Brian McQuire, 233 Del Valle Court, felt that Signature Properties has had enough time. He would like to see this project completed. Ruby Hill should pay its pro-rata share. Safety is a big concern. Council adjourned to Closed Session at 9:40 p.m. to confer with legal counsel regarding potential litigation against Signature Properties concerning the Vineyard Avenue realignment. The meeting reconvened at 9:50 p.m. It was moved by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to adopt Option 4, that Signature would build the road this spring and advance aH necessary funds to do so. In return the City would agree to complete the Vineyard Avenue Specific Plan within two years. Mr. Roush clarified that if during the two year period Council was prevented from moving ahead with the project, the time frame to take action on the Specific Plan would be extended. Mayor Tarver commented Signature Properties made an agreement and it had more than enough time to complete the project. The issue is profit and loss and the community's interests versus the developer's interests. He understands Councils desire to move forward on this. He commented how upsetting it is that the City gave the maximum allowable park credit of $1.5 million dollars based on the City's commitment but now turns around and lets Signature off the hook for its commitment. He finds it totally unacceptable and would never support it. He wants people to know that in dealing with the City of Pleasanton, when they say they are going to do something the City expects them to do it.
