Steve Belecky, 3644 Kamp Drive, objected to the reduction in the area to be studied for the East Side Study. He recapped the history regarding the development of the east side of Pleasanton and the referendum against the Ponderosa development. He said the residents would like the area to the east of California Place, the area at the end of Stoneridge, the areas further east of Mob_r, and the Busch property, to be included in the study. He felt it was evident that the residents wanted the entire area studied. He said the residents are worried about cut-through traffic; the extension of Stoneridge Drive creating a parallel freeway; Stoneridge Drive becoming a six lane roadway in a residential area; and the impacts on the residents at the end of West Las Positas. He appreciated the work that has been done. He said the residents were perplexed over the fact that there was not going to be a citizens' committee created as well as the limitation on the areas being studied. He felt the Council was not supporting the citizens and asked that the entire area be studied by a citizens' committee.
