Ms. Dennis agreed with staffs recommendation and felt there would be more opportunity for the public to comment. She would like to explore all the issues and receive the community's input in regards to those issues. She understood that the pipeline could not be implemented as originally proposed. Ms. Ayala asked at what point does LAVWMA and the City move forward with the project. Mr. Pico felt the compromise still has significant growth controls that are extremely important to the overall agreement. He said LAVWMA Board needs direction ~'om the City of Pleasanton and has some flexibility to continue with the process. It was moved by Mr. Pico, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to adopt Resolution No. 98-048, directing the Pleasanton Representatives to the LAVWMA Board to inform the LAVWMA Board that the Pleasanton City Council is in support of the Hybrid Pipeline Alternative through Castro Valley, San Leandro and the Roberts Landing area and the alternatives for the new pipeline around the Stoneridge Mall area in Pleasanton, and that environmentalwork on these alternatives should proceed as quickly as possible and directing the Pleasanton representatives to the LAVWMA Board to request that LAVWMA investigate the possibility of a combined single pipeline through Pleasanton in the Stoneridge Mall area. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Dennis, Michelotti, and Pico. NOES: Councilmember Ayala. ABSENT: Mayor Tarver. ABSTAIN: None. Ms. Ayala asked if a single pipeline connecting to a dual pipeline would work. Mr. Lum said both configurations could work. Ms. Ayala had a concern with using a single pipeline through Pleasanton connecting to a dual pipeline in Castro Valley. Mr. Pico said this project has been considered for a number of years. It was put to the vote of the people. He said commitments have been made to the community. He asked if Ms. Ayala was proposing putting an initiative on the ballot to overturn the vote? He felt it was the responsibility of the Council to honor the agreement. He was not prepared to reopen the Joint Powers Agreement. He was willing to make reasonable modifications in order to be flexible to achieve the objectives while still honoring the commitments to the community. He felt if the measure were to go to the vote of the people today, the measure would fail. Pleasanton City Council 11 04/20/99 Minutes
