60 <br /> <br /> BART Stations in Pleasanton <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer informed the Councilmembers that the Measure B <br /> Committee approved $59.4 Million for BART to build the station at <br /> Hacienda Business Park, with the balance to be used on the rest of <br /> the line. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver stated that Council has always indicated that it <br /> wants two stations in the Valley and suggested that the City <br /> continue to apply pressure to find a solution for two stations. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer agreed. <br /> 10. MATTERS CONTINUED FOR DECISION <br /> <br /> There were none. <br /> <br /> 11. REPORTS OF BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS <br /> <br /> There were none. <br /> <br /> 12. REPORTS OF THE CITY MANAGER <br /> Item 12a <br /> Report on the Status of the Water Conservation Proqram (SR 91:81) <br /> <br /> Mr. John Annear, 3499 Cumberland Gap Court, stated that a car <br /> hit a water hydrant on Hopyard Road three weeks ago and that <br /> nothing was done for at least 45 minutes to stop the water from <br /> flowing. He added that the City could not afford to waster so much <br /> water in view of the present water situation. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer referred the matter to Mr. Elliott. <br /> <br /> Mr. Elliott replied that he was not informed of the accident <br /> and that in cases like this, the water should have been shut down <br /> within 15 minutes. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver commented that he found it very difficult to <br /> understand how Zone 7 could assure the City during the past four <br /> years that there would be no problem with the water supply until <br /> the year 2010 and then tell the City this year that it has to cut <br /> back its water consumption by 90%. He stated that the City should <br /> seriously consider how to deal with the water situation and be <br /> sensitive to the quality of life issues that were guaranteed the <br /> residents of the Valley. He indicated that a message should be <br /> sent to Zone 7 and to the State to find a way of getting the water <br /> supply to Pleasanton if the City is to keep economically growing <br /> and if Council is to continue making the decisions it has made over <br /> <br /> - 10 - <br /> 3-5-91 <br /> <br /> <br />
