Ms. Michelotti said if someone wanted to add additional units, generally they would have to go through a conditional use permit process. Mr. Wade said another issue was the drainage that would come onto his property. Greenbriar worked out a retaining wall with a V-ditch to drain the water away. He was wondering if the Planning Department approved of this. He wanted to know if the proposed V-ditch was adequate to take away the water. Mr. Swift said those details are worked out at the final map stage. There is a condition of the PUD that all the drainage be reviewed at the tentative map stage. The drainage that is reaching San Juan Way now will be greatly diminished by the development. Mr. Wade asked if his property would be part of the grading plan process. Mr. Swift said he would be notified when the tentative map was submitted; at which time the grading would be looked at. The final design of the ditch approval would be done during the final map stage and he could be notified when this happened. David Spisak, 6415 Amber Lane, said he moved here because growth was responsible and the schools were the best in the area. He has not been disappointed. Any time there is change, there will be people who are disappointed. He applauded those making decisions for the greater good of the community and sympathized with others. Many people have worked hard to bring benefits to the school system. As long as Greenbriar has met the General Plan requirements and it is providing compensation for those directly affected; it only makes sense to take advantage of a rare opportunity to get a win/win to benefit all, including our kids for years to come. Ed McGovern, 9206 Longview Drive, supported the plan as the first step to getting the golf course property developed. He hoped that the park would be enjoyed by all residents in the City of Pleasanton. He supported and encouraged the Council to minimize the infrastructure costs that might affect the golf course property. Vanessa Kawaihau, 871 Sycamore Road, also thought a school was going to be built in the Sycamore area. She would like to know ahead of time how many homes would have detached units. She was concerned there would be 200 homes instead of the 111 homes proposed. She was led to believe by the preceding Council that any homes built on the school property would not access Sycamore Road. She spoke about the curbs that would detract from the rural nature of the neighborhood. She talked about Mr. Green accessing Sycamore Road with large farm equipment and this being a safety issue. Julie Finegan, 5456 Hopkins Court, said she was directly north of the Sycamore project. She was told when she purchased her home that there would be a low density project developed adjacent to her that would add to the value of her property. There was no mention in the Pleasanton City Council 2/17/98 Minutes 16
