it. Regarding the parkway, from an aesthetics standpoint, it is fine, except that from a safety standpoint, it may not be. He maintained his original position of relocating the park- way. Chairman Butler stated that it was gratifying to see the amount of efforts which had been expended between the developer and the residents on the Del Valle Parkway in attempting to work out their differences. There was some discussion regarding backup fencing for protection for the future homeowners, but Mr. Harris stated that the major design consideration for this development was the open vista feature. Resolution No. 1488 was entered and adopted recommending to the City Council approval of PUD-76-3, subject to conditions in the staff report from the Planning Department staff report, and certain modi`fcati~ons to the Janaury 31, 1977 memorandum. Roll Call Vote Resolution: Wood Seconded: Doherty Ayes: Doherty, Jamieson, Noes: None Absent: None Abstain: None Shepherd, Wood, Chairman Butler At the end of the roll call vote, Chairman Butler stated for the record, that it was his personal feeling that the original adopted parkway design is a good one. He was very reluctant to go along with this proposed change, apart from the fact that it was arrived at in the spirit of compromise between the residents already living there and Morrison Homes. He would have preferred to see the standard design. He emphasized that it should not be taken as acceptance by the Planning Commission that the standard parkway section is to be completely abandoned for ias entire length., Commissioner Doherty left the meeting at 10:25 P.M.
