additional revenue mechanisms shall be in place to cover costs." Ms. Wagner then announced that the members of the Executive Committee would be meeting on Monday at 4:00 p.m. to discuss and write the ballot arguments. Paul Corrado, 1519 Fairview Court, expressed his anger at the misrepresentation in the newspaper article regarding the intent of the committee and its integrity. He supported the adopted language. He believed that the Council was being fair. Darryl Alexander, 849 Montevino Drive, commended Council on its adopting the language. He also believed that the ballot language was fair and served the intent of the majority of the Committee. Oliver Sweningsen, 34400 Palomares Road, agreed with the adopted language. He commented that the East Bay Regional Park District had no controls and needed to be supervised. He recommended Council to incorporate the District's park into the City's plan. Maudelene Marshall, 1405 Palomares Road, felt that the work by the Committee was in the best interest of all of the citizens of Pleasanton and she objected to reference to a "secret" meeting. She supported the process and the verbiage used for the ballot language. Shelby Fleck, 5248 Ridgevale Way, supported and agreed with the previous speakers and supported the language as adopted. Mr. Butler asked the Mayor for point of personal privilege and indicated that he needed to leave at 5:00 p.m. for an appointment. He objected to the contention that the adopted language was voted upon without public input. He also objected to the newspaper article in that morning's paper. He pointed out that the language was finally selected because, in his opinion, it fairly and accurately described the Plan that was being presented to the public. He strongly objected to the accusations that this language was biased. He supported the adopted language however, he did not have any objection to the two proposals given by previous speakers. The simplest solution would be to say "Should the General Plan be amended as recommended by the Pleasanton Ridgelands Plan." Frank Berlogar, 2200 Vineyard Avenue, urged Council to draw the line as to those people who were trying to stop the democratic process. He supported the adopted language. Emily Carsen, 2574 Skimmer Court, was concerned with the feasibility of this Plan and the problems it could bring to the residents of Pleasanton. 3/5/92 5
