by the community, Alameda County and San Francisco Water District. The way the process is proposed, San Francisco can get out if it doesn't like what it is hearing, and the same for Alameda County and our City. The process is supposed to get all entities to a point where there will be a consensus plan and it should then be taken to the community for approval whether a referendum or initiative. He hoped that the last step would be annexation; the official approval by Pleasanton to adopt the plan. Ms. Mohr asked about the County's desire for a 90 day process and when the 90 days would begin. She asked if the item is continued to the next Council meeting if that would delay the start of the 90 days or if the starting date was open. Ms. Acosta stated the 90 days begins from the signing of the document, and that it was open at this point.. Mayor Tarver stated that there will be more discussion on the item and that it will be continued to the next Council meeting so Council will have a better set of options and discussion of the staff report. Jocelyn Combs, 5151 Greentree Court, commented that the Tri-Valley Planning Committee could be a model for consensus planning. She stated this agreement was presented to San Francisco with terms by the Board of Supervisors without benefit of staff and without representation by Pleasanton. She also commented that the Council might try to acquire a portion of the property and work out an acceptable development proposal. She stated that would allow San Francisco to use that fund as its starting money to develop the proposal. Mr. Roush stated that the way it was proposed, this process contemplates comments to and refinements of an existing plan. If the City is interested in looking at something else, then the City needs to be up front about that and find out the County's and San Francisco's response to that. Brian Arkin, 7355 Lemonwood Way, stated he still felt very concerned about the density of the project. Most people don't know about the project and what is happening with it and thought that more advertising should take place. Posters could be made for the Farmers Market, concerts in the park or even at the mall. Larry Levin, 3 178 Weymouth Court, asked how long had San Francisco been trying to develop a project at that site. Mayor Tarver stated that this particular project has been going on four years. Ms. Mohr stated that San Francisco has been trying to build at that site for at least fifteen years that she knew of. 08/07/95 -13-
