Paee 17 Commissioner Blank pointed out the language, "Encourage the location of a `- UC Extension facility in Pleasanton," followed by "Facilitate free or low-cost wireless." He inquired what the difference was between encouraging and facilitating an item. Ms. Stern noted that they could be similar and that an example of facilitating could be in developing a contract. Commission Peazce believed it was more neutral than facilitating. Commissioner Blank believed that both items should be both encouraged and facilitated. Commissioner Roberts believed that it was decided that the free wireless broadband would only be available in public places. Ms. Stern noted that was being debated by the EVC, and that they wished to be consistent but also explore other azeas in the future. Paees 18 - 22 There were no comments.
