Adoption of Resolution No. 89-335, authorizing the <br /> Director of Public Works and Utilities to sign Right-of- <br /> Way Certification for the 1-680 soundwall. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers Brandes, Butler, Mohr, Tarver, and Mayor <br /> Mercer <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />5. MEETING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC <br /> Mr. Rick Aguilar, 7736 Flagstone Drive, Chairman of the <br />Affordable Housing Committee and the Citizens Committee on <br />Affordable Housing at Pleasanton, presented some suggestions from <br />the Committee for consideration by the task force for affordable <br />housing at its meeting next week. The Committee strongly <br />recommended that the 14-acre site which once served as the City's <br />old Corporation Yard be set aside for affordable housing to be <br />developed by a non-profit developer of the Council's choice. It <br />would be designated primarily for very low, low, and moderate <br />income single parents, city employees, first-time homebuyers, and <br />handicapped and would have both rental and purchase units at a <br />two-thirds to one-third ratio. Those renting units would have <br />first priority to purchase any units up for resale, which may not <br />be resold at market value. The design, density, and style of <br />architecture would be similar to those of Ridge View Commons. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brandes commented that while the Committee's suggestions <br />are matters to be strongly considered, it would be premature to <br />make a commitment on that property at this time. He added that he <br />would like to see the task force meet first and come back with <br />additional information before any decisions were made. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mercer agreed with Mr. Brandes' comment and stated that <br />the task force would bring back recommendations which would answer <br />a lot of questions and concerns. He assured Mr. Aguilar that no <br />decisions regarding the property's designation would be made <br />until then. <br /> <br /> -3- <br /> 8-1-89 <br /> <br /> <br />
