She said joint sessions were conducted several times where a <br />preferred land use was agreed upon. They ran model results for the preferred land use <br />plan and the working draft circulation network and reviewed the first lot of results in <br />January 2007. The City Council then directed staff to prepare additional analysis including <br />all three land use plans and to analyze them both with and without the Stoneridge Drive <br />extension, and results had been discussed at the joint session. <br />Ms. Stern said the results were for build-out of the General Plan for the traffic modeling, <br />meaning they are looking at the construction and occupation of all buildings that are <br />allowed under the new General Plan, all roadway improvements assumed as part of the <br />model network, and build-out of regional neighbors' General Plans and of the County. <br />City Council Minutes 4 May 1, 2007 <br />
