Mr. Swirl indicated city staffwill be heavily involved in reviewing the road around the school site. The actual design of the school itself is by state statute given to the School District and not the City. Staff would not review those designs. The District has worked cooperatively with the City with respect to the circulation and parking for other schools and he anticipates that will continue for Neal School. Mr. Roush felt that if Council wanted to formalize staffparticipation, he recommended that be part of the final agreements that will come back to Council. He did not want to modify the Points of Agreement, since it had already been approved by the District and various developers. It was moved by Ms. Micheiotti, seconded by Ms. Dennis, to concur that the revised Points of Agreement concerning school impact fees and school facilities are acceptable and direct staff to bring back an amendment to the Cooperative Fee Agreement to implement the revised Points of Agreement. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Campbell, Dennis, Michelotti, and Mayor Pico NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Ms. Ayala agreed the staffreview of design should be included in the final documents. She appreciated the cooperation of the District to this point. A large part of the infrastructure in the Vineyard area concerns the realignment of Vineyard Avenue and she felt that would take care of Ms. Roberts' concerns. She was adamant that the infrastructure including realignment of the road and sewer and water are completed in conjunction with the school construction. Mr. Campbell asked if Ms. Ayala wanted staff involved in the design of the school or with the infrastructure. Ms. Ayala clarified that the design of the school has always been in the District's purview, and she was certain Signature Properties will build a beautiful school that fits in with the Ruby Hill area. She felt everyone was cooperating beautifully and felt that will continue so the school can be opened in the fall of 2002 with all necessary infrastructure. Ms. Michelotti also believed the City will work with the Vineyard Corridor developers to see that the infrastructure is completed in a timely fashion. She did not believe it was necessary to mandate further cooperation. She felt this was a historic moment when the District, the City and the development community have worked cooperatively to reach agreement to provide a means to build a school in a timely fashion and she was confident the infrastructure would be there. The developers are paying more than they are required to so the children can have excellent facilities. State law mandates $2.00 per square foot and they have agreed to pay $6.50. Another developer will oversee and provide an $8.5 million, interest deferred, loan to build the Neal School as part of this Pleasanton City Council 7 02/06/01 Minutes
