Mr. Swift stated that the applicant had asked for a three month trial basis to run the business after which the neighbors would then be renoticed and the application treated as if it were a new application. If any concerns are raised, it will go back to the Planning Commission for a review, and it will have the ability to deny the permit, or to attach conditions. Council accepted the Information Report. Item 6m Follow-up discussion with Council re~,arding the San Francisco Water District Pr0_iect, Deborah Acosta stated that Council in the June 6 meeting requested staff to send a letter to the Alameda County Planning Commission requesting the County to return the San Francisco Water Department project to Pleasanton. If the Commission were not comfortable with that, Council suggested the Commission put the project on hold to allow Pleasanton's concerns to be heard. Another recommendation suggested that the Commission tell San Francisco to hear Pleasanton's concerns and deal with us as a neighbor. Lastly, if the Commission were not amenable to any of those recommendations, that there be some sort of joint planning process in which Pleasanton would be involved. Ms. Acosta stated that the Commission's motion was to continue processing the application but indicated that Pleasanton should be involved in the process. The Commission - stated it had serious concerns about the project, but it asked Pleasanton to make sure our concerns were in writing, other than just the comments on the EIR. The Commission indicated that it is concerned with a project duplicating services. Ms. Acosta stated that there have been private citizens who have contacted the Board of Supervisors about the project. They have met with a Board committee and have indicated there is some willingness on the County's part to work with Pleasanton. There was a suggestion made by two Board members that maybe the two planning staffs could get together to review the project and provide joint comments through the process. Ms. Acosta thought that staff is now recommending that it might be helpful to be authorized to have discussion with Alameda County to clarify what type of joint process would be acceptable to the County. Staff would then bring that back to Council. Ms. Dennis asked if our staff has had conversations with the Alameda County planning staff?. Ms. Acosta stated that what staff was recommending was to explore what joint planning process would be acceptable to the County. Ms. Acosta stated that staff will request a special meeting to bring that information back to the Council before the County Planning Commission's meeting on July 17. 06/20/95 -20-
