In conclusion, Mr. Merschel indicated that he would delay responding to the list of issues for which staff has requested Commission direction to the next meeting after the neighbors have given their input. Ms. Leslie Howard, 1027 Hancock Court in Ventana Hills, stated that in 1990, the City Council directed that the recommendations of the Citizen Advisory Committee be incorporated into the NSSP, and this included the preservation of rural views as well as a spacious transition between the new development and the existing homes in Ventana Hills. In response to Mr. Merschel's statement that the view of the houses would be gone three years afer the initial planting, she stated that the view would be gone with the houses. Ms. Mazlyce-Jean Dezzutti, 1105 Lund Ranch Road, stated that the impact of hillside development on the entire City of Pleasanton is immense because it will cover the rolling hills with homes. Mr. Ken Czaja, 1141 Lund Ranch Road, stated that the photomontage is deceptive because the pictures do not have any depth perception so that distances that aze supposed to be 20 feet away aze actually only 10 feet. The homes look small but they aze really huge . He suggested that the Commissioners visit the site and see for themselves the impacts the development will have on the site. PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
