(SR 03:212) Ann Fox, 2866 Garden Creek Circle, opposed Option 1, which would take away the Iron Horse Trail in Pleasanton. The trains are planned to be routed through residential neighborhoods. She showed photos of the trail and proposed train route. There would be impacts on the neighborhoods from noise. She did not think that route would provide more ridership as claimed because it is not a direct route. She urged Council and the Mayor to oppose Option 1 and to keep the Iron Horse Trail for the residents to enjoy. She supported routing the train next to 1-580. Robert S. Allen, 223 Donner Avenue, former BART Director, said he was well acquainted with the railroad industry equipment and operations. He said he would keep his comments until the next meeting. Vanessa Kawaihau, 871 Sycamore Road, thanked Council for the allocation of $500,000 towards the Happy Valley bypass road.
