475 Mr. Mercer replied that although the property is currently under the County, the City of Pleasanton provides these services under a mutual aid agreement with the County and no money is received for the services rendered. However, if the property is brought into the City, the City would collect taxes and would be paid for the same levels of protection that it is providing now. Mr. Tim Voss, owner of a property adjacent to the Currin property, inquired which areas are being zoned to what densities. Mr. Swift answered that the l0 acres east of Foothill Road would be prezoned Agricultural; the 91 acres west of Foothill Road would be prezoned PUD - Rural/Low Density Residential; and the 250 acres owned by the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) would be prezoned Public/Institutional. There being no further testimony, Mr. Mercer declared the public hearing closed. Mr. Brandes expressed concern about the geological condition of the area. He asked staff at what stage a directed EIR on geology should be done if the City wanted to have one. Mr. Swift replied that an EIR was done for the General Plan, which looked at this property in detail and designated this area for development at the Rural/Low Density level. In addition, the staff has prepared a notice of preparation for doing a full EIR, not just a directed EIR on geology, for the project, which will go through the regular process where the public and all interested agencies can present their views. A geological report has been forwarded to an independent geologist for review to see if additional geological work would be necessary for this process. It was moved by Mr. Brandes, and seconded by Mr. Tarver, that Resolution No. 89-464 be adopted, based on a review of an initial environmental study done for this project and on a finding that no significant environmental impact would occur as outlined in the City's guidelines and on a further finding that a negative declaration is appropriate in connection with RZ-89-10, the application of the City of Pleasanton to prezone an approximately 351 acre site located southwest of Castlewood Country Club and generally west of Foothill Road to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) - Low Density/Rural Density Residential, "A" (Agricultural) District and "P" (Public and Institutional) Districts, or to any other zoning districts consistent with the General Plan.
