Ms. Acosta suggested that if Council is interested in forming a committee to study alternatives, that the committee consist of an independent geologist, who has never been involved in this project, a few residents, staff, and perhaps a Councilmember. Council should indicate - that the study recognize and consider the project as it exists today, not what could have been done six years ago. Ms. Mohr asked if it were possible to have the a geologist from the State participate in the process. Ms. Acosta answered yes and indicated she would contact Earl Hart. In response to Ms. Scribner, Mr. Swift explained who the original geologists were and their findings. George Reid, 596 Gerard Court, spoke about the landslide and earthquake faults along Foothill Road. He disagreed with the chief geologist on the project and believed that a new geological review was warranted. Jay Kamlani, owner of Lot 23, asked what recourse do the owners who have not built their homes have towards the developer. She requested a map that would show where the studies took place and where the fault lines are. She was also concerned with what she is required to disclose about the lot if she were to sell it. Ms. Kamlani also asked who would be responsible for the cost of additional studies. 05/17/94 5
