Ms. Hosterman asked Mr. Costanzo if he had ever seen the list of 150 items that was presented to the Planning Commission from the Alameda County Waste Management Authority. Mr. Costanzo informed her that as a company, he had not seen it. He indicated he had a staffmember who is not with them tonight who has been following this and working closely on it. He stated that he does not know if the Heinz list meets the 50 points. Ms. Hosterman believed there were many items on the list that were germane to good building practices, not unlike the LEED List. Mr. Costanzo informed her that he was sure it was similar to the list they created. The list created is very extensive and has many Green Building items as they are doing many of those on many of the projects they are building on the Bemal property. He was not willing to make a commitment that they will attain 50 points when he does not know all the details of the program. He was willing to stand behind their commitment of meeting the Green Building list that was put together with staffand the County, and approved by Council on property. They know they can meet the list they prepared because those are the building materials they use. In an effort to streamline building practices across the County of Alameda, Ms. Hosterman believed the City of Pleasanton would like to be in compliance. She asked Mr. Costanzo if it would be possible to look at the 40 items on their list that would be appropriate and applicable to this project. She also suggested that they take a look at the Alameda County list of 150 potential levels to see if they could possibly meet any of those items on their list. Mr. Costanzo noted that is was possible but it is not possible by tonight's approval which was why he was requesting not to be required to have 50 points. Don Ruthroff, representing Dahlin Group, 2671 Crow Canyon Road, San Ramon, presented the architecture. He believed they have put together a nice package and indicated they had done an extensive design program in concert with the Planning staff and their hired outside architectural consultant. The architectural theme is a French/country village atmosphere floor plans, which include three elevations per plan and some variation. Two plans have detached garages and secondary units. To make it clear, Ms. Ayala inquired if these were the same plans as already have been approved for the Heinz property? Mr. Ruthroff confirmed that they were the same plans as already approved for the Heinz project. Pleasanton City Council 14 10/07/03 Minutes
