~, <br />April ~, 208 <br />Cherie Keane <br />417 Sycamore ltd <br />Pleasanton, CA 94566 <br />_-- ___: _Jann -~RQCfi~'s_l~te~age_ <br />City Council Members; <br />1VIy niarne is Cherie Keane artd I Iive 3 houses west of Jenny Roche. To enter my <br />driveway I must make a right hand tug izt front of Jenny's house. In fact, for a short <br />distance we share a coxnman private drive. <br />Prior to Jatuay purchasing her home, the property was in cl,isrepair. The piece of land <br />direc#ly adjacent to the private drive was always filled with weeds and was quite <br />1Q~equently used as ~fty xnaintcnance parking and whoever parking. In fact, the entire <br />property showed it's vast age and lack of care. <br />Since Jenny. has beexx my ncighbox the ta'ansforrnation between then and notiv is <br />ixrunneasurable. ],vot only has she completely rebuilt the home but she has spared no <br />expense landscaping her property. She has taken great care in tastefully beautifying not <br />only her property but that of the neighborhood as well. As a close neighbor I am very <br />gratoful for hei hard work and dedication to detail. <br />Una of the improvements to the property was replacing the old wooden tank with $ new <br />one. In doing so the tank moved, but not enough to make the controversy it has become. <br />As I am sure the council knows quite well the ITappy Valley, as beautiful as it is; camas <br />with rnany'issues. Conventional homes try to live next to farms and ranches; animals. <br />~'ension grows as two different lifestyles try to live togethex. In every eras, but I believe <br />in the Nappy Valley especially, people need to be more tolerant. If one is going to move <br />next door to a property tk~at has animals, no eity water ctc. then things like water tanks <br />will exist ota the property. <br />.~4,s far ag I am concerned, the new water tank js an improvement to tlae property and does <br />not adversely a#3fect the neighbors in its rev spot. Concerning Diamond Court; the water <br />tank became more visible with the replacement of the old tivooden fence with a wire <br />fence, net with the movement ofthe water tank. If the water tank was that muc1~ of a <br />concern Diamaztd Court should have rcpla,ced the fence with a like wooden one. <br />~'hax~k you, <br />Cherie Keane <br />
