213 <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers Butler, Mohr, Scribner, Tarver, and Mayor <br /> Mercer <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />5. MEETING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC <br /> <br />Water Issue, Arroyo Trails, and Street Safety <br /> <br /> Mr. Stanley Rathbone, 325 Ray Street, stated that the water <br />issue should be discussed in all environmental reports. He added <br />that having trails on the Arroyo, which he has opposed for the past <br />seven years, allows children to go down the creek and to cause <br />accidents such as the recent fire by the old railroad tracks. He <br />also expressed concern about accidents which may be caused by <br />joggers, bikers and skateboard riders who disregard traffic <br />signals. <br /> <br />Pleasanton Girls' Softball Leaque <br /> <br /> Mr. Bob Boni, 3230 Omega Circle, President of Pleasanton <br />Girls' Softball League, indicated that the League has saved $20,000 <br />during the past three years towards the building of a snack bar, <br />which would eventually serve as a main source of income for the <br />League. He stated that the snack bar would both support the League <br />and pay for the older girls who serve as umpires for the younger <br />girls' games. He added that the League is committed to the City; <br />it has donated a tree to the City and helped put up a bleachers <br />section on the field. He requested Council to include the balance <br />of the cost of the snack bar in the City's Capital Improvement <br />Project (CIP) Budget for the next fiscal year. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer stated that the City has built snack bars for the <br />Boys' Leagues and that these snack bars generate a substantial <br />amount of revenue for the Leagues. He added that the Girls' League <br />now has 900 members and is asking the City to provide the balance <br />to their $20,000 to build a snack bar. He requested Staff to <br />prepare a report on where a snack bar could be built and how much <br />it would cost. The Park and Recreation Commission would then <br />consider the report and present its recommendations to the Council, <br />which would determine whether or not the project would be included <br />in the CIP Budget. Mr. Mercer then informed Mr. Boni that Staff <br />would let him know when the matter would come before the Park and <br />Recreation Commission and the City Council. <br /> <br /> - 3 - <br /> 6-4-91 <br /> <br /> <br />
