park is created as well as a better habitat for the animals there. She questioned if this would be discussed at some point. City Manager Fialho said assuming the Council approves the Specific Plan, individual PUD's will come forward and the Council will address each project on a case-by-case basis and identify specific conditions you would apply to the project. He said the Council has this flexibility as well as with the other projects like the auto mall, where the Council may not want to include two-story parking up above the dealerships. Councilmember McGovern questioned whether Option 3 includes a 4-lane highway or looking at the 2-lane highway option. Councilmember McGovern referred to the health risk assessment to be done to look at air pollutants by the freeway. In other reports, there were at least three other pollutants over the BAAOMD threshold of 80 lbs. and she hoped to also look at those in the survey because the ice rink adds to those. She hoped the survey will allow seniors to be able to sit outside, have patios, etc., because that is an ultimate mitigation if levels are too high. Vice Mayor Cook-Kallio said Option 3 does not mention specifically whether or not it is 2 or 4 lane, but her intention would be to have both bridges built at the same time. City Manager Fialho said the build out would be 4 lanes and the City would need to do additional modeling to determine whether a 2-lane configuration actually works. Councilmember Thorne said his preference would be either a 2 or 4 lane road. Councilmember Sullivan questioned how the extension relates to other regional improvements and regional framework policy. Vice-Mayor Cook-Kallio said the discussion has to do with opening EI Charro, Dublin Blvd., and this is one of the things that will cause Stoneridge to be effective. If the City were to build it tomorrow, Dublin Blvd. would be ready to open in 2011 or 2012, and then EI Charro would also be done. She hoped that in discussions with regional partners, this will also be looked at as being part of the regional framework to encourage the full funding of SR 84, which she recognizes neither the County or City have full control over funding. She would hope to use that regional discussion to show good faith to make sure SR 84 stays where it is or moves up, and this could be used with State Assembly Members and Senators. Councilmember Sullivan questioned whether we will use our General Plan language about the regional framework. Vice Mayor Cook-Kallio said there is nothing in the option that discusses that. To her, this is a policy statement to start as soon as possible with regional discussions. Councilmember McGovern said the water is already listed as impaired by Diazinon, and asked that this be prohibited and not just limited. City Manager Fialho said staff has determined it can be prohibited as part of the project approval. Councilmember McGovern said in reading conditions of approval, there have been changes with CLC, the development agreement and the growth management ordinance will not be in place for this development. Mr. Roush said there is nothing to prohibit the Council when the development is presented from coming up with a construction schedule amenable to the Council. Under the growth management ordinance, it locked it into no more than 350 citywide, including only 150 for that particular project. The development agreement will provide flexibility to allow the project to build out faster if they need to, rather than be limited by the growth management ordinance. It does not remove the Council's ability to phase it. City Manager Fialho said the other consideration is that both Measure PP and OO cause the Council to provide direction on the number of units to be City Council Minutes Page 14 of 17 February 24, 2009
