Ms. Hosterman also wanted the process to be completed sooner rather than later. <br />However, having been through the General Plan review process, she recalled heated discussions <br />on various topics and she was not certain the suggested process would allow that. She would be <br />willing to support the staff recommendation so long as there was an opportunity for as much <br />public input as possible. If it becomes clear that the process will take more time, then adjust for <br />that. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brozosky suggested that if a subcommittee was necessary to research a particular <br />item, then one could be formed as necessary. He also wanted this done sooner rather than later. <br /> <br /> Mr. Campbell did not want this process to be political. It should benefit the entire City of <br />Pleasanton and individuals should try to do what is best for the entire city and not just their <br />interest groups. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala felt the citizen element would assist in neutralizing the political aspect. She <br />would support the Council/Commission process to begin and direct staff to consider the citizen <br />aspect for the future. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Ayala, seconded by Mr. Campbell, to use the City <br />Council/Planning Commission-based process to update the General Plan, with the <br />Pleasanton Energy Committee charged with overseeing the preparation of a new draft <br />Energy Element, and directing staff to consider ways to enhance citizen participation in the <br />process, and to ensure the process is done in a timely manner. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Counciimembers -Ayala, Brozosky, Campbell, Hosterman, and Mayor Pico <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala felt there were still significant issues to be addressed, such as the Hacienda <br />Business Park, West Las Positas interchange, and East Pleasanton. <br /> <br />Item 6b <br />Review of processes for potential removal of the West Las Positas Interchange from the <br /> <br />General Plan. (SR 03:048) <br /> <br /> Brian Swift presented the staff report. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala asked for the definition of Level of Service (LOS) D. <br /> <br /> Mr. Swift said at peak hour a driver would be delayed two signal changes before being <br />able to move through an intersection. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 18 03/18/03 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
