and odor were difficult to accomplish and that hardness was being addressed by the Zone 7 Wellhead Demineralization Project. Page VI-10 Commissioner Blank would like to see some description and awazeness of the flood area if the Del Valle reservoir were to give way. Ms. Stern replied that was listed under the Public Safety section. Commissioner Blank believed that would be a good subject for a public awazeness program. Commissioner Blank suggested the following language to be added, "In the future, the City will continue to cooperate with Zone 7 to improve and maintain the flood control system ... and continue to increase public awareness around this issue." The Commission concurred with that addition. Part VI-13 Commissioner Fox expressed concern about Pleasanton's rating of 8 out of 10 (1 being best) by FEMA. In response to her inquiry regarding whether the General Plan contained a map of the flood plains, several Commissioners confirmed that it did. Commissioner Fox believed the City should state a policy to improve the FEMA rating. Ms. Stern advised that should be in the Public Safety Element, but would confer with Mr. Cusenza to craft language to include in this element. Mr. Cusenza believed the "8" rating was due to the hundred-yeaz flood and added that Zone 7 was in charge of the operation and maintenance of the arroyos. He noted that Zone 7 was in the middle of a stream management master plan and that an environmental document was being prepazed for that. He noted that the most cost-effective and appropriate approach with respect to the hundred-year flood would be to use the Chain of Lakes, which would relieve much of the area in Pleasanton. Part VI-16 Commissioner Fox believed that part of Ruby Hill was served by the Livermore School District. Commissioner Roberts noted that the affected families go to schools in Pleasanton but cannot vote for the Pleasanton school boazd. Commissioner Fox wished to address the paragraph about the School District projecting a school enrollment decrease, which projected its greatest overall enrollment for 2007 dropping off due to aging population trends. Commissioner Roberts did not believe that pazagraph should be included. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES February 22, 2006 Page 15 of 21
