COMMUNICATIONS Letter fro~ Bozid~r Rajkovski Mayor Mercer presented a letter from Bozidar RaJkovski, 383 Diablo Road, Danville, relative to affordable housing and Ruby Hill Vineyard, and requesting to meet with Council and staff to discuss his proposal for the land. Mayor Mercer suggested holding a public hearing on this matter at a joint meet- ing of City Council and Planning Commission in order to get public input as well as a presentation on the proposal of Mr. RaJkovski. Councilmember Wood stated he felt this would set a bad precedent, and requested that the developer be allowed to set the meeting date and place. Mr. Batty Schraeder, representing Save the Vineyards Group, stated that he'felt Mr. RaJkovski is dealing with the County regarding this matter, and that this pro- posal to the City is a shot in the dark and an exercise in futility. He advised that Mr. RaJkovski is proposing leapfrog annexation which is against both City and LAFCO policies. After discussion, it was moved by Councilmember Wood, and seconded by Council- member Mohr, that Mr. RaJkovski be allowed to make a presentation, at a date and place selected by him, relative to his proposal regarding affordable busing and the Ruby Hill Vineyard, and that the public be invited to attend this meeting. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Mohr, Wood, and Mayor Mercer NOES: None ABSENT: Councilmembers Butler and Kephart MATTERS INITIATED BY COUNCILM~MBERS Mayor Mercer expressed grave concern and frustration regarding the latest escapee incident from the Santa Rita Jail facility in which a Pleasanton woman was kidnapped, raped and robbed. Councilmembers Mohr and Wood concurred. Councilmember Wood suggested that the County be required to wire the present fence for sound; to install a second fence outside'the present fence ands'about seven feet higher; and to pay a dog patrol inbetween the fences. He stated this would not be too costly and he felt it would greatly reduce the number of escapees. Mayor Mercer presented a Petition that is being circulated by the victim of the Santa Rtta escapee, which reads as follows: '.,We the undersigned, do hereby petition the Alameda County Board of Supervisors to take the appropriate action to increase security at the Santa Rita Facility to prevent further escapes. I am a registered voter in the County of Alameda." After discussion, Mayor Mercer instructed the City Attorney to prepare a report, for review at the September 29, 1981, City Council meeting, relative to possible legal action that could be taken to require the County to upgrade the facility at Santa Rita. ADJOURh~4ENT There being no further business at 6:15 P.M., it was moved by Councilmember Mohr, and seconded by Councilmember Wood, that the meeting be adjourned to meet again in Regular Session on September 29, 1981, 8:00 P.M., at the Fairgrounds Cafeteria.
