Mr. Knowles indicated that if Sunol metering of inbound traffic is discontinued, it would <br />be ideal for him to be able to meter Vineyard traffic, not Stanley, to get a sampling of inbound <br />traffic that is not fi.om Pleasanton residents. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala indicated metering at Ruby Hill was part of her prior motion and it was <br />adopted. <br /> <br />Item 6b <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Ayala, seconded by Ms. Hosterman, to discontinue metering <br />along Sunol Boulevard and not to meter traffic at Stanley and Valley/Bernal at this time. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Brozosky, Hosterman, and Mayor Pico <br />NOES: Councilmember Campbell <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> Ms. Hosterman believed that with the forecast of increased traffic the decision for <br />metering will be back before Council sooner than you think. <br /> <br /> Mr. Campbell said that was his point. The City ought to continue the metering that is <br />working. <br /> <br /> Mayor Pico said metering works but at what price? He was not sure he was ready to pay <br />that price right now in terms of the impact on some of the neighbors in order to relieve a problem <br />in another part of town. He would like to see what happens when it is tttmed off. He also <br />wanted to see what happens when the meters are turned on at the freeway. He also wanted to see <br />what happens once construction on Sunol is complete and whether the signs in Pleasanton Hills <br />will have a lasting impact on cut through traffic, etc. There is additional testing that is <br />necessary. There are multiple solutions and he wants to see variations of them. <br /> <br />Item 6c <br /> <br /> It was moved by Mr. Campbell, seconded by Mr. Brozosky, to activate on ramp <br />metering on 580, but only if CalTrans is agreeable to discontinuing the on ramp metering if <br />the City requests it. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers Brozosky, Campbell, and Mayor Pico <br />NOES: Councilmembers Ayala and Hosterman <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> Ms. Hosterman felt it was better to get an agreement with CalTrans before taking this <br />vote. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 24 02/18/03 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
