been working with Greenbriar to resolve cost issues and determine what prorata share is appropriate for those infrastructure costs. Greenbriar is to provide documentation to determine what the actual costs were. Mayor Pico said the action before Council is not related to costs, it is to determine which of the Options for policies to establish. Ms. Michelotti felt the noticing was an issue. Mayor Pico said if there was not noticing, then he felt it would be appropriate to continue this item to a future meeting. Vince Barletta, 6290 Laura Lane, asked Council to approve Policy 5, which isn't in the staffreport. He would like the City to provide sewer and water to all the laterals such as Heron Lane, Bird Lane, Laura Lane, and all the various areas in Happy Valley that were once guaranteed by annexation. People felt so passionately about the bypass road that they gave up that amenity. He believed many people who supported annexation and wanted sewer and water gave up that right because they believed so strongly in the quality of life for the area. Now if people on the spur lanes want sewer and water, they can only get it if80% of the neighbors agreed and the City advanced the costs. For instance, ifa resident on Bird Lane wanted utilities and could not convince their neighbors to go along, even if their well and/or septic system failed, they would be without sewer and water and would have to pay 70% of the costs or convince their neighbors. That is not a good thing. People need sewer and water and that was promised under annexation by the developers. Now there is less incentive for the developers to do that, but sewer and water are still critical. He commented that the City has studied seven different access road locations. One goes down Alisal through the Spotomo flat property and up to the golf course project. The City also commissioned a concept study and cost report of an upper bypass road through Spotorno's upper land analyzing four different roads and bridge types in February 1997. Initially, the golf course developed included 24 homes on one acre lots. Council gave direction to increase the number of homes to 34 homes to help finance an upper bypass road, which was deemed the best way to develop the golf course and minimize the impact of Happy Valley. Why in 2002 is the City still looking at 34 homes with no guarantee of a bypass road. Where did that money go? It should be devoted to a bypass road. Ms. Dennis was not in favor of servicing development in the County. That has been a long-standing policy of the City. Ms. Michelotti wanted further input f~om the residents. She was unsure if they wanted to consider the cost, since it was so much. She acknowledged there is a severe need for sewer and water service. She supported serving those on Alisal or Sycamore so long as they agreed to annexation. She did not support the suggestion of Mr. Balch. This matter was continued to a future agenda.
