constructed, but there was no expressed timetable set forth as it was incumbent upon <br />development occurring on private property. <br /> <br /> Ms. McGovern asked if the golf course project could be completed with this being <br />the last additional appropriation of funds? <br /> <br /> Mr. Fialho said his expectation and direction to staff is to finish this project by <br />June 2005, and that this be the only time that staff comes back to Council for an <br />additional allocation to complete the project. He noted that a reenergized commitment to <br />this project has been made by assigning the Public Works Director to manage the <br />project in addition to the new contractor who is managing the seeding operation. He is <br />optimistic that the seeding will be completed by June and play beginning in late fall. <br /> <br /> Ms. McGovern believed having the Public Works Director on location and actively <br />managing the golf course project has expedited the process. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Mr. Brozosky, seconded by Ma. McGovern, to appropriate <br />$983,802 from additional interest earnings generated from the golf course <br />construction fund balance to the project construction fund and authorize use of <br />any additional accrued interest in the golf course construction fund; to <br />appropriate $1,218,698 from the Miscellaneous Reserve for Previously Funded <br />Capital Improvement Projects to the golf project construction fund; to authorize a <br />temporary loan (if necessary) from the Water Fund of up to $5 million until such <br />time as the golf course lot developers reimburse the City for work performed to <br />benefit the residential lots, and to provide a report to Council that details the <br />expenditure of the interest earnings and/or the Water Fund; to approve contract <br />amendments with various consultants as delineated in Attachment A; to approve <br />a contract amendment with M.A. Lindquist for an amount not to exceed an <br />additional $380,000; and to approve a contract amendment with the Ransome <br />Company for an amount not to exceed an additional $368,000. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was taken as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Brozosky, McGovern, Sullivan, and <br /> Mayor Hosterman <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> Mr. Sullivan wanted to understand the costs associated with the bypass road and <br />the issues. He was in favor of proceeding with preliminary design plans and costs <br />associated with reorienting the driving range, to continue discussions with GE about an <br />easement or fee title on its property, and to initiate discussions with the permitting <br />agencies about the GE property. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brozosky believed Council owed it to the community to expend funds to <br />determine what the real costs are that are associated with reorienting the driving range. <br /> <br /> Ms. McGovern would like staff to initiate discussions with the developers of the <br />residential lots near the driving range to find out if they would be willing to contribute <br />towards the costs associated with reorienting the golf course driving range. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 24 03/15/05 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
