Item 8b <br />Status report rel.,arding the General Plan un(late process and nlanninl~ for the San <br />Francisco Water Department land, (IR 94:55) <br /> <br />Brian Swift presented the staff report. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver asked for clarification concerning the application that the San Francisco <br />Water Department has made to Alameda County. <br /> <br /> Mr. Swift said it was not clear what land use configuration was being used. Ms. Acosta <br />indicated the plan will be presented to the City Council. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver wanted to make it clear that the City has been working on this project for 18 <br />months and San Francisco has not participated in any of the committees reviewing the area. He <br />did not feel that San Francisco had been cooperative. <br /> <br /> Sharrell Michciotti, 7878 Olive Court, stressed the need for communication and urged <br />Council not to create an adversarial relationship. She referred to the comments quoted in the <br />newspaper. <br /> <br /> Frank Brandes, 6889 Corte Sonaria, greed that people do not want 3,000 units on the <br />San Francisco property. However, no one wants to negotiate when they have been publicly <br />insulted. San Francisco has every legal fight to go to Alameda County Board of Supervisors for <br />approval of its plan. Threats of recall for the Board of Supervisors will not help the situation. <br />If we fail to negotiate, we will lose. There have been many major decisions in the past <br />involving a lot of money and no one threatened lawsuits. Everyone participated in the <br />negotiations and somehow the City got through it. Mr. Brandes agreed that Council's concerns <br />are legitimate. <br /> <br /> Gary Schwaegerle, 189 W. Angela, also expressed concerns about the application to <br />Alameda County. He then expressed his concerns about watex, sewer capacity, and high <br />density. <br /> <br />Ms. Dennis inquired about impact on the School District. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta stated the District will still require San Francisco to pay the impact fee, but <br />the School District would be responsible for enforcing that. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico indicated the public may not realize that action has been taken by Council and <br />staff to communicate with San Francisco seeking cooperation. He read a letter from the Mayor <br />to the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission and indicated a similar letter had been sent to <br />Supervisor Campbell. Mr. Pico believed that San Francisco has been following the general plan <br /> <br />09/20/94 <br /> - 14- <br /> <br /> <br />
