<br />will continue into the future due to continued economic growth and limited <br />residential growth as the city approaches build out. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Brozosky, McGovern, Sullivan, Thorne, and <br />Mayor Hosterman <br />None <br />None <br />None <br /> <br />NOES: <br />ABSENT: <br />ABSTAIN: <br /> <br />Ms. McGovern recused herself from discussion of the definition of gross <br />developable acreage. <br /> <br />Mr. Brozosky thought that Council had the right to determine how many houses <br />to approve during the PUD process. He wanted PUD applications to indicate what the <br />number of units would be at the midpoint for total acres vs. what would be allowed <br />minus 25% slopes for informational purposes. <br /> <br />Mayor Hosterman agreed Council has ultimate discretion, but based upon earlier <br />discussion, she supported a motion to table the issue. <br /> <br />Mr. Sullivan understood what the Planning Commission was trying to do, but felt <br />to inject that at this time would undermine the process of negotiation. He felt there was <br />plenty of time to discuss this later, but for now wanted to be silent. <br /> <br />Mr. Brozosky disagreed and felt this was for something in the future and the <br />plans are going ahead before the changes to the General Plan. He wanted to set a <br />policy or guideline that the community does not want acres in the 25% or high slope <br />areas to be included in the developable acres. He believed it was already in other <br />sections of the General Plan. Since the General Plan must be consistent, he felt this <br />should be included in the Land Use element to keep it consistent. The community has <br />told Council it does not want to count the acreage of the hills and Council should do <br />something about it. <br /> <br />It was moved by Mr. Sullivan, seconded by Mayor Hosterman, to table the <br />definition of gross developable acreage for PUD's to enable staff to work with <br />property owners and adjacent neighborhoods to discuss land use options for the <br />area that are usually beneficial to area residents and the property owners, while <br />also maximizing the preservation of open space in the Southeast Hills. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers Sullivan, Thorne, and Mayor Hosterman <br />NOES: Council member Brozosky <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: Councilmember McGovern was recused <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council <br />Special Meeting <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />11/29/05 <br />
