Ms. Michelotti asked in regards to the scenarios with the bed and breakfast for 100, were smaller B&B' s considered? Ms. Belzer said no, she only considered what she thought the market would bear. Ms. Dennis asked how the infrastructure cost would be paid if a development was approved? Ms. Acosta said it could be paid through an assessment district. The city would pay for the infrastructure and then get reimbursed. Or other options might be pursued. Ms. Belzer said the City would pay for water and parks and the School District would pay for the school through school impact fees. Ms. Michelotti asked why the costs varied between the different scenarios and how the infrastructure costs were affected? Ms. Belzer said the infrastructure costs are based on approximately 200 units. Under all the scenarios the City and the School District still have to pay for their fair shares. Ms. Ayala asked at what point the developer stopped. Ms. Belzer said at the combination that brought the costs down to zero for the infrastructure. Mayor Tarver asked, if there were 170 high priced houses, would the City be able to drop its share of the infrastructure cost? Ms. Belzer said yes. The different scenarios were done because of the uncertainty of unit prices. Mayor Tarver asked what the definition was for high priced units. Ms. Belzer said the unit prices vary according to lot size and unit size, but the approximate price would be $600,000 and up. Mr. Rasmussen said there was some concern about placing high priced homes around the elementary school, community park, and in close proximity to the rock quarry. These areas would likely be mid-priced homes. Ms. Belzer said the original report did not mix high and mid-priced homes. After the analysis it is assumed that some mid priced homes needed to be included in order to make it more financially feasible. Pleasanton City Council 1/20/98 Minutes 15
