the number of units approved would approximate what was estimated in the Specific Plan. If the number of units is significantly different, than a review of the Specific Plan is in order. Ms. Michelotti asked who are the funding developers. Mr. Swift said the basic infrastructure that is being installed to serve the development in the North Sycamore Specific Plan is being financed by the Greenbriar project, (which is under construction), the New Cities project (which is before you tonight) and the Lund property (that will be served by the road and water infrastructure only). The road built by these developers will serve the entire area, rather than use the streets that were established in the adjoining property. Ms. Michelotti asked which parties would be signing the development agreement. Mr. Swift said the New Cities project, the Summerhill project (Sportono property), the TTK project and potentially the residential golf course properties. The bypass road will utilize the road that is being built by Greenbriar in the North Sycamore Specific Plan. The road will run through the New Cities project and the Summerhill project. Ms. Michelotti understood the two key parts for the bypass road, between what has been approved (Greenbriar) and the golf course property, is the New Cities and Summerhill projects. Mr. Swift said that is correct. Ms. Ayala asked what was the range of density when the Specific Plan was originally approved. Mr. Swift said all the properties in the Noah Sycamore Specific Plan were designated low density residential on the General Plan. The Specific Plan established two units per acre as the essential target density for most of these properties. The idea was to have larger lot sizes in the hilly areas and adjoining northem boundary of the Specific Plan. Ms. Ayala asked what is the lowest density and highest density under the new General Plan? Mr. Swift said zero at the low end and two units per acre at the high end. Mayor Tarver declared the public hearing open. Fred Bates, 9781 Blue Larkspur Lane, Monterey, thanked everyone for the hard work and input regarding this project. He gave an overview of the project. He wanted to address comments that he has heard: 1) this plan is an environmental disaster. He said New Cities is not aware of any problems and stated an environmental impact report was approved in 1992 as part of the Specific Plan; 2) that the project is not consistent with the Noah Sycamore Specific Plan. He said the plan is consistent with the Noah Sycamore Specific Plan; 3) that New Cities was not sensitive to the Pleasanton City Council 3 08/09/99 Minutes
