<br />Mr. Fialho stated the City has entered into a good faith negotiation with the County. The <br />proposal indicates 800 units. The number of units is at Council's discretion. <br /> <br />Mr. Brozosky inquired if the Stone ridge extension were removed from the General Plan, <br />if the land would return back to the SPA and if the City decided to extend Stoneridge, if the land <br />would be returned back to the City. <br /> <br />Mr. Roush stated that detail would be addressed in the additional document. <br /> <br />Mayor Hosterman invited public comments. <br /> <br />Doug Reynolds, Vulcan Materials Company, voiced his concern regarding EI Charro <br />Road and how the current MOU under consideration goes far beyond the limited purpose <br />originally described by the City and that it fails to recognize the City's General Plan. He <br />believes the MOU has not had the proper CEQA review and other applicable laws. He further <br />believes the MOU is an apparent attempt to limit in advance the proper analysis and mitigation <br />for traffic impacts that must include the consideration of the extension of Stone ridge Drive <br />whether or not the project builds the extension. <br /> <br />Dan Faustina, a Pleasanton resident, applauded the Council's efforts with regards to the <br />Staples Ranch proposal and encouraged Council to approve the item. He believes the MOU is <br />a step in the right direction and that the City has found a compromise that will benefit all citizens <br />of Pleasanton. He further believed the inclusion of an emergency vehicle access road on the <br />property was needed. <br /> <br />Brett Wayne a Livermore resident and member of an advocacy group that supports the <br />Livermore Airport, stated the City needs to reconsider the senior housing component of the <br />development. He stated the reason the land is inexpensive is because it is at the end of the <br />airport runway. The City had an obligation to represent residents as well as future residents and <br />placing 1000 residents closer to the airport and in an area that is already complaining is a recipe <br />for conflict. He further encouraged the City to reconsider the senior housing component of the <br />proposal. <br /> <br />Mr. Brozosky asked how far way the airport protection zone was from the proposed <br />senior housing. <br /> <br />Mr. Fialho responded that the proposed continuing care facility is outside of the airport <br />protection zone. <br /> <br />Kevin Ryan a Pleasanton resident voiced his concern regarding the development of the <br />senior housing at Staples Ranch near the Livermore airport. <br /> <br />Bjorn Jensen a Pleasanton resident voiced his concern on behalf of the households on <br />Vermont Place. He stated that the previous development plans included a provision to <br />straighten the property line and move it approximately 19 feet. He indicated that he has not <br />seen this provision as an option and wanted to go on record to request this provision be <br />included in the development. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council <br />Minutes <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br />04/18/06 <br />
