process. He asked if this was stated anywhere in the draft Phase II Specific Plan or was it a discussion that Council previously had? Mr. Rasmussen said Council had discussed the matter and it was included in past plans but it was not included in the draft Phase II Specific Plan. Mr. Iserson believed the entire area was zoned PUD. He believed it should be clearly stated in the Phase II Specific Plan. Mr. Sullivan said he wanted the policy stated in the Phase II Specific Plan because a future Council could change something from a PUD to something else if it wanted to. Mr. Brozosky referred to page 49 of the Plan and wondered why extra scrutiny on fire sprinkler protection was being done for this parcel as opposed to other parcels. Mr. Rasmussen said he would check with the Fire Marshall for clarification. Mayor Hosterman approved of the Illustrative Site Plan. She liked the wording that Mr. Rasmussen used when referring to a 318-acre arboretum with seven oaklands and plant communities all reflective of indigenous floral in the Tri-Valley area. She liked the idea of the natural water areas and creating a walkable park that would be accessible to people of all ages in the community. Procedurally, she saw this as dovetailing into one plan. She believed Council should continue to maintain flexibility in the Plan and rather than trying to get too specific with different areas of the Illustrative Site Plan map, she preferred leaving it open in its broadest format in order to get through the EIR process which would then answer many questions that Council and the community have previously asked. It was moved by Mr. Sullivan, seconded by Mr. Thorne, to direct staff to inciude modifications to the Preliminary Draft Phase II Specific Plan as made by Council members and to authorize staff to proceed with the formal processing of the Draft Phase II Specific Plan concurrent with the Bernal Community Park Master Plan and the project EIR in accordance with the schedule as outlined in the staff report. Mr. Sullivan agreed with Mayor Hosterman's comments. He noted that final decisions were not being made this evening with regard to the Phase II Specific Plan, as it would continue to go through a lengthy process. If Council did not authorize staff to proceed forward with the Bernal Community Park Master Plan concurrently with the Phase II Specific Plan, he believed Council would not be following the direction of Measure X. Mr. Brozosky did not believe the Bernal Community Park Master Plan should be processed at this time and he could not support the motion. Ms. McGovern asked staff if it believed Council was required to proceed with the Bernal Community Park Master Plan because of Measure X. Mr. Fialho said in his best judgment, yes, Council needed to proceed with the Bernal Community Park Master plan based on the way he thought Measure X was written. Ms. McGovern asked legal counsel if it believed Council was required to proceed with the Bernal Community Park Master Plan because of Measure X. Pleasanton City Council 22 11/01/05 Minutes
