~. Commissioner Gibbs expressed a choice for the varied exteriors. Co®issioner Antonini expressed a desire to keep at least the two exteriors. Vice Chairman Pona referred to the advantage of maintaining only the one exterior from a financial savings viewpoint, while conceding that the variety of exteriors would be more attractive. The green areas would be maintained by the management with an incentive program for the occupants. This was called "incentive maintenance." The money saved in the project by having the individual occupants maintain their own lawn areas would be deposited in an account. When the resident left the project, he would receive the monies plus interest. Vice Chairman Pons inquired if the units would contain dishwashers. The reply was that it would depend on the price of the townhouses. The Planning Director, in going back to the type of exteriors, favored the Spanish throughout, or failing that, would lean toward the California Rustic. Dr. Long then requested the Commissioners' feelings as to how his group should continue in this project and requested copies of the minutes which he felt might be of some assistance to him. Mr. Gene Rega, Councilman, was present and made reference to the density of the park area in the vicinity of Pleasanton Greens. In considering the change of the park designation, perhaps other designations should also be considered at the time of the change. Vice Chairman Pons advised Chat as far as the site plan is concertned, he concurred with it personally. The other Coamisaionera expressed a like viewpoint. The question was also asked if this item had been referred to the Parks and Recreation Commission. Ttie reply was no. In their viewpoint, the Commissioners felt the plan was a valid one and that they liked it. d. RZ-69-12.
