members that are voting. She asked about starting the study after the first of the new year. Mr. Swifi said it would be holding up that committee.

Ms. Acosta stated that since the staff report has been distributed there was some concern about the mutual dccision making process described in the staff report. This agreement would provide both cities with the ability to acquire more open space that would benefit the whole valley. The agreement provides that both cities would mutually agree as to what properties would be supported in the agreement through the county committee process, which is set up to handle the financial aspects of this. The default provision provides that the monies would be spent on a population basis. If City of Dublin agrees with this concept, this agreemeat will be corrected to reflect this point. Mayor Tarvet said he understood this to now mean that the agreement would reflect a population split if no agreement is reached julntly how to spend the money. If this discussion broke down, then each city would go its own way with the funds that were collec~d, based upon population. This is the new dePault position. Ms. Michelot~i said the whole idea of this is that Pleasanton would have the ability to acquire open space in a larger area as wclI as additional funds to do this and if it were in the interest of both communities to take a chunk on the Dublin side, then Pleasanton could agree to that. If this is agreeable and is on the list of priorities, then that is what Pleasanton would do. If it is in the best interest for Dublin to join Pleasanton in getting something on the Pleasanton side, that is what we would do. It gives Pleasanton thc opportunity to work cooperatively for the joint communities and that is the fucus. if that fails, then both parties will go back to the deliiult position.
