Additionally, staff advertised for the community survey, the upcoming outreach meeting on June <br />22nd, and passed out flyers with a link to the survey and an image of the updated conceptual plan. Staff <br />spoke with approximately 50 people. <br /> <br />Below is a summary of comments regarding the project. <br /> <br />Design Comments <br />1. A 9-year-old said that they really like the new concept plan. <br />2. Pleasanton does not look good at all. The creek should be covered. Clayton and San Ramon are <br />outcompeting Pleasanton as far as aesthetics. <br /> <br />3. Install paving or grass in front of the bandstand. Do not install dirt or decomposed granite as it <br />tracks everywhere and creates a mess. <br /> <br />4. Leave some room in front of the band stand for the crowd to dance. <br />5. Maximize the lawn area. <br />6. Focus on having the correct design rather than the cost of the design. In the end, once the <br />project is built, nobody is going to remember how much it cost, they are just going to remember <br />how successful the design is. Sacrificing the design because of the cost is going to limit the <br />success of the park and is not in the best interest of future park users. <br />
