gy$~sAN~°y CITY of PLEASANT~N <br />~~ '~~- <br />`~~-*~° Planning Commission <br />'~J~M^D f <br />I MINUTES ~OF REGULAR MEETING. <br />Da18 : October 3, 1972 <br />Time: 8:0o P.M. <br />PIOCe; Pleasanton Justice Court <br />The staff was further instructed to <br />write a letter to the County recom- <br />mending that they proceed with <br />Phase II of their ridge and park <br />plan. This study consists of cost <br />analysis and alternatives for develo <br />ment of such a park. <br />Secretary Castro indicated that the <br />technical staffs met prior to the <br />public hearing and the consensus of <br />opinion was that they would prefer <br />that the Commission endorse one of <br />the plans and everybody was more in <br />favor of the open space plan. This <br />matter would then be referred to <br />Alameda County. Hopefully, after <br />that study is completed, the City of <br />Pleasanton could then relate that <br />study to their General Plan review. <br />It was hoped that Alameda County <br />would coordinate all these efforts. <br />Commissioner McLain stated that the <br />big pressure was from the property <br />owners who were in the position of <br />paying taxes on land which they could <br />not develop, yet may not be purchased <br />by the County either. <br />Commissioner Wood remarked that the <br />',downtown area is beginning to look <br />!,very nice, as more merchants are <br />'beginning to abide by the City's <br />..wishes regarding its signing program. <br />The Chairman felt that perhaps the <br />joint study session of Council and <br />Commission cleared up a lot of <br />problems and misunderstandings. <br />-6- <br />
