Ms. Mohr stated that Mr. Pico knows the neighborhood well and all these issues probably need to be done, but she felt that this was not the time to do that. She preferred the Mirador question and as a second motion to ask staff to bring back the answers to all Mr. Pieo's suggestions. She felt that given the opportunity, staff might bring back a better solution for Mirador than Council had come up with. Ms. Michelotti stated she felt Mr. Pico's suggestions were needed but to tie those issues to a vote made her uncomfortable. She preferred to have two motions. She also felt that she would need staff input for all Mr. Pico's recommendations. Mayor Tarver stated that there have been bad planning decisions because of other factors, like Sutter Gate not going through to the Sports Park, the left turn lane from Main Street to Bernal was not recommended by staff, but it is not to say that Council does not value staff opinions, professional points of view and their considerations. Ms. Mohr asked for a chance to see the double lane and wanted it to be separated from the other issues. She would support Mr. Pico's recommendations so that if staff brought back something better the Council could accommodate it. Ms. Acosta stated that if the left turn issue required removing parking spaces or if there were some other things that might happen because of the speed bumps, and when you decide an item that no one was expecting you to decide the community might not feel they had been noticed so that they could respond. The community then might ask you to reconsider your decision since they did not have a chance to tell the Council their opinions on that particular issue. Mayor Tarver asked if it was possible to frame a motion that would say that it was the Council's intent to do the following to solve this problem and put it on the agenda item with comments from staff and have another hearing. Mr. Pico stated that he felt it was time to get the issue done and over. It was moved by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Mayor Tarver, to adopt Resolution No. 95-72, following the recommendation of the General Plan Steering Committee as to Mirador Drive and that when the public improvements for the Bonde Ranch Subdivision are accepted, Mirador Drive at Bernal Avenue will be open to the public, that no left turn be permitted from Bernal Avenue to Mirador Drive nor from Mirador Drive to Bernal Avenue, and that a beer, as approved by the Traffic Engineer, be placed so as to prohibit motorists from making such turns. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Dennis, Pico, and Mayor Tarver NOES: Councilmember Michelotti and Mohr ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None 06/27/95 - 11 -
