its application in a fair manner and it felt as if the City has aborted its process. It does not want to come back to the City and end up without a project. It wants to continue processing its planning proposal within Alameda County. The Mayor continued, there was some discussion as to whether the City of Pleasanton could pursue the joint venture process and pursue annexation. He met with some members of the community to get their perspective and there seemed to be a consensus from these persons that Pleasanton should have control of the project. He suggested they might have some influence with the Supervisors and might be able to further the process. They suggested they meet with the Board of Supervisors and discuss that possibility. Thereafter, Supervisors Campbell and King met with these people from the community. They came back to discuss with Mayor Tarvet that the Alameda County Board of Supervisors wanted to work with the City and they suggested that both staffs sit down and work out a proposal for a joint planning process that might be acceptable to both parties. The Supervisors' Committee then met with San Francisco representatives and developed a proposal for a joint planning process. The City now has a proposal from the County that suggest that there be two people from Alameda County Board of Supervisors, two people from the Pl~_nton City Council, and two people from the San Francisco Water District property, to cream a decision making body to process this proposal and develop a land use plan. Mayor Tarver stated the Council has put the annexation process on hold to show good faith and offered a joint planning process. At that time the proposal was given to them staff had drafted a redline proposal and put it on the agenda. Ms. Michelotti stated that she did attend the meeting with Supervisors King and Campbell along with the representatives from the community. Supervisors King and Campbell felt the meeting was productive and encouraged the Council to go forward with the development of a joint planning process. Kay Ayaia, 4515 Gatetree Circle, stated that the citizen' s committee brought together by the Mayor was not sanctioned to make any decisions nor did it intend to make any decisions. Its intent was to try and bring all parties to the table. She hoped Council would amend if necessary the proposal that was before it or send something back that would again bring the parties back together. She had calls from people in the community that wanted to be on the committee. She felt there was a strong interest in this project, and rather than have the committee be so small, she recommended that the project be reviewed as an open agenda item until something had been accomplished. Ms. Ayala suggested that the public be informed and have a way for it to voice opinions; i.e., a telephone line for that purpose. She didn't feel waiting for an election would be the best way for the public to act on its desires. She also suggested that maybe signs could be put up on the Bernal Avenue property so that when people drive by they will know that it is being studied. The community needs to know that Council wants their input and feels the process should be on-going. 08/07/95 -5 -
