p. Support Eden Council for Hope & Opportunity (ECHO) by participation in an <br /> Amicus brief concerning Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation (SLAPP) <br /> litigation. (SR97:245) <br /> <br /> q. Approve the application to partially dose Vineyard Avenue for the Triathlon <br /> event bicycle race on September 21, 1997. (SR97:251) <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Ayaia, Dennis, Michelotti, Pico, and Mayor Tarver <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> MEETIN~ QPEN TQ THE PUBLIC <br /> <br /> Pat Stillman, 2934 Killcare, Sunol, President of Save Our Sunol, spoke in opposition to <br />efforts to move the Renaissance Pleasure Faire to Sunol. She was concerned about traffic, fire <br />danger, etc. and urged Council to support the efforts of the Save Our Sunol organization to <br />block the plans of the Renaissance Pleasure Faire. <br /> <br /> John Innes, 1586 Foothill Road, member of the Coalition to Preserve the Arroyo de la <br />Laguna Water Shed, also spoke in opposition to the Renaissance Pleasure Faire. He asked <br />Council to hold a public hearing on this subject to make sure the community is informed of the <br />impacts and to get public input. He stated that no formal application has been submitted to <br />Alameda County, but there have been discussions with the San Francisco Public Utilities <br />Commission, the owner of the property. <br /> <br /> Mr. Ta_rver believed the Council agreed with Mr. Innes and Supervisors Steele and <br />Haggerty have been contacted regarding this subject. A single topic meeting has been discussed, <br />but until an EIR or an application is submitted, it is unclear what the development is in order <br />to discuss specifics. <br /> <br /> Mr. Innes was concerned that the Renaissance Pleasure Faire proposal could "slip in" <br />under the Bernal Avenue property approvals. He wanted to be sure the public was aware of this <br />situation. He asked if the application, when it is submitted, would be heard before the Alameda <br />County Board of Supervisors, or the Pleasanton City Council. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarvet indicated his personal position is that there is no way that negotiations with <br />the San Francisco Water Department would include an agreement for the Renaissance Faire <br />application to go forward. He also indicated there would probably be two hearings, one before <br />the City Council and one before the Board of Supervisors. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 08/26/97 <br />Minutes 4 <br /> <br /> <br />
