The referendum having been successful according to the City Clerk's canvass of votes, thus repealing Ordinance No. 629, discussion ensued regarding existing land use on the parcel covered by Ordinance No. 629. In light. of remarks by Mayor Reid there was general ag~reement that perhaps further study over a short time span would be .!appropriate prior to fixing of permanent zoning district boundaries. The Council was presented with a draft of an ordinance purporting to place the land covered by Ordinance No. 629 in a Study District temporarily pending study, said district to expire, unless extended pursuant to Section 65658 of the Government Code. The Ordinance was numbered 637 and was to be effective immediately in order to ensure that short time study of land use be effected without reliance by the landowner on the underlying Commercial zoning which might have an adverse economic effect on the value of surrounding properties and be out of character therewith. It was moved by Mayor Reid and seconded by Councilman Beratlis that Ordinance No. 637 amending the zoning classification on an interim urgency basis to a Study District for approximately 18 acres of land' located in the City of Pleasanton at the southeasterly corner of Bernal Avenue and Foothill Road, Bounded on the east by the Arroyo De La Laguna, on the south by a parcel of property approximately 20 acres in size zoned RM-2500, on the west by Foothill Road and on the North by Bernal Avenue, be introduced and adopted.
