Mr. Swift indicated that there are maps available, but they do not show if or where the <br />earthquake fault lines are located because there was no indication of a surface or near surface <br />rupture at the site. <br /> <br /> Mr. Roush stated that an owner would be well advised to disclose all of the information <br />that is listed in the staff report when selling their lot(s). <br /> <br /> There was discussion regarding the Calavares Fault. <br /> <br /> Margaret Tracy, 1262 Madison Avenue, Livermore, representing the Board of Directors <br />of Preserve Area Ridgelands Committee, believed that unique natural resources should be <br />preserved and left in open space so that structures are not likely to suffer from the after effects <br />of an earthquake or landslide. <br /> <br /> David Glenn, 5650 Foothill Road, 94588, referred to the staff report attachment <br />"Geologic Studies...Summary and Chronology". He requested a continuation of these hearings <br />for Dave Rodgers and Mark Seeley's testimony and a review of the geotechnical records before <br />the next hearing. Mr. Glenn commended staff for its report/attachment and believed that it was <br />very thorough. <br /> <br /> Ted Fairfield, 5510 Sunol Blvd., consulting Civil Engineer, briefly described his <br />participation in the geological studies and the use of the many geologists used. He did not <br />believe that it was necessary for additional studies. He commended Mr. Swift for his work on <br />and knowledge of this project. Mr. Fairfield offered any information that he was aware of to <br />further help Council make a decision. <br /> <br /> Mike Hornig, 1956 Regulus Court, Livermore, owner of Lot #63, felt that additional <br />studies were needed before issuing any more building permits. <br /> <br /> Karl Hsu Kai Yang, 825 Hopkins Road, owner of Lot #25, asked if there was similar <br />types of controversy when the developments to the south and north were built. <br /> <br /> Mr. Swift listed each of the subdivisions and the studies, if any, that were conducted. <br />In response to Mayor Tarver, Mr. Swift was aware of two homes in Castlewood that were <br />destroyed by landslides. <br /> <br /> Gary Schwaegerle, 189 West Angela Street, suggested that the remaining lots should be <br />required to have an individual soils report. <br /> <br /> Sharrell Michelotti, 7873 Olive Court, asked how far down did the trenching occur on <br />the site when the studies were being conducting. <br /> <br /> Mr. Swift estimated 15 to 20 feet. <br /> <br />05/17/94 6 <br /> <br /> <br />
