aesthetic impacts. He felt these issues were not adequately addressed. He also stated that not enough notice was given by the City to the affected resi- dents regarding this item on the agenda. Mr. Mike Faber, 833 Abbie, stated he is concerned about the road extension and development of the Bonde property. He stated he does not want to stop the road but is concerned about future development. The agreement states that the City will support and incorporate into the construction plans for Bernal Avenue extension and E. Angela Street any street widenings or other modifica- tions deisred by Bonde, or successor, to facilitate future development of the subject property; that indicates to him that development is imminent. He felt not enough notice was given the the surrounding property owners regarding this matter. He opposed the findings of the negative declaration regarding no serious public controversy, growth inducing impact, noise, and traffic volumes. Mr. Swift advised that this property is under the Williamson Act and can- not be developed until such time as there is non-renewal which takes ten years, or through cancellation, which would require Council action. Also no development would take place without growth management program approval. He stated that Shapell Industries has presented a preliminary plot plan, but it will take 6 to 8 months to petition for cancellation of the Williamson Act. Mr. Faber questioned the financing of the project. Mr. Swift advised that Kottinger Ranch will pay the up-front money for construction of the road; through a long-term agreement they have agreed to pay for one/half of the road. If and when Shapell develops they will be required to pay $375,000 pro rata share for the road. The City will pay the remaining amount. Mr. Faber asked if a portion of the property is changed because the road goes through will that portion automatically be taken out of the Williamson Act and be developable. Mr. Swift advised that it would be; the next step is a request for annexation by Mrs. Bonde. Mr. Faber reiterated his concern regarding the wording of the contract. Mr. Lou Helgeson, 872 Abbie, stated he agrees that there needs to be a road but would like to see it down in the Valley because of noise. He felt the agreement was loose in areas and everything should be settled before the agreement is approved to prevent any controversy later on. Ms. Patsy Depiero, 831 East Angela, stated she is unhappy about the road. She advised that the schools are overcrowded now, there are sewer problems, and the intersections are at gridlock. She felt the developers are pushing for this matter, and it isn't what the people of the community want or need. Mrs. Margaret Tracy, representing Preserve Area Ridgelands Committee, en- couraged the continued use of "Agricultural" zoning so as not to abuse the Williamson Act. Mr. Don Feyrer, 683 Windmill Lane, strongly urged Council to be specific in the terms of the agreement. He did not want a soundwall to be built with delays such as the one on Hopyard Road. He asked Council to look at the land from the hill to get a total perspective of the road impacts. 13 - 2-2-88
