Review of Task Force Report Re: Growth Rate Limitation Re.port Re: Suggested Growth Rate Limitation for the area .tributary to the Sunol Boulevard Treatment Plant Mr. Edgar stated that the Policy on Restricted Growth and the Task Force Report regarding Growth Rate Limitation are to be used as background information on the Suggested Growth Rate Limitation for the area tribu- tary to the Sunol Treatment Plant. Mr. Jim Walker presented charts which are propotbelly, to serve as an admin- istrative mechanism to be applied. for building and sewer connection per- mits which would be issued upon the lifting of 'the. cease and desist order imposed upon the City of Pleasanton by the Regional 7~ater Quality Control Board. Mr. Edgar recommended that the Restricted Growth Policy be adopted as an attempt to forestall a possible rush for building permits when the sewer ban is lifted. Mr. Edgar stated that the permits allocated under the restricted growth policy will be divided among the local developers on a percentage basis looking to the number of improved lots each developer owns and emphasized that construction of single fami].%., residents by in- dividuals and commercial and industrial development will be exempt from the policy. Councilman Pearson stated that he would not favor this policy because he felt that adding sewage to the plant might load it to the point where it would not function properly again unless additional money was spent on the plant. Herman Trudner of Mission Park Development Company, complained that no notice of the 300-unit limit was given to developers of multiples and asked that the policy be tabled. Denise Thibault, Mission Park Developer, charged that no consideration has been given to tile amount of time 'a person has held the property and the amount of taxes that have"been paid on it. Councilman Mori indicated that he felt there was an excessive ratio be- tween the number of single family and multiple permits allocated under the system. Mr. Edgar explained that the single family and multiple units were being treated in the same manner. Mayor Reid stated that he felt the staff has proposed a logical and ration- al plan which can be monitored and reviewed. After some additional discussion on this entire policy, it was moved by Councilman Kinney and seconded by Councilman Herlihy that Resolution No. 72-61, approving the administrative mechanism described in the report to the City Manager by the Task Force, dated April 24, 1972,-'be adopted.
