3. MEETING OPEN FOR ANY MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE TO <br />ADDRESS THE PLANNING COMMISSION ON ANY ITEM WHICH IS <br />NOT ALREADY ON THE AGENDA. <br />Becky Dennis, 838 Gray Fox Circle, distributed a copy of a demand letter from Public <br />Advocates on behalf of Citizens for a Caring Community. The letter outlines concerns <br />regazding Pleasanton's appazent inability to meet its affordable housing goals, especially <br />in the low- and very-low-income levels. She realized the Planning Commission's ability <br />to address this issue was limited and that growth management and the housing cap <br />limited the City's ability as well. She noted that the Planning Commission was able to <br />initiate rezoning and cited Program 19.1 of the Housing Element, which called for <br />rezoning in the City. She believed a contingency plan would be helpful to the City. <br />Chairperson Arkin suggested that the Commission discuss agendizing this item for a <br />future meeting and that Matters Initiated by Commission Members be placed next on the <br />agenda. <br />7. MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS <br />Rezoning and the Housing Element <br />Chairperson Arkin requested comment regazding agendizing this item for a future hearing <br />date. <br />Commissioner Blank agreed to hearing this issue on a future agenda; however, he would <br />like the item to be appropriately prioritized after other items have been addressed that the <br />Commission has been looking forward to and because of the lazge number of projects that <br />aze before the Commission. There was consensus by the Commissioners. <br />4. REVISIONS AND OMISSIONS TO THE AGENDA <br />Ms. Decker recommended several revisions to the agenda.
