Councilmember Thorne indicated he does not want his non-support of Option #3 to indicate he does not appreciate the efforts that staff put into trying to reach a compromise solution. He noted his reason for not supporting #3 is that he is concerned about the costs and the kids that have to walk out into that driveway. Councilmember McGovern stated if you look at Option #3, you are covering that site with asphalt, driveways and parking lots which will not be aesthetically pleasing to the neighbors. She would much rather go with Option #1 and try to keep some greenbelt between Pleasanton Valley Swim Club as well as the mature trees and not jeopardize the licensing of the preschool. She noted her appreciation for the work the City Manager did and he showed true caring by trying to reach a good compromise. Motion: It was m/s by Sullivan/Cook-Kallio to adopted Resolution No. 07-101 approving Option #3 with additional conditions thereby approving a conditional use permit and for design review approval for the expansion of the existing Trinity Lutheran Church consisting of the replacement of the existing temporary modular buildings with the construction of an approximately 8,110-square-foot one-story education building to the east of the existing Church facility; the construction of an approximately 3,108-square-foot multipurpose room addition to be attached to the south of the existing Church facility, fronting Hopyard Road; the expansion of the existing parking lot; and on-site landscaping removal and replanting.

Public Hearing: PUD-85-10-7M, Peter Shutts/Goble Properties -Consider an application for a Planned Unit Development (PUD) major modification and development plan to demolish an existing drive-through bank building and related site improvements and construct an approximately 2,530-square-foot one-story commercial building in its place at the property located at 5765 Valley Avenue. Donna Decker, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development gave the staff report and indicated the applicants propose to demolish the vacant bank building and construct a new commercial building in its place, which would include Peet's Coffee and Tea as one of the tenants. Staff and Planning Commission believe that the project, as conditioned, is well designed and will be compatible with the surrounding area. The applicants are in agreement with the Planning Commission's recommended conditions of approval. Staff believes the project will be a positive change to this underutilized site. The project's proposed uses, building and site design, as proposed and conditioned, are appropriate for the subject site and the surrounding area, conforms to the purposes of the PUD Ordinance, and merits a favorable decision by the Council.
