Ms. Varela said the referendum is for an 89 home development by the DeSilva Group on <br /> Foothill Drive because of concerns with traffic, schools, and the fact that a developer was <br /> allowed to increase the density. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarver said that has to do with Item 6a, the application to LAFCO for the <br />annexation of the property. Staff is recommending that Item 6a be continued to the February 16 <br />Council meeting because the ordinance is not yet effective. <br /> <br /> Gary Fletcher, 4042 Muirwood Drive, thanked the volunteers participating in the <br />referendum drive. He said the process is a rewarding experience. He was surprised at the <br />number of people that were unaware of the development. <br /> <br /> Tom Benigno, Citizen Voice, 6546 Cottonwood Drive, Dublin, said the Farmer's Market <br />Enforcement Agency has only one officer to cover the whole state. He described some of the <br />violations that have happened in the last year at farmers' markets throughout the state. He said <br />some City Managers throughout the state are being certified to enforce laws at the farmers <br />markets. He asked if the City would be willing to get involved to enforce the laws in the City of <br />Pleasanton. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico asked how an item could be put on the agenda to be discussed. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta said a letter could be sent from the individual asking the Council to address <br />certain issues or a Councilmember, under "Matters Initiated", could, with Council support direct <br />staff to address the issue. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarver asked if Mr. Benigno had written a letter to staff stating specific issues. <br /> <br /> Mr. Benigno said he has written two letters to staff and has asked for a copy of the City's <br />contract with Pacific Coast Farmers Market Association. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta said the City does not have a specific relationship with the farmers market, <br />but staff would be happy to look into any of the issues he has brought up tonight. <br /> <br />6.
