and when the City came out to inspect the roof, he was told it could not be inspected by the City <br />because he lived within the County. His inspection fee was never reimbursed. <br /> <br /> Ed Johnson, 327 Linden Way, said he was opposed to the annexation. He wants the <br />parcels to stay the same density. He feels people that own a third acre or less should be able <br />to build on the lots. With Mr. Hempy's proposal only one-half acres would be allowed to be <br />developed. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarvet said Council has been trying to work with the owners of the parcels to <br />determine what would be acceptable. Lots of record would not be excluded from developing. <br /> <br /> Mr. Johnson said some good honest across the table discussions would help ease the <br />neighbors concerns. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala asked if he would be willing to do this? <br /> <br /> Mr. Johnson said yes. <br /> <br /> Loft Johnson, 3545 Vine Street, said she loved the Remen Tract neighborhood. There <br />is a close unity in the area and she does not want to see this change. <br /> <br /> Chris Johnson, 3545 Vine Street, said there were two issues: sewer/water connection and <br />annexation and he felt it needed to be clarified and separated. He said the neighborhood was <br />not opposed to letting new people into the neighborhood but masses of people would spoil the <br />setting. He felt the required improvements would promote higher density housing. He said the <br />neighborhood was not allowed to vote on the General Plan, while being surrounded by the City. <br />If annexation means compromising the life style in Remen Tract, he would rather stay within <br />the County. He did not feel the annexation issue could be resolved tonight and the best solution <br />would be to create a committee. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarvet asked if the City received any tax sharing from the County and what <br />services were provided? <br /> <br /> Mr. Bocian said fire protection was the only services provided. <br /> <br /> Tom Dillard, 452 Linden Way, said he was opposed to the annexation due to unknown <br />factors, but he said he would be willing to serve on a committee to discuss the issues. <br /> <br /> Karla Georgis, 366 Virginia Way, said she wants to hook up to the City sewer and <br />supported the applicants. She wants to keep the rural environment. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 05/20/97 <br />Minutes 9 <br /> <br /> <br />
