Ms. Dennis pointed out that the tenant would be required to participate in the <br />transportation systems management programs and the level of participation would <br />increase as traffic levels exceeded what is set forth in the staff studies. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarver agreed with Mr. Pieo's comments. He did not want to see a sea of <br />asphalt if all the parking is not needed. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mantoani indicated the parking would be reviewed in phases as the property <br />develops. They do not want to waste space, but do want to preserve their rights. <br /> <br /> Ms, Michelutti agreed that since it is a phased project, parking could be reviewed <br />as the project develops. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mantoani stated the prqiect will be phased over eight or nine years. In five <br />years, it is expected there would be 500,000 square tYet. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico asked ifPE Biosystems would be willing to adopt "green" building <br />guideline standards. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mantoani was not certain what that entailed and did not want to make a <br />commitment until he had reviewed the issues. <br /> <br /> Ms. Dennis pointed out the City has not adopted those standards yet and this <br />would be the first commemial building to explore that. She asked if the company would <br />agree to recycle mate~ai when the existing buildings are demolished in order to reduce <br />the impact on the City's landfill. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mm~toani indicated the company has an extensive recycling program and he <br />would be willing to work with the City on that issue. <br /> <br />Ms. Michelotti asked when construction would start on the new buildings. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mantoani said the existing building will be occupied, then constructinn would <br />start on the new building of about 300,000 sq. fi. When that is complete, the employees <br />will move to the new building and the old building will be demolished. They will then <br />proceed with construction of the remainder of the proposed project. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti indicated that presently when the site is seen from 1-680, one looks <br />down into the site. She asked if there are buildings in the low portion of the site that <br />would be increased in size. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mantoani reileruted that this is a conceptual plan and when the final plans are <br />developed they hope to take full advantage of the site. <br /> <br />Mayor Tarver declared the public hearing open. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 10 07/11/00 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
