She stated the review of the Growth Management Program at the last City Council meeting and the pos- ~ sible lifting of the moratorium on Vineyard Avenue will have a tremendous im- CQ pact on this property. Diamond Properties is a small residential company and ~ only build one project at a time. She advised they were notified in the early part of this year that the Pleasanton School District had this property for sale; she made an agreement with the School District that if she could obtain Growth Management Program approval she would make the sale. Diamond Proper- ties has put up considerable up-front funds relative to this project. She advised the project has been reduced from 36-units to 25-units.

Mr. Don Feyrer, 683 Windmill Lane, stated the residents of Windmill Lane met last Saturday to discuss the Bernal Avenue extension and Independence Drive. They have concerns regarding the I intersection at Bernal Avenue; that road impacts all Old Towne residents. They also would like Independence Drive removed from the map and a temporary street on Bernal Avenue to be either re- paired or resurfaced until all mitigation measures are met. He felt there needs to be alternative ways open for access to this area. Mr. Feyrer stated that he had never received notification of any action regarding Bernal Avenue improvements except a short memorandum from the Planning Department relative to the agreements for the completion of Bernal Avenue that is on this agenda; he did not feel this was sufficient notification of these relevant matters. - 10 - 8-18-87
